I've been away for a while... well not really, just haven't posted a blog in a while... here it is. The reason I didn't bother was because I made a steam, and I'm loving it, so far I've bought Plants vs Zombies (awesome game, will review) and the Counter-Strike Complete Pack (CS 1.6, CS CZ, CS Source, Day of Defeat, Deathmatch Classic and Ricochet) which were both cheap and worth it. I just installed Ricochet then, and it seems like a very interesting game (it is a Half-Life 1 mod), in it you jump around flying from platforms to platforms shooting discs at eachother, well that's what I'm guessing you do... you see, the servers I search in all have a ping (or frequency) of over 1000... which means when I play them, I just stand there for a few seconds, unable to move, then fall down in to oblivion... which is very dissapointing. So I was wondering, anyone who has this game, is in Australia and had a good internet, comment on this blog and please offer to host a game sometime. I would love to play it. Thanks

I've written a review of MotorStorm: Pacific Rift and if you actually want to read it you can find it here. Anyway, after finishing Mirrors Edge I've decided to make a list of the top 5 most underrated games. Here goes:

5. Battlefield: Bad Company

This game is not really underrated, more underappreciated. I think that if Call of Duty 4 never came out, this game would be where Call of Duty is now. See my full review here.(WARNING! This is one of my old reviews... they're cr*p.)

4. DRIV3R

Here's a game that a lot of you have played, and compared to GTA, therefore you hated it. Well I played this game before I played a GTA, therefore I loved it. See my full review here. (Another old review.)

3. Mirrors Edge

Now you've probably heard of this one, looked at the score of 7.0, and gone meh, screw it. I'm here to tell you that this game is amazing, but it really comes down to taste, look at some gameplay videos.

2. Second Sight

One epic game, you are John Vattic, you woke up in a medical research facility and can't remember anything. You have superpowers; like teleknesis, and things get messy. It has an amazing storyline and tells it perfectly, highly reccomended.

1. Mount & Blade

This is a budget game done right. It's not fully polished, but the gameplay and battle scenes in this are amazing. See my full review here.

...and have no idea how. My controller is stuffed, Sometimes it just continuously turns in one direction, for example, it will keep scrolling through menus without touching it and when you shake it, it rattles. So I am going to pull it apart, (don't worry I have another controller) and try to put it together again. I would like help from people who have done this before.

On other news, I just finished Mirrors Edge, a great underrated game I will review later. Thanks.
