Timeshift is a bad game and you shouldn't play it.

This may not come as a surprise to regular readers, but I didn't enjoy playing through Timeshift very much at all. Having finished it didn't improve it either.

There's an absolute non-ending, to fit in with the games complete non-story, I guess. Being able to play around with time was cool the first few times. Unfortunately for Timeshift, those first few times, and the next thousand, happened in other games.
Timeshift's few mildly clever time related puzzles are thrown into a bad light by the release of Braid, a fantastic game featuring a lot of very clever time puzzles. Also great writing and beautiful visuals. Play Braid.
Do not play Timeshift.
Dark Sector is on the cards for play soon, but my Dual Shock 3 arrived today, so I'll probably do a PS3 game next. Ratchet and Clank maybe. I want Siren: Blood Curse. I'm not sure I want to download it, because I like having lots of boxes on my shelf and the PS3 section is pretty slim right at the moment. It'll cost $10 more buy the game on a disk, but it will also save me 9gb worth of downloading. Unfortunately the real version of it is called Siren: New Translation, which is a significantly worse title.
