Time Well Spent

I've been splitting my time between a few things of late. Prototype, BlazBlue and Eve Online. Also re-reading 1984 and doing some graphic stuff now and again, which I might post up sometime.

Eve Online is one of those games that I've played before, and the kind of game I love the idea of, but really don't have the patients or will power to play it far enough to reap the benefits. That and, well like most MMOs I always get bored at some point and move on. Also it's a massive time waster, worse than most MMOs because you are always looking at ship fittings and skills to train, I swear I spend more time doing that than playing at times.

I've decided, after reacting a certain point in Protoype, and gaining a power that seemingly kicks arse, that this game is much better than Infamous. The havoc you can wreak, kicking helicopters out of the sky and slicing people in half, what more do you need. Pff, lightning.

As for BlazBlue, I spent a few hours checking out the various characters and working my way through Arcade Mode, which has a lovely cheap, special spamming boss. God I hate that shit. I ended up playing Ragna as he seemed to fit my style the best. The game plays very similar to Guilty Gear, so if you've played any in the series you know the style. I've not touched Story mode so far, but I'll dive into it sometime soon.
