Things I Learned from Banjo Kazooie

Crapping eggs seems to fix every problem I’ve come into contact with. Flowers need to grow? No problem! Bucket has a hole? FIXED!

3pm Mad Monster Mansion cleared, bonus retarded Banjo?

3:40Pm Rusty Bucket Bay, I am told I will loathe this level and want to quit the game here. Sounds fun.

April 24th

Half Dead and Half Alive yesterday I started playing Persona 3 FES. I still have a lot of questions from the first few days, but the anime sequences work so well in this title. I’ve only briefly messed with the battle system and it seems fine, I stopped on my first visit to Tartarus.

The main character is your standard … protagnist although I did catch him saying Persona! He has a very emo look to him which probably should be standard if you shoot yourself in the head to summon demons.

The first character you meet is Yukari who is supposed to be your stereotypical popular girl who sucks at everything. in reality. So far she is terrified of pulling the trigger which almost led to us being killed.

The we have Junpei who is the class clown and probably the first character that a gamer will love or hate with no in between. Most of the info I have on him so far relates to school and not Head Shooting Time.

Then there is this stuck up purple-red haired girl who is on the student council. I haven’t seen her do anything but boss people around, she sucks so far.

Akihiko is this grey haired boxer, also haven’t used him as hes on the injured list but his voice actor + his actions make this guy awesome.

Shuji is the leader of the SEES which is short for something but its the GUN SHOOTING HEAD KILL DEMON SCHOOL CLUB. Why didn’t my school have this?

and then the mysterious Igor who is all kinds of awesome, he lives inthe demensions between Dreams and Reality. You signed some contract with him and thats the thing I want to know most, what is it?

1:25PM My take on Prey, “Sickness Simulator”. Its amazing how much this game abuses gravity in its gameplay, when Portal did it I never felt like throwing up. This game encourages it.

2:21PM And Gobi’s Valley is now complete jiggy wise, off to my childhood nemesis Mad Monster Mansion!

April 22nd

Tomorrow is Persona 3 FES’ release , I bought Lego Star Wars 2 The Original Trilogy for 360 off half yesterday so that’ll be here in a week or two.

Half Life 2:I wish I had a screenshot of this but I finally made the jump in the chapter Water Hazard. It was then I followed a black helicopter, ran over some storm trooper look alikes and hit a dead end. I then backtracked a few steps and found a warehouse, inside were a lot of storm troopers. I was happy all my Team Fortress 2 time was finally paying off as I finally could use the guns pretty well. Near the exit to this warehouse I was greeted by annoying drones which I shot down.

Oh got to mention I picked up my first grenades which I used accidently blowing myself up not once but three times. When I got to the back of the warehouse there was a crank needed to lift the wall impeeding my watercraft progress, unfortunately it was broken. So I stopped here.

Banjo Kazooie:Bubble Gloop Swamp is done, and its off to this fine level

Freezezy Peak, my favorite level in the entire game…well at least up to mad monster I’ve never been to Rusty Bucket Bay or Click Clock Wood.

1pm:and that wraps that up

2:37PM I’ve recently started Halo (behind the times much?) and while I don’t mind aspects of it. Its pretty dull, and when you get control of the Wart Hog its pretty much hopeless. You drive this by pressure on the left joystick and turn with the camera designated right joystick. So unless you’re moving in a straight line its hopeless, and even then you can wildly turn to your doom.

Meet my nemesis (forgive my digital camera… it tries)

That bridge has killed me so many times it isn’t funny. Driving the warthog is a serious serious pain.

4:18Pm I’m enjoying Suikoden so far, dungeons are super super short and leveling really doesn’t matter like I was told as they flow like water. I stopped when I got this party member…

7:09PM Some World End’s With You took place before this but its such a hassel to screenshot my DS especially with a fast paced game like that. Also the spoilers are so plentiful. So back to Banjo Kazooie I go and my next stop is this place

Gobi’s Valley. Which if memory serves has a lot of annoying mummies, annoying quicksand, and seizure vision graphics.

April 21st

This is pretty much my gaming blog, I may rant on somethings …well a lot of things but only some will be non gaming related. I am a gamer who strives to beat games, at the moment of writing this my list sits at 804 games.

Banjo Kazooie

Considering I haven’t played this since… 1999 I have a strange memory of most of the game up to Mad Monster Mansion when I quit being afraid of it. So in the four levels and overworld thus far I’ve collected 36/40 jiggys and only missed 2 musical notes (and somehow have 21 Mumbo Tokens). YET, it took me 40 minutes to find Bottles in Bubble Gloop Swamp!

Thats the entrance the next image has where Bottles is…

Like 5 freaking feet from the entrance -_-
