The ellen page rip off was particularly annoying for the whole game

From the first few scenes it seems as close to playing through an interactive movie as I've experienced... but then, I don't really play that many new games these days. Can see the pace getting a little slow if there's too much dialogue, but I guess it's a matter of keeping the suspense rather than peppering you with non-stop action... and most of the dialogue/storytelling seems to happen whilst you're moving about... nice to not feel like you're waiting for cut-scenes, but naturally walking past TVs with news reports or bumping into people as you go.

Impressed so far. My lady made me turn it off because she was getting freaked out just watching. :lol:

It's a fairly slow paced game pretty much the whole way through, aside from the intro section. I did the whole thing creeping around stealth though, I'm sure it's a lot faster if you run into every fight guns blazing

Also, I downloaded Flower because I thought it might be a non-violent way to introduce the missus to video gaming. Neither of us can work out the fucking point of it.

I can't even work out how to rape the flowers.

which one? the OG NES version?


I've been playing South Park: Stick of Truth the past few days, its actually a great game and the south park vibe is fully there. The last South Park game I played was South Park 64; so I was pretty wary coming into another South Park game.

PS4 releases finally seem to be ramping up a bit.

Struggling to decide between Drive Club, Project CARS or The Crew for my impending vroom vroom fix.

Probably Drive Club seeing as it's out first. :lol:
