How are you liking Skyward sword ? I love the game :) Just got past the fire temple !


message 32: by Chris (new)

Chris Galford (galfordc) I am reading Lionheart by Sharon Kay Penman. Wonderful, so far.


message 33: by Judith (new)

Judith Starkston | 31 comments My latest read was intriguing.Death Comes To Pemberley Instead of contemporary England, P.D. James has set her latest book at Pemberley estate in 1803, six years after Miss Elizabeth Bennet has married Darcy. That is, P.D. James takes the prose of Jane Austen as her setting. James plus Austen is a fascinating combination, although there are some difficulties in the marriage. Here's my review.

The Fire Temple was a pain (literally) wasn't it?

I finished that section some time last week. Without saying anything that might constitute a spoiler, I am about to finish the Second Really Big Task of the Second Phase of the gameplay. I'm one boss away from the Next Really Cool Thing that Happens to your Equipment.

I am struggling with the bosses, following my usual Zelda pattern ... make it to the boss room, die quickly. Go up against boss three more times, learning a little more about the movement and battle characteristics each time. Spend another three to five battles in which I am JUST ABOUT TO WIN AND IT KILLS ME. Finally defeat boss and realize that there are more of them waiting out there for me.

Sigh.

At least I'm remembering to eat, go to the bathroom, and pay bills.

And I've got Batman: Arkham City waiting to be played. And God of War III. But Zelda is just so compelling!!

I haven't played much the last few weeks due to the Wii having a gpu problem, hopefully it will get fixed soon and I can again play it . Good luck , have you played any other zelda games? my fav was Ocarina of Time and I also liked Link to the past.:)

Good luck with your progress and hope those bosses get easier :D


message 45: by Lisa (last edited Jan 23, 2012 07:04AM) (new)

Lisa | 617 comments Still reading Divergent, which I am enjoying (but in terms of dystopian literature I, so far, prefer The Hunger Games and Katniss).

Also delving into Head First HTML with CSS & XHTML for school.

The bosses never get easier!!

I'm at a particularly cranky one right now, and I'm probably just a sword-strike or two from victory ... but I'm taking a break (so I don't throw the Wiimote through the BFTV!), which means I got some reading done ... finished The Demolished Man by Alfred Bester. Really good science fiction mystery.

Next up is Michael J. Sullivan's Percepliquis, the final book of his Riyria Revelations series. He's a goodreads author. I was introduced to him through this site!
