Now Playing - Star Wars Jedi Knight II - Jedi Outcast

Mon, 20 Nov 2006 00:00:00 -0600

I have been playing this game for a while now. Finished about 10 levels I think. This is one of those rare games where transition from FPS to TPS has been made so seemlessly. I have absolutely no idea why this isn’t as popular as Half Life and Quake.

I have played Half Life only recently, and while I am not saying that Half Life isn’t as good as it’s made out to be (it’s as good and better), I cannot imagine why Jedi Knight didn’t go on to win awards, and why only a little over 10,000 people on GameSpot own the game.

Well, I had see what the fuss was all about, so I finally started playing Half Life. I had this game for over 5 years now, and I played a little bit back then and gave up….I can’t remember why. Anyway, I started this game a while ago, and I managed to finish quite a bit till now.

I can imagine why this game became so popular back in 1999. The graphics were really good for its time, after all it’s the Quake 2 engine we are talking about! The game play is not repetitive, and the level design is great.

Now Playing - Caesar 3

Started playing Caesar 3 a couple days ago. Theory exams are over and one more lab exam to go, so I found some time, and I am looking to finish the game.

Currently in Valentia level, my ranking is Praetor. I have finished the War mission and try to finish the peace mission for the 4th time.

I have employed a different strategy to complete this mission this time around. Earlier, I used to make one single connected unit and build housing. Now, I am making several individual blocks and making them self sufficient with food, pottery and furniture.

Now Playing - GTA 3

I intend to write about the games that I am currently playing. I want to record my progress, and my thoughts through out the games that I play.

Currently playing GTA 3. I finished ‘Espresso-2-go’ missions today. Two more missions to go till the end of the game. I think I played this gamer for about 2 months, not too sure, but it’s certainly addictive.

This is one of those few games which have a very high replay value. Some of the missions are quite frustrating, at least that’s what I felt, but over all, this happens to be a great game.
