Animal Crossing: Wild World (DS)
Jul 24th
Last night I had my first ever lost connection during local wireless play. Odd, as my DS was only a foot ot so away from the other DS. Anyway, I got back in and everything was okay after that. Visited Vatican for the first time in ages and ages – hardly any of my old friends still live there. Agent S and Kid Kat seem like good additions, though.
In other news, my own town, Venture, is now pretty much weed-free after my months of neglect.
Mr Driller: Drill Spirits (DS)

No nearer to the 1,500m mark. In fact, my skills were very weak and I don’t think I made 650m this session.
Rush’n Attack (360)
Jul 9th
Got further than ever before. I survived the first wave of end-of-level enemies on level two, only for the second wave to come in from the right, where I was standing, killing me instantly. Argh. New high score of 74,200, too.
Lumines Live (360)
Jul 9th
Played a few of the different Challenge packs today and unlocked quite a few new skins. Which would be really nice if I ever used Skin Edit mode.
Carcassonne (360)
Jul 9th
Tried playing without using The River expansion today and still lost about as many games as I won. I guess Medium is just about the right level for me, then.

Hooray! Well, it ate my day, but I’ve finished the 1000m stage. The 1500m stage hasn’t fallen yet, my best being 1075m.
Yes, but this is definitely worth a place in my all time top ten.
Assault Heroes (360)
Jul 8th
Haven’t played this for a while, so I thought I’d give it a go. I was going to try and get some more Achievements – I’ve only got ten points right now – but it’s so plodding that I really couldn’t be bothered.
Lumines Live (360)

My second best ever score, but no new skins unlocked or anything. Hey ho.
Rush’n Attack (360)
Jul 8th
Well, I got to the end of the second level again. Twice. But I die so quickly that I’ve not yet been able to work out what to do. I’ll keep trying, though. After all, this is now officially my tenth favourite game of all time.
