Comments: Games
I picked up Prince of Persia: Warrior Within again, after not playing for more than two months thanks to one of those annoying chase sequences. Many tries and shredded nerves later, I finally made it past that point in the game. Right now, I’m cruising along splendidly. That is, until the next chase sequence shows up. I hate them (or I’m too old for these thrills). I prefer the first.
Game Comment: Puzzle Quest (PS2) (4/5)
You’ve had a good book buying-and-reading month, eh? š Robin Schone … I’ve never read her before, but my reading buddies like her quite well. š
Jace – I’m okay with it. š
I thought Robin Schone’s novel really interesting. Sadly, her novels are published in trade paperback now which means I’m less likely to buy them.
LOL, you’re doing such a good job at keeping track of the books you buy!! š I tried and I just can’t ^_^;
Still can’t wait to read your review of Bitten.
Nath – thanks! I’m trying to keep my book buying in check that way. Not so easy to cheat myself into thinking I read more than I buy. *looks at recaps* At least, that is the idea.
I wanted to write/tweak my review for Bitten today but then I got it into my head to do some “spring cleaning” (living room) and well, then I was done in. *g* (I can only hope that my review will at least live up partly to all the anticipation. š )
