It’s an explosion of cute, right in your eyes! Despite the fact that Rare haven’t made a decent game in about 10 years, I went ahead and bought Viva Pinata anyway. Mainly for my wife, but also because it’s a bit Animal Crossing-y and Harvest Moon-y and I liked both of them. And it’s great. And cute. I put about two hours into it so far. I started off with a ruined, untidy garden, and some woman called Leafos gave …
I have indeed completed it again. This time, however, on “Crusin’” mode (otherwise known as “Normal” to Ouendan veterans). “Lets Dance” gave me a few problems, and I had to do the finale (“Jumpin’ Jack Flash”) about 5 times, but I finally did it and moved on up to the next difficulty level. ACE.
I think this is the first time in about a month I’ve actually gone to see Crazy Redd. And there was no point in doing so, as there was nothing in his tent worth looking at. So why I bought the widescreen TV he had for sale, I don’t know. Much of my time today was spent weeding. Again. Surely it isn’t right that there are easily 30 or more weeds every single day? And they’re just the ones I …
Blimey. It’s taking a while to get anywhere with this one. I’ve spent quite a while talking to the accused, examining the crime scene, talking with some witnesses, and all sorts, and I’ve still not even started the trial yet. And three people have psyche-locks on them. Two of them have FOUR locks. This case is going to take forever, isn’t it? And why is Adrian Andrews a woman?
After this weekend’s dual diversions of Elite Beat Agents and Tony Hawk’s Downhill Jam, it was back to the serious matter of acquitting people of murder. I’ve made a start on Case 4, the last one in the game. So far, I’ve been at a fancy awards ceremony, someone has died, Maya has been kidnapped, and lots of people from the previous game have reappeared. I haven’t even started investigating the murder yet, and I’ve been playing for about half …
Whilst browsing the Home Learning College website, looking for training courses, I found one for a “Microsoft¬¨?Ü Certified Desktop Support Technician”. OK, so it’s not what I’m looking for, but the thing that struck me about the course was the machine the guy in the picture was using. It’s a MacBook. Certified Desktop Support Technician Course
It would appear that Cyrano has vanished already. He isn’t in his house, and having spent a good 20 minutes hunting for him, I can only conclude he’s gone. Stupid animal. Mallary is still ill. She may die soon. I haven’t given her any medicine at all. There’s a reason for that.
Onward through the next hardest mode then, and I didn’t have many problems until reaching the Canned Heat mission, which was really difficult. I finally managed to get through it, but I got the “not perfect” ending – the first time I’ve got one of them. I then unlocked Believe by Cher, and completed that, and then worked through a few more missions. I’m now stuck again. Bah.
Cripes. I got two new games yesterday, and I’ve completed them both already! So I whipped through the rest of the levels on this, which took a few hours. I’ve not done every challenge for every level (you only need to do 6/9 challenges, and 2/3 medals on each to progress), but I’ve beaten the other team, seen the end sequence, and watched the credits. I then tried to play online, but nobody was around, and then I found Jam …
Laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaag. And that’s about all I have to say on the matter.
I haven’t liked any of the other Rainbow Six games, didn’t really like Ghost Recon Island Thunder, am not a fan of any other “soldier” games, and so, quite expectedly, I didn’t really like this. I mean, it looks nice and all, but I just thought “why am I playing this?”, and then stopped doing so.
Urgh. This game is nasty. Really nasty. I never liked Contra (or rather, Probotector as it was bizarrely called over here in the UK) on the NES, and Super Contra (Super Probotector) on the SNES left me colder than cold too, so I wasn’t really expecting much. Which is just as well, as it’s crap. I’m just glad I didn’t buy it, as I normally buy the XBLA games without trying them, and it’s only because of the new feature …
Hurrah for Tony Hawk! I started out this year with a flurry of Hawk activity, completing Tony Hawk games at an alarming rate. Then I ran out. But look! There’s a new one! Sort of! Tony Hawk’s Downhill Jam isn’t a proper, “traditional”, Tony Hawk game. I was a bit worried about it, in fact, as it seemed to be an entire game based around the concept of the single “Downhill Jam” level from some of the other games. My …
K.K. Slider night, and he played K.K. Fusion. I really should count up how many tracks I have now, so I know how far off the the 52 total I am. I’m expecting to be up around 45-ish, I think. Overall, this evening was pretty musical in Cheese, as it was also La-Di-Day. Many of my animals wanted to sing me new town tunes, but most of them were crap. I chose Sally’s as the new one, mainly because I …
It’s Ouendan! Only new! And in English! In fact, it’s actually more like a sequel, as it improves on the original in some areas (you can skip cutscenes for a start), and has a different plot and entirely new scenarios. As you can see from the title of this post, I’ve completed it already, even though it only arrived this morning. However, I have only done it on the easiest setting, and only had to retry one level once (the …
