Earlier in my post "Holdup On Shooters", I mentioned various shooters I'd been putting off. These were Metroid Prime Hunters, Jedi Outcast, and TimeSplitters 2. All of which I own/plan to buy. I bought TimeSplitters 2 back in late November/early December, and MPH sometime in December. I plan to get Jedi Outcast in a SW themed month in May, in which I'm getting LEGO Star Wars II, Republic Commando, Racer Revenge, the original Rogue Squadren, and Jedi Outcast. I also plan to watch all six SW movies in a row on May 25th.
TimeSplitters 2 proved to be a little... lacking. It felt rather cheap, I didn't really like the style, and the multiplayer is a little too "run and gun" with some bad AI. (Especially in CTF mode.) MPH also proved to be worse than expected due to the annoyingly hard multiplayer mode when playing Wi-Fi, and liniar single player. Let's hope Jedi Outcast turns out to be better. I'm getting JO for the Xbox, against the advice of a friend who says to get it for the PC. (That friend is the one who keeps posting on my Blog, cowboydb59.)
Republic Commando is also a shooter I've been putting off for a while, and while it doesn't seem very Star Warsy, it looks like a rather fun game. The squad seems rather... odd for clone troopers, and while I'd prefer it to be about normal Clone Commandos, I guess the weird ones willl have to do. Even though I didn't like Jedi Academy and haven't enjoyed Jedi Outcast too much from what I played, for some reason it still sounds really fun to me. Maybe I'm just setting myself up for dissapointment, though. I guess I'll just have to wait and see. I'm not sure if I'll be getting Republic Commando and Lego SW II first, or the other three, but the first batch I'll probably get a week from tomorrow.
I'm also getting Revenge of the Sith for the DS, which looks really fun, which I'll have when to play when we go on a trip in May. (Portable games are always helpful when traveling.) Jedi Outcast and Revenge of the Sith just arrived today, so I'm looking forward to playing those. Since my last entry I've actually gotten alot of games, and I'll list them here:
Viva Pinata - Xbox 360
Worms World Party - PS
Final Fantasy - NES
Rayman 2 - DC
Metroid Prime Hunters - DS
Sonic the Hedgehog - Xbox 360
Marvel Ultimate Alliance - Xbox 360
Time Splitters 2 - Xbox
Morrowind: Game of the Year Edition - Xbox
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess - GC
Elebits - Revolution (I'm in denial)
Sonic and the Secret Rings - Revoluiton
Wii, I mean, Rev Sports - Revolution
Battle for Middle Earth II - Xbox 360
Cooking Mama - DS
And more that I can't remember right now. And that's not in the order I got them it, it's just a random order. Oh, yeah, that includes getting a Rev since my last post. Well, I guess that's all for now. Maybe I'll talk about BFMEII or something on my next post.
