Echocrome

Yesterday, I updated my ps3 firmware, checked out the new playstation store, and downloaded two new demos: Ironman and Echocrome. Ironman was almost unplayable. I didn't play more than a minute, but it just seemed awful. Maybe I'll give it a second chance... after finals.

But Echochrome... where to begin? It's stylish, simplistic, sexy, any other complimentary S word you can think of, and most importantly, extremely addictive. This is where I get confused. The demo is short, there are five tutorial puzzles followed by five actual puzzles, and yet I can't stop playing it over and over again. I know the solution to every puzzle, can blast through it in less than five minutes, but still can't stop myself. Every play through, there is something new to appreciate, some other solution that wasn't apparent the last time through. Hell, sometimes I actually forget the solution and have to figure it out again... I love it. Please don't make me wait another second for this game to come out. I was excited for gta4 but now all that's on my brain is Echocrome.

...Echochrome

UPDATE: Ironman is definitely not unplayable... it is, however, terrible.
