The Gaming Diary: Chapter 3

[GrayGhost81]

Fired up Sonic Generations this morning because I wanted to see if it deserves the space it's taking up on the shelf.

Nope.

Not too bad and I was kind of cruising through it, then I got to the part where you have to complete challenge maps to unlock the first boss. Go to hell, ain't nobody got time for that.

I guess I need to start Gravity Rush to set up the playthrough, but that's handheld so I need to get an honest start on a good console game.

Borderlands (PS3) - Krom is a tough nut to crack, but I'm getting a little closer to killing him every time.

Altered Beast (XBLA) - My daughter doesn't like fighting the bosses, and she doesn't like flying enemies lol

[shaggy]

Not totally sold on Eternal Sonata yet.  Attacking is ok but now that I'm on attack level 2, I can see where attacking is going and I'm not going to like it.

More Hearthstone.

[GrayGhost81]

Diablo III. It's fun to play in the morning before work and relaxing after work.

Borderlands (PS3) - Finishing off a few side missions before I face off against the Rakk Hive boss.

I haven't had a lot of motivation to play games lately, mostly because work has been crazy, and I've certainly lacked the time also.  But last night I sat in front of my PC and played a couple PC shmups (primarily Hydorah), as well as a couple fan-made Mega Man games in the 8-bit style.  It felt good to play games and feel like I hadn't abandoned my hobby because I was "adulting" too much.  Hopefully in the coming weeks I can continue to dedicate more time to games.

finished Super Mario Sunshine a few days ago. between the glitches and the odd gameplay it's far from my favourite mario game. that being said it was still fun for the most part, and a good game in its own right.

I've been getting in a couple minutes a day in Dragon Mania Legends and Project Spark.

One i really enjoy the other makes me hate everything.
One i am almost done with and will likely continue to play after i finish.
The other is seemingly never ending and i want to give up and never finish out of spite.

Fuck Project Spark, Team Dakota, Microsoft Gaming Studios, Win8, Xbox One, and the 360 even though that version never came to fruition.

[GrayGhost81]

Tell us how you really feel Izret.

Still Diablo III and Gravity Rush for me. I forgot how great GR is. I must have been under stress or something the first time I played it because I remember having a lot of trouble with the combat, but so far I'm cruising through these losers.

[Izret101]

If i can pull the people together i'll play some Jack Box Party Pack 2 tonight.
ANYONE CAN PLAY. ALL IT REQUIRES IS A DEVICE WITH AN INTERNET BROWSER! Phone, tablet, PC, or any console that can connect to jackbox.tv (if memory serves 3ds could not connect)

If i cannot i will keep playing Monkey Pirates

Fuck Project Spark, Team Dakota, Microsoft Gaming Studios, Win8, Xbox One, and the 360 even though that version never came to fruition.

Didn't they release an update to make the achievements easier?

[Izret101]

Yes. The game is still a heaping pile of broken shit tho. The players/creators have managed to make some insane things despite the developers crippling them with broken updates over the last year. And with that last update making everything free and many things easier there are still major game breaking bugs. The developers never released something that looked worth playing and the general populace far outpaced them with talent, skill, creativity and knowledge.

The funny thing is the update put into effect a bunch of changes i suggested on their forums a year ago. The reworked achievements are far easier than i or anyone else suggested though.
Which almost removes the need for the useless Achievement Hunter feeds that they created in response to my "Instant Win" world destroying their feeds with a bazillion clones.

Oddly enough "Instant Game Over" levels never caught on even tho it was the exact same thing and where i got the idea lol

Borderlands (PS3) - I think I'm getting close to the end, I'm going after some Steele broad.
