I've just bought Far Cry 3 off Game.co.uk for £22.49 which will be coming in a few days but what a bargain!
and I'll also be getting Hitman for xmas again for an absolute bargain at £20!

Initially impressed by Far Cry 3's graphics and story line. Took a couple of hours to realise there isn't an awful lot to do on the island other than walking continental distances without seeing something human to shoot at. The radio tower climb became boring very quickly. Ditto taking over enemy camps whose soldiers' AI falls somewhere between none and crap. Ditto the set pieces.

Price and game size really are no indicator of quality.

I watched somebody play through the majority of Far Cry 3, and by the time they got to the final few missions they just wanted the game to be over. A nice idea, but perhaps not executed to the high standards that we have come to expect from AAA titles.

Far Cry 3 is available for £25 on PS Store for today only

Forza Horizon seems pretty good. Got new NFS but not played it yet.

Playing through Bioshock again. Such a good game. The atmosphere and surroundings makes it very unnerving yet thrilling game to play. Loved the twist the first time I played it. Loved it even more this time. Five years old now. Up there with the best.

Odd someone should mention this, i've just this evening finished it myself for the first time, only 1 achievement missing; complete the game on hard without using vita-chambers. Great game

Got Darksiders 2 for Christmas. Really enjoying it so far.

Can anyone help with this? How do you set 2 players up in casual mode on rugby league live 2, on Xbox 360?
We got our son it for christmas and have only manages to get 2 controllers set up a couple of times and that was more by luck than judgement!

Ta in advance.

You just go to casual mode with one controller and when you get to the screen where you choose to control the home or away side, turn the other controller on, sign into a profile and then choose the side. I think you may have to press blue ('join') to join in, but it's as simple as that.

Just tried that and worked. Many thanks. Just got to learn how to play the game now
