My Game Log - May 2010

Time for the final part of the update in which I am discussing all the games I have been playing or at least have tried to play.

I have some serious issues with focusing/concentrating for long periods of time on a video game. I am unaware what caused this problem. It started out around March, after beating Mass Effect 2 and FF XIII. After that I have been having a hard time playing either consoles/handhelds.

Only a few games have kept my attention longer than an hour.... I feel like I am betraying the gamer inside me...

maybe youve just played to much. i mean just don't play until u REALLY get the urge to play it.

[Aerodynamisch]

I see, that might be a good idea....

Yeah i know the feeling, that sort of gaming overdose where you want to play, you want to finish games but it almost becomes a chore. For me, some mindless shooters or beat'em ups are usually a good remedy. Also if you're getting into the castlevania series, as a big castlevania fan may i suggest you try the ds ones to, dawn of sorrow and especially order of ecclesia, which breaks away from the traditional castle roaming with outdoor levels and such. They're really great games in that series.

[Aerodynamisch]

Yea, definitely becomes a chore....

I have definitely been enjoying SSF4 but nothing really to be called progressing with a game.

I will try to play Super Castlevania IV first, than maybe Symphony of the Night.... Then it will probably DS or maybe even Rondo of Blood?

Man that sucks with the whole concentration thing. I try to play and complete 1 game at a time so I don't stop playin one game just because its not as good as another, but that's just me.

[Aerodynamisch]

Yea, I try the same thing, at least for a specific console. But I started way too many, it is probably around 10+ already ...

[Aerodynamisch]

Indeed true, handheld gaming is easier to stop and save your progress for short periods of time. Still gotta finish Shin Megami Tensei Strange Journey for the DS. My last played DS game last month.

[TravisTuchdown]

i can relate to your persona problem i haven't touched that game in month because of that. i would rather not play the game but i know if i play p4 first i won't ever touch p3 again.

[ConsoleHandheldGamer]

Those are the same reasons I haven't played Persona 3 FES. I also have a problem with not being able to focus on games at the moment. I think it's why I like handheld gaming so much, easier to pick up and put down.

[Aerodynamisch]

Never thought of the fact that I am getting older. Although I have been playing SSF4 for 4 hours straight at times.

Ah the great FF XIII, that was probably the last game that I played for well over 8 hours a day, that is a bit over the top though, but I was really hooked to it.

Hopefully a long session of God of War I can get be back on track...
