GNR Relay dish GET! So many Super Mutants and Super Mutant Brutes to kill both in the museum and on the run to the Washington Monument! And then I found a barracks, full of brutes, so I ran away. I’m on Level 8 now too. Still loving it!
Today I managed to make it to the Galaxy News radio tower, where I had to see off a giant super mutant outside it, before being given a quest by Three Dog to go to a museum. Took aaaaages to get there, mainly because I kept getting lost in the metro system. And, when I did get to the museum, I found a million super mutants waiting outside. They took some taking down! I’ve played for about 14 hours now, …
Oh, it’s just like Oblivion all over again! It’s impossible to stop playing! Nooooo! Today, where I only played for four hours, I managed to find Lucy West’s Brother, went exploring a lot, and started making my way over to the Galaxy News radio tower. Found the Metro entrance you need to take to get there. There was a raider waiting outside, so I shot at him with my hunting rifle. My first shot missed, but hit the car he …
I’ve been waiting for this for what seems like forever. Forever since Oblivion, anyway. It’s like every other game between Oblivion and Fallout 3 has existed solely to pass the time. Anyway, I’ve spend five hours game-time (but actually, longer – read on) already today. That’s a lot for me. Addicted? Of course not. Honest. I’m really, really enjoying it. The opening sequence in the vault was brilliant. I redid a bit of the escape as I didn’t manage to …
A few more levels today, after getting a load of pinarctic pinata into my garden and master romancing Bunnycombs, Pengums and Flapyaks. No sign of any Jelis yet though, and getting Walrusks in is going to be a pain as I just don’t have space for all the snow and water they need.
Several new pinatas in my garden today – Fizzlybears, Mallowolves and Polollybears all made resident and sent to parties, knocking my level up to about 132. I also master romanced Hoghurts and Peckanmixes, as well as Goobaas, which helped raise my level. Got two achievements today too – one for getting a Polollybear, and the other for completing all of the Region 2 party challenges.
It’s not a Banjo-Kazooie game. It’s not a proper platformer, you have none of the abilities that made Banjo-Kazooie different to other platformers of it’s day, and it plays like a confused mess. Sorry, Rare, but once again you seem to have forgotten how to make games. Either you do a Banjo platformer, or you do Nuts & Bolts sans Banjo and Kazooie. What you’ve got here is a mishmash of illfitting game elements, in Banjo paint. You’ve alienated those …
I thought Tomb Raider Legend looked impressive, but this is head and shoulders above it. More than that even. It looks amazing. And it plays really well too. It’s fluid, varied, well animated, and gorgeous – and that’s just completing the demo. I’d be very likely to buy it, but I can wait. The last two Tomb Raider games I’ve bought were at bargain prices only a few months after release, so I fully expect this to do the same.
Went up loads more levels today – up to 124 now – mainly through getting Moojoos in and romanced, as well as Juicygooses, but also managed three entire levels just because I got a Tigermisu resident and sent it to a party. I haven’t even begun to attempt romancing it yet!
I’ve played this a lot today. Which is evidenced by the fact I’ve completed the final four levels (and hence the game), getting a gold on each, and each taking (on average) an hour. Yes, so I played it a lot. It started to get really tricky near the end, especially as it threw loads of tanks and turrets and inky walls and bottomless drops and all sorts at you. The final level, on a space ship, also had a …
I downloaded the Proto Man and Endless Mode content for this during the week, but didn’t really get a chance to try it out until today. Endless Mode is great. You get random sections of the game, tweaked a bit, one after another with no break, one life, and no shop. The idea is to get as far as you can without dying, with your record recorded in number of rooms. I managed 24. The current online leaderboard says the …
Apart from a quick go on Mega Man 9 yesterday, this is pretty much all I’ve played this week. And I’ve played it a lot. It really appeals to my OCD side, as I systematically work my way through all the pinatas, getting them in the garden then master romancing them. This week, I’ve managed Ponockys, Horstachios, Chewnicorns, Moozipans, Swananas, Rashberrys, Zumbugs, Galagoogoos, Profitamoles and Pigxies. I’ve also managed to make resident, or evolve to (but not yet romance), Moojoos, …
Didn’t play for all that long today, but did manage to master romance Geckies, and as a result, finally get some Badgsicles in my garden. That meant I could complete two of Langston’s challenges, opening up several more that I could access and complete.
More master romancing “fun” today – Bark Barks and Quackberrys, mainly. I also managed (finally) to get my Choclodocus to grow into adulthood. It seems I must have missed off a bone from the list of things I needed him to eat. I didn’t get anything for doing it, though. I did, however, enter him into the “P Factor” contest, which he won, netting me an achievement.
Well, it seems to have got much easier now. I had a fight against the Cardinal (or rather, a demon-fused version of the Cardinal) which was alarmingly easy. He cast Doom on three of my characters, but since I killed him in just two hits (my White Mage’s “Holy” spell did over 300 damage!) that wasn’t a problem. He was a sort of end-of-chapter boss, as I’m now onto Chapter 3, and am about 20 hours into the game. Of …
