SKYLANDERS!

Oh my GOODNESS! I found what I want for Christmas! *insert crazy wiggle dance here*

SKYLANDERS

Two more games to be added to my collection :)

In order to keep my ebucks going I have to add to them at least once every few months. The easiest way for me to do this is to shop online at Kalahari.net

I enjoy shopping at Kalahari because very often I can get games which I can't find in the store, I earn ebucks and I often find bargains... like these two.

Sacred 2: Fallen Angel is an RPG for my PS3. On first inspection it looked a bit "meh" but then I started to have a look at the screen shots on Gamespot and it looks pretty cool. GS also gave it a 7, so it can't be terrible. Will be able to give a better opinion of it when I start playing.

The other game I ordered was Tales of Symphonia - Dawn of the New World for Wii. Gamespot gave it a 6.5 rating, so I'm not holding very high hopes for it, but it looks pretty. The characters have a bit of a Final Fantasy look about them, so I thought "what the hell, may as well buy it."

Alice: The Madness Returns

I'm in two minds as to whether or not I want this game. It looks, from a gaming point of view, well epic... but from a horror (read: I am a complete and utter wimp) point of view, I'm not so sure I want to take the leap and buy the game. I would also get it on PS3, so the grapics would be both awesome and scary. Yes, I am indeed a bit of a wimp :P

Gamespot did give it a review rating of 7. Bear in mind I generally won't buy a game if Gamespot gives it a rating lower than 6.

I got a new baby...

Isn't she beautiful?

My goodness me, life is busy these days…

I don’t actually know whether I’m Arthur or Martha these days, and my net at home is being iffy, which means that I’ve not been on much these days.

I have been spending a whole lot of time playing Final Fantasy XII. It’s such a great game, but incredibly challenging too. I keep getting my arse royally handed to me, BUT I’ve since figured out how to work something called a quickening. Quickenings are awesome because if you string together enough of them you kick in something called an Inferno, or if you manage to string together at least 8 or so Quickenings you get a Cataclysm, which takes out all the bad guys within your range, all in one shot. The beasties never knew what hit ‘em. Check out some of the images from the game:

Other than that, I’ve been spending a fair amount of time chatting via sms to Jay. I also called him yesterday to chat, just before going to dancing. He’s great and I’m becoming more and more attached to him… which is probably a bad thing at this point, but I guess I’ll just have to suck it up and accept that this is probably going to end in tears at some point.


Well, that’s me for the evening. I’ve got to get a few things together before I hit the sack :)
