Toki Tori (Wii)
Just two levels on this tonight. I’d hoped to have done more, but 2-7 was far too hard. Well, it wasn’t in the end, I was just looking at it the wrong way.
Grand Theft Auto IV (360)
So I tooled up and retried the mission, completing it without any problems this time. After which it was time for Roman’s wedding – a wedding which I was told was going to take place at 10am. I hung around a safe house, shopped for a new suit, and went for a walk while waiting. But the game never told me where to actually go. Come 1pm, I decided to save my game, and then immediately afterwards got a call …
Beerating: Cobra (5.0%)
Yes, it’s cheap lager, but it’s exactly the sort of lager you’re supposed to have with spicy food, and unlike Stella it isn’t vile, and unlike Fosters it isn’t tasteless. Beerating: 3/5
One pound and sixteen pence
For a litre of petrol. One pound sixteen. Just over four years ago, when I got my current car, a tank of petrol would cost me around £30. Now it’s £47. I don’t even have a choice, either – I can’t manage without my car because public transport in Norfolk is pretty much non-existent. Rubbish.
Grand Theft Auto IV (360)
I think I’m almost done! I went back to the main story, and found Darko Brevic – who I decided not to kill. I don’t know if that was the right decision or not, but since I’ve saved everyone I could so far, and Roman was quite insistent I spare him, I thought it best. And then I attempted what I assume is the final mission. I was given the choice of working with Dimitri, or killing him. I chose …
Ninja Gaiden II Demo (360)
It was very easy and felt like Kung Fu Panda only with more gore. I’ve been told the full version is harder and more varied, but if the demo doesn’t win me over I’m not likely to buy the full game. Mind you, I’ve done it before and everything worked out for the best…
Grand Theft Auto IV (360)
Just vigilante missions again today, and completed them all. Which netted me another achievement! Some of them were pretty good too – far better and more varied than the usual stuff from previous games in the series. I then played online for a while, on Ranked Deathmatch. Picked up another two achievements there as well, even though I didn’t do especially well.
Okami for the Wii
I never bought the PS2 version of Okami, but am looking forward to the Wii release on the 13th June (in the UK at least – US gamers have it already, I believe). The whole drawing thing seems to make so much more sense on the Wii. Anyway, here’s a video! From the press release: ≈ ?•kami tells the story of a mythical sun god who sets out to restore a dismal world, decimating the forces of evil who stand in …
Grand Theft Auto IV (360)
Just Vigilante missions again today. I’ve finished all the Most Wanted missions in the Bohan/Broker areas, and completed two in Alderney too. I’m also over 51 hours in now. And I’ve still not completed it. It’s also just about the only game I’ve played for almost two weeks now too. Yes, it is very good.
My desktop this month (June ’08)
Is this going to be a recurring thing? Who knows! Anyway, this is my iMac desktop at the moment.
Grand Theft Auto IV (360)
Mainly spent my time on vigilante missions today, getting the achievement for taking down 20 criminals found on the police computer, and then completing all the Algonquin “Most Wanted” missions. After that I did Gravelli’s (or whatever his name is – old bloke in the hospital) next mission – blowing up some vans filled with cocaine. I took an indirect route around some rooftops, which made it much easier than it originally looked. Then I retried Phil’s mission getting some …
