Going baaaack, back in time!

Spoilers for GTA to follow. I'm probably a few months late in needing to bother writing that.

I finished GTA4 a few days ago, so now I can just race around blowing stuff up for fun and not have to worry about preserving cash or ammo. Not that I have much left; the last mission freaking killed me, over and over again. I ended up blowing like $50k on rockets before I got smart and created a save file with optimum ammo I could return to after failing a couple of times. Apparently I chose (?) the ending where Kate dies, which is y'know, sad and all that, but like Nay remarked..."You're supposed to care? You dated her like, twice." I think I'm paraphrasing. Next up: shooting 98 more pigeons. Whoo!

I've also started Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions. It's my first Tactics game (and what, fourth FF game?) and it's pretty cool other than the fact that I don't know what I'm doing. I can't seem to find how to use potions or items, the camera angles seem to be actively mocking me, and each battle takes about half an hour. I'm the guy who gets bored with a battle after three minutes.

I suppose I could read the manual. But isn't that supposed to take the fun out of it or something?

games are like sex
