The Legend Of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass
Nov 27th
I finished Phantom Hourglass this morning. And although I can’t contradict that Zero Punctuation review in any way, it was excellent train fodder. Once you got passed the puzzles where the mic was required. However, the game did suggest clicking one’s fingers when volume was necessary. But only after I had made a git of myself on public transport.
I found it easy enough that I wasn’t frustrated for too long but still a sufficient challenge that I died a handful of times. I also enjoyed customizing my ship but doubt that I found any real kick-ass parts. I only got up to a stamina of seven and that was with the entire set of ‘Dignified’ parts.
I’m not quite sure what to move on to next. Maybe sleep.
Legend of Rock II
Nov 12th
It was a weekend of rock.
Continuing on, Guitar Hero III was located and purchased. Mainly with help from my brother who dashed and weaved through shoppers to be second in line at the register. It was subsequently played on medium untill we departed for The Killers Saturday night.
This was our vantage point. They were six layers of awesome.
Excuse the photo. Its from a phone as I was unwilling to carry a camera on a western line train in the early hours of the morning. Too many eshlads.
Legend of Rock
Nov 8th
Guitar Hero III is fantastically awesome. Exposure was had to the 360 version in a controlled work environment.
The co-op and battle modes just feel like they’re at a new level (even though my past experience with them has been limited) and I just cannot get tired of playing it. The biggest smile beams on my face when on lead for Welcome to the Jungle. Addictive as hell, I had to will myself to return to my desk.
The PS2 version shall be had by me. Big W has a sale Saturday but I foresee mayhem.
