Budget gaming is an art form, and I am a Picasso in the field. I rarely spend $60 on a new game when, for the same price, I could get two or three olde titles. Being the artist I am, I always choose to let my games age, like fine wine. Not only are they better in my eyes, but I don't feel robbed when I buy them. In the list I am about to present, expect the games to reflect upon what I have just said.
Game I'm Digging:
Prototype - Despite what I'd heard, I'm greatly enjoying this game. The freedom of being an anti-hero is rather refreshing.
Alan Wake - So thought provoking. The atmosphere and story are both highly praised by me.
Dragon Age: Origins - While I am not enjoying it as much as Bioware's other series, Mass Effect, it is an excellent game nonetheless.
Need To Play:
Fallout: New Vegas
The Saboteur
Dead Space
Assassin's Creed 2
Epic Mickey
Uncharted: Drake's fortune
You know what's the really sad part? I have at least 10 more unfinished games sitting on my shelf, just waiting to be played. There is still hope, for I will prevail over this numerous stack of lost hours! I will finish the unfinished, and will tell you about the fun, or lack thereof, these games have provided for me.
Until next time,
Jesse Owens
