Animal Crossing: Let’s Go To The City (Wii)
Mar 16th
Remembered KK Slider on Saturday night. Always nice when that happens. Played too early yesterday morning and Nook’s wasn’t even open, so I meant to play later to sell my inventory full of stuff, but forgot.
Peggle (360)
Mar 13th
Got up early this morning and spent forty-five minutes playing Peggle before work. It’s a good way to start the day, even though I’m not doing very well at all on this version. I have real trouble judging long shots, due to the lack of a cursor and the size of the screen.
Mortal Kombat Vs. DC Universe (360)
Mar 13th
I’m not sure how good it is, and the 360 controller does its best to fight me every step of the way, but I can use Batman to kick Green Lantern’s face in, so I’m happy.
Noby Noby Boy (PS3)
Mar 13th
Spent far longer than I intended to playing this last night. Kept eating and growing and giving myself a tiny butt, then a tiny head. Just messing around, gloriously.
Crystal Defenders Demo (PS3)
Mar 13th
No better technically than the 360 version. Looks exactly the same to my eyes.
Flower (PS3)
Mar 13th
Hmm. Put this on for a quick go last night. And it was quick, because after a few minutes it started showing a black screen and I had to quit out. Strange.
Animal Crossing: Let’s Go To The City (Wii)
Mar 13th
I have a basement, the final house upgrade. It’s lovely to have more space. I’ve moved my Yoshi Egg lab down there and am now using my upper floor as a games room.
Crystal Defenders (iPod)
Mar 12th
Just got to wave 29 on the first level. I think there are only thirty waves, so I was annoyingly close to the end.
Easy Golf Demo (360)
Mar 12th
Another community game, which costs a whopping 800 points. Seems like it might have quite a lot going for it – a basic but reasonably enjoyable golf game with a built in course designer – but after playing three holes I decided to check out the course designer, but didn’t manage to try it before the trial period expired. I’m not likely to spend 800 points on a game I’ve not properly checked out so, um, there we are. Stalemate.
RC-AirSim Demo (360)
Mar 12th
Had a bit of fun playing with this remote controlled aircraft sim, but quit before it timed out on me. I can imagine it being a nice little toy to have on your 360 to wind down with, but I don’t think it’s for me.
