Re: What Game(s) Are you Playing?

by Archangel Wed Jun 13, 2012 1:49 pm

I guess it's just me then. I would like to play Kingdoms of Amalur and Dragons Dogma, but those are two games that I would like to buy cheap, and they aren't as low as I would like them to be yet. The last quarter should be good at least. Borderlands 2, Assassins Creed 3, and Halo 4 all on my radar

by Erel Wed Jun 13, 2012 11:39 pm

^I would not get Kingdoms of Amalur on full price; even though I did, but I won't recommend it for anyone. I haven't touched it in months since ME3 came out and I said I would, but I haven't. I'd get it for dirt cheap if I were you. Speaking of which, Zack, you don't think You'd enjoy Prototype 2? Truth to be told, I would've gotten it if I didn't choose Spider-Man and Lolipop Chainsaw back to back.

Been ~~playing~~ owning Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow for the last few days. Even got the Claimh Solais and am working toward the true ending.

It's Tara Strong indeed; and the funny thing about her voicing Juliet is that it's almost the exact Rikku tone. When she did Harley Quinn in Batman and even X-23 in Marvel VS capcom 3 she changed the tone quite a bit to suit the character, but as Juliet, as I have stated in my previous post, it's Rikku with provocative and obscene vocabulary.

Still playing the game; sadly it's short and I'm on the 3rd to the last level. While the game offers no real challenge, it does have its off the wall points of some stages which throws off my momentum a bit.

@Erel--no didn't really care about prototype 2. Too much of a sandbox, just run around type of game to me. I don't think it has any real direction, and I never played the first so.....ya

by Claire Thu Jun 14, 2012 3:22 pm

Prototype is played much like Infamous according to a game critic I watched. Story-wise, though, it's completely different.

Just got Dawn of Sorrow, sequel to Aria of Sorrow, which I'm gonna finish quickly so I can use my shiny, new DS. Very Happy

^can't say on Infamous, as it is a sony exclusive, I have never played it. Oh well, I just bought NBA 2k11 to keep me busy for a while

Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations
combat is pretty smooth, and the story is really nice, but the games requires further balancing tweaks to stop it from being so broken.

by Erel Fri Jun 15, 2012 9:46 pm

@Zack: The thing is bro, You played Arkham City and that is a sandbox game. And truth to be told, the whole statement of 'no direction' in regards to sandbox games is almost a vague comment because it does have a direction, one can just choose to take different forks on the road. Think of it like Skyrim. That is a sandbox game in a sense with heavy RPG elements.

Still playing Lolipop Chainsaw.

by Claire Sun Jun 17, 2012 10:47 am

Getting back on to Donkey Kong Country Returns whilst also playing the Last Story and Pandora's Tower. (enjoying Pandora's Tower a lot more then The Last Story)

Dirge of Cerberus, surprisingly. Never thought I'd find myself once again addicted to this game...but, I need those fuckin memory capsules.

by Archangel Wed Jun 20, 2012 8:07 am

I loved Dirge of Cerberus...too bad it got so much hate

by Darkness Phoenix Wed Jun 20, 2012 4:13 pm

^ I loved it as well but I gotta say that I enjoyed the story a bit more than the actual gameplay.

by Claire Wed Jun 20, 2012 6:25 pm

It's interesting in gameplay, and once you play it for a while, it becomes as easy as breathing.

Something I found weird, though, is that the beginning feels much harder than the later parts of the game. O_o I was getting S ranks all through the last 3 or 4 chapters, but I was getting Bs and Cs all throughout the first few. Probably cause I spent gil accordingly on mostly items and upgraded the only items I needed and always got EXP at the end of chapters. :/

by Archangel Thu Jun 21, 2012 12:37 pm

not to mention I enjoyed the music as well from Gackjt or however you spell his name

by Erel Fri Jun 22, 2012 12:49 am

Skyrim. So close to getting Lego Batman 2 (don't judge. lol) But I'm getting Spider-Man tues and that would be spoiling myself too much.

by Archangel Fri Jun 22, 2012 9:18 am

@Erel--I can just see you playing lego batman in your onesie pajamas, lol

by Erel Fri Jun 22, 2012 11:36 am

Oh shut up. lol. My wife and I were going to play it together since she isn't a big gamer but wants to spend some time in that avenue with me. I bought her lego Harry Potter since she is a big fan of that series (Books, movie, etc.) so... yeah. Wait, why am I explaining this to you? lol.

by Archangel Fri Jun 22, 2012 12:16 pm

Hell I wish my wife played games with me. All I can get her to play is Mario Bros Wii or Wii Sports

by The Cap'n Fri Jun 22, 2012 6:21 pm

Was playing Ratchet and Clank for a while.

Everything else is the same. Some Skyrim, GTA4 and Persona 3

Close enough, his name is Gackt. In case you didn't know, he guest starred in the secret ending in the live-action/CGI clip "G". Then we get the horrible dub from Robin Atkin Downes. >_> He's never fouled something up like that before...
