    Castlevania – Circle of the Moon (GBA)

    Where was I? Oh yeah, I was stuck in the fiendishly annoying Machine Tower. Or I was until I remembered I could whirl the whip around by holding the attack button. I also discovered an incredibly handy save point right at the top, too –...

    Magical Starsign (DS) – Signed Off

    Oh yes indeedy – it is c0mpl3t0rat0red! I can’t really say much about the ending without giving spoilers, but I will say that this is one of the best and more entertaining RPGs I’ve played. Sure, it’s a little (lot) on the easy side, but...

    There’s no doubt at all in my mind that deKay is going to love this game. I have just, while crossing a bridge, been accosted by a dancing fruit which ran up to me, yelled “A-splode!” and ran off while a huge explosion rocked the...

    Earth Gummy GET! After a pretty long battle and a very poignant scene (in FMV no less) with the Stone Giant – accompanied by a rather awesome bit of synthy guitar soloing) the gummy is mine. I’ve now been summoned back to Puffoon, conveniently enough,...

    Well, Wood Gummy GET! and Space Police boss GOT! So, without further ado it was off to Erd where, against all the odds, the plot has taken a rather surprising turn in a sinister direction. It appears that everything isn’t as random as it seemed...

    Magical Starsign (DS)

    Right. So, I stormed an incredibly difficult to navigate pyramid (in which I kept getting lost cos I’m a bit thick, me) and kicked the bottom of the boss, so I now have two of the required millenium gummies. I promptly headed off to Gren...

    Magical Starsign (DS)

    Well that was kinda half-expected. Technically, Magical Starsign has just jumped the shark. At about 12 hours in I thought “hang on – there can’t be much to go now because the story is almost done. But I’ve only just got a full team.” All...
