Whats to come

You have to love Rainy days, no guilt felt for sitting in playing games all day.
Metal Gear Solid 4 was out recently and only owning a 360 means we cant review it.I will say this though it seems to have scored 8/10 on most reviews and it's a game you expect to get 10/10, yet another let down in the PS3 world.But that is a topic that we will discuss at a later date.


I am going to do a quick pick of the big titles coming out over the next couple of months.
First, Battlefield 2 see above for a more detailed preview and a game i am still looking forward to.
C&C3 kanes wrath is out the same day, June 27th, for those who are interested.
Robert Ludlum's The Bourne Conspiracy is out the same day a demo is up on Xbox live. It seems fun and looks good but a bit repetitive and arcade like. Worth picking up second hand maybe?


Not much else seems to be coming out in July and August, September sees the release of Mercenaries 2 World in Flames who's prequel I was a big fan of on the PS2 . Its a GTA style game except based in a war-zone which works quite well and if they make it as fun as the first it should be a good hit.Star Wars Force Unleashed is out in September as well, It boasts new better force powers and Star Wars characters(how many can there be) can't help but feel they need to give the star wars genre a break for a couple of years.

Later in the year, Left for Dead is due out, it's a CO-OP zombie survival game, sounds tasty.
Gears of War 2 is due out of November more CO-OP play.
Fable 2 is delayed until Xmas but its worth the wait if they get it right.It's a RPG that allows a friend to jump into your game and directly affect your world. You can choose to kill your friends wife should you be so spiteful , go on quests, and generally explore the world that Peter Molyneux has created for you.

Theres lots more of course,this is just a few games that i think deserve a mention ~
Until next Time.

As the resident PS3 fanboy (who finished MGS4 an hour ago) I have to defend Old Snake. The game is stunning both visually and story especially the end. True, the cut scenes are numerous and long but very well done. Granted if helps a lot to know the background story to the series and that is where I’d say the ratings suffered. As for ratings, there’s been more 10’s than 8’s. Bottom line is MGS4 is in absolutely no way a disappointment for the PS3, i'll miss the old fart.
