Currently I have two more exams to go before I finish this year at AU. This isnt a good thing, as there are many, many games available to play at the moment, and all the new releases are so tasty...

I am lucky enough to work at a gaming venue, so get a lot of hands on with stuff before release and for free... I have to say that its effecting my Uni work.

Some how I have to juggle a maths exam on saturday (yes, saturday morning, a time reserved for hangovers and nothing else...), completing Fable 2 to 100% (so so close...), finding some time to start Gears Of War 2 and then think about my next exam on monday (Physics.... woohoo!).

Some of you may suggest waiting until the exams are over, but I've tried, and its just not going to happen.

Guitar Hero World Tour will also be a problem. I've had a good thrash on it so far, and I have to say its a huge improvement on GH3, if such a thing is possible. Noticeable differences include making hammer-ons that bit more acurate, so you dont just mash the key-pad, and the string-linked slide parts are a smooth addition to take the game that small step further into awesomeness. The song list is jam packed full of everything as well. I can't get enough of the Mars Volta track, and La Bamba by Los Lobos. La Bamba is fairly tricky (for me). For those who will be playing Bass Guitar, a new 6th note has been introduced, which is a strum of nothing (ie no buttons pressed). This sounds fairly simple, but have you seen System of a Down's BYOB on expert!? Its bass rayp. I couldnt handle it, I had to turn the difficulty down to hard :(

Welll.... better get on with that Calculus....
