So I bought this game yesterday at Target on sale for $9.98 because you can't beat a ten dollar 360 game and it looked ok. And it is mainly. It really, really, REALLY wants to be Half-Life 2; dropping you, the lone freedom fighter in a hi-tech suit, in with a bunch of rebels fighting against an evil invading force lead by shadowy, possibly alien figures and aided by a turncoat scientist who even puts out public service announcements from giant TV screens just like another certain turncoat scientist from a more popular series of games, hmm... It's not all bad though; the suit in this game lets you slow, stop and reverse time for different effects during play. Like I had to use reverse to rebuild a hallway collapsed by a missile strike. Or you can stop time, grab an enemy's weapon, then kill him with it. I haven't made it too far yet, but for ten bucks, it was definitely worth it (plus I bought Bully too, so if I get bored, I can just switch to that.)

Time Shift is a great game even if it really does try to be a Half Life game. Bully, ehhh I really just didn't like the feel of it and it was made by Rockstar who also made GTA. I just really didn't like Bully just because It wasn't a game where I could blow shit up with rockets and stab people with knifes.

Time Shift looked decent enough from what I've seen. It just came out a a bad time. I had just finished Bioshock, The Orange Box, and Halo 3 when it came out. I wasn't having another FPS just then. That's also probably why I never finished Resistance. For 10 bucks you can't go wrong though.

Bully, on the other hand, I'm a big fan of. I might even like it more than GTA 4. it's got a great soundtrack.

I'm a big fan of taking somebodies gun form then and killing them with it.

What I do is stop time, take there guns that start time again, they act wimpy then. Then I just shoot them in the crotch till there dead then I do it some more.
