Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter
Mar 15th
Single player completed!
Overall, that was a most excellent game. Really, really excellent. A few difficulty spikes and the odd mission objective bug, but nothing too bad. Just one of those games that feels right.
Overall it took me 13 hours and 18 minutes, which seems to be a fair amount of time longer than most people.

Encountered my first proper bug today. After dying my objective didn’t appear when I respawned, so I had to restart the mission I was on. Ah well, I was only one checkpoint in. And it was an excellent mission, so no real harm done.

I played some more of the single player game and I love it. It’s just so tense and just feels so right. Everything just seems to come together. So good. Finished off ‘Radey For Bear’, which was a tough one and then did the next mission which was probably the easiest yet, but no less fun.
Then I played a Team Elimination game with randoms and got killed. A lot. Oh well, it was my first game. And I did get one kill, which saved my pride, three seconds from the end of the match.
The only annoying thing is that I can’t seem to change my location anywhere and the game thinks I’m in the USA.

Single player is really hard. I spent about an hour getting a few checkpoints through one mission. It’s really not bad hard, though. It’s good, challenging hard. It’s great.
As is playing co-op over the Internet. I’ve done a few random elimination rounds with Ade now and this evening we tried the first mission of the co-op campaign. We didn’t manage it. Well, we did in the end, but only after I’d given us infinite lives. We really need to do it properly some time, though.
Generation of Chaos
Mar 12th
Big complicated PSP strategy game with no tutorial and an awful font.
I’ve been through two turns. Thr first turn I bought a sword, but didn’t do anything else. The second turn I managed to move some units and send another off on a search, or something, which is different.
I really don’t have a clue what’s going on.
There are cut scenes, soon, where lots of people talk to each other about nothing. Using a horrible font.
I need to read the manual. Then maybe some reviews.

Hooray!
After picking 250,00 bells worth of fruit and catching 15,000 bells worth of fish I’ve now paid off my current mortgage. House upgrade here we come!

Traded in some games for it.
It is, as many people have been saying, technically the best looking game on any system ever.
It also plays well. Six hour session after first turning on well.
It’s bloody hard, though. I’ve just finished a mission called “Mayday! Mayday!” and it took me hours.
Haven’t even tried the multiplayer yet.
