Hey all my fellow Dtoid community members. I hope you've all had a good weekend. I ended up celebrating Halloween a week early this Friday night. I dressed up as Rorschach from Watchmen and my girlfriend dressed up as a forest fairy. I have to admit that both of our costumes looked extremely awesome. I plan on posting pictures from the part sometime this week, so be on the look out for them.

I spent most of the week playing Uncharted 2 and loving it. It has some of the best multiplayer, if not the best, I've played all year. I just can't seem to put the controller down. You should check out my official review over at Gamer Limit if you get a chance.

This week I'll be putting all my time and effort into Borderlands on the PC. I have been really excited to play this for a while, and after hearing a lot of people rave about it, I'm ready to dive in head first. I should have a review posted for the game by sometimes next weekend, assuming all goes according to plan.

So I'm curious as to what all of you plan on dressing up as for Halloween. Feel free to share in the comments. :-)

Now onto your regularly scheduled weekend cblog recaps ...

I like that dragon pic!

... and on Halloween I'll just be dressed as me... handing out candy to the little one's in our neighborhood and doing the old lady thing of guessing what they're dressed as telling them how cute they are! :)

Must have mistaken Destructoid for a nice place on the Internet. Nope, just another hostile popularity contest. I guess it's like a videogame; make too many mistakes and it's game over.

There are many reasons why I don't blog often. Blogs and forums are different. That Blog was for a forum thread.

And don't get sad, you at least got some atention, for me, a new one here it's difficult to get some atention, but I don't give up.

And I love this guys whitout a reason.

As always great recap, cheers for you patience Silverdragon! ^^

If I had any idea how to make a Rorschach mask or find one for cheap, I'd so go as him. But I don't, so if I do out, I'll probably go out as Death or something, I still have this plastic scythe hidden in my basement somewhere. I gotta find a robe to go with it, though.

Recaps are still rad.

Well, I at least got my other Nothing is Sacred post to get on on here. But it really doesn't matter because the "bad" post is isolated from the rest. Now, back to hate comments!

Oh, and by the by, I now do understand the importance of the Forums. I posted and Technophile and Niero helped me with my server issue. So, I learned that lesson. So everybody can shut up about forums now.

Thanks!

I’ll be dressing up in a blanket and hot water bottle for Halloween as I have caught a very bad cold. And I’ll be coughing on all the sweets I give out because I’m very bitter about it.
