So another weekend gone. Didn’t get up to much, went out Friday with the work guys and had a few drinks.
Weekend was spent trying to get more of the backend stuff sorted out here.

On the gaming front, well this week The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena is out. It has had good reviews, but i have to be honest i am not going to be picking it up. I tried the demo and i just didn’t see enough of an improvement over the old game to make me want to buy it.

I know i should not judge the game on a 10min demo, but that’s Dark Witness for you. If i don’t feel that magic in the first 10 sec chances are i am not going to feel it at all. I am a bit of a graphics whore and that is one area that has to grab my attention which sadly this game didn’t.

AS far as games go, summer time is not the best. I suppose you could liken it to being dragged through the Sahara with enough water to soak a toothbrush. Traditionally that’s how its always been…. until this year. Over the next 3 – 4 months there are going to be some really nice games coming out so i will be giving you the low down on which games i am getting and why.

Unfortunately i don’t get paid for this yet and i don’t get sent the games for free so i won’t be able to review all of them. I will just be buying the games i think are really, really, really worth my £40.

May is just round the corner and my recommended game to get is Bionic Commando.
1. It’s made by capcom who brought us games like; Dead Rising, Lost Planet, RES4 and so far i think they have delivered on their Next gen outings.
2. The game looks quite cool, maybe a bit of an extension to the grapple hook mechanic we saw in lost planet’s gameplay ( if you didn’t like lost planet i am not to sure you will like this game )
