Squareball (iPhone)
Oct 1st
Level six completed!
Yes!
Now on to level seven, which is proving to be a bit of git.
Just like all the other levels, then.
Look, just buy this game, okay? It’s really, really great, as long as you don’t mind a challenge and repeating levels over and over until you crack them. Which, let’s face it, is probably most gamers these days. Bah.
I love you, Squareball, even if nobody else does.
Red Faction: Guerilla (360)
Oct 1st
Had an hour or so with this last night and thoroughly enjoyed myself, though it’s difficult to know what to write about. I’ve not been doing any story missions, just side missions, so there’s no plot to talk about. (Not that the story looks like it’ll be all that interesting, but you never know.) I’ve been firing rockets, throwing around charges and shooting people, all that good stuff. Buildings have collapsed impressively, enemies have flown through the air amusingly and I’ve managed to shoot down some enemy planes.
I did do one new mission type last night, which had me riding on the back of an amazing vehicle shooting rockets at, well, everything in site. Some amusing dialogue from the driver. Lots of explosions.
It’s not really a game that requires many words.
