Playing Google+ Games

I never thought in a million years I would be playing games on Google+. I avoided them like the plague on Facebook. The past few days I have found myself strangely addicted to some of them. I just keep telling myself one more time, and the next thing you know I have played for several hours.

I am mostly into the single player games where other people don't have to be constantly involved. I am not going to be playing Farmville, Godfather, Mafia Wars, and etc. I actually like playing others like Bejeweled, Collapse Blast, Diamond Dash, Angry Birds, and Bubble Island.

These games don't really require friends to keep giving you stuff, but instead offer rewards to help them. I like this much better than give me a piece of lumber so I can build a fence around my farm, or silly stuff like that.

Right now my favorite of all is Bejeweled. I like it because each game is just a minute long. It is quick, easy, fun, and always a challenge to try to break your high score. You basically try to match three same colored blocks or more, and use special gems to gain special powers to blow out whole rows, aoe an area, or have a multiplier. You can also earn coins which let you gain boosts which also help raise your score.

All in all these games can be kind of fun, and give you a break away from other games. I recommend taking a look at some of these games on Google+, and see for yourself.

Fallout 3 Is Growing On Me

Tonight I decided to give Fallout 3 another shot. It is still a little frustrating at times because I feel like I don't know what I am doing. The more I played it tonight though the more I started feeling more comfortable with the game.

I decided to follow the story, and the questing this time. It sure beats just roaming around with no sense of purpose. I initially had a hard time figuring out where to go for the quests. I actually took a small break, and read the manual.  It is amazing what you can learn from reading it. I at least now understand what all the things on the compass, and map stand for.

I still am not 100% sure I understand all the perks, skills, leveling up stuff yet. I am sure eventually it will all make more sense as I progress, and learn as I go. The manual explains most of it, but it still seems greek to me.

I still am dying a ton. I can't seem to ever have enough stimpaks, or caps to buy them. I swear sometimes it seems like my guns aren't shooting. You never know maybe they aren't. I totally forgot about the VATS until I saw it in the manual so I may have to use it more. I seem to go into a panic when I see an enemy, and the next thing I know is I see my head rolling around with blood everywhere.
