I have been enjoying the joys of Killzone 3 and Bulletstorm this weekend. I have to say that the developers of these two titles have really done a great job.
Bulletstorm is so outrageous it's brilliant. The tag line 'Kill with Skill' is appropriate as the game afford you many opportunities to use the environment to dispose of the assorted lunatics that infest each level. Of course you can use the conventional means of using a gun, but the real rewards come from 'leashing' them through the air, firing off a few shots before kicking them into some lethal scenery or over a cliff. Pure over the top action and great fun.
Killzone 3 is more of a straight forward FPS but again it's great fun, especially online. I had a really good gaming session online on Friday night. Very enjoyable and had some good laughs as well. If only more online games were like this.
The patch for Test Drive 2 Unlimited has supposedly been completed and is now with Microsoft for their authorization. So it's now the waiting game until someone at Microsoft decides to allow us the pleasure of being able to play the game as intended. Quite why it takes so long I don't know. What is clear is that their checking methods don't appear to ensure that the patch works as many patches have gone through before today that have broken other elements in the game they are supposed to be fixing. It sounds more like a load of unnecessary red tape. Oh well, the joys of gaming.
