Gaming update~

[candyland]

A while back, I picked up a game on the recommendation of the lovely cherelle_holmes. The game was called Feel the Magic XX/XY. It's basically a bunch of rather silly minigames linked together along a singular premise.

Here's the deal: you're trying to help a guy impress this girl. And you do this with the help of a group called the Rub Rabbits by doing performances to get her attention. You have to save her a couple of times from small dangers, like rampaging bulls and sentient, man-eating plants. (I WANT THAT LEVEL TO BURN JUST LIKE THE PLANT DID *foams*)

Verdict? This might be the weirdest game I've ever played. It was just strange. But the visuals were really cool--very unique. So I'm not sure if I'll be replaying anytime soon, but it was definitely worth the ride.

Currently working on finishing a game that lwyn let me play, called Time Hollow. I'm so close to the end, might just wrap that one up today...she lent me another one that looks very creepy. And I like creepy \o/ I need to finish them quickly so I can get them back to her.

Otherwise, finally plugging in Hotel Dusk: Room 215 on the insistence of my dahling ammchan. I've had the game for a while. Just hadn't gotten around to playing it. So far it's...slow. Really slow. It wouldn't be quite as bad if I could make the text go faster. But I'm told it picks up pretty quickly, so I'll stick with it for a while.

Oh, and if you own a PSP and you have not played Patapon, then half your life is gone.

One of my more frivolous New Year's resolutions was to try and get through some of my backlog of handheld games. And I am actually making good headway on that, it seems! Keeping the ol' Backloggery up to date is turning into a daily event. Like most other things that involve checking something as completed, it's ridiculously satisfying!


If today goes anything like yesterday did, there will be a fic posted tonight. I think I might be over my dry-spell :D

Oh, you're playing Hotel Dusk? Yeah, it starts pretty slow, but the game is amazing, and the ending is one of the best I've ever seen.

Time Hollow looks interesting o-o

Yup. I'm not very far into it yet (still on Chapter 1), but I've been told that it picks up, so I'm going to stick with it and see where it goes.

It is interesting. Very unique story idea. It takes a bit to sort of figure out where the story is going, but now I really want to see where it winds up.

I played Feel the Magic when it first came out, and the 2nd game, Rubbing Rabbits??? or something, God I wish to own them again~ Such odd amusement~

Time hollow: YAY NEAR THE ENDNESS!!! I was looking for it and couldn't remember if you had takken it with you or if you had left it here, lol now I know.

Therisa: IZ GOOOOOOD. Only I FAIL at that type of game, unless I get it instantly (like I do with 90% of games) I tend to never finish TT^TT and I want someone to tell me what happens~~~~~~

Hotel Dusk: YOU'RE A WHORE FOR HAVING IT AND NOT TELLING ME CUZ I'VE BEEN WANTING TO PLAY IT

I thought there was soemthing else I was gonna tell you...*ponders*

GET THE VALKYRIE PROFILE FOR THE DS. BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO BE THE ONLY ONE BABBLING ABOUT IT

[candy--chan.livejournal.com]

I got it a while ago, but just now started playing it XD Didn't take long to beat! And I thought I'd left Time Hollow, but it wound up in my little game bag ;o; I will send it back to you soon, lovey! TT^TT

...I told you I had Hotel Dusk when we were at Fry's. I pulled out my little game case and showed you XDD But yes, Theresa is high on my list so I can give it back to you :D AND I WILL TELL YOU WHAT HAPPENS, IF YOU LIKE!

:O I can look into that game... *research tiemz!*

[lwyn.livejournal.com]

I know you showed it to me at work, but STILL!!!! *hates you*
please do tell me what happens, I want to know but its so complex... and you know how my brain works.

YOU SHOULD JUST BUY IT CUZ I TELL YOU TOO!!!!! *also has the guide, if only for the sexy art that always comes with VP*

[candy--chan.livejournal.com]

W-why the hate, lady? I love you so... ;3;

I will let you know. Might even start it today, 'cause having two games going at once is more fun--have something to switch to when frustration starts! Although if it's that complex...here's hoping I can figure it out *pokes fingers together*

0.0 I WILL LOOK INTO IT? I PROMISE! *guide? paws at now*

D'aaaw, Feel the Magic was my very first DS game. :B I still have it in a drawer.

Also I've played Roco Loco does that count ;3; I only learned about Patapon after my brother Josh sold his PSP.

[candy--chan.livejournal.com]

It was an interesting game, to say the least XD Although I'd sort of like to kick whoever designed the Plants game. For whatever reason, I had trouble beating that stupid level!

:O I am not familiar with Roco Loco! *vows research*
