  Loving When Games Arrive 4 Days Early

  

  I would never lie to you all. This game is going to be my most played alongside Modern Warfare 2.
  
  It's Battlefield: Bad Company on steriods. And I'm loving it.
  You all know the gamertag. If you manage to get a hold of it you know what to do.

  Kyntexx Fridays 18/09/09 -- Really Wish I Did This More...

  I'm going to make more of a habit in doing a blog on Gamespot from now on. It's nice to have a sense of stability in life so I'll stick to a nice schedule of minimum once a week :-). I think I'll call these ones.... Kyntexx Friday [yeah I know - real original] - so much to talk about so let's get right into it.

  
  Need For Speed: Shift
  
  

  
  Now I will admit I was quite disappointed with the video review of this game from Gamespot. No attention paid to the revolutionary new cockpit driving experience. No proper mention of the matchmaking in which it seperates the men from the boys [aggressive from true-line racers]. And the driver viewable in the video seemed as though he was deliberately horrible [let's just hope it was deliberate.] Nevertheless, I will be getting this game in the post in a few hours so I'll defeinitely be posting my own review on the game, as well as my plans to review all the games I own [such a task].

  
  Assassin's Creed 2

  

  Assassin's Creed 2 has been on my wishlist ever since I completed the first game. Although there were complaints of the repetitiveness, I thoroughly enjoyed the experience in playing this game - from the gameplay to the breathtaking scenery. And now we will all soon embark on yet another magnificient journey, taking the control of Ezio Auditore de Firenze, a nobleman of Florence from 1476. The videos that have been surfacing on this game have made things seem ever-more exciting, and this is definitely on the pre-order list.

  
  Fifa 10 up, PES 2010 down.

  

  So I downloaded the Fifa 10 demo before it was even showing on the Spotlight section of the Dashboard on the 360. And was immediately blown away. It plays just like it's predecessor, but the small things make things so much better.

  The addition of 360 degree movement is a BIG step in football games. It really does set the pace for PES 2010 [which i'll get to in a second.] - I fouled an opponent and the players continued moving. I was left just watching them as they went into taking a quick free kick [another great addition]. The animations are much more swift and flow with each other perfectly. The commentary still hits on things that isn't really happening, or just doesn't match up with what's taking place, but Fifa 09 brought tons of realism to the genre and that will without a doubt grow with the release of Fifa 10.

  PES 2010 demo I downloaded a few hours ago. The gameplay is the same as it's been for about 3 years. The graphics have improved but there is a lack of facial animations that made Gerrard's face move minimally as he shot a goal past the keeper. Unfortunately I think Konami are going to lose some more fans this year.

  
  Modern Warfare 2

  

  The big dog. The massive one that is on everyone's minds. The huge release that is Modern Warfare 2.

  Now obviously this along with many other games are on my pre-order list [I'm actually getting the Prestige Edition, which I will unleash on here when I get it] so I won't rattle on too much about it. But it wouldn't be a good blog without a MW2 mention right?

  Please stay tuned for a NFS Shift review very soon. Out.

  Killzone 2 First Impressions

  Many times I've addressed games as being groundbreaking to an extent, and really really addictive. But this game.....

  I cannot, stress enough - how fantastic this game is. It's so BEAUTIFULLY put together - and multiplayer is VERY dynamic and impressive.
  
  Every time I load up the game I watch the intro movie. Every time. Because it is that jaw-dropping you just don't ever get bored of it. The campaign is proving extremely intense and exciting. I jumped straight into it on the hardest difficulty.

  I'll update more in the coming days. But wow - just wow.
