I'msorrywhut?

So here I am, having vanished yet again (due in no small part to University cock-ups and my subsequent need to hide in a small hole and play games until 5am). I survived not only another week being molested by Dave and Steve at PCZ, but also the worryingly obsessive 105 hours spent in Fallout 3 (more on that story later).

In the meantime, I just thought I'd have a good short bitch about something.

Bioshock team's next project more "ambitious" - Kotaku


Uhuh. "More ambitious" than anything they've ever done? "Substantially more ambitious than Bioshock"?

What, you mean like...System Shock 2?

Multiplatform Game Site Actually Likes PC

Now I don't usually make a habit about talking about Gaming Lists that spring up on game sites, but this one is particularly good. It's the "9 (why 9?) Scariest Games Of All Time", and with the exception of the last on the list it's absolutely spot-on in my opinion.

This is mostly because all the games on there are (with two exceptions) are PC games, and mostly aren't even available on consoles. I found this so refreshing I had to post a Blog about it. Normally a list like this (on GamesRadar or wherever) would throw up Resident Evil, Project Zero, Siren and all the other third-person fixed-camera crap-controlling console survival horrors.


System Shock 2 might make it in to one of those lists, but would the Haunted Hotel level in Vampire: Bloodlines? Dark Seed? Clive Barker's Undying?! Did I actually write this list and forget about it, or something?




(On a happy note, this is the first post on this Blog to mention Clive Barker's Undying, System Shock 2, and Vampire. I'm proud!)

EDIT: It's been noted that they missed out the Thief games and Condemned. Oh well, kick off Dead Space and stick in either Thief 1 (Return To The Cathedral) or Thief 3 (The Cradle) then we'll be happy.
