I had a rough start to the week gaming wise. I picked up and tried to resume the almost finished San Andreas and Eat Lead (PS3). I started Ruff Trigger but got boared with it.  Made good progress with DQ4 yesterday, and am having fun with Oblivion since around Friday.  Those will be my games for the rest of teh year I am guessing. Oh, also played an hour of Fable 2, but had trouble getting it to let me back in without it automatically picking up my wife's savefile.

In just fun gaming, I've played Destruction Derby on the PS2, Sammy Sosa Softball Slam, MLB The Show 09, and NBA2K7 on the 360.

I tried playing Burnout 2 on the 360 which was listed as being compatible on wiki page, but it is not.  Also MS seems to have taken down their backward compatibility list (maybe it just got lost when they re-did the website).  Will have to do some investigating to make sure some titles have not been made uncompatible.

So, bottom line, Oblivion and DQ4.

I want to try DKC Returns later tonight, but for now, all I'm playing is God of War Ghost of Sparta.

And I'm going to make a better effort to play through my Wii games. I have yet to play through SMG and SMG2, I still need to finish GoldenEye, and I want to try and get through the Metroid Prime games. I also need to continue my Arc Rise Fantasia game and dedicate some more time to Rune Factory.

I've noticed that I have these really good Wii games and I haven't really spent too much time with them. I need to change that.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now Playing: Golden Sun Dark Dawn, God of War Ghost of Sparta, and DKC Returns

I've been playing Halo: Reach, I haven't missed a day of playing it since it's release day.

I also just recently finished Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time. What a great game that's very fun to play and quite funny as well.

Last week, frustration got the better of me, and I put REmake in the "to-sell" category of my games. Well, I decided to give it another go, on easy mode this time. I'm actually enjoying it now. I just electrocuted a large "monster" Happy

I also bought a few more GCN games yesterday, and have been playing a bit of each to make sure they all work.

  • Red Faction 2 - Never played a Red Faction game before, but it looked like it could be a good FPS. Only played a couple minutes of it; seems cool so far.
  • Beyond Good & Evil - Rented it years ago, couldn't get into it at the time. Figured I'd give it another go. Played about an hour of it today, and I got into it immediately. Don't know what was wrong with me last time.
  • Eternal Darkness -  Borrowed this from a friend years ago, never finished it, and can't remember why. It's fairly uncommon to find a complete copy locally, so I grabbed it.
  • Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes - I rented this one years ago too, after playing Splinter Cell on Xbox. It plays completely different, and I just could not get into it at the time. Since it was a rental, I didn't have a manual or the original box at the time, which I have found out last night, are pretty much required to play this game. There's no real in-game tutorial, so the manual explains the controls, which I never would have figured out on my own. Also, there's a puzzle-ish part early on that I couldn't figure out involving a "package" with a code I needed. I must have spent 30 minutes running all over the place looking for this damned "package" before I gave up and checked Gamefaqs. *facepalm* Konami are bastards! LOL I'm having fun with the game now. Played about two hours of it so far.

Normally I would not buy so many games at once, but good GCN games are becoming more and more scarce locally, and Ebay prices for most of these games are insane.

Last week, frustration got the better of me, and I put REmake in the "to-sell" category of my games. Well, I decided to give it another go, on easy mode this time. I'm actually enjoying it now. I just electrocuted a large "monster" Happy

I also bought a few more GCN games yesterday, and have been playing a bit of each to make sure they all work.

  • Red Faction 2 - Never played a Red Faction game before, but it looked like it could be a good FPS. Only played a couple minutes of it; seems cool so far.
  • Beyond Good & Evil - Rented it years ago, couldn't get into it at the time. Figured I'd give it another go. Played about an hour of it today, and I got into it immediately. Don't know what was wrong with me last time.
  • Eternal Darkness -  Borrowed this from a friend years ago, never finished it, and can't remember why. It's fairly uncommon to find a complete copy locally, so I grabbed it.
  • Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes - I rented this one years ago too, after playing Splinter Cell on Xbox. It plays completely different, and I just could not get into it at the time. Since it was a rental, I didn't have a manual or the original box at the time, which I have found out last night, are pretty much required to play this game. There's no real in-game tutorial, so the manual explains the controls, which I never would have figured out on my own. Also, there's a puzzle-ish part early on that I couldn't figure out involving a "package" with a code I needed. I must have spent 30 minutes running all over the place looking for this damned "package" before I gave up and checked Gamefaqs. *facepalm* Konami are bastards! LOL I'm having fun with the game now. Played about two hours of it so far.

Normally I would not buy so many games at once, but good GCN games are becoming more and more scarce locally, and Ebay prices for most of these games are insane.

I enjoyed Red Faction over the sequel. BGE I've tried to play thrice. I always get up to this point where I just don't know what to do next (and don't care enough to FAQ it).  It's one of "those" games where I know I am supposed to like it, I can see why people like it, but just never clicks into place for me.  Psychonauts also falls into this category.
