Agree with you Piers RE the Zelda games, the story is tired.


Windwaker was a bit different, but all the sailing around got annoying... Windwaker was meant to have been the future of one time line of Ocarina of time, and TP carries on from another or something like that...


I would prefer it if they would just make NEW games featuing the SAME Link, rather than some kid in a village somewhere who bares a resembalence to the hero of time and all that bo!!ocks.



Having said all that, I really enjoyed TP, especially a couple of new bits like chasing down the carriage on your horse and shooting arrows whilst riding. And the final one on one swordfight was cool!


Oh, and the cave of ordeals or whatever it was called was a bit of a mission... Took me several tries to get through all 50 rooms (having once failed on room 49... I literally throw the controller and screamed). The sense of acheivment after that was better than finishing the whole (basically quite easy) game!

Am reinstalling Hearts of Iron II tonight on my Mac. It's a totally nerdy WWII simulation/management game that takes hours to play and is really involving.


Just finished Bioshock on the Xbox 360 - loved the story and atmosphere, was probably a bit too easy for my liking though.


CofD III is still my fave, apparently they're going back to WWII for CoDV. As you can probably tell, I like WWII games.

another 3 hours yesterday - a few more missions just to open things out a bit and the story appears to be better written/acted than before


but it's isn't all about that - the living breathing city is.... stunning. The amount of "things" that just happen is incredible...


some random examples

    • Very happy to recommend Tommy Rooney's excellent work again. He's been servicing my boiler for years now, but this time he swiftly fixed a leaky radiator valve. I put out a call on Friday and it was repaired - and improved - by Monday evening. I asked him if he had an opinion about my other radiators, and he reassured me as he pointed out the leaky bathroom rad was a non-standard length, which was why it caused problems. There followed a brief but detailed history of improvements in regulations for valves and fittings over the years, so that I could understand precisely what the issue was. How many plumbers will do that for you? "I've just got a memory for weird things," says Tommy modestly.
    • Wanted 2 x Adult and 1 x Children tickets for Dulwich fireworks tonight please!
    • Labour have changed a number of things overnight.   1. VAT on school fees - this has resulted in 25,000 moving until state education. 2. Increasing NICs adding billions to the cost of going to work. 3. Introducing the Employment Rights Bill causing employers to stop hiring. This and item 2 have added 100,000 people to the unemployment scrapheap. These are also causing businesses to relocate further harming the economy. 4. Scrapping all the small boats deterrents meaning 60,000 illegal migrants have arrived in small boats since they were elected. 5. Dishing out huge public sector payroses with no conditions so we have a massively increased payroll and doctors etc arestill going out on strike. 6.changed IHT and non domicile tax rules causing 16,500 millionaires to leave the UK and stop paying any tax here at all forever. 7. Alongside 6, leaving the budget up until an historically late period after the last budget has caused a house price crash, killing the market and decimating government stamp duty receipts. 8. Their profligate borrowing (£100bn extra in just one year) to fund all their lavish promises means the government can now only borrow at the highest ever yields on records. They are more beholden to the bond markets than Liz Truss was. 9. The rate of inflation has doubled under this government. It was a healthy 2% when they came in. For most of the last year, as a result of all of the above it is now nearly 4%.   These are all decisions the Labour government took that have immediate cause and effect.  Its no good harking back to 15 years ago. The current administration was gifted the fastest growing economy in the G7 and within 15 months they have destroyed it.    And things are only going to get worse this winter.
