There was a marathon during the past week and a half, so Might and Magic III: Isles of Terra is now officially on the completed list. I intend to make a set of quick and easy guides providing information I couldn’t find online when I was playing the game, but for now, I thought I’d make a sort of “looking back” report. It’s a big and lengthy game, so my impressions have changed, several times during my playing of it.
Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow is the third and final Castlevania game on the GameBoy Advance. After playing through it for a while and even getting pretty close to gathering all the extras in a single game, my save slot is at 10 hours and 20 minutes, right before the final boss battle. That puts it between Circle of the Moon and Harmony of Dissonance on the length scale, probably slightly closer to Circle of the Moon, if you exclude the optional stuff. Why would you, though?Continue reading
Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance is a shorter game compared to Circle of the Moon, that’s for sure. Compared to 10 and a half hours on record and probably about 12 hours in total with Circle of the Moon, it took me 7 hours and 15 minutes on record to win Harmony of Dissonance. I also died less often, I think, so the total time was probably slightly over 8 hours. Is it better or worse, though?
Lately, there’s a tone in most of my postings. My tastes are moving away from story focused games into what I sometimes accidentally call “actual games”, even though every single game I’ve played is an “actual” game. Basically, I’m sort of being an ass about things, again. Recently, I started playing Batman: Arkham Asylum, and it’s getting a bit difficult to use the same brush I’ve been using lately. You know, the wide one.Continue reading
I’ll be honest. A minor part of why I started playing Dungeon Keeper is because I’ve been thinking about doing it for a while. A major part, though, is because a mobile sequel was released and there’s a lot of controversy around it. I get what the controversy is about and where it’s coming from, but I’ve been trying to stay positive lately, so instead of saying why I hate a game I probably won’t ever play, I thought I’d play the first Dungeon Keeper and talk about why I love it. First, however, I have a confession to make.Continue reading
It took me about four weekends of marathon play to be able to say I’ve beaten Planescape Torment and it was absolutely amazing. There’s no need to write any sort of review. Planescape Torment is an amazing game any RPG fan with an open mind needs to play. It’s a story you play through instead of just watching it and that should be reason enough.Continue reading
After about eleven of twelve hours of game play in total, and exactly 10 hours and 35 minutes being shown on my save file, Castlevania: Circle of the Moon is now completed. There are extra modes to play through, but I probably wont invest a lot of time into that. Now that the game is over, I’ll try and give a second overview – one that will hopefully be more accurate.Continue reading
Heart of Winter is pleasantly surprising me with the quality of the content. I expected a high-level hack and slash fest, but the parts I’m going through have great writing, great voice acting, tough combat and interesting puzzles. It’s the whole package.Continue reading
Well, that’s another Android game that I’ve marathoned through. It took me over ten hours to get to the ending, but there’s little to write about while playing Fiz, which should explain the lack of articles.Continue reading
I said there’d be less writing and more playing, but I honestly didn’t plan to write just two reports about Vandal Hearts. Still, this is exactly what happened. After about thirteen hours, Vandal Hearts is won.Continue reading
