Event Log: 9/30/14 - End of Month

The days are going by faster. I'm worried I'll wake up in the evening some day. By the time I'm fully awake, the day is almost over. It's a little disconcerting. Since it's Tuesday, everything refreshes in Destiny, so I tried to get my weekly activities in as early as possible. As I went through the motions, I felt that there was no point in continuing anymore.

On the plus side, I nabbed Metal Gear Solid (PSX) and Ground Zeroes off of PSN during a Konami sale. I've wanted MGS on my Vita for the longest time, and I've also wanted to play Ground Zeroes for awhile. I was waiting to pounce at the right price. Since I had twenty or so odd bucks in my PSN wallet already, it was a good purchase. I should probably look to expand my Vita storage too, but the prices for 64GB are crazy.

NBA 2K15 is coming out soon and it's shaping up very nicely. A lot of news and media has trickled out over the last few days and I'm getting hyped. The 2K team has really improved the presentation and features. I traded in my copy of 2K14 a long time ago so it'll be nice to jump into a more polished version. The great thing is that there's no more VC cheese. That stuff was annoying. Online-only games are a pain to play.

One of the cooler features is face scan so that your created player could have your own face. I've been thinking of picking up the Playstation Eye just so I can be in the game. That'll be cool.

A new patch for BF4 came out and I tried it out with my friend. I think it made my aiming worse--or perhaps it's Destiny making me lazy with its auto aim. I just could not engage face-to-face with anyone. I kept dying instantly. The only weapon I could be effective with was the SRAW, which is a rocket launcher. You do the math. Eventually, I got into the groove by flanking people and making a concerted effort to aim for the head. The game ain't gonna do it for me, so I'll just do it myself.

My thoughts on the patch? It sucks.
