Trine (PC)

Jan 21st, 2010 | By leimrod | Category: Games

So decided to take a break from Fallout 3 and training in Street Fighter IV and give this little gem a go. It’s been sitting on the back burner for a while so I thought I might as well give it a go (along with Mini Ninjas which I will be playing next)

MAG Open Beta: Initial Impressions

Jan 8th, 2010 | By leimrod | Category: Games

After a rather odd download and install sequence of this Beta demo (required a ~40MB PS Store download, then an install, then another ~40MB download when the game launched, then another install, then a last ~1800MB download with a final install) I got into the game for the first time and… the servers where down.

But would Resistance 2 change that or fall into the same level of mediocrity of its predecessor?
