Well it's Sunday, and here we are again. So what have you guys been playing? I'm still hitting up the various Guitar Hero games pretty hard. Had a few good sessions on Guitar Hero: Metallica with 2 guitars and a drumkit going. Finished Guitar Hero 2 on expert and done most of the bonus tracks. Getting a lot of mileage out of those games.
Other than that - I purchased the new Fallout DLC dubbed "Mothership Zeta" but unfortunately haven't really invested any time in it. I've seen the gametrailers review though and I'm pretty keen. Check it out below for yourself.
So enough about what I *HAVEN'T* been playing, what about what I have been? Well, I'm a big fan of indie style games. The PSN titles such as Pain and XBLA titles... and one that came out recently, only on XBLA I'm afraid, has got me hooked... If you dont know what Splosion Man is check out this video before reading on...
What the trailer shows is perhaps not enough. The game is full of character, and while it is short, I can see myself playing it time and time again. Splosion Man as a character is like Daffy Duck at his wackiest if he forgot to take his ADHD meds! He's just funny as hell. He quotes so many different famous characters, including Arnie!
Every button on the controller, with the exception of the analog stick, does the same thing... makes you explode. You can explode 3 times before you need to recharge. Exploding makes you jump up in the air. Once you understand that it becomes a fast-paced timing-centric platformer from hell. I strongly urge anyone with a Xbox to give it a go... it's great fun.
Beyond that, Lil_Azza and I fired up Unreal Tournament 3 last night. Fuck I've missed that game. Considering starting making levels again now that I have this big void of time to fill in. But one thing is for sure - I will definately be firing this one up more often than I have been. I'm pretty sure I can get some of you guys to give it another go. Damn I've missed playing online!
And on that I think I'm going to have to bail on you guys. It's a short update I know, but hopefully there will be more next week... perhaps even details of my return to map-making? Who knows!
Til then, game on!
so you start playing UT3 when i have my trials. good job dickhead (Y)
