Timesplitters 2

I don't know why, I finished Zelda and decided to return to my older titles rather than lunge into any new ones (Pokemon soon yay). I should really play the still far from complete Metroid but that bores me so I had a laugh a minute blast on the frankly excellent and addictive Timesplitters 2, had some mates over to play it too. This is turning out just like Perfect Dark on how much I play it.

So go on what have you been playing? and why?

I'll be getting AC sometime this week...

I really have no money.

Infinitely respawning psi-troopers (the ones in black Splinter Cell-esque suits) are the worst :|

And woo. I'm back playing Animal Crossing for the moment :) Since the last time I played it's been my birthday so I've got a third NES game (Excitebike) and tons of stuff to flog to Nook for loadsa Bells.

I'm getting slightly sick of Second Sight, but I guess that's because it is getting ever harder. Not too hard, but the game is slightly repetitive.

What I like about it is that they teach you a move, you use it... they then get you used to other puzzles and means of working them out and THEN they re-introduce you to a section and you're like "now what??" and then you remember that little trick you were taught 7 levels back...

Clever.

It is a top game, Free Radical Design are by far the best British developer and I'm proud of that.

I wonder if John Vattic, Jayne Wilde, Grenko and various other winter ice team mates and baddies will appear as playable characters in the Timesplitters: Future Perfect multiplayer.

Doak must have considered putting them in. It'll be great playing as John Vattic in a first person multiplayer blast. It's also a great way of advertising Second Sight, which deserves by far more attention than it is getting.



I am now tempted to get Pool Paradise :D Although I'll probably just get Animal Crossing and wait patiently for Pikmin.

12th of January?!? Bloody hell...

I thought I had it bad when my island-friend said to me:
"WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN FOR THE LAST 21 WEEKS!?!?"

;)


What have I been playing recently? Not Animal Crossing.

The last game I played, I think, was Pool Paradise. About a week ago, when I threw away THREE games in a row with frame-losing pots, and I'm now down to my last £1,000! :S

Damn you, O.J. Stumpstem! Damn you, Potman, you big, gay.... Fictional character...! :P

I haven't felt like playing anything else recently, with the growing pile I have still to play. And no, I haven't been that busy, either. Not in the evenings, anyway, when I can usually be found with my 'Cube controller in hand. Very strange...

Animal Crossing. Due to a new interest in the game, I switched it on to find half my people have moves out, weeds in nearly every square, and variations of:

"Remember the 12th of January? No? A fairly insignificant date to you? Well that was the last time you talked to me!!

:D

Been playing Second Sight.

What a fantastic game.

Nah too many games to waste time getting all the little extras.

The game started to slighty grind towards the end. Just a bit though.

Still highly recommend it.

I have mostly been playing pikmin 2. It's really good because when you think its all over and youve 'completed' it, there turns out to be more! If you havn't already got it, get it. Well worth it.

Because all the challenges and side-bits in the City to get the Pearls are fun.
