Games I've finished
Pure
(Published by Disney, good for distractions, nice sense of over-the-top racing, a little repetitive and isn't as good as SSX)
Burnout Paradise
(Bustling city, with the 24hours patch it becomes a living one, actual immersion blending nicely with over the top action and speed. becomes repetitive about 20 hours in, overall amazing arcade racer.)
Dead Space
(Flying limbs everywhere, a rare good scifi horror game, shocks become infrequent close to the end of the game, scares become routine. Overall good game, confusing storyline.)
Call of Duty: World at War
(Overall good game, exact same formula as COD4:MW minus some points, Nazi Zombie bonus mission very awesome, even when alone.)
Mirror's Edge
(Amazing visuals, has occasional hiccups, but overall great game.)
Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Vegas 2
(Effing hard. Also, I found the 360 controller more forgiving. Great game for it's time, non linear.)
Games I gave up on.
DMC4.
(Backtracking is surprisingly tedious and unfortunately boring, even with badass Dante. It might've been good in RE2, but that's a design about 8 years old)
The Club.
(Strictly Multiplayer experience. Single player is so-so. Not very worthwhile.)
Yes, I'm putting in comments for the games I've played now. As a reminder of why I liked and disliked certain games.
Silent Hill:Homecoming is on hold until a good graphics patch comes out for the game, or an unofficial fix. Currently trying to finish Prince of Persia.
