College Algebra, English 122, Mass Media / Popular Culture (Jou), Some Computer Class requirement for transfer credits to a 4 year school.
I have a couple games for the PS3 (Little Big Planet, Fallout 3) that I haven't finished yet, and likely won't see the end of until the summer. I am still subscribed to WoW and play about 2-3 hours a week. I am also playing in a LoN (legends of Norrath TCG) tournament next weekend.
How are the graphics on English 122? And I've heard College Algebra gets repititive :(Quote:

I didn't like the chameleons or the zombie things though. Zombie things rush you, and only you, and come in a flood that you can't reload fast enough to kill without getting hit. Chameleons I don't think are even present in the game world until they spawn, invisible, right in front of you. Suckage. Everything else was good.
P.S. I liked Algebra, but stay away from Trigonometry, the interface is confusing and the loading times are slow.
Meh, Trig wasn't so bad once you saw how it launches the basic platform for Calculus. It is a regressive type of system that the next-gen apps always make the previous ones look easy (and are easy, by that point) and useful.
I found myself having actual FUN with Calculus. Sad.
At least it's not Ninja Gaiden - so hard it will kill your friends!
I thought Calculus I was fun, although II started to push it. :p Trig though was one of the few subjects I actually had to put effort into. Like, less problem solving, and more endless glut of information.
I started (attempting) to play GTA4 (PC version) over the weekend, it seems plagued with stability issues... However still seems quite fun (not that I'm far into it yet).
I chickened out before trying Resistance 2 online (I have issues, shut up) and started playing Resident Evil 4 instead, sort of in preparation for 5. It's pretty good, but the controls are hard to get used to. The longer sequences are really starting to annoy me though, I don't like being forced to replay a 30+ minute scene because I got ganked near the end. I'm not even sure if it's the length of the repeated gameplay that bothers me, or of it is just because it is so intense that you have to repeat a very specific plan in order to not die, and I can't stand the repetition.
Which reminds me how annoying the health bar is; it is very misleading! At least Ghost and Goblins is honest about how easy you are going to die, I've got a ton of life bars, but everything either kills me in one hit or two.
I'm also playing Professor Layton. Actually I am almost done with it. I like the characters and the setting/style, but I have a few issues with it and didn't like it as much as everyone else seemed to.
I tried the RE:5 demo. Amazingly dissapointed. RE:4 was one of the best games *ever* made, RE:5 just feels like Gears of War: African Murder Town.
I'm playing "Not Enough" currently... and it sucks.
Funny you should mention that, I just downloaded it for phone. It was fun to explain to my son that: "This game was really something some 20+ years ago!"Quote:

Other than that, I'm playing WoW full-bore, just got my Death Knight to level 80 last night, so my 2-box adventures of madness (tm) (r) can begin!
My friends and I would “sneak” into a local bar and play Ghosts and Goblins – we eventually got so good that we could make it through the whole game without dying. I tried it recently on MAME and I sucked as badly as if I’d never played it before! Few games piss me off as much as that one.
still have 5-10 unopened games on desk.
Installed black&white2, played 10 mins, thats it.
Installed Titan Quest, will play with wife in future.
Installed Age of Mythology, will delete it - thing has no real 3D.
Playing WAR dilligently, nearing 20 with my 6th or 7th char.
I'm currently alternating between Midnight Club: Los Angeles (360), which is a nicer time killer, though not nearly as fun as Burnout Paradise (can't wait for the new DLCs!) and LEGO Indiana Jones (360), which doesn't really motivate me much. Seems like the series is running out of steam.
I've been taking a bit of a break from console games and when I do that I tend to occasionally just play some easy pick up and play stuff every few days. Samurai Warriors 2 and Civilization Revolutions has been great for that since they're mostly self contained levels/games. Civ Rev is excellent, never has something being dumbed down been so good a thing. It's amazing regularly finishing civ games. I think they went over-the-top in how often the other civs declare war on you, but as the emphasis is on winning the game it makes sense.
I haven't had access to the Wii lately, so I started F.E.A.R. up. I was thinking of picking this game up a long time ago, and even made a poll on it, but ended up going with Half Life 2 instead (which was the right decision).
Well the sequel is coming out soon, so I figured I would pick up the original. It doesn't creep me out as much as it used to, but the AI and gunplay is really good.
I've also (finally) started Star Ocean 1 for the PSP on a whim. I like it a lot so far. It's obviously an older game, but I am impressed that SquareEnix once again has not spared the polish. You can even view anime cutscenes from an option on the main menu, which I really wish more games would do (*cough*persona*cough*).
They reactivated my SWG account so I've been messing around with that.
Somewhere in there is a game I think I'd like, but for a game that's been out so long it has such a rough unfinished feel to it.
I picked up Flower off of PSN today. It's gorgeous, and probably the first time a game has made me care the slightest bit about sixaxis controls.
It's very simple. The gametype has existed before, although I cannot think of any examples. You control wind and fly through a trail of flowers. The more you cause to bloom, the more colorful the level gets. Some will open up paths to new flowers, or sprout new ones out of the ground. If you are the type to chase butterflies you might find yourself doing loops and spins in the air instead of following the objectives.
If you are concerned about your masculinity you might want to keep gears of war on hand to inject the much needed testosterone. But then again, if you are that concerned with your masculinity shouldn't you be out somewhere shooting a gun or buying a ridiculous car?
:D
I'm playing Nintendogs, so it's too late anyway :grinno:Quote:

I won't kick chickens either. :(
I guess I'll start Gears 1 next, and I've also been dabbling in End War.
I reactivated Eve again and I keep wanting to log back into WoW.
