SiN Episodes: Emergence
May 12th
Well, I defragged overnight and installed new video drivers this morning and it’s fine now. Only had time to shoot about eight nasty men with guns and then get twatted round the head by a girder, but it seemed okay.

Another ranked match win – that’s two now! – and I’m up to about 1500 in the rankings.
Think I should go to bed now.
Excellent game online, this… when it works. I played against a friend earlier and after a couple of hands I suddenly noticed he’d turned into an AI player… odd.

My Calculations x 100 score was so bad I didn’t even bother testing my brain age.

Nope, I can’t find any games.
I played a match and won.
I then jumped in and played another match.
I then filed a complaint against one of the players I played against.
I then tried to play another match, but it won’t find any.
I’ve switch the Xbox on and off and everything.
I know there are games, because my ranking’s dropping all the time, so it’s not like the whole thing’s gone down.
Ack! Why isn’t anything working today?

Weird.
I’ve just played a couple of ranked games (one win, one loss) and suddenly I can’t find any games. I’m sitting here in a lobby empty except for me and nobody’s joining.
What’s happened?
Moto GP Demo
May 11th
I am bloody awful at it.
Can’t stay on the road for more than ten second… at best.
I took it online to see if other people were having problems.
They weren’t.
The game session ended before I could even finish the race.

It stutters.
It loops.
It’s completely unplayable.
Odd, because Half-Life 2 is fine. This just seems to die down to one frame per second whenever it has to play a new sound effect at the same time as moving things on the screen, or something.
Loco Roco Demo
May 11th
A free UMD with MCV this week containing a Loco Roco demo.
It’s not the same demo, though.
It’s even not the same level as the other demo but in English.
It’s a completely different level. Best!
Well, actually, I’m not sure if it’s quite as good as the downloadable demo – fewer secrets, no singing – but it’s still a free level of Loco Roco excellence so I really won’t be complaining.
Lost Planet Demo
May 10th
This is really, really good.
Tried the second level this evening, against humans rather than bugs. Lots of enemies, fairly open areas, big guns.

Forty today.
BAD.
I had a new game today. I had to memorise lots of words from a list. I remembered eight, which was better than I thought. I’ve always sucked at memory type games.
