Fallout 3 – Going to be the best game ever! (Hopefully)
I played Fallout when I was about 13 years old, and Fallout 2 a few years later, so this series really takes me back to the good old days. Aside from the nostalgia factor, this series has always been amazing, with some of the earliest open ended gameplay in any game. With such a great new developer taking the reins I expect even more form this game than previous incarnations. All of the reviews are great and it won best at show in quite a few categories, and the categories it didn’t win it placed very well.
Check out this great review.
Take a look at some of the great looking screens from Fallout 3.

Soul Calibur IV – Great game, but doesn’t make me an addict….so how great can it be?
 |
I recently heard that Soul Calibur IV came out and I was very excited. The previous incarnations had been genre defining games that I had played for what seemed like days straight. So I went out and rented it, and beat it within 45 minutes while I was making and eating lunch….that’s the first problem….the main mode is short as hell! Luckily there was another single player mode that sounded interesting, so I tried that. It was fun and somewhat challenging, but it all comes down to there not being anything really inovative or new in this version. If I didn’t care at all about the upgraded graphics or new characters, I could play Soul Calibur 2 and not miss a thing…and those new elements aren’t enough to make a game really engrossing.
