I’ve finally been playing Grand Theft Auto : San Andreas so here’s some impressions First off this is much better than GTA:Vice City. I couldn’t get into Vice City. For one the world was boring. It was based on Florida and Florida is like the flattest state in the union so the city itself was not I recently finished playing Metroid Prime: Echoes for Gamecube. I got it back in November when it came out but at the time I put it in, played for about 20 minutes, decided it was mostly the same as Metroid Prime and put it away for awhile while I worked on Tanjunka. Recently though So I’m going to Shibuya today to meet some friends and as I get off the train I am greeted by posters saying something about a Space Invaders exhibit at the 109 building. Well, I’ve got 30 minutes to kill so I think, “sure, let’s check it out”. As soon as I get out of If you are a music game fan you need to check out I recently finished playing Metroid Prime. It’s probably one of the most perfect games I’ve played in a long time. It’s hard for me to think of how to describe what makes it so good. Metroid Prime may well be the most immersive game made to date. Almost every little detail fits inside the game. just finished playing Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus. Is that one of the worst names ever or what? Sly Cooper is good, the whole name though is quite long and not easy to read. Just my My friend Dan got me this book, The Ultimate History of Video Games and I can’t put it down!
It’s not just some essay on the history of video games, the author, Steven L. Kent, interviewed several hundred people. Every page of the book has quotes from various famous and important people in the industry I just went to both the JAMMA show and the Tokyo Game Show. The JAMMA show is a trade show for game centers/arcades. The show was pretty down/low key this time. Arcades seem to be quickly losing their appeal. There were very few games and they were mostly old stuff. I saw two gun games. Some of my friends told my I just have to play Halo. Some of them even claimed to have had no interest when it came out. “What, another first person shooter (fps)? Why would I be interested in that?” Their friends insisted that they give it a try and now all of them are Halo I was going to wait until I finished to post my current impressions but I wanted to write this while this stuff was fresh in my mind. Mario Sunshine: What can you say? It’s still Mario but with the new main moves, hose and jetpack it is a new game and not just Mario 64 |
