Yep it’s time for my new regular item ‘What Games Do You Game?’. So here’s what I’ve been gaming this week.

  • Dark Sector – Like I said in a previous post I picked up Dark Sector this week and i’m having a ton of fun with it. Great game it just seems a little weird and also a bit short but it’s cool for now just to fill in the gaming gap. Look out for my review when I’m finished
  • Fight Night Round 3 – Yeah an oldie bot a goodie. Borrowed this from a friend of my brother’s this week(saves me buying it) and it’s another game i’ve been having a ton of fun with it bridges the gap anyway, plus the online’s cool. Hope they bring another one out soon.
  • Rock Band – Slipped down a bit as there’s been no content updates (can’t wait for next week). Anyway it’s still great even if solo does get a bit tiring. It’s just been announced that it’s coming to the EU for around £180, glad I imported now (only paid £125 incl. delivery).
  • Pixel Junk Monsters – A little bit on the casual side but still really cool. I’m nowhere in it yet but can’t wait for the update, it’s rumored to be coming next week!

So that’s it for this weeks ‘What Games Do You Game?’. Feel free to list your games for this week in the comments section under this post. Cya!

After my rather annoying task of sifting through a Japanese registration with Konami’s ‘Konami iD’ service I’m glad to hear that other desperate MGS fanboys don’t have to do the same. Metal Gear Solid Online’s beta will be downloadable from the EU Playstation Store from the 17th April. I will be downloading this version and not the aforementioned crazy Japanese one. I’m really excited about this one will give me another thing to play until GTA comes out. Sweet! The beta will be hitting as part of the new look Playstation store and will run from 21st April unitl May 6th. Nice.



GTA Countdown – 11th April 2008 (18 Days To Go)

Well yesterday I decided without having a decent single player game to play for the next two weeks or so i’d treat myself. I went out to good ol’ Warrington to grab me some stuff.

I picked up Dark Sector, a game I thought looked pretty good, for the small sum of about £18 after using some in-store credit that is. As of now i’m really enjoying it. I haven’t really grasped the story as of yet so might need to check wikipedia but that’s about it. The actions fast and furious with enemies coming from everywhere. The graphics are great and are some of the best i’ve seen in a while. At the moment the game seems really good I like it’s direction and its dark gritty setting and it’s looking good. i just hope I can finish it before GTA arrives.

Stepping away from games now and moving into TV land. HBO show Entourage is one of my favourite shows so I went and picked up the ‘Season 3 Part 2′ DVD box set too. Will be watching that one tonight :)

Check in tomorrow when i’ll update you on the really boring and mediocre crap that i’ve been doing.
