Friday, March 28, 2003 Zelda I forgot to blog about the new Zelda game for the 'Cube, which I rented from Hollywood Video on Monday. Many good things have been said about the game, while a fair amount of criticism has been leveled at the games new visual direction. For those who don't know, Zelda: The Wind Waker, is all cell-shaded an looks, pretty much, exactly like a cartoon. It, in a word, is visually amazing. I have played it for maybe 2 hours total in the 5 days that I've had it, so i am by no means a fair judge, but it isn't really holding my interest. I'm only on the first "level", which is the infiltration of a pirate stronghold. The mechanic on this level is like Metal Gear lite. You have to sneak around spot lights and past guards while hiding under empty barrels. Fun, but it gets pretty old pretty quick. I don't know... I just don't have the attention span, nor the time, to dedicate to these types of video games any more. Sad but true. Now I'm just chilling at Greg and Christine's house. Enjoying the last evenings of quite before the students return. Drinking mojoitos and watching the Wives play "Circus Atari" on Greg's old 2600. Julie and I walked around Downtown after I escaped from work this afternoon to enjoy the gorgeous weather. I picked at the "Fischerspooner" CD from Borders which I am very interested to hear. I've only heard their one single and read a few articles and reviews about them. Sounds like it should be quite interesting. posted by JMV | 3/28/2003 07:54:00 PM | |
