Default Yoda's Blog: June 1st. Too many games!!

So if you read my previous blog, you know that I started up Final Fantasy 7 for the first time ever with intentions of moving on to Chrono Cross next. I get the feeling that I'm almost at the end of the first disc of FF7. I have just over 13 gameplay hours as noted by my saved game file, so maybe that's near the end of the first disc?

So far, I like the game very much. I don't like that the battle doesn't pause while you're trying to find an item that you want to use. Is there a way to change that? I'm getting used to the blocky characters. I complained about it last weekend but you get used to it pretty quickly.

However, I'm getting into the situation again of having too many games to play. I bought Crysis at Circuit City last weekend because it was only $20 and I always wanted to play that. Then today, I bought Mass Effect (PC) at Best Buy because it was $40 and I've been looking forward to that game on PC for quite some time now.

And believe it or not, I've started up Oblivion again. I've already played through it 4 times. This time I'm going pure Ranger-type character specializing only in Herbs, daggers, and Archery. So far, it's damn fun.

So I'm at a point again where I have so many games in progress that I just end up not knowing what to play and just watching TV instead.

This week, I'm going to try and put blinders on and only play FF7 until I beat that game. After that, my games will have to fight for my attention.

So you recently bought Crysis AND Mass Effect but the first thing you're gonna play is FF7?! Nice!

I just got to Assault in Crysis last night. Pretty awesome. It's definitely a level to look forward to.

I know the feeling of having too many games. Sometimes it's hard to gauge what I feel like playing sometimes.

Crysis was a sweet game, but once I got used to the controls in Half-Life 2, I couldn't go back to Crysis'.

How are the controls different at all?
