I don’t have a PS3, but if I did, this would interest me. I loved Crackdown, and it seems to have a similar sort of feel to it. The blurb: In the aftermath of an urban disaster, an everyday guy finds himself with extraordinary powers. What he does with them is up to you. Welcome to inFamous, the sensational new title for PLAYSTATION¬¨?Ü3 If society collapsed tomorrow and you found yourself with unique powers that could either help people or …
I’ve not been feeling too well today (no, not drinking excess from last night – I had this before them, just not so bad), so didn’t fancy anything fast-paced to play or camera-swingingly nauseating (I recall some badness when playing Crackdown whilst unwell once), so I didn’t pick up Mario Galaxy or Psychonauts, instead opting for this, which I got for Christmas. The first thing that hits you about the game is how gorgeous it looks. I don’t think I’ve …
May May was more varied than previous months this year.¬¨‚Ć There was Eledees and Wing Island on the Wii, Crackdown, Lego Star Wars II and Tony Hawk’s American Wasteland on the 360, and the amazing Ouendan 2 on the DS, as well a plethora of 360 demos, XBLA games, and Wii VC titles.

No, I’m not impressed. Halo and Halo 2 both left me cold, and after several days of Crackdown this just feels slow, clunky and, well, dull. FPS games aren’t really my thing at the best of times, and deathmatch type things even less so. Unless the full game has an outstanding single player mode (and to do this, it’ll have to be different to the previous two games), I don’t think I’ll bother. As for how I got on with …
