At first I thought it might be what I was looking for in a Destroy All Humans reboot, except that you were playing as the Men In Black. I was excited. Then I saw some gameplay later on and it looked more like Brothers in Arms, a third-person squad-based strategy shooter. I was baffled. They could've gone L.A. Noire with it. That would've been cool.
First person dungeon crawls like Wizardry (turn-based battles) but with good graphics and sound. They let you draw the maps on the bottom screen like you would on graph paper for a really old school RPG. They're usually challenging and very long games but the latest entry, Etrian Odyssey Untold: Millenium Girl, can be played in a story mode with anime cut scenes on a very easy setting. It's still a long game though. I've put in almost 50 hours into EOU already and I don't think I'm anywhere near an ending. Not that I want one. I never get tired of this game.
I wonder what Rocksteady is doing instead of Batman games right now. I looked around and I've found nothing. It's like they just croaked after doing Arkham City.
I thought about calling it "Monday Game Day, Kinda Lame Day", but decided that would be too negative. It was only a little bit lame, the game time being so brief this week.
I wish is it was a Monkey Game Day though. I'd be playing, then throwing stuff around the room, climbing the walls, scratching my... Oh never mind.
It's always been that way. Maybe it's just old habits. We've been playing games together for our whole lives and almost never in different places. I actually get pretty discouraged about gaming in general if I can't play in person with someone. I just can't see staying at home in from of a TV and console all day long unless someone else is there too making it a party.
Yea, it got ripped by critics, 48 on Metacritic right now for the 360 version. I watched my friend play and he seemed to be ok with it. I heard the AI is dumb as bricks. It looked ok visually I thought.
One day, I'll get to Skyrim. One day.
Please do. I want to hear a good rant on something. Beyond Two Souls seems like a good one to rant about because I'm sure it's going to be the critic's darling, and I'll hear tons of "it's an experience you don't want to miss" on some of the podcasts I listen to (I'm talking to you Official Playstation Blogcast!).
I am never ever holding the Wii Remote up to my ear after seeing that trailer.
Looks like a good scary game.
Oh man, I've never seen that Hitler in New York vid. Incredible!
I did have Wolfenstein New Order on preorder, but now it doesn't have a firm release date, so I removed it. Also, since it's made for the new systems, I kind of would like to play it there instead of on the 360. So, it'll be all tied up with whether I get an Xbox One or not. The game is looking great so far though. I'm excited.
