So as Christmas rattles towards us at a spectacularly alarming rate, we find ourselves finally free of impending releases and can take a good look at what’s been released in the last 3 months and sift through the glut that publishers and developers decide to throw out all at the same time in poorly calculated attempts to wrestle your hard earned pound from your grasp and deflect said pound from rivals pockets. Some I’ve played, some I want to play, some I won’t play until they hit the bargain bins as I’m tight/skint but let’s have a butchers anyway. In the interest of keeping short attention spans happy (probably killed by this intro anyway) lets see if I can do it in one-line-review/prize description from Bullseye stylee.
Left 4 Dead – PC, Xbox 360
Shoot Zombies into a gooey mess while cacking your pants in this ultra-violent yet enjoyable multiplayer horrorfest.
Dead Space – PC, PS3, Xbox 360
Event Horizon meets Resident Evil 4. Oh yes. Oh yes indeedy.
Prince Of Persia – Pc, Ps3, Xbox 360
Foppish Arabian prince with American pretty boy accent runs along walls while avoiding death thanks to hanger-on token game female.
Midnight Club: Los Angeles – PS3, Xbox 360
A fun yet rock hard street racer which no bugger bought.
Fable II – Xbox 360
Want to get married, fart at people and do menial, mind numbing, tedious labor-intensive mini-games and not have to bother with good things like actual questing and getting fat loot and all the good things that make RPG’s great? Well, come on in then!
Tomb Raider Underworld – PC, PS3, Xbox 360
Posh bint jumps around temples looking for Thor’s armour and hammer while shooting endangered species.
Gears Of War 2 – Xbox 360
Musclehead marines take on underground army of musclehead alien types with chainsaw guns. Again.
Call Of Duty: World At War – PC, PS3, Ps2, Xbox 360, Wii
Call Of Duty 4 with added tanks, dogs and Wehrmacht.
Mortal Kombat Vs DC – PS3, Xbox 360
If you’re not going to kit out the Mortal Kombat chimps with Kryptonite rings so you can rip Superman’s head off you really, really shouldn’t have bothered.
More to come as I plough through them.
