My plan for the next week is to do as much damage as possible to Demon's Souls and to replay Uncharted 2 on Crushing to finish all the trophies. Then on Thursday, Windows 7 and DirectX 10 will pull me back to finish RE5 and Batman.
I'm gonna play through Silent Hill Homecoming since its that time of year. After I get through that or get sick of it, I'm gonna make a decision between Silent Hill 2 or Dead Space. What do you guys think? Never played either game(save fior a tiny slice of SH 2) so I'm wondering which I should get before Modern Warfare season comes....
I was about finally jump into Homecoming as well, but our 360 bit the dust.
So, instead I am finally started on MGS Acid. Its been sitting on my shelf for more than 2 years lol
Deus Ex
All the recent news about Epic Mickey convinced me to go back and replay this classic. I did notice a few things on this playthrough. It's a lot more 'gamey' than I remembered. There's ammo and weapons and stuff in illogical places that only make sense from a videogame exploration-reward context. This, in a roundabout way, makes me appreciate Dark Messiah and its blatantly artificial placement of spiked walls and other traps a lot more, as I somehow had this warped perception of Deux Ex being entirely organic and realistic in level design, something which I now realize is untrue. Also, the number of routes and decisions is still mind-boggling. Even small scenes, like the one where you meet Dowd in the cemetary, have an unreal number of options. That scene lasts five minutes and there are about seven different ways to escape the MJ12 attack. Oh, and you get different dialogue if you take out the gatekeeper before you talk to Dowd.
Brutal Legend
No, it most definitely is not GOTY. Batman: Arkham Asylum is still the frontrunner. However, it is still a very good RTS-hack-and-slash-driving-open-world-whatever game. The RTS parts really remind me of a less complex Kingdom Under Fire (the good ones on Xbox, not the PC or 360 games). I do wonder if the game was rushed, though, as there are a lot of little decisions that make no sense, like having to go back to see Ozzy every time you want to switch axe or string upgrades, or the repetition of side missions (and they rarely even increase the difficulty! Come on!). Still, a good game, though most people would probably be better off renting it and just blowing through the main story.
Has anything even come close to Deus Ex in this regard?Quote:
