Ok, I wanna talk about three things. First off, the new X-Com game. I honestly don't see the point in it. If they want to make a generic console shooter with aliens, why won't they just make a new franchise? Why drag X-Com into it? Nobody who knows of X-Com wants a sequel like this. What the hell. I guess you could say the same about Fallout 3 though.

Second, The Whispered World. The game looks absolutely gorgeous. If you don't know about it, just check out some of the screenshots or trailers. I LOVE 2D handdrawn graphics, and I still believe adventure games should be done this way unless the 3D actually benefits the gameplay (and in the case of adventure games, it rarely does.) I've been following this game for... I dunno, a year or so? I had played the German demo but with my skills in German being near zero I didn't manage to progress very far. The English demo is out now, and I suggest that you guys check it out if you haven't already done so. The game is gonna be released next week I think, and I don't know about you but it's a must buy for me.

Third, King's Bounty Armored Princess. As some of you might know, one of my favorite genres is turn-based strategy/tactics. Personally, I've never been much into RTS's for some reason. I find them to be kinda boring and not require as much strategy (I'm gonna get hate messages for this aren't I?) I dunno, I just don't find them that fun to play. Anyway, as far as TBS goes, King's Bounty: The Legend got me seriously addicted when it was released. If you check out my Xfire hours you'll see that it's my most played game with over 70 hours. So, I finally saw a copy of Armored Princess in a local store and I had to get it. It was 30€ instead of the regular 50€ too! Kudos to 1C, since it probably will offer more content than 90% of the 50€ games. Addiction awaits! :)
