IWUTE Test (I woke up too early test) - The Darkness II



The screenshots look promising. "The Darkness II". Never heard of it. Can not remember where I bought it. Probably in the 2k Humble Bundle.

Some horror FPS. Well. I should not blow brainz out before breakfast and coffee, but ah what the hell.


[ AFTER THE FIRST RUN ]
If you know nothing about it - PLAY IT WITHOUT READING THE REVIEW OF THIS GAME BELOW, PLEASE.

(btw, dont miss the "what happend in darkness 1" monolog ingame by this guy in the picture, its hillarious)

Since I want to clean my steam library, I will test Risen from Deep Silver

So, I call it "Test-A-Quick". Since nearly everyone in the Steam comment section played it approx. 40 hours, I think I can say it is a typical gamer-brand consum article. Lolz.

Since I saw today the new Saints Row Trailer, I think having a look at this game from 2009 is quite interesting.


My neck is still paralysing me more or less - Time for a sequel then : Hitman 2: Silent Assassin

Hitman 2: Silent Assassin

I tested the prequel two days before, now I am interested how the game move forward in the two years time that has passed since Hitman : Codename 47. Published in 2002, it should have some noticeable differences in graphics and user interface. Well, and it was the most successful game in the series.

[ FIRST RUN ]

Well. The music is awesome. Well. Fitting. The graphics are much better, still of course 2002, but the fact that I can not set it to 16:9, well, all the people look fat.

The voice overs are awesome. The user interface much bigger and more intuitive. The tutorial is not mandatory. So far so good. And the story is interesting. I think I will play this from time to time.

Still cant move - E.Y.E: Divine Cybermancy

Yes. And since my last test was so bad, I think I will get the taste from it out of my mouth with "E.Y.E: Divine Cybermancy" - hopefully.

It's still 9.99 Euro on Steam. I do not remember where I got it from, but I certainly did not pay this much for it. I know nothing about it.

When I pressed play it open in a low resolution after installing DirectX 9. 

Besides of everything, what exactly was Valve thinking when they did their FUCKING script system ?

[ FIRST RUN - STAY TUNED ]

O.K. This game is worth a deeper look. It feels like a japanese robot firm, William Gibson and some bored to death scifi 3D artists fell together into a mixer and somebody took the resulting slurry and pressed it through a sharp biscuit form.

[ AFTER A GOOD, BUT SHORT NIGHT OF SLEEP ]

This game still interests me. I am not so sure I am up to its story, though. It is a lot of reading, strange
vocabulary. God, am I conditioned to voice overs these days. I mean, come on, I played Ultima 7 Part II and thats PRACTICALLY A BOOK. So why is this here going on my nerves. I am not sure yet.

This game is from 2011. And it looks amazing for that. They used the Source Engine. Have to look that up.

One of these days where my neck thinks its dead - Agricultural Simulator: Historical Farming

 THIS SOFTWARE IS A JOKE. DO NOT TOUCH THAT "SIMULATOR", EVER
TRASHY
FRUSTRATING

Yes. You heard right :

Agricultural Simulator: Historical Farming

Well it was in a humble bundle. Where else. I mean I am not sure I would spend more than 0.25 cents on a ... Agricultural Simulator: Historical Farming ...

But then again. Maybe I learn something here ? What do I know about Farming ? I know BULLS*IT about Farming. Even more about HISTORICAL farming.

This could be a life changer ? Maybe I become a farmer ?

New Blog and another short look into a "classic" ?! - Hitman:Codename 47

 INTERESTING, BUT DUE TO SCRUFFY DESIGN A HARD NUT

First, I am currently working to move this blog to a new self written blog system which will revoluti...make it much more easy to get information presented here in a really innovatio....not so dumb way. It is a lot of work, so it will prolly take a while longer.

Secondly, I acquired Hitman:Codename 47, the first in this series, and since it is from 2000, 300mb big and was one of the first games to have ragdoll simulation (Wikipedia) I am kinda looking forward to this graphical ... whatever.

WTFIISE - WTF IT IS SO EARLY (lol) Review of a Steam Library cadaver "Ys Origin"

IF YOU DONT MIND 20 MINUTE LONG CUT SEQUENCES, THIS IS JAPAN PURE



After a short and nightmarish night I decided to use this two hours of "I am glad to be alive" time to just have a peek into another of my Steam Library decomposing software.

Its "Ys Origin". Honestly, I forgot about this one, I think it was a steam sale one-dayer, and for some reason I thought, yes, let me buy that for next to nothing. OK.

Uhh. It is from Falcom. Yes. These old-school pioneers of RPG in Japan. Wow. Nice. I wish they had an english homepage, too, though. Damn, this japanese website design is so funny (HOT INFO !), everytime. But enough of that.
