Watched Watchmen today - really fucking good film. Visceral action, a good plot, very good characters.

I especially love it because I've never read the comic book (I hate comic books) so it was pretty much all a surprise to me. My one problem with it was the end was far too expositiony. It could have easily have had ten minutes lopped off it.


I've also been playing too much Dawn of War 2 (co-op campaign is fun) and Far Cry 2. Playing that whilst your girlfriend watches series 1 of Gilmore Girls downstairs is slightly surreal.

Also, the Left 4 Dead DLC has been detailed. It's a mixed bag. Yes, we get the two other campaign maps for versus, that's nice. The least they could do really....

The more interesting thing comes in the form of survivor mode. There are a bunch of maps from previous campaigns and one custom made one. It sounds like a blast - especially as they don't expect survivors to last more than five minutes. I can see that one going down with my little Left 4 Dead posse (which at the moment consists of myself, my brother and two of my friends) who occasionally hanker for bite size gameplay rather than the epic nature of the hour long campaigns.

So yeah, been a good day really. The theory is the DLC should be out before the end of April, which is also the time the new Riddick game should be out. HUZZAH!
