Gaming blog 30 July 2007

I've decided to use this as my gaming blog, mainly for personal use, as I doubt anyone would bother reading it. Hehe.

Today I decided to play a few old NES games I haven't in a while, and started with one of my old favourites; Monster in My Pocket. It's amazing how easy that game is to breeze through, even after years of not playing it. Within less than an hour the game was completed with little effort. Next I played a little of Home Alone 2, Bart vs. the Space Mutants and Terminator 2,all of which I quicky got bored of. Although I've completed all three in the past, I was clearly rusty, and got killed before long. Next I put in Double Dragon II, another game that I loved as a kid. I had a slightly harder time than I used too, but quickly completed it with a good few lives to spare. Other than a few minutes of Tennis and World Cup, that's where my classic adventure ended for the day.

After a rest, I put in Project Zero II (Fatal Frame II to Americans) for the PS2, a game which my girlfriend got me as a present. As with many games of late, I decided to start again rather than continue from where I was... I've yet to get very far in the game at all. As with most my horror-type games, despite the fact I quite like it, it's taking me a long time to get into it. I tent to find games like that (or Silent Hill) intimidating, but once I get into it, I should speed up.

Finally for today I've been playing Maximo for the PS2, a game which my sister got me a good while back. When I first played it I didn't get past the first level due to my lack of skill with the analogue stick, but now I'm used to using it (through GTA games) I'm doing better. The game looks promising, though it reminds me of Medievil. We shall see...
