Rogue (FreeBSD)
Posted on January 31, 2006 | No CommentsI hate it when this happens. The exit to the next level is in the third room, but I just know I’ll be compelled to crawl around the whole level looking or goodies and end up being eaten by a grue -
Advance Wars: Dual Strike (DS)
Posted on January 31, 2006 | No CommentsCompleted mission 7 – the first ‘fog of war’ mission. Not a particularly elegant victory, though – it ended up with a boxing match between my last unit and the enemy’s last unit. Entire map in darkness except for the two squares beside each other.... -
Oh No! Gaming Ennui!
Posted on January 29, 2006 | No CommentsOther than a bit of dabbling with The Temple of Elemental Evil on t’PC, I’ve played virtually no games for ages. The ennui has struck again. A friend of ours has loaned us season 2 of 24 (we only saw season one) so that’s kinda... -
The Polis
Posted on January 29, 2006 | No CommentsWell, we both have a gut feeling that we’ll be asked for medicals and police certificates in the next month. This may be wishful thinking on our part. The police certificates can take 40 days to arrive and are valid for one year after arrival.... -
Rushing about…
Posted on January 27, 2006 | No CommentsMrs Me is popping in to our solicitors today to discuss missives on the house sale. All appears to be going very smoothly, so we’re hoping it stays that way. There’s nothing but silence on the visa front, but that’s to be expected. Next week... -
Mr Driller 2 (GBA)
Posted on January 26, 2006 | 1 CommentWell, I can do 500 metres pretty reliably now. Trouble is, it generally takes me all three lives to do it and I never lose a life before level 4. That’s largely, I suspect, because I haven’t got the hang of getting rid of the... -
Mr Driller 2 (GBA)
Posted on January 23, 2006 | No CommentsThis is a weird game. It really is. It needs a combination of speed and fast reactions, puzzle solving and strategic thinking. Now that I’ve had a bit of success with 500 metre mode, I’ve gone in to tackle some of the speed missions. Basically... -
Mr Driller 2 (GBA)
Posted on January 22, 2006 | No Comments500 METRE TRIUMPH! Muuuuhahahahahaha! I don’t care that I’ve finished Resident Evil 4 on hard mode. Couldn’t care less about Halo on the hardest level. I poo-poo in the smelly face of Tempest 2000 – I HAVE COMPLETED EASY MODE OF MR DRILLER 2. Phew!... -
Lists!
Posted on January 22, 2006 | No CommentsWell, the survey has been carried out by our prospective purchasers and the surveyor indicated no problems, so I expect the ’subject to survey’ offer will be replaced by a firm one next week. Our purchaser was also telling us that he has a buyer... -
Mr Driller 2 (GBA)
Posted on January 21, 2006 | No CommentsGuhh. I can get to 450 metres pretty reliably these days, but that last 50 metres seems problematic. I tend to run out of oxygen. The oxygen tanks are all tucked behind similar looking arrangements of blocks so I just need to get my head...
