I’ve managed to finish all but two episodes. The two that remain each contain a really tough level that I can’t seem to complete. One requires wall jumping off movable platforms surrounded by mines, and the other is a long section with many simple parts that combine in a near impossible whole. It’s not completely impossible, but it takes skill and practice.

Games Tryout, Take 2
I decided to try a few games, to see if I’ll play them in the future.
Space Siege (PC)
I really don’t like this one. The mouse moves in an unnatural way, and the entire game is overly simplified. The graphics are not so nice either, so they tried to mask it with allot of special effects which didn’t turn out so well. I won’t be playing this one.
Bangai-O Spirits (DS)
It’s nice, but it just isn’t me. I can understand why so many people like it, but it’s not the type of game that I like to play. I may give it another shot later.
Bionic Commando Rearmed (PC)
This one is quite nice. Once you get used to the play style, the game is really fluid, and there’s allot of things to unlock (as far as I can tell). I will probably play this one, but not too soon, since I have other games that I haven’t finished yet.
N+ (DS), Part 1
I got this one yesterday. It’s every bit as great as the flash version. I’ve finished a total of 34 out of 39 episodes, each containing five levels. I think the game is a bit easier on the DS. I’m guessing this one will be completed soon.
River King – Mystic Valley (DS), Part 5
I got two new fishes in the first area. I also got three new cards. I haven’t played for long, so nothing else happened. My pet is one level before being maxed out. I bought all the lure types, so bait really isn’t an issue anymore.
Titan Quest – Immortal Throne (PC), Part 6
It’s multiplayer again. The Orient is cleared, and we’ve gotten to the second half of the expansion. It’s starting to get really difficult. We still have no problem killing, but the damage we receive has greatly increased. Most enemies can kill us in two or three hits. It is a bit easier than with my first character though.
Titan Quest – Immortal Throne (PC), Part 5
I played with a friend in multiplayer. He’s a Wanderer and I’m a Pyromancer. We’ve cleared Greece and Egypt and have just arrived to Babylon. It’s much easier then with my first character.
River King – Mystic Valley (DS), Part 4
I haven’t done much. All I did was catch fishes I missed in the first area. There are lots of them, and some are quite rare, so it takes a while. My pet did advance by a few levels. His ability is flight, but I’m not sure where I can use it.
Titan Quest – Immortal Throne (PC) (COMPLETED)
The game is finished. I crossed the river Styx and fought and defeated Charon there. Now a bridge is built across the river and everyone will have the right to pass. Afterwards, I’ve reach Elysium which was under attack by Hades’ forces. Fighting my way trough, I solved a bunch of quests, and in the end entered Hades’ fortress. In there, I first freed Persephone from her chains and then fought my way towards the throne where Hades was waiting.
Hades wasn’t that hard. I think Typhoon was way harder. The first form was disposed of in a few seconds. The second took a little longer, but it still wasn’t that hard. I was able to just stand and hack away most of the battle. Finishing the game unlocked the legendary difficulty, but I’m not that eager to play it. It’s a good game, but not Diablo.
Titan Quest – Immortal Throne (PC) (SEMI-COMPLETED)
So the original part of the game is completed. All that’s left now is the expansion. Typhoon was a pain as my character really isn’t that powerful. The Expansion is just a single chapter after the original game. It takes place in Hades as far as I can see. After killing Typhoon, a portal opened which took me to Rhodes. Right now, I need to see the sorceress Medea about something.
EDIT: After fighting my way through a forest, I got to the hideout of Medea. In order for her to help me, I had to get an artifact from the swamp. While doing this I also solved a bunch of side quests. After bringing her the artifact, she opened the portal to Hades for me. The portal actually transported me to an outpost built at the entrance to Hades. This is where I stopped playing for now.
Titan Quest – Immortal Throne (PC), Part 2
I’ve killed the Telkine in Egypt and then I followed another one to Babylon. There, I failed to stop him from getting the Sickle of Khronos. Right now, I’m on my way to China. My character is level 20, and is slowly starting to get powerful. I just hope I chose a good mastery combo.
EDIT: I’ve reached and crossed over the Great Wall. Right now, I’m in a village at its base.
