Day 144: Duodecim initial thoughts

The only gaming I did today was when I was waiting today.  Waiting for the newspapers to show up.  Waiting for someone to come to the office so I could get my check.  Just waiting.  And the game I played while I was doing all this waiting was Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy.  This entry will about my thoughts on what I've played so far.

I like how there's a World Map.  I don't like having to play as Lightning.  I like the Assist thing they added to the game.  I don't like how Kain is a stupid jerk face and attacked Bartz.  I like how I don't get punished for going after every treasure chest.

And that's pretty much it.  I am stuck at the battle against Kain.  He's so tough, and Lightning is so weak.  Why couldn't I play as someone else instead of stupid Lightning.  Just because she's the mascot of the franchise right now, I shouldn't be forced to play as her in every game.

In other news, I am seriously considering pre-ordering Lightning Returns.  And the HD version of Final Fantasy X/X-2.  Yes, I have already have the PS2 versions of X and X-2, but it would still be nice to have this new version.  I want to finally experience the Dark Aeons and Final Mission and stuff the North American audience didn't get to see.  And getting Lightning Returns just makes sense because I have the first two games.  Why not complete the collection?

I have a wireless mouse now for my computer.  I will be getting used to it in preparation for the Osu! tournament.  And it will take a lot of getting used to.  It's smaller than my old mouse.  But I have a few weeks yet before the tournament, so there's plenty of time.  And if it doesn't work out, I always have my other mouse.

Well, that's all for this entry.  So, for the coming day, enjoy the games you play!

Day 116: My Eyes Hurt.

The only gaming I did today was checking to see if my copy of Kingdom Hearts Re: Coded works.  It arrived in the mail today.  When I got home from work, my eyes felt like they wanted to melt, so I slept a long time.  I even answered the phone today and don't remember what I said or who or what the person on the other end was or said.  I was just so tired when I got home.

Anyway, I am done buying video games.  At least for a while.  If all goes well, I will only have to purchase the two newest Final Fantasy games (Lightning Returns and XV) when they are released.  I really hope I win a copy of X/X-2 HD.  It will save me $40.

But until then, I still have so many games I need to play.  Tomorrow should be filled with all sorts of gaming done.  I wish I could say that I have a game I can one shot and play through tomorrow, but I don't think I do.  If I did, I would be more than happy to do it just to get it checked off the list.  Oh well.  I will think of something.

Anyway, the poll for the Talent Competition ends at 3:30pm EDST tomorrow (Friday).  That's give you all about 13 hours to sign up as a member of EnixOrigin forums, and vote for me.  I really hope you vote for me!

Well, that's all from me for now.  So, for the coming day, enjoy the games you play!
