Stranglehold Demo (360)
Aug 19th
Played through this again and enjoyed it even more than I had done previously. The Precision Aim power is very much a guilty pleasure. I really want this now.
Fatal Inertia Demo (360)
Aug 19th
Unlike virtually everyone else on the Internet I rather enjoyed this. Not enough to consider spending any money on it, but it was nice bit of Wipeout-esque fun for a couple of minutes.
Beautiful Katamari Demo (360)
Aug 19th
It’s Katamari. Again. But in HD. That’ll probably just about do.
It was my wife’s first glimpse into the world of Katamari and after one go of the demo she demanded more, so I sat her down in front of We Love Katamari on the PS2, which she’s still playing and which she’s calling, “The funnest game ever.”
I need to find my PSP charger and hope we can work some TV-sharing out when Bioshock comes out.
Marathon: Durandal Demo (360)
Aug 19th
It’s like Doom, except looks worse (despite an HD update) and doesn’t control very well and the ten minutes or so I tried managed to hide any fun a long, long way away from me. I might try again to see if I’m just being unfair, but nothing about it grabbed me at all. Very disappointing.
Bioshock Demo (360)
Aug 19th
Not content with playing this yesterday, I played it again today. It’s very, very, very good. Atmospheric and exciting and, oh, it’s just everything people are saying it is.
Singstar ’90s (PS3)
Aug 19th
It’s a PS2 game, but I’m playing it on the PS3. Mostly excellent song selection, but unfortunately one of ours mics has developed a fault and cuts out now and again, which means my scores were even more pitiful than they should have been.
Bioshock Demo (360)
Aug 19th
I didn’t really mean to play this. I wanted to wait until the full game on Friday. I couldn’t help myself, though. Anyway, it’s ace, but I found it very hard indeed and didn’t actually complete the demo before it was time to go out.
Doom (360)
Aug 19th
Just checking that this has stood the test of time, given it only made it to number 57 in rllmuk’s top hundred games. It’s brilliant, but it’s very tough. Not sure what difficulty level my save game is on, but I’m getting my arse kicked.
Stranglehold Demo (360)
Aug 18th
Finally! I’ve got my consoles set up again! No surround sound right now, because two of the speakers have disappeared into boxes that haven’t been unpacked yet, but I have consoles. Hooray!
First thing I did was to download this demo. In which, basically, you get to be Chow Yun Fat in a John Woo film. As this has always been one of my dreams, this suits me… quite well. Another game to add to the list of things I need to buy at some point.
