Nottingham Spoils

Just got back from a weekend in Nottingham! I'm slightly sad that I didn't get to see the video game museum thing they have there, but Emily and I had a pleasant enough time, and also bought some games from the local CeX:

• Kingdom Under Fire: Circle of Doom (360) - don't know much about this one, other than that the series is well-respected
• Mass Effect 3 (360) - for when I get round to finishing 2
• Shadows of the Damned (PS3) - Emily was interested in it
• History - Great Battles Medieval (PS3) - Not sure how a strategy game will play on a gamepad, but I'll give it a try
• Romance of the Three Kingdoms VIII (PS2) - bit of a jump from 4 to 8, but I'm sure I'll enjoy it
• Rise to Honour (PS2) - an action marital arts thing starring Jet Li, could be fun
• Astonishia Story (PSP) - an action RPG, hopefully it's good

Aside from that, life has been progressing at a stately pace. I still have plenty of games to talk about in my queue, but progress has been slow on my own creation. No speedrunning news; Ultima II still bugs me, and El Shaddai is in the back of my mind.
