My Xbox is still getting repaired which means I am extremely bored. I am eagerly awaiting Giant Bomb TGS coverage jus to give me some videos to watch or podcasts to listen to. I am hoping for more information on the Halo 3 thing and a release date for the NXE finally. AHHHHHHHHH so Bored!
Not sure if i spelt bordem right but i dont care. Well my 360 is still down and something i have really noticed is instead of turning on my xbox each day and hoping theres a surprise like the new dashboard. I just watch videos like the new Halo trailer and sit here going please god dont happen in the next few weeks please i dont want to miss a gaming event because of my boxes ill health. You may also not here from me for a while unless i complete command and conquer 3 soon.
Its finally happened just over a year into my 360 career it has finally died a death in a glow of red. I have already sent off for its own little xbox coffin before being sent of to the big repair man in the sky. I am annoyed i have only had a few days of star wars and i could miss the new dashboard launch but at least it should be healthy for the holiday season.
Right about 1 week ago several reviews came up for star wars the force unleashed and to sum them up 3 Stars. This game that i had been anticipating for a long time was coming up average but still I am an extreme star wars nerd and so bought the game day 1. I Love this game. I can see exactly where the reviewers were coming from and would agree completely but for me the Oh Snap moments make up for it. I have been playing the game non stop and with some frustrating boss battles and i think i am about half way through. It has been so long since i have played a decent star wars game and wielding my cutomisable lightsaber and throwing storm troopers through windows really gets me singing that john williams score and wishing i could throw my physics teacher around without anyone knowing it was me. My review will be up shortly i hope and maybe this will be the first respectable game i will get 1000 gamerscore after all i wouldnt be a true star wars fan if i didnt try.
So i have just picked up a copy of cnc3 finally and so far im loving it my laptop handles the highest graphics smoothly and i have forgot how satisfying it is to march and unstoppably large force through the enemies bases laughing as i go.
So just made it past my 18th birthday and got myself a shiny new laptop so i think i may finally pick up a copy of command and conquer 3 after getting a bit bored with the one mission on the demo and i might end up getting red alert 3 as well when that comes out.
I have just picked up a free copy of alone in the dark and i have played the first act. So far everything Ryan said on the podcast stands up. This game seems to have a lot of ambition but the controls feel clunky and your never sure what to do i have already made a fire extinguisher float in mid air when trying to get it up a floor and stop and fire from burning me alive. I will stick it through and expect a review up soonish.
Right i have an Xbox 360 and i made the most sensible decision when buy this second console to join my Wii. Most of my friends have done the same and stick by it which i also do. However, i really think the PS3 is coming along well Blu Ray has won and with Metal Gear now out and Little Big Planet which looks amazing coming i am questioning my 360's live span. Sure the game I am most looking forward to is a 360 exclusive but also a sequel we have Gears 2, Fallout 3 and Fable 2 all i want from microsoft is a new Title that is going to make people have a new argument after Halo 3 to own this console. There is still nothing that makes me outright want a PS3 but if Microsoft dont rise to the occasion instead of trying to get your little sister to play i think many people will make the transfer just a bit down the line.
So along with most other people I have downloaded bionic commando rearmed from XBLA and think that the game is awesome although i am finding it difficult mock me if you will. This game is exactly what i wanted from an XBLA game and i am sure i will be playing it for a long time. Also Force Unleashed demo is up and as a huge Star Wars nerd I am loving it and cant wait for the final game if you havnt checked out the demo i recommend it. Over and Out
So over here summer holidays are into full swing the only issue i have with this is the release schedule is looking dry till september.I must have just spent an hour or two flicking from game to game on my 360 and i am starting to wonder what i am going to occupy myself with all summer. Money is tight so i can only really afford one cheap game which means it will probably be rubbish. All I want readers is one good game to last me the summer because this is when i need a blockbuster game not two weeks before christmas i have other things to do then mainly christmas preperation.
