Monday, November 24, 2008Holiday: Preview Song of the moment: May'n and Megumi Nakajima - Triangular I guess I was supposed to blog about AFA'08. However, as the quality pictures I took using X's camera has yet to be sent to me, I'll blog/review/comment/whatever-you-like-to-call-it about the two latest games I bought recently. Left 4 Dead ![]() Packaging - Quite a unique packaging (folder/envelope thingy). I think E Club Malaysia did really well here, at least in terms of creativity. While it was quite practical and interesting looking, its kind of hard to stuff into a normal plastic bag. Contents - Free mousepad and poster. Not fantastic looking but it was nice for a freebie. And of course, the game and CD key. Gameplay so far - About the same as the demo I played two weeks back. Essentially a zombie/survival FPS. However, now with the multiplayer and single player all fully unlocked(?), it kind of makes the single player mode seem superfluous. Playing through the first 2 stages of single player seems to emphasize this. I guess players can use it as a way of getting to know the stage better before playing with others online. Otherwise, it seems quite fun. Football Manager 2009 ![]() Packaging and contents - Standard stuff. The usual "Games for Windows" packaging with DVD (yes, the first FM on DVD) and user manual. Gameplay so far - It is somewhat disconcerting at first to play matches using TV mode (3D match engine, another first for FM09) after being used to the "moving dots" for so long. Of course, the 3D engine is not FIFA or PES-like but it's good enough for a management game. It does take a bit of getting used to though. My first team on the game is Huddersfield, one of the few teams without a manager. Total damage - S$110 ![]() Will start blogging on AFA'08 once I get the May'n pics I took, sorry for the delay. In the mean time, take a look at some of my day 2 pics which I used my camera phone to take... |
