Re: What Game(s) Are you Playing?

Postponed MGR:R for a while so I could play Jak and Daxter HD. I figure since I 100% it twice as a kid, it shouldn't be any problem now. Only been playing it for about 5 hours and I've already got 56%. ^^ Eeeasy Platinum.

by Erel Sat Mar 16, 2013 3:27 pm

I bought the reboot of Devil May Cry. But right now I'm playing Mass Effect 3 with it; so let's see if this new game gets attention; after all, it is Mass Effect! Might be gaming on as Shepard for a bit longer.

by Claire Sat Mar 16, 2013 8:59 pm

Platinum'd Jak and Daxter. Playing MGR:R and Naruto Generations now.

I "finished" Metal Gear Rising last week. I don't know about anyone here, but that final boss is bullshit. Frustrating. So I gave up and watched the ending on youtube. It wasn't my copy anyway so it didn't bother me too much.

Finished Citadel for ME3. It's 3's best DLC but it doesn't even compare to Overlord and Lair of the Shadow Broker. Still fun. Very funny.

Gonna finish Borderlands finally. Then move on to something else.

just finished dead space 3. 7/10

by Erel Mon Mar 18, 2013 10:51 pm

DmC and ME3. Damn, another reboot that went beyond what I expected! So far so good in Dante's lifeline.

And I could care less what he looks like, this game is badass.

^Dante's concept design didn't bother me, but his attitude and the "fuck you, fuck you" dialogue turned me off just from the demo. According to Zane, the gameplay is awesome, but for most DMC fans, it felt too easy. I'm not a hardcore DMC fan, so I don't really comment on the reboot, as I've never bothered to finish 2, and barely played anything of 3. I love the first DMC, even though the difficulty is about as forgiving as a critical hit to the gonads. lol

Playing Naruto Generations, which I might Platinum if I can figure out where the rest of the titles and Ninja Info Cards are hiding. Some people said the passwords are necessary for 100% completion, but I entered a few codes and the percentage didn't increase at all, even though they gave me cards I didn't have before. Still love this game, even though it sucks at the competitive level.

^To me his humor is on a pendulum swing of being stale and generic, to somewhat whimsical and humorous. I'm a fan of the 'don't give a rat's ass/pompous' characters as long as it's played right; so far with Dante it's mixing a fine line.

in regards to gameplay and difficulty, suffice to say it's is rather easy compared to the other DmC's in the past. Then again as you had already mentioned, DmC before isn't exactly forgiving; that and we are on the generation of gaming where everything is made easier; go figure.

Any rate, DmC and ME3 still.

by Archangel Tue Mar 19, 2013 9:55 am

waiting for bioshock infinite...I hope this game delivers because so far this year the games have just been okay. Maybe that is because the release of a new console generation, I don't know.

by The Cap'n Tue Mar 19, 2013 10:17 pm

Back on Borderlands 2 now. Gonna beat the main story and move onto something else.

by Erel Wed Mar 20, 2013 11:00 am

Still on DmC and about to play some ME3 and get Javik out of his eternal slumber.

by Claire Wed Mar 20, 2013 8:05 pm

I felt it necessary to play BBCS2 to get a couple trophies after I Platinum'd Naruto. Not really playing it again, but a couple of bronze trophies that were easily within reach seemed like a good idea.

Going back to MGR:R tomorrow. Normal Mode has a terrific balance even for newbies so far. Bought the poster from Wal-Mart cause Raiden is just the ultimate badass in this game.

by Archangel Thu Mar 21, 2013 12:46 pm

been playing in the combat simulator in ME3...will be getting bioshock infinite shortly

by The Cap'n Thu Mar 21, 2013 8:28 pm

Sly Cooper HD and No More Heroes

by Zane the pure Sat Mar 23, 2013 3:11 am

Neat, No more heroes is badazz.

Mortal Kombat 9
Final Fantasy 8 (the space scene might be the sweetest old game moment I've seen to date)
Tales of symphonia for the millionth firkin time.

by Erel Sat Mar 23, 2013 10:43 pm

Will probably beat DmC tonight. =P God it's such a breeze walk in comparison to the old DmCs....

and ME3 still in the mix!

by Claire Sun Mar 24, 2013 2:44 am

Playing God of War: Ascension. Not bad, but seeing as it's a prequel, there's no god-slaying in this one, so I'm a little disappointed on that front. However, the gameplay is still awesome, Kratos is still a douche, and Crispin Freeman voices most of the extras, so it's still a great game.

Played a little of DMC2 HD, as my trophy card will inevitably point out, but I might not play much of it.

by Archangel Sun Mar 24, 2013 3:41 pm

back to halo 4 spartan ops for now

by Erel Mon Mar 25, 2013 10:59 am

Metal Gear. Not bad. Had to get myself used to the gameplay since it's not as smooth as DmC; but give it enough time and it's getting there. Enticing game to say the least.

by RYCloud92 Wed Mar 27, 2013 8:13 am

A mix of Bayonetta and Darksiders 2 with COD's online in between.

Will soon be playing Luigi's Mansion 2 Dark Moon

by Captain Venku Wed Mar 27, 2013 10:14 am

Some Blops II, Mass Effect 3 and need to continue my play through of Mass Effect 2.

by Erel Wed Mar 27, 2013 11:43 am

Just beat Revengeance. I don't know what to say about this game. I am in ambivalence in regards to it... I guess my review will sum it all up.

I'm on ME3, just finished my mission/s in Rannoch. Tali'Zorah, you are one of the BEST female characters in the gaming world!

by The Cap'n Thu Mar 28, 2013 11:31 am

Bioshock Infinite

AAAAAH THIS GAME IS FUCKING AMAZING!!!! I got the Premium Edition with the first game included in it so after I beat Infinite, gonna revisit Rapture.

@Erel: Overall what's your opinion on Rising? I thought the combat was unique and brilliant. But goddamn I hate that final boss.

by RYCloud92 Fri Mar 29, 2013 8:31 am

Right big list coming.

Playing Luigi's Mansion 2 and LEGO City Undercover (loving both so much).

Also bought Doom 3 BFG edition for £10 and Silent Hill Collection (mainly for Silent Hill 2)

@cap - I don't know what Erel though but I can say that I thought Rising was brilliant, though as you have mentioned the final boss is annoying as hell

by Just_Smile Fri Mar 29, 2013 4:18 pm

I finished the extra game of AC.. (downloadable via PSN)

..It was amusing and a bit strange :')

And I also tried Journey. It has got amazing graphics and I liked the whole concept and environments. It's seriously amazing.
