Assassins Creed 2.
I am really hating the Visitazione's Secret tomb right now. I have 91% of the game done. Pretty much, all that's left is this last tomb, and finding 55 feathers or so. But this tomb is killing me. I hate the timed stuff. And jumps and stuff, I suck at. And it seems, the sideways jump, I suck the most at. If I do manage to get the sideways jump, I'm never quite far enough to the right, so I dive into the water, rather than getting to the next point. Uggg. So frustrating! I wish you could decrease difficulty. Arrrgh.

Beautiful plumage, the Norwegian assassin.
Bit of a tendency to pine for the fjords, I hear.
Y'all are no help!
OK, I've managed to get all but the last pressure hang position done. But then fall off the post or whatever before the last swing. No point to climb out, and have to start all over again. Uggg. Sometimes I hate when I have completionist tendencies.
BSG
Adama's orders are:
Nuke the basestar!
The roll may be modified by an SP. Everyone, please pass or play.
BSG
Everyone passes on interrupts. Nuke launched!
Die roll: 6. Basestar destroyed!
The Admiral further demonstrates his martial prowess by offering to beat the crap out of any crew member who has it coming. Adama's crisis card is:
In The Ring

Possible interrupts: IC, SR, reckless. Everyone, please pass or play.
BSG (Apollo)
Nicely done, Dad! You punch anyone you want. Uh, not the mirror, okay?
Assassins Creed 2 update. After spending the better part of 2 hours trying to get that last dang pressure point triggered, I gave up. Frustration so high, I couldn't make the first jump in the sequence anymore. Kept landing in the water. Spent the day finding all the feathers and glyphs. The only thing left for me to do in the game is open that last tomb, and return the seal to the basement of the villa, and get the old armour. That's for another day. Stupid sideways jump. :: grumble::
BSG (Cally)
ooh fireworks!
pass on interrupts. I can't help at all.
