I still haven't got through Darkstar One. It started doing odd buggy things like making my entire ship disappear and making all my weapons silent, so I haven't played it for a couple of days. I'll get back into it tonight, I think. It's much longer than I anticipated too, so I guess I'll keep you apprised on that
So, the obligatory Bioshock comments. I haven't really payed any attention to Bioshock. I've heard good things, but it just wasn't one of the games I was watching, my radar just didn't pick up on it. It seems that I forgot that the Half Life series wasn't something I was watching until after I played it, and the Halo series wasn't one I was watching until I played the X-Box version in a game store... The best games aren't going just fall into my lap, nor are they going to be confined solely to the franchises I already know. So, I'm downloading the demo - 7 hours on my connection, but it's dodgy so probably closer to 12 - and I'll post my impressions up. If I like it, maybe I'll get a copy via Steam (although god only knows how long that will take to download). We'll see, it may actually be cheaper to buy a disk version.
Finally, much discussion of the original Command and Conquer games over at the C&C Union has made me want to go back and play Tiberian Sun again. If I do that, I won't get anything done this week, so I'm trying to avoid it
I think I'll see if Darkstar One has fixed itself. Maybe that'll curb my TS urges
