A few games...

So I've been playing some games lately...imagine that :P

 

Sam and Max: The Devil's Playhouse "They Stole Max's Brain"

 

Episode three of The Devil's Playhouse has been recently released and just like all other things Sam and Max I can't recommend it enough.  Not my favorite episode of the season (that title goes to ep. 2) but still a really great episode and once again has me anxious for Episode 4.  If you've never played Sam and Max I really think you might want to give it a try, luckily The Devil's Playhouse is very friendly to newcomers. 

 

LEGO Harry Potter Demo

 

I love LEGO games.  Perhaps it was a bad demo, maybe I was just having an off day, but something seemed "off" about this game.  I still want to playthrough the game as I do love LEGO games and I like Harry Potter, but it just felt weird playing for some reason.  The reviews have been relatively positive though so maybe it's just me I dont know. 

 

Disgaea Infinite:

 

While I wasn't sure how I felt about a Disgea visual novel I have to say after a few hours with it I'm really loving it.  Disgaea's world and it's characters are a perfect fit for this type of game and if you're a fan of the series you might want to give this a try.  The game has you trying to stop an assassination by traveling through time and possessing other characters to change the outcome of the future.  Also the main character is a Prinny so added points. :P

 

Hexyz Force:

 

I've been playing this a lot recently.  I never really heard of it up until watching the GiantBomb Quicklook but so far I'm really liking it.  There's not really anything so far that seems too different than your standard turn based RPG's but I do like being able to choose between two different stories to play and the fact that you can avoid battles.  So far so good though and I do need to start getting into the item synthesis so I'm sure that'll open things up as well.

 

Upcoming:

So I'm pretty excited to see Persona 3 coming out this next tuesday for the PSP.  I'll probably pick that up at some point...hopefully. 

 

I'll be posting more blogs and such now that setting up my website is complete (though still in beta).  That and work was taking up a lot of time as you can imagine :P 

 

On another note, what do you all think about PlayStation Plus?  I'm still leaning back and forth between it, anyone purchased it yet?  What do you think?
