I had to compensate for the fact that most companies releases their products later than the planned date... ;)

Even with 8Mb broadband, this isn't downloading nearly as fast as I need it to. GOGOGOGOGO!

Just finished The Machine. Wonderful. Thank you so much Niklas.

It's very much an improvement on the original game and the sound design is very nice indeed, although the enemies feel more like a concession to complaints about the first game than things which have been woven into the game design.I think the idea of "stories" is a very nice one, though. There's too much commonality in your abilities between games for my taste (it kinda' suffers from Metroid/Castlevania ennui in that respect only it's rubbed in your face that much more by being in a single package) but the game presents a far more compelling experience this time around.
