Get caned on the Kane Edition
April 22, 2007One of my cousins from Malaysia (Li Yi) visited Tasmania with a few of her friends. They stayed in a Villa Townhouse, and travelled around the entire state. It was lovely having them around. My only regret is that they can’t visit more often. But like our family, they too have commitments at home.
I’ve been playing Tiberium Wars since it was released. I don’t have a particuarly high opinion of EA, mostly due to how badly they treat their developers. That dislike was borne out by the extremely poor ‘Collectors Edition’ packaging for this game. $100AUS for a bonus DVD which only contained a few videos? A pathetic ripoff. Fortunately, the developers have done a great job with the game itself. It isn’t the classic that C&C was, but it’s visually appealing with enjoyable gameplay. The Single-Player campaign is strong. As usual with C&C, the Nod Campaign is more intriguing and exciting than the straightlaced GDI campaign. My only crticism is I wish they’d added an Risk-style World map as well as the campaign, as in BFME2. Apart from that, I’d give it 7.5/10.
Doctor Who is back on the air in the UK. From all reports, it looks like they’ve done a great job…again. The new companion (Freema Agyeman) is attracting plenty of positive attention. But the big question is - just what does Russell. T. Davies have planned for the third season? We’ve had a Dalek invasion, a fantastic Dalek/Cyberman showdown. Just how is he going to top that? Time will tell…
