Day 7

Tonight I'm going to try Sonic the Hedgehog 2. Determined to beat this as I've come so close before. Just need to concentrate for those last few levels.

DAY 7

Paper Mario: Sticker Star on 3DS.

Interested to hear how you get on with that, kryss. Love Paper Mario but from what I've seen it looks a little light on the RPG side - I want another Thousand Year Door damn it!

Day 1 - DIRT Showdown. First impressions aren't great. Race was ok, destruction derby things just about ok and the loading times longer than the actual races.

Day 2 - LIMBO. Genius. Thanks to PS+ for this. Puzzles will probably get a bit samey as it seems pretty limited at the moment but do love the style.

Sorry for the delay here is

Day 6 (Tuesday)

Was Sword and Sworcery for my iPhone its pretty fun and has been sitting on my phone for a long time

Days 7 (Wednesday)

Days 6 & 7

I had to do 2 games on day 7 due to other commitments:

Stranger's Wrath : Vita - Wow, this is impressive stuff. Can't wait to play more of it. Looks fantastic and plays really well so far.

Bayonetta : 360 - Bat**** insane awesomeness. Absolutely criminal how they ballsed up the PS3 version.

Paper Mario Sticker Star is awesome. I kind of don't want to play anything else...but I'll push on, perhaps keeping the "new" games a little lighter so I can enjoy PM:SS as well.

And as such...

DAY 8

Osmosis on Android, playing the tablet version on my Nexus 10.
I didn't even know I owned this until last week I checked my Humble Android Bundle 3 and it had been added AFTER I'd downloaded everything. Score!

Day 8

Tonight I'll be having a go at Comix Zone. Played this once years ago on the pc and remember it being absurdly difficult - though that might just have been because of the control scheme? anyway I'll find out later if this is as hard as I remember.

Really enjoyed Sonic the Hedgehog 2 last night. Such a fun game and there doesn't seem to be as many unfair deaths like there is in the first. Still couldn't make it to the end mind - more practice needed!

Day 8

Today i've not really had much time but now i'm home it's on to Shin Megami Tensei: Persona for the PSP have never played this but i have played bit's of the second and the third game am i'm looking forward to playing this

Comix Zone was a great idea but the execution was pretty shoddy. It felt like you couldn't avoid taking hits in some places and is brutally hard as a result.

I'm going to add in an extra challenge for myself - 12 days, 12 different consoles/devices!
This is the score so far for day/console:
1. WonderSwan Color
2. PS3
3. Wii
4. PC
5. DS
6. WiiU
7. 3DS
8. Android
Then
9...10...11...12...
It can be done - we have the technology!

I don't remember The Kingpin being so tough!

You have to rescue Mary Jane, who's being lowered into a vat of acid. The Kingpin can kill you in three punches and he has a tiny hit box on his head that you have to jump-kick.

I finally did it, but I can imagine starting from scratch if MJ dies would have been pretty frustrating!

Last night I played some Joe Danger 2, but only the first couple of levels, where I blazed Grisly Din's scores!

Day 9

Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker arrived today so I'll be giving that a go later tonight. Actually quite excited as I haven't played a proper Metal Gear game since MGS 4 was released.

It'll be interesting to see how the control scheme is setup on the PSP and what they've done with the camera.

Comix Zone was a great idea but the execution was pretty shoddy. It felt like you couldn't avoid taking hits in some places and is brutally hard as a result.

I started having flashbacks to my time with Ghouls n' Ghosts while playing Comix Zone. Far too hard. By the time I'd beat the very first stock enemy I only had about half a health bar left.

Ignoring the ridiculous difficultly level for a second, it is visually extremely impressive for a Mega Drive game. The presentation is top notch. Just a shame they dropped the ball by giving each bad guy a ludicrous amount of health.

DAY 9

Super Robot Taisen OG Saga - Masoukishin 2 - Revelation of Evil God on PSP.

PSP-exclusive follow up to Masoukishin, with Masaki back once again in Cybuster. AKASHIkKU-BUSTER!!!!

[hush]

Day 9

I've go some ideas for tomorrow game
