Nice read. Thanks for posting ^^
I have a few questions:
1. Mirror's Edge - Did the controls force you to use the D-pad at all? I ask because this could determine whether I buy it on the PS3 or 360 (if you do have to use the D-pad I'll get the PS3 version because I hate the one on the 360).
2. Left 4 Dead - Were there any obvious graphical glitches? I've watched video clips and seen players go through walls rescuing people from falling off of buldings, and zombies that walk through stuff as if they're ghosts.
I've also noticed that others players are highlighted in a blue or red colour, so that you can see them through walls and stuff. Does that look natural when you're playing it? Because it tends to stand out quite badly when I watch clips.
3. Fallout3 - Does it look good on a HD screen? I'm not really sold from what I've seen so far and this is one of my concerns.
Another concern is whether the combat works - would you feel comfortable, for example, taking on a group of enemies using just the normal shooter mechanics, or would you have to resort to that thing where you pause the game and choose a specific target area (sorry, forgot what that's called)?
4. Motorstorm 2 - You didn't like the 1st game by the sounds of it. I loved the 1st game and it's one of my favourite racers - my question is, will Motorstorm 2 appeal to fans of the 1st game?

1. Mirror's Edge was only demoed on the PS3. Talking to the devs around, they said they love the Playstation 3 platform and that it was lead. The game played very well on the dualshock 3. With the exclusive DLC available on the PS3, I think you shuold definetely get it on the PS3 if you have that platform.
2. Left 4 Dead felt very natural while playing. I didn't notice any glitches, but than again, the gameplay is so frantic, you don't really have time to.
3. Fallout 3 looks really good. I'm not going to say it outdoes Uncharted, Gears, or MGS4, however, it looks upper tier, and the art direction lends to that.
The game doesn't play like a shooter. Remember there are RPG mechanics. Its a lot of stop, menu, shoot. I feel like this might become irritating in the future.
4. Motorstorm 2, fixes the issues I had with the first game. If you liked the first, I'm sure you will be more than satisfied with the sequel.
