Game Diary Day 2: Achievement Whoring
Yesterday I finally got through Vasoline for drums on hard in Rock Band, and even managed to five-star Green Grass and High Tides. It's neat to finally be at a place where I am comfortable with any song on the drums. For a long time I was sure I had no rhythm, but Rock Band has seemed to give me a rhythm transplant of sorts. I played a little bit this morning, just trying to get through the band world tour but every single setlist I have open is either ridiculously difficult, or ridiculously long. It's going to take much more effort to progress further.
After a bite to eat for breakfast, the lady and I went to Half Price Books to check out what treasures they may hold in the video game department, and lo! Check out this copy of Monkey Island 2 we scored! It's got big ol floppy disks and everything. This is going to make a fantastic prize for some future awesome contest of awesomeness. It's even got the original Lucasarts Newsletter, featuring a Sam and Max comic and everything! So exciting. Here are some pictures!
Today, however, is going to be spent playing Bioshock and trying to mop up the last few achievements for the game. I'll be playing through on Hard trying not to die. I haven't actually played the game since the last DLC was released, and never had a chance to check out the new plasmids and junk. Also, the lady hasn't yet had the chance to experience the awesomeness, as she tends to get a bit too freaked out hearing splicers raving up and down hallways. I don't really blame her. Now, if you'll excuse me, it's time to get cozy and freak myself out.
What say you?!
