PGR2 - No More Bronze (at all)

Tuesday, September 13th, 2005

Last night I was going to play Fable but the PGR2 disc jumped into the Xbox instead. I converted my last Bronze medal to Silver, so now I have:

Silver Gold Platinum
Kudos World Series 133 31 8
Arcade Racing 50 7 3
Street Race (20) (0) (0)
Timed Run (20) (0) (0)
Cone Challenge (10) (7) (3)
Overall 79% 16% 5%

I’m really into the cone challenges at the moment which increasingly remind me of Scramble[1] (or Acornsoft’s Rocket Raid if like me you played on a BBC) - in both scramble and the cone challenges you find yourself memorising a route and then gradually tweaking it until you attain perfection. It could almost be a form of meditation if it wasn’t for the loud music I have playing at the same time.

[1] Without the shooting, that would be another game entirely.

Kudos World Series - No More Bronze

Thursday, September 8th, 2005

Finally got rid of my last bronze medals in the Kudos World Series, unfortunately I only have about 15 gold and platinum medals. I’d better make a start on upgrading all those silvers.

Project Gotham Racing 2 (PGR2)

Tuesday, September 6th, 2005

My main gaming obsession at the moment is Project Gotham Racing 2. Not that I’m brilliant at it, just okay (600,000 Kudos as of yesterday - in Kudos World Series I have 25 bronze medals, 100+ silver, some gold and a handful of platinum), but it is fun which sure beats some of the other games I’ve played recently. I bought the X-Box for Halo and KotOR and both of them are just sitting there - somehow they just don’t seem like fun to me.
