Okay, I know, it's not really a high number because I'm sure that a lot of people have more than 2000 profiles but still, I've reached a new milestone today, with a lot of casual games (trying to submit all the sequels), DS (and the usual things I'm not playing: Imagine series for example) and...

iPhone. Yes, iPhone!

iPhone... Strangely, I don't feel stressed when I'm submitting iPhone games, not as it was when the section opened. And I should be worrying about it, I mean, I can honestly say that more than 90% of the profiles in the section were submitted by me.

The strange thing is that nearly nobody is contributing in it... apart the usual members that were already helping me to fill the sections like Vermillion or Intoxication.

Guys, I know you missed me but for the iPhone, don't tell me that because I've tried to give a good base for the section who was poor at the time, you thought that

Well, I'm not writing a review because I didn't finish the game but I can't help myself to make a comparison with Dark Motives on the same platform.

Dark Motives is perhaps the clone of the PC version but at least, we had some liberties and the reflex to play like on PC for those having already that experience. You were free to choose what you wanted to do, to ask questions by yourself, to choose the tool, etc. etc. It was just missing some music, some hard evidence to collect,...

Here on Deadly Intent, the DS is a collection of four new cases (and I can truly say that it is sufficient when you see some minigames), exclusive to it and not being a clone of the PC. True, when you see what you need to do on PC, what is proposed in DS is more inspired by the mechanics of CSI: NY.

If at least we have some new music, the new team and cartoon graphics that are really good, I'm just having some neg

Don't look at me like that, I've finally bought the last CSI game for PC... and DS. Yeah, I know, putting 54 euros for two games that will perhaps not be as good as Hard Evidence is a lot but at least, I've box scans, another reason to write FAQs and...

Uhm... well, perhaps trying to get back to the old way of playing CSI. Don't get me wrong, CSI: New York is interesting for the graphics, the music and a new way of playing but well, I'm wondering if Telltale wouldn't have done better than Legacy Interactive... I'm still NOT having my golden star for analysis - labo, despite having done the right thing (according to Gamezebo - No, I'm not following their walkthrough, I'm playing without looking, only when I've finished a case and compared notes with it for the future .txt file which will appear on Neo, GF and Supercheats). And I've just noticed that the French version is having slight diff

Why the enthusiasm? Because I've finally updated my Achievement guide for TF2. I wasn't really in the mood for doing it when Spy vs Sniper was out and with FB, well, it has taken time to say to me "well, now, it's time to get order in it: Halloween is out, SvS is out since May, an achievement for Scout changed, new maps and new modes were out and perhaps you should add a section about hats as there are a looooot now".

I'm working on it since Saturday and I've finally managed to do the Sniper AND the Spy today with some information added or removed for the other classes.

Well, now that the thing is settled, I'm going back to CSI: NY game. Can I just strangle Legacy Interactive? Between hard minigames that shouldn't be so hard and the fact that despite doing everything right, some stuff aren't triggered in a good way.... Well, anyway, I'm going back to do again the second case for at least h

Don't look at me like that: I just wasn't in the mood for that game. But I've managed to write some parts during the year that passed and I've finished the fourth and fifth cases yesterday and today. The FAQ - in French - is submitted, just need to find words for the review...

At least, it's better and more accurate that the French walkthrough at one of the most known sites in my language. Not only it's better to read because it's not a text (but different sections) but also, it's not with false information. I'm always making sure of that.

Also, I've also continued Doom 3 and I still need to update the achievement guide for TF2 with spy, sniper and halloween. If only it wasn't a double update and if only it wasn't out during my FB addiction...

Now, I can truly play CSI: NY, now that I've finished what I considered as a condition sine qua non for making eventually a walkthrough.

Also, I hope

Uhm yeah, Arakawa is just amazing... I mean, she's giving a fuuuuulllllll of stuff for Royai fans (and thaaaaaat hug seen in preview.....).

Anyway, that's a good twist of plot, even if I'm waiting for a scanlation. Oh yeah, I forgot, it's the raw that's out and after the cliffhanger (can't wait to see it animated), it's good to see that Riza was still alive after the cut (a medical studend concluded that Riza could live for 15 minutes if she was applying a good pressure on her throat, because it wasn't a blood vessel - the carotid I think - that was "important" in term of instant death) and it's good to see that Mustang got again a scare (after Envy, remeeeeember when he was attacking Riza), well, now, I don't care about Mustang's whereabouts, I got a greeeeeeat scene - I mean, I don't care about what will happen, I just want to see if Arakawa will show us what will happen after the Homu

Yeah, Facebook (FB) is beginning to be a real displeasure for me. Not because I get bored by the games but because they're currently changing the layouts, that people with whom I'm playing are suddenly getting a fever of gifts everyday (I can't get under 50 requests, each time I'm reaching 80, the next second, I'm at 91) and that I got disconnected every five minutes yesterday without forgetting that games that aren't slow usually are now a pain in the ass in the speed of loading.

This is just a joke. Getting disconnected is something I hate. Or I have a virus (but my recent scan of monday says no) or FB is getting serious problems. I know that recently, they had some problems but I didn't know that it would become that!

The world of FB seems great but well, for us, users that were used to the old version, we're getting slowly exasperated by the problems.

I've already made disappeared some

After far too many 3-6 hour play sessions, I've finally completed my review of Risen for the site:



If you don't know about it, it's a PC RPG (coming to Xbox 360 in a few months), and is a spiritual successor to the Gothic games, which are simply fantastic.

The more attentive of you will notice it's my second review, when I said the first (for The Path) would be my only one. This was due to me being a stubborn arse that refused to score games. I still hate scores but I figured to heck with it, I would quit being a jerk and take one for the team. ;)

I don't plan to ever think very hard about the scores, or even take them remotely seriously; the intelligent folks will know from reading the review whether or not it's something they want to play, I think. But you know, Metacritic yadda yadda. :P

As I mention in the review, I didn't get time to complete the game, unfortunately. I
