Since my last entry I played through and beat Zelda: Majora's Mask from way back on the N64. I have always heard mixed reviews on this one but I found it to be pretty good. I can fully understand the biggest turn off of the game which is the having to play through the same 3 days over and over but if you can tolerate that and understand that your time to complete things isn't nearly as short as seems I think you end up playing a good Zelda game that although shares graphical assets from Ocarina of Time has an oddball story that doesn't require you to rescue Princess Zelda to beat the game.

I then went on to start playing the first Oddworld game. A game that came out on the PSX and like many games of that era look kind of ugly now with the really grainy graphics. I as in most cases can look past that because I understand that was just how it was at time. I had played some of this game before and liked it and i still do. It is however a shear test of patience as you will most likely die in this game over and over and over again. If you have never played the game it is basically a puzzle game where you play a character named Abe who learns a horrible secret about the factory he works in. Abe must then try to escape hopefully while rescuing other people of his race. called Mudokins, along the way. The game basically puts you situations where you must walk, run, jump as well as other actions at just the right time in order to get by the puzzle-like levels. If you have ever played the older games Out of this World or Flashback the game feels and controls similar to them. I seem to remember that the graphic style used on the characters was called something like rotoscoping which makes the characters have smooth animation at the cost of some control precision though. ultimately while I like the game at the higher levels I was dying so much I felt I needed a break which may even be a permanent one so i decided to start playing something else.

About 18 hours in to the rpg Grandia which I think came out on multiple platforms though I am playing it on the PSX. The game is fairly old school in design and has the same above mentioned muddy graphics but so far I am actually enjoying it quite a bit. Not much else to say about this one right now since I am still working on it.
