The Gaming Diary: Chapter 2

I was slightly wrong about the leveling up in Tales of Vesperia. It does tell you when you leveled up if you hit A after a battle. I was hitting B, which is cancel, it just takes you out of the battle results. I should have been hitting A all along. That shows you what items you got, what skills you learned, and when you leveled up. Cool.

I was going to play Fallout 3 on PC, but it keeps crashing at New Game....and this is why I don't play PC games....going to bed instead.

Are you playing on a laptop with Intel integrated graphics?  I remember hearing about this crash when the game first came out.  I think there is a small file you dl and place in your Fallout install folder.  Let me know if you need help troubleshooting.

Yes I am on a laptop. Any help would be much appreciated. I am a bit of a newb when it comes to PC gaming.

More Mount and Blade: Fire and Sword. Started a new game because in my last one my rebel kingdom was composed of the Khanate forces, which I can't freaking STAND. Restarted and working my way peacefully up through the ranks of the Cossack faction. We're beset on all three sides by enemy nations, and our position is a tenuous one indeed! I've been running around helping our guys win battles and hold sieges where I can, but even so we've lost a few major cities that I won't be able to take back on my own for awhile, until I can build up enough renown and leadership points to field a big enough army.

XCOM: Enemy Unknown.  I can't remember why I stopped playing this.  I put a few hours in yesterday.

Finished a co-op run on Dead Space 3 and Dragon's Crown on Normal with the Wizard.

Now perhaps some Killer is Dead with a side of Ginga Force during my workout.

I stopped playing because the game gave me anxiety.  I know that part of the point is to feel tense and like you aren't in control but I had to take a break.  Awesome game.

Haha totally, freaking game gets me wired. My last playthrough went like astoundingly well, but even so it was nerve wracking.

I made a MAJOR mistake with my second satellite placement and I didn't take into account how long the turnaround is when you build certain things.  I think I'll have to start over.

Got Terraria for the iPhone. It's okay. Moving around is kind of wonky, and like with Minecraft I feel like I need to play with a wiki in hand.
