Lame Sauce with a side of Lame
Can't sleep.
Have been worked pretty hard, to the breaking point physically, if not mentally. Though I've run into my handful of mental errors too. And now, before the last long day before my 'weekend' of Tuesday and Wednesday, I can't bloody sleep. Balls to this.
In other news, I downloaded the Wet demo. It seems to have plenty of potential, but I found a bug in the design of the demo level (or maybe I missed something, I dunno) and the controls are finicky. I'm not the most superb FPS player and it seems like that's the main thrust of this one, and, while the slow-mo film effects are pretty boss, I can see how having to rely on that element constantly to get enough time to not be dead can eventually become tiresome.... even if the filmy in me sees it and says, "Ahh yes... Action glory with guns and swords and huge tracts of land in a somewhat skimpy vest thingy; I'll allow it," to the setup. I won't buy it unless it's at ridiculous o'clock style prices, but I would give a full version a try if someone else owned it.
In further game demo news, Brutal Legend seems like it could be a very fun, vaguely casual hard core game. The demo is short and sweet, the controls basic, but it could be a lot of fun. Probably in the same category as the aforementioned "Wet" but one I'm a touch more likely to purchase on my own. I guess I'm just not good enough at gaming for some of the more complex titles.
More later kids.
