I'm currently rolling through Kirby's Return to Dreamland and Metroid Prime Trilogy.

Zero Escape Dilemma.

It was pretty good, but it did occasionally feel like it had been written by a bunch of people who were scientists (or science enthusiasts) first and writers second. Don't get me wrong, it done pretty well but I prefer a plot that isn't as heavily reliant on the kind of special gimmick powers that the characters have. It felt like it kind of took over the story, shunting the Escape Room aspect and many of the character's development to one side IMO.

Still, it was enjoyable enough. I preferred Danganronpa and Stein's Gate though, which are both games with similar themes.

Currently playing through Star Ocean: Till The End Of Time on Universe difficulty. Still on the first disc.

7 Days to Die.

Finally getting some clay and other things.
Random zombie raids at any time of the day. 3 houses got wrecked and then re-inforced.
Got 2 layers of spikes all around each house.

Finally found a place with 3 floors.

Back to Ninja Gaiden Sigma. Learning how to block properly. Jeez...

Continuing a bit Career Mode in NBA2K16. Also started ZOMBI on Normal difficulty, fingers crossed for another bug/glitch-free playthrough.

Slowly unlocking all the Classes in Story mode,
can't wait to get to the Power-leveling State of the Game...

Played Dying Light for a bit, then managed to slightly improve my Bloody Palace Record with Vergil in DEVIL MAY CRY 4 Special Edition ().

Alternating between:

Wii U
Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE
Xenoblade Chronicles X

PS4
Star Ocean Integrity and Faithlessness
Grand Kingdom

3DS XL
Fire Emblem Fates Revelations

GalCiv3

MOO (BETA)

Made it to post-game on Star Ocean: Till the End of Time on Universe difficulty. Now the real fun begins.

Played and completed Uncharted 4. Having played both the first and second entry in the series, I think 4 marks yet another case of more of the same, only prettier-looking.

Finished True Crime: New York City(Xbox), Gundam Battle Assault 2, Syphon Filter 3, and FINALLY, Ninja Gaiden: Black. Very happy to get that out of my backlog, because it was a frustrating grind around Chapter 12 and up. I hope Ninja Gaiden 2 will be better(by better, I mean less frustrating. Probably wrong, though. :/ ).

The phantom fish can fuck right off.

Playing Xenoblade Chronicles X, but mostly playing Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE. TMS is awesome and disregard any naysayers that complain about censorship!

Hear hear! Seriously talking, who cares if some minor details are censored...

Playing Gal*Gun Double Peace and it's crappy as heck, but I still play it... :D

Playing Gal*Gun Double Peace and it's crappy as heck...

Good Soundtrack, 'tho.

Good Soundtrack, 'tho.

It's one of those games with bad gameplay but good soundtracks. There are lots of others like that.

Still playing Star Ocean Till The End Of Time on Universe difficulty. Recently got the Defeat Luther at Universe at Lv 10 battle trophy and am working on grinding through Sphere 211.

Finished Fire Emblem Fates Revelations... have to say the story for this is far better than for Birthright and Conquest. A lot more detail regarding the motivations of some characters and what's really going on.

Decided to give Valkyria Chronicles Europa Edition a try next.

Just finished Saints Row IV Re-Elected...

Glad I got this off my backlog of games... It was... mediocre at best imo. SR2 is still the best of the series. This was just too far ott for me to take it seriously and the story was garbage...

Still, it's done and can more onto another from my backlog...

^I take it 'Gat outa Hell' wasn't one you liked either?

For me it's 3, 2, 4, Gat, haven't played the first One.

I hated Gat out of Hell because it's basically just Side Missions.

@Tanis : nope... that was just superfluous nonsense.

@ManRay : SRTT was ok... better than IV for me... but as someone who has played all 4 games...

SR2 > SR1 > SRTT >SRIV

SR 1 was a decent enough game. Had it's faults, but it introduced us to the world of the Saints as well as some of it's key figures (namely Johnny Gat and the 'Boss'). I'm not a fan of recommending online game reviews... but the following two I do agree with:

Saints Row 2 : SAINTS ROW 2 (Zero Punctuation) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWXuzZ26yp0)

Saints Row The Third : Saints Row: The Third Angry Review (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHB0CQ3uPj4)

So yeah... I am a Saints Row fan... but just like what happened with the Breath of Fire series (The 5th killed it completely for me), Saints Row IV Re-Elected/Gat out of Hell has pretty much killed the series for me. IF... there is a Saints Row V, I hope they go back to the series roots and not completely ott.

I can dig it.

I've enjoyed every SR game except for the first one, which I found to be as boring as GTA4.

I think 3 and Gat are my favorites.

Making a list of mods to install to SKYRIM when I get home.
They've made a new ENB that looks even sexier than RealVision...

Fully completed the Universe playthrough in Star Ocean: Till The End Of Time. Don't think I'm gonna do a 4-D playthrough, though.

Replaying Alundra! Man, the Italian translation was funny (in an awesome kind of way, I'm serious), but the English version doesn't seem too bad, either.



If that's what awaits me… I'm cool with it. Make me chuckle, forgotten PlayStation game, you owe me for all the hours you had me waste.

Grand Theft Auto Episodes From Liberty City.

Not really a game but I was idling on the Bioware forums and noticed they plan to shut all of them down very soon. The place was a minefield, but it still feels like a really depressing decision. It feels like its planting an extra nail in the coffin, that feeling that Bioware are just over.

Monster Hunter Generations

@vrykolakas : I read an article (http://www.pcgamesn.com/mass-effect-andromeda/bioware-shutting-down-official-forums-august-26) about that. Not surprised tbh... though the reason they gave is rather... meh....

@ topic : Played some Borderlands 2 (Handsome collection) and The Technomancer... they're... ok. Borderlands 2 has some fun moments, but I guess I'm more of a military shooter gamer than this. The Technomancer is interesting, but inundated with 'fetch' quests and the character designs for the NPC's, while some are well done, others are... lacking...

Gone back to inFAMOUS Second Son and tearing up Seattle with Delsin. I've got the platinum for this game and finished both the Light and Dark paths... but damn, I just love playing it.

Enjoying "treasure-hunting" in Uncharted 4 a lot more than the actual plot, collected 95/109 treasures.

EDIT:
And done. All treasures collected, completed the game at "Crushing" difficulty… With 70% Aim. Not too bad, all things considered. Time to move onto the rest of collectibles. Oh, yeah, beaten the record in the Crash Bandicoot "portion" of the game, too.

EDIT #2:
Done with the speedrun trophy. That was close.

EDIT #3:
Done with Uncharted 4 -> Screen ().

Elite Dangerous.

Although it hasn't been the same since the Skynet AI has been removed.

Destroy All Humans For PS2.

Alien Isolation :)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1hi9QmxAllQ

Played that new Batman game from Telltale. Its pretty good in the way their games usually are, has bad QTE sequences that go on too long as they always do, and is episodic forcing me to wait probably not less than 5 months to see how it ends. Which frankly is getting *very* old. Just finish the damn game and *then* release it!

But yeah, I'm in. It was interesting, had lots of variety, and it made me care enough that I wanted to see more. Can't really ask for more in a first episode.

Fairy Fencer F Advent Dark Force. Graphical improvement over the PS3 version and there's more story branches, sidequests etc. Having 6 people in your party instead of 3 makes things more interesting, specially with some of these boss fights (I'm playing on the new HELL difficulty... hard as fuck, but fun).

Disgaea 4 on the Vita. Had to start over since I swapped my original vita for a slim one since I don't have wifi on it while I'm out of town for a month.

DMC Devil May Cry

Finished Lethal Skies 2(it was ok, it wasn't any better than the first one), Beatdown: Fists of Vengeance(rather fun beat-em up but frustrating at times), Dynasty Warriors Gundam 3.

DW G 3's a nice entry, but it's not as good as the first one imo(it's better than DW G 2, though. There was no story whatsoever). I didn't like how grindy it got when it came to getting the "For Reform" chapter, and I didn't like how some of the story missions felt like filler. I've only played a few minutes of DW G: Reborn and I can already tell it's better than DW G 3(Plus, space battles are back! :D I thought it was odd that they took them out entirely).

I'm in the mood for some Ace Combat, starting with 4(I haven't touched the REAL AC 3, because the Disc 2 translations aren't finished yet). This is probably like the 4th or 5th time I'm replaying 4 to Assault Horizon. I'll be checking out Skies of Deception as well since I'll be playing them in order of release.

Just finished Alien Isolation. Resisted buying it for ages due to stealth not being my kind of thing. But times are lean and I do love the Alien films, so I gave it a go.

And it was alright, a ruggedly playable and acceptable game even for a stealthphobe like me. Played it on Hard because that's what the menu recommended as the optimum experience and man they aren't kidding - it really *was* hard at times. But when I stopped deluding myself that I'm any good at stealth and started being more aggressive, I got into a nice groove and combatted my way to victory! lol (You can't hurt the alien, but you can scare it off with fire, so I poured all my resources into crafting molotovs and chased the thing over the station, rather than let it do the reverse!)

Its far too long, and the story was a waste of time (not to mention a few promising characters). But overall, it was a fairly rewarding experience. A cautious thumbs up. Now if you'll excuse me, I have molotov cocktails to make...

Finished AC 4 a few hours ago. I decided skip the others and start Ace Combat X: Skies of Deception. Only on the 3rd mission and it's pretty good, so far!

Edit: Just finished AC X. Surprisingly short, but it's pretty cool that you can tackle missions in a different order. Kind of like in the first and second Ace Combat.

Finished Gone Home.

It was okay, but I do wonder how much of the appeal would have been lost on me without the Twin Peaks style music, the haunted house and retro feel (Cassette tapes and VHS tapes etc). It had a rather steep price for how short it was, and the writing sometimes strayed dangerously close to melodramatic cliche (and the plot in general is extremely cliched).

But that said, it was engaging enough that I cared to find out what happened. For all the many criticisms I could level against it, I still thought it provided a reasonably upbeat and defiant message about the need to be who you are and do what makes you happy. So overall, I'm glad I played it at last. I just wish they'd been a bit more lenient on the price, because you can complete this game comfortably inside a hour or so (and its actually possible to finish it in under a minute, but that's speedrunning obviously).

Started World of Warcraft as a Draenei Mage. Have to admit, I do like the music for the starting area (Azuremist Isle) and I am enjoying myself so far. Convinced to get the Battlechest now and get into it... as FFXIV has gone stale big time. Hopefully with patch 4.0 coming either end of this year/beginning of next may bring me back, but with how my Free Company has gotten... yeah, I'll take a break from Hydalen and journey in Azeroth for awhile.

Finished Cold Fear yesterday and a few others part of my backlog.

Going to play Medal of Honor(PS1), Medal of Honor: Underground(PS1), Medal of Honor: Frontline(PS2), and Medal of Honor: Rising Sun(Xbox) since I never finished them.

Going to play Medal of Honor(PS1), Medal of Honor: Underground(PS1), Medal of Honor: Frontline(PS2), and Medal of Honor: Rising Sun(Xbox) since I never finished them.

Nice!

Currently playing the Vita version of Hot Shots Golf: World Invitational. Had it platinumed 4 years ago but didn't exactly sync all my trophies to the network, so I'm doin it again. Just got all stars and crowns so now focusing on points. Much easier than the PS3 version.

Finished the 3 Medal of Honor games. Really good. The first two are the best ones, but the later two are also good.

Think I'll try the Ni-Oh beta.

Edit: Apparently, the beta doesn't detect you have the Mark of Conqueror if you beaten the Ni-Oh alpha(like I did.) Guess I'll wait until the problem somehow gets fixed.

Thought about getting the new Deus Ex game, but with sweltering heat and oppressive sunshine glaring through the window, it doesn't seem like the right time of year to be playing a cyberpunk stealth actioner. I will buy it, but I think I'll wait a month or two for the seasons to change.

Dug out my 360 instead and I'm playing Bayonetta and Vanquish - much more appropriate for this time of year, and awesome games to boot! :D

Been playing almost non-stop on Disgaea 3 Vita. There's not too much else I have to do for platinum.

Romance of the Three Kingdoms XIII

A.O.T. Wings of Freedom or Shingeki no Kyojin for Vita. Awesome game! ...but online is kinda quiet for now. I would love to play it with some people! Give me a holler if you want!

Platinumed Disgaea 3's Vita version. Now started on Conception II.

Worms W.M.D.

Well, I played the Ni-Oh beta, and got the Mark of the Strong(Or Warrior). That 2nd boss was a BITCH to fight(and the boss itself is literally a bitch as well)! I also checked out the Muneshige side mission, and decided not to bother since he's way, way too hard.

No Man's Sky(PS4)

Edit: Well, I don't think I'll be playing NMS any further, especially after learning what happens when you reach the center of the galaxy. It's not that bad of a game, but it's very lacking and it gets rather dull the more you go on.

Picked up Hatsune Miku: Project Diva X yesterday for the Vita and I've been playin it almost non-stop. Really enjoyin the game.

Platinum on Disgaea 3? That must have taken like... a million hours of playing :) Gongrats!

Playing A.O.T. on Vita and re-playing Final Fantasy XIII-2 with PS3... because for me that game is a true gem!

The vita version is a lot easier to platinum than the PS3 version. Only took me just over 2 weeks.

Still playing Hatsune Miku: Project Diva X. Saw the credits earlier today. Also playing a unique realistic game of trying to survive the hurricane as I sleep tonite.

Front Mission Evolved on PS3

Front Mission Evolved on PS3
Better than expected, at least to me.

Damn! It seems that the optimization of Verdun is through the roof! I was just getting near 60 FPS while on ultra settings, whilst around April (when I purchased my current GPU), I was getting much lower of the same settings.

Hopefully it wasn't only because of that the server had 3 players.

EDIT: "Through the roof" was a bit of an over-exaggeration, but I mean to say it is much better, and smoother, than it was before.

Better than expected, at least to me.

It's... different... I played the first Front Mission (which Evolved is a remake of) via SNES Emulator and that was a great SRPG. This... It's not bad. Has it's faults, but overall not bad. Still no Front Mission 3

Secret of Mana

Happily platinumed Criminal Girls: Invite Only. Now started on Sword Art Online: Lost Song.

Resident Evil 2 in my PS3, I'm about to start the 4th Survivor and the the Extreme Battle mode.

Ended up having camera problems with Sword Art, so that's no more. Went back to Hot Shots Golf: World Invitational for the Vita. The road to platinum continues.

DMC 4. XBOX 360.

Star Trek Online

More of DMC4.

Just platinumed Hot Shots Golf: World Invitational for the Vita and sync'ed my trophies this time. Picking up on Shovel Knight again.

dragon quest 4 on ds.
FF tactics on psp
rebel galaxy on ps4
fallout new vegas 360
eternal darkness
mario galaxy, now that i finally bought it.

Shovel Knight proved too difficult to platinum so gave that up. Tried Corpse Party Blood Drive, but that game has too much story and not enough action, so I returned that and got Muramasa Rebirth but haven't played it yet because I've been busy with Disgaea 4.

Purchased again METAL GEAR SOLID Ⅴ: THE PHANTOM PAIN for PlayStation 4 a few weeks ago and dedicated myself to it (I originally played it on the PS3); managed to earn S Rank(s) in all 50 Missions on the “current gen.” version, strangely, I couldn't do it on the PS3.

The [EXTREME] version of “Metallic Archaea” was an unexpected and real nightmare, this time around: back when I had first earned S Rank on it (PS3), I climbed on the roof of the hangar which is close to Snake’s starting point, the Skulls just attempted to shoot and throw rocks at me back then. I unlock that mission on the PS4, ready to use the same strategy, imagine the look on my face when I see a Skull teleporting up there and standing between me and my trusty guardian angel, Quiet (needless to say, I ended being “one-slash killed” by the Machete, ‘cause I seriously remained slack-jawed, I blame game’s updates!).
Luckily, the roof of what I’ll call main/central building of that airport is still rather safe, went there on my second try and the Skulls left me alone, just a single one followed me, but he was killed by Quiet rather fast… Waited a few more minutes for her to finish the other three off… PERFECT HEALTH, NO KILLS Bonus, sigh.
Something to counter balance that crappy luck: I earned S Rank on [EXTREME] “Code Talker” on my first try, on the PS3 one of those weirdly sexy, borg-like female snipers is always waiting for me when I finish climbing near the waterfall, 100% safe route my ass.

Super Mario 3D World, glad I finally have it, I wanted it for so long and having so much fun with it. :D

Platinumed on KH 1.5 Remix. Got the "I Read You Like a Book" achievement for DMC. And back to DMC4 for the time being.

Muramasa Rebirth was a pretty decent game. I beat one of the stories and that was it for me. A little too much fighting for me. Went back to Disgaea 4.

Resident Evil 2 in my PS3, I'm about to start the 4th Survivor and the the Extreme Battle mode.

Whoa! Kudos to ya! It's been a long time I don't give it a try

TMNT (2016)

super mario galaxy, i finally own it

Bought X-Com 2 today and spent most of the day screaming with rage at the outrageous toughness of it all. My guys just seem utterly inept, routinely missing enemies who are literally right next to them. Meanwhile the aliens casually pwn all my guys across all kinds of intervening terrain from miles away.

I like X-Com, have done since the old days when it first came out. Loved the remake, but this game... its really trying my patience. Its crazy how much harder it is, right from the get go. Maybe I'll get used to it, but for now its feeling like its too punishing to be any fun.

Still playing Disgaea 4's vita version. It's a long road to platinum.

Mirror's Edge (GOG):
FUCK YOU, STEAM!

I've been really focused on finishing Warriors Orochi 3: Ultimate(Xbone)since I've been putting it off. Plus, I felt it wouldn't be right of me to play other Musou games while still neglecting to finish this one. I've finally finished all the chapters, all the side missions, and have only one more officer to unlock by completing Gauntlet Mode.

I've had some horrible luck with Gauntlet Mode before, but I started a new game(I didn't get far anyway)with a new team that consists of Kyubi, Guo Jia, Zhuge Dan, Kaguya, and Susano'o instead. I also got Kyubi's mystic weapon after learning how to get it which will definitely help me make progress in Gauntlet Mode. It's a good thing I focused on Story Mode and unlocked her, she's pretty OP based on my experience with her lol.

Edit: Finally got Hundun, the last officer.

I just recently got started on Divinity Original Sin. The enhanced version. I'm liking it so far alot.

I'm going to see if I can finish Panzer Dragoon since I've never been able to finish it as a kid. I don't have a Sega Saturn anymore, so whatever Saturn games I have will be played on the SSF emulator

Edit: Well, I finished it, but I had to switch to easy because of how terrible I was doing on normal :p

Some good ol' Call of Duty (2003) multiplayer.

Rogue Wizards on Steam.

Still on Disgaea 4's Vita version. Getting farther to platinum, although it stills feels way out of reach.

Pretty much done with MGS: THE PHANTOM PAIN; just waiting for the Nuke to be developed, then I'll hopefully dismantle it before some FOB players could snatch it, earn the last two hidden bronze trophies and the platinum (on PS4, thanks to one of the most recent firmware updates, you can select a hidden trophy and press Square to reveal what it is about... That feature came just at the right time).

EDIT:
And done.

gran turismo on psp.
i know, shocking. me? playing a sim? what madness is this?
just felt like it

I played a bit of Witcher 3 which I just bought last week. Pretty nice but don't know if I like the combat yet.

Took a break from Disgaea 4 to start on Criminal Girls 2 that came out what is now yesterday. It's very enjoyable so far. Already past the Cell Block area.

Paper Mario: Color T̶h̶r̶a̶s̶h̶ Splash

Just... Why? Why?! WHY?!
I tried to be fair to this game, but the more I dug into it the more flaws I found in its structure, presentation and gameplay. For all its so-called �improvements� over Sticker Star's dreadful changes, it's still an empty experience all around. It's pretty much cookie-cutter kitsch like the rest of the Mario brand these days.

First Star Fox Zero, then Metroid Prime: Federation Force, and now this... 2016 is just a baaaad year for a long-time Nintendo player. LOZ: Breath of the Wild better be mind-bending or else I'll be jumping ship to Sony again.

Grand Theft Auto V... again. Just felt the urge to do some senseless violence and blow shit up.

I sold my Vita stuff, and I really wanted to like the game I was playing, but I don't feel like chipping off a dungeon boss' HP for half an hour while it kills my team. So went back to Final Fantasy Tactics to continue the grind fest and finished Chapter 3.

^All of it?
Weird...I'm getting a bigger memory card, now that the system has been hacked.

Don't get me wrong, I'm still buying some games for it...but now I can FINALLY play some Japanese games I've wanted to play for years.

Yeah. I played all I wanted to play. I wanted to take advantage of the extra cash deal Gamestop had going on, so I got more than I would normally get.

Pok�mon X

Finished Rise of the Tomb Raider and thoroughly enjoyed it. Never liked the original TR series, but this and the 2013 reboot, I do like.

Now... deciding whether to play the 2013 Tomb Raider or go back to Mafia III...

The Elder Scrolls Online.
Pay once and play as long as you keep your Xbox Live Gold subscription active.

Although, they do offer premium content like extra storage for crafting. But that costs $17.99 (CDN) a month for ESO PLUS subscription.
Other bonuses like minor boosts to your character and 10% extra XP per kill.

It's still quite enjoyable without the PLUS membership.

The Premium Store to buy mounts and vanity items costs real money.
Real money turns into "Crowns" which is the game currency to buy from the "Crown Store" for Mounts and vanity items.
Some of it looks worthwhile.
There's a Cave Bear mount I want. And demonic horse.
The pets are pure vanity as they don't do anything for you. But there's a monster I want that looks like it's right out of Pacific Rim.

Try the anniversary edition of the first Tomb Raider game.
Completely revamped and a different beast than the original.
They used the same engine as the last generation of PS2 Tomb Raider games or something. Legend or something.

Looking for a copy of The Tomb Raider Trilogy (Tomb Raider Legend, Tomb Raider Anniversary and Tomb Raider Underworld). Probably be something like how I was with FFIX and GTAV... hated both of them when they first came out, yet went back to them some time later and enjoyed them (Obviously GTAV I like way more than FFIX... guess I must have latent sociopathic homicidal urges...>.<), so I'm hoping I get the same feel when I play these TR games.

On Topic : Had a few friends begging me to join them for a few raids in FFXIV... Might play some Sleeping Dogs Definitive Edition after.

Civ6

Just finished Final Fantasy Tactics again. Been a real long time since I finished another full playthrough, though.

Tomb Raider Definitive Edition PS4

Time & Eternity (PS3)

RWBY Grimm Eclipse

I know it doesn't count as playing but... been drolling over some P5 videos... nostalgia...

Anyway, finally tried Akumajou Dracula X - Gekka no Yasoukyoku (or SotN for the closest ones). Maria is beating my ass that cute bitch!

:treasurehunter:

Installed the new MAME Version, just completed Metal Slug X, now i am playing Metal Slug 3.

Those two are my favourites in the Series, damn good Games !

MISSION COMPLETE !

Still Pok�mon X, already got fifth badge, that's the farthest I've ever gotten in a Pok�mon game ever.

Been doin another playthrough of the original Kingdom Hearts II on PS2. Over halfway through the game.

7 Days to Die on Xbox One.

We've made it to about day 63 so far. Still alive and kicking.
I died quite a few times already. Damn spikes are super effective. :laugh:
We've upgraded nearly the entire house to concrete and upgraded the doors to vaults and then those twice to their maximum levels.
My repairs and block damage is maxed out so I do most of the repairs and tree chopping and mining.
I really want to get my archery up as I use that the most. So much cheaper and faster to find feathers for arrows than it is hunting down every last bit of nitrate.
I also need to work on my armor smithing as my character overheats the most from swinging the steel tools all the time.
Miscellaneous crafting is also maxed out so I make all the traps and fences and barbwire.
My crafting speed is maxed so I really do all the misc. stuff around.

I've grown akin to the Sledgehammer as a blunt weapon.
It's so beautiful and satisfying when you get a headshot or hit one of the limbs just right.

We're almost at the point were we're maxed out our skills and ready to up the zombie spawn to double.

DCM4:
It's been so long since I last played this game that it's almost new again.

My dear friend recently gifted me METAL GEAR SOLID Ⅴ: GROUND ZEROES - The mission which gives the game part of its title is, in my opinion, better than 97% of THE PHANTOM PAIN… I miss the ability to "knock on stuff", though, distracting enemies with that noise is an integral part of my approach to stealth in both past METAL GEAR SOLID entries and "TPP", finding it a bit hard to adapt to its absence. At least I get to wear again the awesome-looking Sneaking Suit from PEACE WALKER (nothing against the standard TPP S. Suit, but that's just a slightly bulkier version of the one from MGS1), among other things.

Also downloaded Everybody's Gone to the Rapture (one of the free games of this month for PS Plus subscribers): a strange game, don't have much to say about it, apart that I'm liking its "BGM" a lot.

Call of Duty Infinite Warfare SP...

Rather enjoying this campaign. It's better than Black Ops III's campaign.

Call of Duty Infinite Warfare SP...

Rather enjoying this campaign. It's better than Black Ops III's campaign.

The campaign is great, I'd say it was just as great as COD 4's campaign. Glad to know you're enjoying it. The multiplayer is rather fun, too, it feels like a better version BLOPS 3's multiplayer.

Been going in between different games, and right now I'm focusing on Uncharted 2 via the Nathan Drake Collection.

The campaign is great, I'd say it was just as great as COD 4's campaign. Glad to know you're enjoying it. The multiplayer is rather fun, too, it feels like a better version BLOPS 3's multiplayer.

Haven't touched the MP yet... wanted to get the SP done first. Just finished the SP and yeah, I agree with your assessment. Definitely one of the better SP campaigns around with some damn good characters (Gator, Salt, E3N (he was my favorite)) and the story was pretty damn good I thought. Glad I got this tbh. Then the credits hit you in the feels when the posthumous recorded messages of some of the deceased play.

Peace to the Fallen.

Now... to either go into the MP side or give Modern Warfare Remastered a shot.

Woot for that!

Finally platinumed in GoW. Speed of Jason MacDonald went in one sitting and I could've done in less than 4 hours if I knew the game upside down.

Now on my path to GoW II's platinum. On God Mode.

Total War: Empire

Stardew Valley.

I got it a couple months ago from the Humble Bundle monthly program.

I decided to play it last night and I've been addicted to it ever since.

Metriod Prime Trilogy: CE
<3

Started to give a try to "FOB MISSIONS" on MGSⅤ:TPP and I personally think that those are more Metal Gear Solidish than the whole METAL GEAR ONLINE 3, a crappy Call of Duty rip-off in third-person, that, or the players just don't play it in a stealthy way.

Finally giving Bayonetta 1 & 2 a go. Always heard things so I'm curious to try them out.

I started up Darksiders last week for PC. I know I'm a little late with it but it's pretty cool. Maybe try the sequel sometime but everybody seems to think the first game is better.

Finally giving Bayonetta 1 & 2 a go. Always heard things so I'm curious to try them out.

Bayonetta is soo much fun. One of the best games ever made, imo. I don't know about Bayonetta 2, because I don't have Wii U :(.

Been focusing on Assassin's Creed: Syndicate since I've been putting it off. I'm actually liking it more than Unity(Unity was good, but I think it could've been better).

Pok�mon Sun

Still on THE PHANTOM PAIN, just seven nukes stolen from players, sadly; I must say dismantlement is unfair, it happens instantly, a player needs between 20-24 "real world" hours to build a nuke and a lot of time has to be spent collecting (and processing) the amount of resources needed for it, first. I feel like a dick, even though I shouldn't. Will focus on improving my Espionage rank for a while.

ARK: Survival Evolved on Xbox One with friends.

Just the vanilla game.
No expansions, they're not really worth it.

The game has a lot of limitations as it is, and since its' really Early Access on Steam, they're focusing on new content only.

Jacked up settings to make things easier since the defaults make it too severe.
So many raptors and carnies right off the bat.

Odin Sphere: L

So...fucking....pretty.

Watch_Dogs 2... so far, a big improvement over the first

Going to start Anno 1404.
I played it once a long time ago and really enjoyed it for the little time I had.

Stardew Valley definitely has its charms, but once you get a system going for money and get married before Year 2 ends, replay value slows down.
The game doesn't have an end or a final year. So you can play forever.

Wow, playing Anno 1404 AD, makes Banished seem unnecessary.

Years before Banished on Steam.

With ships that are more interactive than just a dock in Banished.

Pokemon Moon

Busying myself with getting a bunch of Nameplates in THE PHANTOM PAIN, will buy the latest FINAL FANTASY in a few days, going to enjoy its glitches.

4th mission for Anno 1404.

Kept forgetting the game doesn't save when you exit.
You must command the save separately before exiting. :rolleyes:

Spent long on the third mission and figured out how things work.
The starting money really helps out a lot.

This mission, I started off a lot better and slowly growing a net income.

I wish this had a function like in Stronghold where you can raise taxes and allow more food to keep them sated.

Being so early in the game, I see that the Citizen class prefers to have spices.
Where there are none, there is nothing more I can do to make a profit.

KH 2.5 Remix

several wii games:

calling
red steel
the godfather
snegoku basara 3
samurai warriors 3
trauma team
dead space extraction - paused to post this while on the bathroom
RE UC

Right now, Sun along with Guilty Gear and BlazBlue.

Will start Last Guardian this weekend

EDF 4.1

Back on Age of Wonders III.

I forgot how fast you have to move to gain a foothood early on in the game.
Setting a strong presense in some territories buy you a lot of time that you can build superior armies.

Otherwise, the enemy moves in faster to overwhelm you.

:shock: It crashed on me and didn't save the progress!!

Just finished Watch_Dogs 2 and I have to say, had a absolute blast with this. Enjoyed everything, the story, characters (The Wrench is my favorite), the minigames... everything. Very glad I decided to get this, after how bad the first one was.

Now deciding on what to play next... Valkyria Chronicles Remastered Europa Edition, Bravely Default or Grand Kingdom...

The Last Guardian

Replaying Wind Waker HD. Last time I played it was 3-4 years ago.
Unfortunately I still remember a lot of the puzzles and such. :-\
It seems a bit more linear than others I've played before.

A mix of:
The Last Guardian
Divinity Enhanced Edition
Earth Defense Force 4.1

The Last Guardian

Was it worth the 7-year wait? As in, does it look like seven years worth of toil went into it?

Going to install Age of Empires 2 HD again.
They got a DLC coming out in a week.
I'm so glad these really old games are getting, have gotten, DLC.

Real classic RTS games. Endless hours of fun (and farming).

Back to Mass Effect on harder difficulties. And sorta in a trial and error quest with the Renegade style.

Friends got me Grand Theft Auto V for Xbox One.

It really sucks. Rockstar is just a downer of a company.
I tried Red Dead Redemption, and all these games do is make you run the opposite side of the map for nothing.

San Andreas was fun. And that's where Rockstar should have closed down.

Dragon Age Inquisition:
Better, so far, than the first two.

I finally finished FF X(a few weeks ago) and finished FF X-2 yesterday(although, I only managed to finish it with Cat Nip after finding out about it...don't judge me :p )

Going to do an Elusive Target mission on HITMAN(2016) and then play FF XIII after putting it off for years.

Sleeping Dogs Definitive Edition

Something about attacking mooks with a meat cleaver appeals to me.

The Technomancer. It's quite interesting.

Playing 'Let it Die' and still runnin around in 'Episode Duscae' until i get FFXV tomorrow.... can't wait

Now I'm done with Wind Waker and moving on to Minish Cap, my first 2D Zelda.
You can tell I'm not very adventurous in my game choice. :-P

So far Ezlo is on par with Midna as a favorite companion of mine. Snarky, sassy, but smart nonetheless. Far better than Navi or *shudder* Fi.
Having played all the 3D Zeldas, it's fun to see so many of the sprites being modeled after characters from Wind Waker and Majora's Mask. A nice easter egg for veteran players.
Exploration is also a lot more rewarding here than in the 3D Zelda games.

playing Mad Max again.

I want to get further into the game where I can do more stuff.

Shantae (the original Game Boy Color game)

Dark Souls (the 1st) 2nd journey. Not so tough as I expected. Kinda "opening the paths". I beat Quelaag with Maneater Mildred's (isn't she the fiercest friend phantom or what!?) help but haven't rung the bell yet XD

I love poisoned swamps

Finally got FFXV so i'ma go lock myself away with that *grin!!*

So Mad Max on Steam has some mods out there.
Increase reoslution to 4K and stuff. But no real info if it makes it look any better.

One about "no hud" if that's your thing.
And one to increase contrast and saturation to extreme limits with a modder's note to decrease gamma. The effect is supposed to make it look like Fury Road.

Not much support outside of that.

It would be nice if there was a mod that lets you stock melee weapons in your vehicle.
Or if that happens later on. It's still early in the game.

But looking for mod showcasing on youtube, those are the only ones.
A lot of mods for GTAV that let you have a Mad Max tanker to bomb around in.

:sad: I really want to drive a truck and sound the horn just like in the movie.

They ought to make a Burnout game in the same nature as Mad Max for the extremists.
1 truck, 5 guards, 10 attackers. 50 mile stretch highway like in The Matrix Reloaded.

FFX HD Remastered on PC / Steam.

With SSD, no loading times.
Although, that doesn't make the storyline go any faster.
There's still minutes of silence between lines like the actors are all stoned or something.

Arx Fatalis. Yeah, a few years late but just bought it on the cheap.

Medal of Honor: Allied Assault Breakthrough, Italy - Monte Cassino II

Played a bit of Shovel Knight and Sound Shapes on my new PS4. Staying up a bit longer to try out the Disgaea 5 demo before I head to sleep.

Because of the Alien: Covenant trailer, I've just started playing Aliens: Colonial Marines.
Most of the bugs should be fixed.

I've found some mods that add to it, so I'll add those soon and compare gameplay.

Most of the bugs are fixed for Aliens: Colonial Marines.

I've not spotted a single dancing alien yet. :/
I was actually hoping for it. :laugh:

I'm about half way through the game.

And I actually got scared at a couple points.

They really know how to set up the atmosphere for the game.
Walking around the movie set for Aliens with the music creeping up on you and the aliens being as dark as the room, it really adds up.

It's quite easy to die in the game.
And it's not that easy to pull of a finishing move when one of them get up close to you for melee attacks.
There's one move that happens if you time it right: You grab their head, pull out your pistol and shove it in their mouth.

I'm not sure if that finishing move is performed on timing or if it's random.
I haven't found the right condition for it, and I'd rather not experiment with it. :laugh: Each time you die, a little piece of you dies inside.

So far, not picking up a whole lot that ties the movies together.
A lot of references to the second movie.
And I guess you really get to learn about Weyland-Yutani partnership that leads to part 3.

The graphics are nice. The dark lighting helps a lot.

And I've been playing with ChromaDepth 3D (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ChromaDepth) glasses so that has really created a new aspect to the horror atmosphere.

Technically, Chromadepth isn't designed for straight passive conversion like 3D TV's do.
They're mainly for neon and black light events/images. They're much more effective that way.
80's music videos, etc.

But, using a thicker lense, they can be suitable for movies for a very different experience.

There is also the issue of seeing rainbowing off to the sides.
You have to play with the light levels in the room to minimize that.
And eventually get used to them to the point you don't even notice them anymore.

Dragon Age Ultimate Edition.

Been playing Disgaea 5 whenever I can. Started over, but with good reason. Currently on Chapter 2.

Was casually gaming on the older systems (NES and Sega Genesis) but haven't gotten to play much recently. Siblings got a PS4 for Christmas, so might give it a shot and try out Uncharted 4.

Tried the Brunswick Pro Bowling game on PS4. That turned out to be absolute garbage. Now playing Omega Quintet for the first time.

Resident Evil Revelations 2. Raid mode really could be its own game. It reminds me of an old dungeon crawler, which brings back a lot of nostalgia.

Battlefield 1

Exceptional game. The realism is immense, and so is the gameplay.

You bet. Amazing stuff in a middle of a good-but-not-great post-modern RE.

---------- Post added at 08:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:22 AM ----------

DMC 4 DMD mode... not as brutal as DMC 3 DMD mode, but still f***ing hard!

Got overwhelmed by all the stuff Omega Quintet just throws at ya, so that's gone. Also got overwhelmed trying to platinum Shovel Knight. Game's a pain in the arise, dood. Started on Atelier Sophie last nite.

AC4BF (PS4)

Final Fantasy XIV A Realm Reborn. Working on a few classes to get to level 60 before Tales of Berseria comes out at the end of the month. Also the odd Gun Game in Call of Duty Infinite Warfare.

Starting out my first FF game ever, FF VI. Played for only a little bit; I just introduced Terra to the Figaro king.
I'm easing myself in and not getting too caught up in manipulating stats quite yet.

Back to Persona 4 again (as I won't be getting P5 now, reliving this great game is enough!)

Finally finished Final Fantasy XIII a few hours ago. Pretty good! I really enjoyed it. The beginning was pretty slow, but it started picking up nicely around Chapter 5(or 6, maybe 7).

Got started on FF XIII-2 and already things are picking up lol. I think I might like this as much as the first one. I'll get to it later, though.

Went back to Disgaea 5 for awhile. Finished Episode 3 and unlocked the Item World. Been grinding too.

Finally forced myself to finish The Witcher 3, so I can at least say I got my money's worth out of it. I will never understand the love for this series. And the controls man... the stuff of nightmares.

And now I enter my meditative trance, awaiting the release of Persona 5...

...

...

Is it out yet?

Decided to try the first Watch_Dogs, as I haven't played it since I bought it (yeah... my backlog is a 'little big'). From what I've played, I do NOT like it one bit. The driving, shooting mechanics are horrible. The story is average at best, the music is mediocre and Aiden Pearce... ugh... I can understand why this got such a bad rep, glad that Watch_Dogs 2 is so much better in every department.

So, went to start on Plague Inc. on Steam... see how that is.

To me, it wasn't bad, it just could've been so much more. As for the music, I actually liked it(I'm not sure if you're referring to the OST or the licensed music. Some of the licensed music was good, too).

Finishing up Need for Speed: Carbon(360)since I never finished it.

Edit: Finished NFS: Carbon last week and just today finished Ninja Gaiden 2...on Acolyte since the boss on chapter 3 pissed me off on Warrior. Sadly, the rest of the game wasn't any better, especially on Acolyte. Just a pure torture fest. That, and the camera is somehow worse in this compared to the first one. At least I got it out of my backlog, but man, it wasn't fun to play.

Time to play something that doesn't get my blood boiling lol.

Really? This one has been sittitng on my shelf (untouched) for a while and after playing the first NG (I didn't finish...) and getting brutally beaten almost all the time, I wonder if it's for me... I hate when my blood also boils while playing these so-unbelievably-hard games... : /

---------- Post added at 04:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:30 PM ----------

Trying Catherine every now and then. Going for some easy achievements...

Disgaea 5 & Master of Orion

Still playing Disgaea 5 myself. Had reached post-game and working on getting innocents and ultimately platinum.

almost every game on my ps3, now that i have it working againg after almost a year.

right now: alternating between dead space and siren blood curse before plus runs out and i lose the siren rental.

That would be a very vast library including PSN only games. Just saying...

Just started to give Overwatch a go for the first time. Refreshing change of pace!

Korra & Dark Cloud 2 (PSN)

Going for Dead Space 2 platinum. I just need the "Hard to the Core" and I'm golden!

That would be a very vast library including PSN only games. Just saying...

43 physical games, like 12 digitals that i actively play (excluding games that are online only and dead, like gotham impostors).

I was talkin more about the entire library.

Resident Evil 7.

Feels like a odd hybrid of RE Revelations 1, 7th Guest and Forbidden Siren.

At my girlfriend's insistence, giving Dragon Age Inquisition another try... still not a fan of the whole game though.

Only 43?
:P
#netswag
XD


Okay, but, seriously?
I forgot how fucking GOOD Dark Cloud 2 was.

Just started RESIDENT EVII biohazard, even after barely 20 minutes I can say it feels more like RE than the three RE4, RE5 and RE6 combined (actually, let's put the two REVELATIONS spin-off with them, too).

Welcome back, CAPCOM and welcome back, RESIDENT EVIL. I missed ya for thirteen years.

Still on Disgaea 5. Very deep in post-game now. Unlocked the carnage dimension and am working on maxing sub classes.

Finished RE7. Short, easy and really not much to it... So its a modern video game basically.

Dark Cloud 2

Just tried out the entirety of the demo for Tales of Beseria. It was pretty good. I may want this game.

The 'Tales' series is usually pretty solid, so I'm in the same boat as you.

I'll just wait for it to come down in price a bit.

I've already got a growing backlog of PS4 games...and I've only had the damn thing since Black Friday.
XD

I heard Zestiria was a big letdown though. "The God Clad In Chaos & Calamity" became a top 40 BGM song when I first heard it, though.

I kind of went off the Tales games, precisely because they are solid. They all offer generally decent RPG exploration and combat, quirky characters, great skits and banter etc. But they all kind of blend together for me and feel like basically the same game. Vesperia was the only truly great one IMO, and even that just did the same old things - it just did them all particularly well.

Still, its not like they're bad games or anything. I think solid is an appropriate description of them. My translation of that would be 'Acceptable, if you're really hurting for a new game, there's nothing else out and if you feel in the mood for it'.

Neverwinter Nights 2 Complete for PC. Got it on sale recently and just gave it a go.

Working on getting my Monk to 60 in FFXIVARR.

Been mixing up between Shovel Knight and Disgaea 5. In Shovel Knight, I was somehow able to get the new game plus trophy which is one of the hardest trophies to get. The other is the speed run trophy, which is to beat the game in an hour an a half from start to finish. It is the last trophy I need to platinum the game. In Disgaea 5, I've been training my units in post-game to get strong enough to tackle the Carnage Dimension.

Almost 4 hours later, I manage to get the platinum trophy for Shovel Knight. Now I can focus on Disgaea 5.

Not sure whether I should tackle Madhouse difficulty right away in RE7, or break/"collect" Mr. Everywhere dolls, first. Aside from that, it has been a pretty good RE for me, nice survival horror, it lost a bit of appeal in the last two "segments".
I didn't find its soundtrack memorable, sadly, though I sure dig the vocal track; I'll have to get myself the album with just the arrangements of "Go Tell Aunt Rhody", too.

EDIT:
Thanks to a friend I've got myself a copy of that "Go Tell Aunt Rhody" CD, it shipped this morning, just have to wait for it to reach my place.

oh, so the song was not just a promo song? its actually in the game? TO THE DOWNLOADS SECTION *cue batman 60's scene transition jingle*


also, just finished dead space, after weeks of grueling horrors. so now i just opened my 3-year shrinkwrapped copy of dead space 2 LE and..... it wont install extraction. i have it on wii but come on.

Back to Castlevania SotN on Saturn with a to-do list: get Crissaegrim and Heaven Sword.

Maybe it "expired"? When I purchased a used DS 3 LE copy days ago it came with the codes (suprisingly) untouched. I know, DS Extraction doesn't need a code.

equip both rings of arcana (or whatever their real names are) to more easily farm the crissaegrim.


and no, it doesnt need a code, and the online pass code of ds2 wasnt needed, since passes are now free.

the problem is im the only one i know that still owns a ps3, so i dont know where to take the game to see if its my lens or the disc itself.
i wonder if EA would give me a replacement disc of the LE, because the normal edition doesnt have it and im NOT paying for it on psn

the online pass code of ds2 wasn't needed, since passes are now free.

Free? How come I could never play the multiplayer of DS 2? When I try, it directs me to a screen, but then I can't get it using the PSN... anyway, I heard it's not worth the trouble...

I feel like I'm far from platinum even though I have 5 trophies left in Disgaea 5.

the problem is im the only one i know that still owns a ps3, so i dont know where to take the game to see if its my lens or the disc itself.

"the only one I know that still owns a ps3" Haha! Mine once "burned" because of a bad use of the reset button. Came back from repair with memory doubled and sometimes I notice little freezing here and there, nothing major. Not an expert talking but maybe it's the copy the problem. In 6 years of PS3 the only trouble I had with it was unsync sound / sfx plus ridiculously long loading times during the "burning" period until it stopped working.
After that, pure bliss : D

Been playing randomly a Play Store bullet hell inspired title called Thunder Assault.

Managed to platinum Disgaea 5. Traded that and Atelier Sophie to get the new Star Ocean. Will play it later.

Just finished Fire Emblem Awakening with a Male "Robin". Enjoyed the whole game.

Now, playing Fire Emblem Fates Revelations while waiting for For Honor to finish update download.

Got rid of Star Ocean for The Last Guardian, but the complex puzzles were too much for me, so I got rid of that for Tales of Zestiria that I now just started.

Doing GoW I and II in the hardest modes (well, in fact only the first; about the 2nd I've heard that Titan Mode is nightmarish)

Current progress: GoW - Minotaur boss (God mode, the hardest one);
GoW II - Euryale (God mode, not the hardest)

Fallout 4

bayonetta, wii u

Trying harder on Parasite Eve. Don't know why I found it hard years ago...

Zestiria turned out to be boring, so I had Pinball Arcade in its place. Was lots of fun but returned that too and used all my credit on a pre-order, so nothing now. Only so much I could do in pinball without having to pay for additional tables.

the dracula x chronicles on psp.

Night in the Woods on PS4, I love it.
DARK SOULS III on PS4, I love it. Believe or not, I have never leveled up in any game over 99, but in DSIII my chara is over 9000!! ...not. Level 121.

A little of Rockman Complete Works 1 and 2.

Playing through Shantae: Half-Genie Hero. Interesting game. Soundtrack was composed by the guy who did the legendary Ducktales Remastered and Shovel Knight soundtracks. Not as legendary, but I haven't heard the whole soundtrack yet.

Finished Nioh. For all the hysteria about it being 'harder than Dark Souls', it was nothing of the sort (not that Dark Souls is anywhere near as hard as people make out either, mind you). Anuway, it was a decent game I guess but it was far too easy and WAY too long for an action game, which is essentially what it is.

I'm not some No Damage, No deaths, Lvl 1 only nutcase, but I'm pretty good at these games though I say it myself. Still, I barely died at all in the actual stages (like actually at all, I beat most stages without dying to anything but the boss, which is certainly not what I was expecting). The bosses are all over the place. Some are unreasonably hard, but most are complete pushovers. IMO there are only 4 hard bosses: Hino Enma, Nue, Yuki Onna and Okatsu. The rest I just rolled right over.

Unless we count Sub missions. Tachibana Muneshige's duel and the later duel against him and Honda... Now those *were* hard.

Hey there! So it's nothing like Souls' series? Like it could in the first place!

Hail Traveler! :D

Well it has similarites obviously, but its closer to say Onimusha and Ninja Gaiden than Dark Souls. Nothing wrong with that of course, and Nioh is a good game with great combat. But it doesn't have that... mystique that Souls has. The bizarre eccentric characters, the understated but fascinating lore and the melancholy fading world that you can burst back into life at the end etc.

Nioh is much more straightforward in its plot and actually has a half decent one at that, yet the actual storytelling is dreadful and extremely hard to follow. Big Irish dude who is so intensly a man of few words that he makes Gordon Freeman seem like a chatterbox, lots of demons, and a whole job lot of very similar looking caves and mountain villages etc. It does have one really cool level in a kind of 'House of Ninjas' place, with assassins jumping out from trapdoors in the floors and ceilings, revolving doors and other hi-jinks.

Its a decent game to be sure. Its just too long for the type of game it is, and the stats feel kind of irrelevant. If they'd stripped the stats and grinding out, and edited the game down to a 8-12 hour campaign, let you use all the weapons equally etc, it would have been much improved IMO.

Been playing ARK: Survival Evolved with friends lately. A LOT.

We're still just building our houses a lot.

Got two maps going. One on my xbox and one on my friend's xbox.

We're just harvesting a lot of resources and building big houses.


Quite a bit of dinosaurs trained. But not a lot as I'd like.

Had a good time playing Shantae: Half-Genie. Got all but the speed run trophies that I have no plans of doing.

Good man - Speedrunning is the work of the Devil, sent to this earth to convince players to not enjoy their games and ignore their content. I never saw the appeal of them. They're almost as bad as underwater levels...

I've never seen much worth in speedruns either. I guess it's for players who want to test the limits of a game which they've played through a dozen+ times.

Playing Fire Emblem Awakening again while in transit to places... at home, alternating between Tales of Berseria, Horizon Zero Dawn and modding the Hell out of Skyrim (PC).

Finishing Ocarina of Time 3D while playing Zelda Breath of the Wild.

Fallout 4 and M00

Siren New Translation. A "cat and mouse" game

ACI on ps3
AC 3 on wu
PW JFA on 3ds
FFT on psp

Finished Ocarina of Time 3D, on to something simpler, Kirby: Planet Robobot.
In between when I can, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.

Finished FF XIII-2 yesterday, and Requiem of the Goddess today. Great sequel, imo! The plot was a bit hard to follow at times, but I liked it regardless. Started a little bit of Lightning Returns, but I'll get to it later.

Right now, some Warthunder.

Just started playing Mario Sunshine again, getting ready for the new Mario later this year. Next up is the Galaxy games.
