A few weeks ago I finished up Darksiders. I was really surprised by that game, the combat was great, the upgrades were addicting and it was genuinely fun, though some of the puzzles were a little annoying. The story was kind of a mess, but the ending was pretty epic. Looking forward to playing the sequel.
Last week I finished Zelda Skyward Sword. I think it may be my all-time favorite Zelda game. It just gets so much stuff right. The motion control swordplay is far more fun than just button pressing. I found fighting standard enemies to be really enjoyable and satisfying. The items are used in creative ways and are cleverly worked into puzzles throughout the game, so you're constantly using everything in your inventory to traverse the dungeons. I put nearly 60 hours into the quest and felt extremely satisfied by the time it was over. My only real gripe would be returning to areas you've beaten and Girahim, the main villain. Both him and fights with him were annoying.
