Its been about 2 weeks since ffxi went down.

So what did you manage to get done in that time?

For me completed Assassins Creed II and got 100% on the trophies.
Almost completed Assassins Creed (Will be complete before Friday)

I read the forums and pushed down the feeling that I needed to slap someone. I'm guessing it will come back out as a psychosis at some point.

Got bored of playing other games. Must've played 20 different games and only maybe played through 2 of them until the end. Mostly watched Prison Break episodes. Mainly on these forums, sometimes went on facebook. Oh, and I actually attended one of my classes today too!

Started Lord of the Rings online.........can't believe I'm having fun. You can swim, jump, ride horses that will jump over fences, at higher levels some good looking harness, or crazy hairy goats with big horns and lots of gear. You can buy a house and furnish it. May have to play two games at once.

What does that have to do with him calling it a "throw-away game series?

No idea, as you can jump back in the anamis after completing the game to get 100% on the DNA, I always say it as having more to do after finishing it.

Also with ffxi been down for as long as it was.
I released while I would miss ffxi if it ended.

I would just end up back to how it was before ffxi.

web designing ps3 gaming and if work permits pub time ( I work mostly nights, so social life is out of the question, and probably why I love ffxi so much)

Things I did... dusted off codmw2, got to rank 31, may hit 35 tomorrow, spent time discussing with my wife things we could do on our tarutaru's, she wants to get them married. *sighs* It just gets added to the list of other things she wants to do when servers are back up.. unlock summoner, get the avatars, work on fame.. etc etc etc.. Things Id like to do.. well im already doing them... scouting forums for latest news and well youtube vids of different ffxi quest missions. May not be able to play, but can still watch. :-P

Played Fallout: New Vegas. Between the game being pretty long and the constant glitches and freezing up and needing to restart my system every so often...it has kept me pretty busy these past few weeks. Still miss final though...but who doesn't.

Taxes, read Punpun, started a new Chrono Cross save that may keep me from the game even after it comes back up. After getting over the graphics shock, I was reminded just how epic that game was.

Ps. Where is my freaking Chrono Break?

Cleaned the entire house. Watched the series of Spartacus. Tried to find good movies on Netflix. If anyone has suggestions I'm open to them :D Um, actually did ALL the laundry not just some. It's pouring rain out so not much else to do but put in applications for that "job" I'm supposed to get. Played some other games that held my interested for about 2 minutes.

*sigh* Almost time.

Is that Star Ocean 4?
And is that the "Till the end of time"?
Can't finish that, keeps crashing. (PS3 PS2 Combitabilty issues)

Star Ocean 4 is "The Last Hope", Star Ocean 3 is "Till the end of time".

Anyway I take back what I said earlier, I realized I did accomplish something.
Which was that I found a Plants vs Zombies torrent and since then have gotten the gold trophy in it. Only missing a few more things and just found the Yeti Zombie (last one).

*Spoiler*
Lol, which version? The 360 one or the International one on PS3? I went with the PS3 one for the japanese audio/english subtitles. Silly Edge, blowing up the Earth and then going all "I fail, don't ask me to intervene cause I'll just blow up every planet". When I first landed on that "Earth" I had a deep fear that I was about to enter a Roswell New Mexico alien conspiracy story. Sure, it wasn't actually Roswell but, my fears were still relatively realized :/ Don't know why they stripped Reimi though, and they're all idiots for falling for the obvious trap. Still loved the game though, was actually hard (at least until you master the combat system/blind siding).

Completely off-topic I know but, the topic is about what we did while ffxi was down, and while I beat this prior to that, it's still in my recent memory.

Crawlerbasher
03-25-2011, 10:44 AM
its the international ps3 version

I just love it how Edge keeps getting caught by Reimi doing something he shouldn't
And end up getting slapped for it.
