i'm currently gaming the forex market, there has been a lot of volatility lately so some good opportunities for gain and profit.

L.A. Noire Complete Edition.

So I lost all my Skyrim mods due to being a retard.
Mod Nexus only save the last mods you download per month.
I didn't bookmark the mods I was using, cause I was a fucking moron.

!!FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS!!!

So now I'm going thru Nexus.
Finding mods I remember.
Finding mods that look and/or sound cool/useful.
Hoping I can get rid of that warning message every time I load my fucking save.

Finished Mass Effect on PS3, moving on to Mass Effect 2.

trying to game the dating scene and score some cheap and easy 1 night stands.

Investment Banker please stick to the topic at hand. This topic is about VIDEOGAMES...

Going to play Broken Sword: Shadow of the Templars(PS1) since I've never been able to finish it.

several days ago I finished Atelier Rorona: The Alchemist of Arland (PS3) and now I am playing Star Ocean: First departure (PSP) :)

warcraft 3 dota lol, so nostalgic ...

Lego Pirates Of the Caribbean (PC), Alice Madness Returns (PC), Fahrenheit (PC), Secret Files: Tunguska (PC)

Been playing Broken Sword for the past 3 days. I'm loving the game, despite how horribly blurry the graphics are. It really makes it hard for me to see certain objects.

I'm currently in Syria, and holy crap, the game runs really slow at that point for some reason.

Oblivion with 200 mods :D It's so much fun man!

FO3 GOTY XB360

I am playing retro game like panzer dragoon and cyberbots.
(Is there a place where newbie introduce themselve?)

Been flailing about for something (anything really) new to play, but very little's caught my fancy at the moment. Games drought + Seemingly Endless Heatwave = Abject Misery.

But, I did play some games.
Not a new game obviously, but I went on a Dragon Age: Origins bender to try and deaden the pain of having to wait so long for Inquisition. Played it through 3 times to mop up all the trophies and experience the Origins I hadn't previously used, see the various DLC packs etc etc and frankly I never want to see that game again now! (Just joking - but seriously, don't try that at home!)

Had a spin on Resident Evil Revelations. Cracking game, one of the very best RE games of recent times. Decent story, likable new characters (Jill and Chris aren't used very well though - they're unconnected almost completely to the game's central story, certainly compared to all the new characters, which makes them a bit of a strange choice to be the main characters as they have no real personal stake in what's happening). Great game though - a 'proper' RE game again at last! That last boss though... holy christ, that sod whupped me so many times before I got him!

Took a jaunt through Remember Me. A sort of decentish game, that really wasn't as good as I was hoping. It had its moments and some of the memory remixes were pretty cool, but... Not a bad game, but not really a very good one either.

Oh, and Bioshock Infinite. It was... meh. Never really clicked with me (and I love the Bioshock series as a rule). I liked the eccentric Lutesc twins, and frankly without them, I probably wouldn't have made it through the game. Couldn't really find the motivation to care about anyone else. The vigors seemed really out of place, and didn't appear to have any in game justification. I mean it was an okay game and all, but I can't see what all the fuss was about.

Had a go on that new Tomb Raider actually, as well. It was pretty good I thought, but I'm probably not the best judge, seeing as how I hated Tomb Raider in the past. Again, it wasn't really anything that special, but it did a turn.

But yeah, its been a lean old time, this year. Had a good laugh about the the Xbox One launch, but I'm willing to let bygones be bygones now that they've canned the 'always has to be online' nonsense. Neither console has any exclusives I care about, so I'm not willing to fly my colours for either ship just yet.

Hey, haven't seen you in a while. :D

Syphon Filter 2

Welcome back Vrykolas, been awhile.

Gone back to playing Battlefield 3 with some friends, and as a rank 1 got my M.I.A Achievement (Obtain first dog tag in MP) from a rank 100. Now, I died multiple times... but that one kill made it worthwhile. Oh, the hate mail... so delicious.

Hey guys. I've been knocking about, but I haven't played much that I really cared to comment on, basically! And the longer you go without posting, the harder it is to get back on the horse, but enough of such things... its nice to be back.

Coincidence about Dodo playing Broken Sword - I was just playing it through again on my DS. Always loved that game, but then I love the Knights Templar full stop. Really wish that more of the old adventure games would be ported to the current handhelds. Beneath a Steel Sky, Grim Fandango, Gabriel Knight - give em to me! Again! I really will buy them again!

Funny you should mention about "Beneath a Steel Sky". On GOG, a summer sale was going on last month and they were giving 10 old games away for free, including Torchlight, and one of the old games was "Beneath a Steeal Sky. I never played it before since I never had a computer back in the day. Since it's from the same company that made the Broken Sword series, I might enjoy it.

Civilization 4: Beyond the Sword

Battlefield 3 Premium on Xbox 360.
Mass Effect 2 on PS3.

Metal Gear Solid 4 and Little Big Planet 2 for PS3. Gotta play for dem trophies.

Retro City Rampage while I wait for Tales of Xillia to arrive.

Animal Crossing New Leaf
The Beatles Rockband

The Last of Us
Replaying Discworld 1 as well

Mass Effect.

Before replaying ME 3 after finishing ME 2, I'm going to watch Mass Effect: Paragon Lost first since it takes place some time before the events of ME 3.

Animal Crossing New Leaf

Same here. 2 months later and I'm still playing. Heh.

I also finally got my Super Mario RPG cartridge cleaned, so it works again! I've been playing that on the side as well.

Mass Effect.

Before replaying ME 3 after finishing ME 2, I'm going to watch Mass Effect: Paragon Lost first since it takes place some time before the events of ME 3.

Don't bother... Paragon Lost rewrites things stated in ME3 and conflicts badly. The anime style is pretty poor as well. A lot of people on the BioWare Social Network and other forums have all slammed it, just like they did to the fourth ME novel, Deception (Which BioWare has acknowledged contains discrepancies with other Mass Effect lore).

Playing Dynasty Warriors 8 and enjoying myself immensely.

I may not notice it depending on what is. I just seek to be entertained. :p

I might enjoy it regardless.

That's your choice, just saying my opinion and what I've read about it on other forums.

Fans never like continuity changes, and I sympathise completely. But the fact is, they happen all the time. Sometimes the discrepancies are mistakes (Zevran and Leliana's continued existence in DA2 even if they died in DA:O), but other times the writers just feel certain things work better done a little differently (omni gel no longer opening all locks ever made everywhere).

There is plenty of retcon in the games. Its never good when it happens, but its just one of those things. Quality of product is the only thing that really matters IMO. Continuity issues all eventually sort themselves out in the end.

Not in the case of Mass Effect Paragon Lost... one major change involving James Vega in the anime and then in the game (especially as the game came out BEFORE the anime)...

At the end of Paragon Lost, James is inducted into the N7 Program as a reward by Captain Anderson and Admiral Hackett for his actions... yet in the game, James approaches Shepard in Shepard's cabin and says how he has just been invited to join the N7 Program and asks for advice. Continuity is thrown out the window there...

Then there's the fourth ME novel, Deception... and look at the ire that caused, to where even BioWare denounced it themselves and have stated that they are working on a newer version which'll fit in with the previous three novels, as well as the games and comics. The quality of the anime, the art style, the voice acting... everything... is all subpar. That's not just my opinion, but the general consensus regarding Paragon Lost on the BioWare Social Network, other forums, even on Youtube where there are full versions available and the comment sections are full of negativity towards it.

Paragon Lost is a cheap cash grab that has more in common with a McDonald's kid's toy than an ACTUAL anime movie.

And this is coming from someone who think the whole ME series is just 'okay'.
No fanboy crap here.

Decided to watch Paragon Lost after finishing up on Feros. Call me crazy, but I thought it was really good. I can see that continuity error Darth Revan pointed out(I didn't read the spoiler before watching the movie) and it doesn't really bother me. The animation was very nice and the voice acting was good, especially on Freddie Prinze Jr.'s part, imo . I personally don't see anything wrong with the animation and voice acting, but whatever. I usually have low expectations. I want the soundtrack now after hearing it in the movie :P. It's too bad the both of you didn't enjoy it, but it's no big deal.

I'll be getting back to Mass Effect in the morning.

I'm too hyped for Dragon's Crown, honestly.

When the reviews started poring in, I was REALLY happy.
Dragon's Crown for PlayStation 3 Reviews - Metacritic (http://www.metacritic.com/game/playstation-3/dragons-crown)

The reviewers I trust (READ: Have similar tastes) are loving this game...
O, and the only lag mentioned is some occasional stuff online.

<3 <3 <3

I remember seeing one trailer of it and not hearing about it in a while. It looks interesting.

Well, as continuity errors go, I don't really consider that something to get all hot and bothered about. Its a foolish... error (if it actually is an error, as it seems more likely that its an intentional rewrite, given that the actor if nobody else would know it contradicts his earlier work). Its really stupid, whatever the reasoning.

But like I say, these things happen. It really bugged me in ME3 for example, when Joker cracked his knuckles in preparation for some 'ace piloting' - that is something he would *never* do, as with his Vrolik's Symdrome, it would almost certainly lead to severe damage to his hands! Given that they were in the middle of a space battle, and hands being of the utmost importance to a pilot, its like if a star baseball player upon stepping up to bat, turned to his coach and said 'Hey, I'm feeling so good today, that I'm going to smash my bat with crippling ferocity into my arms and legs a dozen times for luck - that's the ticket!'

And besides, compared to characters magically being alive when they should be dead like in Dragon Age, it pales into insignificance IMO (because that is actually undermining distinct and important choices that people have made). Nothing kills the illusion quite so much as seeing someone appear when you saw and participated in the scene where they died. To do that without even offering any explanation or justification was terrible. In contrast, this is an error from a spin off extra about a character who is only in 1 of the 3 games, and who is a fairly minor part of the series (the whole information he gives you on that subject is completely optional as well).

Alright, now onto Mass Effect 2.

Hm, I don't remember Joker popping his knuckles, but that's probably because I only played the ME 3 campaign once. It wouldn't have bother me anyway, because I can just pretend that his bones have probably improved in some certain way while at the same time not giving a crap. But that's just me. =)

It doesn't bother me in an 'Arrggh, that's it, I'm done with this game!' kind of way - its just annoying that they take a character, with a disability that they flag up all the time, then have him do something so blatantly out of character. Fans often get far too worked up over continuity issues - I'm usually pretty relaxed about them, unless they directly undermine my choices in the game (or from previous games).

That doesn't mean I don't wince when I see continuity errors though. One of the big selling points of the series was that you would get to carry over a character, have your choices matter, see how things pan out etc. That means continuity is of the utmost importance, but Bioware are extremely cavalier about in ME and DA. Basically, its a case of 'Your choices matter and the world will be consistent - unless we don't agree with your choices and need the world to do something specific'.

Anyway, I'm playing Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney. The new one's out in the next few months, so I'm going to play 'em all again in readiness.

Tales of Xillia
Final Fantasy XI
Tera Online
Lineage 2
Borderlands 2 DLC stuff

Yeah I'm pretty crammed with gaming atm

Dragon's Crown

:D

I'm way way way behind, so in anticipation of the US getting Professor Layton vs Phoenix Wright next year, I'm playing Trials & Tribulations.

GTA5 Map:


Alfred Hitchcock silhouette:

I am currently playing Star Ocean: The Last Hope International (PS3), Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 (PS3), Sengoku Musou 3 Z-Special (PSP), Drakan: The Ancients' Gates (PS2) and I'm slowly playing Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance (3DS), (I might come back playing it full time, after I try to clear more characters in Sengoku Musou 3 Z-Special).

In Star Ocean: The Last Hope, I finally able to fight Lord of Dragon (Rank #1) at the Colosseum after defeating Ultrabeast Gedoran 6-7 times using Edge in Solo mode. He is Level 69 now and trying to achieve the trophy Colosseum Champion.

Tales of Xillia.

Corpse Party.

Man, that game is intense! The first couple of chapters are absolutely electric with atmosphere. Its pretty good throughout, but those early chapters are truly outstanding.

Trying to connect to a working VPN server using VPN Gate so I can play Mobile Suit Gundam Online, but I'm currently on Skyrim.

Just finished Tales of the Abyss. The game was wonderful. I think I'll play La Pucelle Tactics next. Looks like Disgaea 0, should be fun.

Mario & Luigi: Dream Team. It's interesting so far. Though, I think the music sounds very generic compared to the previous games... but other than that, it's interesting is all I can say.

Saints Row The Third on PS3... getting back into the 'Saints' mindset in preparation for Saints Row IV in 10 more days.

Trials Evolution. only the demo though.

Trying to get all the riddler trophies in Batman Arkham City. Can't wait to finish this and delete it so I can play Hitman Absolution.

Still on Skyrim. Friggen HATE Ancient Dragons. They're the worst, by far. The Frost Dragons are bad, but the Ancients are, by far, the worst.

Mostly FFXI during all my free gaming time now. I'm dualboxing 2 characters.

You should hand out a prize for anyone who can guess how many "Last of Us''s there are in that last post. Seriously though, enthusiasm for a game is one thing, but... Unless you meant that you're some kind of Doctor Octopus clone, and you're playing it that many times at once. That would actually be really useful for doing multiple playthroughs of RPGs... hmm.

Anyway, I'm playing Advance Wars 2 - just one copy of it.

I'm going though my PS3 games and beating them.

Promised myself I wouldn't buy another game until I did.

Was playing some PAYDAY 2. Now, Shogun 2: Total War

Tales of Xillia.

^this. made it to the endgame but still a long way to go for platinum.

Got Platinum in Saints Row The Third on PS3, was about to start Sleeping Dogs... but with the FFXIVARR Phase IV beta starting in an hour... might just let my console cool down before going to Eorzea.

I downloaded Ride To Hell: Retribution on the PC to see how bad it really is and, well, I now see how bad it is. So glad I didn't waste 30$ dollars on it. When I first saw it on a shelf at Gamestop, I was interested until I saw the review scores for it as well as watching this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VA3vijm17Bs) recently. I remember hearing about this game(known as just Ride to Hell)in 2007 or 2008 and it looked interesting. It's very sad seeing how this turned out. It's like the devs gave up knowing this wasn't going to turn out good. Only good thing about the game is the music, I really like it. I personally give it a 3 out of 10. It's somewhat playable, has nice music, but that's about it.

I'm going to play Shogun 2 after I get RTH: Retribution off my computer.

A clone of Doc Oc? fucking, I wish man. I could jam so many games at once.

Lolipop Chainsaw

Flying legless zombies.....and I thought I've seen everything xD

I never did get round to playing that, but its stayed on my radar just about. Suda's been a bit off the boil recently IMO. Killer7 is one of my most treasured gaming experiences, simply because of how utterly crazy it is. But his more recent stuff... meh. I guess I judge him more harshly because I consider him to be one of the only remaining hopes for gaming to break out of its risk averse, terminally 'play it safe' rut that its in right now.

Speaking of treasured memories though, I had a classic Resident Evil a-thon this weekend. Downloaded RE2 and RE3 to my Vita, dragged out the Gamecube for RE1 remake and RE0. Even after all this time, those games are still amazing. Still can't get used to the Vita's method of L2 and R2 buttons (it uses a touchpad on the back of the Vita, which makes holding the damn thing a real pain sometimes). I didn't even know the Vita had such a thing, until I was playing Symphony of the Night a couple of months ago, and found myself constantly shifting into Wolf Form!

But yeah, the old RE games. Good times, good times.

SUMMONER for PC from THQ

New Super Mario Bros U and New Super Luigi U

Loving 'em

Skyrim

After finishing Dawnguard, I'm currently on Solstheim to do the Dragonborn quest line. Ahhhh, nostalgia.

Sleeping Dogs on the PS3. Gotta love the environment kills and the links to Hong Kong cinema... feels a bit like Police Story.

I've been playing the life out of Disgaea 3 Absence of Detention. I've spent a lot of time in the Item World, leveling and prepping (storing mana) so that I can get all the DLC included characters post story. I like that this port included human class unique attacks (Overload is an awesome early learned attack based on RES for the healer).

Zone of the Enders, the Second Runner -- finished the first one just recently. Both on the HD remake. Great games!

Playing Tales of Graces f. This is probably one of the hardest rpgs I've played. I have to overgrind on the higher difficulties. Then turn the difficulty down and still come close to losing every boss battle.
I'm liking some of the characters though.

Of course the game I'm really waiting for is Disgaea Dimension 2...

Been playing a bit of Saints Row IV... don't really see how some people are raving about it. Have no real drive to finish it. Still playing Battlefield 3 mp alongside this.

Tokyo Jungle

3.75USD for this game was a STEAL.

Tales Of Xillia. 4 trophies to platinum, but still a long way to go.

Took a look at the 2 DLC packs for Resident Evil 5. 'Desperate Escape' was okay, with some truly ferocious combat, but it felt really light on story and character - a missed opportunity for Jill and Josh both really.

"Lost In Nightmares' however... now that's what I'm talking about! A proper old time RE survival horror feel, and proof that Capcom can still do survival horror when they want to - they just sadly don't seem to want to do it anymore. But on this evidence, I can't understand why not, because whilst very short, LIN is everything that old RE fans have been pining for. I felt genuinely tense throughout (and I almost jumped out of my skin when that dead body landed on my character!)

Please, please go back to making RE games like this, Capcom! I'll pay any price!

Final Fantasy XIV A Realm Reborn on PS3
Call of Duty Modern Warfare and Battlefield 3 on Xbox 360

I just beat Donkey Kong Country Returns on Wii to 100% completion, with the exception of getting all the puzzle pieces. Screw that with very inconsequential rewards.

So I've moved onto this:



I've been playing all my Wii games, including this one (in the Dream Collection) on my WiiU.

Tales of Xillia (PS3), XIII (Thirteen) (PS2) (A FPS with a Cartoon Graphic looks), and Mana Khemia: Student Alliance (PSP) (Also known as, Mana Khemia: Alchemists of Al-Revis for the PS2). I think I am starting to play Xillia full time, I got 2 trophies so far and I'm still on Chapter one.

Columns.

I'm getting back into Mario & Luigi: Dream Team after not playing for a few weeks. I was stuck on this one part and couldn't figure out what to do. I hate looking up walkthroughs unless I absolutely have to, so I did. Of course it was something that was stupidly obvious... :rolleyes: Oh well. Getting back into it now.

Just finished Halo 4. Replaying games I have while awaiting Arkham Origins, Watch Dogs, Destiny, and The Phenom Edition of WWE 2K14, all of which I pre ordered. Right now, I am on Mass Effect.

platinumed Tales of Xillia last nite. now playing Disgaea 3, but will play the hell outta Rayman Legends when I get it.

Playing FFXIV ARR on PC atm, when I'm not getting 1017'd.

dark souls ps3

Thanks to dumbass American players (This isn't just a blatent attack, but based on the fact of a forum post on the official FFXIV forums, of a American player calling for other Americans to create characters and spam the JP servers, refusing access to JP players and those who play on JP servers) I've been unable to get into FFXIV ARR for 24 hours. Hopefully the 12 hour maintenance tomorrow and the inclusion of new servers will help fix this problem... Inconsiderate assholes... Moderators deleted the post, but the damage was already done with over 12 pages of people either agreeing to follow the OP's idea or those advocating patience etc.

So, decided to kill people in Battlefield 3 MP... very therapeutic running around knifing everyone and the hatemail? Absolutely delicious.

I never played Final Fantasy XIV(I can't afford to play sub-based games), but why on earth did they do that?

After finishing Skyrim completly on 360, I'm going to give the PC version a try, but I'm going to install some mods first before I get started.

Transformers: Fall of Cybertron

Restarted FFVII on my Mac using PCSX. It's been an easy 10 years since I've seen it and 10 hours in it turns out that I suct completely the last time I played! Excellent game.

I never played Final Fantasy XIV(I can't afford to play sub-based games), but why on earth did they do that?

Because they're angry about the server disruptions and trouble people having logging in. The game has done very well, beyond SE's initial expectations and thus, they need to create more servers to handle the demand (which the upcoming 12 hour maintenance today/tomorrow will introduce). Because of this, the American players who agreed with that post on the FFXIV forums are doing it deliberately to make JP (and others who play on JP servers) players suffer like they are.

Virtua Fighter 2

QuakeII on my PPC G5.:D
Just finished Doom3 for the second time and wanted to remember how QuakeII came up against it.
So far - it's a heck of a lot of fun.

Final Fantasy XIV A Realm Reborn and Sleeping Dogs on PS3. Finishing off Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare and still playing Battlefield 3 MP.

Speaking of Final Fantasy XIV

I should probably create a XIV section. Making it right now.

Tales of Xilia (who comes up with these names - doesn't exactly roll off the tongue, does it?)

Its pretty good and whilst obviously rushed in some regards, its better than Tales of Graces in all the areas that really matter to me (i.e characters, tone and story - though the story still isn't that great, its just better better than the one from Graces). Its better written overall than Graces (far less meledrama), and its darker and more sober to boot, which suits me just fine.

But yeah, there's a *lot* of reused environments, enemies etc, and the combat system is extremely basic compared to Graces' excellent system. Like all the Tales games, it makes terrible use of its main plot and villains for the most part. Huge, huge swathes of game will go by, with little to no appearances from any major villains, and with absolutely no progress made on any kind of larger plot at all. Just lots of wandering the wilderness, much back and forth between identical ports, and a whole load of completely secondary quests and plotlines.

So basically, its a Tales game, with everything that implies. A bit dodgy in most of its technical aspects and systems maybe, but the characters and darker tone interest me, and Graces didn't manage to do that. So in my book, its a better game and one of the better JRPGs of recent times.

Skyrim

Skylanders

Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs

I'm taking a break from it, after getting the shit scared out of me every now and then. I'll get back to it tomorrow night.

Kinda sad how The Dark Descent didn't scare me much, for some reason. Maybe I spoiled myself in some way.

GoldenEye 007 for Wii

[COLOR="#ADD8E6"]ONE PIECE: PIRATE WARRIORS 2 for PS3!!

Lucky :<

Still replaying the entire Mass Effect trilogy. Currently on ME 3 after finishing ME 2 for the 2nd time.

The Last Window.

Its a real shame that Cing went under, because this and Hotel Dusk are some of the best written games I've ever played. The characterization and attention to detail are exceptional. Quite frankly the games put most video game writing to shame - if only more game developers got the message that hiring people who actually can write, makes for a better quality product.

Warship Gunner 2

Zelda: Twilight Princess (Gamecube)

I'm currently at the Sacred Grove. Trying to make some progress after putting it off for so long. I believe I'm stuck at this point, maybe that's why I started putting it off since 2010 :p

Skyrim as my review pointed out

Symphony.

Indie game like Audiosurf pretty trippy.

On PS3:
Final Fantasy XIV A Realm Reborn

On Xbox 360:
Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

Phantasy Star Portable 2.

Kingdom Hearts Final Mix

Finished watching:
Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days cutscenes thing.

Yep Kingdom Hearts 1.5 ReMIX

GTA 5

Odin Sphere for PS2

Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep

Farming in both the Colosseum town and the gate. (Terra's story...I'm still ONLY on his story since this whole time)

Played a bit of Army of Two on PS3... not a bad game at all. Still playing Final Fantasy XIV A Realm Reborn and tried out GTAV.

Yeah, I enjoyed Army of Two, as well. I remember the villain had some very inventive insults that he was throwing near the end, that had me howling with laughter. Plus, it was just kind of neat to see the characters just be 2 regular Mercenary guys who were fightin' for the pay. No judgement on them or any 'War is Hell' kind of stuff, just 'Its a job, it brings in the cash, and we're good at it, so why not?'

Plus, its watching them do air guitar at the start of levels. That shit really endeared them to me.

Yeah, I got hooked on the Army of Two games, thanks to the latest : The Devil's Cartel. Tracked down all three of them brand new on PS3, and thoroughly enjoy them. Hope a fourth in the series comes out, but with the way game developers are now...

Anywayz... Still playing Final Fantasy XIV A Realm Reborn. Finally got all the pieces of my Foestriker set for my melee classes so I'm happy. Tried playing some GTAV the other day... just can't get into it. That might change on the 1st of October, but as I'm in the Open Beta for Battlefield 4 dunno if I'll have the time...

The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD. I've been playing this for 2 days now, and the new graphics look great. Especially the lighting and shadow effects and the glowing enemies eyes and stuff. Some of the game's mechanics are sped up a little from what I've noticed so far too. I'm playing through the normal mode first, and then I'm going to play through the new hero mode after.

Rayman 2 Revolution for the PS2

Heroes of Might and Magic, the first game, on PC, and Dragon's Crown on PS3.

Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep - Ventus' story on proud mode...only those last two battles left before I'm done and then on to Aqua's story also on proud mode.

Armored Core Verdict Day, THis game is pretty hard compared to V and the previous ones.

Heroes of Might and Magic II, III, IV, and V, completing the campaign for each game and then starting with the next one. I bought the complete edition 5 years ago, so it's time to finally play through it all, even though I played II and III back in the day.

Rayman Legends. I loved Origins, so I'm already in love with this game too. Really fun so far!

Splinter Cell: Double Agent(360)

It's been a long time since I've finished this game. I don't know how I handled the AI in the past, but the AI's pissing me off. They hear you no matter how slowly and quietly you move when crouched.

Edit: It may have to do with the first mission's level being snowy and icy, making it a bit noisy to walk on. I don't know, that could be it since I'm currently on the prison mission.

I beat Rayman Legends already... I beat it in about 10 hours? I'm disappointed with how short it is. Especially for a $60, 2013 game that's been delayed how many times... there's still tons more stuff I have to collect, and hidden levels though. It's still an awesome game, especially the musical levels, but the main game is too short.

Now I'm replaying Super Mario 3D Land since 3D World comes out in 2 months.

the ENTIRE game? including the Back to Origins levels? beatin it is also one thing. getting all the achievements/trophies is another.

I just meant the main story without doing much extra. I usually do the main stories first, then get extras after if I really like the game. It just seemed very short compared to Origins. This one has a lot more stuff to collect and hidden levels though. I do plan on getting all that stuff and beating the hidden levels too if I can.

I found it on the Oman XBL Marketplace for free lol Granted I had to dig up my 360, but still, it was free lol

Currently playing Kingdom Hearts Final Mix (PS3). These Gummi Missions are kicking my ass...

Killer Is Dead.

Silly name aside, this is pretty good so far. Its no Killer 7 and it feels kind of like he's going through the motions sometimes, but its got some of that old magic. Its the best Suda 51 game for ages, at any rate. I can't understand all the hoo-ha over the Gigolo missions - they're harmless. And the frank that each one ends with an unearthly scream and the girl giving you a free weapon like a giant drill is typically bonkers and hilarious.

Mobile Suit Gundam: Zeonic Front

By far, the hardest Gundam I've ever played. Or maybe I just suck at it. Or both xp

Mobile Suit Gundam: Zeonic Front

Fantastic game.
Like SOCOM meets, well, Gundam.

I sucked at it, at first, because I tried rushing into every battle (like I did with most levels of MSG: Gundam vs Zeta Gundam) but you'll get the hang of it after a while.




OT:
Warship Gunner 2

Team Fortress 2 and Tera. I recently went back and beat Half Life 2 for the 4th or 5th time again.

X-Com: Enemy Unknown since it's a free weekend. I want this so much, as well as it's expansion, Enemy Within.

Hotline Miami

DEAD SPACE, ps3.
pokemon diamond DS
demon souls, iphone

Well, in preparation for Ace Attorney 5 later in the month, I finally gave in and bought a 3DS. It was a more complicated process than I thought (3DS, 3DS XL and... 2DS?! Wha... which... hmm). I eventually settled on the 3DS XL, (pretty much solely because as it has a larger screen), and was then hit with the bombshell that it didn't come with an AC charger. I mean... why not? How are you supposed to charge it up without one of those - the power of prayer?! And of course, the shop didn't have any, so I had to look around town until I found somewhere that had them.

Grr - but its all sorted now. The backwards compatibility with the DS is very welcome, as is the big screen. Suppose I should have a look at what games are on this thing, then...

Warship Gunner 2

GTA4 with mods.

Finished up Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter, now on AMY.

Trying to play GTAV and I just can't get into it at all. TBH, I feel disappointed with it, not as much as I was with Saints Row IV and GTAIV, but still disappointed nonetheless. Gone back to Mass Effect 2 on my PS3.

Replaying GTA Vice City ;)

Fire Emblem: Awakening.

Being a huge fan of Advance Wars, I bought this because of the Intelligent Systems connection, and I'd heard good things about it. But... eh. Its okay I suppose, but I can't really get into it. Its nowhere close to being as great as any of the Advance Wars games IMO. Giving it a good go, but my interest is waning fast.

Spider-Man(PS1) on Normal.

Playing it after seeing DarksydePhil sucking horribly at it while I was making "This Is How You Don't Play Spiderman."

It's baffling to me he had trouble at the bank heist part.

Edit: Just finished it. Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen

I'm getting back into Wind Waker HD. There's a lot of heart pieces and treasure charts that I never found when I played the original, and now I'm discovering them and some other hidden stuff that I didn't know existed.

Playing Resident Evil: Revelations on the Wii U. I used to have the 3DS version, but it got stolen... the controls are kinda weird at times, but this game looks much better on the big screen. I'm currently on episode 2.

The Getaway

Control-wise, it hasn't aged well, but it's very enjoyable. Trying to finish it up since I've never actually finished it when it was first rented for me in the mid 2000s.

My PS3 died.

All those trophies, all that time and effort, all that money spent on games and hardware and DLC...

Oh, my weak heart...

Oh no, that's a real shame, and must be very disheartening :(
Are your trophies still available online? I assume that DLC would be also. I think that they should be accessible even with PS4 if they're online.
Is it unfixable? I found this thread (http://www.ps3iso.com/ps3-tutorials/87025-ultimate-playstation-3-repair-upgrade.html) on another site that seemed like it might be of help.

Hey Tanis.

Yeah, its been a really dark day alright - I was absolutely *devastated* when it happened. I was watching an episode of Doctor Who on my console, when the power just cut out completely and the system turned itself off. I was disturbed of course, but I figured it must be a power surge or some other random crash. But no, it was Yellow Light of Doom time.

Cue abject despair.

I know my DLC purchases are safe, but without a console to play them on, its still money spent for product that I can't currently use. Not without splashing out for a new console (or repair, but I'd probably rather get a new console than fix up a beaten down old one - my PS3 is over 5 years old at least). I'm not sure about the trophies - I am on PSN, but I don't know if that automatically saves your trophies, or if you had to do something to save them (I know basically nothing about Xbox LIVE and PSN, even after all these years, as I don't use them for anything -at all- outside of DLC purchases/game downloads).

Because I'm a real card carrying technophobe - just managing to post on websites is like an act of supreme sorcery to me! I love video games, but I really, *really* don't like or understand technology itself. I'm probably the only person left on this planet, who doesn't own a mobile phone! So the idea of me playing amateur mechanic... it'll never happen. Thanks for telling me though - don't mistake my technical ineptitude for a lack of gratitude.

Damn, that sucks. My PS3 still is alive and going, thankfully.

Oh, and you're not the only one who doesn't have a cell phone(well, not yet at least since it's something needed in life eventually).

Vampire Night(PS2)

Edit: Tekken 5

Fuck this game, Jinpachi is impossible, even on Easy.

Edit 2: FINALLY beaten Jinpachi. Took me 26 minutes in-game.

Hey there Vrykolas.

It brings a few tears to my eyes, reading what happened to you, and how it happened out of the blue, as well as how it affected you.
It's difficult to imagine what would happen and what I'd do if it were to befall me.

Ah yes, I understand where you're coming from there. Usually, whenever you check your PSN profile or trophy list in online mode through your PS3, and you have any trophy list that has been updated in any way, then it'll synchronise the trophies. You can go to PSNProfiles (http://psnprofiles.com/) and enter your PSN there, and whatever trophies show up there are the trophies that are saved on your PSN (the recently added trophy-privacy feature can affect their visibility, although that is off by default). Lost trophies that aren't on PSN, and also lost save data, can still be recovered and also backed up, although it would have to be through repairing the console, which depends on whether you'd be willing to do that.

Ah right, that's fair enough and understandable. In the past, I myself have oft just made things worse when trying to fix something to do with hardware, although it's the other way around for software. On mobile phones, all I have is a Nokia E71, and I never use it, or just once in a blue moon - it sits in its original box all day every day xD I find mobile phones useless for myself. You're welcome mate :)

Just thinking about all that lost data, all that lost time... a whole generation's worth of effort and toil. Gone literally in the blink of an eye. But all is not quite lost (its just mostly lost). I used that link to the PSNProfiles page - and after some fiddling about with my Vita, I managed to get it to work - and my trophies at least are safe and sound. At this point, I broke into hysterical cackling 'Sultan Jafar claims the Lamp from Aladdin' laughter - my treasures are safe!!!

Which doesn't bring back my saved data, but its more than good enough for me. Just the peace of mind alone (well, after I stop laughing with insane triumph anyway) has been a weight lifted. Your link to that Profiles page was the promise of hope that I needed to muster my courage. Passwords, account histories, codes... brrr.

But its done now, and I am in your debt Tanis, my good man (or woman). May your every fantasy be not final, and may reaching your final happiness be not merely a fantasy! :D

Your saves weren't uploaded to 'the cloud'?

Or is that only for us PSN+ members?

To lose so much precious data, is a sad thing, although that your trophies are at least safe and sound, is quite comforting to hear :)
Aw, thank you, Vrykolas, and right back at you too :D

@Tanis
That's true, it is restricted to PS+ users only, and whether the saves are automatically uploaded would also depend on the settings. Although, if you ever uploaded a save to PS+, and then your PS+ expired, then your saves will remain in their storage for a period of 6 months before being deleted, as I've heard. I think that PS+ is the only way to (non-hackingly) backup copy-protected saves, and the only other option, which is the "Data Transfer Utility", transfers them to another PS3.

No idea about my saves. Its beyond the ken of a mortal man like me to know such things. Seriously though, I don't know. I've heard of 'The Cloud'. I think I have a rudimentary understanding of what it is, but I've never investigated beyond that. (Although reading that description of how it works by Tails, it seems my saves will be gone forever... Is that a violin I can hear playing somewhere?'

But never mind. As I say, I'm not too bothered, now that I know my trophies are safe. That was the big issue - because if I'd lost them, it would have made a whole generation's worth of gaming on that console feel redundant. I don't play exclusively for trophies, but in games I like, I usually like to put in the extra hours to mop up the trophies, and give myself an excuse to play those games some more. And I guess, it would be like losing a treasured photo album or something like that.

Wait... a second... Ah!

I've just noticed that there is a 'Tanis' and a 'Tails' that I'm speaking to here. That's got me really mixed up! It appears that I've committed yet another technological blunder - hopefully it should be obvious where my praise was intended to go! And it appears to have reached the ears of the intended receiver (Tails), despite my error. So, sorry about that.

Yours sincerely,
Wyrkolaz.

GTA 5 Online

Top Fun 2 is an insane mission haha

Edit: Soul Calibur 3

I really like that you can make certain choices that will affect the outcome.

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow, Mirror of Fate (now there's a well thought out title...)

Being a portable game, this is more of a traditional Metroidvania kind of game than the original Lords of Shadow. Its a bit subdued and it feels... I don't know, just a bit drab really. There's a really sullen, joyless mood about the game, which might be appropriate, but its kind of off putting as well. But its had its moments so far, and at least it feels like a proper Castlevania game.

Oh, and I finished Fire Emblem: Awakening. It got better, but it never really kicked into second gear for me. It kept feeling like it was going to open up and be a much more interesting and involved game at any moment, yet never quite got there.

Phantasy Star Portable 2 and Phantasy Star Universe.

Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days

Trying to get the settings right on my PSP emulator.
XD

experienced most of the content in The Stanley Parable this week. been playing Doom, World of Warcraft, and Bionic Commando Rearmed lately

silent hill shattered memories, wii

Just finished Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask after letting it sit for months. Put in The Last Specter for some bonus content and noticed a few unfinished puzzles so I took care of them.

Then put in The Unwound Future to see if there was anything unfinished and noticed a second saved game. At some point I must have decided to replay it on a new save file so now I'm playing that.

But I may also start Monster Tale. Played a bit of it when I first purchased it and really enjoyed it. The gameplay reminded me of the NDS Castlevania games.

Finished Final Episode for Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep, only fought Terranort with Aqua...dang that battle was rather frustrating.

Play Europa Universalis IV they said.
It would be fun they said.
You won't lose yourself in it like you did GalCiv2 they said.

It's 1:30am and I started playing the game at 8pm.
Holy balls!

I'm not a huge fan of technology either.

I don't see what the big fuss is over imacs and ipads.

I do know a few things about installing pirated games though on a psp though, as i did it once.

I'm currently playing fallout new vegas blood money expansion.

Oh yeah:My ps3 is not being used at all, because i simply can't find a better hdd disc, and i have to keep deleting achievements because my console is like over 5 years old, and the only hdd disk i found was on ebay, and it sold out already.

I was considering buying Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask (Mask of Miracle sounded way cooler IMO), but I think I'll just wait for Azran Legacy, then buy both and marathon them over the christmas period.

Oh, and I just downloaded Ace Attorney 5. The new look and voice acting takes some getting used to. Too early to say anything much (I haven't even finished the first case yet), but there are reasons to be hopeful and reasons to be wary at the moment. About all I can is that its... different.

Dead Money is a pretty cool expansion for New Vegas. Kind of an experimental, survival horrorish vibe. Has one of my favourite Fallout characters in it too - Dean Domino, aka The Biggest Jerk Ever.

Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy

Dog is a good character too.Very psychotic and strange.Remember that the guy has 3 personalities and one of them is god and is a lot smarter and he uses a bear trap to keep the personality hidden by inflicting pain on himself? He's absolutely nuts.


Elijah is also absolutely nuts too.

Pok�mon Y. This is pretty much the first real Pok�mon game I've played since I've only played the N64 games and Channel. My friends on FFR kept pestering me to get it, so I finally gave in and got it. I like the RPG element already.

Doom 2: Hell on Earth with the custom wad "Doom Vercetti".
It is an insanely fun mod to use because it adds lots of stuff without breaking the game too much.

Final Fantasy XIV A Realm Reborn and Mass Effect 3 on PS3

Gonna play Medal of Honor(2010) some time in the morning.

As for Battlefield 4 and Call of Duty: Ghosts, I can't wait for both of them.

I'm gonna cry if something happens to Riley in COD: Ghosts since I have a dog and I love her so much. :c

Final Fantasy XIV A Realm Reborn and Mass Effect 3 on PS3

How are they? any fun? I heard bad things about ME3, like the ending being absolutely terrible.

How are they? any fun? I heard bad things about ME3, like the ending being absolutely terrible.

Final Fantasy XIV A Realm Reborn is a fun game and thoroughly enjoying myself with it. Being able to create your own character and journey in a FF game is pretty fun and you make friends with a lot of people as it's a MMO.

Mass Effect 3... I've had many a discussion about this with fellow forum members (mainly Vrykolas), and 99% of the game is great, especially the Citadel dlc. However the originally released ending wasn't well received at all... even some have said that the Extended Cut Ending which gives another ending, was just a 'bandage' on a weeping wound. Personally, I didn't like either of the new endings, but I never bothered with the whole 'Retake ME3' movement which sprung up.

However, I do wish BioWare did keep their promise of 16 different endings, taking into account ALL of your decisions from the three ME games helping to determine which ending you get. Hell... the original script for ME3 was leaked in November 2011, 5 months before ME3's release... so Casey Hudson and Mac Walters came up with what they call a 'Artistic and Philosophical' ending. Others call it a weak ass bullshit ending.

Myself... honestly, don't care. I treat the Citadel DLC ending as THE ending of ME3... even working on my own ME fanfic and while it isn't a 'official ending'... it'll be one which'll be satisfactory for me.

And I still maintain that ME3 is absolutely not 99% fine. But neither is it a bad game. For the record, my opinion of the series is:

Mass Effect 1.
Awesome, and still the best. Has a different tone to the other 2, being a hard sci-fi game, instead of the pulpy 'Adventures in Space' that the other 2 became. Being hard sci-fi, it is the most realistic of the 3, and deals with some interesting concepts of xenophobia and discrimination that the other games dropped almost completely (because it made people uncomfortable). Also the only game to properly address the idea of religion (human religion anyway -alien religion is fine, because it isn't real and doesn't get you in trouble with anyone) and tested the boundaries on whether you should be allowed to show sex in games, both of which the other games again dropped in order to play it safer. It isn't the prettiest or the smoothest handling, but it is the deepest and most convincing game of the series. The others go too far in their power trip 'You're an intergalactic space spy!' wish fulfillment. Basically, just listen to the naive gushing of a callow young crew member you meet right at the start of ME1 (who dies very shortly after, when real life kicks in), and you'll know the ways in which the series later went wrong (or at least how it changed anyway).

Mass Effect 2
Going purely on production values and accessibility, this is the best made game of the three, and the most polished and complete experience. A more comic book adventure feel than the first game, it almost completely abandons the core story, in favour of a tenuously related (though still fun in its own right) alien abductions story. Its a very fun 'Dirty Dozen of Assembled Avengers led by James Bond in Space' experience, but it is very, very different to ME1. Also handles the continuity of choices and well, continuity in general from the first game's universe, very badly. Also feels very 'safe', as all the traces of xenophobia are essentially written out and/or glossed over (Turians and Humans seem absolutely fine with each other all of a sudden, the more xenophobic characters are kicked to the kerb, such as Executor Pallin who isn't in 2 and is confirmed dead in 3, Pressly is killed in the intro, Ashley has 1 small cameo and a fairly small role in 3 as well, Terra Firma are never mentioned again as far as I can remember, and despite Cerberus supposedly being pro-human, there are no examples of anti-alien behaviour from them in either 2 or 3). There are reasons for this, but it adds up to Bioware and EA airbrushing important issues out of the series, to appease censors and widen the game's appeal. The game also tones down the sex and violence, which was never gratuitous and had artistic merit.

Mass Effect 3
An okayish final installment, that felt very rushed to me. Straddles an uncomfortable line of not having many places to explore or quests to do (there is only 1 hub area and only 3 proper side quests in the whole game if you don't buy DLC - the rest of it being the multiplayer maps repurposed to be quick 'Kill the enemies for a while' XP exercises), and still managing to feel so business as usual, that it feels like the huge galaxy consuming war isn't actually happening at all. Shepard is relentlessly shilled as the greatest person ever at everything, and can solve any and all galactic problems in just a few hours. Add in that after all the hype and build up, the Reapers are uncharismatic and incredibly boring enemies, and the infamously bad ending... And yet, its still a fairly good game, and all these downsides are things I never expected the game to get right anyway. Best summed up as 'It'll do'.

So in short, the series could have stopped at ME1, and I'd have been just as happy. Better yet, it could have continued the series in the same manner, and made proper sequels. I'm not begrudging people the right to own and play the sequels, and ME2 is a great game that absolutely should exist. But by ME3, the main story is a joke that doesn't matter anymore, and definitely wasn't executed well.

Devil May Cry(PS2)

One of the games I loved playing when I was a kid, and I'm sucking at it at certain points all because I played the game on easy automatic as a kid. Depressing.

I beat Pokemon Y earlier today... er yesterday. Great game. It really brought back my love for Pokemon again which I didn't expect. I think I like it more now since I wasn't into RPG style games back then in the late 90s-early 2000s, but now that I'm older I like RPG games now. I didn't know a lot of the new generation Pokemon, but now there's some I really like now. So now I have some new team members I'm trying to level up to par with my current ones.

Still playing my first playthrough of Kingdom Hearts Final Mix. (darn grinding for synthesis materials so I can make ultima weapon.)

I hate those dang sniper wilds with a passion...they hurt...ouch, but I need to kill them to get Power Stone.

Phantasy Star Portable 2.

Currently Theme Hospital, Heroes of Might and Magic III, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Mortal Kombat for PSV.

Finally beat World of Chaos in Kingdom Hearts: Final Mix...it's so tempting to continue to level up and get that get Sora to Level 100 trophy.

Not exactly playing, but I watched some Youtube translation of Ace Attorney Investigations 2. Fair play to the guy for translating the whole thing, even to the point of examining everything and presenting evidence to get all the passive reactions and banter. As for the game... it was okay. The first 2 cases are excellent, but the last 3 were a bit disappointing.

As for my own Ace Attorney playing, I finished Dual Destinies (a while ago now actually). It was really fun and was probably the most consistently exciting and enjoyable of the series, but that came at quite a heavy price in terms of emotional depth. It has its moments, but it felt much more shallow than the earlier games. I had a great time with it (particularly cases 1, 3 and 4), but I hope any future AA games will have a little more 'meat on the bone' in terms of story and powerful emotion. Because this one was just a little too lightweight in its tone for my liking. I wasn't much for the new prosecutor either - he's not bad, but he's no Edgeworth or Godot.

Finally got my Summoner to 50 and have all Summoner Artifact Armor in Final Fantasy XIV A Realm Reborn. Taking a break now, to play Battlefield 4.

A Walk In The Dark

It's kind of cool, actually, it's just a little TOO unforgiving in the controls/jump department.

I'm doing Kingdom Hearts: RE:CoM now. (The rest of KH:FM can wait)

Got my platinum on Dragon's Crown. Finishing off Mushroom Wars and Journey now, and then starting on Hotline Miami.

Call of Duty Ghosts on Xbox 360. Really enjoying the SP campaign.

I can wait for COD Ghosts since it's coming out on next-gen consoles(personally, I'd play it on the Xbox One)

Mass Effect 3(2nd playthrough)

I was given it as a gift, so I can't really say no. TBH, I probably will end up getting it again on Xbox One... eventually when the price has dropped.

Dynasty Warriors 7: Empires

Currently raising my banner as Liu Bei. I'm actually surprised(so far)that the officer AI is actually able to handle themselves. I checked in my officer(Zong Bao)and he didn't take much damage, hasn't requested help, and actually captured a base on his own. FINALLY, NO MORE BABYSITTING! :D

That's definately the best Empires game to date and I'm hoping the 8th will be out next year (same with the Xtreme Legends pack for DW8 as well).

Final Fantasy XIII-2. Beat it already but my brother hasnt, so we're playing it together. Noticing new stuff this time around, it's fun.

still losing myself in pokemon x y, collecting shinies

Kingdom Hearts: Re:Chain of Memories

At floor 13 at level 69. (I got there pretty much with only Attack cards and Potion/Hi-Potion cards)

Dynasty Warriors 7: Empires again.

This game is full of surprises. I mean, before my invasion began, a cutscene triggered due to the friendship level on one of my officers(and it was a custom character made by another player). This really feels like a complete overhaul of the previous installments and I'm loving it. Dynasty Warriors 8: Empires. Please, make it happen, Omega Force.

Edit: This is also the first DW game I've played with the fastest load times ever.

That reminds me that I need to import that game sometime soon.

Civ 5: Brave New World

Kingdom Hearts: Re:Chain of Memories Reverse/Rebirth
(Riku's Story)

Disgaea D2: A Brighter Darkness.

Already Platinumed the game, just continuing the grind the take on the ultimate Terror, Tyrant Overlord Baal. I'm getting somewhat close now...

Got myself Ocarina of Time 3D, time to relive some of my child hood.

Currently playing Star Wars The Old Republic and I'm enjoying it a lot. Started as a Sith Warrior and even though I'm only on Korriban, the amount of political backstabbing and such is thick. Can't wait to see what happens next.

Xbox 360: Still have Dynasty Warriors 8 in the tray (or maybe I took it out)

PS3: On floor B7F in Riku's story (Kingdom Hearts Re:CoM - Reverse/Rebirth)

Been on a Platinum Games kick. Just got through playing Vanquish on Hard (that last fight was no joke, I tell you...) and what an awesome game it was. I remembered liking it, but its just superb, raging action from start to finish. Its criminal that this game wasn't a hit.

So after that, I moved onto Bayonetta. Another great action game, but I find it really hard to care about the character of Bayonetta herself. Still, it really is an excellent beat em up, and I love the look of the enemies in this game. Just wish there was an alternative to playing as Bayonetta really - I wouldn't mind playing through as Luka, grappling hooking my way about...

And after that, I'll probably throw on Metal Gear: Revengeance. I'm not a Metal Gear Solid fan, and I really don't care about that universe really, but to my great surprise, Revengeance is one of my favourite games of this year. It might be controversial to say so, but I prefer Raidan to Solid Snake as a hero. I'm not a sneaking, stealthy kind of guy - I'm a full blooded action kind of fellow! And the whole child soldier, killer persona inside Raidan is very interesting - although Quinton Flynn's voice acting is distractingly awful. Looking forward to playing it again though.

His voice acting's very good in MGS 2, MGS 3 Substance, and MGS 4. I never really understood why his voice acting(and the rest of the cast)in Revengeance was criticized, personally. Usually, you have to blame the voice director for not giving them proper direction.

As for Bayonetta, I loved her personality, despite not having a whole lot of backstory.

Finally got back to Mass Effect 3's multiplayer after waiting for the problems with Xbox Live to go away. I don't know what's going on with Microsoft's servers.

Edit: Aaand, just when I was about to get on, I get disconnected.

He's alright when he's just his usual self, but when he goes into the 'Ripper' persona, it sounds really bad IMO. Which is a shame, because its a very interesting idea, and the story does some pretty bold things with it (how many heroes resolve a hostage situation with a child, by cutting through the kid to kill the kidnapper? He is sorry for doing it, and makes amends, but damn... that's one hardcore hero).

As for Bayonetta, I don't exactly *dislike* her, but I find it really hard to engage with characters who seem so utterly invincible all the time. The game itself is pretty tough at times (for me anyway), but in the cutscenes, I rarely ever felt like Bayonetta was ever even remotely in any actual danger, or was even slightly worried about what was happening (compared to the gamer, who's probably sweating bullets when the various enormous bosses show up). Characters like her and Dante from Devil May Cry just kind of bore me - I prefer a more fallible hero, who doesn't also land perfectly on their feet after a million foot dive, or who actually feels tired and hurt after taking a beating or being in a demanding fight.

Whereas characters like Dante and Bayonetta just shrug off a punishing encounter mostly all the time, someone like Sam from Vanquish will lie on the floor where he was just thrown violently by a massive explosion, and will take a few moments to get his breath back, and even light up a cigarette to just take some time out. Stuff like that humanises characters, and makes seem less like unstoppable, video game gods who cannot fail.

I, uh, tried the new X Rebirth.

Nope. Nope. Nope.

I get what they were trying to do, but they did it badly.

Since I can't sleep, I'm going to play BULLY: Scholarship Edition(360)

Also, it was actually a problem with my wireless connection on my console, not with the Xbox Live servers. I feel like an idiot. >_<

Sitting here with no power nor running water. Not driving to work in the mess outside so I'm going to play a game of Last Window: The Secret of Cape West.

Thinking about collecting some dialogue from the game and posting it on my tumblr.

Just finished Reverse/Rebirth in KH Re:CoM, but then I realized I jumped the gun collecting the key to reward room rewards...so I lost out on some valuable cards for my card collection on Sora's side.

Super Mario All-Stars + Super Mario World - Might play through all 5 games. I'm really trying to kill time until Friday when Super Mario 3D World comes out, which is the game I've been really dying to play heh.

Still playing Star Wars The Old Republic, but as a Smuggler. Loving it, the GUI is good and the tone of some missions play out how you would expect for a Smuggler: Flippant with comedic undertones (usually on the part of the NPC's lol).

Leveling up various characters to LV.100 in One Piece: Pirate Warriors II. I just finished with New World Nami; it was tough. My next choices are between Garp, Eneru, and maybe Robin.

Finished Bayonetta and it was nowhere near as hard as I remembered (though not an easy game by any means). I still got lots of stone trophies (i.e the lowest rank), but I did much better than the last time I played. I'd like to think its because of me getting better at the game by learning how to play it properly, and not because I was just totally, utterly rubbish the first time.

Taking a bit of a breather before I dive into Revengeance. Vanquish and Bayonetta back to back is a seriously draining (but fun) experience. Too much time spent playing laid back RPGs at a gentle pace, I suppose. I feel like I should be warming up with a jog before playing games like these!

GTA V all the way :P

Dynasty Warriors 8 (Xbox 360) and Dynasty Warriors 7 (PS3)

As much as I like Kingdom Hearts I'm not gonna spend a whole year playing it to get to whatever point for Trophies.

I'm playing that Call Of Duty Ghosts trying to level up in extinction. Going solo like a boss.

Blazed my way through Revengeance. Its a bit simplistic (linear levels, parry and counter being your only real combat move), but its still a very fine game indeed. If I remember rightly, Platinum were only called in late in the development when Kojima realized he knew nothing about making action games, so I guess that explains a lot. Still a highly entertaining game that whilst short, is long enough to satisfy your actions needs, without wearing out its welcome. The story is mercifully free of hour long cutscenes too, and the story manages to be engaging without going on forever and ever and ever.

And that last boss fight was something else... I thought I'd won when I took down the Metal Gear, but then the Senator turns out to be from the Mike Hagger school of politics (i.e a massively muscle bound powerhouse brute of a man). Actually it was like fighting Mike Hagger on rage pills, and I took a sensational pounding. Finally managed to loosen up and relax enough to play properly, and managed to do it quite easily in the end. Final boss nerves - the bane of gamers everywhere...

But yeah, Platinum Games - they sure do make them some mighty fine action games.

Finished Mass Effect 3 and chose "Control" with Extended Cut.

I actually love that ending, it really gave me a sense of accomplishment. Kinda saddens me that Shepard's story is over, but hey, it will be a trilogy I will always hold dear to my heart.

Now I want to play the entire trilogy for the 3rd time lol, but not too soon. I'll get to them on harder difficulties.

Super Mario 3D World - I just beat world 1. I love this game already! I love how many SMB2 references there are too heh.

Now get S rank on all chapters on Revengeance mode! It's not as hard as one might think. :)

Hah, well you can forget that! :D

I've never been one for trying to get S ranks in games like this. It usually means you have to rush through levels, wasting absolutely no time, and only ever executing the perfect move for the situation to avoid taking any damage at all etc etc. Which is all fine and well for those that want to, but for me that kind of playing feels really lifeless and boils the game down to simple score attack.

If it was the 'olden days' and I was playing in my local sweaty arcades for the privilege of having your initials at the top of the scoreboard on the big coin-op of the day, then sure I was as game as anyone to give things like this a go (you're talking to a *God* of Sunset Riders!). But at home, I just think 'What's the point?' Just so I can get an achievement?

Don't get me wrong - I've been known to go out of my way for some achievements, but I usually draw the line at Insanity/Legendary/Non-Stop Infinity Climax modes. Its just too much effort, playing in a way I don't enjoy, for no real reward worth having IMO.

Dynasty Warriors 8

Finally back on the Xbox, but as soon as I finish with as much as possible of that it's back on the PS3 to play Dynasty Warriors 7.

I like 8's replacement for Conquest Mode I'm almost done with that building thingy. I also like the fact they upgraded the Ally system to include NPC officers (though you can't take them in battle with you).

Still playing Phantasy Star Portable 2.

I'm also doing walkthroughs of Kingdom Hearts: Re:Chain of Memories and Phantasy Star Universe: Ambition of the Illuminus.

Finished Journey and Mushroom Wars (except DLC which I am not getting), and got my platinum on Hotline Miami. I'm still amazed it had a platinum considering how increadibly short the game is. Really fun though, and a nice soundtrack. Started playing Hoard again with a friend, so I'm going to get the last trophy for it, as well as finish Resident Evil 5 DLC on Professional.
I also finished the two main campaigns, and the first expansion campaign of Heroes of Might and Magic II, so three more shorter campaigns left before I start on HOMM III.

Still playing Dynasty Warriors 8.

I have advice for those who play...in ambition mode save after every battle (getting the animals and achievements for certain number of battles)...just in case one either battles or loads into a white screen of nothingness. It happened to me twice so far. I wish they'd patch that gosh darn white screen of nothing...it's annoying.

On a positive note: I got the building thingy in ambition mode done. To get a gold star weapon and gold panda and that darned achievement.

The disc version of DuckTales: Remastered finally arrived today, so I'm going to play that first of all. \o/
Loved the game on NES, so I hope this one can live up to it.

Finally finished the hypothetical route in Jin's story mode in Dynasty Warriors 8...now for Wei. (Wooooo...just trying to do it perfectly levels your officers up rather fast)

All my officers in Jin are level 30+ except Guo Huai who is lvl29. (The special thing about lvl 30 is that it unlocks general voices and probably a wallpaper.)

twilight princess

Metro: Last Light.
A game that really feels Russian, in that its incredibly bleak. Seriously, this is one world that you would not want to live in - fortunate, considering that if you were a citizen of Metro, you probably wouldn't live for very long anyway. Between lethal radiation preventing anyone from going to the surface, mutants creatures trying to eat them and the fact that they're trapped in a community which features both the Nazis *and* the Communists... I don't know what the Russian word for 'totally screwed' is, but I imagine it gets used a whole lot.

Fortunately though, I like bleak. And it isn't a case of everyone in the world being horrible villains. Mostly, the people are a pretty decent who help each other out, so the game actually ends up feeling strangely uplifting at times. These people are about as screwed as you could possibly be, but they carry on anyway. I guess Russians are used to this sort of thing, with all the tyrants they've had over the years. So basically its a mix of 'Life's cheap' with 'Life find a way, through thick and thin'.

The game itself... is okay. The gunplay is nothing to write home about, and the survival mechanics are adequate but not too involved really. There is some stealth (lots of it actually), but its really easy and you don't *have* to do it, if you'd rather just cut loose. The gameplay and story rarely rise above 'acceptable', but the unique Russian feel and atmosphere makes up for it. Its pretty much the definition of 'Its better than it sounds'. Its just a shooter, but its a Russian shooter, and that somehow makes it more interesting.

Still Phantasy Star Portable 2. Fun game!

I played some Dynasty Warriors Online earlier...seems like they fixed some problems. (*coff*game crashing without explaining why when trying to start a new battle*coff*) Seems like they updated the servers or something.

Saints Row 4: Enter the Dominatrix...

... waste of $10AUSD for the Season Pass imo. The content made absolutely no sense whatsoever and when compared to similar DLC in Saints Row 2 (even the three for Saints Row The Third actually had some merit as they tied in to the main story), completely weak and lacklustre. I have little hope that the second (and thankfully FINAL) DLC for Saints Row 4, entitled "How the Saints Saved Christmas" will do anything at all to make me think this game is worth being apart of the Saints Row series. Find out on December 11th... and that's only IF Australia gets it at the same time as the rest of the world.

Dynasty Warriors 7 (PS3) on Wu's story. I can now easily say that story mode in Dynasty Warriors 8 is a whole lot better than 7's.

Finished Shenmue II recently. Currently on Deus Ex: Human Revolution - Director's Cut(360)

About Shenmue II, I heard that the bad ending in Shenmue II was considered canon by SEGA. I'm willing to bet that it isn't true, but for anyone that knows anything Shenmue, please tell me if it it's true or not.

Been a while that I have come to this forum. I myself have been playing Crashofield 4, thankfully I can play a few rounds before a server randomly crashes or my game decides to crash, gotta love DICEA!. Any one here playing BF4 on the PC?.

Hey, Bender! Good to see you again.

DMC: Devil May Cry

Random facebook games.

Metal Gear Rising: Revengance(360)

Loving this game. It reeks of bad-ass.

Beat Super Mario 3D World... twice actually heh. It is an awesome game, definitely one of my favorite Mario games ever, but it's also one of the easiest unfortunately. I collected everything and beat all levels with all 5 characters and some levels are way too short. It's awesome to see Super Mario Bros. 2 back in the 21st century though, and it has the best music ever made in a Mario game and has the most variety in levels and playable characters for sure. Couldn't have made a better sequel to 3D Land.

So now going to play Metroid Prime Trilogy (starting with Prime 1 obviously) since I haven't played a Metroid game in a while.

MGR again. I finished Blade Wolf's story, but gave up on Jetstream Sam. I can't adapt to him and the difficulty feels like it's too hard despite it being on normal. I got to Senator Armstrong, but that was where I gave up. :/

Finished Ducktales on Extreme, which wasn't very extreme at all. The hardest part was finishing the game without it freezing, resulting in having to restart from the beginning.
Also finished both Resident Evil 5 DLC on Professional. Lost in Nightmares was really easy, but my god, Desperate Escape was the real nightmare. I think I had to replay the last part on the roof at least 100 times due to the AI either dying, or not helping at all. Sadly I can't shoot in front of me and behind me at the same time. Worst. AI. Ever.
If only my friend actually played the games he bought on PS3, instead of being hooked on Dust 514 all day long. Bastard.

Started on Terraria now that it was on sale though, and I expect to be stuck with that for a long while. It's just too much fun to put down! :)

MAG, getting as many trophies as i can.
dark souls, going to coop the entire game with a friend al the way to ng7.
the conduit, among other wii games.
pokemon diamond
fallout 3 again, felt like making a new character and go around killing and pillaging to my hearts content.
nuketown looks like a ghost town.

White Knight Chronicles, Army of Two The Devil's Cartel and Final Fantasy XIV A Realm Reborn on my PS3, while playing Skyrim on Xbox 360.

Rouge Warrior(360)

The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds (3DS)

Good game so far--the walk through the walls mechanic takes a little getting used to
