Trick Shots
Spent Saturday night playing 3 player Bankshot Billiards 2 on the 360 with a few beers. It was a lot of fun although the physics were a little wonky. Shots that should not have happened in real life tended to occur with a high frequency. This actually ended up causing much hilarity as taking potshots at a clump of balls would occasionally net 4-6 balls potted. Ultimately we had a lot of fun though, the game just needs more 3 player modes - the only mode that supported 3 players was called Cutthroat where there are 3 colours on the table and the goal is to sink the other players colours first; the last player with their colour on the table wins. I assume some of the other modes would allow 4 players (doubles), but I don’t have 4 controllers
Currently working through Oblivion again, with the intent to finish the main story this time. Last time I played I did the Thief’s Guild and the Dark Brotherhood, sunk like 20 hours into the game, and then got bored. This time I’m playing the same character (Assassin) but I’ve modded my game a bit. It is a lot more fun this time and I’m confident I should make it to the end. One of the aspects I disliked last play was that my Archery skills meant nothing (enemies required 3 - 5 arrows to go down, which meant a lot of back-peddling after I’d been spotted) - I have a few mods installed to try and correct this problem without making me too ‘godlike’, so far it seems to be working.
