Games I got on Black Friday weekend
By jaycrockett 2 Comments
Thursday Night: Walmart: LA Noir - $10
Playing LA Noir now, not quite as good as I'd hoped, but still enjoying it. Between 3-4 stars right now.
I am somewhere in the homicide cases, and I put it down. The story has gotten interesting. But the sheen on the gameplay has really worn off. It seems pretty shallow now. The open world driving seems pretty pointless.
Cyber Monday: XBox.com: Forza Horizon - $15, Rage $10, Gears 3 $10
Rage: I kept going back to this. I understand in theory why this game should be generic and dumb. But in practice it's just super fun. The vehicle stuff is just super fun. The shooting levels are a bit too long, but they are still really enjoyable. I will finish this game. After last Friday I really didn't want to be looking down the barrel of a gun. But I'll get back to it eventually.
Forza Horizon: played a good bit of this and sorry, Jeff, not a 5. It's Forza, and I really like Forza. But the whole setting is just bland. No crashing or even damage is unfortunate. Will play in spurts.
Haven't cracked open Gears 3 yet.
