I was really looking forward to this one an despite certain friends telling me it was rubbish.I was willing to give it a fair go,so i downloaded the demo and boy was i dissapointed.buggy graphics and the usual fps gameplay.The 360 is not short of a few fps's so in order to stand out against the likes of cod4 this had to offer somethin more than it does.
In short im not even sure i want the retail version anymore.

The club
Just downloaded the demo of The Cub today.First impressions were not good as i watched through the tutorial video,I found myself thinking "this isn't gonna be one of my types of game".
After playing the 2 single player modes on offer I found myself enjoying it.Now I was only on casual so it was gonna be easy but its also fun,sure the harder difficulties are gonna be nails but hey ho.
the first game type I played was your standard make it to the exit after scoring enough points style,it is fun though and after a few plays familiarity will be key to big combos.
The second was a kill people while doing a set number of laps affair.Now my problem is im not to keen on timed stuff,but The club is generous with extra time pickups and you get an extra 3 secs for poppin a bad guy.
My opinion on this game has already changed in just the short time i spent with this demo.I am however not totally convinced so I'll sit on the fence with this,and will probably rent it out rather than buy it.

Man.....have i been away for a while!!
Yep.xmas has passed,even the new year,its been a while since i last updated and ive been doing quite a lot of kickin ass.....Kane and Lynch crumbled before my gaming awesomeness and to be fair,waqs a better game than i thought it would be.Blacksit also didnt put up much of a struggle,but that also ended up being better than i though it would be.
Yet my crowning glory of achievements is the behemoth that is Mass Effect,its also been a HUGE pain in the ass.The game is huge..split between main story missions and optional sidequests this game has stolen my life away.The achievements come in a slow and steady stream that require multiple playthroughs (i did mine in 8 playthroughs).This is the only major downside to the game,the first 2 plays were good,there were different ways through the story,different options in dialogue were enough to keep the game fresh,even the 3rd play i was still finding stuff that id missed,then things get stale.To eke out the last few achievements is a struggle(and not because theyre hard,cos they aint).but because the ally achievements are a little vague but basically mean you have to complete nearly all the missions available without changing your teammates.around 170 hours of highs and lows...im sure its possible to do it in less time and less tries but i fell foul of not paying attention on my skills then having the whole thing collapse around my ears.
Although it is a brilliant game i'm hoping that no extra achievements are added to it,i would rather wait for the next game thank you.
