Lego City Undercover: The Chase Begins (3DS): COMPLETED!

Posted on Written by

Story done!

It is substantially smaller than the Wii U version, as I completed the story (without much in the way of wandering round) with just over 7 hours on the clock. There’s clearly a lot left to do, but I’m expecting around 25 hours to 100% it.

It’s a great game. It really is. The only reason it isn’t fantastic is that the Wii U version exists. Still, lots of fun and I’m going for the 100%. Just a shame the ending didn’t tie in with the “flashbacked” ending in the Wii U game. Bit odd that.

Guitar Hero – Rock ON !!

Posted on Written by

The Wii U is backwards compatible with Wii games & thus I have spent approx £100 purchasing 35 wii games. One of the purchases came with Guitar Hero World Tour & the guitar.

I have never played any of the music games like Guitar Hero or Rock Band. My first experience was at last years UGVM meet & I was really bad.

A chance to try again & after a few attempts on easy mode we were hitting 90%+ accuracy.

Linkin Park - What I've Done or Michael Jackson - Beat It seem to be the songs of choice, with Mohnster having the highest score on Linkin Park at the moment with 38K.

The next step now is to try and source a second guitar & the drum set along with a few of the other guitar hero games to enjoy.

Quite a few years late but the music genre has reached the Khan household, ROCK ON !!

UGVM Disc Drivin Season 4 – Results

Posted on Written by


Long overdue then for Season 4.

There are 4 leagues (Platinum, Gold, Silver & Bronze) of 4 players each with the winning player getting promoted & the worst getting demoted to a lower league.

Points are awarded 4 points for 1st down to 1 point for last.

The 4 chosen tracks are Jump Start, Prepare to Qualify, Beachcomber & Under a Big W.

The first player in the league will start the first track Jump Start & invite player 2, 3 & 4 in order.

Then Player 2 will start the next race on Prepare to Qualify & invite player 3, 4 & then 1.

Player 3 will start Beachcomber & invite Player 4, 1 & 2 in that order.

Lastly Player 4 will start Under a Big W & invite in order Player 1, 2 & 3.

Player 1 will wait to play his turn until all 4 races have started & are awaiting his/her turn to play. This will ensure when you come to play your turn you will have all 4 races waiting for you to play.

I made a mistake on moving fluffmyster up from the Gold to Platinum League when in fact it should have been Becs, sorry 2 will go down from Platinum this season one of which will be fluffmyster & two come up from Gold one of which will be Becs

Any questions please ask me before starting your race

Nintendo Land: Donkey Kong (many) Crash(es) Course

Posted on Written by

The last parts of the Donkey Kong game are pretty evil.  I've now got the first eight areas down pat, although I frequently lose one or two lives in area 7 (in the upper-left of the screen below - you can see the remnants of a crash there) where you have to use the left trigger to raise and lower platforms.


But then I get to area 9, in the bottom-right.


You can see I've lost a couple of lives there already.  Here you have to tap the right trigger to launch your cart up the ramps.  You need to have the gamepad tilted just right to avoid flipping over.  And you need to press the trigger very quickly, and let go very quickly, to avoid catching your character as the platform comes back down.

It took me ages, but finally ...


I then lost all six lives on the last platform before the end of area 10.  I've not beaten that yet.

Lego City Undercover – SPOILERS !!

Posted on Written by

THIS IS GAME OF THE YEAR material so much fun diving down a mine shaft, riding a t-rex, trains, boats, skateboards, nintendo easter eggs, red brick power-ups, the humour, TRAINS (I said that already), horses, space centre, mini games and so much more.  I so can’t wait to unlock planes.

I’m on chapter 10 at the moment & loving every minute.

This game is reason why you need to buy a Wii U !!
