The "What are you currently playing?" Thread

[Mr. Haxwell]

Alright, just finished my original Tiberian Sun playthrough, gotta love how the cinematic scenes look like Star Trek ripoffs.

Now onto Firestorm, and already realizing the GDI general reminds me of Granger from Tiberium Wars.

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.

[Amatiramisu]

I liked X3 the most.

Back on Bastion, finally. I'm no longer too frustrated over losing my save to continue. Someone also recommended me to play a Strategy RPG/Visual Novel called Sengoku Rance so I'm playing that too.

.....five hours?

[Suppercut ♡]

.....five hours?

Yeah I know I suck bla bla

By the way, that was with minor usage of save states (only at passwords and the subboss where yoy can get the Z-Saber) and speedups.

[Protoman Blues]

It shouldn't take...

Never mind! 

[Amatiramisu]

I can't believe it either but I have no room to speak as I have yet to do that little "Beat MMZ4 in under an hour" thing.

[Suppercut ♡]

Granted it was an estimation. It may have been only about three hours or less. The general gist is that X3 causes me too much frustration.

I can do the first two in much less time.

[Fxeni]

X3... bleh. Too each their own, I guess.

I'm still playing Fire Emblem Awakening for the most part, although I'm playing some Assassin's Creed 3 since I need to know how the series works for work.

[Burst]

X2 utterly eviscerates X3, especially if you're playing that dumb PS2 version with the cutscenes and different soundtrack. GUH

[Amatiramisu]

I haven't finished X3 on my copy of X Collection just for that godawful music.

Same, I will never forgive Capcom for replacing that soundtrack.

I was genuinley more upset over than then the cancellation of Legends 3, only because it stalled too long for anyone to believe it was going to stick around.

[Amatiramisu]

I found an iso of Sim Theme Park and I still have my old Gold Edition disc!
Along with that I found an iso of Scooby Doo: Showdown in Ghost Town, an iso of Typer Shark!, and I'm still playing my old Frogger, He's Back! iso.

Childhood HOOOOOOO!

[Da Dood]

Yes Fi, I'm aware that my health is low... you know, being the guy who's almost dead...

After surviving the first few hours of Skyward Sword's longest tutorial ever, I'm having a good time with Hero mode. Let's see if I'll play through the whole thing this time.

As for my exploration so far, I got two Empty Bottles without looking too hard, found an extra inventory slot, and backtracked for +300 wallet and the Bug Net because POTIONS. Pretty decent stuff before the first dungeon, I guess. Just entered Skyview Temple.

are you aspiring to become a carbon copy of me or successor in the future like seriously what the [tornado fang] man. this is too much.

although i still have mine fully boxed and all so you've still got a ways to go

He's not worthy of being your successor.

i miss my copy

it broke :C

[irgpie]

i'm not sure if mine even works. Any computer we got past that old 98 machine has trouble just trying to install it.

few are. to even hope to reach my level, one must go on a 4 year journey of self-discovery and in the process amass 200+ avatars of Dr. Ivo Robotnik and then sacrifice them to the Great Recycle Bin upon the Great Epiphany of Indifference and carry on life in minimal interaction and slight delusion towards all aspects of the outside world.

[Amatiramisu]

That's odd. I installed it on my 32-bit Win7 and no-cd cracked it and it runs fine, without compatibility mode on.

[irgpie]

i've yet to try it on my 64-Bit Win7 Ultimate because i'm lazy and ALL THESE [tornado fang]ing STEAM GAMES LEMME TELL YA.

like on that matter I just randomly got back to maybe finishing Bastion because while I don't feel much hype of Supergiant's new title I'm probably going to wind up getting it anyways.

Also have gone back to maybe finish Painkiller because I guess all this time at the library puts me in the mood for mindless gratuitous violence and silly ragdolls with excess limb loss.

An exceptionally rigorous feat to be sure.

Have been playing Ninja Gaiden II for NES.

Just picked up Ninja Gaiden II for 360, and it's a blast. Prob gonna get Bayonetta whenever I see it.

I'm on an action binge lately.

Also saw Shaq-Fu at my used game store for 3 bucks. If it's there next time, I'm getting it if only because of the Continue? episode and to show my friends something so stupid can exist. And then I'll beat it.

I have Metal Gear Rising but stopped around the 3rd level or so, don't know why, but I'm sure I'll beat it before summer sometime.

Still venturing through Etrian Odyssey IV. Made it to Land 3, taking my sweet time.

Once I finish that, I'll jump to P4G.

That game, Dark Spire, and Shin Megami Tensei Strange Journey are the only games that almost made me get a DS.
