Elite Blog Agents
Hello readers!
First I wanted to sent a shot out to all my friends who run blogs, particularly those that that have been around longer than I have, and to acknowledge that yes, it is difficult to maintain a blog. I already knew that from trying to update a couple of websites (Odyssey anyone?) but thought it would all somehow be easier when you didn't have to type all the fancy HTML.
Enough about the past, let's talk about the future. That is, Future Sight is the most recent expansion for a card game that I recently started playing again after taking a couple of years break. This also marks my first foray into eBay, as I've been playing enough to warrant buying a few lots of cards from auctions on eBay. So far it's been a fantastic success, and I've been able to grab some stuff that locally I would have hard a hard time finding (and if I did, and even harder time paying for). I'll post on that in more depth later, but for this post I'll move onto another game that I've been intrigued with as of late (and one form which this post shamelessly borrows it's title.
Elite Beat Agents is a fantastic game for the Nintendo DS. You take charge of a group of people style as government agents, who's mission it is to travel the globe solving people's problems through dance. You use the stylus (pen) to tap circles on the touch screen as the agents dance in the background. The game contains a total of 19 songs, and is the first rhythm game I know of created for a hand held platform. I've had it for a week now and while it starts off easy, the songs get really challenging on the higher difficulty levels.
While some people would say this game isn't for everyone, in my opinion, it isn't worth owning a DS if you don't have (or at least borrow) Elite Beat Agents.
What ya'll think of that?
