One Outta Two Ain’t Bad

May 18, 2008

So I didn’t end up going down to Yahtzee’s conference. To be fair, I couldn’t be stuffed. It would have been cool no doubt about it. But money wasn’t really on my side this week, so it was beyond my expenses.

However, I did play GTA4. And it was fun. Not worthy of all those perfect scores from what I’ve been seeing, but it was fun. Definitely an improvement over the rubbish that is GTA:SA. San Andreas was a big leap into the pit for Rockstar, selling it via controversy. GTA4 brings it back to a reasonable level of controversy.

I found the visuals to be pretty and such, music was typical of an awesome GTA compilation. But underneath it all, it had the same GTA mechanics. I didn’t find doing story mode very interesting at all and mostly stuck to the random car theft and police mayhem.

GTA4 is fun but overrated (as usual)

However, the PS3 itself is sleek and sexy. Can’t wait to pick mine up next month with MGS4.

*hype*

Also, I have finished The World Ends With You and am starting my review tonight. If all goes well it should be up in a matter of hours. At the latest, a couple of days providing my University workload doesn’t weigh me down too much.
