    2008 - Week 2 (Jan 8th - Jan 14th)

    Spent a couple of evenings delving into my Christmas games. I've only played the prologue of "Mass Effect Andromeda", so can't really say too much on that, although the combat seemed improved from 3, so that's awesome. The auto-cover system seems a bit fiddly though, hope it doesn't become annoying. Looking forward to playing more, but I was distracted by my current favourite, "South Park: The Fractured But Whole". I'm about 5hrs in and having a great time. The humour is classic South Park and it's making me want to watch the show, so I guess they succeeded there. Combat is pretty much on par with the original. Haven't done much story, I've just been plundering houses for loot and strengthening my character. I like the constant dripfeed of rewards for tasks. Keeps you in that "5 more minutes" mindset.

    Aside from those two, I've been continuing to play Forge of Empires whenever I have a couple of minutes to kill (on the bog). It's fairly meh, but it occupies my brain. I also played my first backlog game last night, "Princess Remedy in a World of Hurt". It's a free-to-play Steam game that plays and looks like an early NES adventure/shooter hybrid. I only got about 15 minutes with it, but I've yet to see where the "overwhelmingly positive" reviews come from. It's only meant to be about an hour long, so I'll see it through.

    Had a couple of hours to kill when my fiancée was playing PS4 on Saturday, so I stole her Vita copy of Final Fantasy X HD. I've played up until the party leave Besaid. Final Fantasy X is one of my favourites, so it's great getting to revisit the game. She gave me her unused download code for X-2 HD as well, so I'm looking forward to some sphere-hunting on the go too ^.^ Overall it's been a fairly fun week :)

      Editing … I actually prefer Andromeda's combat as well. In 3, it felt more actiony than the previous games, but your character's movements were still incredibly stiff, so it felt awkward, where in Andromeda you can move around and deal with enemies much faster, so I actually prefer it. I've been playing South Park as well, about 20 hours in and probably near the end, and it's been awesome. I prefer it's combat over the original, and I'm finding it just as funny.
