6:15AM... Still playing HoMM 3. Its funny, the map we've been playing on (for ages it seems) looks like the North America, and even has towns and areas that are named after provinces, states, and cities, even.

Heroes of Might and Magic is a Turn-based Strategy game. Its rather fun and simply addicting to be honest. You own a town, which has an alignment of sorts which determines what type of unit and hero you will produce. Your units are your nitty-gritty fighters while your hero just kinda stands in the back and provides nifty bonuses and spells to the units under its command. Depending on your current hero's army strength, or overall power of the units under that hero's command, enemy monsters that guard precious resources will scatter just at the sight of your hero, or even, in awe, ask to join your cause, whatever it may be ;D.

It could be a faster paced game, to be honest, but all-in-all, it's pretty damn fun.

Initial

I'm starting to really hate my insomnia. Vaguely remember Theresa waking me up around 12PM (or 3PM, too hazy to remember) letting me know that she was going to Alana's to help her move today, and passed out immediately after.

Woke up around 3:30PM, hopped online (ultra-groggy I might add) and then started to play HoMM 3 with Thomas. Played until around 8PM or so, saved it and took a break, my eyes were starting to kill me. After eating some soup, I hopped on Mass Effect to finish up those achievements that I neglected so long ago... 2 hours and several campaign restarts later, I finally manage to get my character looking the way I want it (pale white with black hair and blue eyes... doesn't seem difficult, but with me I can make anything difficult :D) and set the difficulty on Hardcore, just to find out that Thomas wants to play Heroes 3 again.

So much for all that campaign effort on Mass Effect...
