Welcome to Mana's blog

the console wish list

Hello gamespot.

i thought i would make a blog about my most wanted consoles, i dont really do top 5 or top 10 lists but thought i would give it ago. You cant add consoles to your gs wishlist so i thought i would do it here. there isnt any handhelds in here but i might do another blog for them.

number 5 : Atari 2600

Old school at its best, i dont think i have even seen a 2600 but i know what it offers and would love to pick one up. even with its age the console still looks great to me, im sure one day i will add it to my collection.

number 4 : commodore 64

like the 2600 i havent actually seen the c64, there seems to be alot on ebay at a fair price and i have bid on a couple but never won, im sure its just a matter of time before i pick one up

number 3 : sega cd

I own both the mk1 and mk2 mega drives so it wouldnt matter which version of the mega cd i picked up. its not something im in a major hurry to buy but would like one eventually.

number 2 : sega master system

i made sure to pick out the mk2 console as they are newer than the original so they will have a longer life and they look much better , im hoping to add one to my collection eventually. i remember playing this as a kid and loved it just never had my own.

number 1 : sega dreamcast

oh how i want this console i think its great, im sure i could spend alot of money on its games. this will almost definitly be the next console i buy so some game recommendations would be good so many people have told me how bad it is but i have watched quite a few gameplay vids and i played it abit when it first came out, i think it will be a good buy.

Kingdom Hearts Review

Hello gamespot.

I finished kingdom hearts yesterday and tbh wasnt all that impressed, now dont get me wrong its not a bad game and was good enough to make me want to play KH2 but i dont think its as good as what i've heard, i scored it at a 7.5 and think thats a fair score, if you get the time to read it then thats much appreciated.

I have now started valkyrie profile 2 and so far its been great, alot different to what i was expecting but really good so far, glad i saved it till last

my shadow of the colossus problem still hasnt been sorted out because i cant get an address to send it too. i sent the guy a msg through ebay and he didnt reply so i sent him another and got a reply on my email from a different email address to what i had previously recieved with a house address to send it too but i didnt get a msg on my ebay ? confused ? i dont really know what to do about that at the moment, any advice would be much appreciated.

shadow of the colossus : bad update

Im so angry right now, this game was exspensive, everyone says how good the game is and i agree it is great so i spent more than i normally would. i have been playing the game for about five hours give or take, i think im on the 12 colossus and it keeps crashing and then reseting itself. its not like i can take the game back because it was of ebay.

To carry on playing this excellent game i will have to again overpay for a game that i already have. For obvious reasons i dont want to do this. played God of war great game no problems, played Ico great game no problems, played shadow of the colossus great game and it does this !!!!! i really cant believe it,

At least i have the box to look at because that more than makes up for it

First impressions part 3

hello

Today i finished ICO, i thought that was a great game, cant say i have really played anything like it before. it has my recommendation anyway. I have made a review so anyone that reads it, you have my thanks

i made first impressions 1 and 2 i thought i should do 3 shadow of the colossus seems great so far and well worth the money i payed for it, i think im hooked i cant think of another game like it, it just seems so good. the graphics are beautiful and the music is great, i think it might even make it to one of my favourite game lists if it stays this good

for any requesters that i havent reply'd to, im trying my best but have so many to do and dont like letting people down, i might ask a couple of designer friends if they could help out.

thanks for all the comments on the last blog about the new banner. much appreciated

thanks.

first impressions part 2

hello gamespot

i finished God of War this weekend so have now started ico, i have played about 4 hours so far and it keeps getting better. I wasnt blown away by it at the start but im really enjoying it now and cant seem to put it down. so far, so good

God of War was great, much enjoyed. i have a review up for it so if you get the time to read it that would be much appreciated, i also reviewed assassins creed as i finished that the other day, so if you get the time

another profile change, i dont know who she is or what she is from, i just had to make a banner with it because it looked so good there is a header to match aswel.

thanks for reading my short update , i will keep you upto date with ico in my next blog

first impressions

Hello gamespot

First impressions : God of war.

i played about five or six hours so far and this game seems like the real deal, im really enjoying it, i had a big smile on my face when i turned it on because it was that good, it takes alot for a game to do that. the combat in it is great, it reminds me of warrior within only better, my only complaint is i hate respawning, you kill whats there there and then another seven come out of the ground gggrrrrr

First impressions : Kingdom hearts.

kingdom hearts seems good from what iv seen, i only played an hour or so just to check it worked and it looked quite good, im looking forward to playing it some more but wont be playing this or valkyrie before i finish god of war, ico or shadow of the colossus.

First impressions : Valkyrie profile 2.

WOW !!! i just watched the opening cut scene to (again) check it was working, this game looks amazing, its been the number one game on my wish list for about six months and its nice that it looks as good as i was hoping.

haven't tested any of the others yet, god of war has been keeping me occupied i did finish assassins creed before gow, i thought that was an awesome game. i can see what people mean by its repetitiveness but i still really enjoyed it, a review should be up in a couple of days.

also i have about seven banners, a couple of headers and a few sigs to make so if you are waiting on something i will try and get it done soon but i have alot to get through so it might take some time.

thanks
