Luigi’s Mansion 2 (3DS)

Posted on Written by

It’s slow going through the Mansions. Not because I don’t like the game – quite the opposite. More the way I’m playing. Since the game is split into missions, each about 20-30 minutes long, I’ve only been doing one or two at a time. Which would still be quite quick, if it wasn’t for the fact that every time I turn my 3DS on, oh look – there’s Animal Crossing.

“Just 5 minutes” on Animal Crossing turns into “oh, no time for Luigi now”, more often than not, so the green plumber is getting a slow burn.

At the moment, I’ve just done the second mission in the Clock Factory mansion. Which isn’t really a mansion, what with being a factory. I also gave the Thrill Tower a go online, which was pretty good fun too.

Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney: Dual Destinies Demo: style and substance

I said I might not buy this.  That may have been a bit of a rash thing to say, given that it came after playing through the Miles Edgeworth game which was a significant departure from the series - and given that I've just played through the demo of the next proper Ace Attorney game which looks absolutely magnificent.

Looking at past posts, I seem to have a love-hate relationship with the series.  I was pretty nonplussed to start with, but have completed all the games and found that Apollo Justice was a great character.  He seems to be back in the new game as well, though the main playable character is Phoenix.

I can't wait.
