(no subject)
Well the third day of college has came to an end... I really intended to post after the first day but I've been busy and preoccupied with other matters. Anyways... on to the damage assessment... Well... the hours are definitely nice a 1000-1200 class then a 1300-1500 class. with the hour between 1200 and 1300 being lunch. Its nice having an hour for lunch at last, instead of the 20 minute lunches of high school @_@. As for the class itself, the Professor seems fine... I didn't have any real doubts there... but the class itself is.... how can I put this...? Predictable, perhaps? I don't know... I guess it was the fact that no one really stuck out... I know first impressions aren't everything.... but they pretty much all failed on my first impression basis. Am I going to let that ruin any interaction... a few years ago, yes, I would have. I would avoid them like crazy, but now... things are a bit different and hopefully they do have a bit more to them than what their outside apperances give...or they very well may not. Time will tell. As for lunch... I just hover around the manga section at the bookstore occasionally then I just get something to eat and sit on my own... I could go up to other groups and I'm most likely sure at least half would let me sit at their table. However that is not my style at all. I like to see if they have what it takes to approach me. Those are the ones truly worthy of my attention. This strategy has proven itself time and time again. Its how I met virtually all my long time friends at Hylton.
Today we went on a field trip (Yes, a field trip on the third day) which should kinda tell you a bit more about the NCC. Anyways it wasn't that big of a trip, it was just to Hemlock, another part of GMU. But the activities were... interesting. They threw us in a 'do or do not' situation with the rest of our group members. It showed that as far as my group and the other group, F, were actually rather trustable people on at least the basis of teamwork. Which is a good starting sign that at least group-based classwork will not be a severe issue. How things go from here? We'll see... as you can tell... from comparing the first paragraph to the next... I at least know these people I'm with can get the job done, instead of being a bunch of incompitent lackeys like I quite often got stuck with in previous years of school. In short... faith in this group has risen... slightly...
Now onto more geek material... Gundam Musou 2 has been announced in Japan and the release date is set for December 4th for the Xbox360, PS2, and PS3. They've shown the Nu Gundam and the Sazabi, of which I both really expected to come out on the first game, since Char's Counterattack has been out for quite awhile. They've also shown the integration of Mobile Armor bosses like Big Zam and the Psycho Gundam... which is good and bad
Good: New and more interesting battles
Bad: Another way for the AI to be ludicrously difficult.
Which brings me to my next part... I REALLY hope they make the AI less ridiculous. On certain portions of battles, you would have to go 1 on 1 with the enemy hero (i.e. Char with Hyaku Shiki Vs. Haman in the Quebley) And the enemy AI would block like crazy, and even when you managed to strike a blow, their enormously overpowered defense stats would make your ultimate combo be just like a bug bite to the enemy Mobile Suit. And then, of course to match those wonderful Defense stats, there's the matching Attack stats.... Yipee!
Ill give you a rundown here.... im an avid Musou game player and I cant even finish off Haman Karn in her damned Quebley with my Lv. 10 Char Aznable and Lv. 20 Hyaku Shiki..... those are both the max levels for Pilot and Mobile Suit..... Whisky Tango Foxtrot, over? I get her HP to the red, she hits me with one Final Musou attack then I'm in the freaking red, and its basically game over from there...
Blah!! anyways I want Warriors Orochi 2!! 97 freaking characters!!! Fu Xi! Nu Wa! Minamoto no Yoshitsune with his badass arm-mounted lightsaber and Shin Orochi!! As if just a normal Snake Demon wasn't bad enough, how about a near death and royally pissed off Snake Demon? Not to mention Nene, Xiao Qiao and Da Ji each having really freaking kawaii alternate outfits >.< Just 26 more days... September 23!! But between PSP Warriors Orochi and Mercenaries 2 due out this Sunday... I should make it. ^^;;
