Journey



Well I played on this...last week I think now and I'm still thinking about it which means I either loved it or hated it.


I loved it! and it was well worth the ten pounds of PSN points to buy it but the annoying thing is I want to talk about it to someone...well an audience who haven't played it but in doing that I think I would ruin it for them and my mates all have 360's and laugh when I mention about PS3 games.


But I will say this about it, you paid for Journey and you get exactly what you pay for...A Journey. I know it's not saying much and all games are a Journey/world you explore etc etc but this is called Journey and it felt like I had travelled thousands of miles, experienced all sorts of things in my travels in the space of two hours and staying physically in my room, even though in my head I was somewhere else simply reaching B.


If you get a chance to play this game play it! It's without a doubt one of my favourite games of all time now and I will be astonished if it's not my personal GOTY.


I'm also sure that I will be playing this again very soon in the near future unlike most games I play.

The Darkness 2



Currently I am playing this game and so far to my surprise it's been good fun.

It originally came out January or February this year and I thought "Meh looks average and I didn't like the first one" but so far it's been very enjoyable with a good comic book style gloss to it with so many ways to kill your enemies it has to be respected, especially in a shooter!

The story has been really good as well which is a mixture of horror and gangster which on paper you would think it wouldn't work but it does in this game.
The only real negative of it so far is it's quite short which I can tell as the story is heading towards the end now and the detail of the levels isn't great but the choice of things to pick up and kill enemies with more than makes up for this.

Not game of the year material but worth checking out if you can get it cheap.
