Human Revolution mother fuckers! Finally played it only four days late damn being away for a week miss out on pre order goodness. Anyway got to the first boss and he was kickin my ass so i gave up for the night, its a bleeding difficult game but in the best kind of rewarding way that doesn't get frustrating, anybody whos played the first one already understands the themes which make it so good playing on the continuous evolution of technology and how were going to become dependant on it, corrupt govenments taking away our freedom to make us safe and all that it raises loads of moral questions which are expertly handled in the vain of "Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep" (the novel Blade Runner was based for you lesser geeks). So far the story with these moral polictical dilemmas are fantastic and so engaging i absolutly love it and it plays like a first person Metal Gear Solid game thats set in a Blade Runner themed world i mean whats not to love there?
Anyway theres no point me going on about how deep it is you can find that anywhere on the internet i'll save it till after i complete the game but it did get me thinking, the story and the themes and what it represents is what Tron Legacy should have been, it should have had that deep underlaying message that reflects what computers and technology has become today and Clu should have embodied the growing laziness and dependancy. Eee thats why i think a lot of people hate the film, i think there being to harsh on it, i think its not that it is a bad film (well it does have pretty stupid moments but not THAT bad), its more of how its just disapointing, and it could have been so much more, it have been an artful message like Dues Ex rather than just being eye candy. However knowing that about Tron does make Dues Ex feel so much more special because it is a gem in a demolished mine where so many other games have failed. But yes it is so far deffinatly game of the year followed shortly by Portal 2 however Batman: Arkham City and Skyrim have yet to be released and to me are the only things that have a chance.
