Well its two blog posts in the same month for me; what can I say?
First thing is what the hell? Alone In the Dark Inferno for the PS3 was awesome here's why. (I know I'm behind the times, been busy
)
1. Nice mix of free roam and 3D maps, environments were thrilling whether you were in central park or the NYC museum.
2. Switching from 1st to 3rd person
3. Really, really liked that inventory system, one of the best I've seen for a survival horror game and the freedom to build WMD's with flares and 3 bottles of gasoline taped to a car's gas tank, then jumping out right before I explode a nest of Humanz.
4. Roots of evil side quest, boosting cars, killing Humanz in Central Park = fun
Man; I guess I went into this game with some really low expectations considering the broken thing that it was for the 360, couldn't even finish, but boy was I surprised. After seeing how it was "supposed" to play I realized Atari did a great job bringing Alone in the Dark back. The game is not without flaws though. They never did fix the wonky melee. It wasn't dynamic at all nothing felt like it had weight to it and there was no power behind the attacks.
Also graphics were not that great imo; then cycling through your inventory was awkward on the fly too.
Anyway I could go on and on...
Then there was Shellshock 2? Who remembers the first one and when the hell did it turn into a survival horror FPS? lol Talk about random its not like the first one was that great and I guess it went from being a 3rd person shooter to an FPS that came down with a touch of the Jacobs Ladder vs the zombies.
Been really busy so haven't been gaming as much as I would like but I feel that I haven't missed much I did pick up LOTR Conquest and it was garbage how many times can they re-invent the wheel with that franchise? KillZone2 this weekend looking forward to that. Then of course RE5 soon after.
What can I say, surprised that AITD:Inferno was awesome and surprised that someone thought ShellShock should have a sequel so I thought I'd write about it. My surprise to GS is writing two blog posts in the same month...Its February wohoo!
This will be my last blog for awhile
