Resident Evil 4

Games:

Haven’t played much Live recently. Can’t really explain it, other than a general lack of impetus. I don’t know – there are people I haven’t talked to for a bit that I could actually keep in touch with via Live, but just haven’t been on. Ei-Nyung’s sister & nieces were here over the weekend, so I’ve been … busy, I guess.

Have squeezed in a few hours of Resident Evil 4, which is a tremendous, astronomical jump up from Code Veronica, or even RE:0. The shift in perspective is *such* a startling difference that it’s surprising they haven’t done it before, except for that it did require a full 3-D world. So there is that, I suppose. But the other thing is that at least thus far, it hasn’t been all inventory management and “how close can we keep the player to death all the time, and here’s some really obtuse and ridiculous puzzles,” all the time. So it’s quite an improvement.

Other crap:

Mobi’s getting a friend tomorrow, I hope. Friend from college just moved out here, and he’s got a dog ’bout Mobi’s size named Monte. So hopefully, they’ll get on alright.
