I went the cheap route and bombed him with holy water.

Just beat Contra and Castlevania 2. I'm loving having a working NES again.

Yeah, I'm doing Aleph One. Co-op would be fun, but maybe later. I've only played for a few minutes and am still trying to get a handle on the controls. I'll send out a smoke signal when I get to a point where I could play with someone without dying of embarrassment (the only other FPS I've ever played on a computer is the Wheel of Time game, so yeah...).

I started Shenmue yesterday, started it again, and will start it again today.

I'm really enjoying the game. It really draws me in. I don't get tired of playing it. When I actually get further along in the game I'll provide more detailed, updated opinions.

On my first attempt, I accidentally pressed the wrong button on the kitten event, played for a few days, and realized it was going to die, so I started over. On my second try, I played to near the end of the second day, and the game froze. I'm about to try again.

As my first order of business in my attempt to reclaim my lost PS2 memory, I've been playing a level (two stages) of Shinobi each day whenever I can sneak it in. I haven't really played the game since last summer, but I guess my muscle memory is still there, because I'm rocking this game pretty hard. I've gotten several S-ranks on stages. I remember the first time I went through the game, it took me days to overcome Stage 6-a (the largely vertical factory-ish place). I just now beat it in two tries. Bosses that were serious challenges last year go down in one mighty swing of my sword. So here's what I'm going to have to figure out: was this game just a one trick pony, or has the real game, the score attack, only just started. I'm thinking it's the latter. In my original play though, I floundered around trying to scoop up the enemies before my tate expired, and was probably more like 50% successful. Now, I'm dashing here and there, casually slicing and dicing all that stands before me. I guess I became the super cool shinobi the game promised me I would be. I still wish I had some measure of control over Hotsuma as he plummets straight down.
