People in newsgroups wonder why it takes me so long to complete a Zelda game. It’s very simple. I spend hours and hours mucking about with silly things. Last night, for example. I finally completed the Goron Caverns, and on returning to the village discovered that there’s a sniper-scope type attachment available for the bow.

Argh is all that I can say. This is a brilliant game. I am trying desperately to get through one of the missions and Im turning into a game addict cos I really really have to finish the level. Rather than watching a Bruce Willis film heres me sitting with headphones doing practice levels and

The controls have really clicked now – feels very smooth and intuitive. It’s all helped by the locking system being pretty smart, especially in close combat. Ol’ link leaps about like a ninja, making me look much better at the game than I actually am. Just done a little bit of the same dungeon –

Woohoo! This game is just a work of genius from beginning to end. I solved the various little problem-ettes in the Boo house and headed back to toad town. Ok, so that sounds like it took about five minutes, right? Nah – with all the to-ing and fro-ing (not to mention a good fifteen minutes

See, I have this idea, fixed firmly in my spicy brain, that I’ve only just started Twilight Princess, but it’s really not the case. I’m at the first real dungeon, sure, (the forest temple doesn’t count cos (a) the first dungeon in Zelda is always a tutorial and (b) Zelda dungeons are numbered starting from

I’m monumentally rubbish at this but, bizarrely, still manage to finish races. So far, I’m struggling a bit with the silver courses (the Iceberg Run is a nightmare) because it’s too tempting to do huge stupid jumps that result in me falling off the course. I think I also need to put something other than

Weeeeee! Well, I wandered about for a wee while after doing Dry Dry desert and eventually headed back to Toad Town. Instead of wandering off doing some of the side stuff I was planning to do, I was drawn in to the Foresty bit by its extreme prettiness. Unfortunately, the forest is a bit of

There are so many awesome games on the Wii, DS and VC at the moment, that it’s getting kinda difficult to decide what to play sometimes. Anyhoo, Paper Mario won through tonight and I’ve romped through Dry Dry Ruins and officially ended the chapter. So, Star Spirit GET! Some of the dialogue in this area

Woohooooo! That’s a noise I say a lot recently. Excite Truck is just a thing of beauty. And it’s very simple. Basically, you have a truck. And it goes very very fast. And you do stupidly high/far/fast jumps. And stunts. And crashes. And stuff. And you still win the race! So far, I have bronze

This game is so bad I can’t even be bothered downloading the box art for this post. The 18 certificate should have told me all I needed to know, but I wasn’t prepared for the unpleasant, infantile and ugly morass awaiting me. I have better things to do with my life than “play” crap like
