Going Back To Paradise!

Woow, i haven't posted a blog for some time now have i? Well guess its a good time to do one now then! So, as many of you know Criterion games released their newest Burnout Paradise update, and its pretty damn awesome! For starters you get 2 new bikes, actually you get 4 but you need to unlock those by completing various challenges. The bikes are a hole lot of fun to drive around in. I was very sceptical about how the bikes would handle, but to my surprise they are very user friendly (especially if you know the city of paradise).

Then there's of-course the new weather system. You can change it so it matches your own time zone, witch is a very cool feature. Changing the weather to night time really changes the game. First of all, its allot harder second of all traffic also changes so there is allot fewer cars on the road. The system works very fine and is definitely of great welcome!

All in all its a pretty impressive free update for a game. This is the kind of update you would only expect having to pay for, but i guess Criterion loves their fans enough to give out these awesome free updates! So please do your self a favor, if you have the game, download the update, if you don't have it yet, dude what are you waiting for go buy it NOW!

I have also been playing another EA game this week, Spore. I wasn't really looking forward to the game, but after reading some of the reviews i got abit more interested in it. So i decided to give it a try.

Spore a great idea, but maybe a bit to casual

To be honest, I'm not really liking it, sure the creature creator is great but the gameplay is kinda all over the place. It never really gets going if you know what i mean, just as you get excited about the new age your in you get advanced to the next. Of course you can control this yourself but when you get the option to go to a new age, you kinda wanna do that.

Kevins awesome review of Spore!

Another problem i am having with the game, is that it seems to be abit to easy. Sure Maxis greated the game for the casual market, but it would have been cool if they had made a mode for the "hardcore gaming"(God i hate those two words) groud. Still feel like i need to play abit more, maybe making a new race of weird aliens would do the trick.

Ahh that was nice, hopefully i will be blogging abit more in the future! Later!
