Anything can happen in 4 months...

Judging from the months of hiatus by our lovable SIN, it seems that there is less to talk about in the games department. I, on the other hand, have become slightly more insane with the passing months I was on leave. I might even be leaving for a bit if anyone cares...

But now things are different. With the PSP launch out of the way and the fact that everyone, present company inclused, has been MIA from the onslaught of sweet games out and about, it is no surprise that we took a bit of our own selfish time to ourselves, dedicated to gamming bliss.

Metal Gear: Ac!d on the PSP is one helluva awesome game. It plays like your regular card-based RPG and expands itself in the MGS universe. The story's quite nice, throwing you off the loop more often than not and the issues with most MGS veteran may have a problem about with this new style of gameplay will silenced once they can grasp the fact that this is a wonderful game. I can't stress enough that this game is more Metal Gear than, oh say, Final Fantasy Tactics. You have to play this to believe it.

Mario 64 on the DS however good that game was on the N64, which still is, almoost decapitated my hands for its flimsy toouchy controls using the touch screens... makes you wonder whether Nintendo made a mistake not including the analog controller in the first place... regardless, this is a classic game worth playing. With a slew of added stuff inside, who wouldn't be having fun?

DOOM 3 scared the S**T out of me. Please no more screams from the dark.....
