Well finally finished inFamous yesterday as the good guy and what a brilliant ending it was. I enjoyed the comic style of presenting the story but everything that happened until the end i could see coming. The end however totally took me by surprise and now I can't wait to go and play as an evil character.
Also finished Uncharted as well. only picked it up last week and found it absolutely brilliant. The graphics and gameplay were amazing and coupled with a good story and great lead character meant that I had to take breaks of inFamous. Can't wait for the second one now!
Currently also cranking through Street Fighter 4, although I suck at it, and also Little Big Planet which is brilliant. On the 360 also playing the amazing GH: Metallica and Left 4 Dead which are both awesome.
In news other than games went to see Terminator Salvation on the weekend and thoroughly enjoyed it. As an action film it was great with great action scenes and a good story which surprised me! Was it worth waiting 20 years to finally see the epic future battle, probably not but as a film in its own right I thought it was a very entertaining film.
Well after the 3 big press conferences I have to say Microsoft and Sony absolutely hammered Nintendo! I mean don't get me from I know the new Mario Galaxy will outsell everything Sony and Miscrosoft will put out but it seems they are resting on their back catalogue.
I think it was a draw between Sony and Microsoft as the exclusives cancel each other out. MAG, Uncharted 2 and God of War 3 were my favourites for Sony and for MS Halo: Reach, Splinter Cell Conviction and L4D 2. I have both consoles so I'm glad I don't have to pick and choose between them. Natal and Sony's motion sensor were both great for different reasons; Natal will be awesome for fun 'games' and to browse the dashboard but I can't see it working with FPS or RPGs. Sony's motion sensor is cool and will be fun to play with FPS and would be amazing to play Legolas in a new LOTR game! Plus seeing the genius Hideo Kojima was awesome. MGS for the 360 and PSP = awesome!!!
Overall seeing Assassin's Creed 2 was the highlight of the conferences closely followed by the reinvented Splinter Cell Conviction.

Mixed opinions
(X360)
Ive read most of peoples reviews on this game and the 'video' review and agree and disagree at the same time! I think the overall concept of Kane and Lynch is very good however when it gets down to it its so hard to 'like' the main characters in this ...

OK

This is one of the first games I bought without reading or watching a review! It was purely on the title (I had just watched 300 at the time!!!). Was a little disappointed when I saw the initial graphics - below the bar set by Battle For Middle-Earth 2 (which ...

If there is only 1 game on the xbox 360 that you own it must be GOW! I have spent countless hours annihilating the locust horde. My first impression of the game was that it looked superb. The graphics on the game are amazing with the dark lighting and ruined ...

Too addictive!
(PC)
Having got this game for Christmas years ago, I became completely hooked and lived for the release of the expansion packs! Having complete control over characters appearence, personalties, accomodations and every aspect of their lives means that there are endless possibilities and therefore endless hours to be wasted playing! This ...

A threat to my degree......
(PC)
Having been a massive Sims fan since the release of The Sims, I was slightly dubious when they announced a second version, as I didn't see the need. However, after playing it, I took back my words, because the game is fantastic! There's much more for the player to do, ...
