It's a combination of Brawl, MP3, Half Life 2, and Digital Devil Saga. Other games on the list are Killer7, Chaos Wars *coughs*yeahright*coughs*, and Nocturne for the PS2, with Zack and Wiki and RE4 on the Wii (never had a Game Cube, heard RE4 on the PS2 was bad, and that the RE4 on the Wii was a better port from the GC version). Portable wise, I've gotten into Pokemon again.

I got a huge Christmas list of games I want though, and god knows once I get them it's going to be a headache to beat'em ><

Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion DS.

The 1st playthrue is pretty boring since it's linear, but it gets way better in the 2nd. and even better on the 3rd. There's 3 different story paths in all. And also everything you have at the end of the game carries over via NG+.

Be sure to get the Gurren Kai parts on that island that takes place around ep.17 of the show. Also you can get Gawain a lot sooner in the 2 and up playthrues.

Toadette + Magikruiser is totally saving my life. It's not a fast combo, but being able to compensate my lack of skill with off-road shortcuts is just enough. Shy Guy Beach and Delfino Square were a breeze!

I just did the coolest thing ever on Tooie. I'm using the Super Banjo code because double speed equals crazy delicious, and I got the waterfall Jiggy in Glitter Gulch Mine by simply grabbing the Running Shoes at the start and timing a jump from a nearby platform. I'd have to wait until I had Springy Step Shoes or Clockwork Kazooie normally.

I love this game. :)

Oh man, Banjo-Kazooie & Tooie were so much fun to break like this. owo

Tell me, did you use that same double speed maneuver to get the Jiggy in Jolly Rodger's Lagoon in the alcove under the shop?
Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread
Post by: Da Dood on November 16, 2008, 12:37:19 AM
Hell yeah! :D It's also possible to get that Jiggy without Super Banjo, by exploiting Kazooie solo, her spinning slap move and Turbo Talon Trot.

Still not there on this run, but I'm sure I'll use it. I have 21 Jiggies with only two areas visited.

I abused Super Banjo to get the pillar Jiggy at Mayahem Temple, too, by simply Talon Trot-jumping from the Cheato alcove. :)

Well, so far it's as I suspected it would be.  The reg. Sonic parts are [tornado fang]ing awesome.  The Werehog parts are boring.  It's not that they are bad, per se.  It's just that I don't want to ever play as the Werehog.  I wanna be Sonic running through the levels super fast.  But I only played a little bit before bed last night.  I'll see more later on.

This seems to be the universal summary of Sonic Unleashed 360 excluding some mention of how awesome everything is visually. Honestly, I'm happy at the very least that this game sounds like it's shattering the Sonic Cycle left, right, & center.

Also, Donkey Kong Country 2.

Loco Roco 2 (E) Beta (PSP)
Doukutsu Monogatari/Cave Story (PSP)

Playing those two as well!. The final version of Locoroco2 is already out !, the problem with the beta is that uses the music of the first game and there are plenty of weird translation errors ( for example, i got stuck in this place where i was supossed to hold circle but the game told me to "find an exit" or something random and unrelated like that). Also, there are  parts where random digits appear in a corner of the screen.Oh, and the presentation is different as well.

The good news are that your saves from the beta work well with the final version.



Edit:
Just finished Locoroco2, i feel empty and dead inside.

I'm doing bits of a Resident Evil marathon, starting with RE2 and 3. They're still as great as ever, but after almost two years of classic RE drought, games like Metroid Prime have spoiled me when it comes to load times. Damn door animations! Guess I'll have to get used to 'em again.

Other than that, I'm playing lots and lots of Brawl, growing fond of sword fighters like Marth and Meta Knight. Marth's extra-damage-sword-tip thing rocks.

I've also decided to give Subspace Emissary a second shot, and eh... it's still a little dull and dragging. At least the cutscenes are amusing.

Got rid of a HUGE chunk of games (Chaos Wars for starters, along with Half Life 2 and Metriod Prime 3 and before ANYONE says ANYTHING, I DID in fact play them, the latter of the two at least to the half way point and I just could not stand it. I gave it the best go I could, but I just didn't like it).

All that's left on my PS2 is Killer7 (thank GOD I got past the part I was stuck out), Digital Devil Saga, and then Nocturne (if I cam remember where the hell I'm at in that game ><). As for the Wii, it's just LoZ:TP, Zack and Wiki, and RE4. I'll save LoZ for when I'm done with Ocarina of Time since if I don't like Zelda after that I'm trading TP in (it's the lack of my caring for the series in general, I loved Link to the Past but I'm just not enjoying TP much), and if I can find out how the hell to get past the part that I'm at in RE4, I'll play that. I'm just on break for Z&W though, until I get done with my PS2 games.

When P4 comes out though, that's ALL I'll be playing XD

World of Goo progress:

- World of Goo Corporation: 300

Hang Low OCD was hilarious, I can't believe it took me so long to figure out the method. Ode to the Bridge Builder, however, forced me to peek at a YouTube video because I came too close way too many times and it was getting annoying.

Since I got all 300 Goo possible for the World of Goo Corp. tower, I'll try and build something later.

That's...that's not saying much.

-There's more strategy this time around. (Don't expect EXE levels of strategy though)
-The Kaizou system is not broken and actually involves thinking this time around.
-Bosses are better IMO, but the secret boss is [tornado fang]ing ridiculous. (No flinching, inmune to ANY AND ALL status, WTF WERE THEY THINKING?!)
-Almost every card in the previous 2 games is here.
-I can't decide if the Finalized noises fall under the "normal" broken or "WTF?! WERE THEY THINKING?!" broken. I guess it depends on the level of the Finalized folder you use =/
-The way noise is handled kinda balances the Finalized noises, but it would've been SO much better if they handled it the same way in PvP than in boss battles =/

The sidequests in MM were alright. The rest wasn't too impressive though. The devs loved the idea of the masks way too much, though, like every puzzle involves just using them. Meant you spent like 50% of your time in your inventory switching between them, too.


I liked the passage of time, that was nice.




And um I dunno I'm not playing much right now. I was playing Supreme Commander earlier because some guy I know asked me to but he seems to have given up after about seventeen losses in a row. I dunno how people can be so bad at games, I really don't.

Turns out MegaTen is a pretty nice game, although being my first experience with an MMORPG, I was taken a little aback at how stuff was done and how the controls were handled. Still, a nice experience.



One drawback, though: the game wouldn't let me name my character Shiki. :P

Post by: Da Dood on January 25, 2009, 11:03:05 PM
Personally I don't think Harmony is a good game, at all. :o It's the Metroid formula done wrong. Constant unrewarding backtracking, overly confusing layout, uninteresting weapon upgrades, the worst power-up system in the series... even the controls are iffy because you can't change your direction mid-air after you whip it (whip it good).

Then they had to sacrifice sound quality for some reason and it sounds like early Game Boy. The actual music tracks are great, but it hurts to listen.

But there's some fun with Maxim, and the graphics are pretty I guess...

In all it's my least favorite Metroidvania.

Giving Shin Megami Tensei: Imagine some love. The game, even though it's an MMORPG, has quite a bit of charm. I'll never get used to the weird controls though. >_> Only thing is that like with all online RPGs, some tasks get overly tedious and repetitive, and some monsters tend to get annoyingly uncooperative, especially the goddamn pixie leaders near the beginning of the game.

At the moment I'm playing the following:

Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift (DS)
A really fun tactics game. I loved the Tactics Advance on GBA so this naturally found it's way to my collection and I can say this is definetely the best tactic game for DS handheld so far. Not to forget the amazing soundtrack. I recommend this title to everyone who has even little interest to tactic games.

Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon (DS)
I decided to pick this one up, as my second Fire Emblem game I'm pretty satisfied with it. Although the graphics look old and all that: it's a lot of fun in the end anyway! Have stopped playing it for a while now though.

While the Tactics Advance for GBA might have been childish and little bit TOO slow at times, it was still ton of fun.

Tactics A2 fixed some of the bigger problems and added something new in to the mix without it going worse.

I went to the beach, so I took a break from Majora's Mask. Replayed Mega Man ZX and Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow these past few days.

Did some sequence breaking in Aria of Sorrow. It was okay, but I should have tried harder for a Giant Ghost shield, because the first half of the Death fight was a pain.

As for ZX, wow. Played Hard mode for the first time. Had to finish the nurse's boring side quest for the only Sub-Tank they give us on Hard. No energy bar upgrades either, and since I had no Internet there, I didn't know where to find the various food items, the quick charge chip or the invincibility extension. It was hell. I did remember the E Tank, though, which saved me countless times.

I killed the final boss with 1px left, after many many retries (actually I only managed to finish the game in the car, on my way back home...).

I hate the exaggerated backtracking in ZX and this time it was no different, but I did learn to appreciate some bosses a lot more. Hurricaune, Lurerre, Prometheus, Pandora and Serpent are brilliant fights.

- Kirby's Dream Land 3

Brotip: KDL3 is a lot different from the other Kirby games. Get either Rick and Spark or Koo and Parasol to take out the armies of enemies that you'll encounter. Also, take your time getting through the stages; the enemy placements and stage design of the game combined with the powers' lack of range REALLY don't like you to zip through stages like you can in Superstar or Adventure.

Besides my current obsession with Shin Megami Tensei Online, I finally managed to get my filthy little hands on a doujin jewel called ElePaper Action (http://www.indiegames.com/blog/2006/01/ele_paper_action.html). Amazing 2D game, albeit I have to admit I can't play the sisters to save my life. :P So far I've gotten as far as level 4 with Yomiko, until the aerial level raped me with bullet hell (in my defense, I was, and still am, half asleep due to recent sleep disorders). I'll go back to it soonish, since the game saves as checkpoints the start of every level, allowing you to continue playing the last level you played or died at. :P

BIG time. You can easily get 3-10k if you place the bets right (and that's per race). The guy is next to the shop lady, and the lower the odds, the higher chance of them winning (so pick about the 2nd or 3rd lowest ones and bet 1000 on them). If you win, save, and keep going. If not, then try about two more times and then reload. Do it right, and you should be able to buy out the entire shop in one fell swoop.

I was getting a lot of money at Stage 5, the boat part, because I kept losing to the four-arm demon and ended up taking down the UFO on the boat shooting mini-game a few times... :D I entered the place with around 10K an left with over 40K.

How did I trigger the fight against the guy with the guitar? That was great. (Awesome DMC3 reference, by the way...)

Also, Azel is so damn hard. I only survived because they only force you through half of the fight...

Yeah, I did some chihuahua races, it's pretty easy.

Now I'm at Stage 6. The Stage 5 boss is very frustrating, but also a lot of fun. There seems to be a trend in this game, that if you reach a boss fight without Roulette icons it'll take approximately forever to end...

Also, I found out the bit about the boat: near the end of Stage 5 you'll have to play a shooting mini-game on the boat. You must use the cannon to sink the other boat that passes by. If you don't destroy it in time, the boat will ambush Gene and you'll have to deal with a crapload of enemies including a four-arm demon. If you can get rid of the ship on the mini-game, you'll jump straight to the boss fight.

Suikoden Tierkreis (NDS)

This game feels as good as the first 2 games on PS1, and it keeps getting more exciting.
It has pre-rendered backgrounds (the kind that PS1 games used, like Final Fantasy and Resident Evil did).
And the 3D characters has those big hands that Cloud does in FF7, but they look better though. ^^
The voice acting fits just well too, and they managed to make the dialogs in a way so that no matter what you named your character or your company, they still find a work-around for that.

One of the better RPGs for the DS. I recommend it. ^^

ORDER (As Megaman):

Coldman, Burnerman, Pirateman, Groundman, Tenguman, Magicman, Astroman, Dynamoman.

By any chance you have an Action Replay DS on you? That seems crazy, because Pokemon doesn't work that way (1 Badge - Lv20 and above will obey, 2 badges - Lv30 and above will obey, 3 badges - Lv40 and above will obey, etc).

They need something 'new' after explorers of sky , without making a million more pokemon , so whynot make a remake of G/S

**** Gold was better then any other pokemon game i played , even better then daimond/pearl/platinum***

Only positive thing about D/P/P is that they have WiFi, plus most of these usually turn out fake, so I don't trust them. And 2010's around the corner (with summer on the way, leading to fall, and back into winter).

Currently playing through Mega Man Battle Network 6 Falzar for the very first time, yeah. I spend years trying to find this game in The Netherlands.

Other than that, I am slowly playing through Okami, taking my time and lastly I have started to play Battletoads on the NES, to see if I can beat it.

Okami is amazing. The ending almost made me cry.

Hahaha just finished X6 in one sitting, 50 minutes. I LOVE this crazy route (also, I'm using the US boss names because they're ridiculous):

1) Shield Sheldon (get D. Barrier, save Zero)
2) Ground Scaravich (get Speedster, unfortunately get Sentsuizan too)
3) Rainy Turtloid (get Ensuizan for High Max)
4) Commander Yammark (get Life Recover, Sub-Tank and Yammar Option)
5) Blaze Heatnix (get Sub-Tank, fight High Max)
6) Gate's Lab
7) I.D.E.A.

Ditched X as soon as I saved Zero.

I need enough Souls for three slots: Speedster, D. Barrier and Life Recover. Got 1612 and saved 69 Reploids.

Had to fight Ground Scaravich because I wanted Speedster and didn't want to die over and over to revisit the level until I got the lucky hologram. E|S|C|A|P|E my anti-drug <3

I haven't played SRW, but unless I'm wrong, seeing as Amuro happens to be a major star of the Gundam universe, he's probably a very good player, or at least a decent unit. The maids, being supporting characters, barely have any attack power, usually needing someone else to bring enemy units down to their knees before the maids can dispatch them. :P

Yes. Tohno should strike the killing attack to Sacchin in at least two of the three battles you fight against her. Once she's unlocked, you can use her permanently, and as far as I'm informed, she also becomes available in the opposite route (same happens to Mech Hisui and the other route), so you'd basically need two whole playthroughs to have both secret characters available in a single game.

Somehow, you need to get Lancer's and Archer's Will up real fast; if you do and can cast their AOE attacks (UBW and, if memory serves, Gae Bolg), they'll clean up with True Assassin and, depending on the angle and location, even some of the Angra Mainyu shadows. But you gotta keep a safe distance to be able to make it to the exit quick enough. Trust me, getting this mastery took me DAYS of planning ahead.

Megaman X via SNES9X GX(Wii)
Playing with my modded Classic controller.

1) Get a Tri-Wing Screwdriver
2) Open Classic Controller
3) Remove screws on L/R Trigger assembly(the part with the slider)
4) Remove Springs
5) Put screws back
6) Set sliders to top most setting
7) Re-assemble upside-down(so the L/R button fall to the highest point)
8) Tighten all screws
9) Enjoy your new Classic Controller sans the weird GCN style resistance to the L/R buttons

PS: Works great for Brawl too.

I rented Sonic Unleashed recently, and I've been playing it finally. I love the daytime stages, they're nice and fast, and play rather well too. The nighttime stages... well... they can go burn in a fire. Some of the platforming segments in there are rendered far more difficult than they have to be because of crappy camera angles we can't control. God I hate Sonic Team's inability to make a proper [tornado fang]ing camera sometimes.

Fun game, but the difficulty curve isn't so much a curve as a mountainous region. I'll go from getting completely pissed off by one minigame to going through another one without any difficulty at all.
Of course, that's just me. Don't know how much you can trust my ability in a rhythm-based game, as I am white after all.

I'd play FF9, but as fun as it was, it did get a bit tedious. I couldn't stand 8 either. I didn't really get the whole junction thing, but I didn't like any of the characters or anything. On a rather interesting note, they apparently gave Selphie underwear when fighting. The camera was turning around in it's usual fashion, and I paused the game for some reason (toilet, mom called, I dunno) and when I came back to the tv, I saw Selphie panties just starin' at me XD

Finished Dante Must Die (no items!), then went ahead and finished Hell and Hell mode in DMC4 (Super characters but no items).

HaH wasn't that difficult, surprisingly, since you land there straight from DMD and the 3-Gold-Orb deal pretty much denies the entire point of the mode. Unsurprisingly, however, it's not fun. Hardest part was M14, the Blitz room followed by the room with all the Chimera-Assaults. NOT cool to die in the second and have to do the first again.

Now I only have Human mode to finish, plus getting the last move for each character and 8 Blue Orb Fragments.

Played some online Brawl with my brother and a friend this afternoon. It was a lot of fun. I used Sonic and surprisingly didn't suck that bad. Won some, lost some.

One thing I noticed about Sonic is that people often misjudge the timing of some of his moves. I frequently landed just over someone's head, and as they tried to counter, I used one of his delayed moves and caught them off guard with the slow start.

Now, back to DMC4. I was working on a full S-Rank screen, got all four S's from M1 to M6 plus M19 and M20. It's a lot easier to do this in this game than DMC3.

Granted I have only 6 stars, but I'm already seeing that Galaxy will not dethrone SM64DS as my favorite 3D Mario if the trends I see now continue.  Music is beautiful, stages are ingenious, but as soon as I get to my first run as Bee Mario, I realize the power-up system is as moronic as Sunshine's.

There's no reason for this, since Nintendo grasps it in 2D, but not in 3D:  YOU SHOULD NOT LOSE OTHERWISE PERMANENT POWER-UPS BETWEEN STAGES.  Nor should you lose ANYTHING from contact with water in a series that throughout its entirety allowed chucking fireballs while submerged.  If Yoshi pulls his Sunshine disappearing act in Galaxy 2, rest assured I will give Miyamoto a boot to the head myself.

Fortunately the game beats the hell out of Sunshine in every other way.  Still, it'll blow if this lagging flaw continues in Galaxy 2.

Oh, it gets better, trust me. I agree about the powerup system though, but still, I don't see Bee Mario being of much use outside of its level (same for Boo). What annoys me the most is Flying Mario being exclusive to the observatory of all freaking places -__-

Touche.

But we'll see if you say the same thing after realizing you have to play the exact same game four times over to unlock the Last Story (not that Shadow was very forgiving either with that final boss fork, but at least there's some decent stage variance).

Never said I wasn't nuts. Anyways, after playing through it, I'll admit it's not rediculously-bad like i.e. Zelda CD-i, just "bad", and is frankly, where things really started going downhill (for the 3D games anyways, I still love Sonic Rush)

It would have also been nice if they hadn't made it the same button as the one used to drop weapons, that's another thing, I find the controls a bit sloppy, and Shadow's running seems really "drunk" at times

Nothing wrong with it. You put regular batteries in it tho.
And there's no backlight, but you can hardmod one, or buy a 1st generation GBA that already has it installed.
Battle Chip Gate looks cooler when you put it on a 1st generation GBA. It will feel like you're holding a PET. On the SP, the screen is kinda in the way. >v<

Okay, now I promise I'm done with the game...

Just finished Ninja Gaiden Sigma on Master Ninja.

Holy hell, that was intense. Most of it actually was pretty much like Very Hard, enemy placement and stuff, but everything's buffed just enough to get on your nerves. Some bosses summon a third guy and that makes a whole lot of difference (blob tentacle with 3 cats... *shiver*).

The hardest part by far was Chapter 1. Red Ninjas with a crappy Dragon Sword and ridiculous health, not to mention the camera... whoa. Chapter 2 was difficult as well, especially the horsemen bit, but not nearly as stupid as Ch1. Chapter 18 took a while because I backtracked and saved after every step of the tower, but I did the boss rush on my first try (even discovered a relatively easy strategy for Ishtaros).

And man, a fourth mandatory Fiend Ryu on Master Ninja? GAH. I couldn't tell if his Unlabored Flawlessness got stronger as he got weaker, but at least he was much easier than the katana version.

The Master Ninja-exclusive items (Ayane's and Fragrance) are so adorable. I read they appear in Black as well. Saved them for the boss rush.

It sucks that you go through all the pain and don't even get a congratulations screen... :'(

Fate/Unlimited Codes (PSP)

English version keeps the Japanese voices. The game is cool and all, but even the default Normal difficulty is too easy. Just do a special move (Like Saber's First/Second/Third Air, a 3-hit move) so the opponent falls to the ground, when they get up again, quickly do the same move again. I tried it on the Hard difficulties too, and you will get PERFECTs all the time. >v<;

Good game to know about the basic plot for every character tho~ ^^ </wii>

RE1 Director's Cut, Chris run on Advanced, no double ammo. Jill and Rebecca rescued.

Last time I played the game I totally sucked, but I really kicked ass this time, all thanks to a very simple survival-y strategy I refused to implement before: dodge the damn Hunters! They're left handed like Nemesis and will always miss if you just run straight past them. Whenever I chose to stick around and clear the hallway, I'd get hit and lose a ton of ammo. This way is much easier.

Just found out that Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 won't be here until 10/10. Gotta play something else until then...

Okay, since I can't play Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 because there isn't one lousy copy around here, I decided as a personal goal for the next couple of weeks to sit down and finally beat GoldenEye and Perfect Dark.

I'm not good at them, just like I'm not good at BioShock, but I beat BioShock, so I will beat them.

Wish me luck!

I haven't even got past World 1. Right now I'm mainly just fooling around, trying to find how many different guns are in the game, then shoot people and animals with them.

I also got Final Fantasy Tactics earlier today (thanks, Vixy), as part of a deal I made with a friend that I'll play a FF game if he plays a MM game. I haven't actually started it yet though. Also the MM game my friend picked was X4 (I didn't pick for him), and he thinks it's hard >_>

I'm playing Perfect Dark. This game is sex.

I absolutely love the presentation in this game. Normally when they try this sort of exaggerated hi-tech motif it just looks tacky, but in here everything fits. You start the game free to explore the Carrington Institute, with no threats, many terminals with all sorts of cool info, shooting range. This is all before you even start the mission. Like multiple objectives per stage, I wouldn't be surprised if the Carrington Institute idea came from Super Mario 64 as well, it's got a Toadstool-Castle-outdoors vibe to it. Joanna has a sweet voice, the music is kick ass. Wow.

It's too bad Rare lost their mojo. The things they used to pull off in the old days are just unbelievable.

I'm currently playing Summon Night 1, and I'm doing a LOT better than I first played this in 2003. So far, Cleru's Lv8, and Sugar's a Lv behind. Game's fun, plus I got three sword crafting techniques and three blades. Plus I managed to get in the first dungeon without my ass handed to me in 2004 and come all the way back out VIA teleporter, this [parasitic bomb]'s fun.

Dialouge's pretty cool because once you make your choice, the ENTIRE story is affected. hahaha. I gotta love Sugar though, simple yet sweet. Brutes and the 'Tudes were balanced real well, especially Chaves, he's the two-in-one of the Brute-n-'Tude, making him badass as ever. I better write a save though because VBA is rather infamous for sometimes deleting your progress, which is NOT FUN!  O:<

As far as I've heard they removed a lot of crap too like the twin armadillos, exploding jellyfish and that cave worm anyway. For all I care the additions work very much for the best. Infinite ammo, new bosses and the girls.

Currently playing Psychonauts (PS2), Killer 7 (GC), Billy Hatcher and Sonic Adventure 2 battle. (Not necesarally in that order...or one at a time.)

I love this platformer and it's crude humor. Though I can't help but feel a bit dissapointted by the graphics of the game on the PS2 compared to the original's on the Xbox. I'm usually not one to whine about a game's graphics, regardless of what console it comes from. They're minor things however, things that don't really hinder the experience of the game. So I'm pretty much enjoying it. I really like the meat in this game.

Billy Hatcher seems to be a good purchase for the moment, but I can't say it's a good game yet, seeing as I have only cleared the first world and continued playing with one of the other games. And Billy looks very good in a chicken suit.

Sonic Adventure 2...What The [tornado fang]ing Hell made me think that this was a great game back when I was 10-12? Stupid young me. It's not that it's very bad (unless you count the voice acting), it's a decent Sonic game, I'll admit(And that's me being nice). Though I'm mostly having "fun" taking care of those little chaos. I don't know why...but I somehow find it very enjoyable. In addition, I think having to play as Tails in the mech was a very stupid idea, not to mention boring, from Sonic Team. Then again Sonic Team always has bad ideas But I oh so love when those adorable chaos mate.

As for Killer 7....................I love Suda 51's work...though the Junctions mechanic can be a bit annoying at times. Blood fetish!!

I actually lost my last life against capsule Wily when he had only 2px left. Classic!

I just got a copy of Metal Storm in the mail. For the NES. I've been trying to beat that the second time around.

It's the most fun game I've played in quite some time. It has fair difficulty (if you get hit once you die which can get a bit challenging at times), and the graphics (for a nes game) are absolutely outstanding.

Mega Man X3 for the PC. For some reason I like the PC version more than the SNES version, maybe partly because I'm sitting closer to the screen when playing the PC version. I also like the cut-scenes.

Got a lot on my plate at the moment.

Started up Gran Turismo 4 over the weekend. Took a few days but I got my B license and have won a few races and upgraded my Lancer.

Started a new game of Katamari Damacy because I never did finish that game when I started it years ago. Also, my first PS2 memory card that had the data on it was lost.

Beat Mega Man 1-4 on Anniversary Collection. I'll move on to MM5 sometime this week.

Decided to finish Mega Man Legends for the, um... *cough* first time.

I like it, but since I wasn't into the whole Zelda thing back then, I always quit somewhere in the middle (vague memories of a battle... on top of the airship? Is that real?). Plus I expected a Mega Man title to be all about action. But it's a cool game. Exploring those ugly dungeons is fun.

Yes, and you were pretty close to the end at that point.  You battle on top of the Flutter after opening the Main Gate.

Congrats on finally clearing Legends!  If you want things to be more action-oriented you might like L2, which axed the interconnected dungeons but added a number of "sub" dungeons that exist for absolutely no reason other than to run around and beat up enemies for money and equipment, so you spend less time wondering where the hell you are.  You can also move while locked on for more Zelda-esque combat, too, and it's a lot prettier (amazing for a PS1 game, I think).

A FPS called Blood Frontier.

Some of its gameplay mechanics remind me a lot of MMX (wall-kick, dash, air-dash, double-jump), but when I mentioned it to the main developer, he said he's never even played a MM game. Weird, but anyways, was also playing a bit more of Spirit Tracks yesterday, I'm at the Sand Temple, and I gotta say, it has one of the most useless dungeon-items ever.

Splitting time between Galaxy and Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn right now.  In RD, I'm playing the ludicrous Hard Mode, but with infinite Bonus Experience.  Seriously, half the cast is under-leveled no matter what difficulty setting you're playing on.  And the degree to which the availability of both experience and the characters themselves nerfs so many favorites does get aggravating.

After playing Mega Man 2 only a few times, you can get to the point where taking out any of the first eight robot masters with a regular Mega Buster is child's play. Well, in the NES version at least.

Anyhow, at the moment I've been playing A Boy and His Blob for the NES. But I've also been playing Mega Man X for the Super Nintendo, and Mega Man 2 when I feel like passing the time.

I haven't been playing much lately.

I've been avoiding some of my favorite games for a while now, on purpose, so I'll get a more fresh experience in replays. I haven't played these games in over a year, some in more than three years, and in 2010 I will replay all of them as I wait for the big releases. This will also help me not buy more games than I can afford.

So consider this my main 2010 playlist. I will cross out the games I've played as the year passes:

- Super Mario 64, Galaxy
- All 8-bit Mega Man games (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9)
- Mega Man ZX, Advent
- Metroid Prime, Echoes, Corruption
- Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest
- The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, Ocarina of Time, Twilight Princess
- Devil May Cry, Devil May Cry 3: Special Edition
- God of War, God of War II
- No More Heroes
- Okami
- Contra 4
- Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin, Order of Ecclesia


I'm going on a trip to Florida next month, so my portable backlog will probably end in a couple of weeks...

Well, while the second one featured a real online. (PSN account needed)
You have to buy the real copy to get the license code that need to be register.
I also heard from someone that using CFW to play the online mode will result in a banhammer. Even you bought a legit copy.
I don't confirm this but I wouldn't want to try that by myself.

Plenty of battle mode runs today.
My battle rank moved from D to C.

Finished Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story today.  And I gotta say, best Mario ending ever.  Bowser finally gets his [spoiler]cake.  But he's still a tough guy to the end, not left standing bewildered as peace returns to the world or anything.[/spoiler]

I gotta say, Alphadream really "gets" Bowser.  Which is something I never thought I would say referring to a game that uses a distorted voice for him and not the artificial SFX I ordinarily crave (I still resent Galaxy and NSMBWii for that), but it's true.

That sounds harder than simply giving your friend code to others, but the thing I like about the portable and universe series is the adjustment of height and muscularity, or rack for female characters....<.<

Post by: Emiri Landeel on January 11, 2010, 10:15:00 AM
Not really complicate.
It's like you buy a box of PC games. You found a code in the box.
Login to your PSN account (from your PS3, PSP or PC via Media GO software).
Input your code there and you can login to the online mode with your PSN account.
Easy than it sounds  ;)

One thing I like about online mode is; when you create a new character, your friend will still see your online status even he/she never meet your new char before.
But you have to meet each other and exchanged partner card at least once.
To say, the partner card tied to your account not character. So, it's easier to keep track of your friend.
Also, the game use common box now. So, items in the box can be shared to your other characters in the same account.

(http://i602.photobucket.com/albums/tt105/Emiri_DC/Gaming/PSPo2_090110.jpg)

My character is level 1 XD
I played a lot of Battle mode and Challange mode. Due to no level restriction.
And don't worry, everyone start at the same lowest level and so-so equipments to make it fair and square.

This game looks great, though I have to ask one thing,the UMD also works on a American PSP, correct? And do you need a Japanese PSN account to go online? Dang I'm already late for the special edition ah well, if this takes too much japanese diolouge then I'll wait for an english or spanish release, whichever comes sooner.
Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread
Post by: Emiri Landeel on January 11, 2010, 10:45:05 AM
PSP games are region-free so you can play any region UMD unless it's UMD movie.
To go online I heard that you need JP PSN account. I don't know much if it's real or not cos my PSN account is JP.

Bad news is, multiple endings are still presence X( (Normal, Good, True)
But there're list of the answers that will lead you to the true ending already, so it's not really a problem unless you want to understand what's going on.

One thing I fear for an english release is that many collaboration items might not make an appearance.
Like what they did to Phantasy Star Zero....
Fanta, Pizza Hut, Hatsune Miku, Evangelion, Fate.... to name a few, might not see the light of the day in an english release of the game.

Thanks for the information, I'm not big on the special items and weapons, and I know how to make a japanese PSN account,  (hotel adress, all this is on games radar, good ol' games radar owob). Though this also depends on my ability to read japanese, don't care much for the story though, Zero's would have been better if I couldn't understand it. Guess it all comes down to english or spanish release and the cost of a japanese one, thanks for the info Emiri.

Thanks! You also made me remember I have one of those USB to playstation things now, so now I can finally download it!
Though I have no clue which class I picked, though if you ever wanna get online, I'll be setting up my Japanese accoount, depends on how the thing works.
Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread
Post by: Emiri Landeel on January 13, 2010, 03:31:23 PM
Ahh, sorry. But the online for Demo version was ended already.
The only way you can play the game online is the retail version(UMD) or buy it from JP PSstore.

There are 4 classes for you to pick when you create a character. (which 3 of 'em are your generic PSO classes)
ハンター Hunter (Melee)
レンジャー Ranger (Range)
フォース Force (Magic/Tech)
ブレバー Braver (Hybrid class)

You can't change the class in the Demo tho, so pick the one you like and try to level the class level.
Class level plays an important role this time since you'll gain the abilities when your class level up.

To equip abilities, go to the Item shop (Blue doorway) and go to the upper left counter.
Talk to the shop keeper to bring the menu and select the third option.
At first time, most of the ability will cost you one slot. But when your class level goes higher, abilities will require more than one slot. (So as your ability slot too)

You can also upgrade or down grade your ability to carry weapons of choice for the class you're playing.
At the same upper left counter, talk to the shopkeeper and select the second option.
It'll bring the new screen showing different type of weapons.
You can upgrade or downgrade it.

For example, you want to use rank B rifle for your Ranger. Select the rifle and it'll bring down two more choice. Upper one is Upgrade, the bottom one is downgrade.
Tho, you can't upgrade if you don't have the points. To earn the points, you have to level your class level or downgrade the type of weapons you don't use to gain some points.

If you have anything to ask about the demo, you can PM me anytime. ^^

Finally got Valis Complete for PC! (Not legally way tho -_-)
Will play this in any minutes now.

While it's just a port from 4 PCE-CD titles to PC.
It's still better than to keep tracking down all of them in it's original form.

Posted on: January 14, 2010, 01:28:24 PM
Dissapointed by the Valis Complete. Why?

Screen tearing due to no V-sync (Force driver won't work, i tried).
Choppier framerate compared to original PCE-CD version.
No option to map movement key. (If you're using Xbox360 controller on PC, you're screwed. You movement buttons will be at analog, not d-pad. And you can't map it cos there's no option to)

So, I'll go back to play the original version on emulator. >_<
Will play Valis 3 PCE-CD right now.

Maximum Attack killed count is now over 4 millions!
S route is now unlocked! 7 million kills to unlock EX route. 10 millions to unlock some secret stuff!

How's the event works?
Play the event online and the monster, your killed count will be send to the server.
So everyone need to kill as much monsters as possible to unlock more routes and more items.

The event will be end at 12th, and I'm not sure will we reach 10 millions or not by the end of an event.

So I played a little Mischief Makers and Bakuretsu Muteki Bangai-O. I tested them on the Wii. ^^;

There are lots of graphic glitches on both of them.
And on Mischief Makers, the screen isn't placed right on the center of the screen and there's no saving.

You can see what it looks like. ^^;

If the video doesn't work, watch it here. (http://www.rockmanpm.com/?p=mp4/mischiefmakerswii) (Download (http://www.rockmanpm.com/i/mp4/mischiefmakerswii.mp4))

The bigger glitches shows up after 17:10.

The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures

Just beat the first level, and already I can tell this is going to become one of my favourite Zelda games (I'm a real sucker for any 2D/Overhead Zeldas). Really fun and unique gameplay. And while the backgrounds are recycled from LttP, they did a great job of combining them with some more "modern" graphics and such, giving it a bit of an original visual style in a way. Music is also great so far.. I actually said "[tornado fang] yeah!" aloud upon hearing the LttP Mini-game music play.

Started Silent Hill: Shattered Memories.

It's interesting. I'm not very far into it, just cleared the second Nightmare.

The psych test and the phone are really cool additions, I love being able to draw my own marks on the map (even though I probably won't, don't have as much patience with taking notes as the old Silent Hill 2 days).

The Nightmares are intense and I love them, especially because Harry just storms in and out of places and you don't have to waste much time pressing buttons, it's just running for your life. I must admit that I would still prefer having more videogame-y items like ammo and healing scattered around to collect, the mementos aren't doing it for me so far.

But the scariest thing about this game is: where the hell are the load times? :o Very nice job with that, Climax.

Finished Muramasa as Momohime. It's a pretty cool game. Could have used some more variety, perhaps mobility upgrades and environmental interaction à la Metroid.

Level 60 and 44 Blades forged, in about 13 hours of gameplay.

Considering starting Kisuke's playthrough just because I'm so curious about that final white barrier and the last sword...

Downloaded and beat Dark Void Zero.

Though it only took me about 4 hours to complete the game i had a really, REALLY fun time playing it. A great 8-bit gaming experience right here and definitely worth the $5.

Majora's Mask.

This is part of my statistics project, my personal project. I'm going to bloody well 100% this, every Skulltula dungeon, every fairy, every heart, every mask (I did that before, but still), completely 100% this bugger, once and for all.

And so far, I'm really enjoying it. But I'm about to quit the sidequests and start the Swamp Temple and then the Skulltula Dungeon (if I get a boomerang or a hookshot or something).

Working on Mega Man 10. Already beat it with Mega Man. Played a bit with Proto Man, but man, he takes WAY too much damage. Downloaded Bass but haven't tried him out yeat. Special Stage 1 put a huge smile on my face.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl. I think I've unlocked just about everyone but as far as unlocking everything... LONG way to go.

Super Mario Galaxy. This may be the best Mario platformer out there, at least IMO.

Castlevania: Rondo of Blood. Downloaded this last night. Wow this is old-school 'vania and it is HARD.

Classic Dungeon for the PSP (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5ZPTqkUkg0)

You play as this every-day soon-to-become hero called Soma who just explored a cave with his friend Pudding. They later visit an open-field island where they meet the white hair magic girl Deathpina.

It does look like a dungeon crawler at first, but it doesn't lock you to grids at all. It's completely free-roaming and you can also jump and slash with your weapon without any wait in-between attacks. You can at anytime switch between Modern and Retro style music in the Settings.

The humor and visual style of the game is similar to Half Minute Hero and 3D Dot Heroes. Since it's made by Nippon Ichi, it has a bit Disgaea things here and there. The game also has a edit mode similar to 3D Dot Heroes, where you can create any kind of character you like. ^^

The song between 1:15 and 2:14 in the trailer... O^O
The ocarina/flute tunes makes my heart warm and happy~ >oo<

No, what I meant was, does the game deserve all the criticism it's getting for the characters having to walk endlessly all the time? There seemed to be quite alot of distance to cover in the gameplay I've seen, with a few enemies to be fought.

If you don't press Z to target enemies, you can run around in the open field and be amazed at the beauty of the game.

There's also a arrow icon at the very top of the screen that shows you where to go next.
A number will go lower and lower the closer you get to your next destination. ^^;

When you fight, you can pick between the spells and attack moves you have with the D-pad and use with the A button.
They will recharge for a bit after you use them, so in the meantime, you can do regular attacks with A button. Jump with B button. xD

Does the game have anything similar to Fast Travel? And when I meant walking alot, was that there's a big distance between objectives, with few enemies to fight. It's at least what I've seen in videos. Comparable to say... Oblivion. If you've played it, the game features an entire continent of scenery, but it gets kinda frustrating to always keep traversing it, with few enemies along the way, although there are plenty of landmarks. Xenoblade seems to have quite alot of open world, tons of walking to do in it, with just a few enemies to fight along the way. Huge cities as well. So without a form of fast travel, the game might get a bit boring as you go on.

Again, only seen a few gameplay videos, so this is just speculation. I'm referring to this video in particular.
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v00DGXlZdCc&feature=player_embedded[/youtube]
The character spends a good time walking before he has the chance to do anything. =P

Um well, as you saw at the very end of the video, it does have Fast Travel from the Map in your menu.
You access the menu with the - button and then select the Map icon (Save/Load is on the right side of the menu).
This is more or less how the game is, I'm afraid, but it's still a beautiful game. ^^

The improvements over the PSX version are really noticable.
Music is either new or highly acceptale for PSP.
Sprites look new.
Screen resolution and aspect ratio match psp.
I think they re-encoded the intro FMVs from the masters(but I don't watch them long).
The clouds are a nice effect.

 Now for some complaints.
I have to choose wether to use D-Pad or Analog Nub? Why not both?
The circle lighting effect irks me for some reason.
I can't re-assign the cancel button.
Both the buttons for the Map command are on the same side. Would have been nice if they changed it to L+Cancel or made it just Select.
In zoomed in mode on the map, when it is seeking to the location you selected, you have to wait for it to arrive before you can select a new one.

Play the version you're not playing right now (If USA, change to JPN version, and so on).
Go to the Config settings and change language to English.

Labyrinth of Touhou Special Disc (http://touhou.wikia.com/wiki/Labyrinth_of_Touhou), this is an improvement over the original game with the Plus Disc expansion. Still in the beginning of the game though.

I don't really understand it though, OoT wasn't all that great, the gameplay was decent, but the storyline and such was pretty cliché. WHOOPS, GANON TOOK OVER THE WORLD AND NOW LINK HAS TO GO FIND SOME SAGES OR WATEVER THEN ROFLPWN GANON AND YAY THE WORLD IS SAVE AND NOW FOR THE SAPPY ENDING.

Never finished ALTTP, but it twas good. Minish Cap was okay, kinda easy, but otherwise fun. Never played FSA. I should track it down.

Currently playing Prinny, looking for secrets each playthrough. I beat it again because the last torn letter is a bit difficult to get. And I still gotta look for those last two orbs too to obtain ending #2. Ending #3 is triggered through a Game Over, and Normal Ending is triggered through standard methods.

And seriously, its the first game I ever OWNED. (Came with the SNES in '94. I was only a year old, But I learned how to play Video games that way, no starting on crummy easy games for me. Started with something that was a decent challenge at the time.)

So X-Play sucks now? (Not having G4TV will do that to ya) I got butt-aches from Bunny Must Die lots of times, but I won't call it a bad game. The only butt-aches that's never worth playing from experience are Sonic '06 and Melon Squash!, and those games were effin' terrible.

Well, I was playing Fallout 3 on the 360, but damn game keep [tornado fang]ing up during loading a crushes.

I was in the middle of the main story quest... I'll put a spoiler label just so I won't spoil anything for anyone who hasn't played it.

[spoiler]It in the quest where I have to help my father with Project Purity, at the point where the Enclave shows up to steal the project. After the guy killed one of the scientists and my kills them with a high does of radiation. At this point, I am suppose to follow Dr. Li out of the Jefferson Memorial. But this is where I have a problem: the moment I walk out the door, the game freezes during loading. I tried pressing the Xbox dashboard button to see it was taking a long time to load; turns out the game crushes at this point.[/spoiler]

Long story short, the game f*cks up during loading when I enter the next room to continue in my quest. I dunno if it has to do with the disc being scratched up, because my brother borrowed from a friend of his who has a 360, and the disc is really scratched up, though it seems to be a very likely case. But all I know is that I am (probably) not going to waste another 20+ hours to get back where I was when the game began to f*ck up out of sheer frustration.

Just disconnect your computer internet cable temporarily and connect it to the 360. It's not brain science, and the 360 automatically connects online with ease. Download the patch and be done with it. Seriously, the 360 and the PS3 must be connected online once in awhile, or you're gonna miss out on updates, demos, and a ton of patches which keep popping up.

The Physics are superb in WRC for PSP.

Yeah, the PSP's GT was damn awful. Failing to understand that GT's main thing was to have the very best graphics and physics, portraying reality for that time was the studio's downfall. You don't downgrade a series that's about realism.

Anyway, I already own DIRT 2, Wipeout and Motorstorm for the PSP. Lately, I've been playing Forza 3 and Pure on the 360. I do prefer arcadey driving most of the time, but when I'm really in the mood, I love realistic racing games.

How are the new vehicles?

I haven't had much time to try them all, as I just played Multi with a bunch of friends last night.

The new faster, mini Wraith tank is really good. It's hard to kill individuals with it outside of attempted ramming, but it's really good against vehicles. I like it a lot. The new jeep is.......well probably more fair now because the turret can actually overheat. One thing I do like is that the handling is a lot better. I find it easier to stay on all four wheels with both the Jeep & Mongoose.

Tonight I'm probably going to play the Story Mode with my friends when I get home from work, so I'll let you know.

Okay, so I just spent the past 5 hours going through the Campaign mode on Legendary for Halo: Reach. I've still got about 2 more levels to go before we're done though. Overall, it's really good. It's definitely a lot more enjoyable than ODST (which gets a nice shout out in the game). The new vehicle modes they put in are a whole lot of fun, and the story is pretty interesting. Well, I mean, I don't follow Halo storyline as much as a bigger Halo fan, but it's still pretty interesting.

Man though, the Silver Elites are a [sonic slicer]! XD

Muramasa: The Demon Blade.

Holy SH*#!, does this game kick ass (was one of those gift ideas that nobody actually used, so I finally bought it for myself).  They're pretty darn conservative about level estimates for the enemy lairs, though.  The game recommends Level 9 or above to face 100 armed monks, and they left me hurting at Level 21. o-O

Megaman Zero Collection.

Progress: Easy Scenario COMPLETE.
Title Select:
Megaman Zero 1: Hard Mode Unlocked, Ultimate Mode Unlocked.
Megaman Zero 2: Hard Mode Unlocked, Approx. 50% Cyber Elves, 9 EX Skills, 8 Forms. (*)
Megaman Zero 3: Hard Mode Unlocked, Ultimate Mode Unlocked, All EX Skills. Zero and Ceil's Minigames unlocked. (+)
Megaman Zero 4: Hard Mode Unlocked, All EX Skills, Beaten with no Chips or Cyber Elf. B Rank Throughout.

(*)=Highly Frustrating
(+)=Piece of Cake

MMZ1 Used to be the hardest for me, but now that title goes to MMZ2, as I was able to get good practice in MMZ1 that I was unable to do in MMZ2. MMZ4 was only difficult this time due to my refusal to upgrade my Cyber Elf or get chips (For the Mini Games, of course.)

The latest in TBA's series of PS2-games-I-haven't-payed-yet is now Onimusha: Warlords.

I picked up the Essentials box set for about 30 bucks over the weekend. I've been needing some new adventure-ish games lately, and I've heard some pretty good things about the series.  Didn't expect Warlords to have quite a few survival horror elements to it, though.  I've never played one before.  It's... ... pretty interesting, actually.  The game itself is fairly fun, but I'm not keen on having to grind for souls when enemies don't respawn all that quick.

This doesn't mean I'll be playing Resident Evil or any other zombie-themed survival games anytime soon, though. This is also the second M-rated series of game's I've actually had the guts to play, the other being Metal Gear. I already like it a lot more than MGS.

Wizardry 6: Bane of the Cosmic Forge

With the following party members, each with their own custom-edited in-game portrait:

- Bossk: Lizardman Fighter
- IG-88: Mook Fighter
- Greedo: Hobbit Thief
- Dengar: Human Ranger
- 4-LOM: Felpurr Bard
- Zuckuss: Faerie Alchemist

The party members are currently at Level 3, with Dengar and 4-LOM just starting to learn spells (Rangers using the Alchemist spellbook and Bards using the Mage spellbook).  Zuckuss learned new spells at Level 2 and can now cast up to seven spells per battle as his stamina drops like a stone.  Greedo has successfully disarmed two traps and picked two locks.  Dengar utterly sucks ass with arrows, so he spends battles building up his ninjitsu by hiding.  Bossk has all the personality and charisma of a rock and can break doors down.  IG-88 can't hit anything if his life depended on it.

Yeah, they suck.  But the game's fun.  And I cheer when they hit something.  And that should help to explain the origin of this sketch (http://img404.imageshack.us/img404/7540/zuckussalchemistsketch.jpg) that I posted in my thread yesterday.

Bossk and IG-88 are at level 4 with the rank of Warrior.  And since Greedo couldn't drink Captain Matey under the table, we decided to let the others have a go.  Zuckuss lasted four or five drinks before he hit the floor, Dengar downed seven or eight and was on his ass, and Bossk bolted ten and was still good to go.  Captain Matey, on the other hand, went down.

Oddly, though, even if you do best Captain Matey in the drinking contest, if you try to enter that room again, he'll challenge you.  So, we think we gotta fight him.

Bouncing back and forth between Foto Showdown, which is a DSi exclusive, and Dragon Quest 9.

Foto Showdown's pretty fun, a bit more than I had expected. Of course, so far, like most collect-and-battle-type video games (ex: Capcom VS SNK Card Battle, any Yu-Gi-Oh game, and the later pokemon games), the plot has so many holes in it you'd think that it was the victim of a mafia drive-by.

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II (Wii version specifically)

It's okay so far. Gameplay is just the same mindless hack n' slash with Force Powers thrown in. There's two things that really bother me though:

In pretty much every interview, the developers mentioned being able to cut enemies in half, etc. and that the Lighsaber would actually act more like well, a [tornado fang]ing Lightsaber. You know, one or two slices and they're dead? Well, they must've been bulshitting because it take nearly 10 [tornado fang]ing hits to kill just one Stormtrooper, which I swear is even more than it took in the first game (and he's got two Lighstabers this time for christ sakes)

Second thing is the personality of Rahm Kota in this game. Acting like an annoying arrogant [dark hold] only obsessed with attacking the Empire with little to no strategy, I could maybe understand since he's now a General of a newly formed Rebel Alliance. But, when a Jedi Master encourages me to use my rage to attack enemies, there's something wrong.

Before anyone asks, yes, I know my family are outlawing PC doujins because of what happened to me a while back (that is until I get my own frickin' PC so I can play them in secrecy as I intent to), but I was working on something for GameFAQs for Rosenkreuzstilette at the time before my brother nuked the hard drive and killed every - constructive - thing was I actually working on. For a time, I was working on it, then lost my motivation, worked on it again, then lost motivation again wondering if anyone would actually use it. As long as I can keep the file space far away from the gray line (it was 20GB worth PC doujins for me when my brother's sh*t took up 40~60+GB), I can avoid any suspicions from raising.

I'm only just now starting the FIRST Force Unleashed game (Wii version).

I hate to sound like a graphics whore but this game SHOULD NOT have opened with views of ships.  It really stings the eyes for Nintendo fans who are familiar with the infinitely superior work that Factor 5 did with the Rogue Squadron games LAST CONSOLE GENERATION.

The gameplay is decent, but I can see what Mar is saying with lightsaber hits not feeling all that strong.  Somehow any enemy who can pick up a melee weapon gets to be a real nuisance; it makes me miss X7's Zero for crying out loud.  They're not kidding when they say this game is about Force powers, 'cuz the lightsaber just blows.

My problem with the Wii version of Force Unleashed is that, for all intents and purposes, it SHOULD'VE been the best one. It had the most perfect control scheme with the Mote Chuk combo, and they totally f'ed it up.
Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread
Post by: Irgendein on October 31, 2010, 05:10:12 AM
Never played the first one on Wii, just how was it set up?

In TFUII, it's fairly easy. B to Jump, A to attack (though you have the option to switch them), Shake the Wiimote to use a Special Attack, Shake Nunchuck for Force Push, Hold Z and Shake Nunchuck for Force Lightning, Hold Z and Shake Wiimote for Sabre Throw. Lightly Pressing C resets the camera, holding it goes into Force Grip mode, where you just simply point the cursor at something to pick it up and move it, then flick the Wiimote to send it flying. D-Pad has Force Dash, Mind Trick, Force Sight and Fore Rage assigned to it.
Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread
Post by: Hypershell on October 31, 2010, 06:27:20 AM
In 1, C is your lightning and Z is your grip.  Also, you swing for regular attacks (which is nowhere NEAR as smooth as Twilight Princess), hold A and swing for saber throws, and tap A for force dash.  D-Pad is camera control.

There's no cursor controls in 1 that I've seen yet, beyond the menus anyway.  Enemy/object targetting seems to just be a matter of proximity.

I find the controls not as responsive as I would like (which is saying a lot from somebody who mastered the ability to not jump when picking up a building in Godzilla Unleashed), but still functional.  "Thrusting the nunchuck" feels a bit unnatural since they demand a stabbing motion, whereas I'm trained by both Twilight Princess and Punch-Out!! to do punching motions.

I do like the controller-rotation moves used in "chance" matchups against the bosses, though.  Not that the movements make all that much sense, but they're a unique and fairly simple way to keep the player involved during cinematic attacks.

Never played the first one on Wii, just how was it set up?

The problem I had with the first one's control scheme was that the you couldn't move the nunchuk around like his hand when using the Force Powers, specially Force Grip/Grab/Throw. I couldn't fling him with the Nunchuk, and rather instead had to use the Analog stick. It wasn't a "major" issue for the most part, but I just felt the controls could've been better.

[spoiler=Now Playing in an emulator near you!]Currently Playing:


Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass: Even though it's 3 years old, I'm getting a vibe of nostalgia from it. Must be because it was my first DS game and my first Zelda game.

Pokemon Ranger: Shadows of Almia: Dang easy.

Mega Man Zero Collection: Hm. Looks clearer than the GBA version.

Sonic Rush: Really isn't all that great.

Sonic Rush Adventure: Waaay better than the last one. That ghost pirate was hard as balls though.

Mega Man Starforce: Pegasus: Odd, for some reason, I like it more than Dragon. Better cards maybe?

Mega Man 3: Heheh, Top Man.
[/spoiler]

[spoiler=LOLOL, WE GAVE YOU A RELEASE DATE THEN CHANGED IT. Yeah. I know the joke sucked.]On Hiatus (Mostly because I can't find my USB controller and my keyboard sucks):

Mega Man Legends (N64): Shame I can't find the controller, otherwise I'd be playing this boss now.

Paper Mario: Eh, well it pulled off the turn based combat better than Pokemon could.

Golden Sun: I dunno, decided to take a break. *shrug*

Tales of Phantasia (GBA): Sort of lost interest. I'll get back to it.

Spongebob Squarepants: Revenge of the Flying Dutchman: Even if it was my first GBA game that I got when I was 7, it ain't all that great like I remember it.

Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX: ... I dunno, Lost interest, I guess.

Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages: Same story here too.

Final Fantasy V Advance: Stuck on a boss with only a low health Bartz left and a potion, didn't quite save. Don't wanna start over.

Final Fantasy VI Advance: Because... actually, I don't know why I stopped playing this one...

Legend of Zelda: A Link To The Past: Because I'm more concerned with my three heart run of OOT.

Legend of Zelda: Minish Cap: Because I already beat it and all it's good for now is to kill off 20 minutes.

[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Coming Soon!]Haven't yet started:

Super Mario 64: Odd, we have the N64, though I don't remember us having this game with it.

Super Mario Bros. Deluxe: It's the NES game on a GBC cartridge, THE POINT?

Donkey Kong Country 2 (GBA): ...I don't know why I'm not playing this one either...

Dragon Ball Z: Legacy of Goku: It was good, but again, I'm not sure why I'm not playing it.[/spoiler]

Since anything the DS supports is obsolete in terms of hacking protection anyway, I just leave my connection completely password-less (get a LOT less connection errors that way; the DS is absurdly picky), and to keep out the leechers, have my router reserve all possible IPs for my own devices.  Nobody gets on without MAC-spoofing, and if they're capable of that, then WEP probably wouldn't have stopped them anyway.

If worst comes to worst, there's always Nintendo's Wi-fi dongle.



Firing up The Misadventures Of Tron Bonne.  With that mech design contest up, I'm definitely feeling the need to get myself Legends-fied.  And that bank robbery just never gets old.

Almost onto Mega Man 5. I've started playing Breath of Fire for the GBA. Somewhat enjoyable thus far.

Also, I'm finally at the E4 on Pokemon Platinum, with my team currently resting as:

Overgrown - Level 64 Torterra

Destiny - Level 49 Giratina

Will - Level 50 Azelf

Intel - Level 50 Uxie

Free - Level 50 Mesprite

Spirit - Level 33 Lucario

I'm thinking of doing some training and probably scrapping Free and Intel from the team, however, the rest of my pokemon are way underleveled resting in the 20's or 30's, so it'd take a huge amount of training which I really don't wanna do. Should I move on or deal with the training?

New Super Mario Bros. Wii. Just picked it up. Too soon to say it's better than the first NSBM, but I still enjoy it. Just got to World 4 and I must say this game does seem a tad tougher. I wish I could take Yoshi to other levels but it is sooooo satisfying to have him eat a hammer thrown by a Hammer Bro. and then have him fling it right back at him! That's payback for 20+ years of anguish in the original SMB!! Fire Chomps are back. Makes me wonder what else they brought back. *Sigh* I miss Goomba's Shoe.  ;O;

Zelda: The Wind Waker. Currently hunting for the Trifoce charts. Toon Link is my fav version of Link. The sailing aspect of the game doesn't really bother me.

I managed to get a copy of Super Mario All-Stars Limited Edtion for Wii despite not pre-ordering it. Looks like it came with everything the Japanese version came with. Despite owning the SNES version, I still wanted to cop this.

Also picked up Super Mario Galaxy 2 so I'll probably get some of that it along side NSMBW.

Zelda: The Wind Waker. Currently hunting for the Trifoce charts. Toon Link is my fav version of Link. The sailing aspect of the game doesn't really bother me.

I myself am replaying Wind Waker on a New Game +, but I'm doing a bit of a challenge run. I'm trying to do a Three Heart Run while holding the camera AT A TOP-DOWN VIEW. I call it Wind Waker DS. *shot*

Also, funny story, I found out only about 13% of Wind Waker is spent sailing thanks to an FAQ I read. Who would've thought?

I remember one castle that continuously looped around unless you found a certain spot, flew ALL THE WAY TO THE ROOF, and had to time your button press to go through the levitating door. It was freakin' maddening.
I miss the days before the internet, when we could use Power Wings without shame.

That said, the levitating door never bugged me.  Toughest flying stunt in SMB3 for me was the one area where you had to grap a koopa shell and fly up while holding it bash blocks/kill plants.

I admire your courage. I've never tried to attempt a three heart run in any Zelda game.

Only %13 of Wind Waker is spent sailing? For real? Now that is interesting, considering how big the overworld in Wind Waker is.

While we're on the subject of Super Mario Bros. 3, (I'm making my way through Super Mario All-Stars, sans Lost Levels and I'm nearly to SMB3) anyone remember that final Fortress that had like a million doors? Did ANYONE pass that stage without a guide? When I went in there as a kid and saw how many freaking doors there was, I said screw it and used Lakitu's Cloud to pass that sucker and I've been doing it ever since.

And what's this about not being to use P-Wings without being disgraced? I miss something?

Three heart Runs are easier than they sound. Just don't get hit. That's the rule.

Well, you can get hit, but you won't die the FIRST time.

Super Mario All-Stars Wii. Its just as I remembered it (From like 3 months ago when I popped the cart in the SNES for some nostalgia.)

Whats nice is that unlike my SNES version (Which has to remain at 480i and looks wierd.) The Wii version stays at 480p, and it looks real crisp. Kinda like playing it on an emulator. I like it.

Bayonetta, man the 360 version runs SO much smoother than the PS3 version that my brother has (seeing is believing). And I finally beaten that bastard Ballos and got the True Ending of Cave Story. But I want to know for anyone else playing Cave Story on their Wii is there something going on with the main character's sprite coloring; he's all dark with red clothes. Is there something wrong with the game? Never mind; it turns out (as I suspected) it was something done for the holiday season. But why make Quote's sprite so dark-skinned that you can't see his hair? :\

IMHO the "collectible checklist" shpiel just doesn't work for Sonic.  It's fun in the enclosed stages, but when you're blazing by wide-open areas, having to stop and check every nook and cranny just sucks the life out of you (I wasn't too fond of Secret Rings' Fire Souls, either).

Also, I had no problems with Wii Werehog controls using the Classic Controller.

But its definitley more fun this time around. More things going on, less mediocrity.

No. I MEAN GameCube Controller. I don't own the classic controller. On a side note, once you get used to it, it's not that bad. I actually don't mind the Werehog that much. This game is underrated, not by an exponential amount, but still underrated.

Also, I read that critics actually preferred the Wii day stages over the 360/PS3 ones. Wonder why. I myself enjoy them because instead of being able to continually boost, you need to time between boosts as you can't do it continually. If you time them correctly, you can zip by faster than by boosting all the way through and missing shortcuts. It also give a slight challenge in that I noticed it's harder to control Sonic during Wii boosts than in 360/PS3 boosts, and I love challenge. But that's just me.

4-LOM gained a level in Wizardry 6.  He is now at Level 4, with the rank of Cantor.  He's learned his second spell, Armor Shield. 

Dengar searched a large room and discovered an altar with buttons on it.  We have yet to figure out what combination to press the buttons in.  Greedo disarmed a trap on a chest and the party has acquired new treasure.  Greedo got a dagger with runes and gemstones embedded in the handle, and Zuckuss has some goat's head mask that we think might be cursed.  The head has an armor class of -2.0, and when Zuckuss equipped it, his health and stamina dropped a bit.  So, either it's cursed, or it's just too heavy for him.

Yup, I'll try to go back on Wednesday morning to see if I can play single player for a while to get used to it before everyone else gets there and kicks my ass even though apparently I'm the one that knows the game the most >__>

M-Rated DS games? BLASPHEMYYYYY!

Either I've gone blind or I've been a shut-in for too long because I've yet to see an M-rated DS game.

CosmicBreak, an Armored Core slash Virtual-On free-to-play MMO game. Man I'm getting it handled to me like a noob by other players. I hope CyberStep puts that UC to Rt conversion from the Japanese game to the English one, because I don't plan to use real-life money for an MMO anytime soon.

Dengar gained a level.  He's now a Lvl. 4 Ranger with the rank of Scout and he learned the spell Heal Wounds. 

We swapped around some swag that they had.  Bossk is now carrying the goat's head and Greedo gave his skullcap to Zuckuss (Zuckuss was the only one who could equip it).  After defeating some rogues, they got some more loot.  IG-88 got a chain hauberk and a heraldic shield and Bossk has a bastard sword.  The heraldic shield, when invoked, increases one's strength, and of the people who could use it, IG-88 had the lowest strength.  Now that his strength is increased, he'll hit more often.  He doesn't miss alot, but he doesn't hit alot.  Though, when he hits, he hits like a jackhammer.

The party fought some slimes.  That was a hectic battle.  The slimes kept ganging up on IG-88, as of the front line, he's the heavy-hitter.  So, Zuckuss kept having to cast Heal Wounds on IG-88, then cast Stamina on himself just to replenish his stats.  After that, they got their second wind, and while the back line rested, the front line dealt some death.

The party returned to the magic fountain to replenish their stats, but either they used up all its benefits or they're now at a level where it won't work on them anymore.  So now they actually have to sleep.  The problem is, when they sleep, they age.  But, they're all still young, they've hit Level 4 (Level 5 for Greedo, gotta update his stats, still), and they haven't yet aged a year, so there's no reason to worry.  Zuckuss needs to replenish his mana anyway.  We can't let our main magic user go down.

Oh, and here's a screenshot of the game:

Hoo boy, lots of stuff happened in Wizardry today.  Greedo got to exercise his thieving skills, so now Dengar has a spear that Greedo lifted, and Greedo has leather boots and leggings to replace his buskins and pants, which were promptly sold.  They fought some monsters and Bossk and IG-88 leveled up.  They are now at level 5.  

The party encountered a large grouping of fuming vines, and during the battle, the vines put Bossk, IG-88, Greedo, and 4-LOM to sleep, leaving Dengar and Zuckuss to do all the work.  Dengar is thrusting that spear of his and Zuckuss is casting spells like crazy.  Then, Dengar falls asleep!  Thankfully, it was only for a moment (we decided that Zuckuss threw a bell jar at Dengar's head. "GET UP!  I'm not doing this alone!").  So, they continued to fight til exhaustion.  

Finally, Bossk wakes up and promptly rips the [parasitic bomb] outta the vines. "No stupid vine puts me to sleep... AND LIVES!"  After the battle, Zuckuss leveled up to level 5 and learned Stink Bomb.  Then, he cast Cure Lesser Condition on IG-88 until his mana bottomed out.  4-LOM woke up on his own, and Greedo snoozed for a bit longer, then finally woke up.  Now the party is ready and rested, aside from Dengar and Zuckuss.  We're gonna let them sleep before the next battle, restore some stamina and mana.

Though, the race of Faerie has its disadvantages (Zuckuss's stamina blows and his carrying capacity is next to nil), they're immune to most magical status effects.  So, while everyone else could be snoozing, at least Zuckuss will be awake.  Dunno how Dengar escaped being put to sleep.

Post by: Quickman on January 25, 2011, 06:07:46 AM
Alrighty, some things happened since the last battle.  After searching a room, Dengar found some rotten cheese, which was given to Greedo to carry.  Upon searching another room, a small hole is discovered in the wall.  So, Greedo puts the cheese in front of the hole.  The floor rumbles and the wall explodes as a huge crazed rat bursts forth, followed by a battalion of smaller rats, driven to distraction by the odor of the cheese!  It was time for a boss battle!

That Fat Rat was immune to the effects of 4-LOM's lute and was unaffected by Dengar's charm.  So, the party concentrated all their firepower on the Fat Rat.  The Fat Rat attacked Bossk and IG-88 and Greedo, and Zuckuss was slinging Heal Wounds as fast as he could, all the while taking out the group of Killer Rats with Stink Bombs.  He and 4-LOM double-teamed on the Fat Rat, with 4-LOM unleashing a full blast (as his mana would allow) of Energy Blast, and Zuckuss letting it have it with all the Acid Splash he had.  That was summarily followed by Dengar stabbing with his spear, Greedo thrusting with the cutlass, Bossk taking a swing with the bastard sword, and IG-88 letting loose with one of his jackhammer hits.  Lather, rinse, repeat.  The Fat Rat finally goes down, though he almost took Greedo, Bossk, and IG-88 with him.  The rest of the rats were wiped out with a Stink Bomb and a swing from Bossk's bastard sword.

After that, 4-LOM gained a level (level 5) and learned Terror.  Zuckuss cast Heal Wounds on the injured party members, then they hoofed it down to the basement to, uh, "procure" some items from the trader, Queequeg.  So, Greedo makes his move... and steals some items.  Those items, once reviewed and either traded to another party member and equipped or deemed useless, were then sold back.  Greedo pilfers some more and snags three Heavy Heals!  Greedo also stole himself some leather goods, so now he's decked out in leather.  He stole a fur halter, but no one could use that, so he sold it back for a measly amount.

Next up is exploring the new passageway the party has uncovered!  Well, it was explored, but we forgot to save, so we need to explore it again.  At least it's mapped out and the party knows pretty much what to expect to find in there, aside from random enemy battles.

In Wizardry, the party has discovered a jail in the castle.  Dengar also gained a level and learned Itching skin.  He found some more keys (he's carrying all of the keys) and some other items, which due to their nature (academia and arcane), were passed to Zuckuss.  So now, Zuckuss is toting around a dead man's log book and a Terror scroll.   4-LOM got a new instrument!  He now has a harmonium to play, which irritates the enemies.

The trek through the jail (they're still trekking through it) was punctuated by battle after battle after battle.  Ain't no rest for the wicked (or our intrepid heroes).  During a lull in the fighting, they settled down for a rest when a group of scallywags stumbled upon them.  So, groggily, Bossk, IG-88, Greedo, Dengar, and 4-LOM start fighting.  While Zuckuss sleeps through the entire battle.

Zuckuss: "We were in a battle?  Why didn't anyone wake me up?!"

Bossk: "You looked so peaceful..."

There's still more of the prison to explore, but since there was a lull in the fighting after that last battle that Zuckuss slept through, we decided to stop playing for the night.  

Tune in next time to see if our band of bumbling bounty hunters can best the baddies for booty in the next installment of... Wizardry 6: Bane of the Cosmic Forge!

Posted on: February 08, 2011, 03:45:12 AM
It's Grind Time in Wizardry, which is kinda like Mime Time, only not as funny.  There was some limited exploration just to flesh out a map, but otherwise, the party just fought baddies.  After a fight with a rogue, however, 4-LOM acquired three rutabagas.  We're not sure if they can eat the rutabagas or if Zuckuss could use them to make spells.  Haven't played with those, yet.

Bossk, IG-88, and Greedo each gained a level, so they're all at level 6.  No rank changes yet, and bonus points were dumped in their Shielding, as they're the front line.

And the PC sound "music" sounds like Dengar beat-boxing.

It's still Grind Time for our band of bounty hunters.  They fought some rats, bats, slimes, and vines.  The rutabagas 4-LOM has can be eaten.  And Zuckuss leveled up and learned Blinding Flash to try and round out his spellbook with a fire-based spell.  And we found that resting during battle (if the other characters can go at it alone with no trouble) restores mana better than resting outside of battle.  So, Zuckuss gets his sleep during the latter turns of each battle.  That way, he can heal anyone who needs healing.

Dengar is gradually beefing up his healing skills.  He still can't do much more than slap a band-aid on a wound, but he's working at it.

It's still Grind Time in Wizardry 6, only mixed with exploration and a need to remap the entire second dungeon.  While exploring a tower, a rafter falls on the bounty hunters.  Dengar inspects it, but can't tell if it was booby-trapped or if it had just fallen due to crappy architecture.  After dispatching some rats, they climb the tower and go outside, overlooking the surrounding kingdom.  Then, they go inside and Dengar finds a crusty treasure chest in a small vault.  Greedo disarms the trap and the loot is divided between Bossk and Dengar (Dengar gets the keys and Bossk gets the cloth shirt and pants to sell later).

They return to the previous dungeon and begin to climb another set of stairs.  Suddenly, they hear a scampering ahead of them.  The bounty hunters follow the sound.  A door slams and beyond it, they can hear heavy breathing.  Then, a voice:

"Go away!  I said, go away!  I won't come out, I don't care who you are!"

So far, Bossk can't think of the right things to say to lure this person out.  So, the group turn and are ambushed by rogues.  They easily dispatch them and Greedo acquires more dirks.  Then, they return to the previous dungeon in a vain attempt to relocate the steps to the bell tower.  Several wrong turns and battles later, we realize that the dungeon needs to be remapped, so that is the next logical step.

Oh, the rutabagas that 4-LOM has can be eaten.  They restore bits of health and stamina.

God, I hate this game. >.<;

Anyway, I checked my pokemon team out (playing Pokemon: SS here), beginning with my Celebi. Decided to test it out in Mt. Rushmore Silver and it did rather well against a wild Ponyta, despite stat diffrences (regardless of LV, it depends on the ATK and DEF factor), and having to replace certain moves before the Ponyta battle (Psychic and Trick Room, I've been holding on to those for quite awhile, along with the other TMs), which the titular moves were Leaf Storm and Healing Wish (We don't want a self-KO move in a Wifi battle against a hackie, don't we?).

And that's all folks.

MM&B is brutal, but it feels considerably less cheap than 9 did, IMHO.

Midway through Apollo Justice, the one Ace Attorney game I missed.

It's a shame, character-wise, that Apollo himself has so little to differentiate himself from young-Phoenix, because the game's supporting cast is pretty awesome.

So far, Gamestop.  Dunno if a Wi-Fi version is coming like with the beast trio, or not.

Celebi triggers two events, one in HG/SS and the other in Black/White, so do try to pick one up.

Beat Sonic Unleashed (PS3), I enjoy the Night Stages, but the controls in some of the Day stages (Especially the drift, Lightspeed Dash, and quick step.) feel off (Sometimes the drift fails to execute (Chun-Nan Day over the water), The Lightspeed dash is touchy and Triangle need to be hit like 50 times for the damn thing to activate. and Quicksteps don't always go the same distance (REAL frustrating in the first segment of Adabat.))

Then I deleted my file (So I could get trophies, the file was from the same system but from a different profile, so it treated it as foreign.)

I'm Enjoying the day stages more now (Because I'm not leveling up my speed, last time I went too damn fast that I couldn't see [parasitic bomb], always hitting stuff on the sides because of the blur and trip steps because of lighting.)

Naturally, that doesn't really help with the abundance of slowdown (I can't help that though, I blame SEGA for skimping out on the Porting process.)

Lesse, in the past few weeks:

Spider-Man 2 (GameCube)
One of the better licensed games out there. Beat the story in a few days. My controller completely broke shortly after. Go figure.

Medal of Honour Frontline

Was testing the new GameCube controller I bought about a week after my last one broke. Haven't touched this one in ages. Playing it again, I really wish there was the option to increase sensitivity.

Star Wars: Dark Forces
Got around to configuring it to start-up windowed. Game is now lag-free and damn good fun. Though there's no option to change the controls whatsoever, so I have to get all old school and aim with the Numpad (but it is a DOS game, so that's a given really).

Star Wars Jedi Knight: Mysteries of the Sith
Beat the original Jedi Knight some time ago. This one seems to add a fair bit in the way of Force Powers... not that I'll really use anything other than Heal and Jump. Lightsabre kinda sucks due to the random input lag it seems to get.

Unreal Tournament 2004
Bought this back in mid-January. I love everything about it.

Left 4 Dead 2
I get a pretty bad framerate that's barely playable, so I think I'll be saving this along with UT3 for when I get a newer machine.

Painkiller: Black Edition
Picked this up after reading about Bulletstorm and how it's apparently a spiritual successor to this game. It's pretty mindless, but incredibly satisfying. Also one of few Shooters I've played where the Melee/Starting weapon remains useful throughout the whole thing.

They might, but seeings how Wii doesn't officially support patching/updating the actual games, games with Mii support released before the update (of which there are tons) still wouldn't work with the new Miis, even if those Miis could reside on the Wii console.

That wouldn't be a terribly big deal, they could just make it so you could make New Mii's/Update Old ones, but allow the ones that don't have new pieces to still be used in games that only supported the old ones.

So what's the problem then? All they'd have to do would be to make certain Miis unuseable in certain games.

...instead of making Miis unuseable in their own home console.

It's been a while, but our intrepid bounty hunters are still exploring the castle in Wizardry 6.  During the exploration (and mapping), the bounty hunters fought various monsters and the occasional rogue.  Zuckuss almost tried to unlock a door with Sneeze and then Dengar almost tried to use an arrow to unlock a gate.  It seems that those two have been messing around with Zuckuss's alchemist herbs for a bit too long. 

Shortly afterward, Dengar searched an alcove and found a short bow and 68 arrows.  Since he already has a longbow, which was bought to replace his old short bow, then he's going to sell this short bow.  And of course, Greedo plans to steal from the merchant in the basement after the transaction.  After some more exploring, the group climbed to the top of another tower.  On the ledge was a stinking, nasty, yucky rotting carcass.  It was so decayed that it was near impossible to tell what it was, so the group decides to inspect it to determine cause of death.

The carcass is moved, releases a wave of putrid stench, and causes Bossk and Zuckuss to vomit, and thus inflict 2 damage on each of them.  Bossk then kicks the bloated carcass off of the ledge and it splatters in the moat far below.  We have a hunch that the denizen of the moat, whatever it may be, is the cause of death for that body.

The group fights some monsters and Greedo finds six dirks to add to his arsenal.  4-LOM then gained a level and learned Direction.  He can now function as a compass, which is quite useful for mapping the dungeons.

Shadow's Story was pathetically easy, it just took a while. Plus the occasional slow-as-[tornado fang] vehicle segment.
Silver's Story was too frustrating at times, because sometimes throwing stuff didn't register correctly, and as such It would just drop to the ground or bounce off the enemy.

I just don't like the Sonic Stages that much. Turns on a dime way too often.

Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars is one of my favorite Wii games and was worth all the trouble I went through to find a copy. Just unlocked Frank West and he's so freaking hilarious! Throwing shopping carts as projectiles, putting on a Mega Man costume and shouting "REAL MEGA BUSTER!!!", stuffing a Sever Bot head on fools and ramming them into a horde of zombies! Frank is comedy GOLD! I also unlocked Zero and as expected, he's AWESOME! Of course the entire roster of fighters here is crazy awesome. Playing as all the different Tatsunoko characters, makes me wanna read up on them since Ken the Eagle was the only one who looked familiar to me. I honestly don't think the unknown characters hurts the game at all since they are pretty fun to play as.

Medal of Honor European Assault

Used to play the multiplayer a lot with my friends, but this is my first time bothering with the campaign now that I got my own copy. It's quite fun, with a more open and non-linear style compared to Frontline. Enemies are also a lot smarter it seems, and able to kill you rather quickly. The fighting is much more tactical than other shooters I've played. I suppose it's more realistic in that sense then. Thinking of trying Rising Sun next if it can run on NeoGamma at all.

Also played some Mario Power Tennis. The Power Shot cutscenes get annoying really fast. I can see why there's an option to disable the moves entirely on Exhibition. Would've been nice to add that to Tournament as well. Matches drag out too long otherwise, what with the Defensive Power Shots being incredibly cheap and near impossible at missing the ball.

Pokemon Emerald and Platinum, as usual.

In Emerald: Well, I somehow found a Ralts as my first pokemon to catch. Lucky me. I've also assembled a team of Zigzagoon, Wurmple (Evolved into Silcoon), and Marill. Along with Torchic, I've been grinding so I could beat Roxanne. Mostly, I'm trying to grind Marill until she learns Water Gun, and Ralts is a pretty high level herself. I've been keeping Torchic on the side, to use only in a pinch, since he's my highest level. I've pretty much been wasting the other two to hell.


In Platinum: Having Pal-Parked all the legendaries except one of the Lati's, I'm planning on cloning whichever lati I find in Emerald, then GTS'ing for the other one in Platinum. I found out Regigigas is a total waste of space, and I dumped him in a box to die. But really, I had to literally catch and bring in a Lv. 2 Starly to safely bring down his HP. Right now, I have nothing better to do than screw around with that condo thing in Resort Area. I might get back on trying to find out how the hell to get to Heatran, or start tracking the Legendary Bird Trio, but not right now.

Two days ago, Monster Hunter Tri finally broke me.  Got waaay too tired of camping for the same damn three swords (Rusted, Worn, and Alatreon Star), and getting absolutely nowhere (11 shard weapons, 6 of which are Greatswords, none were Sword And Shield; also 5 Azure Dragongems and 2 Webbing, nice), so I sharked the game for them.  I'll return to playing nice afterwards.

Yesterday, I picked up 3D Rabbids and their time traveling washing machine.  It's a lot of fun, though a bit repetitive.  I think 15 stages to a world is pushing it.  Still, they're just as zany and lovable as ever.  Nice to see Ubi using 3D cutscenes, something Capcom skipped with SSF4.

Opinions vary.  I'd say it kicks the crap out of Rabbids Go Home, but I don't envision many 3DS late-adopters will feel the need to backtrack to it.

First of all check controls in the manual; the game doesn't bother telling you how to run until you're halfway through it, and neglecting that will make the first half drag a bit.  It's a little lacking in variety (61 stages across only 4 time periods; no "bosses" to speak of), and doesn't feature the best record-keeping (can't see cleared trophies/missions without selecting the stage; no video gallery).  Still, the visuals are crisp, the Rabbids are zany as ever, the easter-egg unlock requirements are reasonable, there's a gazillion costumes to wear in-game (can mix-and-match head and body parts) and the game's overall handling is solid.  Challenge is pretty low; health is generous and extra lives are plentiful, though you may find a tricky death trap here and there.

That or if you want to grab a new pop-up sidescroller, as opposed to waiting for the e-Shop to apply said effect to old games.

But yeah, for Rabbids fans, it's well worth the purchase.  More so than the Wii version, IMHO, if only because four minigame compilations of the same franchise wear a bit stale for me (and I was none too fond of TV Party's menu organization/lack thereof).

Certain parts of the single player use a different file for character's textures/models and movesets. They're in the same folder IIRC. Singleplayer ones are .pac and multiplayer ones are .pcs. I think the only real difference other than filename extension is the compression on them.

Well, some things happened in this evening's installment of Wizardry 6: Bane of the Cosmic Forge.  After numerous battles, including one against giant wyrms [sic], Dengar finally caught up with everyone in terms of level.  He is now at Level 6 and he learned Poison.  So, he can share some of Zuckuss's spells.

Shortly afterward, the crew remembered a poster from another part of the dungeon; someone named "L'Montes" was looking for a "Snoopcheri."  So, on a hunch, the bounty hunters trek to the "Scaredy Tower" where the mysterious person is hiding behind the door.  Bossk says "Snoopcheri" and the door opens.  A tall, stalwart man named L'Montes steps out and inquires about Snoopcheri.  So, Bossk hands over the stuffed beagle that he had been toting around.

"Snoopcheri!" says L'Montes, "Back in my arms at last!"

As reward, Bossk was given a silver key with which to unlock the Captain's cell.

The only problem now is finding the Captain's cell, so the bounty hunters returned to scouting the castle.

The intrepid band of bounty hunters have fought their way to another section of the dungeon in Wizardry 6: Bane of the Cosmic Forge.  After vanquishing some foes, they come across a chest.  Greedo disarms the chest and opens it, revealing treasure.  The gold was divided up evenly, IG-88 got an anointed robe to add to his arsenal.  Of the party, he was the only one who could equip the item, as between him and Bossk, IG-88 is, oddly, the most pious.  Zuckuss equipped an Amulet of Night and was given the Book of Ramm, as he has the highest stat in Scribe and can thus read books. So, Zuckuss reads the Book of Ramm:

"O first night of Ramm
And second born Ramm again,
Find third upon thy altar
Burning bright!

"Where fourth night of wands
Bears fifth magik sun again
Is when thy graven altar
Shall blossom into night!"

The words are starkly reminiscent of the strange symbols the party had seen on an altar before...  The group hurries to the altar and Bossk, following the words Zuckuss had read, presses the symbols in order:  Ram's head, ram's head, flaming ord, magic staff, flaming orb.

The altar drops into the floor and reveals a pit.  Ever the adventurers, the group drop into the dark pit.  They hit the bottom with a thud (and 4 to 6 damage dealt to each member) and see a gate open in the distance.  Then, a giant snake appears.  It was time for a battle!  Bossk melees the snake with his claymore and IG-88 attacks with the Sword of Striking.  Greedo thrusts with his cutlass as Dengar defends with his spear.  4-LOM uses his sling to launch stones at the creature and Zuckuss uses Blinding Flash to thus blind the snake.  The snake vainly attacks, gets a hit off of Zuckuss (who later casts Heal Wounds on himself), while the rest beat the crap out of it.  After the battle, the group assesses their surroundings and leave the chamber.  It was time to explore this new level.

And also time to map it.

Our intrepid band of bounty hunters are currently exploring a labyrinthine network of twisty little passageways that all look alike™ in Wizardry 6.   Dengar, while searching a room, tripped over something and found it to be a pick axe.  So, he gives it to Bossk, who uses it to break down a wall, which reveals even more twisty little passageways that all look alike™.  While exploring, the group happen upon a band of tribal women, who, to the bounty hunters' dismay, run for it.  The bounty hunters chase down the women and find that they had crossed a wide chasm and were in the process of rolling up their rope bridge and leaving.  Thus, it was back to exploring the dungeon and no rolls in the hay for the party.

The group fight some dungeon leeches.  Zuckuss kills most of them, while Bossk and Greedo get the last two hits.  Then, Greedo levels up.  He is now at Level 7 with the rank of Hiwayman.  The group explore and fight some more.  Then, in one chamber, where the ceiling opens up into blackness, Dengar spies something shiny.  The key to the belfry!  He adds it to his collection of keys and off they go.

The bounty hunters stop for a rest and are promptly attacked by two zombies.  4-LOM and IG-88 get some hits in, as they were the first to wake up.  Then Bossk wakes up and dispatches the zombies.  The rest of the party awaken and it's back to exploring the twisty little passageways that all look alike™.

Oh yes, and Dengar was singing Workin' in a Coal Mine until Bossk told him to knock it off.

10 is INFINITELY superior to 9.  9 has a female Robot Master and a ludicrously overpowered arsenal; whatever else 9 did, 10 did better.

The original Japanese version of Acceleration of SUGURI X-Edition since I'm trying to unlock all characters and share the unlocked stuff with people. I got Hime, Sora, Suguri-SP, and NoName unlocked, now it's just that broken dog QP that's left for unlockable characters. Oh yeah, Acceleration of SUGURI is getting a sequel (http://daidai.moo.jp/aos2/aos2index.html), hopefully by Summer Comiket 80.

Hard Corps: Uprising since I'm trying to help a friend out, but it's been not looking so well since we hardly get a chance to play this game together... Symphony of the Night, and remembering why I hate playing as Richter Belmont so much... X( The Beat Hazard demo to trip out on the raving madness of the game.

The bounty hunters continue to map the fortress's underbelly in Wizardry 6: Bane of the Cosmic Forge.  Another portion of the dungeon had been mapped, and treasure acquired along the way.  After a battle against some wyrms [sic], Bossk and IG-88 gained their levels.  They are now level 7 fighters with the rank of Marauder.  Dengar searches the room and finds a key to add to his collection. 

After some more exploration, Dengar spies something unusual about the wall.  It appeared that someone had excavated it, then covered it back up.  So, Dengar swings his pick axe and knocks the wall down.  Behind it was a small chamber with a chest.  Greedo inspected the chest and disarmed the trap.  Within the chest was a bastard sword, which was given to IG-88 to replace his Sword of Striking; a steel helm, which Bossk equipped (his feathered hat was traded to 4-LOM); three Light Heals, which went to 4-LOM, and a Terror Scroll that was given to Zuckuss.  The bounty hunters camp out in that small chamber and continue their quest after a nap.

They go back to a locked gate they had seen earlier and Dengar uses his new key to grant them passage.  Inside the gate is a chamber with four cell doors and shackles.  Dengar goes to each and every door and tries to unsuccessfully unlock them with each and every single key that he has.  Now, since Dengar is carrying all of the keys, he clinks like a school janitor and would sink like a stone in water.  He has seven iron keys, two copper keys, two silver keys, a Key of Spades, the key to the bell tower, and the dungeon key.  So, he spent several minutes before each door, trying to use every single one of his keys.

Bossk: Can't you go any faster?

Zuckuss: While we're still young!

So, the doors in the dungeon stay locked and they continue their exploration.  After a few more battles, Zuckuss gains a level.  He's now a level 7 alchemist with the rank of Adept and had learned Cure Paralysis.  The group continues on their way, fighting baddies while I work on a spell effectiveness chart for later use.  As for what our intrepid mercenaries will encounter next?  That will have to wait til the next exciting installment of Wizardry 6: Bane of the Cosmic Forge.

Rockmen R: Dr. Wily's Counterattack. Finally I get to play the full game. 8)

Crescent Pale Mist (original PC version). Starting over because these viral attacks on my brother's PC killed most of my saved game and I had 7,000 enemies killed and I was starting to get close to the 10,000 kills requirement for the Fear difficulty.

Acceleration of SUGURI (original PC version). Got all characters and Extra Stories unlocked for both the base game and X-Edition expansion pack.

Bayonetta. Got a print out copy of Tzepish's Collectibles Guide (http://www.gamefaqs.com/xbox360/946346-bayonetta/faqs/59183) and my 100% Item Hunting is going swimmingly.

Symphony of the Night (XBLA). Finally got 100% on the achievements, making it the second 100% game I've gotten all the achievements for (although the ones that were driving me bonkers was the Seeker and Belmont's Revenge achievement). Now to have some fun glitching this game.

Mega Man games:

Mega Man X7.  Beating Red without taking damage using all of the characters on hard sealed my love for this game.  The excellent graphics put icing on a sweet cake.

Mega Man X8.  I love X's Neutral Armor, the navigators, Sigma, the rock music, and the graphics so much that I am not letting this game go.

Mega Man X Command Mission.  I love using X, Marino, and Massimo to hunt down Mavericks.  Beating Ninetails is so much fun under special conditions.

Non-Mega Man games:

Gauntet Dark Legacy.  I played this game every since it came out in the arcades in 1999 and still play it from time to time even today.

Tatsunoko vs. Capcom (both versions).  I love using Mega Man Volnutt and Casshern in these games.  It is like an addiction for me.

Don't worry bout killing people on accident in inFAMOUS, most of the time you can heal people.

And besides, once you do a good run its much easier to do an evil run, since people are dickheads to you anyway right at the start.

It was how Kharaxel quoted me.  If he just quoted the second part of my X7 sentence, then I would have only gotten the impression that he only referred to graphics itself and not necessarily why I got back into X7. 

Fair enough?

That said, I got back into playing Gauntlet Legends for the PS1.  The graphics were not best and the gameplay was nowhere near the level of the arcades, but I appreciate the nostalgia and music of the game.

The 360 Slim is so great, and it's quiet too. If you have a converter cable for a 360 Elite AC Adapter, you can use that AC Adapter for the 360 Slim instead and it will be even more quiet. There hasn't been any problems with the 360 at all. I take good care of my system. ^^

Bunny Must Die ~ Chelsea and the 7Devils. My brother's PC was having some odd problems so I used system restore on it. Fixed the problems, killed my Bunny Must Die game (with all the other games on the PC instead of the external 1TB hard drive like Dead Space 2 and Rosenkreuzstilette) and most of the saved progress. Now I'm afraid that I have to fight those pumpkin bosses in the tower area again for the achievements (and I was right on fighting Halloween Alice, too).. X(

La-Mulana (PC version). Also died with Bunny Must Die, but I'm making somewhat quick recovery (even though I'm still at the beginning of the game). Strangely, La-Mulana is working better than it did before now that fullscreen mode isn't messing up the colors.

Left 4 Dead 2. Ugh! I want to play this game again with my buddies online. I had some good laughs when we played this, I miss it. I want my Gold membership back... ;O;

Rockman 7 FC. Man this is awesome (and free) re-creation of Mega Man 7 in 8-bit glory.

@Sakura Matou:
Not only is the Xbox 360 S (slim) quieter as Vixy pointed out, but if I recall correctly the motherboard on this Xbox 360 has a less RRoD ratio than the original fat Xbox 360. So generally it's a better Xbox 360, I'm glad I didn't bother to get one until now. Once Dust: Elysian Tail comes out, I can truly say "I have no regrets".

I'm definitely adding Half-Minute Hero to my wishlist, this game's fun. ^^

To save your game, you need to buy an MSX ROM in the game called [Game Master]. It's in one of the shops in the Surface area at the beginning of the game for 10 coins. Once you have it, equip it to one of your MSX slots and talk to Elder Xelpud to save your game.  [Game Master] can only let you save on Slot 0, however; you have to find [Game Master 2] if you want to save in all save slots.

For teleporting through the different areas of the game, you need: the Hand Scanner (again it's in one of the shops in the beginning of the game); the Grail (it's in the Guidance Gate, first area of La-Mulana); the and the Glyph Reader (without it, you can't activate the teleporters), which costs you 100 coins. A good way to rack up some money is find some pots in the Guidance Gate and smash them for the 10 coins they have, return to the Surface, save, re-load your game, repeat.

Back on topic: Still playing Beat Hazard Ultra, Bayonetta, and Symphony of the Night. I just re-started playing Iji (http://www.remar.se/daniel/iji.php) after my PC's system restore killed it and still figuring out what am I suppose to do in La-Mulana.

Since the Uncharted 3 beta is no longer available, i went right to playing Uncharted 2's multiplayer. I have to say that the Kickback options and better varieties of boosters made the beta more enjoyable than 2. Uncharted 2's multiplayer maps were too open for my tastes, making it a lot harder to hide or snipe without someone killing you when you finally find a suitable spot. Something that the beta was a lot better in.

Just finished Bayonetta on Hard mode recently and I'm starting my crow-hunting in Non-Stop Infinite Climax. Prior to that...

[spoiler=Bayonetta Secret Boss]During my Hard mode course, I got the 10,000,000 Halos requirement for the Platinum Ticket at Chapter XII. And boy, let me tell, the EX Boss in this game is hard if not cheap as [tornado fang]. The game is forced to Non-Stop Infinite Climax, so Witch Time is blocked whenever you dodge an attack. Second, because the area you fight in is considered Alfheim, you can't use items to save your ass when you really needed it the most (and believe me, this cheap mo-fo will make you beg to use a Mega Herb Lollipop). And when the EX Boss is close to dying, things really get [tornado fang]'d up and cheap; the boss can do an Akuma-ish grab where it kills your HP to 1 (like Heartless Angel from FF7 or KH2) and it really begins to be a [Top Spin] and spans a shitload of attacks at you.

After MANY attempts, I finally beaten the sonuvabitch with only just Shuraba, Durga, Evil Harvest Rosary, and Pully's Butterfly, and I couldn't be more happier than a fat kid on a Happy Meal when I finally beat him.[/spoiler]

I just finished Bunny Must Die today with 100%, now to start Chelsea and the 7Devils to bring the story to it's conclusion. I'm also playing around with Virtual-ON: Oratorio Tangram demo because I'm considering into getting it if it goes on sale (and I get my Gold membership back).

NieR

A bit back an... acquaintance was insisting I get this. So, with Rogers apparently having a 2-for-1 rental deal, I figured I'd finally try it. I do not regret getting it. It's pretty damn good. In fact I can't think of anything negative to say. Unlike most Hack N' Slashers I've played, the enemies haven't gotten to the point of rage-inducing annoyance late in the game. The levelling system is simple enough for even me to use right. This is coming from someone that avoids RPGs like the Plague. One aspect in particular I enjoy, like most games, is the music. I'm seemingly a sucker for female vocals, so first hearing it in the village you start at and the main field just north was most pleasant. The story is also intriguing, and each character has a unique design and personality that makes them rather memorable (♥ Kainé, foul-mouthed as she is).

Other game I rented was Sonic Unleashed (PS3 ver.)

Played Colours before this one, and I find myself much preferring it. Not everyone has that good of reaction time, so the excessive [parasitic bomb] coming out of nowhere and "Press this to not screw up/die" just does not thrill me. The Werehog stages meanwhile I don't mind at all. Having just played God of War not long before this, I feel right at home.Well, aside from constantly hitting the right analogue stick, expecting it to make me roll, only to twitch the camera. But yeah overall, I really hope the stages in Generations are more like Colours' instead of this.
Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread
Post by: Police Girl on August 17, 2011, 12:54:36 AM
One thing that will help with the QTE's in the Werehog stages is to weaken your enemies as much as possible.

If you have troubles with the reaction time I would suggest not upgrading your speed until after you've beaten the game, and focus on upgrading Werehog instead (Occasionally dumping some EXP into Ring Energy is also advised.)

Just be lucky that the game isn't as hard as Eggmanland throughout.

I was mainly having issues just getting through the horde of Vore's and Shamblers.

Also I kept getting hit by a spike in the wall that popped out a little too fast for me to see.

What my main problem in the game was, though, was those damn fiends taking over half of my health off in a single jump.

Oh, and Rotfish, little bastards freaked me the hell out, made me not want to go into any water.

Agreed, wonderful enemy they are, you can't spam grenades and rockets on them because its more of a waste then it is helpful. Which is nice since its probably the first large enemy in an Id game that you can't just lob explosives at for instant victory, it actually takes time.

I think i'll tackle the mission packs before heading onto Quake II and Strogg storyline.

From what I can tell they're pretty cheap.

I got all of them on steam in one flat purchase along with the doom games, so I can definitely say that for the time i've put into them they've been more than worth the money.

Source ports help too, because now Doom plays a lot better and Quake can be a clean resolution with its music restored.

Quake II runs fine too, but trying to put it in my native screen resolution with the Source port i'm using keeps knocking it out of Fullscreen.

1024x1280 looks fine though so I'm not really worrying about it.

Dodge Roll along with doing that counter attack where Terra slams his keyblade on the ground. And if you're quick enough, you could fit in at least one Shot Lock command. Rinse and repeat. Worked wonders for me. In fact, many of the tough battles in the game relied heavily on countering.

Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread
Post by: Phi on September 06, 2011, 11:21:15 PM
Cartwheeling became mandatory when he used his shadow to come up from the ground to grab you (or whatever it did, never once got caught by it). I actually found both phases of that battle to be boring. They could have made the entire thing a cutscene and it would've been fine.

That and I personally thought Aqua had the worst attack layout out of the three. I only got her to around level 40 by the end.

Hi.

Also, I watched my friend beat BBS himself at my place, and he beat the crap out of Terranort. It was crazy.
SEEKER MINES! SEEKER MINES EVERYWHERE!
Then we went for that secret boss AKA SUPERCHARGED VANITAS... and I couldn't stop laughing because he (my friend) went down with two hits the first time, and on the second he didn't have the chance to even do anything. He went with Aqua btw.

Also, I'm now on Radiant Garden in Ven's story mode. Gonna hunt down that giant mega-zord unversed and kick his ass (again). But probably later cuz now I've had enough a bit.

It's weird, I still haven't been able to beat "Mysterious Figure" or Vanitas Sentiment, but I've lasted significantly longer on MF.

Vanitas kills me in one hit every time and MF seemingly "takes his time" killing you, with each lightning-fast attack of his taking chunks outta your health bar. Then I heal myself, dodge roll around a little bit, and he catches me while doing the same attacks. Both are impossible for me at this point, and I don't have the will or patience to try again. Must have tried at least 70 times fighting MF, barely getting him down to half-life.

Definitely. Like I said in the KH thread, the ending of Terra's story IMO, is the best part about the game. It was really well done.

Vanitas Sentiment is pathetically easy to beat because he never dodges mines, he just runs right over them.

I do like Aqua; Terra's too slow and his jumping skills are pathetic. But my favorite has to be Ventus, even if he's basically just Sora/Roxas for his playstyle. What can I say, I'm used to that by now. XD

Also, the only person I got above 40 was Ventus. I didn't for Aqua because I was able to use her effectively enough to beat her storyline (and the Final Episode) with her at like 36 or so, and Terra I just beasted through with brute force (and dodging like mad).

To each their own. There are a lot of people who agree with you, but I never got used to her move set. I found Ven to be the most efficient to use. Not as powerful as Terra, but quicker and more agile.

Aqua felt the weakest to me.

Focusing on Quake Mission Pack 1: Scourge of Armagon.

Pretty good so far, like the addition of more techbase levels. About 3 levels in (the 1st five levels are Techbase) more of the Quake Realm Monsters start showing up. Shamblers and Zombies at first, the next level in starts putting those [tornado fang]ing rotfish in.

I think I'm going to take a break. The music may be more awesome/badass and less creepy but that doesn't stop those Rotfucks from ruining my day. It wouldn't be so bad if I could blast or see those fuckers before I go underwater, but alas the water is a solid shape and I'll never be able to shoot them out before I'm knee deep in the freaks.

Like OoT, it's on the Wii for a quarter of the price.  You're paying for the makeover and the fact that it's portable.  To me it's well worth it; the presentation is much better and the shorter, replayable "arcade style" of Star Fox 64 is a better fit for a handheld.  I predict this will be my main 3DS game until either Mario, Sonic, or Pit provide something original.

Unlike OoT, they didn't pull any punches so far as graphics go (besides maybe the fact that the in-ship animal heads still don't have mouths, but I think that's getting nitpicky); the visuals are GORGEOUS.  Soundtrack is remastered as well, and awesome.  All bosses have their names and descriptions displayed at the start of battle, kinda like a console Zelda game.  Fortuna was renamed Fichina.  The game auto-saves at every stage, so if you get interrupted, you're not losing much.

I can't really test the battle mode since I lack people to play with locally.  There is a Vs. CPU option, but I can't get that into it.  Landmaster and rocket launcher seem to be gone.

There's a new Score Attack mode, so you can replay any stage you want whenever.  They also added a new "Trial Run" course, a long enclosed corridor with obstacles to dodge (kinda like flying in the giant Space Armada ships on the SNES), where three collisions = failure.  The original Training course is now required before starting your first game for some reason.

The game has "3DS Mode" and "N64 mode" with separate medal counts.  I'm guessing that's just a fancy way of saying Easy/Normal, except that the gyro controls only work in 3DS Mode.

Just started Thief: The Dark Project.. er rather, "Thief Gold". Same thing just with some extra missions. I was a bit worrisome at how I'd do with 1st-person stealth after my brief skirmish with Deus Ex (which I will very slowly get all the way through), but this plays just fine. Standing in a little shadow in a corner and being nigh invisible is amusingly fun. The guards have some funny chatter between each other. I dunno what the hell a "taffer" is but I'm guessing something rather insulting in this game's universe. I look forward to being scared shitless by the later levels/games.

Also going to completely start over in NieR today. Apparently the weapon I'm missing to unlock Ending C and D is one I should've gotten automatically as part of the story. Since the New Game Plus always starts me after the point I get it, I'm forever stuck at 97%. Whatever though, I wanted to maybe do all those sidequests I missed in the 1st half anyways.

Mirby, I didn't mean that.

I meant that Wayforward and Telltale handle properties that are mostly based on old cartoons, movies, shows, comics, old games... stuff that isn't theirs. Stuff that most of the time, you'd see handed to EA or Activision, stuff like game movie adaptations, the Harry Potter and Transformers movie games, that kind of stuff! Or follow-ups of old classics, stuff that normally gets really shitty in the transition. I'm not gonna give "movie games" as the only example, since Wayforward have games based on Barbie, Spongebob, Despicable Me... just to give an example. Thing is, they turn what you'd normally consider shovelware, into REALLY good games, that are really faithful to their original franchise. Same with Telltale, who have revitalized Sam & Max, Monkey Island, Back to the Future and many others successfully. And will be handling The Walking Dead and Jurassic Park soon.

There are alot of companies that make good games and handle good franchises, like Platinum Games, Bungie, Bethesda, Naughty Dog... But I meant those two as an example of being able to make games based on any kind of franchise, and succeeding.

Tried starting the FMP route, got stuck on the first boss. The characters seem intresting enough so I'm probably going to have to give that a watch sometime.

Plowing through the FMP Route on ACE:R.

I must say, DAT ARBALEST. Even though it can't fly being able to launch yourself into the sky towards enemies using only your knife is [tornado fang]ing fun.

Shame its a piece of [parasitic bomb] in the Space stages, thing moves so slow the Bird thing kills me before I can reach it.

I must say, its going to be a fun challenge trying to restrict myself from using units that aren't from the series I started with as much as possible (Support Units can be whatever, I'm just trying to keep player units to the series I'm playing in.) So far I've only made three exceptions, Used Lancelot Albion in the sky stage before the split route due to no ground units allowed, and Gainer in the stage with that [tornado fang]ing bird thing since I could barely move with Arbalest, and the space stage after that I used C.C.'s Akatsuki because Arbalest hates space and I hadn't used C.C. once as a player character.

Just got to the 3rd level of the combined path in ACE:R on my Zeta Gundam Playthrough (4th Playthrough)

So far... I don't really like the Zeta Gundam Units not having Automatic guns, and Amuro's Gundam from Char's Counterattack absolutely sucks even though its stats are maxed out.

On another note, I'm really getting sick of not being able to skip cutscenes that overindulge Macross Frontier characters, I get that their path goes straight to the top, but I feel they have more levels dedicated to them. And I'm in my 4th playthrough, I don't want to watch cutscenes, and not being able to skip everytime Ranka wants to sing, or being able to change the music in levels where she sings is getting annoying, I want to spam takatau M9 more, not listen to Jpop.

I think my next playthrough will involve me pressing foward into Macross Territory... as much as I'm going to want to shoot myself through it. The game is in no way bad I just don't like not being able to skip cutscenes THAT I'VE WATCHED MULTIPLE TIMES ALREADY!!!

Also, not looking foward to bird thing that appears for no reason later on, seriously does anybody know why that thing exists?

Killzone 3

Quite fun, but the graphics aren't as great as people used to claim.

Finished the Macross Frontier route in ACE:R. Really easy thanks to Alto's Spammy weapon. (I also took the chance to mess with the classic guren, nice attention to detail having the version you use in the beginning come with the repaired RWS Arm and the one you unlock having the original arm.)

Doing the Aquarion Route, pretty simple so far even though I'm on hard difficulty. I'll have to try out the new Zeta Gundam I got later.

That brings me to a little past halfway, just have Gundam SEED Destiny, Crossbone, Gainer, Macross Zero, and SRW OG to finish off.

It's pretty easy actually. The micro missiles of the ZERO and Messiah's are one of the  most broken weapons in the game, after Autumn's beam rifle. And as a plus the ZERO can use the missles in battleroid form which makes getting the 100 battleroid kills easy.

The hardest route to do at all on the higher difficulty is OGs.  Mainly due to that [tornado fang]ing third mission where you have to protect Autumn. Even on the easy setting it can be a pain.

I made a trophy guide on PS3Trophies.org, though never got the chance to do a video walk trhough. Just made one for the perfect run since people had an issue with that one for some reason.

Your odds seem to improve with different Sound/CDRom plugins; something to do with how the voice lines are read from the disc, I believe.  Finally got by after some tinkering.  But yeah, original hardware is best, it's too much of a crapshoot otherwise.

But, for any who like myself lack a Gameshark/DexDrive, I attached an ePSXe memory card file with #41 and the intro stage already cleared.

They've gained a couple of levels since I last played Skylanders..

Dark Spyro and Chop-Chop are both Lv8, with Stealth Elf not too far behind. Again, Eruptor is the lowest leveled character since most of the elemental-oriented challenges focused on Air, Water, Life, Undead, Magic, Tech, and Earth so far. Only at least twice I had to use him for the fire elemental challenge and the fire elemental challenge.

Dark on the other hand, due to the daily elemental EXP boosts was on magic and water, I took advantage of that by putting him on the second slot for the remainder of the playthrough, while Chop-Chop did most of the work. Since this is DARK Spyro, my guess that most of his combat was a hit-and-run stradegy, like most randged characters.

I seem to be more direct though, so Stealth Elf, Eruptor, and Chop-Chop were suited until the Hecktor challenges, which require you to speedrun a level within a certain time limit, with that you need a faster character, oh well. At least there are two chapters 100% done in two levels.

DBZ Ultimate Tenkaichi

The voice acting sounds like they simply took voice clips from DBZ (old voices) and Kai (new voices), and the character creation is lackluster and limited (but, with this being a first for a DBZ game, it's forgivable).

It'd be familiar to Torigeeks (Akira Toriyama fans who play just for his work) that have played the Dragon Quest games that had this type of customization before.

Meanwhile, I recently aquired Sonic Boom, which if I recall, is a griffin who lives up to his name. Hold the B button and he sends foes that fight close range flying, plus his air elemental prowess also helped with the elemental challenges, which brings me closer into completing the intro stage. I still need three more elements though (earth, fire, and tech) and I could manage that.

Skylanders can be considered to be a completionist's dream (or nightmare, considering there are 10+ characters to buy physically, which seems to cost $7.00 a piece) and each level contains three levels and a pair of challenge levels (which is indicated by a small, inclosed area) with their own tasks to partake. Each earning you a crystal if you complete it. So far the hardest bit was avoiding the cactuses due to the icy terrain of the obligitory ice world.

And time for a Level Update:

Apparently Skylanders is a good game? The main issue I seem to have with it is the fact that figurines = lives, and that you need to shell out more on top of an already expensive game for more 'lives'.
Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread

They've also bitched about Spyro's design, and that quite raises an eyebrow. Of course one has to buy all the characters, but you'd have to be mad for that.  XD

Plus Radiance is the currency, so if you can die once another Skylander can take over until you fork over the Radiance to revive your fallen Skylander. Died quite a few times for certain prediciments, at the end of the task, get to the goal, since they give you a time limit to leave the stage once you finish the appointed task(s). It's also good for upgrades and whatnot.

At least they got rotating platforms down, that can present quite a few intresting challenges if properly placed. It's just good platforming with a diffrent gimmick, which is all I can say. My final opinion will come once I take out Hecktor, though. He's on the 3DS, on the consolse you just fight Kaos, who sounds an awful lot like Invader Zim..

I picked up the special package; so at least money well spent (the one with the OST).

Say, the "Mysterious Boy" turned out to be a girl named Elh.. but I knew the giveaway right from the get-go, I've seen this gag before. Though, Lewis (Let's just call that "thing" that) seems to be a cross between Zerkom and Eva-01 from my prespective. I've also done the sub-plot in which Red works for a transvestite.

Another thing, being the last of your clan always sucks. Ask Vegeta. A LOT of puns though, "Star Dogs" for one.

For the character Red himself I'd say he's a reverse-werewolf. He's an anthromorphic dog in certain cases goes into this superhuman form, and merges with the mecha. He's also your typical freelancer.. but he can p. much be Captain Obvious at times. The backup characters do give more of a MMZ/MML feel more or so how you got the cool guy, the babe, and the guy always ready for a fight, along with Elh's bro, who fills Phantom's role (but doesn't die.. yet, I'm waiting; game).

Bruno was more or so a "COME AT ME BRO!" villan. Seriously, he has quite a hand thing going on there.. dunno what it is, but he looks like he's ready to claw someone's face off most of the time.. but can't shake the feeling Lewis was meant to mirror Bruno. Eh. Air Robo GP's a good way to build rings quick, and the best one's for me the purple mech. Anyway, game's a-okay for now. Thoughts for round 2 will come later~

Thief 2X: Shadows of the Metal Age

Certainly darker than the original Thief 2. Has plenty of violence and even low-polygon nudity. Pretty professional mod nonetheless. Manages to really capture the open-ended design of the official games, while also adding some new gimmicks/items that flow well with the existing formula. The story is also pretty decent and after watching some developer commentary, I really appreciate all the effort and detail that went into its placement alongside canon. Also I like how the menus are far more interesting than any of the originals.

You should try and get Boxing out of the way ASAP. Its the easiest way to gain stars (And unlock goodies).
If you have a Second GBA you get get the B Type stars out of the way too. (The same goes for Donkey Kong 3)
Its an easy 20 stars.

5 is the max you can get for one type and difficulty, Modern and Classic get 10 each divided between Easy and Hard mode.
So with Boxing, depending on which one you played you just need to play the other variety. With the 2P mode its even easier as you only need to start the game 5 times to get the stars.

Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception

Definitely seems to be a worthy sequel so far, but there's one minor thing that's really irking me. Every now and then I'll reach what seems to be a stealth segment, with Nate even muttering "Better do this quietly". But, despite that implication it seems getting spotted and having a large fight with enemies spawning everywhere is the only option. The one time I did manage to take out everyone quietly, the game refused to trigger the next cutscene, with my AI partner just sitting there doing nothing. Like, I know stealth wasn't a key point of the gameplay but, I feel.. I dunno, mislead. Maybe it's just my slight perfectionist instinct having just played through the Thief series.

Also played through Sonic CD on PSN today

The best thing it's got going for it is the music, really. The time travel gimmick is cool and all, but leaves the levels a nauseating clusterfuck. Wacky Workbench in particular just drives me nuts since I can't stand still for half a sec before getting shot to the ceiling at Mach 2. Stardust Speedway is also rather poorly executed in its gimmick I find. The famed Metal Sonic race ain't that great either. It's okay overall I s'pose, but now I'm definitely of the opinion that it's overrated.

I personally enjoyed Uncharted 2 far more, in terms of story and gun mechanics. I will admit that the added counter-combo system in 3 is a refreshing change, and much needed too. But the story sort of felt like they took an idea and just ran with it, not to mention the ending felt a bit anti-climatic. Uncharted 2's plot was much more fleshed out and presentable, and the gun mechanics felt more precise.

One thing in Uncharted 3 that stood out for me, however, is the superb online gameplay. Useful Kickbacks, booster options, amazingly detailed maps and other great mutliplayer content made the $60 worth it for me. Don't get me wrong though, I didn't feel Uncharted 3 was bad, but rather the single player campaign didn't live up to the expectations of the masterpiece that was Uncharted 2.

That's what I've been saying since forever.

The level design was almost as if they slapped it together quickly, and trying to Time Travel is inconvenient at times due to hills and various platforms in your way. On the flip side, the music is by far some of the best in the franchise, and I like the general dark atmosphere. Overall, Sonic CD is overated. It had a terrific concept, but was simply executed poorly.

Senko no Ronde.

This game just feels so unappreciated. I can understand people outside of Japan are not  the biggest Shoot 'em Up crowd, but why so much hate for this game. G.REV definitely tried to do something different and the masses are too busy with SSIV cop-outs to even care. The game's not bad at all once you learn the controls and how to play it. Jeez, I mean if anyone in the West can devote themselves to learn how to play Virtual-ON and all of its intricaties, then they should be more than capable to do the same with Senko no Ronde. Too bad there's no one playing the original (and the only person I know who plays this doesn't have Gold membership back yet) and the sequel is farking region-locked... Well just one more character to clear Story Mode and onto Score Attack.

Now to RE4: Wii Edition... </wii>

Otomedious Excellent. It feels like a downer compared to the original. Why take away the open-ended Stage Select, Sp. Attacks (from holding the Bomb button), the ability to take some damage before losing in a game like Siter Skain's Kamui, re-charge up your Bomb attacks and all that other stuff that made me get into the series in the first place... C'mon Iga, you guys know better than this... ;O;

I'm replaying Sonic 06 to restore my old save that I lost.

Shadow, why do you suck at everything? I did the level without losing a life give me my [tornado fang]ing S rank I deserve it.
Silver, you suffer from being slow and boring, but I'm not having as horrible a time with you as I did the first time around, at least now I can not die when playing as you.

I'd say I'm about 75% of the way done with getting that unrealistic 100%, Shadow's levels are going to be the end to my sanity (and my voice, holy [parasitic bomb].)

Last Episode beat, going back into End of the World to get the last silver medal and the S rank was a pain in the ass, I had to hit one of those eagle statues to get rid of the [tornado fang]ing vortex near where I needed to go, however it was a small bit lower from where I needed to be, so I thought I would jump on the air rail to get back up, and then it vanished right before I landed on it.

Well then, that pissed me off, I don't think I'll be attempting that again for a while.

Seeing as I forgot about a Sonic game to restore a wiped out save to, I'm going to be rushing through Sonic Adventure, after which I'll be powering through to restore the 125 Emblems I had, then going through a grueling Chao Grind because the stupid store won't keep Chao Fruit in stock permanently.

I am but not enough to comment on it, but since you pointed that out I guess I might as well.

Lets See, I'm playing Wario Land 4 occasionally on Hard, just finished Emerald Passage, probably going to move on to Topaz or Ruby next.

I also rushed through Zelda: Minish Cap after putting it off for so long, currently I'm wasting time Savescumming to get the rest of the Figurines to get the Heart Piece in that building. I'm also looking for the last few Kinstone Fusions but since I only have 6 left and haven't been keeping track of who I've fused with I don't think I'm going to find them.

Oh Right, I'm also playing Kirby's Return to Dreamland in Extra Mode. I think I'm going to take a break with it since I just finished it not too long ago.

Star Fox 64 on Virtual Console. :) Just finished playing it again and I did better than my previous run; Last time I took down 949 enemies, now 1,073 and managed to keep Falco's and Peppy's Arwing alive for all 7 stages with Slippy crashing and burning on the final stage (thanks to Andrew for swatting down Slippy's already crippled Awring like an annoying fly). This game is definitely right next to Sin and Punishment: Successor of the Earth in terms of great rail-shooters. Definitely want to get a 3DS for Star Fox 64 3D (if I ever get one that is).

-EDIT-
Earth Defense Force 2017. Finshed the Normal and Easy modes and almost half-way through Hard mode. Really wish there was a way to sort the arsenal of weapon you get in this game like DynaMarisa 3D does (granted Twilight Frontier made the game after EDF 2017), but that's just me being nit-picky... Still working on getting the WAVE MOTION (Waste And Vaporize Every Mofo Obliterating and Terrorising Innocent Organisms Now) Genocide Gun.

I was playing Zelda 2 until I got to the Island Palace boss.

A blue Iron Knuckle on a horse are you [tornado fang]ing serious, the horse part isn't hard since it just moves back and forth but once he's off his horse he just spams sword beams like he's on crack, none of the other blue Iron Knuckles do that I wish I could just downstab [twin slasher] him because that stupid [tornado fang]ing shield is making me want to pour battery acid on my palms.

I think I'll wait until Nintendo releases the updated NES games with save states because I'm not good enough at retro classics to be playing them.

Jump-slash his head and keep repeating. 99.9% of the time, the shield will not block your attack. You won't fail.

Every Iron Knuckle can be dealt with, by doing a jump-slash attack.
Even if you get hit by beams, you can use the Shield spell beforehand and still survive (while having a Life spell ready just in case).

If you need some extra tips, look at my no game over, no save run. (http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6B90F322F32DF413)

I was playing 3D Dot Game Heroes.
Then the Dash Circuit wore me out
Then Blockout pissed me off
Then the tentacle enemies in the Flame Temple irritated me
Then going through the flame temple 3-5 times having to re-do the entire thing because of the blocks resetting everytime ran my paitence thin
Then the dragon killed me twice.

Then I shut the game off.
Then I looked up how to get the Flame Wand I missed so I could go and get the Hero's Sword.
Then I forgot that Revival Point =/= Saving the game, so I was back at right before the Flame Temple.

Yeah, I'm never playing this game again.

Does not compute.

The flame temple is a test of paitence.

There are enemies in there that will knock all but half a heart out of you and take all your magic power, there are also those fun switches with the Red/Blue that make blocks rise/fall, the Darknut Equivilant enemy is in numerous places, though he also has the fun skill of running at you when he sees you and dashing at you if you try to run away from him.

If you at any point die before getting to the room before the boss and activating the teleporter, you have to start the whole damn temple over because the room that you need to pass through has those blocks set to the up position by default, so you need to go all the way back to where the switch was to set the blocks to go down.

Losing magic is a pain in the ass because in certain spots you need to use the Freeze Shader magic to destroy flames that impede your progress.

I didn't save anything in the temple because the game doesn't save upon death unless you choose not to continue (It should ask regardless what if i want to save and continue thats a [tornado fang]ing staple of the zelda-type game design.) And setting revival points doesn't save, again that's real stupid.
I don't even understand why no autosave, or a save menu its not like the select button is being used for anything.

I got through that hell and didn't save, I don't really want to go through again. Guess it helps that I don't have to worry about ever playing spelunker mode since I sure as hell wouldn't be able to beat it.

Prismatic Solid (XBLIG). Miraculously, I managed to actually get the "☆Clear 3rd round" and "☆Score 1,000,000" pseudo-PSN Trophies in this game, which are not easy to accomplish by the way (and maybe one of the hardest next to "☆Clear EXTRA with no miss" and yet haven't succeed in doing).

[spoiler=How it all went down]At first I was like "You know, I haven't played this game in a good while, so let's see what I can do," then during the third round scoring over 760,000+ was I like "Hey maybe I can do it this time and beat the third round with 1,000,000 points". Then I got to Stage 4 - ATOM's triple boss which was a complete nightmare with frickin' laser spamming and 7-pixel crack of safety hardly visable on this sucky 4:3 SDTV. "Oh $%&#!!" was exactly going on in my head as soon those -- THINGS took my last 4 lives with little effort. Thankfully I lived through the laser beam onslaught and made it to Stage 5 - SHAFT with 2 lives and 1,000,000+ points, but when things became intense again with the second and third Polyhedrons, I was like "Please God, don't let those damn polygonal abominations kill me here when I've come so close getting that pseudo-Trophy". Finally I let out a sigh of relief knowing I finished the third round... only to be introduced  how nightmare-ish Round 4 is (lost on Stage 2 - WATER).[/spoiler]

For a buck (80 Microsoft Points), this old-school shooter is definitely worth it.

Well i decided to go back to 3D Dot Game Heroes, feeling confident after beating Zelda 2 I figured the game deserved to get another chance.
Good thing I decided to pick up a new sword, I was able to get through the Flame Temple without dying.

So now I'm at the near end of the game, One temple and the Dark Tower left to beat, and naturally some more minigames from hell, and some pointless sidequests with pointless key items so I can hopefully get all of the swords in this one go so I don't have to do the minigames from hell again to get the swords that come from those.

Posted on: February 21, 2012, 05:45:49 AM
Well after a frustrating revelation of missing one single key item about halfway through the game I missed out on collecting the coveted Moon Sword and grinding small blocks to obtain the last few swords. Oh well, got a completed bestiary so I don't have to worry about it later.

Starting on FROM Mode, I intend on following the walkthrough on Gamefaqs so I don't miss a single [tornado fang]ing thing, because I really don't want to do Dash Circuit again (Even though I have improved, less resets and it appears my twitchy reflexes are coming back.) The game is going a lot faster now, no deaths (Any that do happen are not continued from, might as well go for a few trophies.), a lot more money, all thanks to buying the Excalibur sword from King Block in my first playthrough (The Small Block Swords are the only ones that cross over to a new save), though I will say its rather [tornado fang]ing annoying that they upped the amount of enemies that appear in the overworld, Blue Dragons and Crystal Slimes appear more often, which is nice to get Small Blocks/Money, but those Dragons can rip you apart easily. And a lot of the areas now have Cloudon enemies, fast, annoying fuckers that float above you and shoot you with Lightning, since the spawn rate has increased you can occasionally find an area with 6-7 of these just clumped together, which is a pain since you can't kill them until you beat the Aqua Temple and get Freeze, but it takes a lot of magic.

I'm right back to the point at where I ragequit, it shouldn't be too bad this time though.

Alright, time for me to catch up on everything.

I beat FROM mode in 3D Dot Game Heroes, collected all of the swords, and have essentially beaten the game 100%. I have Spelunker Mode to play, which will be tough but with a strong sword right at the beginning it shouldn't be too difficult.

I went back to Metroid and got the 2nd Best Ending. Which is probably the best that I'll get for a very long time as I really don't enjoy playing through Metroid 1 thanks to Kraid's lair. If it weren't for that crappy thing with the blocks it really wouldn't be so bad.

Currently I'm playing LittleBigPlanet 2 to collect the rest of the trophies. I only have 1 Silver, 4 Bronze, and 1 Gold left.

Panzer Dragoon Orta (original Xbox). Damn, why didn't I track this one down 7 years ago when I had the old, fat, bloated piece of gaming machinery that is the old Xbox (I even watched an episode of Cheat! on G4TV featuring among other games before Cory Rouse got replaced). To me, this game is the Xbox's equivalent to Sin and Punishment: Successor of the Earth except with dragons and healthy dose of RayStorm-esque Macross missile masacre thrown in for good measure. Even by standards, this game still looks and runs great (aside from the occasional crashing and graphical glitching of running it on an Xbox 360, though the crashing could be the used disc that I unfortunately got), the soundtrack is beautiful, and Pandora's Box has plenty of unlockables and secrets to keep any dragon-rider happy for months to come (even the original Panzer Dragoon from the Sega Saturn is unlockable). This game is highly recommended.

I finished playing Journey. The most profound and amazing 3 hours of my life.

The music score, lighting, atmosphere, flying, co-operative play and really everything about it is incredible. It's a fun pick-up and-play game for sure. Meeting up with nameless folks from around the world to experience the beauty with you feels great.

Finishing up the collection of the Precursor Orbs in Jak 3. Which will conclude my run through the Jak and Daxter Collection.

EDIT: Beat it, finished with the Trilogy, I can't believe I missed these during the PS2 era, other than Jak 2 I really enjoyed the series (I liked the story in Jak 2, just not the gameplay.)

Your next Jak game should be Daxter. I didn't find it as addictive as the PS2 series, but it was still fun.

The only small flaw with Daxter (PSP) is that it's not so easy to backtrack to previous levels and collect everything, but it can be done through chapter/level select.

Crescent Pale Mist (PC). Managed to find and kill that one boss in mook clothing in Chapter 5 to boost the effect my Royal Honey with Hermit's Honey (went from +1,000 Max HP / +25 Max PM / +25 Max CP to +10,000 Max HP / +100 Max PM / +100 Max CP). Maybe now I can face that Nightmare Ghost S.O.B. in Chapter 3 to get Nightmare mode... as soon as I slaughter 10,000+ enemies... :\

I was surprised to see Mahiro Maeda, the artist who worked on Blue Submarine No. 6 and Animatrix among other worked on the bosses for Sine Mora. Then again, I didn't know who he was until I played the demo. It was a long since I've seen Blue Submarine No. 6 and the last time I've watched it was original Japanese version online somewhere (might of been ZOMG Anime) years ago and many years ago when the English version aired on Toonami. Good times...
when Cartoon Network wasn't making retarded live-action shows like Level-Up

I'm interested into getting this but the $15 price tag kinda steep since I'm still holding out 2440 MSP ($30.50) for Skullgirls and Vanguard or Dust: An Elysian Tail, but I suppose it's better than RayStorm HD ($15 and no online play or other special features? ef you, Taito). Back on topic...

Trouble Witches NEO! Episode 1. Finally I got that Achievement that's been bothering me since my Gamerscore skewed off the 5 divisibles (normally I wouldn't obsessive over these thing, but having a 7802 score was starting to annoy me, just like Shiki's issues with a lose button on someone's cothes from The World Ends with You).

Seriously, Studio SiestA, why did you have to butcher this game's story with horrid English dubs (that lots of people at GameFAQs love, I might add), bad translations and abridging the story dialogue altogether? If I wanted Trouble Witches NEO: The Abridged Series, I'd hire the guy making the Fire Emblem fandub. But as it stands, this game, and perhaps the series if stays the same localization direction, will become the horizontal Castle of Shikigami. I know I'm being too bitchy about this, especially given the [(Humorus) Storytelling + SHMUP = Irrelevant] "rule" of gaming, but Studio SiestA actually tried make storylines a big part of the game too with the original PC Trouble Witches, and seeing that they did not handle getting an obscure game going to a mainstream platform with any bit of care, is just sad... -AC

It's been a long time, but our intrepid band of bounty hunters made some headway in Wizardry 6: Bane of the Cosmic Forge.

After searching some rooms and realizing that the row of locked doors were the same locked doors that Dengar tried to unlock before, the group explored the hallway and found some stairs.  They went into another room, where they found a pile of bones.  Dengar searched the bones and found this around the skeleton's finger:

    OLLY ROGE
  J  *   *   *   R
D *     X     *   S
  E *   *    *  G
    CODERRIN

This item, the Jolly Rogers Decoder Ring, was given to Zuckuss.  Zuckuss then used it to read the dead man's log book that he had picked up a while back.  There were numerous entries, and they spoke of a mysterious plague, a buried treasure, and a giant mountain.  The dead man watched as his shipmates died from the plague and had asked the local dwarf miners for help.  Judging by the condition of the corpse, he didn't get much assistance.  As the group explore the dungeon, they face some wyrms and leeches.  Those creatures usually don't cause too much trouble, but one leech managed, somehow, to stretch all the way back through the group and bite Zuckuss.

Bossk: *watches as a leech stretches by his head.*  O.O

Zuckuss: AAAAAH!!

After that battle, the group promptly went down to meet with Queequeg the trader.  Greedo, that smooth talker, told Queequeg about the giant mountain, and he told Greedo the password to the one locked room.  So, with that knowledge, the group go to the room and Bossk says "skeleton crew" when asked.  They are then granted admittance to the room. 

They will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.  They'd best be cautious.

The drunken pirates and other scalliwags look over the motley group; Bossk in his leather and fur, IG-88 bearing his Sword of Striking, Greedo with his cape and tunic pockets full of everything that he stole, Dengar the awkward ranger, 4-LOM and his array of instruments, and Zuckuss the "faerie alchemist".

"We don't take kindly to faeries round dese parts."

A large brute, Captain Matey, challenges Bossk to a duel... or a drinking game, which Bossk accepts.  And damn, did Bossk ever drink the captain under the table!  That Trandoshan can hold his liquor! 

So, Captain Matey passes out and his comrades drag him out to sleep it off and the party is free to lounge.  So, what do they do?  Inspect every single room, finding most of them empty... except for one.  In that room is Captain Matey, sleeping off the drinking binge... and a treasure chest.

Greedo disarms the chest and to the bounty hunters go the spoils.  Zuckuss got five Blind Powder to add to his arsenal.  The rest of the loot went to Bossk, since he can hold lots of stuff.  Captain Matey wakes up and in his drunken stupor, catches the theft.  He calls in his buddies and it is time to do battle! 

Greedo hides in the shadows as Bossk and IG-88 start fighting.  4-LOM serenades the rogues into docility and Dengar thrusts at them with his spear.  Zuckuss concocts a stink bomb and incapacitates Matey's friends.  Then, Greedo bursts forth from the shadows and surprises the captain with a backstab!  4-LOM beans a pirate on the head with a bullet stone, thrown from his sling, and Bossk melees with his Claymore.  Zuckuss tosses some acid into the fray, and after a few more hits, the battle is over, and to the bounty hunters—again—go the spoils.  This time, lots of armor, which will be divided up later, lots of gold, some potions, and a fire bomb that goes to Zuckuss.

So, something happened this time around, rather than the usual grinding.  There was some story progression!  Hopefully, soon, there will be more story progression and we'll find out what our band of bounty hunters are up to next time in Wizardry 6: Bane of the Cosmic Forge.

Well, not much happened in Wizardry.  The party divvied up the loot from the previous adventure.  Then, they investigated the corpse behind the gate in a small cage in the Captain's Den.  When Dengar unlocked the gate, Bossk touched the corpse and it disintegrated.  So, they looted the corpse.  Another tricorne hat went to IG-88, a steel hook went to Greedo, an eyepatch was passed around and the party realized that it was useless.  And, there was also a stuffed green parrot.  So, Greedo takes the parrot and as he's changing his clothes and re-equipping stuff, he equips the parrot and is asked...

Do you want to invoke the power of the parrot?

Greedo invokes the power of the parrot, and his Personality stat increases by one.  So, it's off to Queequeg they go to sell some loot, and Zuckuss is hauling too many things and is nearing his carrying capacity (he can't even carry 50 items).  The party swaps some loot around, Bossk sells some extraneous items, trades some things with IG-88, and Greedo steals some items and sells them back to Queequeg.  Then, Greedo does something he hardly ever does...

Greedo bought two items!  He bought a pair of leather boots and some cuir gauntlets.  The gauntlets have yet to be handed out, but the boots went to 4-LOM, as he had no shoes.

Greedo: Don't say I never did anything nice for you.

Now, everyone has footwear.  Bossk, IG-88, and Zuckuss are decked out in their Birkenstock sandals, Greedo is clad in all leather, including his boots, 4-LOM finally has shoes, and Dengar loves his suede everything.  Yes, his suede jacket has fringes.

Dengar also gained a level.  He is now at level 7 (not 8, as I had erroneously said earlier), and has the rank of Archer, which is weird as his primary weapon is a spear.  He's not very good with arrows.  he's not terrible, but the spear allows him to attack twice in one turn, so he uses that.  He also learned Acid Splash, so Zuckuss taught him the basics.

Zuckuss: This one is relatively easy.  Just mix the acid in a small bulb and throw it.  Make sure you throw it away from you.  You don't want it splashing back in your face.

Bossk: And make sure none of us are in front of you when you throw it.

Zuckuss: That only happened one time!

The party explored some more and went back to the first floor of the castle and explored.  Not much story progression this time, mostly switching around equipment to see what works best.  Hopefully, with Dengar advancing in level, he'll sniff out some hidden items for the group to use.  Perhaps they will finally figure out a way across that bottomless chasm, where those tribal women escaped to...

Skullgirls (Xbox 360). So I've gotten all the Achievements, cleared everyone's Story Mode, and unlocked all the characters' palettes... so it's 100% Completion until a patch job and DLCs?

Mega Man (Wii Virtual Console). I'm getting sick off all this waiting for La-Mulana's remake, so I went and bought this. Playing this reminds me why love Luste Teuber from Rosenkreuzstilette so much (just because she's a flat-chested loli who called Grolla an idiot and lives to brag about, but for being Metal Man's expy and giver Metal Blade). Is it me, or does the game's visual seems muted/dull? And how is it that the old NES Mega Man games support GameCube controllers and not MM9 and 10?

Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition. Still trying to go through Professional mode to get the P.R.L. 412. Right now I'm in Ch. 3-2...

Now that I'm watching Puella Magi Madoka Magica lately, already six episodes in, I'm itching to play Grief Syndrome (the Madoka fan-game the same developers of the Touhou fighting games and MegaMari) and Homura Combat (that new Madoka-clone of Earth Defense Force 2017) again.

Hoo boy... quite a bit happened in Wizardry...

Our intrepid band of bounty hunters scaled the bell tower one more time, swung across the pit, and Dengar unlocked the door that was there and they found a treasure chest.  Greedo disarmed it and they found a heavy rope.

Hm...  The gears with Bossk's head start turning...

He has a steel hook.  Now, he has a rope.  And there is that big chasm in the lower levels of the castle that they couldn't get across.  Oh, if only they had a grappling hook or something...

Bossk combines the rope with the hook and the party go to the chasm, Bossk swings the hook across and snags a stable boulder.  Then, one by one, the group shimmies across the rope.  They search the tunnels for a while, but find no women.  However, Dengar sees something!  It's a button!  Dengar presses it, and the party drops to the tunnels below.  After more exploration, they come across a grand canyon crisscrossed by a network of bridges, and a giant mountain looms in the center.

The bridges are a confusing maze, so Bossk, his head hurting after making that grappling hook, decides to lead the group through the tunnels that they saw.  They come across a set of stairs and descend down into the depths, and suddenly...

A GIANT HEAD APPEARS!

Zuckuss almost faints.

The head appears to be trapped within a crystal.  If only they could find a way to free it... 

The group head back to the canyon and explore the edge.  After some tedious and very confusing mapping (the map looks like a fingerprint), and a fight on a drawbridge against a troll, they come across a chasm which they cannot cross.  And there is a button on the wall.  Greedo uses the mystery oil, and an alcove appears and a set of six switches and instructions that are a complicated word problem. 

I have the sequence written down, but I'm not sharing.  Figure it out yourself.  :P

Well, eventually, with Zuckuss's help (sort of.  He just suggested sequences), Bossk figures out the proper controls that extend the drawbridge, and the group crosses it.  They also fight more enemies, including some mountain giants.  One of the giants managed to slam Zuckuss right in the head with a sledgehammer and half his health.  Guess being in the back isn't as safe as he thought it was...

After several battles and leveling up, they make it to the mountain and Bossk sees a foot hold that they can use to climb.  So, they climb.  Then, they fight more enemies.  And acquire more items, such as giant sledgehammers, boulders, rutabagas, and roasted corn (yum).  And they climb some more.  And fight more enemies.  And climb... and Bossk slips, and knocks Dengar down, who grabs Greedo, and they hit Zuckuss, and then 4-LOM and IG-88 have their falls cushioned by the other four.  Zuckuss suggests that they stay where it is safe and rest.  So, they do.

Then, they climb some more.  And slip.  And fight.  And climb.  And fight.  And slip.  And fall.  And climb.  And fight.  And slip.  And climb.

Finally, they reach the top and there is a treasure chest.  It is inscribed with a warning that may a curse be upon those who dare to pilfer it.  Greedo checks it for traps and finds none.  The chest is opened and... there's nothing in it but a note.

"Hey, thanks for the tip," writes Queequeg, "to show my appreciation, here are some things."

Trinkets and baubles.

Thanks, Queequeg.  Enjoy that curse!

Taking a break from Kid Icarus, so I can focus on 999 (DS), a visual novel/puzzle game. Basically, you and eight other people are trapped on a ship and you have to escape before nine hours is up. Otherwise a miniature bomb inside your body detonates and explodes (yep...) 6 Endings total, and I've obtained 3 so far. I'm on my 4th playthrough, then I'm on to get the Coffin Ending and finally, the True Ending.

I got the Submarine Ending first, playing the game at midnight (Although thrilling, It was reaaally haunting). My heart felt like It was jumping out of my chest when my character was suddenly stabbed in the back as I was climbing down to the Submarine. I really can't explain how scary it is. The explicit descriptions in this game, seeing everyone around you dropping like flies, It's no wonder why It's rated M.

Like every person I've heard about this game from, It is absolutely fantastic. Phoenix Wright and TWEWY are the only other DS games that I can think of that had phenomenal story direction and dialog. It's more so a visual novel than a puzzle game.

If I were to complain about something, I'd say some of the characters haven't grabbed my attention, as it is the eerie and creepy environment of the ship you're trapped on. The more endings you get, the more that's revealed about a character's background. There's a sequel for the 3DS and Vita coming out soon, so I look forward to that.

Completed 999 with all endings some time ago. I urge anyone who owns a DS to BUY IT. Seriously, It has one of the most compelling plot directions out there.

Then I went on to beat Sonic Generations, and I'm not touching that again for a while. It wasn't terrible, in fact it's the best Sonic has been in a while. But the thing is, that's not saying anything. Sonic is hideous now, as we are all aware. It's an average game, with clear design flaws, most missions were dreadfully boring, and had forgettable boss battles. Some levels were fun, but only at the beginning. IMO barely any replay value, and console Sonic still remains to be shitty.

Now started Rayman Origins. Coolio so far.

I mean, I love Generations, but Sonic Colors actually feels like it takes some time to complete. I had more fun with it than with Sonic Generations. Which was too [tornado fang]ing short, and the missions (which I thought were fine) barely compensate for its small amount of bosses and stages.
It's a fine [tornado fang]ing game, don't be hating.

Started up a Pokemon playthrough in memory of my fallen friend.

The rules? Not many. With each subsequent game in the playthrough, my main team will be transferred to the next. The starter for each game will always be named Jordanius after my friend.

Emerald > LeafGreen > Platinum > SoulSilver > Black > White 2

I'm currently at Slateport in Emerald; didn't know you could stumble blindly through the darkened Granite Cave to find Steven and skip the Dewford Gym (temporarily). Useful since I needed to level up my Ralts a bit.

All in all that's 6 games and 54 badges to collect. Along the way the Treecko I started out with will eventually become the Champion of all regions (Kanto twice).

So I'm at 1/54 badges right now. D:

Terranigma
I remember seeing some random mention of it (on here I believe) a while back, and for some reason felt compelled to give it a try. Finally got around to doing so, and I don't regret it one bit. This is certainly a RPG I can actually enjoy. I should really look into this sort of subgenre more.

Bastion
Got my PS3 controller working properly on my computer, so I've been much more willing to play this. Enjoying it more than I expected. The narrator alone is enough to keep me engaged.

NieR
Went back to finish all the extras. Got every weapon fully upgraded. Never again. But alas, I still have one more time-consuming and manly task to complete: Gardening!

Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy
Started a Hard Mode playthrough of this some months ago and just got back to continuing. Currently about 2/3 through the game. I'm about to enter a level full of acidic rain, mecha Stormtroopers with concussion rifles, and Sith wannabees errywhere. I expect to be dying a lot.

Well now that you guys mention it, things aren't as hard now that I stumpled upon and bought the Blue Ring, Magic Shield, and found a Heart Container, which made the first dungeon's boss a joke. I guess people could find the game hard because you have no (obvious) directions on where to and all you start out with is a crummy sword. Though now I'm lost and I rather go blind than look up where I'm suppose go after the first dungeon.

Bunny Must Die~ Chelsea and the 7 Devils, done playing good game, but i had to rely on walkthroughs just to get past all those ridiculous troll paths.

Tips: Chelsea's ladder deals a lot of damage to the 1st five burning transforming wheel final boss, the one before you fight the Possessed Bunny. Though you still need a huge amount of hp and elixir to tank a lot of damage. This only hastens the fight if you wanna head straight to the Bunny fight quickly.

Ladders are OP, Yay~

Ys I & II
Been interested to get Oath in Felghana on Steam for a while, but I can't quite at the moment, so I figured I'd look to see if the first two were on something I have or can emulate, and also actually in English.

Was initially going to play the DS remakes but upon double checking the list of re-releases (jesus christ it's worse than Street Fighter II), I noticed a TurboGrafx-CD version thing that was on Wii Virual Console, so I switched over to that. Aside from the rather odd contrast of simplistic graphics with CD quality music, I'm rather enjoying it. The ramming combat mechanic I recall mention of certainly gets much better use in this compared to the DS ones. Also interesting to see how the story goes in this compared to later versions and the OVA I watched a bit of the other day.

You'd be amazed how rarely parts are required, compared to how often people think they are.

I get that the game isn't approachable, though.  It's still one of my personal favorites, but it is a treat for the madly hardcore, definitely not a mass market title.

I beat Batman (NES) and U.N. Squadron (SNES) in a game meeting. Yey~

Also played a lot of 4 player Tiny Toons Wacky Sports on SNES with friends. :3

And a 1h47m 100% run on Super Metroid. ^^b

Lastly there was a Mega Man 2 speed run contest (PAL version, Difficult mode), while one guy reached the 8 boss room, I already beat the Alien boss and the game. I died once tho. ^^;

So while I wait for my KH 3D to arrive, I pulled out some older PSP games.
I restarted MM Powered Up from scratch (would have been content with a highscore reset, but the game doesn't have that!!), alongside pulling out Gurumin to continue on with it, and also Crisis Core to start the Game+ on it. I'd missed the Phoenix Materia first time around... Aside from that, getting up to the final Minerva mission again is going to be a pain...

Let's see.. Did the first run of Star Fox 64 3D in one sitting with only two units of battery power left. It was from Corneria > Meteo > Fichina/Fortuna > Solar > Macbeth > Bolse > Venom 1.

Not easy, though.

After all this, I hope Rockin' Android brings this PC (doubting XBLA) in English with the option of using the updated PSN graphics like they did with Accelertion of SUGURI X-Ediion (http://www.desura.com/games/acceleration-of-suguri-x-edition) on Desura.

ONI (PC). I'm starting to give this game a chance (since I didn't when I used to have PS2 because other games held my interest at the time), and so far it's not too bad, though because of the Anniversary Edition mod, I made the game much harder then it should be.

And because of Happy Video Game Nerd, I'm getting into this series (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EfkDRnuaYVw). I'm playing the second game, and I'm really liking the music. :)

And a 1h47m 100% run on Super Metroid. ^^b

It doesn't encourage me to go spend time with my family or outdoors or something, (like it's supposed to) it just encourages me to go play something else.

But then again, i'm not a Korean living in Korea so I don't know how effective it is over there.

I honestly don't really like the idea of having to unlock the main character.
The Controls are real stiff, running should be the default and turning should be more instantaneous.
In terms of the graphics, the textures are improved (or in some cases, brand new) but they look real fuzzy.
Its been a long time since I played 64DS so really that's all I can say.

None. They added 30 stars, one new one to each world and 15 more secret ones, for a grand total of 150. In addition, you start out as Yoshi and have to unlock Mario, Luigi, and Wario, of whom the Wing Cap, Vanish Cap, and Metal Cap are spread amongst respectively. You must defeat a boss in order to unlock the keys to the doors they are locked in.

I just didn't like the controls. D-pad is not well suited for a 3D game. Maybe on the 3DS it's better, though.

Speaking of, I started NSMB2! My first impression is that the game is awesome, as usual, but if you've played NSMB or the Wii version, you've seen 2 already. 3D Land felt more fresh and engaging to me at the same point.

100%'d New Super Mario Bros. 2! Five shiny stars on the file screen.

Yeah. This game basically runs on autopilot. Nothing too special if you're familiar with NSMB and Wii, and the prize for 1 million coins is MAJOR crap.

I'd rank NSMBWii and 3D Land above this one. The power-ups and level design in those games were more unique and fun IMO. 2 feels samey all the way through. Don't get me wrong, the game is crazy solid like any Mario, but honestly I was expecting more than just a ton of coins everywhere.

Also, I finally got the 3DS system update that allows me to organize stuff in folders. So pretty. :)

I have Mario Kart 7 sealed since January. Not sure if I should start that game or play something on the PS2...

So I've been playing some of those famous Doujin Mega Man clones. I finished MegaMari and Nezumiman today.

MegaMari was awesome for the challenge and weapons, loved the thing with choosing a character to power up after a boss. Level design IMO was pretty unremarkable, though. It was more about dodging bullets and enemy placement than platforming (although I still fall into pits all the time).

Nezumiman was adorable. This game had a lot of clever platform gimmicks and enemy design. The GOOD LUCK boss comes to mind. It's also very easy, which I welcome after almost throwing my controller on the wall while playing MegaMari. The presentation is hilarious and there are tons of funny bits and surprises. Too bad you can't play in full screen or customize controls (I couldn't at least).

Loved both, although Rokko Chan still is my favorite Mega Man clone. Will play RosenkreuzStilette later.

Still working at NSMB2.  I haven't been plowing through it nearly as quickly as I expected, and I guess it's because the game didn't impress me.

Oh, it's a good game, don't get me wrong.  It just doesn't offer much of anything that NSMBWii doesn't, outside of the raccoon tail (which we just got in 3D Land) and the fact that Player 1 can be Luigi without having to hack the game.  I mean, jeez, very nearly the entire soundtrack is lifted from the Wii.

Coin Rush.
Mushroom Pack, making sure Mushroom-1 is the first stage.
Gold Flower.
Run and hit the checkpoint, use the earlier enemies to get around 500 coins.
Go into the pipe where the first Star Coin is, Run and jump onto the koopa twice.
Break the bricks to form a small set of stairs.
Infinite 1-UP trick, making sure to stop at about 900 coins (The Koopa only has 1,000 in him, and if you take them all then he dies and doesn't respawn.)
Do that twice more, third time feel free to kill it.
Run to the end.
Top of the Flagpole.
Next two stages don't matter so long as you get the top of the flagpole in the second stage (The third is always a fortress IIRC) to double your score, just killing the boss in a Fortress produces the same results.

You'll get the maximum 30,000 for Coin Rush, save that as your record so you can always Challenge it to get more.
I got to my 1,000,000 within a week thanks to that. I'm not going to bother with 9,999,999 though, not worth it.

This Mega Man X3 ROM hack (http://megamanx9.com/forum/index.php?/topic/2807-mega-man-x3-zero-project-vers-30-in-progress/).  Looking very much forward to v3.0, but v2.2 is certainly not bad at all.  There's quite a bit of difference between playing "balanced Zero" via this hack and forcing the game to let you play as him forever, I must say.  His charged shot is still as awkward as ever, though.  Too bad some of the armor parts aren't 100% functional yet...

Final Fight arcade is so hard, I wonder how much people spent to beat this back in the day. At only 2 lives per quarter, with those lives ending in as little as one mistimed combo, this thing must have been a gold mine for Capcom/arcade owners. Thankfully, the PS2 port has infinite continues.

Batman Returns is still awesome, but I suck against Catwoman. Really gotta learn how to fight her, lost 2 whole continues because of that b**** and got a game over at the final boss. Will get my revenge later!

Far Cry 2

Someone brought it into work with a bunch RTSes yesterday. Since used PC games tend to be.. inconsistent, each is only sold for two bucks, so I figured I'd nab this one myself. I'm having a fine time so far. Sneaking around in tall grass and flanking enemies is rather satisfying.

Also borrowed Gravity Rush. Quite liking it. Cerfainly has a unique charm.

Rockman X2: Soul Eraser, why am I playing you?  You clearly aren't going to let me beat you without getting at least one piece of armor, you make Zero look like a pansy, and you took away my Quick Dash button from the first game.  

You're a monster.  T_T
A true victory for gaming, is to make you realize you were wrong to oppose Soul Eraser in the first place.  To FORCE YOU to acknowledge its GREATNESS!!!
(Man, I've been watching too much Star Trek...)


Let me try that again: Zero is AWESOME, proper air dash momentum is AWESOME, Ultimate Buster is AWESOME, armor part slot exploit is AWESOME, Fish Fang is AWESOME, scramble change is AWESOME, and Iris makes any game better.

Oh yea, can't you get past that part with Scramble Change, JC?
Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread
Post by: Joseph Collins on October 06, 2012, 06:13:13 AM
At this point in the game, no.  Zero is inaccessible due to the two splitting up and taking separate paths to fight Berkana and Gareth individually. (I'm playing in X Mode, not Hard/Complete Mode.)

Edit: ..........  Well, [tornado fang].  You know that jump I was whining about?  Apparently, it is possible.  You have to scroll the screen over a little to activate the sprite object to scroll within your jumping range, but once you do, you can totally dash-jump to make that jump.  Without the dash boots.

... well.  I feel like an absolute fool now.

Edit 2: However...  The next section after that is, in fact, physically impossible to get through without the Dash Boots.  Unless you have a Bone Batton handy and have "Xtremely" good reflexes.  Hurr hurr hurr.  ...  Damn it.

Edit 3: Actually, nope.  It's still impossible (http://youtu.be/dbBUukf_wNA).  So hah, I was right the first time!  Just... I wasn't right about the location.  x:

Can't you dash at the beginning of that game?
Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread
Post by: Hypershell on October 06, 2012, 06:58:11 AM
You can.  The dash boots just let you air-dash.  However air-dashing is *FAR* more useful in Xtreme2 than it is in, say, the PS1 games, both because the GBC actually handles the air dash physics better, and because there is no single-button dash on the ground.  You can still double-tap to dash jump, though, as well as the "slide" input of Down+B if you intend to stay grounded.

I haven't done the whole "physics exploit research" thing with Xtreme2 that I have with X6, but I can very clearly see Barrier use to wall-kick off of the death traps at the bottom of that shaft, and you gripping the wall when you reach the top.  EXTREMELY difficult to time correctly, but it looks do-able to me.  I'll have to try that sometime.
Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread
Post by: Joseph Collins on October 06, 2012, 07:37:28 PM
Again, nope.

- With the traps at the bottom of the area, I used the invincibility frames to jump as high as I could up there and land on the highest not-quite-a-platform platform I could, then jumped to the hovering lift.
- The trap in the middle of the area will normally kill you despite appearing to be a platform you can stand on normally.
- Due to how the "death spikes" are set up, it's impossible to get far enough away from the wall while wall-jumping to get any vertical movement.  If I had a foothold at the very top of the shaft, that jump would only be a matter of getting thumped by a Bone Batton.

But actually, I would love to be proved wrong.  And I'm serious when I say that.  Beating this game without armor would be a pretty big accomplishment, in my book.  X3

I finally got around to completing Rockman X2: Soul Eraser.  ...  This game is so freaking untested, it's not even funny.

If you decide to go "the opposite way" with characters and levels in Hard Mode -- which is to say, if you play X's levels with Zero and Zero's levels with X -- you get screwed out of armor parts because you don't have the right weapons to access the areas where the armor parts art.  Zero's Fire Wave can't burn down that wood barrier in Neon Tiger's stage and none of X's weapons can penetrate the barriers in Tunnel Rhino or Blast Hornet's stages, charged or not.  You end up missing X's helmet part and Zero's arm and body parts due to this. (And X's "Shotokan Style" upgrade, if you count that.)
In addition, there doesn't seem to be a way for Zero to hurt Final Sigma.  He never gets an Air Dash upgrade and none of this moves do anything to Sigma's battle suit.  You're forced to switch to X and use his vertical air dash to kick Sigma's butt.  Which of course means if you didn't get the Leg Part capsule for X, you can't beat Sigma, and you can't beat the game.
Also, you don't refight both Soul Erasers at any point in the game.  If you get to the cutscene part of Soul Eraser Stage 3 as X, you go and fight Berkana.  If you get there as Zero, you go and fight Gareth.  X will never legitimately fight Gareth and Zero will never legitimately fight Berkana.

Is this game better than the first?  Marginally.  But it has its own amount of disappointment and some small amount of bugs.  That's about it.

Just played through Kid Icarus: Of Myths and Monsters.  Without killing a single enemy (except the bosses) or picking up a single item.  Needless to say, Pit was somewhat battered and bruised by the end.

What's more, the worse you do during the course of the game, the less items you can equip later in the last level.  Apparently, you get the Wings of the Pegasus whether you want them or not, but the Silver Armor or Light Arrows.

Also, either it's because I'm playing on an emulator, the ROM is bad, or Nintendo never meant for players to have such a low score, but my game crashed after I beat the final boss with my Level 1 arrows and 1 HP.  Well, I guess I'll play through the game "normally" later and see if it does it again.  Fully-powered Pit is a monster in this game.  X3

You can buy X's armor from Iris for 2000 DNA Souls.  Zero is screwed, though.

You couldn't be more wrong (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E_a_zaXUb2w&t=1018): Attacking at the peak of Zero's jump WILL damage Sigma, but will NOT cause the full screen flash associated with smacking him in the face after X's air-dash.
Watch Sigma's coloring.  Only X can hurt him when he's blue, only Zero can hurt him when he's red, and both can hurt him while he's yellow.

You're entitled to your opinion and I'm entitled to mine.  I'm sure if I'd played both games on the Game Boy Color as intended, I would think differently, but the lack of an optional dash button really made this game feel more like a chore than a game to me.  And the aforementioned forced Leg Parts for X.  And the fact that if you face a wall and jump, you are stuck against the wall until you land again.  And a lot of other things.

+1 Buster, +2 Buster, Rapid Shot, and Ultimate Buster is a hilariously broken combination, though.  :B

I just started playing the PSP version of Final Fantasy III.
It reads my system settings to know my language and my X/O functions. Unfortunately nobody told the HUD. The screen will still say "O Accept" and "X Cancel", even though that isn't true. So far It's a fun game. Dual Wielding all over the place. Luneth is usually dual wielding the two most powerful weapons, while everyone else usually uses the shop stuff.

I hate how slow the zoom is and how claustrophobic I have to be to see the secret switch/item indicator. If it were faster I could bare it. Maybe I'll make a cheat or something for it.

I love the Auto Battle system, but I don't like that I can't hold Select to cancel it as I'm going into a battle. If I win with it on I have to hope the next battle isn't special or I'm fast enough at pressing select rapidly. I like that it speeds up when Auto Battling. I might try to make a cheat that lets me toggle the speed increase in controlled battle. Maybe it even works out of battle?

I'll have some screenshots in the random picture thread eventually.

Alos, anybody who's played 3(though it may not matter since I'm sure they rebalanced the Jobs, even different from the DS version), How does Warrior, Black Mage, White Mage, Thief sound? I want to have all warriors, but I know that will probably screw me over in the obligatory "physical attack resistant monster" dungeon that will teach me to use magic. Also, is Monk any good? I know in FF1 it had a side effect of getting multiple hits, so monsters who nullified all attacks to 1 were easily defeated if they had low HP. Maybe I'll do Warrior, Thief, Red Mage, Monk.

Still playing RE6. Leon and Chris were fun overall. Sadly their idea of a scary game is narrow corridors and dark environments, if Leon's campaign was any indication. But the boss fights and set pieces helped make his game memorable. Chris was more about the gunfights, and the rooms were bigger.

My PS3 is sooo damn loud. I'll beat RE6 and then wait until I get the new model, 'cause this is too distracting. I wish I could at least turn the TV volume way up, but usually at 11 PM in an apartment this is not the best idea.

Borderlands 2.

I bought the 1st one for about $7 a while back and never got around to it. Then last week my friend suddenly buys me this one, so I've felt some obligation to actually give it a run through. I've been having a good time. Coming off my typical Quake style of shooters, I'm glad my utter disregard for cover does not make the game much harder. Been buffing all my regenerating stats to make rushes even easier for the matter. I think one of my favourite things so far is the default vehicle for its infinite ammo, crazy fast healing and awesome powerslides/drift. Also igniting people's heads with a sniper rifle is rather satisfying.

Ace Attorney, after all these years I finally get a chance to play it.

Man this is some good [parasitic bomb].

Also dabbling with Doom 3 BFG edition. If you can get the resolution fixed in Doom 3 and own the original two already don't bother, they made Doom 3 Easier, the Graphics have been dumbed down (This is a 2004 PC game why can't the Xbox 360 and PS3 handle it for shits sake, and why did you [tornado fang] up the PC version too?), Doom and Doom II have had a few graphical modifications. No more Red Crosses on the Medpacks because some people are butthurt about their logo being used like that. And all Wolfenstein/Nazi stuff in II has been removed, The stages have been gutted of their Hitlers and Swastikas, its almost like playing SNES Wolf, they even took the music out and renamed the maps to IDKFA and Keen, not just that but said code along with all the other codes don't work anymore, the Console has been removed from D3 along with any mod support.

If you don't own the game and have a PC worth its salt, get the original games as they're cheaper, some source ports, and if you really want to play "No Rest for the Living" (The new Doom II mappack, though it might have been in the XBLA release, I don't know.) Its probably online somewhere. If you don't and only own the consoles, pick it up, its only $30. If you're like me and own the original games on PC, its up to you whether you want to spend $20 on essentially a new episode of Doom 3. (I say $20 because if you own Doom 3 already its got a discount on Steam.)

Hey, let's get back to topic, huh.
I'm still chugging through the first Borderlands, almost out of level of my amazing Combustive HellFire SMG. Piling on the guaranteed Burning damage is still pretty useful though.
Aside from that, I'm working on Pokemon Dream Radar (until I eventually get my copy of White 2) and also getting extremely frustrated at the drop gauge system in Kingdom Hearts 3D again after not playing it since launch week.

I played a little game produced by Epic Megagames and designed by Stone Interactive last night.  A little game for MS-DOS called "Solar Winds, Episode 1: The Escape (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_Winds)."

If you're familiar with Star Control II: The Ur-Quan Masters, it plays like an extremely watered-down version of that, being limited to exploration and combat only with only one single ship at your disposal.  Despite the fact it's practically impossible to lose once you figure out the AI is dumb as a post, and the fact it's extremely linear, it's a fun little game and some great interactions and absolutely awesome music by the legendary Dan Froelich. (He did the music for a number of Epic's games back then, including Jill of the Jungle and Kiloblaster!)

I plan to play Episode 2, The Universe in the near future.  I played a little last night, and it seems just as fun as the first game with even better music!

T_T  The personality test at the beginning of Dragon Quest III (Super Famicom version, translated by Dragon Quest Translations) made me cry.

After patching the ROM so it was in English, I decided to mess around with the game.  There was a mandatory personality test.  After answering a series of questions honestly and fleeing from the town I was supposed to destroy as a monster, hurting only one townsperson in the process (only because he wouldn't leave me alone or let me go), this is what I got:
Quote
You are a kind but strong person, which are both qualities of a true hero.  You have a strong personality, but you supress it.  Besides that, you are very sympathetic, and relate to other peoples feelings.  You always put everyone before yourself.  Your passions have no end, and you are never discouraged.  Everyone has trust in you.  And you never lose that trust.  You are an excellent person.  Even when you act your worst.  You are still pretty incredible.  I have full faith in you.
Enix, why did you have to go and make me cry?  T_T

It's OK. When the ice caps melt, most of it won't anyway, and it will have nothing to do with sensitivity. Antarctica is soon to be the world's most important continent.

But seriously. Germany runs around and bans any instance of a swastika because they're afraid of their own past. The UK bans books. That's a telltale sign of fascism, even if ever so slight. It's only a problem when opinions become forced. Not that there aren't much worse places, like full-on fascist states and what have you.

P.S. I wasn't being serious anyway. The serious answer is to make all the continents into space colonies and hold Gundam Fights.

Basically, you can skip the cutscene where she loses all the intro items, allowing you to start the game with Missiles, Bombs, Space Jump, Boost Ball and Spider. It's really fun to have all those early items and do stuff out of order.

Oh, I meant to mention...  I finished Solar Winds, Episode 2: The Universe recently.  ...  I'd like to say I was disappointed, but given that I wasn't expecting much to begin with, it's hard to say it and mean it.  I won't get into details, but the game ends kind of suddenly.  There seems like there's a big build-up and like a bajillion different portals for you to potentially visit, but you end up doing all of two missions from the final guy before he says, "Yeah, we're done.  Go play," which is basically the game's way of saying "Go beat the game."

Sigh...  I was hoping for a bit more exploration.  But then again, this is no Star Control II...  I can also see why Stone Interactive Media didn't do any more games after this.  XD  Not an awful couple of games, but they were very linear.  The second one in particular was very, very buggy and lacked non-essential NPCs to harass.

Hrm.  I guess I was disappointed.  :(

I just started playing the PSP version of Final Fantasy III.
It reads my system settings to know my language and my X/O functions. Unfortunately nobody told the HUD. The screen will still say "O Accept" and "X Cancel", even though that isn't true. So far It's a fun game. Dual Wielding all over the place. Luneth is usually dual wielding the two most powerful weapons, while everyone else usually uses the shop stuff.

I hate how slow the zoom is and how claustrophobic I have to be to see the secret switch/item indicator. If it were faster I could bare it. Maybe I'll make a cheat or something for it.

I love the Auto Battle system, but I don't like that I can't hold Select to cancel it as I'm going into a battle. If I win with it on I have to hope the next battle isn't special or I'm fast enough at pressing select rapidly. I like that it speeds up when Auto Battling. I might try to make a cheat that lets me toggle the speed increase in controlled battle. Maybe it even works out of battle?

I'll have some screenshots in the random picture thread eventually.

Alos, anybody who's played 3(though it may not matter since I'm sure they rebalanced the Jobs, even different from the DS version), How does Warrior, Black Mage, White Mage, Thief sound? I want to have all warriors, but I know that will probably screw me over in the obligatory "physical attack resistant monster" dungeon that will teach me to use magic. Also, is Monk any good? I know in FF1 it had a side effect of getting multiple hits, so monsters who nullified all attacks to 1 were easily defeated if they had low HP. Maybe I'll do Warrior, Thief, Red Mage, Monk.

I officially finished FF III. I probably could have finished days ago if not for end of game anxiety.

I'm playing II.

PS: III was short. I imagine it'd have to if the story in the original was as non-existent as I'm lead to believe.

Yesterday I beat Maverick Hunter X with X and Vile on Hard. Still a solid remake, with some annoyances. Vile's game is so much fun, very strategic and rewarding. That knee flamethrower thing saved my run. Sadly my PSP's d-pad is all twitchy. Would be fun to replay Powered Up too, but that game has some precise jumps... not exactly fun with a controller that decides to go left randomly.

Right now I'm just getting the last RE6 Trophy (grind grind grind), and then it's done.

After RE6, I might play some Mega Man games.

My battery is so dead. I haven't played my PSP in like years. My only charger is USB, and that doesn't provide enough juice to turn it on.

It doesn't provide enough juice because the PSP doesn't charge via USB unless it is on. If you have a USB - DC adapter that used the regular charging jack, that would work.

I completely understand what it is to be a Robot Master in a Mega Man game now...

Finished Powered Up as Time Man, Hard difficulty. I gave up on this run years ago, and decided to pick it up again. Elec Man is such a pain in the ass with Time Man. Since you're playing as a Robot Master, that means you only have one weakness out of 8, and you are also weak to one of the 8 yourself. Freaking intense stuff...

That was such a ride, in any case. I think I'm gonna play as Cut Man one of these days, 'cause he can wall jump. Sounds like fun.

Finished with Cut Man on Hard. Not as bad as Time Man, and wall jumping is awesome. Aiming the Rolling Cutter is a pain, but at least it deals decent damage to most bosses. Also, Cut's strongest foe, Guts, is super easy.

Oddly, I didn't have much of a problem clearing the game on Hard Mode with Gutsman.  Those blocks of his made a damn good shield.  Plus, if you're really clever, you can even trap some bosses for a little while!  Cutman/Copy Cutman in particular was fun to trap.  He didn't have enough room to walk, so he could never activate his Big Cutter move.  X3

Does Guts Man have high defense at least? Seems hard to hit enemies with the slow blocks, and he's freaking huge.

Post by: Da Dood on November 03, 2012, 03:10:26 AM
Well, ended up playing and beating Hard mode with Guts Man. Holy crap, that was brutal. Some bosses that are normally a cakewalk (like MM clone and Ice) are suddenly impossible or just too annoying. You pretty much have to come up with an entirely new strategy in every stage and for every boss. A couple of bosses are a joke, though, 'cause you may trap them/shield yourself behind a block.

Guts Man isn't very fun to play as, IMO. Creating platforms is sweet (especially over spikes), but since the blocks are his only attack, you must deal with a split second wait for every single shot... which is angled and hits walls A LOT... and that's IF you're standing on a solid platform to create blocks. And he's so freaking huge. Bleh.

One cool touch about Guts is that he doesn't flinch when he's fighting his own clone. Not even when the ground shakes, haha.

Finished Powered Up with Rock (Mega) and Fire Man. Both were a breeze after Guts Man.

Today I beat Mega Man & Bass (GBA), played as Bass.

I used to think this game was crazy stupid hard, but after playing Powered Up with Robot Masters, it's just crazy hard. And that's with Bass, who has virtually no platforming issues in his run. The fortress is quite possibly the hardest in the classic series. I cheesed through, though, bought a ton of extra lives and some parts.

Still trekking through Borderlands 2. Sorta slowed down on it a bit and picked up Unreal Tournament 3 and Killing Floor on the side.

Don't even bother with the 1st one. 2 improves on it every way. If you like that then Brotherhood adds some new stuff but isn't that big a leap. I haven't played Revelation but only people that are really that big fans cared for it, from what I hear. And 3 I have no idea about.

Personally I enjoyed 2 a fair bit, but my biggest issue with the games is how badly executed the stealth aspects tend to be. Even when doing things properly, it still involved killing a crapton of guards or being more trouble than its worth. Getting over that and just trying to play it as a sandbox game of sort made it more enjoyable for me at least. My stealth standards have just gotten really nitpicky since playing the Thief series. Speaking of that, if you enjoy Dishonoured, then you should totally play Thief, which is probably its biggest influence in a lot of ways.

My problem with 3 is that it's super unbalanced... :\ Enemies appear by the thousands, and you don't deal too much damage yourself. And the areas/music didn't appeal as much to me. It was kind of a tedious experience.

Oh, I forgot to mention a friend finally convinced me to pick up Halo CE. Last couple times I played this was on the Xbox with my older brother around when it finally came out and then again a few years later with my friend. Seems I suck significantly less on the PC. Big surprise there.

As for the mods, I picked up:

Gateways: Basically a fun distraction. Not much in the way of plot.
G-String: Yeah I don't know what they did with the title... But it's not about panties. The plot's pretty darn good though, although I don't feel like explaining it.
Riot Act: Basically one of those "from the eyes of someone else" things, like in the original HL expansions. This one's during the Nova Prospekt assault during HL2.
Missing Information 1.6: Basically a compilation of all the junk from the Beta HL2.

That's what they get for not using the original music from the show. Or stealing other's work and all.

I might have to get that. Always loved those games, and Tenkaichi. I was probably the only person who liked the Wii controls for that game.

Not sure how I ever stood it.

I was heartbroken when I saw the YouTube video that showed Kenji Yamamoto was a plagiarist.  I really, really was.  :(  I [tornado fang]ing love his work and have since Dragon Ball Z: Super Butouden.

Then again, if he's a plagiarist, wouldn't that make Yuzo Koshiro, the guy who did the soundtrack to the Bare Knuckle/Streets of Rage series (among other things) a plagiarist, too?  There's an awful lot of sound-alikes there...

SHITFUCK who the hell comes up with a story like this?! I laugh at anyone who thinks the Kingdom Hearts series is hard to follow. VLR takes the conspiracies, philosophies and scientific theories from its predecessor and magnifies it 100x over. And even through all the craziness, you can still follow... for the most part. I really can't stress how magnificent the Zero Escape series is, mainly because the director does a fantastic job of creating such a huge plot in just 2 games AND makes it easy enough to understand. Bring on Volume 3.

Hey, Rockman 8 FC is quite interesting. Feels empty without all the secrets, like Rock7 FC, but at least it's pretty challenging.

Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread
Post by: Joseph Collins on November 09, 2012, 08:46:53 PM
If I remember right, the only permanent items in Rockman 8 FC should be the Exit Module and Energy Balancer.  Everything else should be either instant-use (energy cans) or per-level. (Arrow Shot, Laser Shot, Energy Saver, etc.)

That's if I remember correctly, of course.  It's been quite some time since I've dinked with that version of the game.

So, I downloaded Rockman 8 FC and I suddenly remembered why I never played through the damn thing.  There's no way to disable controller support, but the way it tries to map my controller (A PS2 controller via Super Dual Box Pro adapter) simply does not work.  I have directional buttons that press every button at the same time, for example...

So anyway, I decided to poke around the shop.  Here's the entire catalog of items and what they do:
[spoiler]Spare Body (1-up) - 20 Bolts - Non-usage item, takes effect immediately.
Gives you another chance to complete a stage.

E-Tank - 30 Bolts, One-time use, works immediately.
Instantly refills your Life Energy.

Power Shield - 20 Bolts - One-time use, lasts the entire stage.
Prevent Rockman from being pushed around when taking damage.

Super Recover - 20 Bolts - One-time use, lasts the entire stage.
Increase the amount of Life/Weapon Energy gained from Life/Weapon Energy Capsules.

Shooting Part - 30 Bolts - One-time use, lasts the entire stage.
You can have 5 Rock Buster shots on-screen at the same time instead of just 3.

Hyper Charge - 30 Bolts - One-time use, lasts the entire stage.
Halves the amount of time it takes to charge a Power Shot.

Exit - 50 Bolts - Infinite use, works immediately.
Allows you to immediately exit a stage if you've already beaten it once.

Exchanger - 80 Bolts - Permanent upgrade.
If you have full Life Energy and pick up a Life Energy Capsule, it gets converted into Weapon Energy instead.

Energy Balancer - 100 Bolts - Permanent upgrade.
Weapon Energy Capsules picked up while no weapon is equipped automatically charge the weapon with the lowest energy.

Energy Saver - 150 Bolts - Permanent upgrade.
Decreases the amount of energy needed to use a special weapon by about half.[/spoiler]
So... yeah!  I was wrong about a lot of things, apparently.  XD

Mega Man 10 (boss weapons only) is done. You know, if I weren't so hyped for MM9 back then, I would definitely prefer MM10. It's probably the better game anyway. Mega Man level design cannot get any more polished than this. This run was amazing because I actually forgot how most of the levels play.

I never ever used the buster in this run... Mega Man Killers' weapons FTW!

It's technically not finished just yet.  They still have to add either Cutman and Woodman or Oilman and Timeman to the game (in the places where Cutman and Woodman were in the Saturn release).  Not sure if they intend to add anything else, but that's all that's missing right now.  The game is playable from Robot Masters to Wily Saucer 5, complete with intro cutscene and ending.

Stopped playing at Tidal Tempest, Act 1.  Had to.

Was suddenly overcome with a severe case of the fangirl squees from all the childhood memories.

Tits aside she's actually not all that bad.

But like I said, I downloaded Emo the Darkhog just to see how bad it is. Storytime. When I was younger and saw the commercial for SHtH, I thought it was some sort of origin story game about Sonic's past.

I think that would've been cooler. :\

Cave Story.
For an indie game it's very addictive, polished and fun. I like fully upgraded knife. "Scorching Back" (theme from "Egg Corridor?" stage) is my favorite track in the game.

Cave Story. Greatest retro game.

They're both rougher than a rusty razor, but I definitely enjoyed Sonic Adventure Dicks better than SA2. It's still pretty bad, but with enough vigorous polishing, it could've aged much better.

Also, I played some Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening Dicks on Gameboy the other day. Quaint game, but ages like a fine wine. Reminds me of a transitional phase between Legend of Zelda and A Link to the Past that isn't Adventure of Link.

Right now I'm playing some Mega Man Zicks. It's ... not bad. It just feels like a misguided sequel to Zero 4. The shitty mission structure ripped straight from Zero 1 gets in the way of the non-linear exploration aspect, which isn't that rewarding as is. The meat of the game--the levels--are actually pretty good, but everything in between feels ... plodding. I mean, you're free to run around and shoot/slash stuff, but there's really nothing to do other than collect those [tornado fang]ing fun data disks. The lack of flow and choppy fun just kill the game for me, and you couldn't have followed up the two decent intro stages worse than with the hide-and-go-seek bullshit in the residential district. Man, that's some hardcore guerilla hazing action right there: go duck under holes at the speed of molasses and find the trained Guardian troops who totally aren't babysitting you.

I don't know. I agree that SADX had the better plot but SA2B handles way better and has smoother level design. The biggest thing that turned me off from SADX was the clunky gameplay.

Guess that's just me though.

Post by: Treleus on November 28, 2012, 10:33:04 PM
Yeah, but the SA2 levels are great as long as you're playing as either Shadow or Sonic. The game as a whole is frustratingly choppy when you have to get interrupted with Knuckles' & Tits' gem spike spelunking or Eggman & Tails clunky mech rider stages. No flow at all. If you could remove those four characters, SA2 would be more solid, but also more restricted than SADX. The latter has this great feeling of openness in both the hubs and the stages themselves, and controlling Sonic feels pretty good when you're not speeding and have a lot of room to run around in. Each stage has a good measure of those areas between speed stretches. SA2 progressed like a 2D Sonic game, and for a 3D game, felt a little more restricted than one.

Also [tornado fang] the rails.

Nah. Sonic 1's pretty bad. Charming and original without a doubt, but not well designed overall. Sonic 2's much better. Sonic CD is the black sheep, but I love it. If there's one Sonic game I consider flawless, though, it's S3&K.

Colors was pretty amazing. It's got a lot of throw-away stages and much of the 3D gameplay is auto-played (but oh the colors!), but overall its the best 3D Sonic game I've ever played.

I don't really care much for the Rush games. I'm neither a fan of the charm, the story, nor the boost. Definitely not a fan of the sailing/jetskiing around in Rush Adventure. Colors DS was all right.

Get perfects for the main eight bosses using only the buster, no charged shots, no sliding.  Defeat Fortress Bosses 1 and 2 under the same conditions, then defeat all the Boss Rush bosses in the same.  When you get to the final boss, the background will be different and you'll end up fighting a new boss altogether.

Beat them (perfect/no charge shots again) and you unlock Dan Hibiki as a playable character.  Yahoooooo!

Splatterhouse (2012). Okay, somebody should fire whoever writes reviews at IGN(orant) and every hoity-toity critic that gave this unfairly low ratings because game is FAR from terrible and unplayable (and believe me, I've played worse). To summerize my thoughts on this game: Is it perfect? No. Is it terrible? No [tornado fang]ing way.

[spoiler=TL;DR version]The tutorials here does suck and is probably what will gets you killed most of the time at the beginning (Tip: LT/L2+B/○ to use Splatter Siphon to drain life of near-by enemies [cost 1 Necro Meter]), it starts a little too fast for some, there's some droll moments here and there, and the game is more prone to crashing your system (although your mileage may vary), but once you get past the initial hurdles it's not a bad game. Critics like IGN obviously blasted this game as "just some overly gory game", but it's more than that. You are slaying monsters in the name of love -- to save the hero's loved ones -- which has always been the case of the original games, and it's the same case here with Rick rescuing Jennifer. Long-time fans of the Spatterhouse series (long before I became a fan of this series myself) saw that Namco put their hearts into this game as a love letter for the fans, and so have I. The game has some top-notch voice-overs as well (Hint: Fuzzy Lumpkins, Pete, and Tiger is the Terror Mask in this game), and the pacing of story and gameplay isn't bad either. When you grab that 2×4 or tear out an enemy's arm and start smacking demonic goons with it, you feel like a badass doing it. To me, this game has earned a spot for some of the most under-rated (and unappreciated) games next to Senko no Ronde of my Xbox 360 collection (although Splatterhouse is also on PS3 but that's not the point I'm making here).[/spoiler]

I've 100% this game already (both the game and Achievements), and starting a new game on Brutal without my skills carried over and I'm and doing pretty good with what I've learned in my Normal mode run and the survival arenas. And by the way, you can unlock all three of the original Splatterhouse games (including the arcade original, not the Turbo Grafx-16 port of the first game) in this remake too. :3

La-Mulana (2012, WiiWare version). After years of set-backs and BS that kept everyone else from playing this game, and I can say I commend everyone at NIGORO for living up to keeping their promise of bringing this remake for all to enjoy. The 32-bit visuals beautiful, the music is amazing, and the game is quite the challenge. I'd pony up the extra cash to get this game on PC so I can play this game in 1080p on my brother's PC. I still haven't beaten the original, but there are differences between the original and remake. I think I'm passed the half-way point of the game (I've slain about 6 of the guardians) though I'm a bit lost...

Beat Hazard (XBLIG). Finally the problem that screwed up the firewall in my house, which in turn stopped me from streaming media from the PCs in my house, has been dealt with and now I can rave my brains out again. Now I can rave to Double Dragon Neon's OST, Superpony Beat's MLP:FiM remixes, and recently renard's music from DASH-DA-DASH DX (I gotta see if he's got other [legitimately] free music too). Speaking of DASH-DA-DASH DX, it's a freeware survival shoot 'em up game where you must (obviously) dash way from bullet patterns and outlast the boss' attacks. It's a neat little game, I must say, and the XBLIG graphic setting is kinda trippy.

Other games I've been playing on PC was basically me messing around with Xpadder with my corded 360 controller so I don't have to use the keyboard all the time. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna start cracking cases in Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney.

2nd - Kraidgief - Ridiculous button mashing [parasitic bomb], and slightly random [parasitic bomb]y difficulty.

4th - Mecha Birdo - To much dependance on [tornado fang]ing perfect jumps.
5th - Dracula - Random bull [parasitic bomb]. Its not fun when he teleports right on top of you.
6th - Dragon Devil - Unlike Mecha Birdo, less frustrating, but a bit time cosuming
7th - Mike Tyson - Time consuming but easy
Last - The Guy - Since he lacks his 2nd form in the Boss Rush, he becomes the easiest Boss to deal with.[/spoiler]

Why would you skip the dark suit? I know it's pretty damn ugly, but otherwise, walking round dark aether you may as well just we walking through phazon pits.

Also, he's annoying. it's a 3 phase boss fight, and the last phase is the worst [tornado fang]ing thing. You have to boost onto his head. but it's so goddammned annoying to pull off when his shots knock you OFF the body's spider rails.

Flame, people sometimes skip the Dark Suit just for the challenge. It's fun to skip items in Metroid games. Quadraxis is ridiculous with that uber Dark Aether atmosphere, haha. You die in like 50 seconds unless you're fast enough to shoot his legs and get health back. Good times.

So I finished Street Fighter X Mega Man plus the secret boss at the end.

Karasai, yes, he was sooo tough. I barely managed to beat him, thanks to Optic Laser passing through his projectiles. I'm glad you don't have to fight Bison again if you game over there.

It was the dark aethersphere that killed me, on the last form. Pissed the hell outta me, after a lengthy playsession, and I had to ragequit for a while till I felt up to it again. I mean, It's not like i had to go any real long ways to get to him, it's just yknow... I didnt feel like dying. Then I tried him again and had to restart because I remembered i forgot to scan the second form, and the third try i had no issue. (I was also kinda doing it wrong the first try)

Started a Mega Man ZX run after 3 or so years since my last playthrough... which was on Hard, so I'm having an easier time.

First things first, this game is awesome. But maaan, the map system is so terrible and confusing. Finding the door that leads to the next mission is sometimes more of a pain than doing the actual mission.

I'm trying to beat all Pseudoroids with a Lv. 4 win. So far so good, two down (P and H). Having a Sub-Tank and an E-Tank from the Guardian chick helps a lot.

Aside from that, I've discovered the Scarecrow's Song in Ocarina of Time 3DS. I never knew that was a thing. This time around I'm going all-out with the side-quests: selling masks to people, getting all the Golden Skulltula tokens, and generally just finding everything. It's great fun.

Freaking side quests in Mega Man ZX... when you don't have to backtrack for ages, the reward is just some cash. No idea how people figured out some of those.

4 bosses are Lv. 4'd now, the first four of each Biometal. Fistleo was sooo hard. Not hitting his head was difficult enough, and then he heals himself! Grrr. Thankfully I had the W-Tank for extra lightning.

The best sidequest in Mega Man ZX is the love letter quest.

It's the best because it shows exactly why I hate sidequests in action games: blatant backtracking.

True. Most side missions in this game are pointless fetch quests. Meh. :\ Incidentally, now I love the Library Card in SotN even more.

Only one boss left to get a Lv.4 win (the second water boss). Flammole was tricky, but no big deal when I finally found an opening.

Almost all major side quests are done, I'm only missing the nurses. And I need Hyper Charge to complete the chip collection (the last one had to be the most useful...).

I think this is the first time I'm collecting everything in this game.

100%'d ZX and moved on to Advent.

Man, this game is so good, I didn't remember a lot of it. Better map system, no pointless backtracking, cool new powers.

I love how they made certain things different from Zero/ZX, but not quite. Like, this game has a bigger focus on ranged attacks, but they still made bosses' insides all visible and exploded if you finish them off with a charged attack (like how in Zero/ZX you can finish bosses with a slash to cut them in half and see their inside circuits and stuff).

The playable characters have different attacks too, unlike ZX. Grey's homing shots are amazing.

The boss transformations get a lot of bashing, but I don't agree with that at all. You can't quite use any of the bosses as your main character, but they have practical uses, like Chronoforce and the bee. Besides, you get the original Models too, so I don't know why people complain so much about this.

Well, I only said he was my last boss, not that I have trouble beating him. True, he was pretty easy to Lv.4. I just didn't remember the stages and such.

I didn't even remember that boss, haha. The only reason I knew he was a water/ice boss was because each Biometal had two.

Close to beating Advent... dunno if I'll go for all the medals again, some of them were pretty nasty IIRC. But it would be fun to have a 100% file here too (my first file is complete, but without the unlockable Model a... bleh!).

I'm still playing ZX Advent. Missed an item on my latest run (cheap! How should I know that you have to pick the right plant for the fruit?) and started over, close to the end now.

I love this game. Chronoforce makes boss battles a piece of cake, and I'm getting medals and stuff that I had to backtrack for last time. Getting Wind Boots and Queenbee for Floating Ruins makes the place a breeze, pun intended (and you can sequence break the Sub-Tank quest with the bee! Very handy for Expert difficulty).

While I liked certain aspects of ZXA better than ZX, I overall liked the soundtrack, areas and just the general aesthetic and colorfulness? i guess? ZX just LOOKS better IMO. And aside from those few tunes in ZXA, most of it's soundtrack was kind of forgettable. Im not even mentioning the models themselves, because well, most of them were better in ZX. (DAT HX) Also, Unlockable Model X, and Model Ox was the best bonus ever. (not to mention seeing Omega again, and what seems like a chunk of Ragnarok was fun) Model @ while cute, is a kind of shitty bonus item. (especially when compared to the one in ZX)

Cleared the campaign with Low Chaos already. Already going back to blow through levels without killing any targets this time. Also going to avoid any detection to get every "Ghost" bonus. Also also not using a single power since it just seems like a crutch for more inexperienced players.

In other words I'm playing it like Thief because it may as well be a vague spin off under a different name.

Makes me glad I got Metroid Prime: Trillogy cheap at GameStop... *sigh* [tornado fang]ing Friend Vouchers...

So far I'm really enjoying La-Mulana (2012) on WiiWare, I might consider getting it on PC when or if it gets greenlit for Steam. I hoping to get it from Playism and get the Steam key for it since NIGORO are considering giving Steam key to anyone that buys it on Playism, although they're not making any concrete promises on that. If that doesn't happen, I may as well get it from Good Old Games since it's DRM-free.

I'm messing around with an HD mod for BloodRayne 2 on PC, and it looks pretty good on 720p/1080p. It's also nice that the modder fixed this issue with the game running above certain resolutions by default it can't run in, despite my brother's PC being fully capable of running some games in 1920×1080 no problem.

Tron, yeah, emulation is a way... it's just not the same though, at least IMO.

I'm playing the Zero Collection. I still think Z1 is the weakest of the Zero series, though a pretty sweet game. Probably guilty for being the first game and not super refined. The music is kinda lame for the most part, too (Z2-Z4 definitely kick ass in that department).

The weapon leveling up can be good and bad... it's good because if you have patience, you can max out your main weapons before even the first "real" mission, and it's bad because well, you have to grind. I prefer collecting power-ups for those skills, glad Z3 got rid of the level up.

And it's a lot worse farming E-Crystals... those Cyber-Elves sure like to eat. I'm aiming to get Jackson, which will make this run more challenging, although to be honest, after ZXA on Expert, Z1 feels much easier than before.

The best part about the MMZC is using Y and B instead of B and A by customizing the controls. Muuuch better.

After the tedium of farming money in Z1, I'm playing Mega Man Zero 2. Dude, this game is already like... 50 times better than Z1. Tighter level design, better structure, cooler music and bosses.

Phoenix Magnion's stage must have been designed by 4 or 5 people who had their own great ideas (including a Space Invaders mini-game!) and then the director decided to just add everything. There's like 3 alternate paths in that stage, non-linear objective, exclusive mini-bosses... cool stuff. Or hot, 'cause it's... lava...

I'm getting the EX Skills and Forms to have a complete file. So far, no problem (my rank is A, but I got a 99P on that one stage, so my average is a pretty high A).

Zero 2 is 100%'d.

Z3, let's go.

Beat the first four stages. 95 point average now, which gives me a lot of room for error in the hardest missions later. Getting there was tricky, though, because I kept dying in the lava stage, and I had to memorize the water stage switches for 100% mission objective.

All Secret Disks and EX Skills collected so far.

And yeah... it's probably my favorite. Level design is super polished, cool powers (Recoil Rod!) and bosses. Now you can even use a couple Cyber-Elves without losing rank points, and equip chips for a variety of abilities (also with no penalty). And the story is actually sweet!

I plan to 100% this game today. I really really want to watch the Dark Souls speed-run at the AGDQ marathon, but it's gonna happen at like 3 a.m. here in Brazil. Z3, keep me awake!

Was playing Pokemon Black (Using Action Replay to cheese my way through since I just want to get the story done.), Got through Driftveil and down through the electric cave place (I don't remember its name).

Then my leg brushed up against the AR.
And I had forgotten to save, which I always do.

So now I'm back in Driftveil before Cold Storage.

Again, more Banjo-Kazooie. Decided to use the infinite air cheat, because I got sick and tired of drowning, from Rusty Bucket Bay and onwards, but not because of that, I suck at swimming underwater. The controls just seem to [parasitic bomb] on me once I'm in water.

The camera really sucks at staying still at times when I have to make a cautious jump.

Played and finished Metroid Prime in 2:22, one sitting.

Sequence breaks were the usual, except that I grabbed Spider Ball. Pity that ONE ROOM is what makes me get that item, but at least it makes some other places easier (and fighting Thardus with Plasma is ridiculous). Skipped Thermal Visor, Gravity Suit, Super Missile and Grapple.

I did the hardest tricks fast enough, so I'm happy. Early Artifact of Wild and the Overworld gate skip to Phazon Mines in particular. I always get nervous with those but today they were no big deal.

Oh, and the cable extension for the controller works just fine. Playing on my bed is awesome. I'll play something else on the GC next.

I like the whole inter-connectivity with the Kattelox Island, where both the town area and the dungeons were attached to each other no matter where you went. Then there's the whole mood and feel of the game itself, so many fun characters and things to interact with, with some in-jokes from Capcom here and there. XD

Aiming to 100% the first game. Those rescue missions are a PAIN to A-Rank. Kinda dumb how you can't choose the rescue missions or go back to areas when you beat the game. I think I missed one sub-weapon when I beat it, now I have to start all over. Really bad game design there. Other than that, it's pretty fun.

Doing a 4th run of Dishonoured. Just whoring all the remaining achievements because it's the kind of game I just really want to clear 100%.

Also played a bit of the PS3 remake of Medal of Honour: Frontline. A lot of the graphical effects and environments didn't transition well but I don't really care because I just wanted my 60FPS.

Also also started Ys IV: The Dawn of Ys with the latest English patch. It has a fandub and it's about as bad as a low budget 90's dub would sound. Good job I guess...?

Oh man, fighting Sagat and a buffed Bison with one health bar... holy crap. That was awesome, and <b>tough</b>. Sagat's faster attacks are often easier to dodge than his slow attacks, 'cause just like the fighting games, the slow stuff always throws off your timing.

I ended up getting a Perfect against Sagat on my successful run. It was mostly luck though, he used a ton of Tiger Knee (which is always followed by a Tiger Uppercut... the only thing about his moves that has a pattern) and Ultras.

Buffed Bison kicked my ass. I beat him with like 3 HP left. Nothing deals enough damage to this guy. Best you can do is charge up a Hadoken for 2 damage, but that means dodging at least two attacks while it's charging.

So yeah. Bring those E-Tanks, 'cause you'll have to fight both guys in one go. I only had one E-Tank on me, and was saving that until I got a good run, but in the end killed both with one health bar. Maybe I shouldn't have used 5 on the refights (just to make sure I had the 4 Perfects necessary).

The boss fights in this game... fantastic.

What sort of run are you doing?

Just a regular run. First time through the game. I got some pretty high chaos the first two missions because I was thinking I could pull an army guy on it. So now I'm trying to go no-kill. Or at least minimal kill if worst comes to worst. Minimal detection too. I got seen a couple times but a couple blinks and I don't care. Choking people never stops being fun.

I'll pick it back up maybe a couple months after I beat it and maybe record a no-kill/ghost run on it if I ever get a little better at it.
Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread
Post by: irgpie on January 23, 2013, 07:48:51 PM
1st time I did Low Chaos with only Double Jump and Vitality upgrades. Killed Campbell and Pendletons but went strictly non-lethal after.
2nd time I did Low Chaos with every Ghost & No Kill bonus without upgrading a single power and used Blink only in forced scenarios.
3rd time I did High Chaos with maxed Blink, Time Stop, and Shadow Kill.
4th time I did Low Chaos with Ghost and No Kill but maxed out Blink and Time Stop and collected every Upgrade, Sokolov Portrait, Bone Charm, and Rune except one I somehow missed in the 3rd last mission.

Quicksave is my friend. Good luck if you're not on PC. Though I imagine the save and load times are just as fast.

P.S. Play Thief after like seriously. I have digital copies I'd be very wiling to give to anyone interested.

About the fetch quest in Metroid Prime: when I first played the game, I had the exact same feeling. Basically forced myself to finish. A few months later, I decided to replay the game just because, and liked it a little better... then I learned a trick here and there, and liked it some more... and now I basically play the thing every couple weeks.

You can get many Artifacts on your way, and if you're willing to sequence break (get stuff before you're supposed to), this is even easier. Unfortunately, the whole thing is too annoying on the first run.

I'd force myself to get back into it if I didn't have so many other things to play that interest me much more honestly. Maybe some day I will care to try.

The general opinion is that its just a mediocre game. That fact that it has the Devil May Cry title on it and what it does to it's characters/setting/story is what makes it such a terrible experince.

The gameplay itself isn't that bad but its quite horrible compared to the previous DMC titles.

Glad I didn't have to do Sunken Ghost Ship or W7 castle (not Bowser) with small Mario... I'm pretty terrible at those. Without Yoshi/Super Mario you can't take the Star Road in W2. Feels fresh enough in a SMW run that doesn't require 96 exits.

So many cool challenges in this game... there's the usual 96 exit, then Special World "first", all Yoshi Coins, no switches, small Mario only... I wish SMB3 was open like this.

Ended up beating NG3. My opinion hasn't changed. Unless someone finds some kind of method to skip battles or to defeat the more annoying bosses fast (looking at you, Regent of the Mask), this is just a pretty and empty action game.

You know what's weird? Maybe if NG3 was about 50% shorter, it would have been enjoyable enough to plow through. One fight is usually pretty cool, you can distribute those kills and power up Ninpo with the little strategy the game allows. And there are tons of different enemy types that can be fun to fight. As it is, however, it's just way too long and repetitive.

Starting some Genesis games today!

I suggest getting a DS lite. If you have any GBA games, you can play them on that as well. DSi is restricted to DS games, with no backwards compatibility.

True. But after owning all three versions of the DS, I can say the Phat has the worst screen of the bunch. Especially when you're in a bright place, you can barely see anything on the screen. Both DS lite and DSi have a much brighter display.

Because the DSi doesn't have shitty rescaling.

I can't play my DS games on my 3DS because the upscale makes everything so [tornado fang]ing ugly.

That, and I can use my Action replay with my DSi.

You are seriously exaggerating, I barely even notice it myself.

It's very noticeable to me. Namely when you play a game using 3D polygons like SM64. I wouldn't say it becomes ugly, but the upscale makes the colors and pixels stretch out a lot. When playing it on the DS lite, everything is so much crisper and vibrant, as it is in its native resolution.

There is an option on the 3DS to downscale DS games to their native resolution (hold down the Start button when booting up a DS game), but it makes the screen extremely tiny to point where it's not worthwhile to play it.

Vectorman is interesting. The controls are too slippery for my taste and you have to mash the button way too much. Also wish the power-ups were permanent (at least until you die). And the top view stages are sooo lame. Other than that, it's an enjoyable game.

Fine, ill tell. Yes, my Ps3 is jailbroken. And before you could not play PS1 games on it without using a special USB dongle. Even then it was very low compitabilty mode.
And not only that, the USB is expensive. But now, the homebrew im using allows me to play Ps1 games.

Why is this such a great thing? Well,for one i get accurate loading/graphics and feel as if im playing on a real Playstation.
And that is the BEST part that gets shoved off when you play on a PC with a emulator.
Really! Try playing a Snes game on a Super Nintendo with the controller, then use a keyboard and a emulator, it is not the same feeling.

Since I'm still playing the classic "Tiberian Sun", just finished the GDI campaign and was hoping that the constant crashing caused by lasers and disruptors was over. Then started the Nod campaign, and then when I start going against GDI, it came back to torment me. I can see why I never liked GDI, they must be the reason the lasers and disruptors crash the game.

Going to try modify some mechanics if I have the right file present, since every possible solution to remedy this plague has failed.

Started Journey. Interesting co-op feature. Though one guy I ran into was kind of dumb and just walking aimlessly all over this one big hall expecting to find something nifty. I eventually had to turn it off for dinner at a rather intense part that felt kid of dickish to ditch the actually competent partner I was with by that point. We were struggling against the harsh environment together and here I just sit down for a moment and disappear from existence.

Other than that I was semi-forced into borrowing Red Dead Redemption off a friend in return for him borrowing my Metroid Prime Trilogy. Once again I am terrible with horse controls. Hasn't been this bad since Shadow of the Colossus. Of course like that game it turns out the main problem is I'm trying to take full manual control when just a simple hold of a button keeps things fairly on rails.

Also trekking through Ys Origin since I never actually finished every character's route. But when each one is going through the same tower again I'm rather unmotivated to do such.

Aaand maybe starting to put some semi-regular effort into playing Persona 3 FES. I feel like I'm way behind in progress for Tartarus in relation to other events but I've no idea if there's actual consequence for such.

I got back into New Vegas. I love the atmosphere in this game AND how I can relate to most of it because I live in Vegas myself. When the Mr. New Vegas radio guy mentioned the NCR's monorail system breaking down I laughed. Very loudly. Because in real life, the monorail system across The Strip breaks down constantly to where we call in the "Monofail". I was amazed from the moment I entered Primm because of how accurately they captured it.

I also reinstalled Dishonored so I can finally play Dunwall City Trials while waiting for The Knife of Dunwall to come out.

And I'm still playing Thief - Deadly Shadows. I'd have played the first two but I could get any patches to work out right (mostly due to too short an attention span at the time) and that the controls were a little primitive and hard to get used to. TDS's stealth is really fun though. Top notch stuff. If not a little difficult to make out exactly where a guard's footsteps are coming from. Still not looking forward to Shalebridge Cradle.

I finally started Metroid Prime. But it lags quite a bit which kind of breaks the immersion. I'll tweak Dolphin's settings a bit but if it doesn't improve I might have to drop it until I can get a legit copy to pop into my Wii.

Playing Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc still.

Finally, I've picked Elsword and Rusty Hearts back up and started Microvolts for a bit of online action. Playing the former of the three the most. Rena is best Elsword girl. Angela is best Rusty Hearts character. And Microvolts is like TF2 for ten year olds. Which is redundant because TF2 is played mostly by ten year olds.
Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread
Post by: Suppercut ♡ on March 17, 2013, 01:16:15 AM
Microvolts is like TF2
Why does everyone force this connection? It's not even class-based, for [tornado fang] sake! I mean, AFAIK it USED to be an exact copy of TF2 before it released, but now I'd compare it more to HL2DM or Duke Nukem or something.

And I know it sounds like I'm an MV fanboy, but I actually dislike it. There's only one thing about it that cannot be defended no matter what: its terrible level design. If it wasn't all shitty, compressed rat maps I'd take a bit more interest. Hell, there's rat maps BETTER than the [parasitic bomb] I stepped into. If you can see the enemy's spawn from your spawn, give up. Especially when you have to make yourself open as [parasitic bomb] just to get to fighting grounds (looking straight at that [parasitic bomb] chess table map).

It's also another one of those games where your bought weapons have a time limit on them >_>

Symphonia's one of my GC games that my older brother had in his collection. Too bad I don't have access it to enjoy on my Wii. He sold it.  ;O;

Anyway, I'm messing around in NG+ on BioShock, got to Fort Folic and hitch the stupidest idea of going about completing Cohen's "masterpiece". Rather than take the photos of his dead apprentices like normal, I was like "No, you're getting their butt-cheeks instead", and did exactly that. The results were worth a few laughs. >0< Can't help hating the guy for being a twisted artist and like him for some memorable lines.

-EDIT-
One thing I can't stand about Fort Folic, or rather the thing that freaks me out the most, are those Plaster Splicers. It's like being stalked by Weeping Angels or SCP-173 only without "breaking eye-contact will end badly for you" part. Unlike common Spider Splicers, these Splicers are much stealhier than Naruto, they attack without warning and pop up when you least expect it, and they've been spooking people long before Creepers. What's more disturbing is how can they find you, let alone breathe with the plaster covering their entire head!

Finished the next DLC for Capcom Arcade Cabinet that appeared today. (http://www.trueachievements.com/Capcom-Arcade-Cabinet/achievements.htm?showall=1&gamerid=284902)

This one had Trojan, Legendary Wings and Side Arms. The DLC before it had Ghosts n Goblins, Gun.Smoke and Section Z.

Surprisingly, Gun.Smoke is (currently) the hardest game in the collection, GnG can still be beat with a couple of attempts, even with set check points that puts you back to a certain point after death. Gun.Smoke's check points are the worst, and each time, you're losing one point of your power ups too, and get pushed so far away from the stage boss. You can look at more than 6-8 hours game time if you have decent skill at the game, even more if you keep losing. No save feature in these collections either so you have to start over if you turn off the system. 1 hit deaths doesn't make it any easier, while in GnG, you can afford being hit twice, which makes it easier. Trojan's stage 5 stage and boss is very tough too, you'd spend so much time trying to beat it, near impossible unless you have patience to keep playing the stage without stopping. ^^;

I can't believe I wasted five hours of my life beating Megaman X3. I don't even know why I even bothered, but there I went slugging through all of the shitty enemies and levels, getting frustrated as [parasitic bomb].

Though, X3 does have a couple of redeeming factors. The subweapons are actually a bit more useful (although partly due to the upgraded X-Buster being so broken as [parasitic bomb]), and the Head-E is a godsend.

Yeah, I know the game uses MotionPlus for pretty much everything, but trust me, my problem is not the cursor centering. It's only an issue when I point to the right, probably because of the clarity as a result of my huge window. At night, there's no problem at all. I read that the sensor bar is still used for reference sometimes, kinda like a compass.

Been through 2 Wiimotes, both with the same issue, so it can't be my controller... :\

I haven't posted here in while, probably would talk about what I've been playing lately...

BioShock (Xbox 360)
Still messing around in the first game before I tackle BioShock 2. I'm playing a fresh new game on Survivor and it's somewhat more challenging than, and that's because I'm skipping the health and EVE upgrades from the Gatherer's Garden though I got a bit of extra health and EVE from fully researching the Little Sisters.

[spoiler=Significant story spoilers!]Might need it when Fontaine starts messing with my heart and weaken my health (while at the same time, boosting my EVE, what an idiot) after "would you kindly?" stopped working when Bridget cured his mind-control on me.[/spoiler]

Yahtzee is right about one of things in BioShock 1, it is possible to amass items and over-power most of your opponents with little effort, hence where the self-imposed challenge comes in. I'll probably dump some of my money on gambling to bring my wallet down, but when did that one time before a Bouncer went berserk like Ms. Simian from The Amazing World of Gumball steroids and clocked me, I ended up winning the jackpot.

Ultimate Knight Windom XP (PC, Doujin)
Replaying this game's Aracde Mode to re-unlock the mechas now I am using an English patch for v2.008, but fierce [tornado fang] does the computer cheat. The last few stages of Arcade Mode puts you in a hopeless with mechs that not only outnumber you and your idiot of a team-mate in these fights, but also over-power your team as well. What also screws you over is either your idiot team-mates will get themselves killed, leaving YOU to take the onslaught, or they get destroyed so many times they drain your team's battle meter quickly. Thank God the people at the Amecha forums made cheat programs to turn the playing field to the players' advantage. Normally I'm against cheating, but in this case: fudge it!

DuckTales (NES)
I have to say, I still regret not playing this as a kid because I'm really liking this game so far. I so far was able to play through the Amazon stage, it was challenging but finding some of the secrets blind felt pretty rewarding. I can see why WayForward are simplifying some of the stuff for HD remastering like po-go jumping of Scrouge's cane, but that's nothing a little bit of practice can't fix. I got stuck in Magica De Spell's level and lost all my lives there. Such a confusing place...

On the side, I'm messing with MotioninJoy to use a PS3 controller to play a few of my doujin games with; Crescent Pale Mist on PC almost like PSN version without the English and updated graphics. Listening Zakat's boss theme from Z.O.E The 2nd Runner while typing this with my Wii really me wish I had Z.O.E HD for my Xbox 360 right about now. I miss grabbing dudes and beating the crap out of them with thier team-mates... :'(

I don't have Space Marine, but I do have Kill Team since it's a Shoot'em Up (shmup) type game (http://www.trueachievements.com/Kill-Team/achievements.htm?gamerid=284902). I'm slow-pacing that game tho, since I have a huge backlog of other games to finish. ^^;

Harp mini-game... that [dark hold]!

100%'d Skyward Sword on Hero. At least all the quest items and major collectables. I'm not getting 99 of each insect/treasure 'cause that would be slightly insane...

Boss rush was tough. I'm sure with practice it's no big deal, but fighting those bosses with constant brain farts and crappy reflex doesn't make it any easier. I got hit by Tentalus' first tentacles... so dumb. Also, I used a Guardian Potion+ (with Potion Medal) to enter the boss rush with 6 minutes of invincibility. You can't use potions during the boss rush, but if you drink something just before talking to the Thunder Dragon, the effects carry over. That gave me 3-4 freebie fights.

Now I'm considering getting back to Twilight Princess. Should be interesting, there are things I know I'll enjoy instantly (like Epona) and things I know will be disappointing coming from Skyward Sword (like the Wii controls).

Playing (Or trying to, at least) play Tomb Raider, the original one that is.

Uhh, lots of problems getting it going.

-Controller support is non-existant thanks to it being the MS-DOS version slapped into a Dosbox (I got it working eventually, but for some reason Jump is bound on both X and Square.)
-The game's glide wrapper settings were way too [tornado fang]ing bright to start with, which of course carried over to my desktop. I got them fixed eventually.
-I downloaded the expansion pack and a method of getting the music from the Playstation version, and now the game hangs after the opening videos.
-The opening videos look like ass, I'm not talking about in terms of cheapo CGI I mean they look like this:

@RMZX: As far as I know, there's no way to correct FMVs in Dosbox without scalers.
But, I just pulled my disc out and installed it, and the game plays pretty well.
(http://i.imgur.com/02WxQ1J.png)

Also, check the settings in your dosbox.conf as there are a few things that can make it run better:

[sdl] -> fullresolution, output
[render] -> scaler

If you set fullresolution to your native res, it will actually letterbox it for you if needed. Use in conjunction with your preferred scaler, for when you go fullscreen.
My output is set to opengl; you could change it to ddraw maybe, but opengl works for me. Just... something other than surface.

No story progress after Lakebed in TP, just chilling and exploring the world. Now that I have Clawshot and bombs, most caves and cliffs are now accessible. Even though I know the rewards usually suck (oooh, another Purple Rupee!), it's fun to explore all those caves with the Lantern and stuff.

I don't get lure fishing in this game. I throw the hook and rotate the Nunchuk when the fish bites the lure, but it always escapes close to the canoe.

Also, Lake Hylia in TP is one of my favorite places in the series... so peaceful...

That's how I ended up liking the original game. The original game had some great interaction between the characters, partly because they fit well together. You had a nerd, a dork, a psycho, and the [tornado fang]ing Heavy. This game...you kinda have three psychos and an annoying little [parasitic bomb]. GLaDOS has her funny lines, but firstly, she pokes her head into a lot of conversations, making them seem really forced, and I really missed the enthusiasm of the old dealer. I miss "The player has...A FLUSH!" which is abandoned for "*insert quip here* has a full house. e__e " She also makes way more commentary on how players win. I KNOW I have the higher pair, GLaDOS, I know you like to call people stupid but come on!

In general something feels off with the gameplay. Part of it is, I'm guessing, the pointlessly raised stakes which only serves to confuse the [parasitic bomb] out of someone like me who has played Poker Night 1 over and over again. Then there's the bounty. You know, when it came to Poker Night 1, the item system made a lot more sense. A character was like, "[tornado fang] I don't have the money. Have a gun I guess," or something to that effect. But the item system now is "Hey so the player is so super special that you have to wager something extra because I said so" "okay fine whatever even though I really don't want to do this." Not only that, but you have to actually WIN the tournament instead of bust him out, which pointlessly drags out any item run.

Then there's the voice acting. Max outstays his welcome by being way more than a background character, which is where he really belongs since Telltales clearly lost his voice actor, and now he just sounds disgustingly bad. Sam just sounds off. We all have complaints for Ashley's voice, I'll bet. Brock...well I don't know him, but he tends to deliver most of his lines in the exact same tone almost every time, which I know this voice actor can do better. Craptrap and GLaDOS are, ironically, the only spot-on characters.

I could go on, but...I'm assuming I've already outstayed my welcome, so TL;DR didn't like the voice acting, gameplay is off, and the characters don't seem matched well.

i don't really know much of the characters in PN2 myself other than GLaDOS and Claptrap, so my biggest issue is that Claptrap is there to begin with. I know he's like a mascot for Borderlands but he really needs to shut the [tornado fang] up like holy [parasitic bomb]. There is a reason every character in his own game and even this one despise him. Steve 'Heyyoo' the Bandit who got in as a background character would've been so much better. Or literally any other character from Borderlands 2. Especially the villain Handsome Jack.

And for some reason my brother has Cry of Fear on Steam. Not sure how he was able to convince my family to fork over money to buy it when that money could have been used to get my VERY belated limited edition copy of Z.O.E HD Collection, or better yet, use that money make this damn depressing house repair crap I'm going through that's stopping me from the things I want to buy cheap go by quicker, but eh.

I've been playing 1187 and Triage more, actually. Out of all four, 1187 is the best. Stanley takes second place though. I'm playing Triage because a couple of guys on Reddit advertised it and it's buggy as hell and kind of ugly, but it makes up for it with pretty good weapon mechanics and balancing and out of all first person shooters I've played, a source mod made by a couple college guys has the best large-scale battles I've ever played.

Pick up 2 or 3 to start off. 1 is a [tornado fang]ing weak game. WEAK AS [parasitic bomb].

Anyway.

I've beat the main storyline of HACK GU games, and now I can do whatever the [tornado fang] I want in VOL 3. Cool.

Also, I've found that rising my level to 134 before fighting the Azue Trio, and then updating the dual guns with "Cheat Alchemizing" (No seriously. That's what it's called. You use key items called "cheat codes" to do it.)  Was enough to last me through all to the final boss. I [tornado fang]ing RAPED THE FINAL BOSS!

All in all. I feel quite satisfied.

Started picking up where I last left off in the original La-Mulana. Using the Grapple Claw and the Feather's double-jump is trickier here than it is in the remake. Took me some time to figure out the timing to actually perform wall kicks since timing has to be on point or you'll fail the jump, and double-jumping here is much like using the Space Jump in Super Metroid where if you're off your jump timing you can't jump again until you land on ground. Managed to get the Gauntlet, the Diviner Sensation ROM to summon fairies, the Spears and a few more Life Jewels.

[spoiler=La-Mulana easter eggs]And I found The Maze of Galious room, although it seems like the broken ladder going up takes you to the underside of Endless Corridor whereas in the remake, it only takes you to the first few areas in the original (in 8-bit MSX form no less) where you can find the La-Mulana software.[/spoiler]

Started a new file because I wanted to power up Travis from scratch. Not sure that was the best decision... I forgot how tedious the overworld is. To be fair, I haven't been forced to repeat any side jobs/assassinations, but the mission entry costs are getting scary.

Still wish all missions were about 10x shorter, but I enjoy the combat, and the bosses and cutscenes are amazing. This game is just so full of style. Travis is my favorite new character this gen.

I'm playing Half-Life 2, and I found out that the broken rollermine that DOG plays with just before the Ravenholm chapter can not only be taken to the next level, but actually stays active in between maps, following me around and distracting zombies. It was so cute that I named it Ron and vowed to protect it and keep it safe from harm.

However I now have limited my arsenal of thrown items... give me a room full of red barrels and I'm gonna get stuck throwing Ron at people. Plus Ron, despite being bulletproof and zombieproof, is not fireproof or electricproof (basically anything involving a trigger_hurt or fire damage), which will be a challenge when fire traps get abundant.

Knowing how much I love the game, I'll be dropping the cash.  Bugs?  I play around with alpha-stage programs with poor user interfaces.  I'd play Phoenix Wright via command line.

Finished Remember Me.

I don't get the hate it gets. It's not GoTY, but it's a memorable, well written game. The story, characters and setting are cyberpunk done right, and the score is fantastic. Particularly the themes that change when fighting.

The gameplay is linear, but not bad, and the fighting is alright, although theres little motivation to string combos when it's much easier to use the basic 3 hit, since otherwise you will get hit.

All in all, it's a good game. not great, but good, especially for the first game by the studio.

I playing Super Crate Box earlier, and hoo boy does this game like to kick me in the balls, and, as I fall, kicked me there again. :(

BioShock (Xbox 360)
For some reason, the v1.1 update causes some of the free DLC plasmids and tonics to be removed. So I started a new game on Easy without the patch and only with the DLC pack. I know this wasn't necessary, but I wanted my Lv.2 Force Push Sonic Boom.

System Shock 2 (PC)
I managed to get to the second area in the game, and think I'm about to enter the third area. Not sure which perk upgrade I should get that would help me in the long run. I should write a note to myself: stop making a game harder to artificially make it scarier. I can get by with just the wrench, but when I trip a security camera, that's when fan hits the shat for me. I hope the "Thief" route I'm going with my character is gonna help me with repairing my weapons later.

I'm also trying to play Splatterhouse 3 included in the 2010 remake, but jeez the difficulty can be fake at times. Stage 5 is already becoming "That One Level" with me. :|

What the [tornado fang] is wrong with naming Pokemon?
Nothin' at all. During my competitive battling days in D/P, I always nicknamed my mains. Heck, I even nicknamed the color palates I made for Virtual-ON: Oratorio Tangram since the console version gives you the option.

I'm doing a 30-game marathon as a sort of goodbye to my 20s. Must start and finish one game every day. About halfway through now.

Here's the list:

- Batman Returns (SNES) » Done!
- Bayonetta » Done!
- Castlevania: Rondo of Blood (Maria) » Done!
- Castlevania: Symphony of the Night
- Super Castlevania 4
- Contra III » Done!
- Demon's Souls (NG+++)
- Dark Souls » Done!
- Donkey Kong Country 2 » Done!
- The Legend of Zelda » Done!
- Mega Man 2 » Done!
- Mega Man 3
- Mega Man X » Done!
- Metroid Prime » Done!
- Metroid Prime 2
- Super Metroid
- Ninja Gaiden 2 (NES, first playthrough special!)
- Ninja Gaiden Sigma » Done!
- Resident Evil 2
- REmake » Done!
- Shinobi III
- Silent Hill
- Sonic 3 & Knuckles (Knuckles run)
- Streets of Rage 2 » Done!
- Super Ghouls 'N Ghosts (true ending)
- Super Mario Bros. 3 (warpless) » Done!
- Super Mario Galaxy (61 Stars) » Done!
- Super Mario World (warpless)
- Turtles in Time » Done!
- Vanquish » Done!

I tried to make the list as varied as possible, but I also couldn't put all these really long games that would take me 10 hours to beat. Most of them are pretty reasonable to finish in one night without rushing.

Dark Souls took me 3 hours and 45 minutes, starting a new character. Demon's Souls will be new game+++, which means... all enemies deal like 3x damage. But I have all my crazy powerful weapons. Hopefully I can do it!

It's actually not that bad.  The item drops are common enough that you can rack up the XP for your super attacks fairly easily, so long as you have a decent enough mob on the boss.

And, uh, use a negate-counter skill if it's at all possible. :|

I try to make it a point to kill ALL of the "boss" characters and not just those necessary to clear the chapter.  I figure the extra experience will come in handy.

The main problem is that you don't have any control of what characters you move, everything is set in an order before a turn begins, so you could move Frank West and Hsein-Ko right away then have four enemies and maybe the boss move&attack/do nothing before you move... Say, Dante and Demitri. Also I believe solo characters are unable to be used seperately like in NxC, so you have even less characters to toss around.

Except for those [tornado fang]ing Timeless River cars. That I remember being [tornado fang]ing [parasitic bomb] to deal with.

Anyways I'm also encountering a lot of bosses and "press triangle to not die" moments that I don't remember at all.

NxC is actually at a much slower pace than PxZ, though, since enemy attacks take forever.  PxZ only resorts to enemy cutscenes when a boss uses a special attack.  Also, I appreciate the fact that PxZ has a solid turn structure (the fact that every character actually does move once per turn).  One of my pet peeves in NxC is the fact that your "defensive" commands radically impact the turn order; to such a degree that defending yourself against a boss can lead to the boss attacking the same character multiple times before said character ever has the chance to do anything else.  Ditto for Multiple Assaults.  It makes it very difficult to actually determine what the best move is because you only have a rough idea of how a given action will impact your turn order.  In PxZ you're worried strictly about managing the XP bar, which makes it easier to plan.

So it's all show and no fluff. They rake in the profits from all the big-name characters joined in one roster.

*sigh* I was worried about that.
And just what the hell is wrong with fanservice?  Seriously, I'm asking this as somebody who sank hundreds of hours into FE Awakening's Lunatic + Mode.  Not every games needs to be a ball-breaking-dominate-your-life challenge.  I'm loving the introduction to characters whose games I rarely play, and hell, it's REIJI AND XIAOMU MEET X AND ZERO, that's reason enough.

Plus Iris. 8)

Isn't that just... One map?

Its also a really early map in the game.
Not THAT early.  I think it's somewhere in the teens.  But IIRC it's a little watered down as compared to the actual game's map.

I expected it to let the player ponder about their next move, and not just spam random attacks to win.
What little strategy there is really has little to do with the map and more to do with how you time your attacks in order to do the most damage (and/or milk the most XP to enable skills/attacks later).  It's simple, yes, but it's more engaging than you might think.

Nobody who's ever played Yoshi Story judges a game solely by it's challenge, and I suppose PxZ may be best described as the strategy equivalent to that.  While it's extraordinarily difficult to "game over", there is definitely an advantage to knowing how to manage your attacks, items, and skills.  Beat down the optional high-level characters and you get better items to use later.  But if you want to suck and get by on the minimum, well, you can probably still clear the levels without too much trouble.

Never died yet, and it's rare that I have to "revive" a fallen teammate.  But I will say this: KOS-MOS's intro level was pretty nerve-wracking.

And just what the hell is wrong with fanservice?  Seriously, I'm asking this as somebody who sank hundreds of hours into FE Awakening's Lunatic + Mode.  Not every games needs to be a ball-breaking-dominate-your-life challenge.

Oh, there's absolutely nothing wrong with fanservice. Only when said fanservice is just that and basically nothing else to swallow with it. It may be great to see all these famous characters in one game, but if there's little-to-no strategy in a STRATEGY game, then... it's not justifying the genre at hand, now is it?

Again, like I said before, ALL SHOW AND NO FLUFF. There's no point in playing a game that can't deliver a challenging experience; or rather, no point in playing a strategy game that can't deliver a challenging experience. No, it doesn't have to be a "ball-breaking-dominate-your-life challenge" like Awakening's Lunatic modes, but it should still offer a substantial enough challenge to make you feel like you're actually accomplishing a risky and exhilarating task.

it's REIJI AND XIAOMU MEET X AND ZERO, that's reason enough.

Plus Iris. 8)

"That's reason enough"? Was it really that simple to make you cough up dough for this?

What little strategy there is really has little to do with the map and more to do with how you time your attacks in order to do the most damage (and/or milk the most XP to enable skills/attacks later).  It's simple, yes, but it's more engaging than you might think.

Never died yet, and it's rare that I have to "revive" a fallen teammate.  But I will say this: KOS-MOS's intro level was pretty nerve-wracking.

From what I played in both eShop demos, it is indeed engaging to manage attacks and such. Well, even if you could only manage as much as a demo allows.

But I can tell it gets old after a while. As I've also heard from many other people that have actually beat the game.

Once you get the juggling times down and manage the XP gauge with ease, there's even less challenge than what you start with.

First and foremost, this is a STRATEGY game. If it's extraordinarily difficult to get a game over, that says it all. It fails what it sets out to do. Managing your [parasitic bomb] will make the game easier than the already easy experience.

You said it yourself: if you want to suck and get by on the minimum, you can probably still clear the levels without too much trouble.

This game takes a dump on the strategy genre.

I've been messing around with Doom 64 EX v2.3, and I have to say Kaiser did a pretty good job with this conversion of the N64 original. Hi-resolution settings (4:3 settings needs work though since the screen doesn't center in fullscreen), custom settings to enable mouse-look (not just for turning, but also able to look up and down, which is nice so I can admire pixelated hellish scenery) and whatnot, customizable controls (although I don't have much of choice with a Xbox 360 controller unfortunately; only "classic" or "modern" presets). Despite being only made for 32-bit systems, I was able to run this on my brother's Windows 7 64-bit just fine. This a pretty good alternative for Doom 3 since the music here in Doom 64 is not the rockin' metal style from Doom 1 and 2 (which I don't mind), but instead we're treated to some rather dark, dreary, and ominous music. Have a listen.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fisg6aq01js[/youtube]

This is my first time playing Doom 64 in any shape or form. I didn't knew about this installment of Doom at all until I saw HVGN's review on it, and instead of being another port of Doom, this is an entirely new game. I'm liking this Doom though, its right up there next to Doom 3 of the two Doom games I've ever played. So far I got into the first secret level, Hectic, and this secret level is kicking my balls around like a hacky sack since I'm playing this on "I Own Doom". If the Arachnotrons didn't kill me when I went down in one of the rooms to get the red skull key and rocket launcher, it'll be the lava pit in the other room with the blue skull key since its so frickin' easy to fall off a ledge. And if that doesn't do it, it's the damn Hell Knights in that same room that will. :P

The thing is, I figured out in 1989 (http://www.gamefaqs.com/nes/587309-godzilla-monster-of-monsters) that just because a game features characters moving on a board, doesn't necessarily mean that unit positioning is the meat of the experience.  In PxZ, there's juggling in combat, there's customization in managing your gear and third-unit pairings, there is the need to plan ahead for the all-too-common Boss Counter-Attacks (and having multiple bosses on the map is a regular thing once you get far enough), and there is the whimsical appeal of watching the dialogue between these characters who don't otherwise interact in any other game ever (Zero talking to Devilotte is hilarious).  Is it repetitive?  Well, yes, but if that in itself is considered a criticism then there are probably better places to hang on the internet than a Mega Man community...

I'd also submit to you that the Game Over screen isn't a terribly common sight in Fire Emblem either; rather the game's perma-death system (optional in Awakening) mandates perfection.

"That's reason enough"? Was it really that simple to make you cough up dough for this?
No.  It was that simple to get me to cough up dough to install a flip-top on my PS2 and import Namco X Capcom.

I have fond memories of that game; fell in love with it LONG before I got far enough to unlock Volnutt, and that is why I'm so nuts over Reiji and Xiaomu to begin with.  So, if I know and approved of the formula already, why SHOULDN'T I shell out the money for PxZ?

Incidentally, Namco X Capcom is both easier and slower than Project X Zone.

I'm extremely creeped out by that thought. :o
Don't worry, I wouldn't buy it.  ...I'd have nightmares of a replica-Zero slicing me in half.

Is it repetitive?  Well, yes, but if that in itself is considered a criticism then there are probably better places to hang on the internet than a Mega Man community...

Repetition can refer to any aspect in a game.

In this case, I don't see how you can compare Mega Man's "repetition" to PxZ's.

In PxZ, the battle controls are: A, Up/Down+A, Right/Left+A, the team L+R shoulder buttons and Y for special attacks. That's fine.

Now, in order to preform 5 of your moves instead of 4, you have to time each one of these (A, Up+A, Left+A, Right+A) all while making sure the enemy doesn't touch the ground. If successful, you can preform your 5th move (Let's say: Up+A), combined with pressing either/both shoulder button (and of course Y, if you have enough XP). RINSE. AND REPEAT.

Oh, and equipping skills or whatever, which I'm sure is extraordinarily simple. What changes are more powerful, flashier moves. But when all said in done, it's still incredibly repetitive.

Now, you said Mega Man games are repetitive; maybe the classic Mega Man games, when the controls, powers and stage layouts were incredibly simple. But I can't say the same for the rest of the franchise.

And even then, not only are the classic games difficult as [parasitic bomb], you need impeccable precision for a ton of those stages. The basic act of "repetition" dictates you to do a motion or routine over and over again. I guess in some ways, those games are repetitive, but you still have to maneuver and time your actions through the stages, find weaknesses as well as various memory-esque puzzles (disappearing/reappearing platforms). One little slip up, and you're dead. It doesn't hold your hand.

PxZ has you standing in one place, mashing the same series of buttons, timing or otherwise, it doesn't make a difference. There's not much of a challenge.

And if multiple bosses on one map are the only things you have to worry about, then that's not really good game design. You just plow right through the enemies like nothing and suddenly the difficulty skyrockets with Boss "counter-attacks"? Sorry, I can't swallow that.

I'd also submit to you that the Game Over screen isn't a terribly common sight in Fire Emblem either; rather the game's perma-death system (optional in Awakening) mandates perfection.

But see, that's another point against PxZ; apparently it's difficult to even lose a teammate. For Awakening, the only way to get Game Over is if your Avatar or Chrom dies.

So theoretically, you could have the remainder of your soldiers charge into enemy territory and have them killed in a blink of an eye. And you still wouldn't get a Game Over. But depending on the weapons you give them, the experience you've grinded with them and avoiding the enemies that they're vulnerable against, can make all the difference between life and death.

That kind of depth can't be found in PxZ.

You said Awakening's perma-death mandates perfection. Well, if PxZ had a perma-death system, you wouldn't have to worry so much anyway, now would you, Shell?

I downloaded the demo for Project X Zone and I actually really liked it, but I liked it in the pick-up-and-play randomly way where extended play sessions might get exhausting and repetitive (yes, I'm on the it's-kind-of-repetitive side).  It's a game I could play in small doses and enjoy thoroughly - I mean it looks great - but as a full-price game I just can't justify it.  Maybe once it comes used or discounted on the eShop (like that'll ever happen), but for now I'll have to make due with the 3 remaining uses on my demo download.  >_>

As for what I'm playing, I'm finding myself going back and forth between Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D and Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon.  I'm loving Donkey Kong so far and the only reason I haven't beaten it yet is because the stages are so difficult and long (I haven't played the series in many years so I'm allowed to suck a little... >_>), but that's a good thing and I love how tight the controls are and how beautiful the scenery looks in 3D (even though I have to turn it off a lot to avoid dying).  Luigi's Mansion is fun, and very well done... but I got lost too many times and then just lost interest about 10% through (maybe I just suck as a gamer?!?).  

I anxiously look forward to Pokémon X and Y though - say what you will about the games but they have a very solid battle system with surprisingly deep mechanics, so anything the sequels can do to refine or add to that system are great additions in my books (and all the new characters are pluses too!).  Hopefully this is the generation I can finally get my boyfriend to play with me again - he's been avoiding the series since Diamond/Pearl due to the "poor graphics and animations".  He's such a graphics whore. ;)

You're on a roll today.

That's precisely how I feel about it as well. The game is fun, but not full-price fun. Like you said, the repetition will get exhausting fast for long play sessions.

I don't care how many characters they stuff in there that I love; I don't see the point in getting it when there isn't much depth as a strategy game.

I imagine a lot of that has to do with whether or not said digital shop is still active.  Servers and digital selection are not eternal, after all.  The same-gen stuff, like the first run of Phoenix Wright on the DS, probably wont happen as often (but it probably will happen, since the digital alternative is not a universal thing).

I thought Golden Abyss is a pretty good Uncharted experience, though not nearly as great as Among Thieves. That game is something everyone should play. Abyss does indeed feel long, and I believe that's because it has the most chapters out of all the games in the franchise.

honestly the only worthwhile AC to try is 2.

the individual chapters in Golden Abyss are certainly shorter at least. Not sure how to compare it to Deception yet since while the story was a mess in that one I'm a bit of a sucker for the Lawrence or Indy style of desert environments and especially the kind of music that accompanies it.

Personally, I could never watch a game like that in a LP. Same for BioShock Infinite

Those type of immersive games are best experienced first-hand.

I watched Cry's LP. He's really good about letting you experience the story properly then commentating when everything's cooled down again.

I played BioShock Infinite first, at least. But my experience was kind of ruined by Intel graphics.

Started Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon.

My sniper rifle doesn't have a zoom yet so I'm just using the bow and arrow instead. Much more satisfying to kill with, plus stealthier. My only other experience with the series is a bit of 2 and it seems not much hasn't changed in the environment making it a [sonic slicer] to get from place to place with constant enemy patrols and now hostile wildlife in addition. At least this game is probably a fair while shorter than the main entries so it's enough to tolerate in this instance. I just wanna go through the whole thing with almost nothing but the bow used.

Half-Life: Source (PC)
Assassin's Creed II (360)
X-Men Origins: Wolverine (360)

I kind of cheated my way through some of the more unfavorable parts of HL in my first run so going through it legit this time I'm seeing a lot of areas and paths I didn't know existed until now. I also realize that this game is maddeningly difficult on easy (and I've played as much as I can on hard as well). I don't remember the goldsrc version being this hard.

Also I started Wolverine on Normal (because I'm not a pussy) and I really obviously suck at beat-'em-ups.

Trying out Better DS3 yesterday. Just as I gushed about it here (http://forum.rockmanpm.com/index.php?topic=7088.msg391406#msg391406), this program is the shiznight. :D

(http://i.imgur.com/wSrffMK.jpg)

As you can see, MUCH cleaner and elegant interface compared to ShovelwareinJoy's. This shot shows me using the Direct Input configuration for my brother's PS3 controller and the Direct Input controls works wonders for my older PC games and doujin games. Played around with the PC versions of Mega Man X4 (someone made a Japanese in-game voice patch for it too) and X8, Crescent Pale Mist, Streets of Rage Remake v5.0a, Ultimate Knight Windom XP, RayCrisis' PC port, and Acceleration of SUGURI X-Edition and it works beautifully. It also has XInput for newer games out there, and my games believed my brother's PS3 controller was an Xbox 360 controller for those that supported it. The only downside to this for me is that you need MalwareinJoy's o.71001 drivers to work this thing (as of writing), but once you have those installed to your PS3 controller, you never have to touch MalwareinJoy's DS3 Tool ever again. In fact, uninstall it while listening to this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNCXiMt1bR4), it makes the set-up procedure of Better DS3 all the more awesome.

In the past week I started and cleared VVVVVV along with the first Splinter Cell.

VVVVVV was some of the biggest bullshit I've dealt with in a long while and I'm not sure if that's entirely up to the level design or the stupid [tornado fang]ing slippery momentum that's incredibly prevalent in any game like this that drives me up the wall. I can forgive it all though, because the music is [tornado fang]ing gorgeous. It's not strictly limited to the actual capabilities of 8bit but it's still some of the best chiptunes I've heard.

Splinter Cell meanwhile, i dunno what to think. Not too bad. There's absolutely no form of stats or score so there's really no difference between just knocking out a guard or killing them except a few missions the make the latter an automatic failure. I still got 2 more games to go through and I hear Chaos Theory was the height of the series, so I guess things can only go up from here.

YESSSSSSS I was hoping someone would bring up VVVVVV some time in this thread. Like you said, it definitely has some of the catchiest tunes in existence.

I have it on my 3DS and I love the game to death. I do agree that the momentum is slippery.

And honestly, even after dying so many [tornado fang]ing times, I can't stop loving it. When I die, I immediately come back for more, no matter how frustrating it gets. Don't even get me started on the Veni Vidi Vici (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4CtiY5D6HCs) challenge. I believe I died more than 200 times on that challenge alone, but for the love of God, I couldn't stop playing.

My death toll comes up to 1,161.

Interestingly, this is one of the very few uber-difficult games where I didn't storm out of the room in frustration. I think it's because the checkpoints are so forgiving that it gives you the incentive to continue over and over again.

This game made a masochist out of me. 8D

I tried to play Front Mission Evolved, but ther is a 1/2 to 1 second delay in the controls. The best excuse I could think of is it's a walking tank, but using the mouse kinda ruins that illusion. And there aren't any option for re-assigning "gamepad" controls. I'm sure it's a great game, but it's severely lacking in control options. And even if the input lag in "in universe", it's way worse than the delay in Gun Hazard, which I'm fine with.

Speaking of control woes, BYOND is slow as hell at times, I have to add macros for some of the controls (many games require a number pad, and my USB number pad doesn't do the job), and there's an odd sensitivity on the controls that I don't have to add.  Sometimes, the controls have a slight delay, or they're overly sensitive.  It's annoying, but you eventually get used to it.

I still like BYOND.  Glad I downloaded it.

Started Ys VI: The Ark of Napishtim.

Been wanting to play this since getting into the series. Only english release is a crude PS2 and PSP port from Konami though. This one is the original PC release with an english patch at least. Started and played it for 5 hours straight which I haven't done with any game in a long while. Despite being the predecessor of Oath and Origin, this one still has a few unique aspects that wouldn't appear in those titles, such as being able to equip multiple Accessories for passive bonuses. Never seen that in any other game of the series, really. Its method of the different magic types is also pretty neat and something I'd like to see return. Rather than just cycle through new swords along with the usual armour and shields, you have 3 elemental swords to select from and gradually upgrade them as you progress. Each has different attack styles and a finishing move of sorts that can be built up from dealing damage. Really helps this one stick out in what I initially thought would probably lack some of the features prominent in the later games. Also it's weird to see one of the side characters make mention of Altago as his homeland and backstory when that winds up being the setting of the 7th game as well as having one of the biggest conflicts the protag has ever gone through.

For seemingly no reason I've been doing a run of Ys II Chronicles+ on the highest difficulty, 'Nightmare'. EVERYTHING HURTS. At least this one has a ranged attack to keep distance from enemies. It's also the only way to fight all but 2 bosses anyway. Not sure if I'd be willing to Ys I on Nightmare because direct combat is the only option in that game and the level cap is 10 so damage is probably scaled even worse.

I got through to the end of the story mode, now I'm going back through and trying to get all the Gold Weapons and get VAN HANDRED PISSANT KAMPLESHIN. At least in this game, one hundred percent completion involves upgrading weapons to turn enemies into giant exploding chickens instead of combining weak weapons to get more weak weapons and then grinding the hell out of the weak weapons to make more weak weapons and all that [tornado fang]ing wanker-jazz.

Welp finished Brigmore Witches. The start of the final level was very green and white and pretty and oh my god I wish there were more remote areas like it in the main game. The non-lethal method of taking down the final boss was pretty dumb though. Apparently knocking her out blocks off the only non-lethal option which involves pulling a switcheroo while letting her go about her scheme initially. There was absolutely no hint prior. Maybe I missed something incredibly obvious that would make a note in the objectives. At least I had an autosave to revert to and do things right.

Come to think of it, it's rather reminiscent of the final 'boss' of Thief 1. Though they told you right at the start what the plan was since killing the guy was impossible in that case.

DuckTales: Remastered (Xbox 360)
DAMMIT! I was so, so very close to beating it on Extreme and thanks that forsaken final stretch at the end, hours of memorization and careful pogo-jumping gone to waste. Every time I try to climb up it's either a) my controller's D-pad that makes me miss the jump and I fall to my death, or b) the lava catches up to me while I desperately try to perfectly execute a pogo-jump. Ugh! o//////o

-EDIT-
This (http://youtube.com/watch?v=79c5JKjAQFg) pretty much describes how I feel about losing at the end in Extreme...

Other than that, I had great time with this remake. Even though I did saw entire the game through Vixy's livestream at Twitch, I still had fun with the game (granted I couldn't memorize all the secrets at the first, but think by now after hours of playing this I got most of it memorized). The remastered version of original game's music is nice, the game looks great and it feels like the TV series, controls are tight and responsive (though I wish I had a better controller), and the voice-acting is nothing short of top-notch. Well worth the $15.

Replaying some classic Sega games.

E-SWAT
I think this game is pretty cool. It doesn't have the most smooth controls or a great soundtrack, but the gameplay is well done. In this game, you're an average cop who becomes this ridiculous death machine (clearly not a RoboCop rip-off). When you're in "cop form", which is only for the first couple stages, you only have a pew pew pistol. But when you get the SWAT suit, the game suddenly turns into Contra. The level design is creative enough, you end up using all your tools in the most puzzle-y ways.

Shinobi III
I'm still amazed at how everything in this game is useful. There isn't a single move that isn't part of the strategy. Great music and level design too. Probably my favorite Genesis game along with S3&K.

Dynamite Headdy
This is one of the few games that I don't mind sucking at. Still, like most 16-bit Sega games, I really wish Dynamite Headdy was a bit more forgiving with the continues. The game is almost ALL boss fights, meaning you spend like 90% of the run memorizing patterns. I don't mind that in games that I play over and over, or that are more forgiving with the checkpoints, like Mega Man. But in this case, I know I'll forget a bunch of boss patterns in a couple months, and one attempt won't be enough. Took me 2 tries, the first one ending right after Twin Freaks.

I'm playing through Metroid: Other M again. I just picked it up recently and gave it a quick run through to get up to speed, and for all the grief people give it, it's managed to captivate me to go for that 100% run. I genuinely loved it. I also believe it had a more than decent story, better dialog and voice acting would have done it better justice, however. I did find it to have a decent metroid feel, and I rather accept it as Super Metroid's sequel. I'll put it above any of the primes in a heartbeat. This should be expanded. Since metroid (save for the prime trilogy which kinda chills out doing its own thing... Over and over and over) seems to have been on a cycle of exploration and linear titles since its inception, expand the world, offer more freedom, bring new power ups to bring the pain, and fight those slimy Feds.

THE KING OF FIGHTERS XIII STEAM EDITION - PC

That's actually how the title is written in my Steam library.

SNK JUST LOVES THEIR CAPITAL LETTERS DON'T THEY?

So I actually got around to trying to use my old PS2 controller adapter to play this and it actually worked long enough to give me an hour or two of gameplay without shorting, like it did the last few times I've used it. It's been a bit hard, but I've gotten the hang of it. I still got my ass handed to me by Raiden's team though. Like a young grasshopper, I have much to learn. Like the moveset of a character who isn't Terry Bogard. 8D

I respectfully disagree. Other M doesn't deserve to bear the Metroid name, the plot (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/lb_i.php?lb_id=13373815860B43920100) is horribly contrived and pretentious, the gameplay (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eNqBWMGUu_w) sacrifices the hallmark exploration Metroid is known for for a mediocre action game with no outstanding or redeemable quality, the atmosphere (i.e.: plant, fire, ice) is some of the most generic I've seen (even Prime 1 at least had interesting architecture and landmarks). It's not a mystery why Other M was deemed a flop (http://kotaku.com/5688617/nintendo-trying-to-figure-out-what-went-wrong-with-newest-metroid): it sucked (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pX4mhp-8sOc).

It's fine that you don't care for the Prime series. Heck, I don't really care for Prime 2 myself. But if you can't recognize the Prime trilogy as quality titles, I doubt you recognize what makes the Metroid series a household name.
Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread
Post by: SoloUnit315 on September 21, 2013, 08:10:15 PM
I've played the entire series from point a to point b. that said, I understand exactly what made Metroid a household title. Further more, I never once said I don't acknowledge the prime trilogy as a quality series. The transition of a title that is an expected platformer to first person is a difficult task to undertake, much less appeal to the prior fan base. It, however, did so beautifully, had a kindred feel to the games that came before it while at the same time being refreshing and had a plethora of power ups and locations that expanded the metroid universe. However, I am unswayed by popular opinion, much less why things are considered flops or whether or not they sold well. That is all irrelevent to me.

In my opinion, prime was three times trite and overdone. I'm not saying they got worse with each release, I'm saying they didn't get better. They are all on the same flat line of excellence. Anyone could start with any of the three and find it amazing, while it loses it's luster on the remaining two and becomes boring. I also feel that some of the charm was lost in deviating from the third person format.

To the opposing opinion of the atmosphere, I'll have to say it is very poorly supported. Elementally inspired areas have been at the core of the majority of the titles. Did it compare to the detail of anything in prime? No. However, "is it fun and nostalgic?" Is my main question of reasoning, graphically I could care less.

I respect your opinion, however I disagree with an extreme prejudice to everything save for quips and disagreements regarding story.

Did you miss them or are you challenging yourself without it?

[spoiler=Gameplay spoilers]There is a weapon called Spur you can get around the end of the game. If I remember correctly, I think you can get it after the Iron Head boss and you wash up back to the Village. However you need the Polar Star (your very first weapon) to get it; if you traded it with Curly for her Machine Gun or combine it with the Fireball for the Snake at one point in the game, the Spur will be lost. If you have the Polar Star, go back to where you found it and talk to gunsmith who made it. He'll rant about you "borrowing" the gun then gives a heart-felt speech for using his "incomplete" weapon, then he'll upgrade your Polar Star into the Spur. The Spur has a perma-Lv.3 shot from the Polar Star and charged attack that fires a powerful laser beam that tears through most enemies with ease.[/spoiler]

I just beat Kid Chameleon for the first time! owo

(http://i.imgur.com/DreVnEk.jpg?1)

16 unused continues. Only used one, at The Final Marathon, and I could have done better to get there with more lives. When you play a game for 4 hours straight you make small mistakes here and there, but the problem is, in Kid Chameleon even the tiny mistakes will cost you everything.

Knight diamond special saved my ass many times. My best was adding 2 HP... I'd always die somewhere when I was about to add the third extra point. Stupid Crab Cove with the one-block pits. No Pyramids of Peril farming 'cause it's just too tedious.

The route was the easiest that I could think of (aka NO Bloody Swamp). I panicked when I entered the wrong teleport in one of the ice stages, but it just took me to an Elsewhere and back to the normal course. I'm happy with my performance in some of the hairy stages like Ice God's Vengeance and Alien Isle. Unfortunately I'll probably forget all the strategies in a couple months.

I know that lots of players have no trouble getting through Kid Chameleon in a couple attempts, but honestly, this is one of my personal accomplishments in gaming. Very glad I got through it!

Took me about 2:20. Again, it's a pity that the strategies are so brutally technical, because I'd love to run this game every other month. Hell, I beat this yesterday, and today I already choked at some obscure stages.

I'm not really sure how that's something you're currently playing but okay.

I'm currently playing... Sly Cooper 1 HD. Or at least I will be once I get back to it.
Well, I was currently playing the Gameboy Advance SP, and the minuscule "library" of games I have for it (which is just one, MMBN3 Blue).

I have a real charger now though, so I guess I won't have a use for my redneck battery charger for a while. Good to have it around, though.

Been trudging through The Legend of Heroes VI: Trails in the Sky FC

It's been a good 4-6 hours and I'm still on only chapter 1. It's gonna be one of those kinda games then huh. Having a good time regardless. Combat is decent for turn-based (no random encounters!). The characters are pretty great, though I have to wonder why every female NPC, one eccentric bi fellow and even the probably the step-sis protagonist all really want the male lead's dick. I can infer there's something horrendous about his backstory that will likely reveal him to be much less the ideal person everyone shapes him out to be, but they're laying the expectations on a bit much.

Post by: Da Dood on October 07, 2013, 10:54:19 PM
Finished Fatal Frame for the first time. Took me 9 hours.

All things considered, it was pretty good. Not sure I feel motivated to replay this game soon, but if the sequels improve on the combat, I'll check them out. Right now I want to try Limbo and replay Eternal Darkness.

Pros
[spoiler]- Maybe the scariest game I've played? I don't even believe in ghosts, but the whole idea of evil spirits is scary to me, and the execution was top notch here. I hate the developers for throwing random ghosts when I least expected, but it's also freaking genius. I'll never forget the one random spirit that appeared in the rubble room a split second before I touched the save point. And even without the jump scares, I always felt that I was exploring a hostile environment thanks to the atmosphere and creepy setting

- I had way more supplies than I needed at the end. Throughout Night 3, I generally had 3 of each healing plus a mirror. I never wasted a Stone Mirror without knowing where to find another one. Ammo is not a problem either. I probably won't need to conserve and reset as often next time

- NG+ with new powers to buy and ghost list

- I didn't use any guides! The puzzles were interesting and easy to solve, despite reusing the JP codes and the stone arranging too much. The objectives when searching the mansion were very clear and convenient. I liked for example that you spend almost all of Night 3 in the garden/shrine area[/spoiler]

Cons
[spoiler]- 9 hours in, the combat still wasn't enjoyable. I know the ghosts have a pattern, I just don't have any fun figuring them out when they spend 90% of the time invisible/teleporting around. And there are sooo many different types of ghosts... there's just no incentive for me. Landing a Zero Shot is satisfying and all, but I was always annoyed by the constant teleporting, and my timing in general was really poor

- Character moves too slow

- I don't mind the cheesy dialogue and cutscenes, but man, I wish I could play that story in a more recent game with better presentation[/spoiler]

That's because the DSi doesn't stretch the pixels at all. The games look as good as on any DS Phat/lite system.

3DS mutilates the aspect ratio. And reverting the DS games to native resolution is terrible, as it becomes tiny.

240 / 192 = 1.25

There's your problem.  It's a hardware limitation, given the difference in screen resolutions.  That being said, it's mainly "Mega Man Life Bars" that bug me.  The filtering is otherwise not that intrusive.  If you're used to looking at a pixel-perfect DS/Lite/i, then yeah, it's a little jarring.  But for coming back to a game you haven't played in a while, most of the time it's not that bad.

Yeah, kinda stupid if you ask me. But, I can understand the reason behind it.

Funny story, I joined the PS+ "family" once before. And I assumed my subscription would run out by the time the 3 month period ended. But, my subscription RE-NEWED itself, and I was forced to pay for an additional 3 months. That's where they get you.

It wasn't until I accessed my Account Management settings, put in my password and went to a certain sub-section that stated it would renew the subscription after the deadline. They expect everyone to access those specific settings and un-check the renewal box (or whatever it was) in order to automatically cancel the subscription, once the 3 month period ends.

Dick. Move. Sony.

Heh, I'm sure I'm not the only one to think it. I mean, at the Arkham Origins panel at the NYCC, the Batman Beyond skin in the trailer got the most thunderous applause. They could keep the same engine, but they could do so much more. The suit would allow for so many more Bat-Upgrades (Flight, Cloak, etc). Gotham itself would massive and awesome. I don't see any problem with getting Will Friedle to voice Terry again, and you have old Bruce (which I would imagine would be Kevin Conroy since it fits) as your Oracle.

Wind Waker HD impressions while I still can't find Mario 3D World around here...

Everything is faster:

- You can find an optional turbo sail
- Sea related items are always assigned to the d-pad
- Inventory and map are available on the tablet, no need to pause the game constantly
- Text speed is faster
- Some animations, like changing the wind and Grappling Hook, were also tweaked
- Triforce Shard quest is shorter (I'm not there yet though)

So far, those improvements cover pretty much all of my complaints with the original WW.

New stuff:

- Hero mode is a nice addition. I still don't feel that it's necessary to go out and explore the world for extra items like Zelda 1 and LTTP, but I died more than a couple times already, which was impossible in the vanilla release.

- Tingle Bottle is cute. For those who don't know, this item replaces the Tingle Tuner. It allows you to post and receive online messages via "lost" bottles on the shore. You can write, send Pictograph pics, and draw stuff too.

- The graphics are even more breathtaking now. This may be the least necessary HD update for a Zelda game, but the new lighting and shadow work is amazing. I think some of the music was changed too, but maybe it's just me playing with headphones for the first time.

Skywind. Good mod even if it's just in Alpha. The environments are pretty true to the original. I can say this because I'm playing Morrowind too.

Recently finished A Link Between Worlds. This game is fantastic.

I love the renting system. So much freedom having all items right away (I borrowed the entire store in one visit, haha). There are still some barriers on the overworld, like swimming and rocks, but you can explore like 85% of the map as soon as the store opens. You lose rentals when you die, which IMO doesn't make a lot of sense as a punishment because loading your save solves the problem.

Speaking of puzzles, the 3D wall thing is a fun new gimmick. You start looking at the dungeons in a different way. Eventually the first thing you do when you enter a room is check the terrain near walls. Judging height becomes second nature too, it's really cool.

Glad that warp points are available right from the start.

And dude, the music is so beautiful. I think I like this music even better than A Link to the Past's.

I guess the low difficulty is my only minor complaint, because A Link to the Past kicks my ass every time, and that only makes the game more rewarding and strategic. Regardless, the puzzles and combat are very interesting.

Feel kinda bad for admitting it but I'm playing ICO for the first time (sorry if this sounds like a review)

Loving it so far, as someone who appreciates the minimalist story telling of games like Demons and Dark Souls I love how how the world is presented in ICO, every room and object tells a story much like the two Souls games, more is said through imagery than dialogue. The lack of music outside certain parts might annoy some but I think it adds to the ambiance of the game, creepy yet oddly soothing to experience if that makes any sense.

The game play is...yeah it's an early PS2 game re-released or not, I find I'm fighting with the camera way too much and combat just isn't fun. But the escort aspect is oddly...something I'm enjoying it not only adds to the puzzle solving but also the ambiance of the game.

Yeah, it's because the demo starts you off in an area that's a tiny bit into the game. Also the fetch quests in the demo aren't indicative of the quests in the full game, which are more involved with much better rewards.

When I hear "Yummy, I love the taste of evil souls in the morning!" some 10-20 times per level, it gets old real fast. Also jarring to the fairly serious and semi-atmospheric intro they had going for this guy. It's supposed to be Belial and he goes on about his hatred and vengeance on basically everything, then immediately starts talking like a total dork 5 minutes into the first level.

So far the game's hard but it's nothing something that'll make me tear my hair out (I managed to get an A-rank streak going from the beginning) since I'm used to MMZX. Plus I find the difficulty it welcoming having already beaten every game from the X series. I hope I can snag the Official Complete Works for the Zero series. Other than that, almost done wrapping up Oni (the part I'm at is a pain though), half-way through Rusty (a solid Castlevania clone), and making some progress in the original La-Mulana.

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance on Steam. Runs so damn smooth. Though it already did on consoles so it'd be pretty hard for them to [tornado fang] up optimization. The even faster load times and free DLC is real nice though. Now that I'm playing on a screen that isn't 5 feet away I feel significantly better at dodges and parries. Even managed to get a No Damage run on every boss.

Also started some shooter called Hard Reset. Pretty descent and very pretty. I love the sense of scale given off by a large tower and other city buildings always present above you along with streams of hovercars and ships. Game play itself is pretty simple with only two basic guns that can transform into other weapon types, making ammo fairly easy to come by.

Attack of the Friday Monsters!

Apparently, it's only about 3 hours long. Though it's less of a game, and more of something you play when you just want to kick back and relax.

The Ghibli vibes of this cemented my purchase, along with the beautiful hand-drawn backgrounds. I'm a sucker for hand-drawn stuff.

There's also Kingdom Hearts Re:coded. Tell me, how similar is the combat system to BBS? Because I really like it and I wish I wasn't emulating it.

The Osaka Team had a hand in developing the game; the same team responsible for developing BBS. So naturally, the battle system is very similar.

It failed to move the Kingdom Hearts plotline forward. It's just a filler game.

And fans especially hated it, because at the time, Nomura was making all these side titles, and it seemed like he was stalling on making KH3; A game every single fan was waiting on for years (much like Legends 3).

But, if you like the gameplay, whatever. It's just not significant as a KH title, at all.

If you haven't already, check out the NES Strider (heard that this one kinda has non-linear gameplay too) as well as Strider 2 (I've been enjoying this one so far) for the PS1; Strider 2 also includes a port of the original arcade game.

Finished Parasite Eve 2 in 6 hours. This game is pretty cool. Pity that for like 70% of the story it feels like nothing happens, and then suddenly the end game explodes into all these crazy twists and urgent sequences.

I love how "faithful" it is to the classic Resident Evil games. The puzzles were less cryptic than I remembered (only looked up the location of a certain password, everything else made sense enough). Although it must be said that I didn't get the best ending, so yeah.

I played on Replay mode, which explains why it was so easy. To be honest I'm not in a hurry to try the other difficulty modes. The combat is too clunky and annoying for me right now. Overall, PE1 is my favorite, though I wish it had some of the improvements of the sequel.

ToS HD.

First impressions/observations:

-Textures are still muddy SD textures, presumably so they don't look out of place, the same applies to the new costumes.
-Costumes still locked to titles, because [tornado fang] effort lets just make it so you can't play dress-up and still get level up bonuses.
-Still no Voiced skits, but the game lets you switch between English and Japanese whenever you have menu access so I try to switch it to Japanese for skits but keep it in English at all other points.
-Framerate is locked at 30fps, this isn't a big deal for the field since that's how it always was but in areas and battles its very noticable.
-Music seems quiet at times, but that could've been because I was playing on a 5.1 system.

Apparently the general consensus is they really didn't care enough to make a really good HD remaster, just a somewhat okay one.

The collector's edition goodies are [tornado fang]ing great though. I love the inclusion of the complete soundtrack for both games.

I'm trying the LoS 2 Demo on Steam and I'm surprised how good the game looks on my laptop. I've only played a little bit with the keyboard, but the combat system is much improve from what I can see. You can swap weaons mid-combo, and Jump+Attack does a rising attack. I don't know if Jest Defends/Parry's are possible with "unblockable" attacks yet. I kinda like the Mouse control, but I'm using the keyboard keys for now, but I'll just end up using one of my gamepads anyway. Print Screen doesn't seem to work for screenshots. I might buy this eventually, but it seems way to foreign for me to buy it for the IP or the Gameplay. At best, it's on par with or improves on Curse of Darkness.

My uncle has been working himself dry around the house doing chores he wasn't assigned to do. So, I gave him my Gameboy and the copy of Sapphire my friend lent me and told him he was not allowed to do any extraneous chores until he could bring me back the cart with a save in which he has beaten the Elite Four.

Being less of a gamer than the rest of us (but still interested in gaming, just not as experienced as the household was), his growth was surprising. He's definitely doing better than TPP, beating Roxanne in a little under a few hours. Still having a bit of trouble remembering where everything is, but he's got a decent team together already.

That's besides the point, though, I just wanted to explain my motives behind getting inspired to pick up a Pokemon game again, so I got Emerald on my phone. So there's that.

Nostalgia trip on the PS1: X-Men vs. Street Fighter.

I was all over this game back in the day, but the PS1 port sucks. Due to hardware limitations, this is not a tag-team fighter like the arcade classic. You do pick a second character, but they're used only for assists and specials. And the load times are horrible in this version.

Anyway, the full game is one of my favorite Capcom VS crossovers, maybe because it's not as complicated as the more recent ones. I was pretty decent with Rogue, and it wasn't too difficult to pick a second Street Fighter character since they have the same moves as in SF2 and Alpha.

I also prefer this game's roster over the first sequel. They added Sakura and freaking Dan to MSHvsSF, which is baffling to me because it means there are 5 Ryu-like characters out of 9 Street Fighter members.

Last night I beat arcade mode with Rogue and Akuma. The AI difficulty is surprisingly tame for a Capcom fighter. They rarely block specials and they often let their hyper bar just sit there at Lv3. Took me a while to figure out how to beat Apocalypse, but he's no big deal either.

Dark Souls II, very much enjoying it the changes are nearly all welcome. That being said, the fact that mobs won't re spawn after 11-15 kills is BS. It'll make grinding for armor parts/weapons/titanite shards very difficult. Hopefully that will get patched out soon.

Otherwise Dark Souls II is an amazing game thus far, fixes all my issues with the first two games.

Still need to take out three optional bosses on new game+ even if they are harder I'll be at a better level.

-Royal Rat Authority in the Doors of Pharos area; might have to become a ratbro so I can avoid the reverse invasions.

-The Dark Lurker; I ran low on human effigies in my original run so I'll deal with this and finish the pilgrims covenant stuff at the same time. He's a tough boss though; has a similar gimmick to the four kings of new londo from Dark Souls and if you fail you need to spend another effigy and travel through the abyss again fighting black phantom cameos from the original game that are quite dangerous before you get another shot at Dark Lurker.

[spoiler]-King Vendrick, for every giant soul you get you'll decrease his defense I'm told 5 giant souls is the minimum you'll want as he can basically one shot the PC with his attacks even if they are easy to avoid. [/spoiler]

Ancient Dragon-Tried to fight him got owned pretty quickly; I'll need to level my strength so I can use that great shield that 100% blocks fire attacks. I'm told he's basically the game's super boss like Kalameet was in the original.

I did, but for all I care that was the end anyway, the controls were so [tornado fang]ing terrible that half the time it wouldn't register button commands. I'm not sure if that was a problem with the original release or not but it was an unwelcome surprise to have such stiff controls.

Wii release was fine as long as you avoided using Up for a special, since that makes you jump. Also, were you using Manual mode?

PS: I suggest you play Mystic Quest. It's a bit more on your level.

Back to Symphonia HD despite beating it. I need more grade and just inheriting titles and stuff isn't enough for me.

One million Casino Chips get. I got super [tornado fang]ing lucky on my last trip to the casino, started at about 400,000 and managed to get at least 4 or 5 777's and finally a lucky 3 BAR in one spin.

Now only thing to do there is buy Rare Pellets for the Figurine book to get Genis' title. Which would basically leave his 'I Hate Gels!' and costume titles left.

Only Kratos has the Coliseum to do but that'll have to wait till next playthrough for obvious reasons.
Abyssion is beaten, had to cheese it with the Toss Hammer because holy [tornado fang] he's apparently way harder than he used to be.
Sheena's Treasure Hunter title will have to wait as it seems I missed 3% of the chests and I can't [tornado fang]ing find them anywhere so I'm betting they're gone forever.
Only Raine and Sheena have their cooking titles, I'm going to try and get Zelos' as well so I can get Kratos next game with no worries.
Basically Niflheim is all that remains in terms of Sidequests, well, that and getting Regal's and Presea's best weapons.

Well, I kind of like it. Repetitive? maybe, but it's not exactly trying to be innovative. It's just a mindless brawler. Toss legions of enemies at you and let you have at em. Move on to the next area, rinse and repeat, with the occasional "boss" enemy, which later shows up as a regular stage enemy around the next stage.

It's vibrant as [tornado fang], and looks real nice. I like how Ryu Hayabusa is technically the antagonist in this. He [tornado fang]'d up Yaiba's [parasitic bomb] in the intro,  and Yaiba wants to track him down to kill him. So it's not like a reboot or anything, just a spinoff with an edgier character.

It controls pretty well, there's nothing too intrusive gameplaywise. The biggest point of contention though, is the camera. it's real bad. It is fixed, and way too zoomed in. MGR's camera was better. And it was pretty bad itself.

Yeah, no. The Wii version of DotNW had tight and responsive controls.
And you NEVER use Manual on a Tales game that has Free-Running.
There's a reason DotNW is one of my favorite titles in the series and that's the gameplay. The PS3 version's probably a bad port.

And you NEVER use Manual on a Tales game that has Free-Running.

Well maybe I don't like running towards my enemy every [tornado fang]ing time I hit the attack button, seriously that's why I can't stand Semi-Auto, and don't say you do Semi-Auto because Free Run makes you take more damage if you get hit and Semi-Auto will guard automatically, that wasn't my problem, my problem was Emil not [tornado fang]ing responding when I hit buttons and getting his stupid ass staggered and dazed.
What if I want to play as a Spellcaster? Not that I really want to but they do this stupid [parasitic bomb] where they get all cozy to an enemy before casting if you play on Semi-Auto.

Maybe I want to use Havoc Strike and not have it do nothing, I had it set to UP+O but it didn't do ANYTHING, no jumping, no attack, nothing.

And again, coming right off of Symphonia where the controls worked and I primarily used the D-Pad in fights so I didn't do a Demonic Thrust (Side+O) when I meant to do a Raining Tiger Blade (Down+O), in DotNW they didn't bother to put in options to change controls or to use the D-Pad. Free Run in that sucked anyway, too slow and why do I need to guard to use it? In fact really I never use Free Run unless I'm cornered and I never got cornered, just staggered to [parasitic bomb].

Point is, it frustrated me and turned me off from it.

... I can't stand anything but Manual in Tales games (for the most part). I like having control over every aspect of the fight, and running towards an enemy and using the attack before/after I would is certainly not controlled enough for my liking.

I've had the original Wii version since the year it came out. Never played it once because I was waiting till I finished Symphonia, which I lost interest in on the Gamecube because I started moving really slowly because my controller had gone to [parasitic bomb] (it was also a borrowed game so I didn't have time to play it often.) So when the HD set of both games came out I just resigned to not bothering with the Wii version of DotNW and playing the PS3 version instead when it came out.

Abyss 3DS suffers some really [tornado fang]ing massive frame drop on the overworld in some places, but aside from that it's a satisfactory port. Looks better than the PS2 version and loading times are shorter. Looks like ass in 3D though but it's tolerable.

It's still a good game and it handles beautifully, don't get me wrong. It just suffers from a bit of framerate issues and the 3D isn't done well at all (lots of ghost images and depth issues), so I suggest keeping it in 2D.

Hahaha. XD Honestly I did wanted to play Tyrian for some time but could never get the hang of using DOSBox (when it was v0.73). After getting some helpful tricks to make it much more easier to use with v0.74, I've been playing some other DOS games too like Jazz Jackrabbit and Doom. I really to try to see if I can re-create some fighter ships of other shoot 'em up games with the Ship Editor (the Kamui from Kamui, Phoenix Mk-II from RefleX, and the RVA-818-X-LAY from RayForce/Layer Section) but it looks like a pain to use.

I didn't find 2 to be as bad as people make it out to be. The gameplay feels better than in the first, for one. The story is where most people don't seem to like it, but I was alright with it.
I can agree with that. BioShock 2 does feel more like an expansion pack to the first game, and the story felt shoehorned to me compared to the original, but I don't find it as bad as others say. One thing I will say that it really needed New Game+ like the first one did through DLC; there are tonics and plasmids late-to-end game that I wish I could carry into a new game to experiment and have fun with (plus I want to go back with overpowered weapons and destroy stuff) but alas 2K Marin didn't such a feature.

not at first. But the difficulty curves up pretty quickly and then to a pretty hard level sometimes. But that's mostly the wall climbing sections which thankfully there aren't too many of.I mean it's not difficult in and of itself but the mechanic for it feels a little floaty and awkward at times. Also I didn't like the fact that you had to press up or down to do the roll move which is necessary for like the second half of the game to get anywhere.the biggest difficulty factor I found was if you don't level up enough your stats suck and then the game is really rough. I put most of mine and attack and really didn't help that much so I ended up starting a new game and putting most of it on defense an that made the game a lot more playable. despite all that that I have just said I didn't find a game to be overly difficult and it never really felt like cheap or artificial difficulty. It was mostly a legitimate challenge and even though the game is very short I felt completely satisfied when I finally beat it. :-)

NES Remix 2.

Championship mode is annoying, since its based off the NWC scoring system and Dr. Mario's scoring is different from Tetris, because 4 in a row with no viruses doesn't give points and the game feels it needs to toss tons of worthless garbage my way instead of things I could actually use or things that I need.

Thanks for that third Red Pill in a row, Mario! Too bad there's no [tornado fang]ing Red viruses left!

Beat Crimson Shroud. Though apparently, beating it once doesn't give you the true ending. You have to play New Game+ for the true ending (at least I assume it's the true ending, because one person claimed that you get the real ending once you play NG+)

The game was really fun despite the easy final boss. But I don't really feel like doing NG+ at the moment, so I'm resuming The Last of Us, which continues to amaze me with its sexy visuals. Goddamn.

Metroid Prime 2 (Wii/Trilogy version).

Never did beat the game; left off AGES ago just before the Gravity Boost and am finding it very frustrating to navigate a world I barely remember.  Still, I want to beat it legitimately before I go and steal some "unlock everything" save file to compensate for the fact that I have no Friend Credits.

Yeah, the True Ending is accesible in NG+, although you have to get specific items around...chapter 3 and on, you get access to new areas that'll well...give way to the True Ending.  It's also ALOT harder and you may have to grind a little to upgrade weapons and gear (as well, swap around gear, for them stats against specific enemies) and vice versa.  I definitely reccomend taking your time with it.  Especially on the Witch Kings @_@. (there's a room where you fight 10 of them, thankfully the dragon in the room helps you take some breathers, but it's a LOOONG battle.).

Personally, I prefer the normal ending, as it keeps that 'dark mood' intact.

For some reason the Fox is pissed off today and charging extra for SP recharges, and that [tornado fang]er Shadow Mitsuo keeps dropping Megidola on me because Teddie is weak to electricity and that gives the [tornado fang]er an extra turn despite already having two.

I hate this stupid boss. I can't get off a good Buff pattern to [twin slasher] it with Agidyne from Black Frost because the [dark hold] keeps using Dekaja or hitting with strong attacks which keep me in a healing loop.

Picking up Unreal Tournament 2004 again because I need something properly balanced as a reprieve from TF2. It's a shame most people only ever play the larger scale objective driven modes like Onslaught because this is still one of my favourite deathmatch games ever. Flak Cannon, how I've missed you so ♥. CTF can [tornado fang] off in the campaign though. Such a horrible stalemate game mode.

Also on the final dungeon in Trails in the Sky. This will probably the first turn-based RPG I've finished. Though I'm also at the point that I will very decidedly have to -gasp- grind. I somehow managed to get this far with next to none and just planned out battles well enough to slide by via elemental weaknesses. Buuut it's got the old JRPG 3 for final boss forms so this will be quite an endurance run for me.

Phi I have never misinterpreted what you've said, rather I'm just informing how you come off to certain people. May I suggest that you try to get a little less aggravated when people call you out on things?

The reason I never answered question about The Last of Us was because you asked me to keep spoiler-free when I had specifically said the thing I found boring was the story so naturally I couldn't really say much without going into detail. Though I suppose I can go into a little more detail on that. First of all I've never understood why people make such a big deal about the visuals, sure they look alright from a graphics stand point but who wants to look at bunch of ruined cities and a whole lot dark caves and such? I sure don't, there's nothing remotely interesting about that.

The gameplay is alright but its nothing special and more than that its just disappointing compared to the footage they showed off before release, in fact the AI is just so laughably bad in comparison to what they had previously shown off its quite sad to see. The game is  basically Uncharted if you took way all the good parts and left yourself with the mediocre, just a generic stealth/cover shooter that might have been considered impressive half a decade ago.

Ultimately the real problem I have is that at the end of the day the gameplay is used as a gating system for story progression rather than the gameplay being the defining experience, thought I might have been okay with that if the plot wasn't just a clichéd, rather dull and rather repetitive zombie movie with stellar production values. Which leaves us with generic gameplay in between segments of boring story.

It is by no means a bad game but its not nearly good enough to be worthy of the sheer amount of praise it gets.

That's the same...

*sigh* Whatever, we can continue this in Skype.

The reason I never answered question about The Last of Us was because you asked me to keep spoiler-free when I had specifically said the thing I found boring was the story so naturally I couldn't really say much without going into detail.

Fair enough.

First of all I've never understood why people make such a big deal about the visuals, sure they look alright from a graphics stand point but who wants to look at bunch of ruined cities and a whole lot dark caves and such? I sure don't, there's nothing remotely interesting about that.

For one thing, on a technical level, The Last of Us pushes the PS3 system. In fact, my PS3, along with many others, have froze on a few occasions because it had difficulties rendering certain assets.

I can understand how you think the visuals are just "alright", especially when taking into account that PC can push out better looking games with ease, and the resolution only reaches 720p. However, for PS3 capabilities, it is quite a feat. You may not be interested in technical specs and whatnot, but that's how it is.

As for the ruined cities and all that, I actually find it very interesting and eerily beautiful. Nature has taken its course, and the greenery has "devoured" the earth, in a sense. Not to mention there's a few photo-realistic sequences here and there, which I didn't expect from PS3.

If you don't feel the same, that's fine, of course. Like I stated, everyone's entitled to their opinions.

For this game, I like to think of "There's beauty in simple things".

The gameplay is alright but its nothing special and more than that its just disappointing compared to the footage they showed off before release, in fact the AI is just so laughably bad in comparison to what they had previously shown off its quite sad to see. The game is  basically Uncharted if you took way all the good parts and left yourself with the mediocre, just a generic stealth/cover shooter that might have been considered impressive half a decade ago.

I fully agree on the gameplay. It is nothing special.

But... was the AI really that different from what they showed before release? It showed enemies looking for the source of sounds, demonstrating what you can do with bottles/bricks, and groups splitting up to look for you. All of that remained intact in the final product.

As a whole, I will agree that the AI is pretty retarded. But, honestly, I didn't really mind so much. I mean, I can't really think of ANY game that had very intelligent AI. AI has always been a constant issue in games for as long as I can remember. Personally, I don't mind those faults, as the game is still somewhat challenging, thanks to the limited ammo and supplies seen in games like the classic Resident Evil. You do really feel like you have to make every shot count; you can't just go guns blazing.

As for the stealth, I mean... what more could you want? I'd actually say the stealth is much better than it ever was in the Uncharted franchise. The way I see it, you can't really improve the stealth mechanics further than what modern shooters have already been doing. If it ain't broke, why fix it?

This isn't like the Batman Arkham games where you can sneak around and take out enemies in various unique ways. You have very limited resources and there is far less hiding places, as everything is falling apart. The stealth/cover shooting works pretty well with the setting of this game.

Ultimately the real problem I have is that at the end of the day the gameplay is used as a gating system for story progression rather than the gameplay being the defining experience, thought I might have been okay with that if the plot wasn't just a clichéd, rather dull and rather repetitive zombie movie with stellar production values. Which leaves us with generic gameplay in between segments of boring story.

I can't comment on the overall story quite yet, though I believe I'm nearing the ending. But so far, I have to say I really like the plot. It's not amazing by any means, but it's certainly not mediocre. I'm not sure what was repetitive about it. I mean, it's a story about surviving an infected outbreak so it's obvious there's going to be reoccurring dangers to circumvent. That's the underlying foundation for the story progression.

I will say this: I feel the main problem with this is that Naughty Dog marketed the gameplay as innovative and "defining", like you stated. I agree with you, the gameplay mechanics are nothing amazing. But if I forget that the gameplay was intended to be a main selling point, The Last of Us is quite enjoyable; I think it's a very solid game.

Do I agree with all the 10/10 review scores it gets? Definitely not. However, I do think it deserves a lot of the praise it gets. Not ALL of it, but I can tell ND really put in a lot of effort into this, despite its glaring shortcomings.

Also, I find the writing and expressions impeccable, much like the Uncharted series. Just the little things like Ellie's humming and mannerisms, to her naive and headstrong personality puts a smile on my face. I also quite enjoy Joel and Ellie's relationship, even if it's VERY much like DeWitt and Elizabeth's relationship (from BioShock Infinite). I suppose the relationship is a cliche within itself, but both were done very well.

It is by no means a bad game but its not nearly good enough to be worthy of the sheer amount of praise it gets.

See, was that so hard? You gave me your opinions, and I responded with some of my own. No one is getting "defensive".

It's really fun and has surprisingly good graphics for what It is.
Add in the fact it's free and that just makes It better.
The downside is you can only have 5 lives at once and unless people send you lives It takes half an hour for one life to respawn.

Oh absolutely, Infinite's gameplay was horridly tedious. I got my hopes up from that extended demo they showed before release. However, I loved the story and listening to the Voxophone recordings.

I really liked the ending, too, though I know a lot of people don't because they found it "confusing" or something. I didn't find it too complex; at least not after watching it multiple times over.

I had you, specifically, go into detail because I know you often bash things you never tried for yourself. You said it yourself that you're not serious about many things you say, so saying "The Last of Us was boring" could've very well been a random statement pulled out of your ass.

You can do it! and yes, buffs and debuffs are VERY helpful.  Sometimes when I come across some of the spell scrolls, I would 'almost' engrave them onto some of the gear I have, especially if they have blank spots for insertion of new spells hoho~

Yeah, they were real sneaky about it and only gave them away to people who use Club Nintendo, registered Animal Crossing, and are in Platinum status for the year.

And I don't even think they gave it to everybody who met that criteria since the email states "select group".

Real short demo, only allowed to bring in/create three miis, solve about 8 problems, stuff like that. Game data transfers over to the full game though, and you get a special item (Two Panda suits, apparently color is random.) for solving the max amount of problems and having 3 miis.

Unfortunately they don't really convey the wackiness of the game very well in the demo, just the friends and the synthesized voice stuff. I like how when you input a name, the game will speak it so you can hear how it sounds, and then change how its pronounced to get the sound right.

Replaying Wild Arms 2, the sequel always felt out of place in the original three games; maybe it was the lack of a supernatural threat until the later half of the story and the Idiot translation (seriously this is one of the worst translated RPGs I've ever played, it's almost so bad it's good). It's still a fun game game though; and DAT Knight Blazer though. Shame Sony abandoned the franchise Wild Arms 3 is still one of my favorite RPGs of all time although 4 and 5 were pretty mediocre though so I guess that explains dropping the franchise.

Other wise I'm playing co-op with a friend through Tales of Xilla; it's fun but I admit the franchise feels really stale now;  I'm not to far in the story but the characters are just...okay. It's no Symphonia/Abyss/or Vesperia that's for sure. I was kinda interested that there was a female main character choice but was quite disappointed when she turned out to be a robot in personality, guess that changes later? =/

Still gotta finish Child of Light, really enjoying it overall but I there's a few other games I want to replay before that. Maybe Threads of Fate or SMT Nocturne next?

I played some Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 Team Missions with a buddy online. We only had time to finish one mission, which was stupid hard. The next one doesn't seem all that tough to be honest, we got to the final wave a couple times out of 5 attempts or so.

It's fun to play co-op and all, but the more I play this game, the more I hate how unresponsive dodging is compared to NGS1. Or any action game, really. Freaking Hayashi.

That said, if anyone wants to play this game co-op, I'm interested. I'd like to finish all the missions in one Ninja Gaiden game at least.

I also beat the original Castlevania again recently. Cool game, but 3 just mops the floor with it.

Beat The Last of Us.

Personally, I loved it. More specifically, I really liked it when I finished it, but after reading other people's perceptions and point-of-views on the ending, I came to appreciate the game that much more. Naughty Dog is truly an exceptional company.

The story, as a whole, wasn't too out there and it didn't need to be. For the kind of theme it was going for, it works perfectly. It's emotionally invested and personal, and in some ways, focused more on the character development, rather than the world around them.

The gameplay needs a lot of fine tuning, and if a sequel is developed, I hope they learn from this game's design flaws. It's still fun to play, don't get me wrong, but it could use improving. The writing and story, though? Color me impressed.

Next up, Left Behind DLC.

Finally bought MMI-V (GB) on the 3DS Virtual Console, and played some of them after a long time. My notes and impressions:

MMI (clear time 1:29)

- Ice is beautiful in this game. Never noticed before. You can freeze enemies in a vulnerable frame of their animation, pause the game, and switch to another weapon to finish them off. This isn't a new strategy in the series, but in DWR, where you're in cramped spaces and enemies deal insane damage, it's a godsend. Works amazingly well vs. Sniper Joe and the... big stompy guy.

- Got tricked by the disappearing blocks in the castle, but I managed to just barely use Carry as I was about to hit the spikes. Felt awesome.

- At only 6 levels, this game is shorter and actually more expensive than MMII, III and IV on the shop. WTF. It's too bad mostly 'cause you don't get to see the MM2 weapons much. At least the sequels made an effort to fix this.


MMII (1:05)

- Easiest Mega Man ever? The level design is super dull, there aren't any unique stage gimmicks, and you practically have to dodge lives and E-Tanks that are just sitting there on the way. Maybe people complained about MMI being difficult... and maybe then people complained about MMII being a piece of cake too, 'cause III was pretty brutal. Hah.

- The music compositions are okay, but the sound in this game is really bad. Reminds me of Harmony of Dissonance.

- Feels like I'm playing a ROM hack when I use slide and Rush in MM2 levels. It's an interesting mix of both games, considering how many new things were introduced in 3. Too bad that the level design doesn't do much with this opportunity.

MMIII (1:40)

- Yeah, definitely an improvement in difficulty. I really like the challenge of this game, despite some unfair bits (nothing we haven't seen before in the series). E-Tanks are rare, and so are lives. Charge shot makes bosses a joke, but they sure compensate with those brutal levels. The MM4-based levels drag on and on.

- Charge shot also makes regular enemies simple, which is a pity 'cause I love the strategy of using boss weapons and conserving ammo. Maybe I'll do a No Buster run, although the weapon selection here isn't the greatest.

- Punk's weapon is so good in MM10. Didn't do much for me in this one. I only use it to kill the final boss, as MMGB protocol demands.


Probably won't have time to play IV and V today, but I'll do them tomorrow for sure. They're the best ones, too!
Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread
Post by: Da Dood on May 25, 2014, 09:12:03 PM
MMIV (2:26)

- Takes a while to get used to the buster knockback. Not sure I like it... I get tricked constantly by the new timing, 'cause you can't jump immediately after a shot, and (of course) sometimes the recoil will push you off a ledge.

- Like III, the second set of Robot Master levels are very long and difficult. I loved the challenge. They gave some familiar gimmicks a new twist, like those Napalm Man drills being used for platforming now. The final level is even longer.

- I don't understand the W I L Y items. I collected all 4 and a big gate opened after the second set of RMs. Dunno if they were mandatory or if I just opened a shortcut. Either way, they were pretty easy to find.

- Love the ending showing little demonstrations of boss weaknesses and how to dodge their attacks. Too bad they didn't show the lesser enemies, though.


MMV (2:12)

- Oh man, yes. This game. Easily on par with the NES classics. All new content, great additions, decent length, excellent music. And it wasn't as lag-tastic as I remembered, so yay. I should play this more often.

- Mega Arm doesn't seem like the kind of buster replacement I'd enjoy, but it's very well implemented, especially its upgrades. You don't need anything else, it's like having Arrow Shot in MM8. As a result, even though the weapons are pretty creative, they're useful more so as tools. And unfortunately, the 4 crystals aren't nearly as valuable as they should be... 2x ammo for 2 levels, with an overpowered buster and S-Tanks/W-Tanks already available, isn't the greatest deal. Good incentive for No Buster, though.

- Mercury's weapon saved my ass more than a few times. There was one time when I was at the end of the level, 0 lives, and I entered a room with a missile enemy. The enemy kept firing missiles, and I kept shooting the missiles down for 2 HP until my health was full. Made it through without using a continue there.

And that's it, all 5 games. I might grab X-treme 1 and 2 later this week, never played those.

A very generous, very lovely friend of mine gifted me Bastion, Broforce, RPGVXA, and a Greenlight pass.

Bastion is an amazing game, sad that it doesn't support Directinput because who really says the X360 controller is well-designed at all like come on. I especially liked the area where Kid slips into a coma when trying to get a shard amidst toxic gas, and a pseudo-Rucks starts narrating mean stuff.

Broforce was great for a good ten minutes, but it really lacks luster when I'm the only one on my friends list with the game, aside from that friend who is rarely online to begin with.

So far I've been messing around with Doom 95, Doom: Custom PlayStation Edition TC while I wait for Doom 64 EX's next update, Doom on the original Xbox when can't play it on my brother's computer, and finally finished all of the Mega Man Zero games. Then I finally got around to playing some arcade games on MAME (mainly to play RayForce since SSF is giving me problems) and play some games I wanted to try out (my brother and I had a lot of fun with Armored Warriors). I also started playing PowerSlave (PS1) since I heard that the console ports was better than the PC version and it was one of the earliest Metroidvania FPSes out there long before Metroid Prime came into the scene. Speaking of Metroid Prime...

Still, I want to beat it legitimately before I go and steal some "unlock everything" save file to compensate for the fact that I have no Friend Credits.
I think I have some but it has been ages since I checked all of the tokens that I have on my save.

Beat the Left Behind DLC (from The Last of Us).

I liked it. However, for $15, it was way too short. I'd understand that amount of content for $10, but nothing more. Granted, there are multiple difficulty levels, but I was left unsatisfied.

The gameplay was decent, and I loved Ellie and Riley's chemistry. I wanted to see so much more of their relationship, but as soon as I was getting comfortable with them, the credits rolled. Frankly, the ending was sloppy. I feel we, as the players, deserve a proper conclusion.

If anything, I'd like to see a follow-up to Left Behind, although it's highly unlikely.

Dark Souls 2 loses some of it's fun factor when you get invaded 3 times at Harvest valley by the same invader all within the timespan of about 15-20 minutes. Sure, I have life protection rings, but it's just one of those things. you play with the constant fear that you will be invaded at the worst possible time. And considering 95% of the brotherhood of Blood is full of shitters that abuse the op weapons and or go full Havel's, it makes the game lose something. NG+? nah. that's not that hard part. The hard part is being constantly invaded. Gee, I sure wish my Blue Sentinel Ring summoned me nearly that often.

I assume you don't want to burn effigies at bonfires? That reduces invasions greatly for that area.

Finished Mega Man Xtreme for the first time... and second... and third.

At first I was very disappointed, but suddenly the game pulled a Symphony of the Night and added completely new levels after I beat the final boss. That was a nice surprise. It's still not without its share of flaws, though.

Controls are not perfect, especially dashing, but for a system with 2 buttons, it's not like there's a better choice. The foot upgrade makes you climb walls as if you're holding dash in the console games, which isn't always what I want. Reminds me of X7, and that can never be good.

I wish the level design was unique... that's something the classic GB games did very well, for the amount of recycling in there. Some items are switched around, but the stage layout in Xtreme is exactly the same as in the SNES. I dunno, I feel this would be a more exciting Mega Man game if I didn't know exactly where I'm going.

Still, it's quite fun. For what essentially is a de-make of MMX, they did a great job (love how fast the gameplay feels). I was going to complain that you can't skip cutscenes, but then I played Xtreme mode. Great stuff.

I never used the Zero powers, though. Wonder if they're any good.

You weren't kidding. Just finished Extreme mode/real ending. Great game.

Man, X is so powerful with all the parts. You lose two parts if you complete the armor, so during Extreme mode I just ignored the head enhancement and was able to equip 4 parts. Regular buster shot deals 4 damage to any boss. Amazing. To be honest, I didn't like Zero as much here. He has (wait for it) zero range, can't double jump, and his powers are, for the most part, the same ones you unlock in Xtreme 1.

I do appreciate tag team and how you have to choose who gets each boss weapon, although I ended up using Zero only when I was low on health/boss recon.

The level design is actually different this time around, though they still borrow entire sections of previous games. It's funny when the stage is closer to a Maverick who's not even represented in the game, like Neon Tiger's level pretty much ripping off Sting Chameleon. Some brutal platforming in later levels, too.

I'll definitely revisit both games at some point.

That is just how Soul games are though, any advantages often come with an equal disadvantage. Co-Op is a huge advantage but you run the risk of being invaded as a result; honestly from my NG+ experiences Iron Keep is waaaaay worse than harvest valley for invasions.

Harvest Valley is pretty easy even on NG+ and onward, the area is pretty short and strait forward and the Covetous Demon has a pretty simple attack pattern with some clear tells (if you shot out the pots hanging from the ceiling the hollows that drop will keep it busy for a few moments), the battle is even easier with magic. Banefull queen is also pretty easy; once you drain the poison she's really easy to dodge, you could summon the NPC phantom (the jester) and let him solo the boss (not sure if burning human effigies effects NPC summons).

That being said Smelter Demon isn't getting any easier; might want to summon human help for that boss fight; serious that boss can go die.  :'(

More annoying isn't just invasions, but the fact that you can be invaded regardless of being Hollow or Human. in DS1 you could only be invaded while Human. There was a reason for the way DS1 did it. You could avoid invasions by being Hollow, but miss out on Co op. in DS2 you can stay hollow and miss out on co op, AND still get invaded.

on the bright side i guess, there are only cracked eye orbs, and no regular full ones. So if you manage to hide, you can just hide till the timer runs out.

I just wish invaders weren't little bitches. It wouldn't be so bad if the invaders didn't hide behind enemies all the time (or behind other invaders, when it comes to the belltower areas). Almost every time though, instead of running towards me, they run away. Cowards, the whole lot of them.

Oh, playing Tomodachi Life. After getting a certain amount of islanders you can play a game where you ask a bunch of them questions, its fill in the blank but the game will voice it out.
Apparently "Self Pleasure" is totally alright, but "Dirty Magazines" is not? I'm sorry, my Mii's are all around 20 years old. I'm playing the game offline, who is going to be offended?

That's a magically good question.

I personally liked the traversal puzzles back in the day, but everything else was pretty meh (particularly the combat). Not sure how much this would hold up for me nowadays.

That's exactly how I felt, though in regards to combat it wasn't so much "meh" and more like "I'm only finishing this pile of [parasitic bomb] because vaulting is broken".

At least the AssCreed games gave some proper [tornado fang]ing invincibility frames for more than just the finishers. And as cheap and easy as it was, using the Chain Kill function in Brotherhood and pulling off a quick counter in between was actually fun. This game though, [tornado fang]ing monotonous.

Still likely to continue on through the rest of the games when I have time and data usage available. I'm an idiot and want my $15 worth I paid for the whole series.

You didn't know that you had to use the Gust Jar either? That stumped me for ages so I had to look it up.

Anyway, THOUGHT I beat the True Arena on Kirby Triple Deluxe.

And then the final boss went into a different form and spattered a bunch of goo everywhere and, being that I only had a sliver of health, died.

[tornado fang] you game. And not just because of that last minute misdirection, I would've literally had an easier time if they had put Soul of Sectionia BEFORE Dark Meta Knight's "Chase your Ability Star while I guard against all of your attacks!" game. DMK is much harder than Soul. In fact, It would've been better if the game didn't have such a hard-on for WOO 3D ATTACKS where I can't beat up the boss because they're [tornado fang]ing around in the goddamn background. I don't think Return to Dreamland had that happen nearly as often, and I can't think of very many other Kirby games that do it. Still, hate it. And I hate it more when the stupid Minibosses are doing it too. It wastes the time I could be using killing them in three or four hammer flips.

One last thing, since this is an Energy Bar Kirby Game and not a Health Point Kirby Game, why does it seem like I lose my Ability star for EVERY SINGLE [tornado fang]ing POINT OF DAMAGE, seriously that's not fun. Kirby's supposed to be fun, not frustrating. Maybe I just want to wreck things with my almighty hammer and not have to chase the damn thing down because a ball fell out of Kracko while I was charging Hammer Flip.

Do tabletop RPGs count?  Ringman and I began an Edge of the Empire campaign, using the beta release of the core rulebook that I got for free from CVI.  He's a duty-bound Trandoshan bodyguard named Dooshk, and I'm an obsessive Gand slicer named Funger.  We're both motivated by a former nemesis.  We took a smuggling job for a Hutt and things went south pretty quick, and as we're just starting out... we're not very good at what we do.  In fact, we're barely competent half the time.  Though, that's mostly due to our horrible luck with dice.

Dice hate us.  Nothing but failures for us.  And as this is a dice pool system that use various types of dice to cancel out other dice, the rare event that we manage to get a Natural 20, the other negative dice cancel  it out, so we fail spectacularly.

After having one of his dice fail over and over again, Ringman picked it up, told it he hated it, and threw it into his pile and got out a different die.

The system uses weird symbol dice, and rather than keep referring to the conversion table, we sacrificed a few dice to put the appropriate symbol stickers on.  I did a lousy job with two of them and now we have two shitty spin-down dice.

E.Y.E. - Divine Cybermancy

fun [parasitic bomb].

I bought it a while ago, but figured i'd bring it up since it's on sale for 2 bucks.

i mean, it's normally 9, so not like its expensive to start, but it's real good for the price.

made with Source, so it feels like Half Life 2, though functionally nothing like it. FPS RPG. Heavily cyberpunk. The oldschool stuff though. Think Blade Runner or the original Ghost in the Shell film. Little bit of Warhammer too i guess.

it's also french. So you know it'll be pretty crazy.

Starting up System Shock 2 again finally.

This game makes Deus Ex look like clunky [parasitic bomb]. Though maybe that's just bitterness from my friend overhyping DE several thousand times. I also have a huge favourable bias to anything Looking Glass Studios made.

This actually marks the first time I've ever bothered finishing a turn-based RPG and it was well worth it. The plot and ending alone could have made the whole game for me. Pretty devastating and definitely has me hooked for Second Chapter's english release. The game play is also solid though.

Won't lie the Propeller Knight and the Tower stages kinda tried my patience a little/lot; I have no idea how the game expects you to beat the whole thing without dying for that one feat.  o-O

My only real critique is the over reliance on instant deaths near the end of the game, it spoiled what were otherwise great looking last levels. Oh those Propeller enemies that push you? They were the bane of my existence.  >_<

I'm playing Dynasty Warriors: Gundam Reborn too and it is hella fun.

The maps are back to being one big field which is good but they are noticeably smaller than 2's which is slightly disappointing but still better than 3's pathetic excuse for maps.

They've expanded on the SEED's cast a little too much for my tastes, having to see those stupid druggies every second mission gets tiring quite quickly but I suppose it does provide some variety from seeing the Black Tri-Stars or Yazan's team like in the older games. Cagalli being playable is nice though, I didn't even know I wanted that.

SEED Destiny's story was terrible too, if you're going to make me go through that [parasitic bomb] the least you could do is let me play as, you know, Shinn? Not [tornado fang]ing Kira and Athrun. I want to defeat them not be them. As a whole though the Official Mode is pretty underwhelming.

This is one game you do NOT want to spoil. Don't worry about needing walkthroughs or anything as the game's mostly straightforward. The game's also about 5-10 hours and I guarantee you won't get bored of it.

Last night I did a speedy run through Ninja Gaiden NES (21 minutes, couple deaths but no game overs), and also finished Mega Man 4. No buster playthrough. It's basically auto-pilot in this game after acquiring Dust and Pharaoh Shot. Helps that the arsenal here is one of the best. It's pretty funny to charge the Pharaoh Shot above your head and slide through entire sections unscathed/without spending any ammo.

By the way, I'm thinking about playing through Mega Man Legends again after I'm done with Dark Souls 2 DLC. I've beaten this game once but I don't remember much about it. Any tips for OP equipment to look out for?

So far as weapon upgrades go, make your choice early on between the Machine Buster or the Powered Buster.  I prefer the latter, but both are solid.  Don't bother upgrading any other special weapon until you get the Active Buster (you almost can't miss it; Roll makes it from a single part found in one of the last ruins, after the Flutter is repaired).

Make DAMN SURE you save your game before going on police sub-quests.  There's one that involves disarming two bombs that you only get one shot at; if you succeed then Roll can make you some solid buster parts out of the bombs.

It was pretty good. Unlike Artorias of the Abyss in DkS1, this one had amazing levels but disappointing bosses. In DkS1 it was the other way around.

Got my first Xbox 360 recently. Here's what I've played so far:

Ninja Gaiden 2
Much better than Sigma 2, and also the main reason I got a 360. More enemies, more options, more strategy in general. I'm surprised at how fast enemies die or get delimbed in this compared to Sigma 2. I cleared Path of the Warrior and I'm itching to try Mentor, but I should take a break 'cause I've been playing these games too much lately.

Halo Anniversary
It's okay. I'm not really into these shooters, so I'm not sure if I'll finish that soon. The controls and the shooting feel pretty good, and aim assist/snap aim was practically made for newbies like me. But the design is really tedious and barebones, at least in the first three missions. Wandering aimlessly in empty fields/cliffs is a pain, but I still prefer that over a boring corridor maze... like the first level... >_>

Banjo-Kazooie Sorta HD
Only played a little bit, seems like a great update so far. The controls take some getting used to, 'cause I've played BK and BT countless times on the N64, but anything is better than the N64's slug stick in the long run. I also downloaded Banjo-Tooie. I hope there is less lag in Tooie.

Just finished the Doom II portion of the PlayStation Total Conversion. I liked the darker atmosphere the PSX version of Doom went with and the music adds some to eeriness to the classic Doom games, though some of the cutbacks kinda sucks and I wished the Icon of Sin was added back in the total conversion (the final level in PSX Doom II is just a bunch of Barons of Hell and two Spider Masterminds). I'm not sure if I should continue onto Master Levels of Doom II and Final Doom since Ultra-Violence on the first two were pretty tough on some parts and the two Doom II expansions are even harder the main game. Maybe I'll resume Doom 64 EX...

Also Doom-related: I'm playing Batman Doom (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y3LVrFVxO5s), which surprised me that this was done by the same ACE Team that went on to make Zeno Clash, even moreso that this mod was made with the Doom Engine alone.

Dark Souls 2, second DLC impressions. Finished the whole thing in about 4 hours.

Quality is about the same as the first DLC. The new area is bigger than Sunken City, and very pretty. The enemies are okay. I don't like the constant spamming of a certain enemy type, but at least the ambush situations are super predictable. There were tons of Black Phantoms, dunno if that's an NG+ thing or if they're always there. As for the bosses... well, I liked one of them a LOT. At the very least they all fight solo, which is a plus after the ridiculous gank squad of the first DLC.

Can't say I like the damage I'm doing with my weapons. I can't tell if it's a nerf or if NG++ is that brutal there.

Getting back into doing Trails in the Sky FC on the Steam copy. The prologue is always a drag since it's pretty much the only time you're stuck with just 2 people in the party. Every battle can be a total pain in the ass. Now that I have some prior experience with the magic customization though, I managed to unlock some of the highest tier attacks before the first real boss. I feel rather accomplished. This ought to be a great run. Shame I already managed to miss some quest reward points.

On the side I've been putting Drakengard 3 on and off. I do quite like the game and all, but even after moving the PS3 into my room I still lack motivation to boot it up. Also one of the main characters has a horrendously obnoxious voice which I have no doubt is wholly intended.

Also been trying to get into Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. I've played a few similar games before, but the rather realistic damage output on every single gun and how quick you go down still takes adjusting for me after some thousand hours of TF2 and the like.

Chapter 6 of Master Ninja difficulty in Ninja Gaiden 2.

Like Mentor difficulty before it, the first three chapters are much harder than 4-6 where you can already be OP. I have enough essence to get out of most horrible situations, and I've been abusing geography a lot (you can backtrack a TON in these levels and take the fight someplace safer, or even despawn enemies altogether).

I hope the rest of the game isn't too brutal, but I'm having a great time. It's funny, this game's Master Ninja is definitely harder than Sigma 2's, but it's also more fair. There are more enemies and they're relentless, but at least I don't have to enter a battle worrying about a OHKO grab/projectile from off screen. The damage enemies are doing right now are a natural increase over Mentor, I feel. Sure, IS ninjas are cheap, but I can be even cheaper with my own tools.

Let's do it!

So I was messing in the Wii shop and downloaded Strider and Revenge of Shinobi. Always meant to play these games. I figured, since Sega has no plans of supporting the Wii U VC, I should try them before they get removed (I know RoS is on PSN but I had a spare 800 points to spend).

Strider is... okay. I like the fast attack and how varied the stages are. But this game has some massive hit detection issues. Sometimes the enemy is literally inside the blade animation, but doesn't take damage. This is especially bad vs. the mini floating turrets and the gorilla. The platforming is also hit or miss... I like the mobility, but the character doesn't always grab walls/platforms that he should've. Also, the music is pretty dull, I thought.

I finished on Normal in close to 3 hours. Lots of resets due to limited continues, but the stages are relatively simple to learn (except the last one). I have no idea how I beat the final boss. That was my second to last life and I was pissed at the Sovietipede platforming before.

I dunno, I hope Revenge of Shinobi is good at least, right now I kinda feel that I should have bought Paper Mario and a NES game. Will try it after lunch!

I swear the Manual Book is just a Key Item. Unless that's something different about Phantasia that I didn't know about. I'm sort of waiting on the PSP's X version to be translated before I play that. I also really want to play Destiny's Director's Cut as well but again without a translation its sort of tough.

I got the name wrong, it's actually the Technical Ring. But yeah, this was still when the series was just starting out and the PS1 remake of Phantasia came after Destiny, so it's no surprise it's an accessory.

So I'm still playing Pac-Man Museum. Apparently I'm like a Masochist for these stupid stamps so I can unlock more worthless crap.

There's this Navigation mode thing that's supposed to help you in Pac-Man (And I think its in Ms.Pac-Man, Super Pac-Man and Pac&Pal as well), where a ghostly Pac-Man shows you where to go and such. Helpful for people completely inept at getting good scores (like me)

Simply put, it doesn't work. You pick a stage other than stage 1, it doesn't work. Start from the beginning, and it'll work, but it only works on ONE PATH, one which can very easily be altered by the Ghost AI, you follow the path but a Ghost decided to take a different direction than where the Navigator was expecting it to be? You either die because the [tornado fang]er led you into a ghost without a power pellet, or the little navigator fucks right on off and disappears never to return because it decides you don't need it because you stopped following it and doesn't return to pick a new path or anything.
Great system guys!

Super Pac-Man is painful to play, its fun with the Super Pellets but they're basically worthless 10 levels in as they don't last long enough to do anything of note.

Pac&Pal is equally painful, It takes after Super Pac-Man with the gates and such, but instead of Keys you flip cards, you have to collect junk but Miru, your so-called pal, can grab the stuff before you and drag it off to the ghost house, you can grab it back from her but she likes to hide behind the other ghosts and as always they prove to be annoying, there's an orange box in the middle of the area that I have no idea what it works for.

Pac-Attack would be better if it wasn't the Genesis version. It would also be better if the game didn't force you to play on Normal to get ANY of the stamps, [parasitic bomb] like "Clear 5 Rows at once" or "Get 500,000 points" takes FOREVER, on Normal you already start with 100,000 points, its just a matter of what speed/point value you start at.

Pac-Land... ugh. Its supposedly a platformer, but its got a helpful heap of bullshit in its system, precise jumps while you're not just on a time limit but also being chased by a ghost for fruit that will just disappear suddenly, a bunch of [parasitic bomb] you can't grab because its too high up, controls that are stiff and unpleasant (Think Ice Climber in terms of jumping, Horizontal movement is so [tornado fang]ing stiff and you need to be 100% on the platform or you won't get higher, now add that with narrow platforms and low ceilings that you'll bump up against more often than not). Ghosts [tornado fang]ing everywhere in the beginning/middle of the stage but you don't get a Power Pellet till right near the end of the stage, where there's maybe 3 ghosts if any. Want to run back and eat a bunch of them? Well too bad they're all gone, and you're running out of time still.

Championship Edition, that's fine. I have no issues with it other than its a bit hard to play after playing CE DX+.

Pac-Man Arrangement's not the amazing version from 1996 that was in the GCN/PS2/Xbox Namco Museum, its a version that was included with a PSP Namco Museum. It's a fine game, just not the one that I really like, that said, its also REALLY easy (Ghosts are slow, Power Pellets last a really long time, and there's like 6 of them in some stages) and its the only game I've gotten all the stamps on.

Battle Royale... its a Multiplayer game so its not exactly something that's fun without more people, that being said, its also a Local-Only Multiplayer, have fun huddling 3 more friends around a PC monitor to play a game that's in a really small screen resolution. If you play by yourself you're stuck against a really dumb AI.

Pac-Mania's another easier game, the isometric angle makes it a bit confusing but hey you can jump, and its got some pretty cool Genesis sounding music (That being said, the Genesis version of Pac-Mania looks like a pirated NES game and sounds awful.) The stamps in this one are easy too, most just revolve around points and you can hit the desired point amount by going to Sandbox Land right away and beating it thanks to the Point bonus. The only tough ones are last three which require you to play for 3 hours (Not consecutively obviously but still.)

Game just frustrates me. It could've been so great, but instead its a frustrating mess of really hard challenges, bugged emulations (Super and Pac&Pal both feature the ghosts stopping and fidgeting around when they change their pattern from "Stay in the corner" to "Chase Pac-Man"), missed opportunities (Battle Royale, perhaps maybe 1996 Arrangement), strange design choices (locked to 720p, on top of which all games are rendered pixel perfect, at the cost of them being wrapped around a huge border because of how tiny the game visuals are, with no option to increase the size or anything.) and overall just little care.

edit: oh holy [tornado fang] I didn't realize I made such a long post.

Double EDIT: I will say a nice positive though, the music for the "Pac-Room" (Basically the place where all the worthless Ghostly Adventures junk goes) is now a remix of the music from World 1 of the 1996 Arrangement and its really good sounding.

There are literally two things that can get me to put down Hyrule Warriors:  My wife, and Smash Bros.

Playing as Midna in Warriors is every bit as awesome as I'd imagined.  Her SP attack could stand to be stronger, but she's otherwise deadly.  And, despite some lousy luck with her Shackles early on, I just recently got one with Stars+, so that's cool.

I'm at Chapter 6 now. The combat has a certain cadence to it compared to RE4. It's not that killing enemies is hard, you just don't get a free pass as often as in RE4. You can't go nuts with melee attacks, for example, and everything that helps with crowd control is limited. If you want to kill a group of enemies, you either use explosives (limited), burn them all at once with a match (also limited), or abuse the environment (most fights so far happened in big rooms with multiple doors and vantage points).

On the plus side, you are definitely equipped well enough to outsmart any enemy encounter. From proximity mines to OHKO enemy weapons that you can only use once. My favorite parts were the ones where I knew there was going to be a big fight and I booby-trapped the entire room Home Alone style before I triggered the mob.

You also can't carry too much ammo, but you can upgrade your stock to carry more stuff.

It's pretty interesting, like... you'd think the guy who created RE4 would just make a similar game and you'd crush it, but there's a lot of new ideas and strategy. I can see people not enjoying the slow and methodical planning sometimes (as well as the occasional cheap shot), but I'm having a great time.

Finished The Evil Within!

Holy crap @ final level. Not super heavy spoilers, but just to be sure:
[spoiler]It does not disappoint. The final boss is the craziest thing. Pretty easy fight too, you don't even need your own ammo. I ended up saving the Magnum w/ 9 shots for this fight and it wasn't necessary.[/spoiler]

I loved the game. It does Silent Hill better than the more recent SHs at least, there's a ton of weird stuff to see, and it's a very rewarding game in its design.

It's interesting, you never have to worry about getting stuck forever due to scarce ammo, but during any one fight, it's always kind of a struggle to walk out of there without wasting supplies. So while you do find enough shots to survive between the closest checkpoint and a tough room, the game is smart enough to keep you from hoarding and building a huge arsenal (unlike pretty much every post-RE4 survival/action horror). The next fight is always just as intense as the previous.

I may jump right into NG+ to collect the missing map pieces and upgrade my gear.

I haven't had much time to play TEW but I just got up to Chapter 4. I am DEFINITELY feeling that Resident Evil 4 vibe. When I got the Shotgun and Agony Crossbow I felt exactly like I did with a shotgun and rifle in RE4. Not helpless, but not all-powerful either. It's almost the same kind of atmosphere, but TEW has enough new mechanics to make it feel fresh.

Also, I'm still playing Alien: Isolation, though for the past week I haven't been able to get past the first major stealth section with the Xenomorph because I'm a total [sonic slicer] and apparently very bad at stealth if there aren't guard patterns to be observed like in Thief/Dishonored.

The Legend of Korra (PC)

Made by Platinum, so you know what to expect. IGN and Gamespot are liars and slanderers giving it a 4/10 and 3/10. Destructoid's 7/10 is far more accurate. Don't believe the hate. It's got like a >90% approval rating on Steam. PC port is solid, though lacking in options. You better have an XInput gamepad too (or converter software for PS3/PS4/etc controllers).

Action is solid, even the dog sections aren't that bad. I got the hang of it really quick. It is indeed short, but for a $15 dollar budget title? It's not bad at all.

The combat feels REALLY satisfying, and I love the way they did the powerup equips. It looks and feels like the show, so very accurate. Also has a slew of animated cutscenes for every stage, as well as a whole load of dialog from the show's actual actors. A good set of items to equip, and alt costumes, etc. I'm pretty impressed with what they had stuffed in it for the price honestly.

If you like action games and a good challenge, this is definitely a must buy. Though I will mention if you haven't watched Korra up to the end of Book 2 you'll probably be completely lost in the story. Not that it matters too overly much.

The thing is everything the reviews say seems true, it's a question of what matters to you. All the reviews agree: the narrative is terrible, the game is short, the levels are pretty empty and unalive, and the fighting is gorgeous and fun.

Since reviewers are idiots who don't care about fun, that to them is a low score. No "immersive experience" just aimless horde slaughtering, but if you enjoy aimless horde slaughtering say because the slaughtering mechanics are complex and engaging, then it's a great game.

Not sure why people get so caught up in what review sites say, its not as if they judge video games purely on objective merits.

For what it's worth I LOVE Dynasty Warriors Gundam. Not so much the main DW series though. For me the Gundam spinoff series added a LOT to the game, like dash boosting/cancelling, flying, transformation modes, etc.

So Lords of the Fallen is pretty good

It really is like a modified souls clone.

It even has a Dark Souls control scheme available from the default.

Gameplay feels more visceral than souls. combat definitely feels better.

I like the bosses, though they aren't exactly tough.  Worshipper has got to be my favorite so far. Spooky graveyard and Scythe and [parasitic bomb].  Overall, it really feels like a good ol' videogame.

It does have problems though. It uses Physx, and forces it on other cards outside of nvidia.

So if you use AMD you need to disable physx in the .ini settings. Same place where you can define your desired framerate.

Which is a neat feature.

Bayonetta 2.

This game's presentation is breathtaking. Maybe coming from the crappy PS3 port of the original has something to do with it, but yeah. Beautiful art, music and locations. I'm really impressed by the solid framerate and how the game does whatever it wants with scale and size. There's always a ton of things happening during combat and in the background, and the game does not stutter for one second (so far at least).

I haven't played too many 2014 releases, but this one is easily shaping up to be my favorite. Can't wait to play some more later tonight.

I'm a little stuck on the third Witch Trial in Bayonetta 2.

I also tried more weapon combinations, and I still like the Whip and Chain Chomp the best. But I'll buy another whip and see how they work on both arms and legs. I expect the combos to be even more insane.

If you're still having trouble, use Bracelet of Time + Evil Harvest Rosary. That combo got me through WT5 and Rodin. Freeze time and grab the enemy with Alruna. When you slam them into the ground, follow up with something like charged Undine or charged Salamandra.

You can also use Rosa, her PPP combo (charge each punch) is devastating.

Thanks for the tips! I'll use them when I assemble enough halos. I've been mainly using my halos to buy alternate costumes, rather than accessories. I regret nothing! XD

And yeah, I used Rosa for a bit. Didn't get too acquainted with her, because I was really itching to play as Jeanne.

Nice. :)

I'm playing The Evil Within on Nightmare difficulty. It's tough, but fair for the most part. I like the new enemy placement and all the added traps (more trap parts, yay!). Maybe, possibly, if the planets align, I will attempt Akumu one of these days. But only if I can find some reliable strategies for the worst parts.

Recently I played Alan Wake, which I thought was pretty cool. I didn't love the combat but maybe it'll grow on me. I also played Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, and what a great game.

Next up I should play Vanquish and put more time into Drakengard 3, but I'm too lazy to boot up the PS3 even with it hooked into my computer monitor now.

In the meantime though, I've been in the mood for a lot of Payday 2. So much grinding.

I picked up Azure Striker GUNVOLT. All-in-all I'd say it's a decent spirtual successor to MMZX. My only gripe with it is that the writing is a bit too fast. It jumps right into the story. And it's a little bit easy compared to ZERO/ZX like no instant-death with spikes.

True, I had a rough start with this game but once I adapted the whole command deck and started leveling skills and melding them I stopped getting killed so much. I really don't like how stiff combos feel now though, or maybe thats just Aqua?
Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread
Post by: Reaperoid on December 15, 2014, 05:59:20 PM
Yea, command synthesis is important, especially the advanced ones. With the Giga Magic Recipe from Mirage Arena, you can make Seeker Mine which is one further than Mine Square and only Aqua gets it, and Magic Hour in general is just great. Mine Square is great all-round, regardless.

Otherwise, the plan is usually get higher grade magics quick, so you'll want to work on your Reload Boost abilities because Mega Flare takes forever.

I felt that Aqua's styles weren't great, though.

Congrats!

First game of 2015: Vanquish. I'm doing a Shotgun-only run, which I've always wanted to do. Sometimes it's more annoying than challenging, but overall I'm enjoying the run. At 3-1 now, Hard difficulty.

The annoying parts, not surprisingly, are whenever you're required to kill enemies from a distance. Snipers and turrets are often mandatory to progress and you have no choice but to chip them to death with lots of ammo. It always feels like a waste, because you have to plan entire fights around that one enemy or two that will eat half your ammo like it's nothing.

The rest is going pretty smooth. Getting close to enemies is a lot of fun. Feels good playing this game again.

Cleared Shantae and the Pirate's Curse today (Wii U version), both regular and 100%.  Now to start up Pirate Mode and try for the quick-time endings.

So glad I took the plunge on that one.  Music is top-notch, and there's plenty of sheer lunacy beyond the expected fanservice.  I will say, though, that the level of spike-dodging in that last stretch would give Mega Man a heart attack.  Thankfully you can bypass it if you decide you need to leave the stage and come back.

Just got 'Shantae 3' since it finally came out on WiiU (no thank you to 3DS hand cramps and small screens). I have not gotten very far yet, however a lot of things have changed since the last game. Sadly, cohesive art direction for levels has changed for the worst so far that I have seen. Sometimes hard to tell what layers what and what is and is not something I can walk on. It feels somewhat slapped together.

Replaying Cutscene Eve 1.

I'm checking if my weapon and armor are strong enough to handle the Warehouse and the Chrysler Building. Not too worried about the former, but Chrysler looks insane. I'm not gonna stick around until I'm at like max Lv though. If I can't deal with it now, I'll come back to it some other time.

My weapon is at 500+ damage and my armor is at around 400 defense on Day 4. My weapon is a rifle with burst shot, double action and a couple more add-ons. I think the rifle fires too slow, but I can't think of anything better. If you guys have tips, especially for the Chrysler Bldg., they're very welcome.

Would kill for a remake of this with skippable cutscenes...

That's probably the closest we'll get to Haley Joel Osment's real voice (not counting KH1 Sora).

For KH2 Sora and KH3D Sora, I believe he had to make his voice high-pitched; certainly for the latter. His Vanitas impression seems to be more natural, however.

Finished Episode One in Resident Evil: Revelations 2.

I'm enjoying it. I have no illusions about the linearity or the horror, I know this is after all a modern RE. But like the original Rev, at least you're running around, finding keys, exploring and backtracking. And the atmosphere is nice so far. I'm surprised at how long it took the game to make you fight stuff.

I'm playing on the hardest setting available. Zombies are fast and kinda tough. The starting handgun is especially unreliable, I found... enemies barely stagger when you shoot them with it, and unlike the Ooze in Rev 1, I didn't find an obvious weak spot that I can abuse (I know about headshot stuns, but they move and sway a lot, it's hard to aim).

There seems to be a decent amount of strategy in the partner system, and I like how you can switch between the two characters at any time. The Barry/Natalia gameplay is really fun. I thought Barry was supposed to be the firepower half of Rev 2, but at least this segment was just as, if not even more quiet than Claire's. Also, Natalia is sooo useful. I noticed that I control her way more often than Barry.

One nice thing about Rev 2, especially in comparison with RE5 and 6, is that the game doesn't cut to a tiny scene every two seconds. Like how in those games they think you're not smart enough to find a door, so they interrupt gameplay to show you the door.

Finished the first The Evil Within DLC, called The Assignment, in approx. 5 hours (4:5X IIRC).

Overall, it was good. For $10, it could have delivered a lot more gameplay-wise, but it was definitely an enjoyable ride. The stealth is easy and satisfying, but it feels barebones compared to the main game. Sebastian has more options than Kidman even when he's unarmed. There is some decent variety in the design at least, mainly each section having its own gimmick. Nothing felt too long or repetitive. And one of the boss encounters is great.

There's also a fair amount of really simple puzzles. Most of them are optional and the prizes are usually collectables. I got all the letter pieces and missed one or two items in every other category. No idea where all that stuff could be hiding.

Chapter 1 was okay, Chapter 2 was much better. Both had the kind of atmosphere that makes the best levels of The Evil Within, and IMO both had a couple of genuinely creepy moments. I'm hyped for the second DLC. Just hope there's more to the gameplay next time.

No texture pop-in or lag in the DLC. Apparently they do know how to present a videogame, as long as it's a really small one... >_>

Incidentally, the unlockable Kurayami difficulty is literally a pitch black mode where Kidman's flashlight is the only source of light available. Seems dumb and cruel and I'll probably do it at some point.

RE Revelations Episode 3 was quite fun. I still need to do Barry's part but I read that it's pretty short.

I'm pleasantly surprised with this game. It's clearly smaller than the main RE entries, but at least it doesn't try to pretend it isn't. Also, it's very moody for a modern RE game. You cross room after room with no enemies to fight, only sounds and ambience. There are some big action-y fights here and there, though.

And the support characters are possibly more fun to control than the main characters. Moira is so OP with her flashlight + crowbar, it's hilarious.

There seems to be quite a shortage of local co-op PS3 games.

Co-op must be quite fun in this game, I imagine, especially because the characters play so different. You can set up combos together, assign tasks, separate and share items. I haven't tried it yet, though, only played solo so far. Will do it at some point after I finish my first playthrough.

But yeah, it's probably just as fun as RE5 co-op was. And definitely better than RE6 co-op. :)

Played Ninja Gaiden 3, last night and was pissed as to how unfairly hard it was, yet I was still capable of beating. Today I played the Japanese version, and speedran through it, like it was nothing. But it was no where near as unfair, compared to the English versions.

Yes.

Thankfully when emulators didn't existed, I was glad the first game was never part of my Famicom collection (we all know the answer to that). The second game was a cakewalk, although there were times I thought the third game was easier than 2, because of the hit detection difference from your sword.

If you have no prior knowledge of the series, play in release order.

If you understand a lot beforehand like I did, I'd suggest playing chronological order, which would be MGS3 > Peace Walker > MGSV > MG1 > MG2 > MGS1 and so on.

Also, if you'd like, you can actually skip ahead to Metal Gear Solid proper since the canon of the MGX games is kind of under scritiny right now.
Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread
Post by: Police Girl on April 23, 2015, 10:36:59 AM
Oh, that's exactly what I'm doing, release order, so it technically means I'm booting into MGS3 to play MG1 and MG2. I know a bunch of [parasitic bomb] in the series as is (Spoiled the hell out of myself) but I want to start from the beginning and work my way forward.

I can't imagine playing in chronological order to begin with though, going from a considerably more recent game with streamlined mechanics to an older one with less of that (ie, jumping from MGS3 or Peace Walker to MGS1 since V isn't out yet.)
Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread
Post by: Amatiramisu on April 23, 2015, 10:38:39 AM
I played in chronological and I didn't have that problem. Moving from Ground Zeroes back to MGS1 was, dare I say it, actually kind of cool. It was like I was playing a completely different game. I can definitely understand the criticisms against it though.

I'm going through MGS2 myself right now. I don't know what I'll do about MGS4 though, since I don't own a PS3.

My main gripe with MG1 right now is that the [tornado fang]ing transceiver doesn't seem to work.

Like, I have the antenna and recieve calls every once in a while but I can't actually send calls out and get replies.

EDIT: Well turns out you can only send calls out in specific rooms. That's sort of not helpful. Anyway, the lack of Rocket Launcher was what was holding me back since I didn't know how to get it, now I've beaten the game (with like a million deaths because i'm a stupid who didn't have 16 plastic explosives with me to blow up Metal Gear so I needed to die a lot for the game to give me a full stock.)

Finished Gurumin this past week. Pretty fun game. Probably not going for 100% since it requires playthroughs on higher difficulties.

Also finally 100%ed NieR after about 3 years of putting it off. I didn't even have anything really time consuming to do. Now I need to get back to Drakengard 3 though. I'm really lazy about turning on my PS3 even with it sitting right next to my computer.

Right now though, been playing Killing Floor 2. It's Early Access, but very polished and stable. Just a bit short on map and class selection right now. Doesn't matter much when it's just a wave survival co-op that lasts maybe half an hour or less per round.

And for some reason, my PC's being very picky, when it does want to, or when it doesn't want to play these games smoothly. I get the feeling my PC prefers I play the game during the night, instead of during the day. :\

But then I did 7, 8 and 9 with my last life. Final boss was a festival of pause strats and sweaty hands, but I clutched it out.

This game is great, but it really could have used some kind of extra lives/continue system because it literally does not allow you to make mistakes. You can start the game in 2P mode and steal the second player's lives, but I dunno, I always start a new game thinking I'm gonna do okay...

Finished a quick game of Streets of Rage 2 as Skate. First time I beat this as Skate (he was the only character I hadn't beaten the game with yet).

He's such a mixed bag. I like the dash and especially the dash jump attack that has incredible range and hits everything in its path. His throw is good too and he can get behind any enemy super fast. However, his normal attacks are just too weak, his jump sucks, and he has no health.

When I didn't have room to start a dash, enemies would easily gang up on me. And there were several parts where I couldn't figure out a reliable strategy at all. Lost five lives to the freaking boxer boss in stage 5... literally no idea how to deal with that guy as Skate. I thought I'd have to start over because I used my first continue as early as in stage 6, but luckily I got to the final boss with 5 lives on my last continue. Mr. X is a punching bag at least.

Mad Max.

It's a really fun game, and I dont know why it keeps getting [parasitic bomb] on in reviews. Although I did see a review that complained Furiosa wasn't in it, so that actually explains a lot about that.

gameplaywise, the combat is almost identical to the Arkham games. I havent played Knight, so I cant say if the driving controls are similar- but the driving is arguably the most fun part. The open world is fairly well done IMO, with plenty of landmarks to prevent it from looking too samey. The customization isnt bad, but it does take some real scrap digging, which is really the incentive to play the game. To play dress up with Max and build your car up.

it also looks quite pretty. It's a good looking game and they know it, which is why it's got a screenshot mode.

I've been revisiting the Silent Hill series these past couple of weeks. Beat SH1-3 and I'm starting 4 today. I will play all of them except Shattered Memories, because I don't feel like setting up the Wii and I played that one recently anyway.

I can never decide my favorite between 1, 2 and 3. SH3 is the most fun gameplay-wise, while 2 has the best story and 1 is still the scariest, blocky PS1 graphics and everything. To me those are their greatest strengths, although that's not to say they don't deliver where the other excels.

Thought I'd remember less of these games considering how long it's been, but I guess I've played so much of them in the past that it's hard to make them feel fresh again. It's no big deal, though, I'm having a great time.

Okay, I'm really freaking psyched to play the next episode. The cliffhanger was mindfuck, even if I did predict the final moments. Some of the time traveling aspects are too convenient and doesn't work logically, but for user interface purposes, I can excuse it.

Of the games I've played in the Metal Gear Solid series outside of the original MSX games I played MGS1 and 2. 3 is something I want to try out if can get the 3DS version like Unkawaii recommended if I can actually get a New 3DS. Getting the first one working on PC though was pain on Windows 8.1, namely because of how old it is and sadly it doesn't seem like anybody isn't going to give a us modern port of it. Quite a shame though because the PC port of MGS1 is actually really good; smoother texture quality, the ability to save without having to use Mei-Ling for that, surprisingly supports XInput controls despite being a Windows 95 (though mapping the triggers to cycle through items and weapons are reversed for some reason; D-pad isn't as useful as the analog stick however since it doesn't register 8-way controls), and some other improvements.

You can remap the triggers pretty easily. It was kind of confusing at first but I manage to get it to a proper configuration.

If you CAN get Snake Eater on another platform, I'd recommend it over Snake Eater 3D, but it IS a good port and well worth the 30 bucks. Hell, get it on regular 3DS, because aiming with the buttons actually isn't that bad once you get used to it.

There was Ender's Project but because Konami thought it was a good idea to hire a company that makes lackluster ports and games rather than do it in-house (just like they did with Silent Hill 2 & 3) or get Hexa Drive from the start to do the HD Collection for Zone of the Enders, the project was scrapped before it could even have any chance at all. Still pissed that Xbox 360 got the shaft from that debacle but at least I got to relive 2nd Runner in glorious 1080p post-patch on the PS3. Too bad I don't have a PS3 of my own.

-EDIT-
You can remap the triggers pretty easily. It was kind of confusing at first but I manage to get it to a proper configuration.
It wasn't the remapping the triggers that was the problem for but how they're in reverse from what I actually want to map them to that throws me off (e.g. mapping Inventory Weapons to RT sends it to LT instead).

I haven't posted here in a long-ass time.

Finished playing through Silent Hill 1 last night for first time and managed to get the best ending. Felt pretty good, and the game sold me with the atmosphere and tension. The hammer though, felt game-breaking despite being sort of hard to use, especially against the groaners (the "zombie" dogs in this game) because you gotta time your attacks just right to score hits with quicker enemies. What I also liked that there is a bit of stealth involved as the game recommends you to keep your light off to avoid enemies or sneak up on them to score hits on the before they notice you. Now onto another game I'm gonna play from my Spooktober List, Silent Hill 2 on PC.

Hammer is so OP, I love it. I replayed all SH games (except Shattered Memories) last month. Most of them are still great, especially 1, 2 and 3. :)


Got my copy of Super Mario Maker in the mail yesterday. I was gonna give it a title screen test drive to see if everything's working fine, but it looks like I'm required to do a system update before I play. There was a big storm yesterday and the update was estimated at 40-something minutes... I got scared and turned it off. I'll probably do that later.

The guidebook that they included with level design tips is really cool. It's pretty much just pictures and infographs, looks sweet. Can't wait to start!


Meanwhile I'm something like 70% through Last of Us. Loving it. The story is quite beautiful, how the characters interact and how they handle their conflicts. That whole segment where you're looking for a certain someone at a ranch was really touching. Having a blast following these characters and what motivates them.

The gameplay is cool. I'm still getting the hang of the stealth and how to handle gun fights, but the game is pretty easy on Normal.

Just finished Silent Hill 2, and the timing couldn't be any better. It's a good improvement over the first game in terms of story and atmosphere but the combat felt easier than the first one at times and the enemies aren't as persistent on killing you, especially during the parts where you're running through the streets of Silent Hill yet the only threat to you are the slow shambling nurses instead of those mutilated dogs or Pteranodon monsters that gave you good chase, but that might have to do with me playing on Normal like I did with the first one. I find it kind of funny that the hammer comes back in this game but as Biggoron's Sword—I mean Great Knife but much harder to use yet wrecks [parasitic bomb] even harder than ever. I might follow up on the Maria scenario another time since I got at least another game I want to finish up before Halloween is over, and try Silent Hill 3 at some point.

I just gave up any pretense of playing Expert without a crutch and brought with me only two hardmode items to ease the pain. A yo-yo and The Twins staff. I was going to play it legit but I couldn't ever advance beyond the desert early game and couldn't find enough ore underground. (opposite side of the desert was Crimson)

As for what I'm playing today, La-Mulana (because I hate myself), later Doom 3 and Deathsmiles.

Playing way too much Terraria lately. I had an Expert mode game going at one point, but I ended up ragequitting it after the ninth time I died trying to fight any Hardmode boss. Loaded up a Normal save, ended up finding Arkhalis (http://terraria.gamepedia.com/Arkhalis) early game. Currently destroying everything I touch when I'm still in search of Magic Mirror and Extractinator. Beat EoC and EoW ez pz with this retardedly OP sword, so all I need to do now is figure out how to force a Goblin Invasion so I can blow my one-and-a-half Platinum on reforges. Just crafted Nightmare Pick and had, like, nine friggin' meteors land, so I gotta go get me some obsidian for a skull.

Also I have golden Cat Ears (dyed). Still on the hunt for Unlucky Yarn so I have a match with my Magi Carmen outfit.
It's pretty much safe to say that Terraria has taken over my life (http://steamcommunity.com/id/AmethystViper/games/?tab=all&sort=playtime) just like TV Tropes. A part of my playtime with Terraria was trying to make a Cell Phone so I can all the informational stuff in one item instead of having a 4 or so items taking up space. Trying to get the materials from the Angler is a [sonic slicer], though, especially if he makes you try to fish for something that your fishing rod can't catch (i.e. fishes you'd find in lava unless you're lucky to get the Hotline Rod early). I'm trying to figure out some cosplay stuff I can do in Terraria in the spirit of Halloween. Surprisingly I haven't found the Arkhalis in the world I've made. I think I have a spare Unlucky Yarn somewhere.

[spoiler=end game stuff]Moon Lord was a daunting boss fight. It inflicts debuffs that cripples your HP/MP regen abilities, has some very hard (and sometimes cheap) attacks that can take chunks off your HP, persistent as hell on killing you, he's got it all. I had to abandon using melee-oriented strategies in favor for spell-casting because Spectre Armor has a hood that focuses on defense which helps me stay alive long to warp to my nurse for emergency recovery. All of the fishes I've been hoarding and leftover ores also helped in making potions to buff my stats and resistance to damage. The Nebula Arcanum that you can craft with the fragments you get before the fight also helped in dealing damage despite being hard to use since it's slow moving and you have to try to get Moon Lord in position so that the spheres do damage. After killing it, now its "lol [tornado fang] you Moon Lord" now that I have Last Prism to unleash Master Spark and Nebula Armor to jack up my spells to game-breaking levels (on Normal at least).[/spoiler]

Less a RPM RPG and more a story featuring some of the characters reinvisioned to fit the world of the game. I might do some more cameos later but for the time being I want to keep it simple and work on the base game. (Story is all thought up)

MV script language is Java I think? Otherwise it functions about the same as VX/VX Ace with some changes under the hood. Honestly MV is better than VX Ace in some ways and worse in others.

Some missing features like the resource manager or the auto damage formula option being removed is--odd and adds some unnecessary busy work while the loss of MP3 compatibility for new formats is also annoying.

At the same time things like the more advanced character maker, the built in option to switch between side view and first person and more classic features of RPGs built into the database are welcome.

Been re-visiting a bunch of Wii and GC games, starting with Metroid Prime 1-3 and now Metroid: The Baby. Prime trilogy is simply fantastic. I did a ton of sequence breaks and had a great time.

I only played 20 minutes of Other M so far, paused when you (are authorized to) enter Sector 1. I pretty much can't play this game during the day because the glare in my room is insane (same thing happens with Skyward Sword for some reason). It's funny 'cause in Corruption I can usually aim at any time but Other M's first person view just spazzes out.

The cheese in this game walks the thin line between hilarious and cringy. I love making fun of the story but at the same time I just don't want to see any of it, haha. Wasn't there a project by someone who wanted to mute the narration and leave only the dialogue? The cutscenes do look pretty at least. That Zero Suit Samus... Team Ninja knows their boobs.

20 minutes isn't enough to do much but I still enjoy playing this game. Don't get me wrong, every complaint I've read about Other M makes perfect sense. It's just a game that I somehow enjoy in spite of all the trash in it. The gameplay is fast, the combat is flashy and free, and I just like the idea of controlling a 3D model of Samus. The post-game is really good too, but I don't know if I'm gonna stick around for 100% this time.

I'll play a real chunk of the game tonight.

Other M's writing is awful but so few people seem to point out it's mediocre level design and awful first person game play mechanics. That is what really killed the game for me, I'll admit I smiled when I got to fight Nightmare again though.

Post by: Hypershell on November 09, 2015, 02:24:38 AM
Level design is slightly below par for the series, but I'd still say it kicks the crap out of Fusion.  Control-wise, my only issue is the Grapple Beam.

I do find flaws in Other M's writing, just never what the rest of the internet is bitching about.  I have no issues with Adam or with Samus, in fact I positively love the expansion to Samus's character.  Melissa, though, is the textbook definition of anticlimactic.  Their depiction of the Space Pirates requires some serious no-prize thinking, but it does work for the most part.

Other M cast a big giant spotlight on just how shamefully self-righteous an alleged fanbase can be.  I am sick and tired of listening to people complain that the game is sexist after it tells us that Samus is the most powerful human in the galaxy.  She's no longer an avatar of the player, she no longer thinks what we project onto her, and people who can't deal with that feel dirty, so they have to come up with some socially progressive excuse to justify themselves.

My issues with the writing had nothing to do with supposed sexism but rather how they kept beating us over the head with the baby references. It wasn't clever it was annoying. Also I did have an issue with Samus' breakdown during Ridley's reappearance-but not likely for the same reasons as some other fans. I mean she's fought him how many times since the first game? Why would that happen now and never again after? Just seemed forced to me. I don't think the game is sexist at all-just poorly written, it so desperately wants to be deep and dramatic but pulls it about as effectively as a Megaman story. (Not that well  8D )

Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread
Post by: Da Dood on November 10, 2015, 01:48:27 PM
Near the end of Other Cheese (Nightmare encounters). This game is shorter than I remember.

Man, the story gets worse every time. Samus makes zero sense in this game.

Still having an okay time, though. I did practically the whole thing in one sitting, which to me is always a good sign about the pacing. Really wish they didn't restrict exploration so much. There are moments in Other M where you almost feel that Metroid-y desire to go back and grab a few items, but they literally lock the doors to previous areas and you can't go anywhere but straight ahead. Even Fusion didn't do that, I believe.

I also think the game would have been better (even with all its problems) if it had some optional upgrades. Things like Diffusion Beam, Seeker Missiles and Screw Attack could easily be optional, and they can definitely be useful in combat so it would be great to go out and hunt those on our own. I do like the Accel Charge, but maybe it would have been better as just one item that cuts charge speed by 70% or something instead of a bunch of mini upgrades.

I like that new feature where if you defeat all enemies in a room, item dots are revealed on the map. I think it's good incentive to stick around and clear the room. Too bad 50% of the time you won't have the upgrade required for that item and the game will lock you out of it until hours later.

I'll finish tonight. I'm thinking about playing Super Metroid right after this, which should be... interesting, haha.

On the 9th and final chapter of Trails in the Sky SC. It's been a bit short of two weeks since launch and I'm 63 hours in thus far. Overall a bit trickier than the first and perhaps a bit better balanced with equipment and magic customization. For example giving my tank the best offence and defence items will actually just subtract from one another and level it out pointlessly. Also Estelle continues to shine as one of the best female leads I've seen in a game.

And it's done! Finished Other M in 5 hours plus change. I'm leaving the post-game stuff for another time. I'm planning to do another 3D Metroid mini-marathon with 100% items in these games. It's been forever since I did 100% in the Prime series. Should be fun and different enough from the any% route.

This is still probably the weakest Metroid (I only say 'probably' because I haven't put much time into Metroid 2... but I wouldn't doubt M2 being better than Space Baby), but still pretty enjoyable IMO. I'm gonna do a quick Super Metroid run tomorrow just to see how crazy the difference must be playing these games one after the Other.

Yeah, you kinda feel like playing this game forever in that scenario. So good. It's almost overwhelming being able to go (pretty much) anywhere after you play such a restrictive Metroid like Other M.

Quick run, took only about 1:40, but I spent half an hour trying to cross the missile lake without Speed Booster/Grapple. Still can't do it, and even if I do there's still Phantoon to worry about. But I'm getting more confident at least. What I'm not getting more confident at is fighting Ridley... >_> I wonder if I'll ever beat this guy without nearly having a heart attack.

It's a little late for that.  It's fairly obvious that Clover's been in one of these death-games before, but I hadn't felt lost otherwise.  Or at least, not in any "missed the prequel" kind of way.  It's not as if VLR is a game that tells you things in chronological order anyway.

If I have one criticism of the game it's that the "let's write awareness of alternate timelines into the story" thing is not revealed until after the point, which makes your first encounter with a locked timeline EXTREMELY confusing.

Well, I like the game overall, so 999 is going on my wishlist.

(Oh, I should warn you! DO NOT SAVE IN PUZZLE ROOMS. There is a save bug which causes the game to crash if you save data in a puzzle room. You'll lose all of your data and will be forced to start the game over again. It's not a guaranteed crash, but a high probability.)

Zero Escape is a visual novel series, which means there will be multiple routes. But yeah, I understand how locking routes/timelines would be disorienting for some people.

Personally, it made me all the more excited to try another route and see how that story plays a role in tying up loose ends in the locked timeline. Also, coming from 999, the timeline flowchart is an absolute godsend, because you can jump to any part in the story you wish.

Yes, it's not mandatory to play 999 first. You can still get all of the information you need just from VLR. However, you'll completely lose the sentimentality factor from seeing returning characters if you haven't completed 999. It hurts to see how far they have "fallen", I suppose you could say.

Essentially, it's a matter of nostalgia.

I completed Luna's story by looking up the password online.  That was my first playthrough, so yeah, lousy luck on the whole locked storyline thing.  If I, for example, hit Dio's ending first, then even though I still wouldn't have had the needed info for Luna, at least I'd have known what the heck was going on.

So yeah, Luna and Dio, and got as far as I could for K before hitting a story-lock.  Where's that damn aluminum foil when you need it?

I know about the save bug, but thanks anyway (no idea why they didn't patch that...).  And the mechanics of jumping/branching paths is something I very much appreciate, it's just the way the locks are presented that can be disorienting the first time.

Anyways, right now I want to hammer out a few more playthroughs of the Project X Zone 2 demo, but as soon as I jump back into VLR I'll be starting with Tenmyouji at the first door.

Are you kidding me, Shell... You weren't supposed to look up the passwords online. You're meant to come across it naturally and jot it down in your notes. Now you know huge parts of the story way too early.

The point of VLR is to slowly piece together the story and the answer will come to you. It's a mystery thriller, therefore the confusion is intentional.

At least there's still a few (massive) plot twists left, so there's that.
Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread
Post by: Hypershell on February 09, 2016, 11:55:33 PM
Like I said, Luna's story does not communicate that, if it's your FIRST one, you have no idea where that password is supposed to come from.  The fact that the game contains a branching story does not in itself let the player know that the key to a given lock falls outside of linear time.  Not every story path communicates that the time-jumping is part of the story and not merely a play mechanic.  Luna's, up until the login anyway, is one that does not.

And anyway, the spoilers of Luna's ending were not THAT severe if you think about everything that happened along the way.

[spoiler]Aside from the fact that Alice's death was suicide, nothing in Luna's ending was terribly surprising.  I had already summized that the old woman was an intended participant and that Dio had at the very possibly least witnessed her death (after round one of the AB game it was pretty damn obvious).  And the Gaulem setup was transparent; if anything the surprising part is that Luna is the only one.  ...allegedly.  Like I said, still more to play.[/spoiler]
Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread
Post by: Phi on February 10, 2016, 03:17:51 AM
Well, if any game obstructs the story with a password or obstacle, chances are, you're intended to come back to it later. Especially since you're going down a linear path, it's your very first route and the flowchart has dozens of other routes? It's not difficult to deduce that the answer may lie elsewhere, alternate timelines notwithstanding.

As for the revelations in Luna's ending
[spoiler]The aluminum foil aspect would've been hilarious to know it was simple to remove the bracelets after hours of time jumps and AB games. The password itself is massive spoilers and Luna's death would hit a hell of a lot harder if you beat the other routes and bonded with her.

It's by far the best ending in the game, arguably... and you got it first.[/spoiler]

It also screws with the narrative cohesion and the fact that Sigma can retain events from other timelines, because the player is only supposed to know as much as the protagonist (not counting story predictions, of course). So when you do other routes intended to be completed before Luna's, Sigma will seem unusually ignorant since he was vastly less knowledgeable, prior to Luna's ending.

In any case, there are far bigger mindfucks to come, and thankfully her ending doesn't quite disclose them. Also, I'm not pissed or anything trivial like that; just slightly annoyed because I've seen others try to rush through the story, too.

Well, it IS a little disheartening to think that after clawing through one of the longer storylines for your first time, you have to fly blind through 27 other possible forks before getting any closure to that one.  You could say the whole emotional investment thing works against itself in that regard.

Well, if any game obstructs the story with a password or obstacle, chances are, you're intended to come back to it later.
Literally every single puzzle room in the game teaches you otherwise; on-the-spot password locks are both how the game progresses and how optional backstory is unlocked.  The fact that the game kicks you out if you fail only communicates that the answer is not readily available in that scene, not that the answer lies nowhere in the current timeline.

Using the floor B graffiti as the big hint didn't help any; floor A's graffiti was an anagram whose original text was (as far as I know, anyway) completely meaningless; that coupled with the allegedly deliberate misspelling of "ninth" seems to scream not to take it at face value.

The only remotely trustworthy hint that you're supposed to come back later is that, if you look REAL close, I'm pretty sure Phi's body is among the "remember death" flashes, which is out of place.  But that's an automated sequence, you're not given the chance to absorb it and/or confirm that you saw what you thought you saw.  Not to mention that even if you could digest it properly, hallucinations are hardly off the table since the lock is preceded by an unexplained reality-fast-forward spell.

Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread
Post by: Hypershell on February 18, 2016, 04:18:25 AM
"Most people" wouldn't, it all hangs on whose story you land on first.  Having completed the game yesterday, I can now say with certainty: Luna's story is the only one where this is a problem.  Luna has the only password lock in the game that you can conceivably hit before it is revealed that the Flow screen is not merely a play mechanic (all others are in Phi's story, and they are behind a story lock).

And I......really disagree with you on the importance of waiting on Luna's ending.
[spoiler]As I said before most of Luna's ending is merely confirming suspicions.  And I think, given the lack of a story-lock, the game designers were aware of this.  There are just SO, SO many more less predictable elements that fall outside of her story, especially around K and the exact mechanics of how the time-jumping works.  Sigma's ignorance in "prior" timelines is a non-issue since it is supposed to be a struggle for him to retain his memories; in most cases he isn't supposed to know everything the player does.  For that matter, once you realize the nature of the game's story requires letting go of linear time, you basically expect that you're not going to be fed things in order anyway.

On that note, the only bonding with Luna outside of her own story that I considered at all significant was concerning Sigma's arms, and I honestly don't feel that I missed much.  Most of that centers around Asimov, and as a Mega Man fan who's long been trading paragraphs with Zan, applying Asimov's laws to a non-Asimov work is something I find more than little cliched.  Luna's own story pretty well communicates what a kind soul she is, Sigma's basically just lets you know how he knew to look for her in the garden, and that's pretty much it.

I don't think Luna's character or story are in any way bad, mind you.  They're just oddly predictable in a game that otherwise makes it a point to screw with your expectations (not to mention your concept of reality).  I mean, jeez, I knew the "016" in blood did not refer to Luna as soon as I saw it.[/spoiler]

You gotta love the logic of fans who claim that lacking perma-death and/or the possibility of camping in DLC make the game too easy no matter what.

...yeah, Awakening taught me that my "main" save should not be in any mode that features an abundance of enemy-exclusive skills.  Even if I can still win, the game is just less fun that way.

For now, I'm holding off on Fates.  PxZ2 is still beckoning to me, and I'm more a little ticked at the lack of availability of Fates's Special Edition.  I think the pre-orders for that thing sold out within 30 seconds of its announcement, and I was HOPING there would be some half-assed retail stock to compensate, but no such luck.

Conquered the Mario rank in Star Fox 2.

(http://i.imgur.com/SvW9cd5.png)

SF2 info is so scarce that there's a whole set of collectables in this game (Pepper Coins) that no one knows what are for. So I was watching an Expert speedrun the other day and, what the hell, this guy's final rank was a shiny golden Mario face instead of a big shooting star. With a little digging through other YT videos I learned that if you score over 250K points in a perfect run (0% Corneria damage, no deaths), you get the Mario rank.

Truthfully, it's not that much harder than simply getting 0%. My previous high score was 226K, which isn't far off. The problem with the Mario rank, however, is doing the whole perfect run even faster since the biggest score bonuses are for beating stages fast (as far as I know, anyway). I wonder if you could hang out inside the levels and defeat as many enemies as possible until you score 250K, but with the map system and whatnot I didn't think that was worth the risk.

Now here's hoping there isn't an even higher Samus rank or something... >_>

This game is so fun. I'm still kinda obsessed with it. I'll come back some other time to grab all the Pepper Coins, even though they're useless.

Well, it's not impossible, but a notable difference is that Beginnings saw a retail release before, just not in english.  On the other hand, being more dialogue-heavy, you'd THINK Beginnings was more work than SF2 would be.

But then, we haven't seen the original Star Fox on VC yet either, have we?  It seems like before the "classic Arwing" bonus was announced the other day, Nintendo was doing all they could to convince everyone that Star Fox began with 64.

I preordered it. And cancelled because the localization reeks of literal children rewriting the script. I'm playing the game only because I have a modded 3DS. I'll most likely buy the Japanese version but I refuse to support shitty localizations. Same reason i'm avoiding Bravely Second, actually.
Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread
Post by: Sakura Leic on March 08, 2016, 03:33:36 AM
Yeah depending on the localization of Bravely Second I'll probably decide to get another game for Christmas.  I mean costumes are one thing, and I can honestly not give a [parasitic bomb] since it doesn't affect gameplay or story, but if that thing about the quests not having bad ends was true for the NA/EU I'm going to wait a bit and get the game used for sure, which again I'm still kind of skeptical about due to the only source being a Gamefaqs user thus far and there hasn't been visual evidence to prove this thing either. 

There's other RPGs I can play before I touch Bravely Second, ones I was looking more forward to anyway.  I just hope they don't localize the memes that plauged the Japanese version to an American equivalent too, I don't understand why they thought that was a good idea to over saturated the game with outdated Japanese memes. If that happens that might just ruin the game for me.  Seriously it's sad when censorship just goes too far, and localization if my last fears hold true, for some stupid reason or another.

However even then I still find it more insulting that they took images out of the artbook too.  A [tornado fang]ing artbook, what the hell man?!

Allegedly.  I had to do a quick search, that explanation is less common than the bogus "Super FX is too hard for Wii to emulate" claims of last gen.

Even if true I don't expect it's something impossible for them to overcome, since we are talking about the cartridge and not the game itself.  Yoshi's Island was remade, obviously, when it came to GBA.  Assuming for the sake of argument that Star Fox would legally require a similar treatment, do you really think that's beyond Nintendo's ability?

Is it beyond their ability? No.
Is it too much effort for them to care? Most likely. Same reason why they almost never bother with getting import games stateside, too much to translate. Mother 1, Sin and Punishment, Lost Levels are exceptions to that case (only because of pre-existing localizations/etc.) but the fact of the matter is they would rather do a cut and dry port with no changes save the requisite "muh seizues remember denno senshi porygon guize" graphical edits than bother remake Star Fox 1 from scratch or translate old Fire Emblem, Wars series or Mother 3. They clearly feel its not worth their time. (And after treehouse botched Fates I wouldn't want translations of those anyway)

Rest In Peace-Used by casuals. Usually they play Mario Cart, or some other simplistic game.
Rest In Pepperoni-Used by 360 no scopers who do the Y Y 360 dorrito shrek shot.

Superhero beat-'em-up-athon! More SNES stuff. Added spoiler tags to reduce the wall-of-text-ness.

X-Men: Mutant Apocalypse
[spoiler]Apparently there's an extended ending in this game and I had no idea. Couldn't find the requirements anywhere, though. GameFAQs codes page is wrong, guides don't mention anything. I found videos on YT with the true ending, and they all appear to play the game perfectly. So I aimed for a no death run, and yep, scored the true ending. Seems like a super harsh requirement though, considering how stupid some of the stages can be with the OHKOs. I still hope the real answer lies somewhere less crazy. Maybe you can't let any X-Men die permanently (which tends to happen in my games). To be confirmed, I guess. For now I'll celebrate that deathless run.[/spoiler]

Marvel Super Heroes: War of the Gems
[spoiler]Unlike Mutant Apocalypse, where most levels are specifically designed for each character, in this one you pick the hero you want for each area. Level design feels kinda generic because of that, but at least you have more decisions to make. For some reason my mind always lands on Hulk for Mt. Vesuvius, even though the guy clearly takes up half the screen. Not that I doubt his capability as a smasher of things, but a master of dodging fireballs he isn't. Ended up switching to Cap. Most levels are best done with Cap or Iron Man anyway, but Wolverine and Spidey can be useful in areas with walls to climb and to deal with attacks that pass right above their head without crouching.[/spoiler]

Death and Return of Superman
[spoiler]Enjoyed it better than my first meh playthrough. I realize now that this is not a game about punching enemies, it's about throwing them. Throw them on other enemies, throw them on the floor to destroy generators, on walls to reveal items. I think I did my whole first playthrough a few years back without knowing about the wall items. That's like playing Castlevania without turkey. Cyborg boss is a cheap bastard and it sucks that this game breaks the One Beat-'Em-Up Rule of being able to hit 2+ enemies at once. I mean, come on, Blizzard. Music is weak too. Those aside, the game was okay.[/spoiler]

Spider Man & Venom: Maximum Carnage and Separation Anxiety
[spoiler]First time playing. There are some cool web moves in these games, and the gameplay can be rewarding if you know the tricks. I like the double smash, power hit and the hero helpers who provide a much needed breathing room. The one thing I hate about both games is that you actually avoid grabbing enemies because you're a sitting duck while doing so. Any group fight is scary because you might unintentionally touch an enemy and initiate the slowest grab animation of all time.

MC's supervillain bosses are crazy unfair. They almost never fight alone, and they're relentless. Carnage must have imported his health bar from an RPG. Separation Anxiety is super free in comparison (finished on my first attempt, no continues). I didn't quite love either game, but for what it's worth, MC is more inspired and interesting. It feels like an interactive comic book (the POW style effects when you hit enemies are a nice touch), it has more route options with Spidey/Venom exclusive levels, and it's packed with secrets. SA is really just a dull and repetitive beat-'em-up. I wonder how Capcom would've handled these back in the day.[/spoiler]

Been playing Salt and Sanctuary it's a solid game to be sure but it feels for all the things the team plagiarized errr homage from Dark Souls 1, 2 and Bloodborne they didn't really take any cues from it's enemy and boss design.

Bosses are way to spammy with their attacks (the second boss is very guilty of this) and the simplistic animations mean it's often hard to get a feel for a bosses "tells" The level design and basic combat is otherwise pretty good although the characters are uuuuugly and very poorly animatied. Guess It should hold me over along with my Dark Souls 2:Scholar of the First Sin run until 3 hits early next month.

I also tried out the Bravely Default Demo today, it's pretty enjoyable and there are parts where I'm laughing.  I think I don't have to worry about the localization too much for the full game, most likely.  Still have a ways to go if the claim that the demo will be 10 hours is true.

Finally got around to Platinuming Bloodborne's main game and DLC. A lot of dull grinding from thoes final two trophies. I doubt I'll be playing this game again any time soon-it's fun and all but the story is a mess of retcons and cut content-on the plus side I can ignore the chalice dungeons forever now.   8D

Must be close to the end of Mega Man Legends 2 (just grabbed the fourth key).

Still prefer MML1, but I'm enjoying it. It expands on the original in ways I'd never anticipate. It's much longer, with bigger and more varied worlds, new upgrades and better controls (thank goodness).

The main story dungeons are way more complex than in MML1, damn. The first game's dungeons were mostly copy-pasta caves where you could get anywhere fast and be done in 10 minutes. There was like one puzzle total (sans key fetching, I only remember the conveyor belt). In the sequel, each dungeon has its own particular design and puzzles. You backtrack constantly through them, different enemies may respawn at key points, and there is a goddamn Cyber Water Temple for everyone to hate (I did!). The optional dungeons feel more like MML1 where you're in a series of generic tunnels looking for treasures. They're fun. Except the underwater one, of course.

Controls are still not ideal, but they're a step forward. I like being able to use dual analog. The graphics are decently detailed especially compared to the original. I don't like that orange thing on MM's back, but hey. And the music is good.

One thing I still prefer in Legends 1 is that the world feels more familiar. MML1 is sort of like Hyrule where everything is connected, even the dungeons, and you're dealing with the same places and the same people all the time. The problems you're solving are all close to the characters, and there's this sense of duty to these places you're so accustomed to. In MML2 there are different islands, different towns and everything is far away. I haven't been forced to revisit much, the story has mostly moved to new areas so far.

Can't say I love everything in the game, but I'm having a great time. \o/ Feels good to play this finally. Will finish later.
Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread
Post by: Da Dood on April 11, 2016, 01:22:37 PM
Finished Legends 2. \o

I got a little salty fighting the last boss... he (she?) is far from impossible to avoid, but it's a tough fight and it takes forever even with a maxed buster. I wasn't feeling adventurous enough to test all my special weapons there, so I went with the pea shooter. All my special stuff were at default power anyway. Upgrades seem too expensive in this game. I was getting my ass kicked and eventually decided to backtrack to the surface and buy some extra Sub-Tank energy. And I bought about 35 extra... >_> That was enough for 4 full heals, which was indeed quite handy. Pretty much tanked the boss.

I also explored a bit, found most drill rooms and did a couple of quests. It's really overwhelming when people keep asking for millions of zenny and you're walking around with 10K. There's gotta be a farming trick.

Cool game. Kinda drags at parts, but I get it. People thought MML1 was too short (which it is... which I like...) so L2 is like an apology letter to those fans. I don't remember my final time, but it was easily 3x longer than the original.

Can't wait for part 3!!! *cough*

Legends 2 is notorious for its over-priced weapon upgrades.  The Shining Laser is nothing short of ludicrous.  A shame the PSP version was never localized, since they did adjust that.

My username is my favorite weapon in the game, and is fairly reasonable to upgrade compared to some of the others; I usually camped on Carlbania to have it fully upgraded before moving on to Saul Kada.  Homing Missile is popular but its final upgrade set is pretty pricey.

No crosshair in the first. Ironsights and scopes are mostly all there is. There's maybe one rifle with a laser sight to help with hip firing. Basic enemies (Clots) have the ability to grab you. If you get completely surrounded by them then it's pretty hard to escape. Berserkers are immune to grabs at least. Also, you run faster with a melee weapon out.

Just tried the Nioh demo and umm--yeah not a great experience.

Controls are lose and just don't feel that responsive, the demo fails to explain it's combat mechanics--like at all and most enemies can outright kill you in one or two hits-It's clear this is meant to be a dueling game like Tenchu but they constantly throw mobs at you. Also not feeling the RNG loot drops.

If developers want to make a Souls like game it might be a good idea to study what makes souls games so fun-cheap deaths and lose controls are certainly not what made Souls so memorable. Thankfully this is an alpha so hopefully they can balance the damage and tighten the controls--oh and make lock on actually lock your character ON the enemy.  O^O

That and I really don't know what it is with Wii-to-WiiU ports that ignore the Wii remote's functionality.  The game is controlled by a reticule in all versions, why would you NOT keep the remote's pointer on WiiU?

Wii version has far superior cover art, I will say that much (yay for reversible jackets).

Tomorrow I'm starting the 2016 edition of something really dumb I do every year: beat 30 games in 30 days. As usual these games vary in length and difficulty, though the great majority will be short and not extremely tough. There are also a few blind games.

The main idea of this marathon is to kinda force myself to play games I've been meaning to play for a while, so a lot of these will be super rusty. I also never repeat games from previous marathons (with the exception of MM3 which is my favorite videogame). It's getting a little tricky to choose representation from certain franchises now. Here's the list:

[spoiler]PS1-3
Castlevania Chronicles
Devil May Cry 4
Double Dragon Neon
DuckTales Remastered
Mega Man X8
Metal Gear Rising
Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge
Resident Evil 4 (Separate Ways)
Scott Pilgrim vs. the World
Silent Hill 3

Nintendo systems
The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
Luigi's Mansion
Mega Man 3
Mega Man ZX Advent
** Mighty Final Fight
Rockin' Kats
Star Fox 2
Star Fox 64
** Super Mario Land
Wave Race 64

Genesis
Bare Knuckle 3
Blades of Vengeance
Jewel Master
** ToeJam & Earl
Quack Shot

PC
MegaMari
Nezumiman
Ninja Senki
RosenkreuzStilette
RosenkreuzStilette Freudenstachel[/spoiler]

The PC games are all Mega Man clones that I've only beaten once or twice. I may get my ass kicked. MegaMari was brutal last I played it. Also worried about how long Majora's Mask and Razor's Edge will take. ** Blind games... both SML1 and Mighty Final Fight should be brute force-able, right? No idea what I'm getting into with ToeJam & Earl, but it's a popular game that looks weird and I already like that. I can't consider Separate Ways a blind playthrough because I've beaten it before (~9 years ago), but I remember nothing about it. Still, it's RE4. Shouldn't be too much trouble.

Let's do this! \o/

Transformers Devastation.
AKA, the game where Grimlock is unlocked at Chapter 3 just so that players remember that there are other characters you can play as.

The game is fun but really freaking hard.  Enemies attack extremely quickly, are stunned by nearly nothing once you get a few chapters in, and the game has no lock-on function so during a hectic fight you basically have to mash the L2 button without actually holding it to stay focused on your enemy (that Blitzwing battle...).  It is a not at all uncommon occurrence to perfect-dodge an attack, retaliate in your time-slowing focused state, only for the enemy to punish you for being in the middle of a combo/heavy attack lag the very split-second time returns to normal.

I have no idea. The basic Four Job Fiesta run has you go to the Wind Crystal, tweet to Gilgabot #Wind and get a Wind job, then #Water for water and so on and so forth. There are various other types of runs (Natural which means Bartz keeps the Wind job because he has the Wind crystal's essence, and so on for the other three, Upgrade which means you get your Wind job then when you tweet Gilgabot #Water you can no longer use the Wind job, or Classic which means you only get the FF1 jobs, etc.)

But Chaos? Yeah the only person who knows how Chaos works is the guy running the Fiesta and he ain't telling. People were saying how it worked last year, but the guy running it straight up said "The thing about Chaos is that it doesn't have the stay the same mechanically from year to year" or something like that. So I have no idea what to expect. The official site literally only describes it as "The player will be assigned jobs."

Outside of that? IT IS A MYSTERY

Nah I didn't have Berserker Risk on, so I won't be getting one. So far it looks like it'll be how it was in past years: I'm assigned 4 random jobs from all crystals, weighted towards later ones and arranged so the earliest one I can get shows up first, and I have to use Freelancers until I'm able to switch to my first job. And my Wind job is Ranger, which is actually from the Fire Crystal.

So I have to use a party of nothing but Freelancers until after Liquid Flame. Of course this could change depending on what comes next, but I think my jobs will be from the Fire and Earth crystals. Which means no berserkers, thankfully, but also no mages at all.

Mastered my first character ever in Street Fighter 2 Turbo: Ken, whose last name funnily enough is Masters... I've wanted to do this since the game came out.

To get the master screen you need to finish the hardest difficulty without losing a round. And we're talking 1990s-fighting-game-AI don't lose a round. Took me a couple of days of grinding and studying the AI. Watched some YT videos and practiced the 4 bosses a LOT before I started seriously attempting this.

As much as I hate fighting game AI, I had fun learning their patterns this time. It helps that Ken has an answer to everything, so even if someone broke pattern I could sometimes think of something on the fly. Sometimes. I just get so nervous even knowing the answer to the fight. One misstep and the whole run is dead. At max difficulty Balrog and Bison can easily kill you in one combo, which is not exactly a joke. Glad I finally did it.

I chose to do this on Turbo because it's my favorite version of SF2. I like Super/ST okay, but on the SNES the music and sound effects have so much more oomph in Turbo than Super. Plus this is the version I played the most as a kid.

Street Fighter AI has a tendency to do everything horrible you can possibly imagine, haha :( They pretty much know your inputs the moment you press the button. Everything boils down to finding AI exploits, which I don't think is very satisfying, but hey. At least I did it.

8+ hours of grinding later... I did it! F you, SSF2, you are mastered.

(http://i.imgur.com/razg4hn.png)

Same rules for the master screen: beat the hardest mode with no rounds lost. I went with Vega this time because he has great counters, excellent range and good damage. Not having a projectile takes some adjusting, but once you figure out how to deal with each enemy, it's no big deal.

Actually dealing with each enemy is a big deal, though... it's not like you can just spam the one strategy and win. There are always 2-3 opponents that fall to the same method, but there are multiple fighting styles you gotta master to beat everyone. Took me forever to learn how to fight Ryu and Ken (they are pretty fun to fight, though), while Vega was total chaos and Bison was... hell, I still don't know how I won. I adopted the same strategy the ~5 times I made it to him and somehow one of those times it worked. The videos I watched make him look pretty simple, so maybe I was doing something wrong.

The new challengers aren't bad to fight. Dee Jay, Cammy and Fei Long are free. I always thanked RNG-sus when they appeared on the list. T. Hawk is braindead easy 90% of the time, but he can throw you off with zero effort sometimes. I still prefer fighting him (difficulty-wise) over Guile or either shoto. Chun Li was boooring. I hate this fight because the safest method (that I found) involves waiting for her to stop spamming fireballs, which can take literally the whole fight. When you're frustrated after the 87th retry, this kind of thing can make you extra salty.

Gotta admit that I had way more fun than I expected. I might do World Warrior to close the series, but I dunno, WW is practically the same game as Turbo.

Notes I wrote while practicing:

And it's done! Mastered SF2 World Warrior as Ryu. \o/

Master screen:
[spoiler](http://i.imgur.com/u4ObDGm.png)[/spoiler]

Harder than Turbo, easier than Super, both by a considerable amount. The AI is dumber in certain ways (I mean, you can jump kick Guile...), you deal more damage and enemies get stunned faster. There's also one less fight because you don't do the mirror match in WW.

But when their health is low/time is running out, the AI's berserk mode gets pretty ridiculous. Vega will stop at nothing to throw you. Dhalsim... has Dhalsim ever been hard, ever? Because he killed me a lot in this game. Bison will spam Psycho Crusher which, to be fair, is easy to anticipate, but if you do the wrong move (like block) he'll throw you immediately afterwards for a nice 50% slice of your HP. Balrog is very annoying in this, which is surprising because you wouldn't think that's the character that would need to be nerfed.

I did sort of find a solution for the berserk mode: setting the time limit to infinite. This guarantees that the enemy won't go crazy before their health is low (I often had fights where I blocked everything without an opportunity to attack, and then the timer was low and they'd go berserk). The problem with this strat was Vega. I can keep him jump kicking at nothing during berserk mode, which is a certain win as long as I have more health than he does. But if the timer never runs out, I'm gonna have to approach him in that state at some point. Somehow it felt better to deal with everyone else's berserk than Vega's.

This one was equal parts frustrating and fun. I'm glad I did it, for sure. Feels really good to be done with these.

Dark Souls 3.

It's... Easy.
And kind of underwhelming.

Now maybe it's just because I'm under an hour in but if I managed to get past the second bonfire in high wall with no deaths during my first run through the game... I don't know man, that doesn't seem right. I died more in DS1 and 2 in far shorter periods. Could be because I'm used to Souls game handling? [parasitic bomb], I don't know.

Finished 2 classic puzzle games for the first time:


Tetris (NES, Nintendo version)

(http://i.imgur.com/qb3SYRE.png)

Dunno if I'm getting old or if the game is that good, but I had a blast. Super relaxing to play at the end of a long day. I used to own the unlicensed Tengen version as a kid, but I never paid much attention to it outside of some games with (and vs.) my parents and my brother.

The main mode of Tetris (Type A) is endless, but Type B has a goal and a proper ending. For the best ending with all the Nintendo characters, you must beat Level 9 Height 5, which requires clearing 25 lines with a ton of scattered blocks clogging up the screen. I'm not good at these games, so I had to constantly pause to think about my next move (with the current state of the puzzle memorized, because they were smart enough to hide the gameplay while it is paused). Most attempts lasted 2-3 seconds, haha.

After that I played Type A for a little while. Started at Level 0 and lost at Lv.12 or 13.


Bust-A-Move (SNES)

(http://i.imgur.com/FWomCs3.png)

Scored the best ending, which requires beating the game in 5 credits or less. Took a few attempts and some science-ing to figure out just what exactly triggers the ending... info about this game is pretty scarce, couldn't find anything. After beating the game with the bad ending, I used a password that takes you to the final boss with no credits used. Lost 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and I was still getting the happy ending. Then I restarted from scratch and played the full game legit. Died 3 times on my successful run. No way I would have done this if you had to beat the whole thing without failing at all.

I love the gameplay, but I get the feeling that the arrow/needle/whatever isn't as precise as it seems. I'm no master of geometry or anything, but sometimes I could swear I was pointing at the right angle and the bubble decided to snap just the one pixel in the wrong direction. I have a crappy free clone of this game on my phone and it seems more precise than the real thing for some reason.

The game is super long. At 100 levels it takes 1.5-2 hours to get to the final boss, and then you gotta hope RNGsus doesn't summon the worst bubbles. It has passwords, but you have to die to see it, so cheesing this game is not that simple. Very cool idea, though, that boss fight. I like it when puzzle games do that. This game is set in the universe of Bubble Bobble... all the creatures and graphics have that adorable BB personality (Bubble Bobble theme plays during credits too).

Cool stuff.

Playing Shovel Knight, first time. Damn, what a cool game. Tingles all the right Mega Man senses and then some. My hand really starts to hurt after using the 3DS d-pad, though :\ Can't stop thinking about Nintendo's obnoxious "hey how about a break?" warnings.


In other news, I downloaded some of the more infamous Mega Man ROM hacks available out there. Can't wait to break my controller playing them. I'll post my impressions of them as I play. Here's what I downloaded + descriptions for those who don't know:

- Mega Man in the Mushroom Kingdom is a hack of MM1 with Mario sprites and (I believe) altered stage layouts to resemble Mario's
- Mega Man Ultra is a hack of MM2 that heavily borrows enemies and stage elements from other games
- Rockman No Constancy is a famous hack of MM2 where almost everything is new, from levels to enemy patterns. This one is ridiculously brutal
- Rockman 3: Burst Chaser is MM3 with new level design, tweaked presentation, and... you move 2x as fast! This hack was built for speed. Even enemies take less hits to die
- Rockman 4 Minus Infinity is a MM4 hack that might as well be a brand new sequel. Even the weapons are unique and there's a ranking system. I've seen live streams of this one, it's very polished
- Finally, Rockman 5 Air Sliding is a MM5 hack with altered level design and the ability to slide in the air. Works kind of like the air dash from MMX games. I played part of Wave Man's stage and I can already tell they tweaked the levels just enough to encourage/force using the air slides. Should be fun

Also, if you guys have other MM hack suggestions, please let me know!

Mostly Golden Sun for the game boy advance. i didn't like it at all for the beginning of the game, considering how common the random enemy's showed up every two steps... but luckily it was fixed in the later areas of the game. I enjoyed watching all the main playable characters interact like family. It shows that they actually care for each other, and I loved that. Still have to beat the last area, but other than that, this game is amazing! I would definitely recommend anyone who likes RPGs this game.  owob

Finished Shovel Knight. 13:14 clear time. Hand's still pretty bad when I use the 3DS d-pad. =\ Circle pad is a little better, but still hurts. I'm gonna take a break from games for a week or two just to be safe.

Great game, damn. It was exactly what I expected, which in this case isn't a bad thing at all. Level design is a big Mega Man throwback. I loved the platform gimmicks they came up with, didn't think there was going to be so much original stuff. I like the variety of relics and how some of them can be used as mobility tools. And the music, holy crap.

The game is pretty forgiving. There are some tricky rooms, and I made it harder by doing the checkpoint-less feat on my first trip to almost every level, but all the bosses can be tanked easily with magic + chalices + HP upgrades.

Did as many feats as I reasonably could on a first playthrough: everything except deathless, speedrun, no relics, etc. I think I'm at 39/45. Will get the rest some other time.

Also, whoa, suddenly there's a new character and a challenge mode. Sweet.

Playing FF14 as always, finished up the Alexander raids finally ,Alexander Prime was a lot of fun and had some pretty unique music. Also finished Weeping City the other recent raid I had yet to finish, it see now why the fanbase calls it Wiping City.  O^O

Weeping City had some pretty big nods to final fantasy 9.

The Main music is a very chill remix of the FF9 battle theme and Ozma is the third boss and is easily the hardest boss in the raid with some pretty complex mechanics. Oh guess Alexander Prime in the other raid is a FF9 reference too since it's the FF9 version of the summon with the angel wings; plus FF9's ultimate summon Ark is a boss just prior to fight Alexander Prime.

Tactics Ogre also got some love in the Palace of the Dead dungeon, a character from that turned out to be the main baddie of the dungeon and even two tracks from the Tactics Ogre soundtrack got remade for the dungeon.

Just need to finish off Binding Coils of Bahamut and Crystal Tower as far as raids go, and a few extreme level Primals here and there and I'm all caught up for the last patch of 3.0 and the eventual release of Stormblood later in the spring.

Post by: Sakura Leic on November 30, 2016, 07:30:02 PM
If you play the NES ones I recommend the remakes since they're a bit dated, FF1 even had a weird way to save.  The lastest versions are on PSP, though 3 can also be played on Steam.

I also recommend the PSP version of 4 as it's the best version of classic 4, 4 on Steam is way different than Classic 4, great but it's a completely different game than Classic 4 and I recommend playing classic 4 before playing Steam 4.

5 I recommend the GBA version because the script localization makes it worth it and I refuse to play the mobile version.

6 it's hard to say whether the SNES or GBA version is better mechanically since SNES has a few fun glitches that make an easy game easier, SNES has better quality music and GBA has a better translation but the original still makes it easy to understand what's going on.

Now 7-10 are still turned based but all of them except 9 have a lot of different mechanics, I don't like 8 alone just for the game mechanics.  They're also way longer than the classic NES and SNES games.

I also appreciate the game's scope being more on the modest side this time... the way things were building up in RE4-6, the next part would've been a Resident Evil galactic war or something. And there's finally some mystery in the series again, which is nice.

The game itself felt like REmake Lite, I thought. Safe to say that I enjoyed it the most while you're in the general mansion perimeter. The slasher flick atmosphere there, the exploration and how quiet that whole place is. There were a few parts in the final act that kinda just played on autopilot, but the ship area was pretty sweet when it started for real and the guesthouse full circle at the end was a nice touch. I cured Zoe because out of those two people she was the only one who didn't sever my hand. Will heal Mia next time.

Normal mode was pretty tame survival-wise. Plenty of supplies and not much to figure out in terms of item management. There was sometimes a thing or two you could do out of order that made a difference (I went back to the mansion for the Grenade Launcher and it owned Marguerite), but RE7 never felt like this giant mansion maze. You can get anywhere in the house without much effort and the objective is always straight ahead. In classic REs you were lost in a big labyrinth of locked doors, grabbing items having no idea what they're for and constantly thinking about how to deal with monsters in the way. RE7 puzzles, item fetching and progression in general were kind of a simplified version of old RE. Those aren't bad things though, just things I noticed.

As usual in FPS games I'm not great at the combat, but in this case it wasn't hard to anticipate encounters with the right setup. I wonder if blocking completely parries the attack if you time it well... I didn't block a lot this time.[/spoiler]

I would jump right into Madhouse mode, but I don't think it's very healthy to have a copy of Bloodborne within reach for months and not play it.

Finished Bloodborne for the first time. All bosses including DLC and all fixed Chalice Dungeons.

Awesome game. Gotta admit that it took me a while to lose myself in it, probably a combo of series fatigue + still feeling cautious about using my hand for twitchy gameplay. I end up playing in shorter bursts and taking lots of breaks to be safe. Bleh. =\

Things I like better in Souls
[spoiler]- This game feels restrained coming from Dark Souls 1 and 2 IMO. There aren't many build options or weapons, and the path is super linear and samey. I mean, Bloodborne has a different style of replay incentive with the combat being more technical and all, but limiting the stat builds and routing choices makes the game less interesting to me. Especially thinking about future playthroughs... when DS2 came out I had tons of complaints about it, but I was already planning my next run before the first one was over. In Bloodborne I'm pretty excited about learning parries and other combat intricacies, but not so much about planning where to go and what to grab on the way.

- I miss simple backstabs and shields. Oh, and rings! I need my fast stamina regen and hypermode (is there a rune for those, Beasthood aside?).

- Kinda ties with the first thing, but the loot in this game is so predictable. 90% of the time you just find redundant blood stuff or bullets. Souls games have a bigger/better variety of items, enemy drops, boss souls, etc. Plus with the repetitive layout of certain areas, after a while I wasn't hardcore exploring them anymore, just charging forward.[/spoiler]

Things I like better in Bloodborne
[spoiler]- This game is surprisingly... not trolly... not saying there weren't traps, but sometimes I'm 40+ minutes into a new area and somehow it's still quiet and safe. Except for Chalice Dungeons and maybe a couple parts of the DLC, enemy placement is never too suffocating and even the bosses were pretty straight forward. There just aren't many BS parts in this. Not a lot of cryptic moments either.

- Items sent to storage when you're full! Now that's nice.

- Gameplay is smooth, like the real evolution of DS1. If only DS2 played like this instead of tweaking every little thing to be more of an obstacle. Visceral attacks are really cool too. I also enjoy exploring with the torch in the dark/at night. Seems like that's what they truly wanted DS2 to feel like.[/spoiler]

Other stuff
[spoiler]- I found the Chalice Dungeons very tedious, at least the fixed ones (only played offline). It doesn't help that the loot is mostly ritual materials, so you end up exploring a dungeon with the sole purpose of opening the next one. Would be nice to enter a depth 4 chalice during a main game run and grab some OP gear there, but the way they're structured you can't do deeper areas before you slog through a bunch of others, and by then you'll be so advanced that there's no point anymore. The maze layouts weren't exactly a delight either. Some of the bosses were neat, though, when they weren't literally just regular enemies with an HP bar. I do like how the altars carry over to NG+ so you can enter Lv.4-5 dungeons whenever and farm XP like crazy.

- My current series rank: Dark Souls > Demon's Souls > Bloodborne = Dark Souls 2 (they're all at least 9/10 games IMO)[/spoiler]


Next up... maybe RE7 Madhouse.

Mega Man II for Game Boy. Underrated title and a great time waster (and unfortunately the only Mega Man game I brought back to school with me). Though after a recent play through, it glitched out and Wily just left the game completely.

As for what I'm still playing, it's the usual. WoW and Dark Souls. I'm gonna put Midir down and then put 3 down for a LONG time and go back to DS2, when the series was good. Also putting some time into Overwatch because I have no self-respect.

Been replaying some short retro games while Dark Souls 3: The Fire Fades slowly makes its way here via jungle raft.

DuckTales -- I didn't know that medals were a thing in this game. Not only you get the best newspaper for collecting $10 million/all big treasures, you also score a gold medal for beating the game on Difficult. It's nice how much DT changes from any% to best ending. Suddenly the game is 5x bigger.

(https://i.imgur.com/kFVJyAL.png)

Super Mario Bros. 2 -- Wanted to do a playthrough as Toad only. Wasn't as hard as I thought, although some levels like 5-1 are kind of a pain without a more controllable jump. This game is really cool, I don't give it enough credit usually.

Mystical Fighter -- Pretty unremarkable Genesis beat-'em-up in general, so much that I... forgot how to play it. I got through the whole thing with just jump kicks and roll kicks and it felt super lame. Then I restarted to see if I was missing something and yep, totally forgot about the OP grab attack where you spin enemies and throw them. It's not the most intuitive move to discover on your own because you have to touch the enemy while holding the attack button. I think the manual teaches it, though, at least. Went through the game again and it was much faster (and better).

Thunder Force 3 -- Finished the hardest difficulty (Mania). Damn, this game is freaking awesome. Along with the first party Sega stuff and Treasure, this is the kind of game that makes the best use of the Genesis' speed and sound. The action is so fast and smooth. Mania wasn't as hard as I imagined but still pretty tough.

Gley Lancer -- Another shmup beaten on the hardest difficulty (also named Mania). Except this one was brutal. The bullets are so fast and so many, there were several parts I couldn't get through without constant pausing. It doesn't help that this is one of those shmups where you die and have to restart from a checkpoint. And the power-ups aren't quite as powerful as I remember, though maybe playing this right after TF3 had something to do with it. Why not give you a little shield at least...? The music is fantastic and the action is also lightning fast. I like TF3 better, though.

NieR: Automata, which is one of the best JRPGs in the past 10 years.

Post by: Flame on July 05, 2017, 12:59:33 AM
I dont notice it, it's not something easily noticed on console and normal TV.

What i DO notice is that the jumping physics are ever so slightly off, (crash falls slightly faster, and you can't get full momentum off of a bounce without a running jump) making the bridge levels in Crash 1 rage inducing. Also, landing on the edge of a platform or box and slipping off.
Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread
Post by: Phi on July 05, 2017, 06:45:30 AM
It's very noticeable if you play PC games

I will say that, given how [tornado fang]ing ridiculous the level design for High Road is, 30fps is actually a good thing

Anything faster will make me kill myself
Title: Re: The "What are you currently playing?" Thread
Post by: Flame on July 05, 2017, 06:16:46 PM
the bridge stages are unbearable due to the change in physics. mainly, Crash's hitbox now being pill shaped instead of a cube, (causing that issue where if you land on the very edge of something you slip off) and the way you can't get full momentum on a bounce jump without a running start, making the turtle sections of High road damn near impossible.

thankfully, you can still cheese the stage by walking across the ropes. (though crash's hitbox makes this require precision and care now)

I've already invested 100 hours into Xenoblade 2.  My favorite game of the year, but it's mostly because I just enjoy the story/characters.  It's pretty much an interactive anime, and its localization was handled a HELL of a lot better than Tokyo Mirage Sessions.  But the map system just sucks.

They have an event gallery, thankfully, but it seems to leave out the Heart To Heart conversations.

XenoBlade 2, it's soooo good. I love this game. But besides the map, I wish I didn't have to keep switching blades in and out for every field skill that I keep running into. I would give up the map if they would just use their skills without having to swap them in and out every 10 seconds. Also, choices they made with the menu and button layout if a bit of a "WTF were they thinking" moment. The D-pad to look at the buttons? I feel like that's is a waste of 3 buttons I could be using. But all in all the problems with the game are minor. Great game and worth picking up.

Since I'm using a ROM of the SNES version I also applied a patch to it that makes the translation more like the Japanese version.

There's gonna be some other stuff I'm gonna be doing for funsies due to the Twitter bot assigning teams glitching that I explained in the first stream, kind of jumbled up a bit due to having to play Megaman Soccer for 10 minutes.....kind of a long story that one.
