hydra-star's GameLogBlogging the experience of gameplayhttps://www.gamelog.cl/gamers/GamerPage.php?idgamer=1115Columbine RPG (PC) - Thu, 29 Oct 2009 13:54:41https://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=4035I'd gotten to the point in the game which I assume is the main part. I spent a half hour walking around shooting a bunch of high school kids. The bathrooms were interesting, at least. I managed to save a kid from getting beaten up. Of course, I had to shoot some people to do it. I also set off the fire alarm in the cafeteria (which I had no trouble finding due to my earlier exploits)and caused general mayhem. I must admit, near the end I was counting down the minutes. I did not enjoy this game at all.Thu, 29 Oct 2009 13:54:41 CDThttps://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=4035&iddiary=7551Columbine RPG (PC) - Thu, 29 Oct 2009 13:52:22https://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=4035Reluctantly, I picked this game back up. After my poor experience with it last time I was not keen on playing it again. After several times trying back into the cafeteria, finally succeeding, and trying unsuccessfully to get over to the tables by the vending machine (of which I only saw one group)I finally decided to attempt to go around the perimeter of the entire cafeteria in order to set the bombs. I FINALLY got one set, only to find that I couldn't figure out where the other one was supposed to be. I confess, much to my utter shame, that I spent most of the half hour over by the wrong vending machines trying to figure out how to set the bomb. Finally I figured out that there were some other vending machines and I set the bomb by those. Yippie! Ahem. Not really. Once the bombs were set I had to get back out, which was another horrific ordeal of trying to get past the most diligent hall monitors ever. My high school wishes they had hall monitors like this. I got out and made it to the park after much hassle where I didn't pay any attention to what they were saying to each other and thus missed where I was supposed to go next. So I wandered around the school, pulled the fire alarm, and was generally bored for a few minutes before I tried going out to the car where I set another bomb. Then they told me to go somewhere I had never heard of (fun!) which left my wandering around the park for a few minutes before I figured out that the mystery place was right by the parking lot. I'd actually gone a little over time at this point so I put the game down and went to bed.Thu, 29 Oct 2009 13:52:22 CDThttps://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=4035&iddiary=7549Columbine RPG (PC) - Thu, 29 Oct 2009 13:45:17https://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=4035Although I did play this on 3 separate occasions, I must admit that I forgot to write it up until this moment. Hee hee. I took note, however, so I do know what I did. I think that Columbine high school must have had the most amazing security of any high school on the planet, and that makes me wonder how anyone even walked in with a trench coat on at all ever. If you even step into the middle of the hallways alarms go off, and those hall monitors are extremely diligent. I wish they'd shown me what those security cameras looked like so I could have shot them. I spent my first half hour playing just trying to get into the cafeteria. I'm not sure if that says more about how bad of a player I am or about how bad of a game this is. I finally figured out a fixed route I had to take to get to the cafeteria. At which time I quickly got caught after taking 3 steps inside and had to start all over again. I was unhappy, and decided that it was time to put the game down for a while.Thu, 29 Oct 2009 13:45:17 CDThttps://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=4035&iddiary=7548Grand Theft Auto - San Andreas (PS2) - Thu, 24 Sep 2009 14:57:37https://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=3900Me and Bruce finished the last half hour right before I had to go to class. Phew. I started by going to see Ryder and getting my hair cut. Which was kinda silly, because I was able to mysteriously grow facial hair by going to the barber. I passed the next mission, and then failed the graffiti mission. Twice. First I got shot, and then my terrible driving got Ryder's car blown up. It was kinda funny, because I got out of the car so I wouldn't get blown up and Ryder was there yelling at me to get back in. Then he got blown up himself. Yay for killing NPCs! Ahem. Anyway, by that time a half hour had passed and I stopped playing, so I never actually finished that mission. As I've already said, I do not like this game. At all. It's all so immature and stupid. And, for the record, immoral.Thu, 24 Sep 2009 14:57:37 CDThttps://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=3900&iddiary=7347Grand Theft Auto - San Andreas (PS2) - Wed, 23 Sep 2009 18:15:47https://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=3900So I played again yesterday (even though, once again, I'm updating about it a day later) at my friend Bruce's dorm. He actually knew what I was supposed to be doing, so, after getting killed a few more times, I actually completed the first mission! Yay! Keeping up with my cousin on that stupid bike was really hard. And random people kept shooting at me and running me over! I thought they were very rude. I'm really not enjoying this game at all. It is incredibly and blatantly racist, sexist, and just about every other ist. It's filled with stereotypes and the plot seems simplistic thus far.Wed, 23 Sep 2009 18:15:47 CDThttps://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=3900&iddiary=7303Grand Theft Auto - San Andreas (PS2) - Tue, 22 Sep 2009 20:39:47https://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=3900So I started playing Grand theft Auto on Monday. I went to the game lab between my two classes. It was loud in there, and I couldn't hear anything that they told me to do, so I was very confused. I got killed within the first 2 minutes when someone shot me while I was trying to figure out how to ride a bike. Then I died when I crashed my car a few too many times and it blew up in my face. Really, I just died a lot. Since I had no idea what I was supposed to be doing, I just ran around for a half hour. After a while I figured out that if you beat up old ladies you get their money. That was... interesting. Finally some kind soul told me that I should be heading for the CJ on my map. Which, by that time, I had wandered FAR FAR away from. So I spent 10 minutes heading towards the CJ, by which time I had to go to class. So I will try to actually get somewhere later tonight. A friend of mine has the game, and seeing as I made no progress whatsoever I figure I'll head over there in about 15 minutes and start over.Tue, 22 Sep 2009 20:39:47 CDThttps://www.gamelog.cl/logs/LogPage.php?Log_Id=3900&iddiary=7281
