The Gaming Diary: Chapter 2

Dungeons & Dragons arcade

[Silent Scythe]

24 hours into Project X Zone.
It's starting to realyl wear off on me...

I really enjoyed what I played on it but I am terrible at strategy so I sucked and stopped playing about 10-15 hours in.

What problems are you having?

I'm just getting bored cause every fight is the same so far.

I'll be playing Tales of Vesperia for a while. I really like this game. I even like it a lot more than Symphonia. There are two major things that kind of are bugging me though. First, the music overall is very bland and some of it just sucks. Secondly, when you level up it doesn't tell you. Yeah, isn't that weird? For a grinder such as myself this is very off-putting. I mean even in Symphonia it just said "Level Up!" over the character's head but that was better than nothing. I need something like Viola in Eternal Sonata "Time for an upgrade!" full animation, sound clips, the works. That's part of what I'm grinding for! To not have that kind of feedback in this kind of game is a real head-scratcher.

Ghostscape (WP7) - Time for my speed run, I am hoping to get through those slider puzzles faster this time.

Remember to uninstall and reinstall your game before you do the run - there's a puzzle that'll break on a repeated playthrough.

Finished Joy Ride Turbo a couple days ago.

Achievement for buying all cars glitched on my 2x but i was able to get it to work on my back up save with some trial and error.

Dark Void (G4W) - Since the old lady took her phone with her to work...I can't play Ghostscape. I am going to start this game now.

Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater (PS2) - SNAKE!!!!!!!

[JSoup]

Got an invite to the HearthStone: Heroes of Warcraft beta. Not a bad game, pretty fun so far, but it's hard. Not sure if it's hard because it's hard or if it's hard because I'm bad at TCG/CCGs.

Max Payne (PS2) - I hate the Ambulance level...

[The Metamorphosing Leon]

Still dicking around in ACIII and got to the inverted castle in SoTN.

Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater (PS2) - SNAKE!!!!!!!

Was just thinking on replaying that.

Lately I've been finding myself judging building design and architecture by how easy it would be to do things like, scale the walls, climb up onto the roof and leap from building to building.

In other news, I've been playing Assassins Creed II.

The 360 gave this to us for "free" because we have Gold. First AC game I've played. It's really easy for the most part but I'm having fun. The last week or so is the most I've actually played video games all year. I would guess I'm more than half way through the game, maybe 3/4.

Done any wall-humping yet? Or is that in AC III? I forget...

Anyhoo: I took my recently acquired PS3 on a spin by playing what is, hands-down, the most intense, hardcore, and badass gaming experience you can have! That's right, I'm kickin' it to Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction! And it's totally-- well, it's unsurprisingly reminiscent of every prior Ratchet & Clank title, only with prettier visuals. Despite being more-of-the-same, its familiarity is rather comforting.
