I really quite fancy Wolverine myself. Hoping someone I know buys it so I can borrow it, but more likely I’ll pick up a rental when I go back to LoveFilm.

I too traded in Star Ocean, I figured it best to make a trade profit whilst I’m not playing it than wait til it’s lost its value, so traded that and Sacred 2 in for Tales of Vesperia.

So far, I’ve enjoyed the Bob sections the most They seem great for puzzles so far.

Wolverine is ridiculously blood thirsty! So I can see your point if gore/blood is not your thing.

I’m much the same with Guitar Hero:World Tour but I couldn’t resist it for the price, just for extra songs really.

Looking forward to your Sacred 2 review, I should be getting Wolverine next on rental sounds like a good ‘no brains required’ action game, I did enjoy the demo on PSN but it’s one of those I wouldn’t want to pay full price for.

I enjoyed Monsters vs Aliens but it got very repetitive and samey and became a bit of a drag towards the end. There are some pretty clever puzzle sections in it and you can tell plenty of thought went into the design. The inclusion of a co-op feature, where a second player can basically ride shotgun, makes it perfect (I presume) for parents to play along with their children.

I wasn’t blown away by the Wolverine demo although, as I play most superhero games, I’m sure I’ll pick it up at some point. Might be a bit too much blood for me. I have to say I wasn’t hugely impressed by Guitar Hero World Tour. They’ve made no effort to whittle down the songs in each career mode to just those that are actually fun to play on the individual instruments. It’s much more enjoyable in “quickplay” when you can pick and choose your favourites.
