I’ve reached chapter three of the best game I’ve played in a long long time. *Jade Empire*. Roleplaying at its best. I feel as if that game alone was worth buying the Xbox. (Not when I look at the price-tag, though... *sniff!)*

Well the xbox has many usages:

I sometimes think the xbox is a great buy even without games. ... ;)

I wonder if Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (or whatever it’s called) for Playstation 2 is any good.

Never heard of it. Don’t buy it. 😄

From ign.com:
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is filled with kung fu brawls. You might even say the whole game is one long brawl. So I will. This game is basically one long brawl. The general situation is this: you enter a new space and five guys run at you. As you dispatch them, they get replaced by more people running in until they run out and you can move on. Lather, rinse, repeat. ¹

Ouch. That’s a caustic review. I saw the trailers of Shinobi for the PS2 and it looks rather good. Anyone played it?

Shinobi seems to be the über-ninja game that is *incredibly* difficult according to reviews I read. Not my kind of game.
I’m impressed by its finer points, but on the other hand, I probably screamed more profanities at this game than every other title I’ve played this year. I’m not sure if there’s such a thing as “too hard,” but if you don’t have any problem with that designation, it belongs on Shinobi. ²

Hmm. I’ve played all the old ones and managed to finish all of them too. The trailer on ³ is really slick though. 😄

I’ve locked this page since it seems to have found its way into a spambot’s database...
