If you look at the calendar you will notice I haven’t kept my blog updates very well at all. So here’s a quick rundown of the games I’ve played in the last few months.
inFAMOUS- played a second time on Hard and as Evil cole. Great game, go get it.
Dead Space- I recently finished this game and LOVED it. Can’t wait for DS2 to come out!
Portal- I started this back in July then got stuck and quit. A couple of weeks ago I finished it. The end is amazing. Portal 2 this year!!!
Half-Life 2 Episode 2- I also got the the very end of this game last year and got stuck. I beat it the same day I beat Portal. One question, when is Episode 3 coming out!!!?? Seriously.
Darksiders- this game was such a surprise because I saw videos of it months ago and thought it looked terrible. Also, at the time I played Darksiders had not played any God of War or Zelda game which are heavy influences. I loved the weapons, combat and puzzles. Great game.
Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time- I finished this game a few days ago and… it’s Ratchet and Clank. There are some pretty neat puzzles and new weapons but it was more of the same. Very fun.
Mass Effect 2- EPIC! If you own a 360 or PC play this game NOW!
Batman Arkham Asylum- Recently did my second play through on hard. Love this game. I’m a batman fanboy but this game is seriously great, GOTY worthy.
Uncharted 2- I played this game 3 times. Earned the platinum trophy. It’s fantastic.
Assassin’s Creed 2- I rented this game, played it for about 2 hours and was ready to take it back to Blockbuster. Then it got good. As soon as you unlock your blades the game really picks up. The environment looks great and is not nearly as repetitive as AC1. Side quests are fun as well.
Modern Warfare 2- Story was Ok. Multiplayer is fun if you play every day. Spec Ops is great.
Borderlands- Played the hell out of this when it came out then got kind of bored. I vow to finish the main story! Co-op is a blast though.
Left 4 Dead 2- I have only played a couple of the campaigns but man is it great. The improvements and additions could not have been DLC.
Flower- super relaxing and not gay. (LOL at that last part)
God of War- About 10 minutes into this game I understood why so many games have been called “God of War clones”. Loved this game but playing my first time on hard was a mistake because I was frustrated most of the time.
God of War 2- I enjoyed this game much more than the previous because I was able to get through it at a decent pace without dying over and over. Also the swing mechanic really allowed for some cool stuff. Also that ending was EPIC.
God of War 3- I just finished this yesterday. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Each boss fight is fun and the whole game is epic. The variety of weapons and abilities was handled much better in this game than the previous two as well.
