Tried staring the night with some Ninja Gaiden II and wasnt able to see my secondary weapons. If I picked up the powerup that give you an orange clone ninja thing though I could see that guy only when I took damage and dissapeared from the screen. It was interesting. I figured NGIII would have a similar issue so I just jumped to another game. Any ideas on how to get around this problem? I can use my VCR, but I'd much rather do my playing on the computer since it saves me a step and has better quality results.
Spent a lot of time playing Dr. Mario after that. I know the game loops at stage 24 so my goal is to conquer stage 24 on medium. Made it to stage 23 a few times, but couldnt quite get by. Sucks since if you lose your back to stage 20.
Took a break and played a couple hours (yes hours) of Where's Waldo?. I'm quite happy to say that, like Jaws, I'll never have to play it again!! I noticed I was getting better and better at finding him so I didnt want to quit playing and have to get used to looking for his blurry, pixelated, little ass again. Luckily the hardest stage by far to find him was the second one so whenever I screwed up it was easy to reset. There were 3 mini-games that broke up the 5 searching areas. The first mini-game in the cave was super easy, but the clock you pick up randomly adds or subtracts 1 minute from the 7 minutes I had to complete the game. If it subtracted it basically meant game-over. The second mini-game was the most interesting and most frustrating. You have to navigate a small maze and collect, Waldo and his Glasses and then escape. If you touch the Evil Waldo-ish thing your time plummets so fast that there is no hope for recovery even if you only graze it for a second. It was fun figuring out how to navigate the maze, but losing time to your Evil self was much to harsh. I'm sure you'll agree that its the most exciting video I'll ever post though!
Future Plans - I've got some time off from work this week which means I'll have less gaming time for a while. But on the bright side I can catch up on all my uploading!
