I’m currently sitting here waiting for my Windows Media Center 7 setup to complete and thought I’d do a quick little update about what’s been going on recently.

In all honesty, not a lot. I’ve had the last three days off of work because it was my Birthday on Wednesday. I’ve been mainly chilling here and playing a load of Battlefield: Bad Company 2. I’ve also got a PC Wireless Receive for my XBox 360 controllers (courtesy of Errkal), so I can now finally play the copy of DIRT2 that came with my graphics card late last year.

I’m enjoying this game so far, I prefer the Rally and Rallycross sections over the big truck thingos (I can’t think for the life of me what they’re called!) Of course, the game is not without its flaws. The two main issues I have so far is the navigator in the Rallies is a bit slow to let you know about crucial details. A nice example of this is *SMASH!* hairpin to the left, take it slow… YOU THINK?! Also, the rewind function is pretty useless in comparison to Forza 3′s. In Forza you can rewind to a comfortable distance before your crash, but in DIRT2 I find myself only being able to rewind to half way through my crash. Pretty lame.

Ooh! I’ve also got Red Dead Redemption, I haven’t played it yet but expect to hear more about my Wild West shenanigans here shortly.
