The Suffering is Over...

Just finished The Suffering for XBox. For those unfamiliar with the game, it's a "survival horror" shooter (first person or third; you decide) set in a prison on an island off the coast of New England - sort of an Atlantic Alcatraz. Though the ending was a little...goofy (if you've played it to the end, you know what I mean), over all I thought it was a great game. I haven't played the Resident Evil games or the other survival horror console games, so I don't really have anything to compare it to, but I liked it all the same. Definitely not for the kids, though (besides the extreme violence, Samuel Jackson would have a tough time keeping up with the language in this game...)

Since Fable and Halo 2 aren't going to be here for some time, perhaps I can finally play the Morrowind expansions now. I finished the standard game some time ago, and I've been meaning to play the full thing. Best computer RPG ever :) I read someone commenting on how boring they thought it was, and how they gave up on it after a few hours. I can't understand that, particularly since there's so much to this game, that's not even remotely enough time to come to a judgement. Maybe they were expecting a Diablo-style clickfest, rather than an in-depth RPG. Oh, well. I don't care enough about such a wrong opinion to devote any more thought to it ;)

Not that I don't like Diablo; I do. Just two different styles of game.
