Big Country

[LPMiller]

Still hot.

Last night I tried out the demo for....oh hell, what was it. Dark Country? Dark...something. I dunno. It's about going back in time to save certain people important to the time line. You fight in WWII, the Civil War, Little Big Horn, stuff like that. Whatever that one is called.

I dunno, it wasn't very good. It was like a game from 5-10 years ago, old graphics, AI that was kind of stupid, and really bad voice work. Yet, it seemed to have a sort of charm to it, even as the plot made zero sense. I don't see paying 50 bucks for it, though. It's a game you pay 10 bucks for when you are really bored and think, "eh, it was worth 10 bucks.

Personally, I need a new game pretty badly, but there just isn't anything out. Dead zone. Luckily, we are coming up to prime release time, starting with Batman (awesome demo) so the dry spell is almost done.
