    I played RDR for about 5 hours, and it hasnt been back on since. It just wasnt up to scratch.

    Its a Rockstar game. It takes 5 hours to get through the bloody tutorial levels.

    Just...**** that game. Abysmal ****ing fly me to the moon look at my god damn arse for the 50 millionth time hammer the Y button die inside every time it tries to emulate outrun or space harrier ****ing, woeful, woeful game.

    Thank you. Best review yet! For anyone who wants the game recipe:

    1. Take a turd.
    2. Cover it in bling.

    And now you have yourself a bling covered turd!

    Played Assassins Creed 2 this year. Cut scene heavy exercise in tedium! "Yo, errand boy, go do this 30 second task and return here for a 3 minute cutscene during which I will, eh, find for you another 30 second menial task. (You may switch off your controller now if you wish to save your batteries)". How come that game did not come with an alarm to wake you up for the short sections that required use of the controller? Baffling!

    AvP - ok Rebellion, em don't give up the.....oh, that is your day job. Ok, give up the day job.

    Dantes Inferno - please contact Darksiders for a demonstration on how to copy good games for the purpose of making good games.

    I thought Alan Wake was ridiculously overrated tbh but for me the biggest disappointed was by far Crackdown 2. I thought the campaign was just dreadful and the online was abysmal.....

    What an odd thing to say. What were you expecting? And how did it not live up to that?

    i dont know why its odd. It was slow paced. The missions couldnt hold my interest and the story wasnt good. the action was laboured. it wasnt what i expected at all, just not good enough calibre of a game.

    Sorry.

    I thought it was one of the finest games ever made, and the acting can't be touched. Each to their own I suppose.

    Does it matter what year? If it does not then it has to be Frontier: First Encounters. I think I am showing my age.

    Dead Space on PC. I'd hear such good things about it being an atmospheric game and the scariest thing since AVP2. I was really looking forward to an immersive horror that would scare the bollocks out of me. When I picked it up on Steam for next to nothing I was delighted.

    Only to be let down by the horrible PC controls. Sluggish mouse control, limited range of movement, slow slow camera panning.... ugh. I gave up after the first hour. The terrible controls ruined any chance of immersion I had as I was continually fighting them. And if I'm honest, while the buildup wasn't bad at all, the actual necros themselves looked bloody stupid.

    :eek:

    If you have a decent spec'd PC there are few better games.
