Sunday Afternoon ShackReviews

by jason bergman, Jan 25, 2004 10:02am PST

Gooooaaal!!! Yes, that really is my entire knowledge of soccer summed up in a single yell. Anyway, let's update the ShackReviews database, shall we? This week we've got five new and recent titles for you, including the sequel to the well-received Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance. As usual, if there's a game you want to review but don't see in the database, check first and then submit it! (And don't blame me if a game you never submitted isn't added!)

Note that although some places are selling it already, Silent Storm doesn't officially become available in North America until tomorrow, so that won't be added for another week. Anyway, I've been playing through Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, and you know what? I don't particularly like it. Granted I'm only a third of the way through it, but so far I'm getting really bored with the endlessly repetitive combat and simplistic jump puzzles. Yes it's gorgeous, but once the shock of seeing those stunning animations wears off, you're left with what appears to be a particularly average game. Like I said, I'm only a third of the way through it, so hopefully it'll get better, because I'd heard so many great things about this game that I'm really disappointed so far.
