The NEW Game Journal

[Dice]

I've been playing some AssCreed 2! Started it up on Sunday and it confirms everything that I heard about it: that it improves on everything in AssCreed 1. Assassinations are still super fun, and perhaps are even more fun now. But I think the part that keeps me going is the "The Truth" collecting mini-game, because those segments are really fun and come off like ARGs. Morse code wtf?!

I loved the "Truth" files, but they freaked me out a bit too.  Hearing Subject 16 grunt, struggle, and suffer starts to get pretty creepy.  The black/red/white motif doesn't help, along with the "hidden agenda" throughout Earth's history.  But I liked the puzzles.  I thought Ass1 was a bit more artistic in its presentation, but yeah, Ass2 is wonderful otherwse. :D

I got Dark Cloud 2.  Enough said. :D

I liked that game a lot.  I need to put that on my replay list...

Going full Renegade is pretty fun, even though I hate making choices that I, personally, would never make.

That's why I don't really like the renegade/paragon or light/dark option.  I always end up with half and half =P

So I got mad at Strange Journey, so I need a week off from that game. Started up Devil Survivor 2, named my character Cock Munch. I laugh every time the other characters say his name.

I liked that game a lot.  I need to put that on my replay list...

I already beat it myself.  I missed it a helluva lot and had to have it again.  I really want to grab out the accordion and learn how to play the Palm Brinks theme.

Banshees are kinda making me dislike Mass Effect 3

Oh my god I just saw one of the funniest game gliches in a long ass time in UC2. My guy was walking over a log in the borneo swamp and while sliding down the other side he got stuck in the air and the game thought he was falling. Drake started flailing his arms like he was falling off a cliff and I left it there for 10s while giggling. I nudged him off the log and he died.

Mount & Blade: Warband -

Did the early game quests and I can't remember shit on account of not sleeping last night, however the last batch of stuff I did involved leading a caravan to some city in the Nord kingdom, getting a job at that city to haul ale somewhere, hauling ale there, meeting a widow who lost her land and can join my party, getting a a quest from the same tavern to go rid a town of bandits, doing so, then going back to track down some quest giver who was two busy wandering the country side to actually be in one place to give me my 300 fucking coppers.

Uncharted 2 is fun.

That is all.

Finished Mass Effect 3 last night, good fun, not sure I get the hatred of the ending, I thought it was OK, not great but OK. Played @3 hours of Dragon Age II today, so far I really like it, pretty much did a bunch of side quests so I can get used to the systems but I like the story telling a lot.

Had original Xb in beach house over the weekend, GTA San Andreas looks great on the old xb through Component. Played through Castle of Shikigami 2 and some Jet Set Radio future. The sound track for JSRF is excellent, catchy 90's jpop mixed with Latch bros.

Alundra=puzzle/platforming madness......think I might be done with this one.....

Alundra=puzzle/platforming madness......think I might be done with this one.....

I remember playing that when it came out and really having a hard time with the puzzles.  I wonder if they are as hard as I remember them?  I remember the second ice palace puzzle being a beast.

[Maxximum]

I remember the original Alundra being tough as nails in comparison to other games of its genre. Never managed to beat it, might go back to it some day. I also recall it was fairly dark

because of the sheer amount of characters that die, despite your efforts to save them

which was rather unexpected considering how "anime" and colourful the game looks on the surface.

Replaying Final Fantasy 12... really bored right now!
