YIKES.

SCARY.

AIIIEE!

Umm. Okay. Yeah.

F.E.A.R. 2 >>> any survival horror game I've played to date. Especially that bug-ridden mess that was Dead Space.

Yikes.

Oh, yeah. It's a fun game, too. Nice balance of weapons, the fact that you're not stuck in an office the entire time rawks (the city environments are cool as hell), and the weapons remain nicely balanced...

Hell, who'm I kidding?

Watch out for Alma. She's one SCARY little girl.

...horror survival, that is!

Well, I'm out of CoH right now, but I still have things to do; I'd set aside some money a while back for some new games, and most of them are of the survival horror genre.

First, I replayed F.E.A.R., in anticipation of the sequel coming out this month. Man... I'd forgotten how creepy Alma really was!

Now I'm just at the very end of Dead Space. It's not quite as good as F.E.A.R., I have to say. The story's too predictable...

[SPOILERS]



The fact that Kendra betrays you, and that Nicole's been dead the entire time? That was supposed to be a shock? C'mon...


[/SPOILERS]

And then there's the controls; they're sloppy and slow, and there's a (no pun intended) huge dead zone on the controls for the 360. At this point I'm just finishing the game for the achievements.

In between these two I played the demos for Resident Evil 5, and F.E.A.R. 2. RE5 left me cold; the control setups are a mess, and the entire feel of the game is different. It feels like Capcom has paid too much attention to all of the zombie shoot-em-ups out there and lost what made the RE games so fun to me; not sure I'll be getting this game anytime soon.

On the other hand... F.E.A.R. 2 is made of complete awesome and win, if the demo is even a hint of what's going to be in the full game. I'm eager for that one!

Yep, I recently reactivated my City of Heroes account. Probably should have waited until my money situation was a lot better off, but I wanted to see if I could enjoy the game again.

So far, so good.

Ugh.

So much for 2008 being a better year. Can I trade in my sibling for someone that acts their age, and not like a damn spoiled child?

Going to move (yet AGAIN), so getting more art is pretty much not gonna happen. Makes me sad, cause I'd love to get some more.

:sigh:

It's true what they say; good guys finish last.
