Rock Band 2 isn’t really going to be a primary game for me, so I’m also back to playing Giants: Citizen Kabuto. I had to reinstall it and didn’t save the old save games (there’s some registry dependency that makes keeping them difficult), but it didn’t take too long to get back to where I was.

After that there was still a variety of other MECC missions to go, including collecting 20 pieces of meat (shades of WoW…) for some cranky old Smartie, sneaking into a reaper base by disguising ourselves as bushes in order to rescue his wife (if the Reapers catch you moving around, they often run up and go “hrh?”, but remain confused), and taking out some strategic targets with heavy weaponry in order to break into a prison. And now I’m apparently off to Torture Tower to rescue this Timmy guy.

So far what makes Giants different is a somewhat offbeat sense of humour, and fairly large, wide-open environments. And the three different types of main characters, but I haven’t gotten to the others yet.
