I didn't think much of the first two Disney Infinity releases. While each featured the still impressive Toy Box mode, the Play Set campaigns were often terrible. That, at least going on the Twilight of the Republic set, has changed. Although clearly, and rightly, aimed at a young audience, Disney Infinity 3.0 feels like a game I'd gladly let my son play (if you was old enough). It's not a horribly made rush-job, and the modes on top of the campaign are excellent. Sure, it'll cost a fortune if you invest in everything that's being released, but at least it's not Charlie and the Chocolate Factory the Chuffing Video Game!

Look, I've blathered on long enough about Metal Gear and PES for a while, so let's talk about some other games I've been playing. Mainly, Until Dawn, a game so fascinatingly silly that I can't wait to play more of it.

Astute readers may remember me playing the preview code of the game and, short of context, worrying what the fuck was going on. The final game, as expected, provides more context and as such more enjoyment. But it's the characters - all slasher staples, of course - and the way in which they can die that appeals. Until Dawn has a slow build, and it pays off: by the time Bad Man turns up you actually start to feel sorry for these idiots, and would rather not see any of them die.

Good game, that.

Is it just me or does Mike remind anybody else of Ben from Hollyoaks? You know, the guy who dated Izzy for a while and then kinda just disappeared? Yeah, him.

Anyway, Until Dawn's dialogue is often so bad that it may as well just be a late-night episode of Hollyoaks. But I love it. I'm three hours in and nobody's dead yet, but it can't be too long until the body count starts racking up. And it'll probably start with mine. For a silly slasher horror Until Dawn can be surprisingly scary, and it's already made me jump out of my skin a fair few times. I'm never looking through a pair of binoculars again... But still, I'm enjoying it immensely, and I can easily see it being part of the conversation when it comes to discussing Game of the Year in a few months' time.
