    Simple review thread now that rAge is over I'm keen to see which games you played, what you liked and didn't.

    So to start

    The good

    AC IV
    F1 2013
    Batman origins
    Southpark
    Forza
    Skylanders swap force

    The bad

    The crew
    CoD ghosts
    Fifa
    Need for speed
    Telkom stand

    The ugly

    Dunno man, got it from 2 sources. PS4 stand was packed, while the Xbone stand was virtually empty.

    The PS4 stand was packed because it was so badly designed that only a handfull of people could fit in at any given time to see the consoles in actions.
    The Xbone stands were free flowing and had lines longer than the food stalls with people lining up to play.

    I was very amped to see the PS4 in action but was sadly let down by their execution.

    At the very least get a nice big screen above the section mirroring one of the screens so people can see it in action without having to cramp into your 1 meter wide alley. There was so much wrong with how many of the stalls were organized. The best one by far for me was the indie gamer section. They interacted with the crowds, there were many playable games. Enough room to move about. Just overall great stuff.

    I felt bad for the artists, the got shafted with crappy layouts.

    The ninty stand was good as always. Telkom was just taking up space but along with Alienware there was some good work with the cosplayers which I had to applaud. Safact being there was an absolute joke. It's like the secretary general of the UN hanging out at a blackmarket arms trade trying to preach Taoism.

    Both were pretty bad but it was more like the Zuma vs Malema

    Fair enough. What a pity though.

    By the way, I realize the Dendi thing was for the best, because in all our jealous rage (I'm here all week ), some of us were going to hunt you down
