9 hours, 37 minutes is how long it takes. What that time doesn’t include, however, is at least two hours spent on multiple attempts to scale two very irritating spinny poles with blades on while in Hades. That was very very annoying. An excellent game, if a little short – reminded me a lot of

for me to clean out my mailbox. Do I really need 40,000 emails dating back to the tail end of 2002? I think not. Another thing – if there’s one thing I hate it’s blog comment spam. I enabled comments at 5:30, before leaving work, cos I’ve had a lot of requests. By the time

Well, continuing with God of War – I’ve complet0r4ted the bottom levels of Pandora’s temple. I had to navigate an extremely annoying section whereby I had to wander about aimlessly on some very narrow beams very high in the air, and jump over nasty spinny blade things. I think I died about forty times (at

Muhh – challenge of Atlas and Cliffs of Atlas pwn0red. <b>And</b> I yanked the head off some poor dead guy to use his skull as a key. No, really! And then I jumped onto a big rolly spiky thing and barrel-ran along it and jumped onto a ladder. Or was that before the head-pulling bit?

Well, I had a wee 45 minute session at this tonight. Just hacked and slashed my way through the Challenge of Atlas, which was…..interesting. It’s getting pretty important to get power ups, though – the enemies are getting pretty tough (and I just HATE gorgons). The game remains stunning, visually, and although it’s essentially Gauntlet

He’s really not a very nice man. In fact, one particularly girly jumped off the top of a building trying to get away from him. It’s also a little suspect that murdering innocent bystanders is a handy way to get health quickly :-/ Anyhoo, I’m on the road to Athens. In the background there’s a

Got this on a loaner – a friend of mine reckoned my boy would like it, given he’s really into greek mythology. Having seen it, however, there’s no chance in hell he’s playing it just yet – for a couple of reasons: Firstly, it really isn’t suitable for kids. It has an eighteen certificate on

I dunno why everyone slates this game. It’s ACEBEST. Alright, so it’s basically a horizontally scrolling beat-em-up but in 3D, but it’s with LIGHTSABRES and FORCE EVILNESS and tons of unlockable characters. I suspect my youngest lad is a bit of a jedi ninja though, cos he keeps gubbing me in multiplayer. Anyway, I’m at

I have an almost irresistable urge to write this entry in Martian, but I shall resist. ‘k, quick databurst. Third person, walking and flying a saucer, death ray, zapomatic, brain sucking anal probe (god knows what kind of traffic I’m going to get from google after this) and good old fashioned alien abductions. The intro
