Currently taking my maiden voyage on Rocket Knight Adventures.

How have I put this game off so long? It's incredible! The levels are dynamic, the bosses are unique and mostly fun (cough mechanical oscillating pig), and the controls are pretty much perfect. I've gotten to just about the end of Chapter 5, where you have to fight in the giant boxing robots. Lost too many lives trying to run away from the robot first and didn't have enough leftover to figure out the patterns, but I'll give it another go this evening.

I just like games where you shoot dinosaurs. :P It's the closest I can get to The Lost World: Jurassic Park (the arcade rail-shooter). I miss that game so much. :cry:

Started in on Napple Tale, which I've been really looking forward to playing since picking it up a couple months back. I'm a huge fan of Kanno Yoko, and even though she stands for just about everything I hate, I really like Sakamoto Maaya also; so the fact that they were both part of this game made it a pretty high priority for me when I found that out. The graphical style resembling something like Alice in Wonderland meets Candy Land was just an added incentive.
Sure, it's slightly girly, a bit overly simplistic, and piss easy so far, but I find it to be incredibly charming and well presented. The music is (mostly) fantastic, and aside from some frequently awkward moments where the characters break the fourth wall, the progression of the game is intriguing and well done.
I spent nearly an hour and a half just getting through the intro, exploring the hub world, and talking to people, though.

Played through episodes 1 and 2 of The Walking Dead yesterday. :shock: Some insane &*^# going on in that game. :shock:

Really like everything about this game so far, can't wait for the rest of it to be released.

No More Heroes. I think that the game would be a lot better if the motion controls were optional.

Speaking of which, my opinion on the Wii's motion controls: Gimmicky at best.
