Wasteland 2 Beta

Hell yeah, time for some good old post-apocalyptic rpg sessions. It's Wasteland 2 Beta time!

I really look forward to this game.

Mark morgan's music really fits the sand-blowing-lone-ranger-cowboy feeling and the amount of text is incredible. Just the way I like it. CoD kiddies better stay away.

System shock 2

I've been thinking about how great System shock 2 is.

I'ts awesome.

The music, the setting, the sounds and the gameplay were truly ahead of it's time. The scariness is nothing short of breathtaking.

I really look forward to the indie game Routine to bring back the scary scifi where only Dead Space 1 has succeeded. (2 was ok too)

Catherine, oh Katherine

Catherine for Xbox 360 and PS3 seems to be one of the most difficult newer generation games I've played. It's up there with Demons/Dark Souls with the difficulty level.

Finally started playing again after many months of ragequitting the game and I've just gotten to the last level.

Sudden instakill boss attacks suck ass though.

ps. Catherine is a childish whore and doesn't deserve any love.

Dark Souls II impressions

DARKSOULSFUCKYEAH

PRAISING THE SUN I'LL DISPLAY MY MIGHT

I'LL WALK THROUGH THE DARKNESS BY BONFIRES LIGHT

DEMONS, DRAGONS AND ZOMBIES AWAIT

I'LL HAVE TO BE QUICK OR I'LL BE ON THEIR PLATE

I KILLED GWYN AND THATS ALL RIGHT

SIGNED UP FOR BETA, UMBASA MY WARRIORS

TONIGHTS THE NIGHT!

A few thoughts about Dark Souls II beta based on a few minutes of playtime.

I praise:

-Fluid animations (clothes, backstabbing)
-Intuitive Controls and allowing more mapping (Jumping button elsewhere than the dash button)
-Difficulty (Seems to not have changed. Just ok)
-Inventory and merchants.
-Better layout on inventory
-Epic landscapes

I like:
Cool classes (DUAL SWORDSMAN)

WTF:
Smaller whitestone? How is this making any sense?

I hate:

-BAD, BAD FPS (PS3 version) Not as bad as in the first game in certain areas (Blighttown), but overall seems much lower. Hopefully it will be better, although I'm looking on the pc version myself.

 From software knows not to fuck around. Players who slogged through previous souls games know what to expect. I amazed myself by not dying on the first boss! Umbasa! Must buy for fans. Others, prepare to die!



BETA verdict:
An excellent sequel flawed by bad FPS
