I actually thought portal was the most cleverly crafted video game narrative I have seen in years. One voice, not much time almost no conflict in the traditional sense.

Hell give me those paramaters and I'd jsut scratch my head as to how one would go about telling a story, let alone a damn hilariously dark one such as Portal creates... with it out on live now I think everyone should play it, hell I bought orange box to play it and I fucking hate half life.

Call of Duty: World at War


Not being a big shoot-em-up fan i find it quite hard to get into.

Farcry 2: Badass. open world was the way to go with this series.

Deadspace: also badass. a mix of Resident 4 Evil and Doom 3, yet better than both, creepy as fuck and good fun. Theres nothing more satisfiying than blowing a mosters limb off, watching it slowly crawl around on the ground, then walking up to it and stomping it to death.

I thought the gameplay was rather unique, and the atmosphere perfect. It almost felt on par with F.E.A.R., but the repetitiveness of later levels put it a slight notch below. Still an excellent game, nonetheless.

If you are a fan of unique gameplay, check out Prototype. I posted a bunch of links to the trailers in a thread.

which difficulty setting did you play on?
im torn between medium and hard, medium felt too easy, yet i have a bad feeling hard will become impossible as i get further into the game.

So far, this is a darker game than the others in this series. Interesting turn.

I usually play most games on Medium first to familiarise myself with the game's atmosphere and gameplay first. Then if the game is worth it, Hard on the second go.

Medium was okay, not too bad. Like I said, gameplay felt a bit repetitive as the levels progressed. But the signature killing style was really groovy, and it had LOADS of atmosphere. Always 2 pluses in my book.
