After another good while of quite and absence of posting, I return once again. Yup, it's that time of the... uh, well, sometime. It's blogging time anyway.
As some of you may have noticed, the FEAR 2: Project Origin-demo has been released on Steam. I downloaded it the moment I saw the advertisement. Shit, I've been looking forward to the true sequel since I completed the first one (without the expansions, haven't yet tried them.)
Although the game-gasm was very short, even a little short in demo-terms, it was truly fucking enjoyable. I'm very confident that it will be the game to admire and adore in these damp winter times that we have to reluctantly endure. Hell, it might even be the best we'll see until fall this year, 'cause everyone knows that's when most of the big titles come. Thankfully though, Monolith have decided to give us the full gory funfest that is FEAR 2 already in February.
My apologies for the lack of an Absence-review as I believe I previously promised. It will come though. I'll also write my thoughts down on Fallout 3 and Far Cry 2 as soon as I'm done with them. Though I am technically done and through with Fallout 3, I want to scavenge the wastes some more before I pass final judgement to words in this blog of mine. But I'll admit that there's barely the slightest nitpicky, minor flaw to point out with Bethesda's ambitious successor to the awarded series. I've not been this attached to a game for long, if ever.
Of course, I purchased the collector's edition for it. I've considered getting one of the Pip Boy 3000 digital clock replicas as well, but I eventually decided against it, as it does have a hefty price tag, even for being one of the coolest (and nerdiest) collectibles I've ever seen.
Anyhow, that'll have to be enough for now. I think I'll be off for another walk in the wastes that I hold so dear. Either that, or I'll go sadistically driving into zebras in Far Cry 2.
Oh, one more thing, a cheer to america's new (and probably greatest ever) president! I just hope all those trigger-happy supremacist idiots in the states leave him alone.
That is all, until next... hm, well, let's say next month, at latest?
/Marcus out.
