After finishing up FEAR2, which overall in the end I found to be fairly repetitive, it's not a bad game it', though it just feel repetitive and it very similar to the first, just now you know whats pretty much coming for you.
Checked out the Scott Pilgrim game demo, I really like it, but on the X360 it just feel really sluggish at times, the movement and fighting just feel a bit sloppy compared to other fighters, unless its supposed to be like that to give it some "retro" feel. I just found it annoying.
I played through Shank which I think it s a really great 2D side scrolling beat em up. It does have it flaws like most games, and isn't a very long game, but I kind of like that. I find these days some games can just be full of filler and go on much longer than they need to killing any fun. The game has a few unlocks, and it's generous in where the check points are so you don't have to go to far back if you die (unless you play Hard mode, no check points there).
I checked out a small part of Lara Craft game and from what I've played so far I've liked. It's a little different so hopefully it stays that way, isn't too hard and doesn't want to make me rage quite, unlike the last boss in Shank, which until I figured out you only had to do one simple thing he was a piece of piss.
Oh for anyone having the achievement saving issue I think its for "Just getting started' where you kill 20 guys and get 5G, but it gets screwed up in the demo if you try to unlock it then. You need a USB stick, I used a Sandisk titanium 2GB one. Let the 360 format it or whatever it does under system options first. Then start Shank, go into options, select the USB stick as your storage device and start a new game, play till you kill 20 guys and get the achievement. Quit the game, unplug the USB stick, then go back into the game. You might want to set the HDD back as the save device under setting, but now you should have the achievement and your old save file.
