Shadow of the Colossus, Half Life 2
I played both this afternoon. Half Life 2 is FREAKING INCREDIBLE. I've only played for a few hours and already it's somewhere in my top ten games of all time. It's immersive, beautiful, and constantly throwing new materal at the player. I'm on the run from the, uh...bad guys? Don't remember what they're called and frankly, it doesn't matter. This game is amazing.
I also beat the first two Colossi of Shadow of the Colossus. It's a solid game, but I don't understand the ridiculous hype it gets for being such a quasi-"literary" experience (i.e. "SotC is better than any book I've ever read!" ; you must be reading the wrong books). Still, the bosses are fun. The first one was kind meh, I thought, but shooting the feet out from under the second was cool. Also, they're creative enought that I feel clever when I've killed one -- kinda the same feeling you get when you play through a game like Zack and Wiki without ever having to consult GameFaqs
. Anyway, I'm enjoying both and will continue to play them.

What? New purchases?
As surprised as you may be, it's true!

I snagged copies of Shadow of the Colossus and Gladius today. The former looks interesting, but I'm getting a little worried...not sure if it can live up to all the hype it's had, at least for me. And I've not even heard of the latter except I know it got relatively good reviews...and hey, they were practically giving it away.
Anyway, I've been downloading lots of movies lately and trying to get by with a hectic school workload. I've got a four day weekend coming up...thank god.

Orange Box impressions
I powered up The Orange Box this afternoon and thought I'd post some impressions.
First I played a few matches of Team Fortress 2. I suck, but it's fun. I like playing as the soldier. I tried the Scout also but he was TOO fast. Regardless, it's a fun shooter. I'm enjoying it.
Next up was Portal. Holy crap. This game deserves all the praise it gets. It's hilarious and it's a genuinely interesting, creative game concept. I've played the first twelve or thirteen levels and it's awesome.
Finally, I played Half Life 2 for fifteen minutes or so. Just got out of the beating compound or whatever and into the square outside the building
. Good god -- this game rocks as well. It's all about immersion. It's just so real-feeling...it's great.Overall, I'm really happy with my purchase. I stopped by Best Buy on the way home today but unfortunately they didn't have Disgaea DS. Crap. I'm stuck playing boring old Hotel Dusk

N+ Episode 63
Yet another N+ speedrun. This level is a heck of a lot of fun once you get used to it -- dashing around and dodging all those enemies is pretty thrilling.

N+ Speed Run
I died on this level around 200 times before I finally beat it. I finally did, however, and my insane amount of practice allowed me to do it somewhat gracefully and quickly.

Zack and Wiki glitch
This happened in the level "Relics of the Past". I got off the machine to cross the bridge, and I promptly found myself in the lava at the bottom of the level.
