I finished up with Condemned tonight, after playing through it a second time and getting all the achievements.. for some reason, they never added 1,000 GP to Condemned. They left it at 970, so I can't help feeling incomplete.. even though I have all the achievements, I don't have my 1,000

Next I plan on either playing Kane And Lynch, Rainbow Six 1 or The Darkness (which I forgot I even had).. and playing a bit of GTA4 every now and then, gradually working my way towards the end, bit by bit.

Playing Madden 09, which if you have 08 keep it. 09 has  like this weird little  lag thing inbetween plays. It really bugs the hell out of me.

Playing Madden 09...

Ditto. PS2 still going strong.

I've just started the first case on Apollo Justice. The initial premise comes as a big disappointment following on from the Phoenix Wright games, but I'm keeping my mind open as I have faith in the writers to turn it around into something great all along. Hopefully.

Elite Beat Agents on the Nintendo DS

Its kinda like Guitar Hero (i think, never actually played that) where you gotta hit the screen at the right time along with the beat. Its really addictive, I was playing it all day yesterday and for a few hours this morning, and this morning I was just trying to complete one song.

Its awesome, best game i've played on DS so far (although I aint really played much yet...gunna start playing that Phoenix Wright game later)

TEW 2008

My life as King Wii

Both are enjoyable. Though I had to resign from WWE. My guys just can't stay out of trouble and Vince drives me nuts. I went to TNA where I had a little money issues, but atleast I'm not worried about them going to jail.

I've had my first few goes on No More Heroes, beating the first two main bosses and doing a few side missions inbetween.

At this stage it feels overhyped. I wanted to like it, but so far I just can't. There are some nice touches, but the combat tends to feel haphazard and the garnish around it just isn't fun. Also the main character, as cool as he looks, is deeply unlikeable whenever he opens his mouth, which doesn't motivate me to continue aiding him through his journey.

I'll continue playing it for a while, but once Yakuza 2 arrives in the mail then No More Heroes will be no more active.

WWE Day of Reckoning 2. It's not bad, I can see myself liking it a lot once I get used to certain controls - mainly counters, plus not rolling my opponent over when I want to stand him up. There don't seem to be as many moves at your immediate disposal as the later PS2 games, and the CAW mode isn't quite as advanced, but it's a fun game nonetheless.

I started to reply Bioshock a few days ago, but quickly realised how tedious it becomes. And add to that the fact that I was planning on collecting all of the weapon upgrades and audio diaries this time around, well.. I changed my mind.

I bought Battlefield: Bad Company today.. so I'm gonna hit that up later on tonight.

I've quickly come to the conclusion that the GameCube controller is horrible. I always thought it looked fine, but upon actually using it, I've discovered it feels like a cheap, brittle piece of plastic. The shoulder buttons are the worst, not only in their shape but the springs behind them. These were problems I had with the dodgy knock-offs, but the official pad's no better (apart from not falling apart in the packaging). Just awful to use.

Edit: Popped my Final Fantasy cherry with the FF3 remake on DS. Nice cutscene graphics.

The gameplay starts with a battle. Then take four steps, and another random battle. Fuck that.

[Ethan]

Just now, I mean its a good game to pop to, but yeah. YOu're late to the  game my friend.

[The Headliner]

<_<

>_>

You talkin' to me?

[Ethan]

Very Much sir. Final Fantasy, isn't just a game series, its a storytelling extravaganza.

[The Headliner]

It might be, but if it's interspersed with random battles at that kind of frequency, I'd rather watch the movie. I mean four steps into the game, after an introductory battle, featuring opponents no different to the last. At that rate, the experience was going to become too much of a slog.

[Ethan]

That's vintage RPG, they do it differently now. Random battles are used to build stats. It's worth it. Especially in the titles that make you split of the parties. You learn  about your characts. It's fun.
