My opinions on a movie and a few games.

Last night I saw The Green Hornet. It was a very fun movie. Had some plot holes, and the story isn't that deep, so the critics probably hate it; but I thought it was great fun. I didn't think Seth Rogan would be all that good as The Green Hornet, but he was, surprisingly. Go see it.

The two new games I have playing are Shaun Whites Snowboarding and Avatar: The Game. Both are reasonably meh, Avatar can be enjoyable but it doesn't go all that deep; the setting is interesting though. Just too many time filling missions, repeditive missions and standard gunplay.

Shaun Whites Snowboarding is even more meh, it really isn't that bad of a game. I think I'd like it if I'd ever been snowboarding haha. First thing I noticed was it didn't support widescreen resolutions by default, I had to look up how to get it to work on the WSGF. Once I got that running, I gave it a shot. It actually provides occasional thrills and has a very good sense of speed, there's just too much trying to get up the mountain, instead of down. Also, the keyboard controls are utterly horrible. It uses WASD, IJKL, the arrow keys, the numpad and the mouse along with other keys like tab and spacebar.

I just got back from a friends place, we played Kane and Lynch 2. That game is crap. Don't play it.

Watch this video and skip to about 1:20, and you'll see what a bloom effect is and why Assault on Dark Athena gives me a headache. This is a response to your comment on mah last blog.
