  • Finished inFAMOUS 2 and really enjoyed it

    I played the “good” side of inFamous 2 and finished it last night. I really enjoyed it and even think the ending was appropriate. The fighting was great and the game looks good and is fun. I played the good side because I’m not a big fan of hurting innocents, even if they are just…

  • On mudcrabs in Amalur

    As a side note on the last post regarding Kingdoms of Amalur, I am happy to report that mudcrabs in Amalur are not hostile. Unlike the annoying mudcrabs in Elder Scrolls games, like Skyrim and Oblivion, the mudcrabs don’t attack you and aren’t edible. I presume they were included as sort of a poke at…

  • Enjoying Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning

    When last I wrote, I had just finished inFamous. Since then, I finished Dungeon Siege 3 and enjoyed it. If you can get it for a good price, I recommend it, but don’t pick the gun girl unless you want a big challenge. A friend loaned me inFamous 2, but it didn’t grab me as…

  • Enjoyed inFamous, trying to finish Dungeon Siege 3

    At the end of last week, I finished inFamous and really enjoyed it. If you have a PS3 and haven’t played inFamous, pick up a used copy for cheap or get it on PSN (maybe$20? I forget). The powers are great and it is tremendous fun to blow stuff up! Even the story line is…

  • Busy enjoying inFamous

    I haven’t posted in ages, mostly because I haven’t had too much to post about. I have been playing inFamous on PS3 for the most part, and enjoying it a lot. It’s a pretty fun game with a fair story, lots of action and cool abilities to blow stuff up, and good controls. The controls…

  • My current games: Started Final Fantasy XIII-2, Stopped DDO, Playing STO

    My gaming life has been fairly hectic recently because of work and real-life issues (don’t you hate it when those get in the way?). So this will be a brief update on my meager gaming recently. At the urging of a friend, I started playing Dungeons and Dragons Online. It’s a fairly neat game, and…

  • Kinda liked the Mass Effect 3 ending!

    Even though I haven’t played any Mass Effect 3 multiplayer, nor the iPad game (though I did buy it when it was a dollar a week or so ago), I finished the Mass Effect 3 story line and didn’t mind any of the 3 endings I tried. There are some spoilers below, so if you…

  • Great iPad games on sale! Civ Rev and Pirates

    I just noticed that a couple of very fun iPad games are on sale for $1 so check them out in the iTunes store! I don’t know how long the sale lasts, so check that the price hasn’t gone back up. First is Civ Rev, an iPad version of Civilization Revolution that was released for…

  • My ship in Star Trek Online

    My Constitution class cruiser in Star Trek Online is very conventional, but still looks pretty good. The NX designation, rather than the usual NCC, is because I am a lifetime subscriber or played the beta or some such thing. The ship’s name, Hermosa Beach, is because I used to live in Hermosa Beach and still…

  • Coming to terms with how my Mass Effect 3 game will end

    I’m well along in the final mission sequence of Mass Effect 3 and should be able to wrap up the game in the next few days. I hear that there are hours of cutscenes left, so perhaps they will exceed the remaining game play. Yesterday, I read ahead in the IGN walkthrough and read about…
