I would give Max Payne 3 9/10 but I am a fan of the series and I think that helps. It has character and is the most stylish game I think I've ever played. Game play can be repetitive, but the levels designs changed just enough to keep me interested the whole way through.

Some people will hate the extended cut scenes, personally I loved them, really engaged me in the story and were well done.

P.S. That level at the stadium is one of the best levels on the game, the set pieces are superb!

Anybody played The Walking Dead game? Any good? Played the demo earlier, and quite liked it. 5 episodes eventually, 2000msp altogether...

Currently playing Darksiders on the PS3. Really enjoying it, even if it is a bit old and nothing great to look at, it's pretty tough to play so far as well. Not sure how long it's supposed to last but I've been playing it for a few hours and I've only just reached my first 'proper' boss. The sequel is out soon I think and I'll probably get that if it plays as well as this one.

Game of the Year for me. It isn't the hardest of point and click games but it has the feel of the comics spot on while telling its own story. And boy does it tell one hell of a story and I haven't had a attachment to a character in a game for ages, I will do whatever it takes to save Clemintine.
Better than the TV show for sure.

I played it for over 20 hours I think, maybe 30 after I went back to get some of the collectables. I enjoyed it, but I didn't like the pacing of it, the constant switch between puzzles to fighting a little bit anoying but it was a great game all in all. The 2nd one is a lot bigger apprantly.

PES 2013 Demo... Thoughts?

I feel like there are quite a few moments in PES that makes football feel and look more realistic than ever. Being so used to FIFA and playing PES opens your eyes to areas of gameplay that are non existent in FIFA and could improve the gameplay and experience.

Looking forward to FIFA 13 demo now though, hopefully there are substantial improvements. Don't care about FUT and Career mode, the gameplay is all that matters.

Every time I play the PES demos, I find them refreshingly brilliant. Last year, the first demo was amazing, then the second felt like a sloppy FIFA. I will download it tomorrow and give it a blast, if it plays well then balls to FIFA this year, I only buy it for a few months of FUT it seems.

I almost had a heart attack when I was forced to use the analogue stick for movement. Thankfully you can revert back to the classic d-pad controls via the controller setup screen. Phew!
