Merry Christmas LJ peeps! I've more or less moved over to Facebook, so this is kinda empty. So aside from the big news (re: I'm a fiancé!) I'd like to give my summary about Doctor Who: The End of Time: Part 1

( Spoilers: Dr. Who End of Time pt 1 )

I may be falling behind with some comments on stuff I've sampled lately, so here in one big downloadable, nano-sized Chunk is:

( Borderlands, Dragon Age: Origins, Assassins Creed 2, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, LittleBigPlanet PSP, Divinity 2 (May be some spoilers) )

I had a huge epic moan planned for these 3 games, and even half written, but decided to streamline once more to just the bits you may actually care about

Continuing my ever present brain-dump of miserable games I've sampled over the last period of time since I last updated. Today we'll be looking at:

There's a niggling issue I've had with Sandbox games ever since I played Jak 2: Renagade. Something that continued to niggle me through all the GTAs to the level of outright hatred, and even to this day with Mercenaries, InFamous, Saints Row and recently the latest Red Faction still bothers me ( Read more... )

Star Ocean is good, Red Faction is ok but aside from the (Incredibly fun) destructable building technology there's nothing you haven't played before. Sims 3 is pretty much Sims 2 but shinier ( Read more... )
