Stayed at a friend's house for a week, and he rented a few games from my "Always wanted to play, but never had the system for it' List.
I've finally gotten to play Dead Rising and Bioshock Two
I got to play Prototype and Alan Wake as well, and I'll describe my thoughts on all of them.
Dead Rising: Oh boy... what a Capcom game this is. It's a launch title, and that shows in the graphics, but it was VERY well done, in my opinion. I ended up getting more achievements than my friend got when he played it, which pleased me greatly. I ended up getting from level 1 to level 50. I also went to the maintenance tunnels and got the zombie genocider achievement and the 'kill 1000 zombies with your bare hands' achievement. I then proceeded to run around in wrestling briefs with a megabuster on my arm and turn psychopaths into jokes. Poor Cliff.
Bioshock 2: I had a lot of fun with this. Played it from start to end in almost one sitting. Very atmospheric, got the 'save everyone' ending. The way little sisters see things is really weird, and I spend a lot of time soaking in the scenery. My friend was like "Go get that" and I was like "Shut up1 I'm exploring!" ... I just wish it would let you go back to old areas.
Prototype: Uh.... I was having too much fun screwing around to care about the plot, really. But the screwing around was REALLY fun... wish I'd done more plot so I would have had more to screw around with.
Alan Wake: I liked the atmosphere, I liked the manuscripts, I liked how it looked and felt... I just... couldn't get in to playing it... like...at all. Don't know why.
