I tried that Ryu/Rock simultaneous super trick that Tetsuwan Convoy mentioned earlier, if you have maxed out level five bar you can throw in another Rock machine gun combo after you call out Ryu again which can rack up a neat 100+ combo and nab you that "tatsunical (?)" remark from the announcer.
All in all that takes off roughly half the health bar, I don't know if that's a good way to use five bars if you're playing competitively.
You're welcome!Quote:

Definately gonna have to get that too methinks.
There probably are better ways to waste 5 bars of super-power, but I am tempted for the challenge.:DQuote:

Had a House of the Dead: Overkill multiplayer run with a few friends on Tuesday night. We blitzed through Director's Cut mode. Oh wow, fully upgraded automatic shotgun is an insanely overpowered weapon, mutants drop from one shot, goregasms are dead easy to obtain and boss fights are unbelievably easy. Not a balanced weapon at all.
auto shotty=pwnt. but it is gooood fun!
I have been slowly plugging through. I just bought the assault rifle, jazzed up its reload rate by one and the thing is blitzing the zombies! I did the Train ride level with the normal Shotgun and aslt rifle and it was easy. Not much comboing, but the boss went down super easy thanks to rifle.Quote:

Finally finished the normal run of HOTD. Very funny twas too. Aaaa, that game is nicely polished.
Picked up Tenchu Shadow Assasins yesterday.
I have been a fan of Tenchu since I bought it on a whim for the PS1 (twas calles Tenchu: Stealth Assasins). They have been ok, but nothing great on PS2. Never played Z so I was kinda excietd seeing it on wii, so I snapped it up.
Quite a change from the rest of the series. No more running around on roof-tops, lots of sneaking around alleyways and the like. Cool thing is now you can blow out lights and shadows appear (or light dissappears depending on your point of view:p) and you can really hide in the shadows. Lots of nice stealth kills that vary with the way you swing nun-chuk and wiimote. WHich is also a bit of downfall for the game.
Over reliance on motion controls (MC from now on). You use MC to dash from place to place, do the kills and defend when in a sword fight. I am not a fan f some MC as they are very loose and often you get the wrong move (re:Links Shield Bash menouvre). Problem being that from the 4 hours or so that I have played, everytime I encountered a sword fight, I have failed. That includes the mission/tutorial section....
You take turns swinging the sword with your enemy. They attack, you defend, break their attack and you can attack them. It works like this, they will go to swing and a red line will flash up showing you the type of stroke that is coming (eg horizontal/vertical) and you must hold wiimote 90 degress to the line(so horizontal stroke coming, hold wiimote vertical to block) do this for a couple of attacks and its your turn to attack. Swing wiimote. Arrows appear indicating best direction to swing for effiecient attacks. then the enemy gets another go. Here it gets hard. The indicator line goes really quick now and while the enemy seem to be able to withstand a good number of hits from you, one good one from them and you dead.
Add to that the MC are a little off in execution makes non-stealth kills a real pain in the ass. I would have preferred the option of playing with the classic controller myself....
nice graphics, good sound. Gameplay a bt hit and miss, like the sword fights.:D
I give it 6/10
Hopefully it will tide me over until Madworld comes out next month.:D
Oh and on anothe note, Nintendo have their member website thing up and running now, so you can claim use ponts to get stuff. But the points only come from Nintendo games.
Anyone gonna play Sonic and the Black Knight? I wanna know if its a bad as I think it probably is...;)
How about that last boss eh? Saggy!Quote:

Only problem I have is that it won't read the SDHC card in Guitar Hero World Tour.
Any one else had this problem
