To study for a quiz in Interactive Digital Media tomorrow, I took some of the elements of my first assignment and turned them into something even more like a breakout game. There is no bouncing off the bottom anymore, you get only 3 chances, and sounds and multiple levels have been added to add spice and variety to the otherwise very simple game.

Have a ball!

Play Breakout

Been playing a lot of F-Zero GX since its release a week ago and I am totally loving this game. The environments are unbelievably huge, the courses are astonishingly gorgeous, and the game is lightning fast. Contrary to what I've read around the net, the game is easy to pick up and have fun with: I took it over to my nieces' house this weekend for a family clambake and we all had a lot of fun with it. The game's difficultly shows itself as you progress through its many layers, so unlocking everything in the game becomes a formidable task. That's ok with me, because that means I'll be coming back to it for quite some time.

Chalk up another triple AAA title for Nintendo, developed by Sega.
