F.E.A.R: Persues Mandate, Catan & Stratego

Perseus Mandate was kind of bad as an expansion. It doesn't really help further the story, more like reiterating a weaker version of it. The horror scenes are so cliche and drab that I don't feel scared, I feel bored. The graphics are soso (same as the original F.E.A.R), music is normal, gameplay is as usual to F.E.A.R. For an expansion, that's really bad. Sad to say, 3/10.

Been playing lots of board games now days, what with the lacking quality of most computer games and the lack of funds to purchase new Xbox360 games. My favourite games at the moment are Settlers of Catan and Stratego. Both are really easy to learn and play with very simple mechanics behind them but the level of thinking required to play it well is high. Much like Chess. Try them both out if you're into that sort of thing.

Meeting up with my friend this Friday, its her last week here before she ships off overseas for studies. We have a lot of history together and we're pretty close so I'm awful sad to think that she'll be going off soon. Maybe its for the best though.
