Well, its finally over. My Cambridge exams have finished. Really, that was the most exhausting period I've ever gone through (save a few exceptions). I had been deprieved of sleep, studying like mad till 5 in the morning, then had to wake up 2 hours later for the morning session. Seesssh.....Anyways, the stuff's behind me now. Hopefully it'll turn out ok....
So, back to gaming then! And what better way to start the vacation than with Forza Motorsport 2 and Command and Conquer 3, both for the 360.
Forza then. Where do I start? The car custimisation is great, the graphics look nice (I know some sites have blasted the 'clinical look', but I'd rather have a little sacrifice in detail for a buttery smooth frame rate, than the other way round), and the core racing is intense (provided you don't upgrade the crap out of your car). The only problem I currently have is that the beginning races are rather too easy, even with the harder AI setting. Otherwise, an excellent simulator that's well worth the cash.
C&C3....is a little disappointing. Its way, way better than the stuttering mess that was Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle Earth II, but the frame rate STILL drops well below playable levels when the AI's controlling a lot of units. I've got pretty used to the gamepad controls, so its just the frame rate that irritates me immensely.
Well, happy gaming everyone!
