My first Lego game was the original Lego Star Wars. I played it to completion, but never got OCD about it and didn’t even come close to doing everything do-able in the game (getting True Jedi, all the minikits, characters, etc.) but I did enjoy it. Then I got, played, completed and 100%ed Lego Indiana Jones. And Lego Batman. And Lego Indiana Jones 2. I wanted to go back to Lego Star Wars but some of the achievements are utterly …

The game’s title is a bit verbose, isn’t it? I’ll be referring to it as Scribblenauts Batman instead, because that’s what it is. Sure, the rest of the Justice League are in it, but then Lego Batman 2 and 3 have them as well. Batman’s the headline act. In fact, virtually every DC character you could ever imagine, including every variant (Earth Two, Red Son, Bizzaro, New 52, etc.) are also in it. And costumes to dress up other characters …

I thought this for £13 was a bargain from Asda the other day. Until I saw it for £9.98 in Blockbuster this weekend. Oh well. After milking Lego Batman for everything it had, I moved onto Mirror’s Edge. It’s really good too, if somewhat hard and disorientating. It isn’t making me feel sick (like many have found), it’s just I get lost easily and even though there’s a button to look at where you’re supposed to go, that doesn’t help. …
To my regular readers, it may appear I’ve taken a break from gaming for the last week or so. This is not quite the case. In fact, I’ve probably squeezed more gaming hours into the last seven days than any other seven days in the last 15 years or more. Yes, that’s a lot of gaming. All of it (bar a 10 minute Lego Batman demo blip) on Fallout 3. Today, I completed the main story after a total recorded …
Just like last year, this year I took part in the RetroCollect 52 Game Challenge. The idea was to complete, uh, 52 games in a single year. Back in June, I successfully became the first person taking part to hit the 52 game barrier. But I wasn’t going to stop there. With the challenge over before the year was half done, I aimed for 104 games. The 104 Game Challenge, if you will. For the less mathematical of my readers, …
