This week I have mostly been playing the demo of Rez and the demo of WipEout Fusion.
I got WF today, and Rez is on pre-order with SR.
How about you?
Ten minutes on a machine in Swansea.
Stage 1) "Hey, this isn't so bad... graphics are pretty cool, not as good as that crappy render mind. Time for a race."
Stage 2) "Hmmm... right, err... I'm snowboarding. Now what?"
Stage 3) "Err..."
Stage 4) *walks away*
And the controller is the most uncomfortable thing I've placed in my hands. I've had little opinion on the thing up to now, only really judging it by pictures and what others say, if judging it at all... but my God, I read that they had a team of gamers working on the controller, to make sure it was fine.
What gamers? Have they played Snake on their mobiles once or twice?
The controller sucks, badly. That's all I have to say at the moment.
But i managed to find an old gem from the PS1 too, Die Hard Trilogy. Its a damn Classic i tell you.
I've been playing a little Pokémon Stadium, and a tiny bit of Jet Force Gemini.
I played a little Age of Empires, but got attacked majorly by a third party, and turned it off.
I've probably played an emulated version of Ghould and Ghosts most. Cheating though. Saving every so often, even though you get unlimited continues!
I've been doing the Zone mode ever since I opened it up on Sunday, it's mad. I mean, completely ridiculous. As soon as you hit Zone 35 it's just.... flibble.
Or do you mean the original with Mario, like what you'd find in arcades?? I used to have that on my PC.
I've been playing the following this week and today:
ISS 2000 (N64)
Conker's BFD (N64)
Excitebike 64 (N64)
Tekken 3 (PSX)
and this Mario game I downloaded from the net.
