I feel guilty for neglecting my other titles...I'm not quite sure what to do about this. I've purchased a few games lately that I was very excited to play at the moment that I purchased them, titles such as: Pandora's Tower, Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity, Defiance, Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward. The only trouble is, I've barely played any of them! All I have been playing lately is the new ARAM mode on the League of Legends Public Beta Environment and I've been trying to be more active on the League of Legends forums as well. ... however, the new ARAM on the LoL PBE is fantastically epic.I'm most likely going to FRAPS a game or two soon, just for fun and to show my friends the updates on the PBE. I would be playing more PSO 2, except that it currently is not compatible with FRAPS; that, and I have to do my quest for my second class (Hunter going into the option to be a Fighter) and it seems like a lot more effort than I am currently willing to put into it. So, the League of Legends PBE has attracted all of my attention lately. Not only does it have the new champion, Lissandra, and the updated models for Trundle and Sejuani, but the ARAM matchmaking is a very satisfying experience, and can have games of varying time frames, though usually they are relatively short which means more games in a shorter period of time. The average game that I have played lately has been 20-30 minutes, as the PBE has unlocked all champions for all players, with a 20% IP boost enabled as well. It's still in Beta for a reason.This has caused some interesting glitches for me, however. The most noticeable one was my getting Morgana four games in a row; this was an unusually odd occurrence, for though my PBE account has quite a few champions unlocked (at least 30) I have yet to received a champion so many times in such a short period when I have my regular champions available. Now that all champions have been made available to me, I receive only a small selection of this availability with regularity. The strangest part is that every player on the PBE has all of the champions marked as playable/available, so it isn't as though Morgana is the only champion that I do not share in common with the other 9 players in the game. The one positive thing that has come of this, however, is that I have once and for all (until a new skin comes out) decided which Morgana skin is my favorite; Sinful Succulence Morgana. Note: The extra champions are currently disabled on the PBE. Links:

The show is finally here!The second Defiance episode is airing today, at this moment. It is truly an amazing show, I'm writing this during commercials. The second episode isn't disappointing, it really quite excellent. I had to take a break from the game due to my exam week unfortunately coinciding with the launch week for the game, but there is no such complication this week, aside from my social life getting in the way (how did I happen to get one this week, of all weeks?). If you haven't had a chance to check out either the game or the show yet, you absolutely should. The pilot was an hour and a half when it aired on Showcase, and was absolutely phenomenal. It's currently available to stream from the Defiance website Links:

Even the best developers create new content that has some glitches in it, and this game in particular is a relatively new concept in the world of consoles.
I'm personally giving the game about a month or so to work out the connection issues, and we'll see how I feel about it from there. Although to be honest, since there aren't any subscription fees, I'll probably keep playing and just change games every time it disconnects me. Tonight's a perfect example of that; I got disconnected from the servers while working on a Hellbug event, so I went to go play League of Legends and won both of my games. All in all, a solid night, as I gained two levels in Defiance prior to getting disconnected. |
