Hello again. I haven't been too active in the last 2 weeks. I'm now into the last week of the school year (of the campus where I work) and when that's over, I won't have to work nights and I can game and sleep like everyone else. In theory.
And these work nights have impeded my gaming activity so I've had to find smaller games to fufill that 2-3-minute session for breaks and I save the big platform/console activity for the weekends. Up until a few nights ago I was playing the Vita version of Plants Vs Zombies. It's been a very enjoyable port and not so much of a sludge compared to the iOS version. I'm about 6-7 trophies from unlocking Platinum but I've reached a point where I'm sick of the game. I've bought all of the store items, filled up my Zen Gardens, played through the adventure mode twice, unlocked most of the mini-games.....I reall feel as though I've gone as far as I can. That being said, I'm interested in what the sequel will bring, whenever it arrives.
On the console homefront, I've put aside Batman Arkham City (before you scream at me, I was only mere minutes into the story mode) because Gamefly sent in Far Cry 3.
So far, it's been a blast and these open-world/sandbox games always hook me. It looks terrific, the sound design is great and I'm fine with the combat and the exploration (driving kinda sucks, I've never been too good in the first person perspective). The most satisfying element here for me is how you can solve problems or finish missions by using more than one approach. When a game like Assassin's Creed III didn't implement that, it killed my interest in the game. Also, watching tigers or bears kill off your enemies is hilarious, until you have to kill them yourself.
Some posts back, I whined about leaving one of my iPods out in the sun for too long. At the very most I could hope that all that was damaged was the battery. It turns out my hopes were correct; the device will boot up normally when connected to the wall charger but as soon as I unplug it, it goes dead. Amazon has a good deal on a replacement battery for the model so I'm going to order one or two come payday.
Other than that, not much else. I saw Iron Man 3 and Oblivion last week and enjoyed both of them (Oblivion is doomed to be overlooked for whatever stupid reason and it deserves better than that) and I plan to see Star Trek Into Darkness sometime this afternoon.
Live long and prosper, everyone!
