Well, it's time for another Gaming Update, I think. As per normal, it's been a couple of weeks since I've made noise here, but I AM still alive... :)
Most recently, I've managed to get my hot, sweaty lil' hands on a copy of Dead Rising. After playing the Demo a bit, a recommendation from Mr. Znuggles, and having a read of the review here at Gamespot, I decided it would be worth my while to run around and smash some evil Zombies for a bit.
And what fun I've been having already! In a short space of time, I managed to take a BUNCH of pictures of Zombies and (brief) Survivors, and smashed a bunch of evil undead with Flower Pots, CD Cases, a severed arm, a soccer ball (gotta love those ricochets... :)), and even managed to dress some of them up with some novelty masks...
I've managed to unlock a few achievements, save a couple of hapless individuals, and even explore the mall a bit. One complaint though - why do the subtitles have to be so SMALL? And how come you can't make them bigger, for those of us without big screen, HD TVs? That's a minor gripe though, as the gameplay has been pretty good so far.
On the downside though, my Wireless Gaming Adapter seems to be on the blink for some reason. I've unplugged it and fiddled around with it a bit, but I'm not sure what's wrong. My 360 doesn't seem to recognise that its plugged in, even though power is definitely getting through to it. Weird. I'm sure I'll figure it out, but it's frustrating not to be able to access X-Box Live.
Gotta get back into some online Gaming as well. Have been a bit slack in that area recently (having only spent one night in my bed in the last week and a half), so I gotta work on that some in the coming weeks. We'll see how I go, eh?
NEhow, gotta go home briefly and sort out some clothes and other things for the next couple of days. Things to do, people to see. :)
Hope you're all doing well out there in Gamespot Land, and that you're playing plenty of Games, my friends. In the meantime, don't forget to...
GAME ON! :D
