Strawberry Chips
before you've completed the game 
There's a lot of spoilers in the video and I'm very angry at them at the moment, having only got to the end of Act 3. What kind of review spoils major plot points with an intended audience being people that haven't played it yet? Mind you, some of the later trailers do too
Cutest game character evar
It seems that Ninja Theory weren't making the game anyway, so it might have been a let-down.
The normal UK cover is pretty awful, like a below average Deviantart, even though it's a Yoji Shinkawa design.
Installing the game only takes 6 minutes and the install screen is great, it has eye candy and the information text that comes up on the screen quickly turns into parody and is worth reading.
Now I just have to totally avoid the internet until I finish the game.
*cries* I can't take it any more!
When I fought Bouldergeist the first time I thought... "I had to fight that spinning top boss with one life to get another star, for heaven's sake please don't let there be one for Bouldergeist too..." Yep -_-
Edit: There's a magic rule that when I complain about something in a game in my blog, I complete it soon after. This time is no different XD yay for magic blog!
Have a kitty and a rabbit :3
second edit: OH MY GOD, Lava Spire Daredevil Run makes Boldergeist pale in comparison, a whole level on one life and you start again if you fail? Well, I completed it just now thanks to magic blog, but it's got to be right up there in the hardest!
in Europe at least. Complete with European rip-off price. Let's see what we get for our $160 (£80):
Metal Gear Solid 4 game (natch) worth £35 ($70)
MGS 4 soundtrack CD
6" Snake figure
Making-of Blu-ray disc
*record scratch noise*
is that it?
I believe the US version is the same but half the price and has a nice artbook instead of the figure. At this, most comments were "OMG no way am I paying an extra 20 dollars for that" how about paying an extra $90 for less?
It's not camoflage if you put 20 non camo pockets over the top
Would you pay $90 over the standard edition for a figure, a cd and a documentary?
Yeah, I've got a Wii now. Wee!
So, I've got Mario Kart Wii and I wanted to share my opinion of it.
It's super hard! If you're worried about them making it even easier than Mario Kart DS (which was quite easy) they've gone the opposite and made it so that you can be in first on the final stretch, then get blue shelled, red shelled three times, then get run over by a big character, run over by a bullet bill, run over by someone with a star, green shelled then knocked about by everyone else then finish 12th. It's relentlessly hard on 150cc, I haven't finished it yet because it makes me silently scream and want to throw the controller into the console.
The online is a lot of fun if you're playing with friends.. because it just is a buzz seeing their name and their kart choice racing around with you. If you're playing with strangers it's just like the offline, it's totally random if you actually win or lose and you can be 12th and get lucky in the last 10 seconds and get 2nd or be 2nd during the last corner then get smashed into 10th.
At te same time, the tracks are great when you actually RACE and I want to unlock all the racers so it's very addictive. So I don't know if I love or hate the game. I'd love to know what everyone thinks about it when it comes out in the USA...
