Gaming and Math
So I played my PS2 some more today and did the first two missions in 007 NightFire; the controls are taking a bit to get used to, having move/strafe on the left analog stick and look/turn on the right, but the game's fairly amusing so far. I am liking the control setup, however, and once I get used to it I have a feeling I'm going to be a lot better with it than I am with GoldenEye/Perfect Dark's control scheme. Having a control stick for free-look as well as one for movement is so much better than the C buttons on the N64 controller. It's a lot more like using a keyboard and mouse, which is what I'm best with for FPS games.

Still haven't tried out either of the other games yet, and I'm thinking I'll probably trade in NBA Live 2001, and maybe the tennis game also depending on if I like it, for store credit at GameStop. I figure that, in addition to the $15 gift certificate I already have, should be able to get me a decent older game like FFX.

And yes, algebra: My Beginning Algebra final exam is tomorrow (though since the time zone for myOtaku is Eastern Time, it'll show as "today" since it's past 9:00 PM Pacific Time right now) from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM. I did the little "mini-final" he handed out last Friday -- 15 problems that are an example of what sort of stuff is going to be on the final -- and I didn't have much problem with them, so I think I'm in pretty good shape. The only thing that I'm not good at is those stupid word problems. It's like they try and word the questions funny to mess you up, heh.
