Recently played list-o-stuffs.
Just Cause 2. A great game engine looking for a game. Fun for an hour but after that you've seen everything and are cursed to repeat it for 25 hours (to finish the story) and 60 (to max it out if you can be cunted with such things).
Geometry Wars 2. Back on the playlist thanks to a recent bit of interest after the Microsoft deal of the week. Finally got round to putting some time into Sequence. It's fiendish but gloriously good fun. Best game on XBLA.
Fable 2. Late to this party, eh? Am at least ten hours in (maybe twenty - time flies when blardyblahblah). Great RPG elements without the fucking statistical HELL that goes with the genre. Combat's good, story is genuinely interesting and the voice acting is superb. One of the funniest games I've played.
Final Fight/Magic Sword. Two MAME roms with better music and solid online co-op. 800M$P may seem cheap, I reckon it's a tad pricey but it's Final Fight and that's good enough for me. More double-packs please, Capcom.
Check out the PEOWW review and then the comments and then the click-thru link to Lifestyle Gamer's hilarious 'I'm not a fanboy but here's something fanboyish written by a fanboy' article. Or actually don't as it's proper shit. As ever, I quote the big man Ashens "only an idiot gets attached to his purchases".
Tomorrow: do I bother with Splinter Cell seeing as how the last two games were shit and this has a stupid name (ConViction)?
