Mass Effect

2009-06-29 09:04: Dammit, I hate games where you have to save manually. I just lost an hour of play because I forgot to save (and died).

Smackdown vs RAW 2007

2009-06-06 23:00: My first fight is vs. the Big Show. Damn. ... and he won, the big bully.

2009-06-06 23:30: Yes! Won against Viscera, that freak. This Season Mode is pretty weak.

Bionic Commando Rearmed

• 2009-06-23: Played a bit of BC:R for real today. It was great to see some of the other weapons, I especially like the shotgun; just landing in front of an unsuspecting dude and blowing his head off is very satisfying. The bosses are great - they are all structured as puzzles, and when you've understood what to do, you'll usually just finish them off without much trouble. But some levels of this game are just punishing; for instance, level 6 is pretty rough.

• 2009-06-29: Finally got through level 6. The fighting in this level is fine, but the jumping is just unfair. I fell into the water so many times it hurts. But now I've got the bionic arm upgrade. Awesome.

R-Type Dimensions

2009-02-15: Wauw! My lowly score of 218,000 in R-Type Classic mode landed me the 1165th global rank. My highest rank yet! :)

2009-03-05: Even though I'm pretty drunk right now, I got a rank 1011 in R-Type II. :)

Puzzle Quest

Dead Space

• 2009-07-03: I have not been playing Dead Space for a while now. I played on Hard, and it wass just too much. The fear of mutated freaks lurking around every corner is bad enough in itself - it is much worse when they actually kill you once in a while. So I ramped it down and resumed my game on Normal difficulty. Actually, I'm a bit dissatisfied with the difficulty; it is just a little too easy on normal and a little too hard on hard.

Thanks to Joakim for this wonderful Christmas present!
