After the Microsoft press conference finished, there were some mixed emotions. The Twittervese was full of both joy and disappointment with the direction MS is headed. The conference came out strong with some awesome triple A titles, Gear of Wa 3, Fable 3, and Metal Gear Solid: Rising. I think where a lot people ran into a problem was the Kinect presentation. Casual sucks I guess...photo via joystiq

Back in the fall I bought Need for Speed Shift the day it was released. I’ll be honest, I loved the game, butsaw it as something to hold me over until Forza 3 came out about a month after. Shift is the 13th game in what has been a long running EA series. I remember having great fun with the first NFS Hot Pursuit on my Playstation One back in the day. The game has gone through many reboots that I felt after the last iteration of the series, it was time to kill the series all together

NFS: Shift is really the first game in the series to use a simulation style gameplay. The game used real world tracks and cars, along with physics to match. When I first played the game I thought it was awesome, but when Forza came out, I quickly moved on to what I thought was a better game. I recently got the ability to play Shift again, and man was I wrong. Shift is a better game that is far more fun for me to play, and more worthy of my time.

As promised, I will be documenting all the games that I beat for the rest of the year. I wish I could say I came up with this awesome idea all by myself, but my good friend Pat Butler is the inspiration for all of this. Now let's talk Alan Wake.

It took me a little over a week to beat Alan Wake and for the most part, I loved it. Remedy did an outstanding job creating an absorbing world, great characters, and a surprisingly intelligent script. The game isn't perfect, there were times where some of the fighting became frustrating due to a sloppy camera. This wasn't a constant occurrence thankfully, but it would usually happen at the worst possible time.

Nitpicky nonsense aside, Alan Wake is a hell of an experience (Chad and I go into great detail on this on the latest episode). The game is paced perfectly, and it has a very distinct Stephen King mini series feel to it, for obvious reasons. I really enjoyed the episodic structure of the game, as I've stated before, and feel that if any game can finally nail the episodic dlc its this one.

Alan Wake is all about the player experience. I personally love games like this (I'm rather obsessed with David Cage's Heavy Rain), but I'm finding that once I've beaten them, I never play them again. This is why I think Alan Wake, being as short and digestable as it is, was only a rental for me. Is that a bad thing? No. Some people may feel differently, I'm simply giving my opinion.

First game down, next on the menu, Split Second. FYI, I typed this entire blog on my phone, how awesome is that?
