The NEW Game Journal

[GrimReality]

I managed to get about 3 hours worth of Mass Effect 3 in. I'm up to when you get to the Citadel. It totally killed me to have to create a new character(ME2 file corrupted), but at least I know in my head what went on. It's not like playing an ME game for the first time.
Then again, it's been a while since I've played an ME game, so the controls took a minute to get used to. It just feels so good to be back in this world. The graphics, feel, music, everything.

Gotta finish Skyward Sword before I go any further, though. I'm after the second dragon song in that. I hope it ends quick.

I'm in Episode 3 of Alan Wake. Interesting playing this right after Deadly Premonition and seeing a semi-similar game being done straight instead of weird like DP.

Got bored of rage, same fight same fight etc, do this that or whatever. Have a list of new games i'm bored with. Started infinite undiscovery, feels right to be playing a Jrpg after DA. Nothing brilliant so far but the story has been ok

I must have put like 12 hours into ME3 already, I'm not even kidding. I love it so far - there's characters I didn't even expect to see, even from the books. A couple of interesting surprises but it's been fun. Combat is much improved, it always felt slow to me in the first two games.

Got my ass kicked in the school though.

I picked up ME3 and Street FighterxTekken today and I'm loving both of 'em:))

Bushido Blade 2 is probably the least enjoyable Square game I've ever played :|

[Darklight]

The connect function in infinite undiscovery is interesting enough, once you've worked out the penguin parade for the wings and fangs door. The exagerated personalities are a bit off putting, though i've had fun so far

trying to S rank levels in Re5 is hard when your partner shoots you in the ass w/ grenade rounds

Finally on vacation!

My goal? Finish AT3 (which I never really had time to dedicate to).
Might be hard... I've been on the system settings screen for 20+ minutes listening to the music instead of starting the game ^_^;;
Seeing how the game got trashed, I'm going in with low expectations. Might make me enjoy it more.

10 hours into ME3 and it's still wowing me. It's so nice to have cut-scenes and conversations that don't put me to sleep. Looking at you 'Amalur". I thing I might play through the first 2 ME games when I finish 3.  The first one at least..

Briefly played the Saturn version of Space Hulk 2. Seems quite nice.

Also spent some time with Gunstar Heroes and Samurai Shodown. Can't tell if SS is hard or if I just suck at it. Also the SNES version looks awful.

67 hours into Skyward Sword. Finally finished getting the final song, and now have to visit that one dude/thing. I'm pretty damn sure I'm close to the end. I know there's tons of other stuff I could do, but I am SO done with this game. Tired of waggling, too.
Not to mention ME3 staring at me.

Figured I shouldn't double post.
I was upset to hear that I had to do another one of those annoying Silent Realm trials. Fuck the Silent Realm. Just another tick on the list of complaints against this game. And yet I still like it, and am still enjoying it, for the most part. It's just these certain aspects that bring it down.

My son has been playing Golden Sun: Dark Dawn on the DS. He likes it a lot, but keeps getting stuck. Apparently, it has a lot of puzzles, and he's constantly frustrated by it. I like the look of the game, though. The summons remind me of FF8, though. Awesome, but too long. At least you can skip them.

Are you going to finish Skyward Sword?  I just can't bring myself to do it.  I unhooked my Wii so I can put my PS3 back up to play Tales.  I'll take bland animu anyday of the week over waggling.  I beat Golden Sun DS and while I didn't hate it, it was pretty generic.  There are probably other games more worth your time unless you really get a ton of mileage out of handheld games.

Of course I'm going to finish it. I still like the game. It's just nowhere near perfect. Plus, I'm pretty darn close to the end, anyway.

I started ME2 so I wouldn't be lost in ME3 but, after 12 hours I don't have much of a desire to continue.
The RPG elements just aren't there for me.

Finished Amalur, at about 39 hours in I finished the main quest and 10-12 side quests.

About 24 hours into Demons Souls, liking it more than most games I played this year.

Those are the only 3 games I have at the moment.

Suggestions are welcome. Pretty sure DA:Origins is next on the list.
