Picked up Dragon's Crown for Vita; despite rumors to the contrary, you do have to finish the game single player before you unlock local or online multiplayer. Local is unlocked automatically for the PS3, but not the Vita version. Fuck that, I have no desire to play through the whole game alone just so I can play with my friends. Guess I'll just play through SMT:IV again when I'm not at home instead of DC.

Started playing FarCry 3. How the hell do I unlock my other weapon slots? Running around with 1 gun and running out of ammo sucks.

I fired up Dark Souls again. Was able to persist until I got past the point where my old save was, and life is good. Halberd is a pretty good weapon.

Activate radio towers. There's also Hunter missions where you can get weapons from the guys you kill and look at the shop, too. |

I was unable to get very far into this. I played the fuck out of Demon's Souls, and they're just too similar for me. |

I'm basically done with Lego City. Unfortunately for me, my first 100% in a Lego game is denied me due to a bug where the Pizza Boy token is missing. In the wake of this tragedy, I'm sort of all over the place. I'm dabbling in ToME and spent some time gathering Steam Cards. I've been poking at Sleeping Dogs DLC. I did some multiplayer Pikmin 3 with the boy. Most of the time is playing Animal Mortgage: New Leaf, and some trying to figure out where all of the kids with 3DSes hang out so I can get some Streetpasses. I'm about to get back into Path of Exile more, I think. It's difficult to be sure. I'm not reading anything absorbing, just slides on Cloud and technical design docs for  . I'm listening mostly to Com Truise for the past few weeks. |

I heard that in the last day or two they pushed Streetpass hubs to places like Starbucks, McDonalds and Best Buys. Supposedly these places will capture SP info and allow users to trade info that way. I can't find any news on it though. |

I can't find any news on it though. I think the deal is that Nintendo Zones now store the streetpass info of the last person to pass by. Gives that streetpass to you when you walk by, and takes your streetpass to give it to the next person, etc. |

They discontinued the chicken pot pie. Played Path of Exile last night and learned that my friend had made all of his characters in the Anarchy league, thereby guaranteeing I won't be able to give him any loot that I've stored up on my standard characters. |

It's fairly sad. I work in downtown Seattle, four blocks from the market. One would think that my 3DS would pick up at least a few a day with all the tourists, shoppers and workers. However, I'm lucky to get one a week. |

However, I'm lucky to get one a week. Range is very short. Like less than 20 feet. There are three of us in the office I work in that bring in our 3DSes and I don't pick up the 2nd one cause he's on the other side of the floor unless I walk over there with my 3DS. |

Playing Path of Exile again; normal league. I hit late Act 3 on Merciless and it is clear I need substantial gear upgrades to progress; ugh.

Call of Duty black ops II - somewhere in the middle. I prefer to play multiplayer than campaign so that's why it takes so long.

I'm massively enjoying the full version of Papers, Please! It delivers on the promise of the demo/preview and so much more. So far I've collected one good and three bad endings, and have processed a pretty crazy number of virtual entry documents...

I'll second that. When I got my first good ending, my first response was to start over and try something else this time. My BIIF verdict for Papers, Please! would be  |

Just started Spec Ops: The Line. Yah.  This shit got bad pretty fast. I'm sure it's just going to get worse. Also watching TI3. That's taken up most of my available free time. |

Been playing a lot of Etrian Odyssey IV, it's really good. I bought it when it came out but just started it last week.
Also played some Wonderful 101 demo. It took about 20 minutes for my brain to acclimate to it. At first it's impossible to tell wtf is happening or hard to keep track of your character, but after a while it starts to click. Also when you form the hand if you swipe into the fire your attacks launch Super Mario Brothers style bouncing fireballs.

I just want my phone line saga to be over so I can get an Internet connection again and download Baldurs Gate 1&2 to play. I'm sick of no games!

Working As Intended. I need to get back into that game. It's really good, but not quite as sticky as Demon Souls for some reason. |

Sen's Fortress is basically "ha ha, fuck you!" when you get there the first time and don't read guides or watch videos, since you're getting flattened by boulders and destroyed in ambushes constantly. |

I got quite a kick out of the start of the game (and I've been wrapped up in The Walking Dead since).

*look at online spoiler*
Oh, you're not supposed to. I laughed my ass off. Lesson learned: pay attention to things.

I couldn't live in Seattle for the world. High cost of living, shitty traffic, and you get sunshine like 50 days a year. Now Bellingham, WA I'd move to in a heartbeat! |

Started up another game of Master of Magic on Friday. Probably around 300 games over the last 18 years.
I still wish it'd get a proper upgrade. None of the pretenders have come fucking close. None. I remain steadfast in my vow that it would be my pet project should I ever win a powerball.

It's definitely more expensive and the sunshine is hit or miss, but traffic isn't that bad if you learn the off routes. Plus, it's got one of the best bus systems (shootings not included) I've seen and I use it almost every day. C Line gets me downtown from West Seattle in ~25min on an average day. The biggest problem is that Seattlites are the most intelligent people I've ever been around, but have no common sense. Seriously, it's like they rolled an 18 INT but a 3 WIS. The sheer amount of people standing around, not doing anything, but in the way of whatever I'm doing is astounding. |

Messing around with Guns of Icarus Online. Haven't gotten into a game with humans yet because practicing with bots is enough to give me an idea of how much it's possible to suck at this game, but I imagine it's quite fun if you get a competent crew together.

I just got back from Seattle a couple of weeks ago for the first time in like 20 years. The city's changed a lot.
The farm-to-table food scene there is probably better than the Bay Area, and the wine's almost as good. Still probably couldn't live there though. The BA is a big enough slowdown from NYC already. And yes, Seattleites do just do some really weird shit for no apparent reason.
The homeless people are aggressive as fuck too.
As for shit I'm playing? DayZ (Obvs) Splinter Cell conviction and Firefall.

Tuned in, immediately get to watch cringey Ubisoft talking head offering her deepest sympathies to the families impacted by the Orlando shooting while flanked by a man in a giraffe suit and some sort of "horrifically garish neon costumes through the ages" exhibit or something.
