I’ve played a little Pikmin–I’m on Day 5, or so. Neat game. Not sure I like the time limit, though. That’s removed in the sequel, as I understand it, so perhaps I’ll find it to be better still.

The big item, though, isn’t Pikmin, but .hack//INFECTION. I’ve played four or five hours of it, so far, and I think it’s quite nifty. The battle mechanics are fairly simple, but it’s fun. I do wish that it didn’t take quite so much time running around, but it’s okay. The story should be pretty interesting, though it’s not advanced very far, since I’ve just been playing around, leveling up.

Finally beat Donkey Kong Country 3, and other news

It took a year or so, but today I’ve finally beaten (on co-op) DKC3. Only 49% completion, though. I’ll probably be playing it some more in the future, but for now, I’m satisfied.

Since last time (about three months ago… oops), I’ve also played and beaten Cave Story: normal ending, easy difficulty. I’ve started a game on normal difficulty, trying for the good ending, but I’ve not yet passed through the final cave, and it’s been a little while since I played. I’ll get back to it, some time.

Been playing some Super Hexagon, since it’s in the current Humble Bundle. Great game. Beaten Hexagon (68 seconds, or so), and I’m not far off beating Hexagoner. The great thing about this game is that if I fail, it’s my fault. The game is totally fair, and quite difficult. I strongly doubt I’ll ever beat the hardest difficulty.
