I forgot how much I like Escape from Butcher Bay
I've been playing The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena lately, and instead of diving into the new Assault on Dark Athena content, I've decided to play through Escape from Butcher Bay first. I'm maybe 8 hours in, and the game is just as good as I remember, but it's really reminded me of how much I miss good stealth gameplay. Not since Metal Gear Solid 4 (which released in June of last year) have I really played a stealth-driven game, so this has been really refreshing.
Oh, and the load times aren't that bad if you install the game. Max load time for me has been maybe 8 seconds.
Dead Rising on Wii = LOL
Okay, first of all, there isn't any AI with the Hitman character models and they're repeated a HELL of a lot more than in Dead Rising (I love Hitman, played through them all and enjoyed the level here, so I know what the deal is), but this is still funny. When my colleague Chris brought it up in the work chat, I found it to be quite comical. Comical enough to post here, I guess.
