Where We Are Headed

Wow, I have a lot of updates to make to this. Where to start... Well, Sims 2 vanished off my computer completely, so the story about Brad freezing below never happened, and this is the only place that it exists. I've beaten.... 1 game since the beginning of the year? Wow, I need to get going on that. I'm working my way through Final Fantasy 2 right now, like I mentioned before. Let's recap my Final Fantasy Quest right now, shall we?

  • Final Fantasy I: Complete!
  • Time: 20:57
  • Level: 64
  • Characters: Cecil (Knight), Kain (Knight), Rosa (White Wizard), Rydia (Black Wizard)

  • Final Fantasy II: In Progress.
  • Time: 6:39
  • Level: N/A
  • Characters: Cecil, Rosa, Edge, Josef

Not really sure what else to put. I had originally planned to name everyone after Final Fantasy IV characters throughout my run but as of Final Fantasy II, they all seem to have their own characters and stories, so I think I'll leave the names alone after II.

Oh, picked up Hotel Dusk a few weeks back. It is so very very good! It's not so much a game as it is an interactive film noir novel. I'm liking it a lot right now, but I'm stuck, so I think I might finally break down and look up where to go next online.

Oh, downloaded the Supreme Commander Demo a few weeks back as well. It is shaping up to be a really really good game. If the optimize the actual game better for dual core, I'll be in RTS heaven! It comes out today and I'm still debating whether or not to go out and buy it or download it. I'm on vacation next week so more games will not be frowned upon.

Me and my wife have gotten into Guild Wars finally. We just yesterday went post-searing, and plan to work our way through them all. We don't have Nightfall as of yet, but if we can make it through Factions without losing interest, it will be worth the purchase.

My interest in Egypt is severely waning unfortunately. I'm keeping my character around because my wife finds him useful as a mule, but after this telling, I don't think I'll be back. Not unless I win the lottery and have enough free time to play, because that game is like having a job.

Oh, am working on the next journal update for Gars, so expect that before the end of the month hopefully. A LOT has happened since then and how far our party is now, so I'll be shooting them out a lot faster, I hope I hope I hope!

I will try to update the side bars today. Oh, check out the site I've been working on: www.twilightknights.ca There isn't much there now, but there will be soon, just have to figure out how a few things work.

Ha! It wasn't a month this time!

Another period of time later and here I am again. Let's see. Dirge of Cerebus just came out so I'll be picking that up in the upcoming months. Also picked up a couple of sweet games: Civilization IV: Warlords Darwinia Now, I know Warlords is only an expansion, but it adds lots of cool features to the game, such as having Great Generals which can give experience to your armies, a Great Wall that actually appears on the map, even being able to play as the barbarians. Who doesn't want to loot and plunder... You'll pay for this Captain Planet! Darwinia though, that is an amazing game! You are an observer in a virtual theme park which is populated by these little guys called Darwins. A virus invades the system and it's up to you to help them take back their territory but protect them from harm while you do. You can't directly control the Darwinians, but you can nudge them in the right direction. I'll be playing through for a third time soon, not just because I li...

Part 2 of the World's Largest Dungeon and Cookies

Image
So first thing's first. Apparently my blog uses cookies and I'm supposed to have an automatic notice about them to let you know if you're from Europe. I don't know how to make that work right now so I'll just let you know here that I have never changed any cookie gathering code or anything like that. I just post about game stuff and really don't care about cookie information and will never look at it. Okay, second session progress. It was well over a month ago and I barely remembered what happened. It was a lot of twists and turns through endless corridors. There was an ogre who was all frontin' at first but after getting thumped he backed down. Below is approximately the path the party took. I don't remember any traps but they were sure to have been funny.

My Favourite Style

So, I really like the Art Deco style. Don't know why, but I do. Games that use this however are even better. Two that come to mind are Bioshock and LA Noire . The former came out at the end of summer, 2007. The latter has yet to come out, but should be by end of 2009, and I hope it doesn't become vaporware . I remember when I first played Bioshock . I had just gotten my 360 and only had the couple of games that came with it. Marvel Ultimate Alliance didn't interest me at all, despite my love of Marvel, and Forza Motorsport 2 was a racing game that would have eventually required skills to master I wasn't willing to develop. I started going through all the demos and arcade games available and downloaded everything that even looked remotely interesting. I came across Bioshock and thought I'd give it a try. Now I don't watch horror movies, and I've only played a couple horror games, and FPS's aren't really my thing, but this was different! The style...
