Blair and Brown duke it out
Posted on April 28, 2005 | No CommentsGogs and Tony duke it out at long last. Big Gogs’s evil plan is revealed in all its Machiavellian glory. Or something. -
Ectoplasm
Posted on April 26, 2005 | No CommentsI once had opportunity to visit a strange old lady who swore blind she could nasally extrude ectoplasm. She’d sit there, in the dark, rocking gently, and then whoop loudly, causing me to leap in the air. Invisible to all eyes except hers, a languid... -
Lego Star Wars (Xbox)
Posted on April 26, 2005 | No CommentsOk, so I wasn’t going to play anything from the Episode III bits until I’d seen the movie, because I didn’t want any spoilers. Then, I had an epiphany. Hang on, thought I – it’s a George Lucas movie. What am I going to spoil?... -
Banjo Kazooie (N64)
Posted on April 23, 2005 | No CommentsIt’s an interesting thing. Banjo Kazooie is better than Doom 3. In fact, it’s better the most current generation games. I’ve spent far too long on it today, but it’s just such a great game with a brilliant mechanic that it can’t be helped. Also,... -
Onions for sale!
Posted on April 22, 2005 | No CommentsAs I was walking to the wash-house one day, I happened upon a little man pushing a very large cart. I approached him and noticed his particularly leathery visage, which seemed to fit very well with his miniature stature.. “Good Morning,” I said. “Good Morning... -
Knights of the Temple (Xbox)
Posted on April 19, 2005 | No CommentsCompleted this ages ago but I still tend to pop back every once in a while for a wee go. On the toughest difficulty it’s not bad. Basically, it’s a third person medieval slash em up. It’s also amusing as well – I know quite... -
Doom 3 (Xbox) (And Doom II) (And Ultimate Doom as well) (And Pikmin)
Posted on April 12, 2005 | No CommentsWell, more creepy corridor crawling last night. I’m making some progress but also finding it a little easy. Still, it’s loads of fun. I had a brief sesh with Classic Doom as well and it was a bit of a jaw dropping moment. Probably because,... -
Pikmin (GameCube)
Posted on April 10, 2005 | No CommentsBah! The very mention of it in my last posting has urged me to have a wee play. This is such a glorious game and – as my evening gaming is currently filled with Doom 3 and Republic Commando, Pikmin makes for some shiny kid-friendly... -
Musings
Posted on April 10, 2005 | No CommentsDespite what the occasionally USENET pundit might say, the current generation of consoles has had some truly great games. Off the top of my head, games I want to either complete or just play through again in the near future are: Doom 3 (Xbox) Republic... -
Doom 3 (Xbox)
Posted on April 9, 2005 | No CommentsOk, girly moment. Dark dark room. I can hear snufflings and stuff. Not good. I wish I could hold a gun and a torch at the same time. Oh well, nowt for it. Should I chance a quick switch to the flashlight? I can definitely...
