The Gaming Diary: Chapter 2

[GrayGhost81]

Still playing Tales of Vesperia. The sheer size of this game is starting to get to me. I'm almost 25 hours in and barely a third of the way through the game. I'm going to stick with it but I may throw something else in the mix so I don't get burned out. Perhaps a shorter Vita or DS game.

Gone Home on Steam. This game is far from the game it's advertised to be.

Is it different in a good way, or not? Just curious.

Myself, I'm putting my recently acquired PS3 through the paces with Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction. I'm presently backtracking through levels I've already cleared, methodically searching for the hidden and hard-to-reach bonus stuff I'd missed in the first go-'round.

Started playing Breath of Fire II on SNES.  I might try for a playthrough but I'm already bothered by some small things.  Bow is a dog instead of a wolf and the colors on the battle screen are annoying.

Blasting through Fable III PC... until i need to start gathering collectables that is.

I never played that one, any good?

It is good. Just not what many would expect it to be. All I can say without spoiling it. I really did enjoy it.

It is fable good.
Story is decent. Character interactions are sims like
There is some decent humor tossed in.

But it is still a relatively short, linear, small RPG.

I finished Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon. Really fantastic, and perfectly captures the 80's. Rock on!

Finished Assassins Creed 2 earlier this week. Still have a couple achievements (360) to get and items to find but not sure that I'll try and get 100%. The only way I would bother with finding all the feathers is to use a map from the internet. Hunting for them on my own would probably double the amount of time I've put in so far.

It was a fun game, my first experience with the series. The storyline makes me want to play the first one and the 3rd one, as it begins in the middle of a story and ends on a cliffhanger. I have the first one on PC so that shouldn't be a problem.

That was the second game I've finished this year after the NES game, Blue Marlin.


In other news, we have a new PC! I have a choice of hundreds of PC games to install. Some of them are actually good 

Been working on making a hacked custom region in SimCity 4 today. It's not working. I've done it before but it's only been a few hours since I started using Win 8 and I'm getting close to exhaustion besides....uhg.

Looking at installing Dark Star One, or falling asleep

First AC is terrible. 3rd isn;t very good. Try Brotherhood and Revelations next for the whole trilogy of Ezio.
Also check out Lineage on Youtube

After lollygagging I finished the main story of Fable III saved all the citizens didn't get knocked down etc.

Achievement mop up starts tomorrow. Random side quests and collectables. I have intentionally walked by collectables as I was doing the story in the hopes that using a guide for almost all of them means I don't get turned around and lost.

Saints Row: The Third.  I'm at that part (when playing open world games) where I am really looking around, admiring the scenery and design.  Plus I love that there is a reference to the Montreal Screwjob in the game.

Picked up DLC Quest for 75 cents last week. Wasn't bad, but I really can't see paying any more than 75 cents for it, it's short and not stellar.
