The original Joe Danger was really good fun, but I got bored/struck with tedium before I got all the way through.
Managed to finally play Vanquish and it was really "meh" so that's gone.
Bioshock 2 I managed to grab 2 hours on as well last night, about the same as I did on the original.
It's not quite as nice as the original and isn't as "haunting", but it's still such a well produced game. The look and feel is brilliant. It's just that the story and game play is pretty "bland shooter" under all the veneer. I'll give it another few hours though definitely and see how it pans out.
Then onto Mass Effect 3 in the next two month's or so :lol:
I like DOA. Of all the fighting games it's the one I get on with most. You can button mash and still win in cool ways with the multi-level level designs. It's uncomplicated to pick up. It IS just a fighting game though and it's unlikely to be a game I play more than once every six months for twenty minutes if I'm bored and in the mood for a fighter. The first PS2 game was one of the only games I had on the PS2 for ages so it got a lot of play - amazingly, this version doesn't look much different to the PS2 one - it was a fantastic looking game at the time and it's not really advanced that much.
At least I completed Ni no kuni so my time is my own once again!
Next game purchase for me it Grid 2 on the 360 in May.
Pierre, are you planning on getting a PS4 on launch then? I'm hanging fire to start with to see what the fallout is like after they try to put forward a network based solution in the EU where it's run by a bunch of ill-equipped monkeys. I don't reckon they'll have much of what was promised ready before the console has been out six months. All the remote play stuff I just don't think will work off the bat.
They are carrying on PS+ on the PS4, but no news yet of what it is going to be. I've still got about 30-40Gb on my drive free which I can manage with for another 12-18 months I think and then I'll make my decision when all the cards are on the table.
I'll keep my PS3 though for all the games sitting on it anyway. There's no reason to stick with Sony due to upgrade path, so I'll see what both Sony and MS can offer around my birthday and go from there. Unless I suddenly get lots of money and caught up in the hype of the PS4 :lol:
Spent a bit of time over the last couple of weeks on the Wii-U in Game in town too. Now I've found some better games than Rayman (which is identical to all the other versions :roll: ) it actually looks really nice. The tablet screen is nice, but the on-screen stuff is really pretty too.
There's a lot of worry though. A couple of big retailers are dropping the price of the system without an official Nintendo drop. That suggests they're cutting their losses by trying to shift boxes which is usually followed by them dropping selling the system all together. This happened with the Vita, which means that there's even less chance for a struggling system to get the sales required to give it "in hand" numbers to sway developers - not that Nintendo help matters by falling out with people like EA :lol:
The D-Pad on the Game demo console was also broken. That's a big concern for me. Okay, it's probably had a lot more "heavy" gaming on it than most people will on their personal one, but it probably equates to maybe a year of gaming? It certainly would in our house :lol:
The problem of course is that the tablet thing is an expensive bit of kit to replace. I've had a dual-shock fail after a couple of years and had to buy a new one - £35 is a rip-off. How much are replacement tablets going to be though when the D-Pad stops working? £60? £100? Every 18 months or 2 years?
Yeah, like the PS4, I'll wait around for a bit and see how that one settles in. Still, Nintendo will suddenly sell millions as Monster Hunter arrives
