So many games have came out in the last month/weeks! Too many to play! I ended up buying 6 games within a week. Here’s a list and comments for each game.
Gears of War 2
I played through a bit, not completed it yet but it’s an improvement from the original for definite. I like the whole ‘if you’re not blown into pieces but died, you can crawl about till an NPC revives you’ deal, means when I crazily go out trying to chainsaw a legion of locust and get shot, I can still carry on once revived.
I’m not a huge Gears fan, ironic considering I use the original for machinima but still, I’ll play it once I can be bothered.
Left 4 Dead
Valve… or companies under supervision of Valve… make some of the best SP and MP fps games ever. Left 4 Dead is continuing the trend and from the demo I played, it’s truly amazing. You basically have to stick it on the hardest setting to really get the best feeling from the game. To make it even more fun, try and sabotage your team as much as possible as Rob shown Zach, Ben and I (shoot the car with the alarm right Rob?).
Fallout 3 and Farcry 2
I bought them through Steam but I haven’t touched them yet, they seem like games which I need to spend a bit of time with, so when I can be bothered I’ll play them. Anyone got any comments on these?
Wrath of the Lich King
Yes.. I got a World of Warcraft expansion, but here’s the thing, I don’t get addicted. I play them for the quests and new shiz and eventually I get bored like I always do. But I gotta say, I’m really enjoying the whole Death Knight character, he’s powerful and got a bunch of cool equipment and started at level 55! How cool is that for a starter character.
Mirrors Edge
I love the whole idea behind this, first person free running. They really pulled off the feel of a fit woman running around being chased by trigger happy cops and as a game, it’s quite fun. Fighting the cops could be so much better though, you have barely any variety of attacks and trying to take a weapon away is really frustrating.
Anyway, anyone playing any of these and what’s ya comments?
