Fallout: New Vegas DLC edition!

Dead Money: For the first release, it’s quite difficult, mostly dealing with certain areas that will make you explode.

Honest Hearts: Not terrible in terms of adventuring and quests, but the terrain(mostly mountains) is very brain aching.

Old World Blues: Very funny, good experience gains, a few particular glitches, but probably the best out of the four.

Lonesome Road: Assuming it’s a good end piece, but the multiple Deathclaws are preventing any forward progress.

Three simple words. Pizza. Versus. Skeletons.
You are a pizza. You must fight skeletons, beat them in snowboard challenges, rescue puppies and then sumo wrestle giant skulls off cliffs. It is excellent.

Puzzle juice is a puzzle game that promises to ’punch your brain in the face’ and it kind of does, being a Tetris like, a match three game and a word game all in one. Pieces fall and you make lines or isolate like colors to turn blocks into letters to make words. Similar in its achievement driving progress structure to something like shibuya. Me like.

Super Mario 3D Land (3DS):Yes, it’s very pretty, but absolutely no new ground is broken in terms of gameplay, which doesn’t mean it’s not fun.

Star Fox 64 3D(3DS):Quite possibly the best port and upgrade to a game for any system.

The 1st of many

What Did I Do To Deserve This, My Lord? 2 (PSP): I now understand the frustration and pain God goes through with this ecosystem-simulation game.

Shadows of the Damned: It’s a fun, albeit short, over the shoulder shooter, but the lack of wrestling moves from a Suda 51 game is surprising.

20th anniversary edition of Eric chahi (from dust)’s seminal Amiga/pc adventure another world is out today. It handles surprisingly well thanks to a reengineered control system that uses taps and swipes rather than the lazy virtual dpad route. Very much of its time (it is essentially a trial and error driven memory test) but tells story through gameplay better than most modern games and creates a hell of an atmosphere.

Jetpack joyride- another endless runner sure, but halfbricks latest has some great powerups, a nice shibuya esque structure where getting game center achievements is how you advance in the game so you have to change up your playstyle all the time, the whole central conceit is that you have a jetpack that flies by the recoil of machine guns attached to the bottom for crying out loud, AND the main character is called Barry Steakfries. What’s not to like?

Ugly American’s Apocageddon: Ugly Indeed.

So…who has played the new Rally X game? Is the control really as bad as all that?

My goodness quarrel dx is good. It is risk, except it is scrabble- rather than deciding clashes via dice roll, you have to make the biggest word you can with the troops (letters) you have to capture territory. Scrabble is good, risk is also good, both together is a delight.

Playing Shadow Era. Fermium card game similar to MTG. Simple system with some good strategic depth, but it is really, really slow to earn cards for free.
