The Gaming Diary: Chapter 2

More World of Tanks of course.

Started Dead Island. Seems decent. Zombies seem over powered or weapons are too weak... Not sure which yet. But it feels like any more than one at a time coming at you and you are probably gonna have a bad day.

I always wondered if they intended the racially comical nature of making the black guy the blunt weapons specialist in that game.

I've been playing SOTN for the playthrough, as well as Dead Island. Hoping to run into some friends from here in that game but for now I'm just breezing through with my magic machine gun.

Last weekend I played a lot of Persona 4 Golden. I hadn't picked it up in a long time but since there are so many great games on the Vita, I felt I needed to start pushing through it again. I put in about four hours but got stuck on a boss and decided to take a break and try something else for a while.

So I started playing Unit 13, which was free with PS+ a few months ago. It's pretty cool. Reminds me of those good Syphon Filter games on PSP but with a lot of smart modern tweaks. The only major complaint I have is that the enemy AI is terrible, but oh well. It's still very fun and very well designed as a handheld game, with missions being as short as just a few minutes.

Just beat Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze, starting Sonic Lost World on the Wii U now.

Started Hyrule Warriors tonight, putting in a solid 15 minutes of play time. I was starting to get the hang of things... and then King Dodongo shows up, straight-up mocking my complete lack of skills. Definitely need to figure out the winning strategy against that fella...

Lots and lots of Dead Island.
Some with Ghost, most with Cuda and randoms.

Cleared over half the story today!

I picked up Europa Universalis IV and all of its DLC because of its steep sale price.

I have completed the Reconquista as Castile and now I'm looking to put the pesky Aragonese in their place.

Tried to play more Dead Island with Barracuda but my internet keeps dropping so i gave up.
Which means i can't play more World of Tanks either.
Which also means i can't play the crappy "AoE" game on my PC.

Hopefully the disconnects are intermittent enough that i can watch netflix.
So far they haven't been more than 1-2 minutes each.

PlayStation Home (PS3) - Been tinkering with this due to the servers closing in March.

[Izret101]

My internet seems to have fixed itself after about 24 hours of complete catastrophe.

Finished Dead Island story and got through all the Bloodbath Arena DLC with Barracuda.

Still have a decent amount of mop up.

Playing through the Dark Souls II DLC Sunken King and Old Iron King. I do believe the bosses in these two areas are harder than most of the bosses in the whole game.

Try to forget about trying to beat any of these bosses by yourself.

[Barracuda]

I've been playing a ton of Dead Island with Izret. I might actually pick up all the achievements in this game.

[Izret101]

You're welcome

Just don't make it a habit. Achievement hunting is rarely fun.

Played a little Civ V hot seat last night with my father in law.  I really love that game.  Hot Seat is great.  It's a fantastic way to teach someone in the same room how to play while letting them play.  I just want to play more Civ V.  Seriously.  Anybody wants to learn, I'm your dude.

Little bits of the new Smash Bros lately. Went to a friends house last night and we played some X-Men Mutant Apocalypse, Knights of the Round, Super Buster Bros, Brawl Brothers, Cyborg Justice and ended the night with some Links on the Sega CD for some reason :/
