Darksiders - 8/10 - Surprise hit
Dead Nation - 8/10 - Cooperative heaven
Mafia 2 - 7/10 - Awesome story journey, no mess about fun
God of War - 6/10 - Good Puzzles, Good story, poor fighting, unforgivably bad camera
GOW3 put me off the series having never playing the first 2. How are you finding the 3rd game? Have seen you playing it on my friend list.
From a technical stand point 3 is the most amazing game I have played, some of the large set piece fights are simple jaw dropping. Visually and technically its a master piece, But ultimately its the same old game underneath.
I just don't know whether I should rate GoW3 9/10 or 7/10, if I was playing this in 5years time like I sort of have done with GoW1/2 it would definitely be a 7/10.

As you like your trophies there is a glitch for getting the 1000 hit combo;) May save you actually doing it:D
The last game I played (last night) was Deadly Premonition. I became so engrossed in it I ended up going to bed over an hour later than planed and I had to be up for work this morning, lol. Anyway, I completed the first chapter in just over six and half hours. Awesome stuff!
Last night I played 'Project Gotham 4'. I know it's old but I just bought it new as a bundle with Sega Superstars Tennis for £5.00. I will score it 8.0 out of 10.. Enjoyable racer
Also a bit of 'Darksiders'. 9 out of 10. Up there with 'Bayonetta' but more puzzley
Oh and 'Transformers: War For Cybertron'. Surprisingly good. 8.0 out of 10. Escalation mode is great fun in multiplayer.
Last game that I played (tonight) was CoD4 online - I don't do online but I did tonight and I had fun! Okay, I got owned most of the time but no one cheated and I did get a few good kills here and there.
Rift (PC) - 8/10
Set it to ultra and put my monitor to a refresh rate it couldn't support which almost set the computer on fire need to upgrade PC (again) before I return
Pokemon B&W (DSi) - 7/10
Not as good as HG/SS but not yet completed
also ~ gotta catch em all
It's a competent FPS with some driving/sailing/flying whatever and some 'go here, press this button but only when we tell you to' distrations. The enemy has the AI of a goldfish which can be funny, stupid but funny.
Video
Mostly functional with the occasional stunning vista mountain range, many buildings and scenery can be destroyed which is cool.
Audio
The sound effects are stunning, regular gunfire cracks loud, larger explosions make an almighty din.
Story
West versus East nonsense, Theres not much to the carachters but theirs some funny moments, Sarge especially gives the impression he would rather be anywhere than on some crack mission, feels like being in dad's army rather than special forces and is all the better for it.
Won't play it again but it was fun while it lasted.
Last game I played was Final Fantasy Tactics: War of the Lions for PSP. I'm just over 30 hours into it and it's really good. I'm obsessed with leveling jobs up so I'll probably be playing it for a while.

FIFA 11 - 2/10 or 10/10 - depends if I'm on a good run online
Also a bit of 'Darksiders'. 9 out of 10. Up there with 'Bayonetta' but more puzzley

Just a mess.
Bayonetta
Alright, doesn't justify the praise it gets. It's DMC in knickers.
