Ha - I just made that up!), recovered, and then not played Batman, which is easily the best game of the year so far. <br /><br />I'm hoping for something tomorrow.

I try not to use that word, but sometimes it's just appropriate. <br /><br />Also, I just listened to Out Of The Game EP13, and Shawn is right. Batman is completely worthy of your money (I honestly feel that it's a masterpiece). But whatever you do, buy the PC version.

The first ten minutes in particular were just stunning. <br /><br />The combat in this game, at the highest level of difficulty, is very satisfying once you get the hang of it (no pun intended). But I mean everything in this game is working. I thought that the demo for this was great, but the actual game itself is maybe a masterpiece. <br /><br />THIS is what gaming is all about.<br /><br />This is a cross platform title that's received an incredible amount of attention for the PC version, which is a rare occurrence these days.<br /><br />What did the chaps say about it on Out Of The Game? If they said bad things about it then I might have to stop listening to the show.<br /><br />Episode 13 eh?<br /><br />I'll have to listen to that.<br /><br />The Goose.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2446932103172180245.post-70408541954798063742009-09-17T17:20:14.822-07:002009-09-17T17:20:14.822-07:00Hey Jeff, just listened to Out of the Game #13.

...Green, do you watch Steam for the weekend sales?<br /><br />Call Of Juarez: Bound In Blood is 30% off this weekend. I was waiting for that. <br /><br />This will be my game for the upcoming Labour Day Weekend. I had been hoping to play Batman Arkham Asylum, which looks magnificent (the demo was just out of this world), but of course the developer delayed it - the official word being that they're implementing PhysX support, but who knows if that's the real reason. <br /><br />Arkham Asylum is THE sleeper hit of the year - no question about it.<br /><br />But you might want to check into Call Of Juarez: Bound In Blood. <br /><br />I liked the demo a lot. The NPCs have that charming glow about them, which I've seen in The Movies, and in Jade Empire, and in a couple of other games. It just looks like a fun shooter in general, and a great way to spend Labor Day. <br /><br />I love Steam. <br /><br />Hated it when it was forced on me by Valve during the launch of Half Life 2. But now I wonder how I ever lived without it?<br /><br />Wabe.
