Every year, it seems that more and more good games come out to take up my time, especially at the end of summer…
So, right now I’m playing both Bioshock and Zelda: Twilight Princess. I’m certain MooBob42 will come by and raid my room soon if I don’t finish this game and return it to him! I only just got out of the underwater temple, and I hear that’s about halfway through the game. I’m 20 hours in, so that sounds about right.
Bioshock is… disturbingly fun. Between the "Lost" like mystery of what the heck happened in Rapture, to the survival-horror like whispers and splicers jumping out from the shadows and finally, the "big daddy" minibosses that basically kill me a half dozen times before I can take them out, it’s a lot of fun. The little sisters are a pretty disturbing concept, zombie little girls that you can either kill or rescue. Seems that the muggle media is already picking it up as another sign that video gamers are evil!
Next week: Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. Halo 3 at the end of September. What can I say, I like FPS with stories! And I still need to start a half-dozen RPGs before school starts!
