Condemned 2

 

Xbox 360 cover Condemned 2

Just bought Condemned 2 on ebay for 11 pounds which though was pretty good. Checked out the trailers and stuff and I think it looks like a pretty great game, it got high review scores and was praised for it’s atmosphere aswell so it should be worth the money.  The game is developed by Monolith Productions and published by Sega for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, I got the Xbox 360 version.   The game features bare-fisted hand-to-hand combat, combat with melee weapons, and first person shooting. The game also has adventure game elements in the forensic investigation of crime scenes. A demo is currently available on the PlayStation Store and Xbox Live Marketplace if you want to check it out.

Here is some in game footage rather than a trailer.

Skate is hard, Skate 2 is coming.

 

Skate 2 Xbox 360 cover.

Picked up skate. the other week for 360 and it really is one of the hardest games I’ve played, don’t get me wrong its a great game, lovely graphics, great control it’s just so difficult to get used to and master, although it’s still worth the buy if your interested in skateboarding. Also the new skate, skate 2 will be released in North America on January 21, 2009 and in the PAL region on January 23, 2009. Sounds even better than the first, one of the things I’m liking the sound of most is that you can know get off the skateboard so you can easily get up steps and also that you can move basically anything that isn’t nailed down, which you can jump over and use in your videos, I will be getting my copy when I can.

The Orange Box

 

The Orange box cover for Xbox 360.

I was very late getting the orange box but I can say that is one of the best shooters I’ve played even to today ones. I finished episode one earlier today and now I am onto episode two, I was a little disapointed how short episode one was although it was still an excellent game, hopefully I’ll have two finished soon, although I know I am going to be in high anticipation for episode three. Portal is also an amazing game and very unique, I have never seen anything like it before. If you’re interested in buying it give it a search on google, its very cheap and so much of a bargain. Heres the official site if you want to check it out.

SKIGYM Simulator – Be dangerous & look like an idiot!

This is the SKIGYM Simulator which can be hooked up to your PC and you can play the included game of Alpine Ski game or you can also use it as a stand alone exercise machine. I don’t see how it can be safe especially playing it in a suit, plus you really would look like an idiot doing that in your living room and to top that off paying €1,649, or roughly £1,583.81 is yet another reason not to get one.
