Just In.

I just bought Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks, good so far.

I've been playing my PSP also, Disgaea.  Good game, a bit tedious though.

Returned to WoW recently, no comment.

Beat the Starcraft II campaign.  Maybe that will be my next post.

Gamefly sent out Valkyria Chronicles 2.  I still haven't beat the first one so I think I'll buy it (since I do love the first one) and then set it aside for later play.

Well, more to come.  Sorry for the lack of updates.  Not that anyone actually reads this.

No review for Metroid: Other M

I thought it was terrible, so instead of pushing myself to do something I don't want (or have to) do, I opted to stick it back in the mail and ship it right back to Gamefly.

The story telling style was clumsy and unimaginative.  The voice acting was boring and near mechanical, and the game controls were awful.

I think I'm going to go play some Metroid on NES.

Time Fcuk

My play through of Metroid: Other M is going... slowly, not because it's a bad game, but rather because I really, really, really don't like it.  So instead of punishing myself by slogging through it I decided to play a little bit of Time Fcuk.  

This free flash game is a brilliant platforming game with some neat dimensional shifting dynamics.  Some of the puzzles can be a bit tedious but all in all a very good play.   The "you" that speaks to you the whole time via a dialog box on the left side of the screen is a nice touch of atmosphere too with all sorts of twisted things to say.

Go ahead, give it a play, it's free, and it will be worth all of the free you spend on it.

Canabalt.

First, I want to say I know that a lot of people out there on the internet have already said how good this game is.  I figure it can't hurt to say it again.  This game (free on pc) for the iPhone & PC/Mac is a great, simple flash game with one goal.  Run.  No silly rings or gems like in Sonic, and isn't a hokey Olympics sprinting game.  Just run.  It amazes me how such a simple game that has me hitting a single button can keep me entertained for so long.  Not a lot to actually say about this game other than try it.  You may like it.

PS:  I wont be getting to Metroid: Other M for a few days.  Things are a little crazy here in the real lifes.  I'll get to it soon though.

Metroid: Other M

Arrived in the mail today.  More soon.

Update:  The Wiimote is out of AA's (no, I haven't bought a rechargeable  for it as I never actually use it) and none are to be scavenged.  Won't be able to play until tomorrow night.

This is merely practice.

Let's get things on the clear here.  I'm no pro.  Just a guy like (or unlike) you, with entirely too much free time on his hands.  So instead of sitting there and being useless I think it's time I start writing, even if in the end it is for no reason other than to practice it.


I have nothing to post about now, but I'll be posting things soon.
