Now this caught me by surprise. I'd been looking forward to Call of Juarez: Bound In Blood for a while and I've nearly finished it. In fact I'm fairly certain I'm on the last level,
ominously set in the same fort I bitched about recently. I was also really enjoying Fallout 3, which is still very new. Plants Vs Zombies also took up a bit of my free time too.
And then, out of nowhere, I got hit with a retro vibe. Instead of finishing Call of Juarez, I've returned to Return To Castle Wolfenstein. Instead of killing Super Mutants with my dog friend in Fallout 3, I've got back into the Clone Wars in Republic Commando. Instead of killing Michael Jackson as a zombie (ahem) I've insulted pirates and enslaved monkeys in Secret of Monkey Island.
Of course I'm blaming LucasArts for most of this. Releasing a load of their old classic games of Steam along with a really cheap Special Edition of one of the greatest and funniest games ever made? Sold. Wolfenstein's Activision's fault though, delaying the game for two weeks and reminding me how much I preferred RTCW to Medal of Honour.
Now with Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 up to fifty-fucking-five pounds I'm actually looking forward to Raven's attempt.
Although I'm sure I'll get halfway through it and start playing Blood instead.

Yeah, it costs £55 on a console. But what about the PC? Let's have a little gander shall we? Oh look, £30 on gameplay. For that all our PC's deserve a big hug.
ReplyDeleteStop it... you're making me want to play Blood again...
ReplyDeleteI LIVE - again...
Had just about perfected that first level. All my mates were crap at it, so I was showing off.
I'm still feeling hypocritical and dirty for giving LucasArse my money though.
