What Are You Playing? (Spring 2011)

Still plinking away at FF4 Complete.
The end-game of the After Years basically consists of fighting a shit-ton of bosses from various 2D FF games. It's pretty ridiculous.

Playing through Bioshock 2 mostly. It's not a bad game, but it's really, really uninspired. You could fill a thimble with the legit new stuff here. I like the fact there are more than two characters in this world who aren't splicer crazy, unlike the first game, but there's too much combat and absolutely no knew plasmids to fight with. New weapons sure, but most are clunky and only used when you're out of machine gun ammo. Feels like a really long expansion pack.

There's a really cool sequence at the end I won't spoil, but yeah, not much new stuff going on and it lacks the impressive mindfuck the first one threw at you.

Bioshock 2 is awesome. The beginning ain't so hot but it gets very good quickly IMO. AaronChance, when you upgrade the plasmids you open up new abilities unlike the first. The combat is legitimately much better than the original.

I started playing Minerva's Den last night and it's very good. I need some low-stress games to unwind after studying every day until 9pm.

Games again. Got a new PC, loaded it up with Monday Night Combat, Mirror's Edge, Street Fighter IV, Super Meat Boy, and both Bionic Commandos. Oh man, crazy.

Monday Night Combat I'd just started messing around with months back, I dig it. Anybody wants to get on that or SFIV, lemme know.

You got a new PC and loaded it up with old ass 360 games?

You got a problem with that, sister?

I hear Prey is a cool game.

It feels good that I don't even know what that is.

First game I played on my new PC was Brink.

I kinda write that off and consider Witcher 2 to be the breaking in game.
