Viva Pinata and BFMEII

[doobiwan]

Yay, so I finally ditched Chrome hounds and got myself some decent games

VP is really cute, my wife and I are enjoying playing together except I want to rip the darn spade out of her hands and dig in a **** straight line

I'm also quite impressed with BFMEII at this stage, the controls do work, and the game works. The camera could be a bit higher ad some of the stuff could be a bit more intuitive, but overall it's fun, and I'm enjoying it. It makes me all the more amped for C&C3 and Halo Wars.

Oh so you didnt get into the slow flow of Chromehounds? Pity. We needed some new cannon fodder in our Chromehounds clan, although I must admit i have also had other games stealing my time away from it!

That was pretty much the problem, it's not that it's a bad game. I could see how it could be fun, but the single player game was as bland as eating oatmeal raw from the box.

And the MP thing was exactly that, I played once online and it was fun but a total mess and the host kicked everyone after 5 minutes.

Did you join a local or foreign host? Local is always best, specially for Chromehounds. But alas, i bet you got your hands full with Viva Piñata anyhow.

Yeah, I need to start my own garden, at the rate we're going I'm going to take that "seed shovel" and crack my wife over the head with it! Why the heck can't she just plant grass in a straight line
