I'm on to Spirit Tracks and Infamous (God, I've got to finish this one.)  Infamous is longer than I thought it would be and the floaty controls have turned me off.  I guess the refined platforming mechanincs like in Assassin's Creed have me spoiled.   I'm still gonna finish this, but it's taking a lot longer than expected.

Spirit Tracks is difficult and cumbersome at times.  I love the dungeons so far, but the train and flute mechanics flat out suck.  I guess my old DS Lite mic isn't helping matters and I wish we had another option rather than blowing into the piece of crap.  I admire Nintendo for trying something different with the DS titles, but it's lost it's joy, especially after the first fucking tune became so damn difficult.  And holy crap, the train mechanics take some getting used to, having to almost stop on a dime to depart off the train.  I don't want to be spoon fed, but the frustration of just moving from one area to another feels unnecasary.  I'm moving on to the second dungeun at the moment, armed with a cannon.

Travo is officially broke this month with unexpected medical bills so backlog time, Here I come!  After I perfect LA Noire, I'm gonna finish off Portal, Half Life Episodes 1 and 2 and ...um...Brutal Legend.  Plus I have the God of War series on PS3 to get through.  A money drought is just what I needed.

I would never claim there to be nothing for me to play on any console besides the Wii. The other consoles and the PC have almost TOO MUCH to play, but the Wii? No..... not for the kinds of games I want anyway.

The thing is, I really don't want to buy another Wii. Its still over $150 plus tax, which I'm sorry, is a ripoff. However, if Nintendo had said Last Story and Xenoblade would be released with Zelda, say, September...October, and another November, I would have bought another one. I still have Metroid and Donkey Kong to play too, after all. But now, I will just wait for the Wii 2 and see what happens with that.

When I overshoot, it usually means taking out someone's eye.

Dude that stings..... not that I'd know.

....What the fuck is going on here?

So I started playing Borderlands on PC. This game is fucking awesome! A loot collecting open world FPS with RPG elements. It reminds me of Red Steel 2, if Red Steel 2 was fun. Mostly because of the graphics and the isolated feel.

This is why America doesn't get many Wii games.

Downloading Chrono Trigger right now. It costs 100 points (900 points instead of 800) more expensive here in Europe, but a small price to pay.

I remember back in 1995 being hyped for this game, but it was never released over here. And back then the converters never worked with these newer games because Nintendo was actively trying to stop people from playing imported titles.

Now 16 years later, I can finally play it.

Going to try it out now, later
