Flatout Ultimate Carnage (360)
Jul 28th
I finished the first set of events and moved up to Race Class.
There’s a reason that this hasn’t moved from my 360 in weeks, and it’s not just my lack of gaming time recently. It’s a simply fantastic game.
Super Contra Demo (360)
Jul 28th
I was burnt by Contra, Super Contra seems to be the same, but even harder. No thank you.
Wing Commander Arena Demo (360)
Jul 28th
It’s another car combat game in a different skin. A spaceship skin. And it’s absolutely rubbish. I can’t be bothered to even write about it, quite frankly.
Heavenly Sword Demo (PS3)
Jul 26th
My wife looked up from her knitting and said, “Well, it looks very pretty.” And it does.
Not sure about the, you know, game, though. It’s a hack and slash that seems like it might have a nice, deep system behind it, but I can’t really tell – it’s hard to tell exactly what’s going on under the fireworks or which enemy the game’s going to focus on when you hit an attack button – and enemies spawn for far too long in each area.
Of course, it might easier to tell if it was any good or not if the ONE GIGABYTE demo lasted more than FIVE MINUTES.
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)
Jul 24th
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.
