The reviews are in this week. My advice? Don't bother with Fusion Frenzy 2, the new "party" game for the 360. Only go near if you are a serious gamerpoint addict - the achievements are pretty easy - and can bear a fiddly, frustrating and tedious experience. Luckily the other two games reviewed have more to offer, particularly Okami the gorgeous new Capcom game that I would have given 5/5. The last review is Maelstrom, the new Euro RTS which is apparently pretty good but is a game I will probably never get round to playing - life is generally too short for RTS games.
Elsewhere Aleks gets an unwelcome visitor in Second Life. Talking of virtual words for grown-ups, Myst Online: Uru Live has relaunched. Originally binned after the original 3D offline game tanked, Uru promises puzzles and conundrums rather than rat-killing and loot. I'll be staying in Azeroth thanks but have got a sneaky feeling this could do well. Unlike Fusion Frenzy 2, of course, which will hopefully sink without a trace.
