sore arms and legs

Sunday, April 8th, 2007 at about 9:58 am

i guess that’s what you get when you play soccer too hard one day and then play guitar hero 2 for almost 4 hours! i woke up this morning and felt like i have been rock climbing or some strenuous activity. i cannot find a comfortable stance to play guitar hero. i stand, then sit, then prop my foot up and stand again. i started to play yesterday and rick was getting antsy since we only had one guitar. i jokingly said to run up to target and get another one. the game and guitar is around $90 so investing in another guitar would bump the total up to $140! this game, so worth the money, great music, graphics and animation kick butt and overall a fun experience! i think the songs are much better than the first one and hope that new songs will be available soon. i need to watch my workouts though, would be upset if i was too sore to play my monday soccer game.

xbox name = teagan01 so add me already!

Here is my brothers niece playing, she caught on really quick!

Eets: Chowdown

Thursday, February 1st, 2007 at about 9:05 pm

Back in September I did a post on Eets after purchasing it from the Penny Arcade Expo. We met a producer or developer (not sure exactly) and asked if it was coming to the Xbox 360 Arcade. I think we caught him off guard so we assumed that there was a chance!

Well, a completely upgraded version of Eets is coming to the Xbox 360 Live Arcade, with 120 brand new levels, new items, and an exclusive debut of their action game: Marsho-Madness!

a few long weekends with a few new games

Tuesday, January 2nd, 2007 at about 10:46 pm

i haven’t really updated my blog with games that i have been playing so here i go! i will start of with Elite Beat Agents for the DS. its a dancing rhythm game so of course i would be addicted to it! the Elite Beat Agents, dressed in black suits, work for an old military general and travel around the world solving people’s problems. the story lines are funny and the art presentation for the manga-style sequence is impressive. i helped an athlete with a fever get well to win his race the next day. finished the game in about 70 minutes on easy, then moved on two level two, and finally working on level 3. there are only 19 songs so i hope they release number 2 soon!

next is the Wii, no introduction needed:)

rayman raving rabbids is filled with engaging mini games! unlike super monkeyball, waste of money, rayman’s minigames work perfectly with the controller!

Wii Sports is great! not a big fan of the boxing but i am doing great in bowling. rick seems to still kick my ass in tennis.

and most addicting game right now, Viva Pinata!

starting with a small piece of land you have to make it adaptable before you can attract pinatas. it was exciting to see new pinatas arrive! i was a bit disappointed in the mini games. to make a baby pinata you need to romance two pinatas and then complete a mini game. the pinatas dance, wink wink ;) and then storkos bring you a baby pinata! i think they should have been rhythm games since the pinatas dance, just makes more sense to me. ok, and the fact that i love rhythm games.

dancing??? hmmmmm

eets! hunger. it’s emotional.

today i finally installed my copy of Eets that i purchased from the Penny Arcade Expo. Eets is an action/puzzle game made by Klei Entertainment for the PC. Eets reminds me of stitch from disneys lilo and stitch. the object of the game is to guide Eets to a puzzle piece by placing items for Eets to eat or interact with. these items change his behavior and mood. i really enjoy playing this game, especially for the cute factor!
