Of demos and... well, just of demos
[Alex's Note: I changed the comic at the last minute so Ronan's first paragraph is useless. I suppose there isn't too much to say about this comic anyways, other than the fact that it was written way back in the day.]
I got a demo of "Prince of Persia". Christ! The cinematics are fucking long in that game! Well, they're not so long, it's just that you can't skip them and there are some really hard parts, and any time you die you have to watch the cinematic again, which resulted in me watching the "Prince" fall, get hit by a rock and then take off his shirt, at least 12 times. Ok, he's gorgeous, I get it, now stop already! But it is just a demo and the game's not done so I'll let it slide... for now.
Speaking of demos, I also got a chance to play and be disgusted by "Freedom Fighters" and "Conflict: Desert Storm". I'm going to tell you all a secret, I hate squad-based third person shooters! Why? Because they don't work. They way that "Conflict: Desert Storm" and "B.R.U.T.E. Force" are played you have to keep switching characters and for me it totally fucks up the flow of the game. I like being one person, I cannot multi-task, so don't make me! "Freedom Fighters" was just terrible all around, but on the plus side, I never had change characters.
Well, for those of you living in the dark, I'm sorry for ranting about video games the whole time, but I just got the new demo disk so you wont have to go through this again until the next demo disk. Well, that's all the time I have. Enjoy!
