    Current Gaming

    Ah well, ive decided to keep coming back to this site, though i still think the video reviews suck.

    However, I have great news! A few weeks ago I completed FFXII and for the first time saw the ending cinematics and credits roll. I think the end was real solic and wrapped everything very nicely.

    For those who don't know, despite owning FF1 - FF12 (excluding 5+6), I have only ever completed FF10. Now i can add FF12 to that list In addition, i have FF8 almost completed, but its been sitting stagnant for the last few months as i was trying to get 100 of all the powerful magic. I think though thats the next title to wrap up, and im not gona bother drawing all that magic.
    ff12

    In addition, i have clock 18 hours in Left4Dead... and Oh my god. If you own a PC and like shooters, then you are seriously missing out (360 too). I love left4dead, and it really does have a wealth of replayability. VS only has 2 campaigns (which is 10 maps) but i play them over and over because of the coop factor. The game is just so thrilling and exciting.


    I think Zoey is the coolest character

    PS. The Corn is scary

    Finished with gamespot

    I'm out i Think.

    Gamespot just feels different now. I was wierd, it was like a gradual realisation that I dont come to gamespot for news and reviews anymore. Its always 2nd or 3rd on my gaming sites to visit. I think its mainly the editors. I dont know but other then kevin vanord (sp?) none of them have any chemistry in front of the camera.


    I was watching jeff at giant bomb and he really was at ease in front of the camera, really just explaining the game and what it was like, and puting some emotion into it, and i find the gamespot guys... lack emotion, lack confidence. They seem nervous in front of the camera and their reviews are often given in monotone with barely any flux of voice.

    I cant really explain it. They seem reserved and not into it. Jokes are forced and generally they are all very boring. Im gona stick with my account, use the forums and stuff, might be back next gen war but for seeing game content and reviews this place will be if i have nothing better to do and have watched GameTrailers, Giant Bombs ect.

    Warhammer


    Heyas

    Havent been on much cause I got in to the Warhammer Beta a few weeks ago. I must admit, it looks fantastic and plays great. A refreshing change from wow. I also find that when they tell you something in a pogcast... its actually true. There is Open world RVR and it plays out great.

    Mythic have opened a new site that will influence the game on release http://www.road-to-war.com/ , After perusing the map to my home town WA, i saw the figures, 12,000 Order and 60,000 Destruction!, funny how since in the warhammer world, isolated settlements often fall under the viel of chaos... and perth is the most isolated city in the world

    Needless to say I am definetly going Destruction.

    Anyways, have fun kiddos, War is almost upon us and when it breaks, you better not be standing in my way
