The part I got stuck on was this ladder on a rolling cart contraption in a dip in the ground. You have to push it, then climb and jump in order to reach the next spot, but I've never been able to coordinate it all so I can climb and jump before the cart rolls back again.
It's all subjective. I have loved some games with low scores and hated some with high scores. At the end of the day, it's really all about what the individual happens to like or not like. I think *shrug* "whatever." sums up my opinion on reviews and scores. Well written piece, by the way.
Read this and then made Jason read it. He really wants to play it, but I'm the one with the consoles. If he wants to pay for it, we'll both be playing it in the near future.
The limit for reality shows for me is Kitchen Nightmares, Hotel Hell, Hell's Kitchen, and The Amazing Race. The first three are kind of like watching a train wreck, lol.
There's a series called The Last Door that's a browser-based flash game in multiple chapters. It's free to play, and is done with old school graphics. Think survival horror point-and-click. I think Julian has reviewed them all on here. They're amazingly well-done and best played with headphones and the lights out.
Didn't do the survey. I don't have a smartphone, so most of the questions didn't really apply to me. Also, I find that sort of thing intrusive and creepy as hell. Not the survey, the delivery of ads via smartphone.
I got stuck in Limbo. I really should go back and finish it one of these days.
This conversation reminded me of this song:
Chrono Trigger is the game I always recommend for people looking to get into JRPGs.
Heh. I did some plumbing for my grandmother on Saturday before I drove back to Maine. Bought her a hand-held showerhead for her birthday and included the installation as part of her gift. I can also replace drain traps, sweat copper pipe, replace pvc water lines, turn water on and off to the buildings in the park, replace gaskets and washers, and replace all the guts in a toilet tank. Oh, yeah, and replace faucets.
Crystal Chronicles was on the Game Cube. It's not very good. No real story, and meant for co-op, but you have to use GBAs as extra controllers.
