November Den Den Town Wrap Up

Friday, November 23rd, 2007

While today was supposed to be filled with love, instead the air carried the equally pleasant aroma of video game shopping. I had a date planned, but unfortunately the fair lass has a serious case of the feeling-like-shits, so she had to cancel this morning. This left me near Osaka with nary a thing to [...]

Huzzah!

Get thy stethoscope and quest

Thursday, November 22nd, 2007

Well, there are twenty minutes left in the day. Then I bike with all my might to hope that they are not sold out of DQ4DS at the local game retailer.

キノピオ would be the Japanese name of what we fondly refer to as Toad. And the little fucker is filling up my Wii inbox with requests.

Sixty Nine, wooo!

Just knocked out a few more stars tonight. Got annoyed for the first time with the damn spring suit. Once I figured out the timing to do the power jump (you have to hit A just as the spring starts to compress) it became mildly easier, but the lack of control that is given as [...]

55 and loving it

Monday, November 19th, 2007

Just grabbed star numero fifty five after beating the fourth big boss. I’m becoming even fonder of this game as I keep playing it. The variety is just right and everything feels spot on. Especially the gravity, which I didn’t realize how important it would be to this game. Hell, the gravity is really the [...]

Woo-hoo!

I got working what I wanted to get working.
To your left you will see a few new things. I wanted to have ways of updating little bits of random information or to keep a log of my progress on a game. This will let me do that. In the “Currently Playing” section, as it can [...]
