Persona, Saboteur, No More Heroes 2
I played Persona for about twenty minutes on the train, but if you would believe the clock in the game, I’ve been playing it for over 48 hours! Yeah, apparently when you just turn off the PSP without returning the title menu, it keeps the game “on,” which completely blew the hell out of my timer. I’ve gotten to a point where the team has broken up for no good reason, and I missed an entire cutscene where Philomon, a bad-ass mother who is also a beautiful butterfly, because I didn’t have my earplugs plugged in and there were no subtitles. Continue to play I will.
I also spent a few minutes on Saboteur before I got bored by being shot at my Nazis and gave up. There are just way too many Nazis, and while other blatant GTA rip-offs have somewhere you can go to get them off your tail, there is nowhere you can go to get rid of the Krauts except the country, which is the hell out of the way. I understand that stealth is more important in this game, but when just standing near a Nazi is enough of a crime to get them to sic the entire Western Front on you, it can get irritating quickly.
I played a bit more No More Heroes 2, fighting a boss or more. The game has gotten easier, something I was concerned about early on because I was running out of energy way too often. Although I am now just flailing in my room whenever I’m in combat. It works, but it can be exhausting. The minigames also make me feel weird, because I find myself spending a lot of times trying to collect money by playing games of the same visual and gameplay quality as the NES. This is 2010 man, I should be playing a game that at least looks like it’s trying to keep up with the latest graphic innovations. But then again, the game has its fair share of bland, brown rooms to trot through as well. (shrug) It’s still entertaining though, with the latest boss being pretty freaky, although he fell like a puss after I knocked him into the corner. Stupid ghost...spooking me.
