The joys of Playstation
I'm not saying that the PS3 is necessarily BETTER than, say the XBox 360, but it's the only console I own so...although it actually IS better you know...but that's sort of beside the point. The point of this post is that I haven't played a PC game in ages, not since my MoM post I think (which was many moons ago - aka 'ages').
The only computer-related stuff I've engaged in recently has been on my mobile (not relevant here) and on the PS3. Been doing a bit of The Force Unleashed and Lego Star Wars, the Complete Saga. But more than anything I've been playing Ratchet & Clank! Not sure what appeals so - this is quite unlike the stuff I usually play, which is RPGs and strategy. But Ratchet & Clank is just...great fun. I can't pin it down more accurately than that.
It all started with this game; Quest for Booty. It's the second in a trilogy. I got it for free after Sony got hacked earlier this year, and for wont of anything better to do I started playing it. It's not really a full game. Very short. But packed with fun.
I already owned the last game in the trilogy, A Crack in Time. Got it along with the console last summer. Played it a little, but it never caught on. So it sat on my shelf for a while, until I got Quest. But once I was done with Quest I felt a need to play the first game...first...so Crack has to wait a tab bit longer.
So I trawled through some game stores and finally found the first game, Tools of Destruction. It was used and I got it for next to nothing. Now I've played through it and is ready to go back and finish A Crack in Time. Good times!
Someday, when I'm done with Ratchet and Clank, I might play some real games again :-)
