Im playing Oblivion again. I went backpacking over the weekend and it the scenery and foot travel made me miss the game lol. All I need to do is the "fighters guild", the "main quest" and Shivering Ilses.

Im also looking to beat Halo3 on Legendary, so if anyone is interested in teaming up hit me up on xbl.

Spent some quality time with my dusty 360.

Burnout Paradise Ultimate Box
I got this in a package with, of all things, Trivial Pursuit.

I'm having fun driving around the open world like a maniac - finding jumps, billboards and shortcuts while occasionally exploding into a mess of metal. Took me an accidental button press to find the crash mode I was missing and by god it's fun.

I love that Criterion are using this game as a platform for their ideas and I think it's an example of DLC done right. I suspect i'll be buying this when it comes out:

Prince of Persia
Is there something about the Assassin's Creed engine than makes developers create pretty games with nothing in them? I enjoy the look and feel but it's very repetitive and very easy - it's my relaxing game after all the explosions of Burnout. IT came with the code for the Epilogue, I hear that's quite different from the main game.

Lego Batman
Well this is clearly my kind of thing.

While I'm at it, Men of War is $11.99/£10.79 on gamersgate.

RPS (a blog anyone who likes PC games should be reading) said:

Like King’s Bounty or Sins of a Solar Empire, this is a game that’s pure PC - something only possible on this proud platform, but without being wilfully obtuse about it.

Quote:

This is vastly more satisfying, though – when you conquer a level, you know you’ve conquered so damned much, and genuinely triumphed against impossible odds. Again, it’s Hollywood war movie as war game, and yet retaining the traditional anonymity of strategy units rather than mawkishly heroising specific characters.

I'm gonna try out the demo and see.

Willeth · 05-26-2009, 04:34 PM

So, the new GTA expansion?

Day one.

Kotaku - GTA IV Fabulously Expands With The Ballad of Gay Tony - Gta Iv

so E3 is like in a week, anyone else excited for the promise of new games that we wont see for a couple of months/years maybe an actual good title from nintendo....cough ZELDA cough cough maybe a couple of good none sequel games?

It has been five years since they announced Twilight Princess. I wouldn't be surprised.

Although being the new Nintendo they'll probably announce a new piece of white plastic and claim they're catering to teh hardcorez and not do anything about it.

All I'm really interested in is the ODST stuff that Bungie will be talking about and possible Crackdown 2 info. People are thinking APB might show its face but I'm not too sure.

Rufio · 05-26-2009, 04:50 PM

i liked the last one even with all its problems, like the super repetitive gameplay but i have very very very high hopes for this game, plus its supposed to come out this november which would be pretty fuckin awesome
