The Gaming Diary: Chapter 2

[The Metamorphosing Leon]

Why not finish it the crappy way and go back to it down the road and give it another shot?

More often than not if i shelf a game it gets stuck there for a LONG LONG time.... like forever sometimes. Unless i sell it first.

Yeah I'll probably do that. It is indeed very hard to go back to a half finished game. Plus I don't have anything else right now that is screaming out to me to play it so, like, whatever!

It's honestly more fun the crappy way. The differences in the ending are obnoxious, but you can just watch that on youtube.

Dude that honestly makes me feel a lot better. Thank you.

Finished Scene It Mega Movie.

Gripshift - Won my 10 reverse tag races. And got one of the other DLC achievements. 1 left and a decent amount of single player stuff to do still.

Gunpowder - got a title update. Started chapter 5 for that one. DLC still hasn't been patched in and was apparently pulled from the market place since people were still buying it and getting nothing for it. lulz.

Monsters Love Candy - still throwing online matches. This is taking ages.

Monster Burner - some of these stages are pretty challenging now.

Jeremy McGraths Offroad - Started and completed everything except drive 1k miles. I think i have about 8 more hours of letting it drive for itself. If i really wanted to i could sit down and do it in 3ish hours of actively playing but i would rather just go the slow route that doesn't have me wasting time doing it myself.

did some more Final Fantasy XIII-2, i'm up to the start of episode 3 part 2. i had taken a break for about 3 weeks and watched my friend start playing XIII last weekend. feels like i'm starting to enjoy it more and the story is starting to get a little less confusing.

Remember Me - Started the game and played through chapter 1. It's a decent rental but the combat may be off-putting for some.

Can you elaborate on that a little? This game looked interesting to me.

It would make a better movie than a game. The story is interesting and the ability to alter memories at key moments in the game is great, but the combat is sloppy and the levels are very linear. Think Tomb Raider/Uncharted like platforming with an an arrow telling you "hey jump over here". The combat controls don't respond well and so far I haven't found a lock on button. It's like trying to pull off Devil May Cry combos off in Fighting Force. It is worth a rent but it doesn't make a strong case for a purchase.

This review falls in line with how I feel about the game and will give you a better idea :

007 Legends (Wii U) - Just screwing around online until the inlaws show up.

[GrayGhost81]

@Addicted: Thank you. I was pretty sure that would be a gamefly ten dollar special for me if anything. Now I'm certain.

Finished Jeremy McGraths Offroad.
Finished Gunpowder Chapter 5. Still waiting for the paid DLC to be rereleased and live enabled.

A little more Monster Burner and Monsters Love Candy.

Probably going to give Gripshift a little more time. I think i am getting close to 3 more achievements in that one for getting gold times, all coins and "hidden" pickups on 50 levels.

What's with Two Worlds II using 2 voice actors for the main character too?

I always hate it when a voice actor is changed in sequels, and it looks like that's exactly what happens with Pirates of the Flying Fortress. But this is just outright bizarre. They got the new guy to do all the story dialogue but still use the other guy for everything outside of this. Talk about ruining the immersion as you character goes back and forth between both of these voices.

Dishonored. Sincere thanks to Izret and Leon for steering me back into this game. Now I can finish it and trade it out rather than putting it back on the shelf 

On a more positive note I'm playing a browser based multiplayer rpg/text adventure called Conclave.

I can't stop playing - and spending money on - Defender of Texel on my stupid phone. Someone stop me!

Or, better yet, someone download the game, play the first couple of incredibly short stages and use my friend code so I get awesome stuff for free.

Which system are you playing it on?
And have you done the DLC also :-P

[GrayGhost81]

Playing on PS3 and I'm probably not going for the DLC.
