Okay, as if I’m not distracted enough by my five million ongoing projects that I’m constantly working on simultaneously, I just found out that “LEGO™ Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy” is being released on September 12th!! I’m soooo excited. Although I’ve recently been replaying “Beyond Good and Evil” which is a great game, I have to say that my love for playing LEGO™ Star Wars is tough to match. The demo is available for download but I’m going to wait to play the real thing.
Of course, if I’m lucky enough to get the “Lost: Season Two” dvds which will be released on Sept. 5th it’s going to tough to decide what to do with my free time. Wouldn’t that be a nice problem. . .
[...] My wonderful husband surprised me with “LEGO™ Star Wars: The Original Trilogy” for our Gamecube. I’ve been anticipating this game for a while now so it was pretty exciting to unwrap it. We’ve just begun to work our way through but this game is just as fun as the first LEGO™ Star Wars game. Sure, the cuteness factor makes the play very appealing but although it has been rated as appropriate for all ages, the game is still challenging even to adults. The problem-solving aspect can be pretty tough. I have become partial to being Chewbacca as we make our way through the game. Besides being able to hop very high and being a crack shot with his blaster, Chewie will also rip the LEGO™ arms off of adversaries. It sounds violent but when you see a little LEGO™ wookie jump on the chest of an Imperial Stormtrooper and pull his plastic arms off, it’s more much more on the side of amusing than shocking. They are toys after all. Having recently received this game as well as the DVDs for season two of “Lost” from Randy, I now have big holes on my Christmas wish list. I’m sure it won’t be too hard to come up with something new. [...]
