My friend Sean from High School was big into collecting movies. I had a brief period of doing that too, but now I don't even own any movies. I don't even have Netfix anymore. I guess I just burned out on it and would rather play a game. I do try and hit the theaters once a month though.
I really love the writing in Portal. The dialog is hilarious. I just wish I could finish it sometime.
I got lost in Fallout 3 almost as soon as I left the Vault. I have to try that game again though.
I've had some trouble with the Elder Scrolls games for just the reason you state. The world is just too darn huge. I get lost and spend a lot of time traveling from place to place. Or I find myself in a place with higher level monsters and get killed. I got eaten by fish in Morrowind, devoured by ghosts in Oblivion and I got very close to being chewed on by a troll in Skyrim. Will I survive to the end of this game? I want to, but I somehow doubt it.
Kat on Axe of the Blood God was talking about having to prepare for each fight. Like you needed an oil to fight the Spectre (I think that's what it was called) otherwise you couldn't damage it and other things like that for different monsters.
Darn that. I mean, drat!
Ages is darn good. I just don't know what I did wrong there. I'll replay the game from the beginning sometime and see if I catch the thing I missed. I can't let the Maku tree down. It wants to marry me.
I played a little bit of Z and then tonight I'm trying Super Mario Bros Ed. . SMBE is a little simpler but basically the same. I think I'll stay with SMBE for a while before tackling Z.
The Vanilla Fudge cover has a solarized photo of what may be a nude woman, it's hard to tell with that effect on it.
I finally figured out a table solution for it so I can hook it up next to my laptop. Then, I hope, the software issue won't become an issue. I also hope my microphone jack on my laptop is a stereo one, otherwise I'll have to get an adapter. I've been told mic jacks are usually in stereo on laptops though.
I really love the design used from the Etrian Odessy games. The UI is very easy to use and attractive to boot.
That is the problem. You never realize how complex the control scheme is in these games until you leave it for a week and try and jump right back in. It took me a while to figure out how to access health potions quickly in Skyrim after being away for two weeks and I still haven't figured out how to change weapons quickly, or go from torches to weapons.
