Playing Splinter Cell Conviction at the minute. It was on sale a week or so ago on XBLA. It wasn't the cheapest price in the world, but seeing as I had nabbed some free MS points I decided to give it a whirl. I used to hate stealth games, so this was my first SC and I'm loving it to be honest. Oblivion was the game that got me into being stealthy in games, and I love it now. This game is starting to look dated, but still good fun watching the guards and plotting a course through the levels. It has certainly piqued my interest for the next in the series. Just a shame Micheal Ironside isn't doing the voice work any more. |

I'm playing Dragons Dogma ATM and finding it waaaay more fun than Dragon Age 2 which wasn't even worth the 98p I paid for it. |

Dragons Dogma is fantastic, but does get a little repetitive because of a lack of easy fast travel. Use my pawn and send me a nice gift back with her when she is done

Started playing Lego: Lord of the Rings and it's bloody fantastic. Best Lego game to date by quite some way I think. It still has touches of humour, but is a little more serious, and features voice acting from the movies. It also now has an over world of sorts so that you can go exploring looking for secrets etc. And it looks pretty damned nice I have to say. There is some screen tearing once in a while, but the trade off is a seamless world as you travel to each location. There are sections that load in when you come to story specific parts, but the over world so far has been one open area from the Hobbits village (it's name escapes me) to Rivendell. It isn't huge by any means, but is plenty large enough to feel like you can go find hidden stuff. Really enjoying it, and at £20 there is a lot of game here for your money. |

I had to abandon Dragons Dogma as the lack of fast travel got REALLY old. Got Far Cry 3 for Crimbo as it received some AMAZING reviews....so far it's enjoyable, but not amazing IMHO....it sounds dumb, but nothing's as good as Skyrim. |

You do eventually get a form of fast travel in Dragons Dogma. But to be honest, once you start to open up the other character classes and abilities, you become a bad ass and combat is so good that it isn't too big of a deal. |

Been playing Half Life 2 - Espiode 1/2 on PS3. Finished Ep 1, halfway through Ep2. Not as bad as I remembered. |

I need to get back to Mass Effect 3 and Zombi U.... but every time I try to play anything, Little Zai insists on playing the Pikmin game on Nintendoland. To fair, it was fun playing through it with him on co-op, until we finished it and he wanted to start again from the beginning. |

Anyone else been annoyed by the involuntary installation of SingStar on the PS3 XMB after the latest update? I'd like to remove it but can't, some people are incensed by it, there's even a Facebook page against it! I must say I think they have a nerve installing an icon without your consent, but is there really anything in that as bad as what you get every time you sign in to XBL and get bombarded with ads for EVERYbloodyTHING? Been playing Epic Mickey 2: The Power of 2 - Epically weird, old-Disney-centric and bad-camera hindered. Trying to build on the inexplicable popularity of the Wii version they made it Move compatible, but I found it just painful to play that way, and spent as much time fighting with the camera and the controls as I did with the surprisngly nasty enemies (it's a "U"). You can play split screen co-op, but honestly, who'd want to? Frankly it's all rather confusng and a bit of a yawn; buy the Jak and Daxter or Ratchet & Clank HD collections, they're much better, exciting to play and you get three games for the price of one. Jak and Daxter HD - Holy CRAP they made games tough 11 years ago. No forgiveness, no checkpoints, (only one mid level on the longest ones), constant traps and leaps of faith (as the camera is so unfriendly) and some really tough time constraints on races/searches etc. I haven't shouted at a game so much in ohh, about 11 years, and am enjoying it intensely. 1 (The Precursor Legacy) is tough (I 100%-ed it this time, never did back in the noughties), 2 (Renegade) is even bad-asseder...I seem to remember 3 (lots of desert buggy racing/exploring I think) being a bit more forgiving, but I haven't started that yet. Far Cry 3 - Agree with Juz about this (blimey that's 2 years running!), good but not truly great, lots of nice stuff technically and freedom, but lacks those "wow" moments, and the tearing is horrible. It needed a tank or a helicopter or something, or maybe just a proper campaign co-op mode, the 2-4 player co-op missions are okay and the multiplayer is playable but shallow and neither lasted me long. Will undoubtedly get the 1000Gs on it though, it keeps drawing me back. Haven't even tried the map editor yet, and I spent hours fiddling around with it on the previous games (and the map editor). |

Stop agreeing with me!!!! Well, I'm playing Medal of Honor Bumfighter, and I think it's actually pretty good. Yeah, it's generic, but there's some real SOLIDITY to the graphics in this game (I've installed the "HD pack" bullshit). I have 007 Legends (anther game that's had shitty reviews), and F1 2012 queuing up too. |
