Whitewater Wipeout: triple 360
Whitewater Wipeout was one of the first games available on the Playdate, being released in the first week of Season 1, and I think it's still my favourite on the system. It has the vibes of California Games, but with a clear end point, refined scoring system, and responsive and intuitive controls. The front of the board goes where the crank is pointing.

The Index Finger
Last night in Indianapolis, a man stood up and pointed at A'ja Wilson. It was late in Game 2 of a first-round playoff series at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, and Indiana was protecting a lead it would keep, 99-89....

Pilotwings: smoother in 60Hz
This is possibly the first time I've found the difference between 50Hz and 60Hz to have a significant impact on a game.  When I tried to play Pilotwings previously, I found that I was constantly fighting with the controls and didn't enjoy it.  Amusingly, I forecast at the time that I'd go back to the game "in a couple of years".

Super Metroid: nearly dead
I've been waiting for this to be on special offer since I got my Wii U.  The first Metroid game I played was Fusion on the GBA, which pre-dated this blog.  Metroid Zero Mission was completed in 2005, after an intensive playing time.  I've since wanted more of the 2D games, but there wasn't an easy way to get either the second game or Super Metroid - I have a feeling that the latter may have been on the Wii Virtual Console but I never thought…

Halo Reach: flying around in space
I am, apparently, a little way through the game, and I restarted halfway through chapter 3.  The difference in gameplay from the first Halo is marked, with increased reliance on team members and communication, and a move to large scale set pieces rather than small-scale battles in corridors from one waypoint to the next.  The world feels a lot more empty and open, and you have a sense of partaking in a massive war rather than an…
