Played some Arkham Horror with the usual suspects tonight. Good game, now I can finally say I've fulfilled my dream of slaying Cthulu! Things weren't looking so good as there was no way we were going to stop him from awakening. But he did, and we totally kicked his ass, and not by the skin of our teeth thing. ( cut for geekiness )

DW7 stuff: So, I'm almost done do everything there is to do, barring the DLC stuff I'll hopefully be able to get my hands on once the PSN is back up. Beaten all four stories, gotten all the weapons, unlocked all the weapon seals, beaten all the non-character specific stages in Conquest mode. I've maxed the bonds and gotten all the skills for all the Wei and Jin at least. I haven't unlocked everyone yet though- I still haven't played Ma Dai, Liu Shan, Bao Sanniang, Zhang Jiao, Dong Zhou or Meng Huo. But that's just six characters left to play. Haven't maxed anyone out yet, but I think I'm close with my three favorite Wei- Xiahou Dun, Zhang Liao, and Xu Huang. But even then, I think I still have a ways to go.

So IGN had a top 100 comic book villains list a couple of years ago, so this year they have their top 100 comic book heroes list. Of course, they do have to name check such popular series not from Marvel or DC, like Ex Machina, Y the Last Man, Invincible, and the Walking Dead (both Michonne and Rick are on here). But here's the top 10:

10) Daredevil
9) The Hulk
8) Flash (Wally West)
7) Green Lantern (Hal Jordan)
6) Captain America
5) Wonder Woman
4) Wolverine
3) Spiderman
2) Batman
1) Superman

I wonder if they made sure to make the top 10 50/50 Marvel/DC so it wouldn't seem like the list is favoring one company or the other. In any case, heh, it seems a lot of people were pissed that Superman is number 1 over Batman.
