Well after a 6 month hiatus I’m back and better than ever. Maybe that’s an exaggeration, but I am back and my web designer did whip me up this snazzy new layout.

At the start of the year I must say I was a little apprehensive about the state of upcoming titles being any good. But so far this year has offered plenty of great stuff from full release titles, add ons for existing titles and addictive downloadable titles from the various online marketplaces. Here’s a little mid year assessment by the one and only true Thunderpudd…


Hello 2009, Now Where are all the Good Games?

So I just finished playing the demo for Ninja Blade on Xbox 360 and walked away feeling… meh. Sure the game looks pretty, feels very much like Ninja Gaiden, but adds several quick time events to give it a more cinematic feel. Unfortunately the controls are a little on the sloppy, and much like Ninja Gaiden the boss battles are frustratingly hard. As such this shortens the list of games I was looking forward by one.

Which got me to thinking. What games was I looking forward to this year?

I just finished up the bulk of Fable 2 last week. In my time spent with Peter Molyneux’s latest RPG I vanquished many foes, saved tons of people and became a ruler of all the land. At the start of my adventure I fully intended to play things differently than how I played the first Fable. Since I was a pure evil bastard during my first trek through Albion I figured I’d try an angelic female this time.
