The Gaming Diary: Chapter 3

[Disposed Hero]

Still chipping away at both Final Fantasy X HD and Project X Zone.  I like both games, but it was probably a mistake to start both of these at the same time.  I remember my play time in FF X on the PS2 ended up being 80+ hours, so we'll see if it ends up taking me that long to finish it on PS3.  I'm 25-30 hours into it now, and I don't think I'm even close to finishing the main story yet, let alone all the side content that I'll probably do.

Project X Zone is a lot of fun, but the battles tend to drag out after a while.  The game keeps giving you more and more characters to work with, which in turn also forces the game to keep throwing more and more enemies at you.  The game really isn't very difficult at all, it just takes a while to eliminate all of the enemies.  Fortunately I just started a chapter that looks like it may be a lot shorter due to there being fewer enemies on the screen, but this game has a habit of throwing more enemies at you halfway through the chapter, so we'll see.  I'm about 15 hours in and not even half way finished with the game yet, so I can see this one becoming a grind before it's all said and done.

I felt the same way. Its a little better when your characters unlock their AoE skills and can take out bigger groups of enemies at once though.

Been playing Fire Emblem Awakening and GunVolt. GunVolt is pretty fun, feels a lot like the earlier Mega Man X games.

Right now only one of my units has an AoE attack, and it really helps.  I can see the battles going a lot quicker once most/all of my units acquire an AoE skill.

I played 10 iterations of Pac-man tonight thanks to Pac-man Museum.

I'm not entirely sure how i feel about that still...

I actually didn't know about them until much later in the game. Needless to say a lot of these missions were like pulling teeth after a while.

Earned the last of my money in Kane and Lynch
