I'm currently not playing anything.

Staring at my STEAM window waiting for SiN Episodes: Emergence to unlock tomorrow.

I'm gonna be sitting here a while.

Unlucky

The whole episode thing seems a bit, well, it could do well, but it could also be a rip-off.

I'm waiting to see

Unlucky? Nope.

SiN Emergence is f*cking badass!

I've played it, beaten it, and started it up again. The game runs smooth as silk, I've got the graphics maxed, 4xAA at 1024*768 and runs flawless. A little of the old HL2 stutter bug at the start but that soon goes away. (plus Ritual is ready to issue a patch to fix it)

Story wise it starts great, I won't spoil anything but it gets going right away. Of course first bit of the first level is basically training. Getting you familiar with the game itself, but it soons picks up.

And damn can it be tough.

This is one of the first games that's made me work for it. Most games today (HL2, Doom 3, FEAR) have been easy to blow through. But SiN E is f*cking hard.
Several times I got overwhelmed and just had nowhere to go and nothing to do. And the difficulty system works great, I was getting head shots with no prob and baddies popped up with helmets. Started blasting away at torsos and they had tougher armor.

And the end... holy hell. It sets up the next episode perfectly, I can not wait. Gives you a brief preview and then credits. Love it, want more... *oes to play SiN*

AHHHH That game is rediculous! If is isn't slowing down from overloading the N64 (even with memory expansion pak) it is incredibly hard on the hardest setting. :)

I more or less hate the stealth level I'm on. Well, I'll get back on it sooner or later.
