Garnett/Dagger from FFIX

I actually quite like the blades and never any difficulty finding anything, except for some games on Xbox Live Marketplace. The last dashboard update moved on feature slightly where you can stream videos from your PC, gave me about a minute of terrors until I found it again. But then again...

I installed FireNES (it's an extension for Firefox which plays NES games right in your browser) and have been trying out a whole host of old game, but one thing strikes me about all of them: they're really hard! It seems learning curves, tutorials and the like are fairly recent innovations...

Like a Barret M82? Those things are like small highly accurate artillery cannons. Not the most subtle weapon either, very loud.

Years of training and very steady hands. Good FPS snipers frustrate the hell out of me because I've seen active combat as a sniper but am completely rubbish in games.

I loved the original Mercs to death. Played thru so many times. The sequel is on my must buy list, but there's so many games coming around the same time I might have to make some tough choices. Mercs 2, Force Unleashed, Fable 2, Too Human...

I really have no problem gaming in public, either on my PSP or DS. Partly because I don't really care what other people think of me, and why should I? They don't know me. I got some funny looks as I swore at Burnout on my PSP when on a plane, but as soon as I stopped (because I was disturbing...

Because I am that damn good

I loved KotOR and KotOR2 (despite its all too obvious flaws), and Jade Empire was freakin' sweet, so I thought if Bioware can make games like those (I know, Obsidian made KotOR2) then Mass Effect had to be pretty good. And I wasn't disappointed, although the lack of variety in planet maps and...

Why doesn't Guitar Hero go the SingStar route? Release cut price games grouped (vaguely) by genre. Guitar Hero Heavy Metal, Guitar Hero Folk, Guitar Hero YeeHaw Country.

Knight of the Old Republic. I figured I'd play it once with my own moral compass, once as an evil bugger and once as a goodie two shoes. I must have finished the game at least 10 times now, and I'm still finding new things to do, new combinations to try.
