http://www.rocketpie.com Words about every game I play. Tue, 17 Feb 2009 06:18:38 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en Things are actually going to change around here soon. I just need to make up my damn mind... http://www.rocketpie.com/?p=97 Somehow I end up attending midnight launches for games even when I have no intention of picking the game up at midnight. Got to play about 2 hours of Mario Kart Wii tonight, 4 player. I love that you can race against the CPU in multiplayer like the DS version. ... http://www.rocketpie.com/?p=96 I completed Trace Memory the other day. Like this post the game is rather short. http://www.rocketpie.com/?p=95 I have not had the opportunity to play many games in the last few weeks due to relocating my habitat. I'm missing out on the new Halo 3 maps I hear. I did pick up Trace Memory cheap and had a chance to play for like... 5 minutes. So far ... http://www.rocketpie.com/?p=94 I've been playing Mass Effect pretty hardcore the last few weeks while I was not busy being sick. I'm surprised at some of the plot elements. Little bit of N+ here and there. Downloaded the Battlefield Bad Company beta and I think I'm over it already.

My main party consists of bitter, cynical Wrex and curious Tali. I'm really enjoying Mass Effect. Bioware really thought through the universe they present. Reading about the cultures, history and technology found throughout the game has been keeping ... http://www.rocketpie.com/?p=91 I think my obsession with Smash Bros. is winding down. Having all the characters and stages unlocked takes a big part of the motivation to keep playing away. Not having a serious number of serious players on hand also takes away part of the allure Melee had back in 2001. ... http://www.rocketpie.com/?p=90 So here I am starting another RPG that I wont' finish. I do enjoy them however! Character creation is both very detailed and limited. You can change the structure of the face very intricately but you are stuck with one hair style, which is the predominant part of the head ... http://www.rocketpie.com/?p=89 Finished the Co-op campaign tonight in N+. The highlight of the night however, was not dodging various guns and weaponry while my cohorts hit a few buttons, but instead the level editor. I made a few levels in under 5 minutes, and they turned out pretty well though they could ... http://www.rocketpie.com/?p=88
