Favourite Games

Since it’s Sunday (again) and I’m bored (again) I figured I’d post my favourite games on the 360 so far in a variety of categories:
First Person Shooter
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
I wasn’t looking forward to this because of the disappointment that was Call of Duty 3 but after I saw the first trailer of [...]

Mass Effect DLC

March is shaping up to be quite a good month this year, Rainbow Six Vegas 2 and new Mass Effect downloadable content. The content is gonna be 400 points (£3.20 approx.) and will add 90 minutes of new gameplay as well as an achievement worth 50 gamerpoints. I’m normally not one to buy downloadable content [...]

Games of the year

According to a bunch of Game Critics, who all named their top 10’s and gave them a score between 5 and 30 and then added up all the points awarded to each game, Bioshock is the overall Game of the Year with the most nominations. It’s a pretty interesting top 10 actually:

1. BioShock
2. The Orange [...]

EA takes care of it’s own

In response to Fox’s bashing and lie riddled piece on Mass Effect the other day, EA has written them a strongly worded letter asking for a correction and apology. I doubt Fox’ll respond but it’s good to see EA calling them on it. Also funny is the response to one of the “experts” on the [...]

Mass Effect is porn

According to all the news shows lately anyway. Somehow it’s taken two months but it’s finally hit the fan as the mainstream media has discovered that Mass Effect has a sex scene in it. I haven’t seen it myself, ew I don’t wanna see men and women going at it, but I think it lasts [...]

Mass Effect

Well after 31 hours, it’s done. I completed Mass Effect. There aren’t really words to convey how good this game is. But I’ll give it a try.
The graphics are very nice, BioWare have added a film grain to the graphics which gives the graphics a very distinct, soft look. I think it [...]

Try before you buy is bull

Apparently if you rent games you are far less likely to buy them in the end, rather than more. You play them till you complete them and then you send them back, never to buy them in the end. This doesn’t really come as a surprise since most people who rent films don’t end up [...]

Mass Effect

So I woke up on Saturday and I went downstairs and there had been no mail. Boy was I pissed! So I went upstairs and got my wallet and was about to head out the door to Tesco to drown my sorrows in candy and soda when Mum asked me if I’d gotten my [...]

Mass Effect

I was notifed on Wednesday by Boomerang that they’d sent me out Mass Effect, I was rather chuffed. However it’s now Friday and there’s been no sign of it. I’m pissed. Either they haven’t sent it (and I’m pissed that they said they had) or it’s been lost in the post (which I’m pissed about [...]
