Lol, Another week of not playing Darkstalkers. I have completed Prince Of Persia: The Forgotten Sands and I do recommend people playing it if they enjoyed the gameplay from previous Prince Of Persia games. [Update] I Updated this article as i forgot to mention the demos i played this week.
Football Manager 2010 – PC – Villajoyosa is an interesting challenge. I've not played much yet as i've spent time sorting out the squad for what will be a difficult season ahead.
Little Big Planet 2 – PS3 – This was another week where I set up several levels on lbp.me. But I didn't complete the 3rd section of the game. There's not much to say apart from the lack of people accepting online invitations.
Tetris – PS3 – I only popped into the game for some online, which I got a trophy in, and to see how my scores are fairing against people on my friends list...and safe to say i'm still top of them all, lol.
Prince Of Persia: The Forgotten Sands – Xbox 360 – I finished the game and overall it was a good game. Sure there are some silly parts, like water facets everywhere, but if you look past the silly level design and focus more on the game as a whole, its a fine game and worth more than what I paid for it. The end of the game is pretty hectic. Not only are the enemies much more difficult but so is level traversal. On top of wall runs and climbing, there the water freezing mechanic introduced half way through which allows you to run up/along or climb the water. Then, near the end, you gain the ability to rebuild some of the level...but only a small bit a time. So near the end your solidifying water, jumping to a part of the level you've rebuilt, then running along a wall to more water, and from the water solidifying another section of the level. That may sound complicated but its much easier to do it in the game than you think. The boss battle at the end of the game is fine, getting there is definitely much better than fighting it, but it really doesn’t detract from the game as a whole. And overall, Prince Of Persia: The Forgotten Sands is a good game. There are moments when the graphics look great, and when your on a role with the jumping and climbing its brilliant. The only thing that lets it down and stops this good game from being a great game is the controls which can, on occasion, make you jump in the wrong direction. The challenge rooms at the end are not much of an addition either but it is a quick way to get 50 points.
Ricochet HD - Demo - PS3 - this demo is short...maybe 10 minutes. its a breakout style game but i didn't enjoy it. the UI is far too cluttered and the demo doesn't explain enough what each of the powerups are. i wouldn't recommend people get the demo.
Trinity: Souls Of Zill O'll - Demo - PS3 - I really didn't know alot about this game going in and thankfully the demo is pretty robust. you need to know a bit about how games work as it chucks you straight into the games menus. they explain in enough detail each significant part, like shops, but some people unfamiliar with games my find navigating it difficult. the game is well explained as you play and you have a good portion to play through. you get to experience a fair bit of combat. the game feels a bit like Dynasty Warriors but with more RPG elements. if your interested, this demo is pretty good and worth checking out.
Plants Vs Zombies - Demo - PS3 - The best demo to come out this week was Plants Vs Zombies. i've never played this game before and this demo was a great introduction. it explains each thing you need to do simply and then asks you to do it. you get to do several levels and you get several new plants to try out. once the demo is over, if you enjoyed it like i did, there is a part of you that wants to continue playing. this could be down to the fact you unlock a new plant and are teased it just as the demo ends. it also teases you saying if you had the game you would've unlocked a trophy. its a great demo and honestly a very good game
