3DS Game Need List
It’s been a while since I posted up a list of games I need. Sorry, NEED. Some would say there aren’t many 3DS games out recently or in the next 12 months, which, if true, makes me wonder which bit of me made all these up: Theatrhythm Final Fantasy Marvel Pinball Heroes of Ruin Professor Layton & the Mask of Miracle New Super Mario Bros 2 Luigi’s Mansion 2 Harvest Moon Fire Emblem Rayman Origins Epic Mickey Paper Mario Layton …
Ghost Recon: Shadow Wars (3DS)
I’ve not mentioned this game yet in my diary, but in fact it is my most played 3DS game so far. Which, if anyone can remember how I took to Ghost Recon on the Xbox might surprise you. Thing is, it’s nothing like that. Or any other Ghost Recon game.

The art of ignoring video games

Serious Sam: Next Encounter (GC)
I have about ten million known good games as-yet unstarted sitting on my shelf. Things like Metroid Prime: Echoes and Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance. I even got Fahrenheit cheaply this morning. So what did I decided to pick up and play today? Well, this obviously. Graphically, it’s nothing special. Originality is out the window. The puzzles are few and simple, and there’s nothing much to recommend it. However, there’s lots to shoot and the dialogue is genuinely funny. Best …
Mario vs Donkey Kong (GBA)
I went back to this game this evening, although I’m not really sure why. I should be working my way through Fire Emblem or Warrior Within or something. Anyway. Decided to try and see how far through the Game+ mode I could get. Surprisingly, despite the first level on the first world appearing impossible last time I tried, I’ve managed to get to level 3-2 without much difficulty. Had a quick try on Expert 1 again too, but failed. Rubbish.
RPGs – Role Playing Games or Rocket Propelled Grenades?
