It's been a bit, but lets check out what got beaten since last time!

Rage



Rage was that game that had no real driving plot, but kept you playing anyway. Like really, no driving plot whatsoever...and the ending is just as bad. The game rocked though!

Most annoyingly out of any of the other quirky features was the massive voice actor cast...so much so that i couldn't talk to anyone without knowing where I had heard their voice before. Also, Steve Blum, if you are reading this....stop stalking my games....and change your damn voice once and a freaking while.

The visuals were breathtaking, and the gameplay was spot on....so much so that I wanna make a foam wingstick model.

My only other gripe is the car customization...none of it really felt different, although for a tacked on mini game, i guess i cant expect much.

Borderlands



Me and the girlfriend were busy here...beating every quest in the main game...then the DLC went on sale so we bought em all and have most of that done. This was just pure fun....although i had bought the DLC with the bank a lot sooner... so many good guns lost to the 0's and 1's of history >.Pokemon Snap



A really fun game, when my N64 would cooperate. Hated the inverted controls, and was a bit too short.

But does anyone else see the Wii U as a perfect opportunity to make Snap 2???


Turtles in Time



This was one hell of an afternoon....playing all morning and not quite making it, then convincing the gf to put borderlands down for a day and to come help....blamo, 45 min later it was done. Almost like contra in the way that it's significantly easier with a second competent person at the helm (speaking of which, Super C is just waiting this same occurrence). Not much to complain about here either, except that it's more money than turtles arcade, but less fun.


Star Wars: Rebel Assault II



Lets preface by saying I LOVE SW:RA for Sega CD. That said, RA2 was a bit of a letdown. The controls were sluggish, even compared to the original, and although first and third person modes were there...it still diddnt capture that magic of the first. Part of the problem may be the storyline, which just couldnt get me into it...



so where does that leave me?

Till next time
