PC version of Dead Space.

It's not bad for a console conversion. Of course the graphics are pretty poor compared to purely PC games of the same age, because of the limited hardware consoles have. There are a couple of control issues, like having to turn off vsync, or you end up with about a second of lag before the controls respond, and the game really p***** me off right at the beginning, when it defaulted to 'aim-mode', when I didn't even have a weapon, so of course the interface wasn't showing it was in aim mode. That resulted in me being unable to turn properly, which is really handy when right at the start you have to run down a corridor with lots of corners or you die.

While it's obviously influenced by a lot of films and other games (like Alien, Event Horizon, and the Doom series), it does have a good storyline of it's own which isn't a total rip-off, which so far has been developing quite well, although I understand it gets a bit messed up towards the end, probably because of the usual publisher not giving the developers enough time to finish the game problem (I wish publishers would treat games more like films, allowing them to get the job done, as well as having post production time to polish things, instead of forcing release regardless of completion status). I understand the storyline is going to get sorted out from around that point in the sequel.

This game is still on my shelf. Oh and I'm currently playing Starcraft 2 Custom maps. Not quite sure if I want to jump back into TF2 yet.

Right now I am playing the campaign mode of Starcraft II: WOL, Patapon 2, and Persona 4 and Bully.
Not all at once and I'm nearly done with Bully and Patapon 2. Persona 4 is a replay.

I'm super excited for Scott Pilgrim vs. the World and Dead Rising 2 which will make my backlog huge.
But I'm still excited.

Medieval 2. Reinstalled recently so I'm hammering through as the Venetians to unlock the more interesting factions so's I can overrun Europe with Border Horse. :lol: :roll:
Also dipping in and out of Oblivion - I forget that there's a really good looking game underneath the godawful levelling system and appalling acting, and it's kinda fun to skulk into the middle of a gang of bandits and drop a crocodile demon on their unsuspecting heads - and waiting to see what the next DF update brings.

Sorry to inform you that this is not the case with films :cry:

See Explorers, The Thief and the Cobbler, Ultraviolet, Johnny Mnemonic, Touch of Evil, Superman II...

(some of these actually were finished, and then the studios went and tampered with them, but it's kind of the same principal)

I'm totally addicted to Fallout 3. It's the game that has everything I always wanted: A fully explorable 3D world in an apocolyptic setting, the ability to create any kind of character you want, a house to live in and decorate, and the ability to just go around and do anything.

I hope Fallout: New Vegas is just as great. ^_^

Red Dead Redemption

Finished campaign 100% and now working on getting to level 50 on multi-player, currently on 45. I like the co-op missions but done them so much I'm bit bored of them now. Still enjoy just doing the gang hide-outs over and over though.
