Play:Phoenix Wright 3 (DS) - Finished case 4. Started on case 5. INTRUIGE LEVEL
AT MAXIMUM. I just hope it ends happily else I might cry REAL TEARS.
GTA:VC (PC) - I bought this off Steam earlier in the week because I was feeling
pissed off and wanted to beat up some prostitutes. Didn't really work because
Mrs W caught me playing it and gave me a disapproving look. Also, I can't find
any of the ramps to trick off. Boo.
Triggerheart Excelica (X360) - Woo, now this is good. An interestingly
different take on the manic shooter, in that shooting is only something you
do as a last resort. Best score for level 1 so far is somewhere around 25
million, I think, including beating both bosses (I think the second boss only
appears if you complete the level without losing a life? I could be wrong).
Because of my refusal to use continues, though (apart from on my first play
through), I've barely got off the second level in any playthrough, so hopefully
there'll be lots of life in this one. That, or I'll destroy my controller in
frustration sometime soon.
Not much else. Bit of Peggle, as ever.
Want:
Bangai-O Spirits - saw a trailer for this over the weekend and my needage-meter
nearly exploded.
Disgaea DS, even though it's just another remake of the first one and all.
Bin:
Illness. Tiredness. Ugh.

Guild Wars (PC) - I'm back into this again after not logging in for
months, and carrying on with the Eye of the North expansion. It's
excellent arcade RPG fun as always, but it's been so long I haven't a clue
what the hell is going on!
Professor Layton (DS) - But only briefly to complete the weekly puzzle
which, although clever, I guessed instantly. I really need to start
progressing with the main game.
Pixeljunk Monsters (PSN) - Ok, I've stopped trying to perfect every level,
and have instead managed to progress to medium level 7.
Crazy Taxi : Fare Wars (PSP) - A £6.99 cheapy from ChoicesUK and I've only
had a quick couple of goes of the original game so far (CT2 sucks and will
most likely remained ignored anyway), but it doesn't seem half as bad as
reviews suggested. I'm not really aware of any extra slow-down and the
controls haven't shagged my hands yet, plus best of all - it has custom
soundtracks. Bouncing over the top of San Francisco style hills at high
speed with a screaming passenger in the back is much more satisfying with
the likes of The Hold Steady playing in the background. However
simplistic and repetitive it may be, handheld Crazy Taxi can only be a
good thing.
Ghost Squad (Wii) - I'm still in love with this, but not as much as I will
be when VG+ finally get the Nyko Perfect Shot gun back in stock and
fulfill the order I placed six weeks ago now.
Want:
Loads, most urgently though the Nyko Perfect Shot.
Oh, and the Echochrome demo (PSN) - I really need to set up that Japanese
PSN account.
Bin:
Work.
