What Next?
LOTR should finish up tonight. I may be able to do a couple hours of achievement mop up, but I expect to be through the campaign tonight.
What should I move on to next? The massive backlog, or take it kind of piecemeal with Lego Pirates, Otomedius Excellent and light stuff like that? I guess I could do the MW3 campaign, but I still need to finish up the MW2 campaign.
I put in Skylanders for one of the kids last night. He absolutely loves it. From my perspective, the whole portal and toys is unnecessary, but I guess it brings something for the kids. It is harrowing watching him try to solve puzzles by moving blocks around. I need to stop being an armchair player and just let him do his thing. I find myself getting frustrated when he doesn't destroy every last barrel or explore an area to it's fullest. I thought about going in behind him and getting the things he misses in a chapter, but decided that I would leave that for him to discover once he gets the hang of the game.
