Been a tad busy building a three by five meter storage shed in the back yard, so very little gaming going on.
I have tried Witcher 2: The Assassins of Kings though; very nice box with a coin, map, cutout characters, etc. And incredibly unforgiving combat system with no clue as to when a particular mission is suitable to your character's level or skills. Very nice graphics, aside from the occasional uncanny facial animation...
And L.A. Noire; I really don't understand what all the fuss is about. The game has been in development since 2006, and it shows in lots of places as crappy low res textures, low polygon houses, etc. And the cases? Might as well call it "serial woman slaying investigator, the game". I mean, how many laid out naked, strangled and assaulted women you have to put in cases in a row? Five? Enough? Get repetitive at all? Sheesh...
Don't get me wrong, the voice acting and the motion capture are top notch, and I actually recognized many of the actors from their faces ("Hey, it's the cop guy from heroes!") - and it's not a bad game. I just get the feeling I'm being led through my nose towards an ending I have very little power to affect... ;P
