I've had a nice healthy boost this afternoon by finishing Prince of Persia. I got 430 points for killing the last mini boss, the final boss and doing the speed runs (which really weren't hard).

I haven't changed my mind about the game though I look slightly more favourable towards the combat than I did mid game. My biggest hatred are the quick time flying/wall running sections which ruin the whole experience. They're boring/infuriating/repetetive and imo have no place in a modern game.

I'm undecided whether to go for the last few seeds (I'm on 840ish) and fight the final boss again for the combo achievement or just sell it and move on. I'll ponder it tonight.

Next:

Either Dead Space; which I'm going to play through once, on easy, it's too scary to think about playing it more, or start Tomb Raider (probably get DS out the way). I'm also very very very tempted to get the Fable 2 DLC tonight

Do both in one go - you have to beat him again to get the last light seed, do the combos on your way through, wouldn't take that long

If you do, let me know what it's like I'm hoping for average, in which case it can wait

I do quite like PoP but I'm not playing it obsessively, it's just quite nice to drop in on every now and then. Feels to me like a mindless Blockbuster film, ultimately very flawed but entertaining nonetheless and keeps me occupied.

I did get the die less than 100 times and finish in 12 hours achievements so 1000/1000 is technically very doable...

Hmmm, Abooie will pile 100's of hours into The Last Remnant, re-battle through battles close to 10 hours in replay time, find every little detail and get both infuriated and angry in trying to complete it... but he is contemplating not putting around a couple of hours into getting the last 140 points from Prince of Persia .
