Finished Tomb Raider

I finished Tomb Raider: Underworld earlier today. It
was enjoyable, and the story was very interesting. My
only gripe about the game is the controls weren’t all
that great. There’s just some games that don’t
translate all that well over to the Wii controls.
Once I was finished with Tomb Raider I collected all of the games for the Wii and my Nintendo DS that I have finished, and I took a trip up to GameStop to trade them in for store credit. I currently have a little over $250 in store credit. GameStop was crowded, so I didn’t bother spending time looking for a new game. I figure I can survive on Guitar Hero: World Tour for a while. I’ve finished the game, on Medium, but I haven’t achieved 100% on all the songs.
I also recently finished another book, “Plague Ship”, by Clive Cussler and Jack Du Brul.
Clive Cussler is the author of the Dirk Pitt series of books I used to read. Once the Dirk Pitt series finished he branched out into a series of books with Jack DuBrul which encompass the “Oregon Files”, named after the ship that the characters reside on. He also started a series with Paul Kamprecos which is the “Kurt Austin” adventures. He recently teamed up with his son, Dirk Cussler to pen the new Dirk Pitt series, which is about Dirk Pitt Jr, the son of Dirk Pitt from the original books. All of these have a couple things in common: they take place around water, they have the over the top, taking over the world bad guys, and they are meant more for a fun read that anything else. I don’t know why, but I’ve found that I enjoy these stories. Plague Ship ranks as one of my favorites from the Oregon Files series.
