Finished the story over the weekend. The missions stayed fun and never got to hard, possibly because I was spending all my drug-dealing profits on guns. Lots of guns. I didn’t stop playing now the story’s over, though. I dealt some more drugs – finally getting rid of one hundred ecstasy tablets I’d had for

Completed this last night. I was fearing that the final boss would make me hate the game, but he was fine. Took a good few attempts to kill, yes, but he wasn’t annoying with it. Thank goodness for surround sound, though. I have no idea how you’d keep track of him in stereo. Anyway, the

One of the most amazing gaming experiences I’ve ever had. (It’s a long list, yes, but this is on there.) To explain why, or really say anything about the game would spoil it. Go in knowing nothing, come out two or three hours later with a special feeling. I don’t want to go all Eurogamer

Game completed. I’ll link to review when it goes up. In short: average, a few lovely moments, terrible final boss, four and half hours long. Not worth buying, barely worth a rental.

Completed! Spent two or three hours this morning polishing off the single player campaign. Good stuff, when you remember that you’ve got to keep pushing ahead. I’m not sure I’ll ever want to play it again, though, and I never play online any more, so this may be trade fodder now.

Good game, terrible

Completed this last night, in terms of story. Lots of Achievements and some gargoyles left, but life’s too short to go hunting for them. The Hero of Skill – You were there when the Hero of Skill was recruited. The Hero of Skill isn’t very heroic, but he is voiced by Stephen Fry, so I

Story mode has been completed! Well, in a way. I mean, I’ve done every level, but there’s still stuff to collect. And then there are all the community levels. There was a superb level based on Spirited Away, a fun lost temple, a tricky homage to Ico, a couple of Mario-themed levels, etc. Wonderful stuff.

Hooray! Story completed! The game gets buggier and buggier the further in you get, culminating in the final QTE-filled climax to the game not displaying properly, leaving me to watch to some rotating polygons and button prompts while trying to work out what was going on from the speech and sound effects. How on earth

Started and completed in one thoroughly enjoyable seven-and-a-half hour session. Bit buggy, but generally solid. Lots of stormtroopers to kill. No complaints here. (Apart from having to play the PS3 version because the 360 version was out of stock. Still, I assume they’re pretty much the same.)
