Got a fair bit further in HL 2.

It's a World of Warcraft holiday weekend in the Alterac Valley battleground which is why I haven't been posting much.

Forza 2. It's just like Forza 1 except it's buggered my Xbox 360. It could be because I played for three hours straight in a fairly warm room. It hasn't completely broken it but it had some trouble loading textures so for a few races there was no road to drive on, just an abyss. I don't know if that's normal for Forza 2.


I found out the Demo Mode problem is only with this one particular KVM I just happend to buy because it kind of fits in with the Xbox 360 theme. Fanfuckingtastic. I've sort of found a way around it by pressing the guide button straight after the boot screen. It usually works but not all the time.

I have trouble connecting to the PC to play music during games. I think that's something to do with WMP11.


I'm still having fun with it, though.

Played a few 360 demos and some Star Trek for the DS. Really need a new RPG, I just hope Two Worlds pans out.

More of the Halo 3 Beta.

Guitar Hero 2. I saw Phoenix playing Halo 3 and I was thinking about play it but I resisted.

More PSU.

Yesterday, I found a very rare weapon board(a board is an item in which you need to craft / synthasize the weapon.
I have 2.5 million meseta, and 3 million is the most I have ever had at once. But if things pan out, I can sell this board for 5 million.

That game is so awesome!

Played the demos for Techu Z and Hour of Victory. Tenchu may be my next 360 purchase depending on the full game's merits but I get a lot of the PS1 Techu's vibe from it which is good. Not a hardcore stealth game but a fun one.

Hour of victory is a average MoH clone with a few added elements like stealth, climbing and lock-picking among others all done via single button presses. It's got that strange yoga master rag doll physics where sometimes you kill a guy and he bends backwards in half on the spot or in mid-air. For it's sake they better hope they've improved the controls in the final build, it's loose and inaccurate especially when the action is fast.

Tales of Phantasia- About 24 or so hours in. Outstanding game though I'm kinda at a loss for where I'm supposed to be finding the objects I need to proceed. I have a light saber weapon for Cress/Cless though so all's fun.

Final Fantasy XII- I dunno what's going on in this game but I'm proceeding along. Roughly  24 hours in as well. Due to the rather slow paced story I've been playing this off and on since December. Perhaps that's why I have no idea what is happening. Fun stuff though.
