Why? Have some junior psychology to run on my choice of gaming? Or are you going to flip out over another joke?

BTW, RE:UC is annoying. My friend and I are tearing through it in co-op, then we hit the end of RE3 and we can't continue to the last chapter. Game requires you to unlock and complete a couple of the submissions, which are single player only, in order to progress. Talk about a buzzkill.

Beginnings 1   Beat Train Derailment 3
Beginnings 2   Beat Beginnings 1 with an A rank or higher

Dark Legacy 1   Complete Fall Of Umbrella 3
Dark Legacy 2   Complete Death's Door and Nightmare 2
Death's Door   Beat Raccoon's Destruction 3 with an A rank
Fourth Survivor   Complete Dark Legacy 2
Nightmare 1   Complete Mansion Incident 1
Nightmare 2   Beat Nightmare 1 with an A rank or higher
Rebirth 1   Beat Mansion Incident 3
Rebirth 2   Beat Rebirth 1


What a mess. I don't have much desire to play the game 1P, either.


Not as bad as I thought:

>>> Must have finished both Beginnings 2 and Rebirth 2 as well as Raccoon's <<<
>>                  Destruction 3 to unlock this chapter.                    <<

I have only had it one player - but I haven't really played it beyond the first scenairo because I am onto other things....

I liked what I played tho....the Wii zapper thing with the speaker/sounds and the rumble really adds a bit to it.

Not many arcade guns have speaker and rumble.

Title: Re: Its the weekend - whatchu playin?
Post by: AdmiralViscen on January 25, 2008, 10:22:37 PM
It's more fun with 2. The later levels are more interesting, but the zombies take like 20 pistol shots to bring down. Maybe they just double health for two people.

Haven't used the Zapper at all.

Omega Five - If I can't beat drohne's score, then I'll at least beat hyp's this weekend.
Call of Duty 4 - I got addicted to multiplayer again. My aim has improved a bit.
Phoenix Wright 3 - I wanna beat the final case before I start on any other DS games.
Super Mario Galaxy - I play this little by little everyday. I only have about 55 stars.

Played a bunch of Virtua Fighter 5 and Halo 3 on 360 last night.  Was about to finally go back to Mass Effect, but then a buddy popped on in Halo so I ended up playing even more death match.  Couldn't get into the vehicular manslaughter groove this time around, although I did manage to splatter three guys at the same time on a ghost in one match.   :lol 

Tried the Devil May Cry 4 demo on PS3 and really enjoyed it.  Enough to the point that I wanted to go and start DMC3!  I also tried the 360 demo and it seemed to be virtually the same to me, L-O-L at fanboys trying to call out a superior version.

I've been playing Phoenix Wright 3 every night and am getting very close to the end of the game.  I just want to make sure I finish it before Apollo Justice is released.  It looks like I'll be done in a day or two anyway.  Then I might try Birdman.

Today it's COLD AS FUCK here, so I'm going to head out to an arcade for a while with a friend and see what's going on.  Virtua Fighter 5 Version D should be out now.

Just finished Knytt Stories today and several of the added levels
Turrican 1, 2, 3 and T2002-first time playing them, why aren't these games more recognized???
Hurrican-a free badasss tribute to Turrican
Cave Story-Pure awesome so far
Omega Five-will finally sit down and attempt to push my score up in the ranks
Half Life Episode 2 -was put on hold while I was doing a Turrican runthrough
and maybe I'll start Temple of Apshai once I finish Episode 2

Tried UT3 on the PS3 earlier this morning....quit out of boredom.  I had no idea that they took out Assault in this version.  That's the best mode in UT for christ's sake and now it's gone.  UT3 feels about as underdeveloped as UT2003.  UT2004 kicks the crap out of UT3.

Also playing Pixel Junk Monsters.....omg.....I <3 this thing.  Hard as holy hell but it's never been completely frustrating and the music is really quite nice even if the mission select song (the one that's going while the world map is displayed) sounds like a direct rip from Katamari.  Best game on PSN, imo.

And I'm also kicking the tires on Undertow on XBLA.  Free game and all.  I'm really liking it better than I thought I would and graphically it's pretty damn nice.

Ended up playing KOF Maximum Impact Regulation A and a little bit of Tekken 6 at the arcade yesterday.  No update for VF5 yet.  My friend played Chase H.Q. 2, which just looked like ass.  I like cel-shaded games, but this game looked like it was an average Dreamcast title or something.  What happened?

Then it was more Halo 3 and VF5 on 360.  I think today I'm going to FINALLY get back to Mass Effect...it's been like two months now.

My weekend consisted of

* Portal Challenges - 15/18 Golds... very frustrating now, nearing my limit
* Call of Duty 4 - at "Shock and Awe", stuck at the part where you meet up with the downed marines
* No More Heroes - Killed Shinobu, batteries died, have no spares

Post by: bork on January 27, 2008, 07:16:05 AM
I just played some Halo 3 and I think I had my best game ever.  It was a ranked team slayer game, and one team member quit before the match started.  So there was three of us versus four of them, and I OWNED with 21 kills, dominating the match.  The match was a nice mix of ghost splattering, sniping, and melee.  I felt good.

Then in the next match, it starts off on a level with a ghost.  I got for it only to hear a guy behind me yell "DON'T YOU FUCKING TAKE MY GHOST YOU MOTHERFUCKER!!!!"  But I got it before he did.  He continues with "YOU FUCKER" and climbs into a warthog by himself.  I turn around and start firing at him.  "STOP IT YOU FUCKER!!",  he retorts.  So I go on my way and the guy is STILL insulting me, so I decide to have some fun and just team kill him.  He's enraged and another guy, probably a friend of his, joins in with the same "STOP IT YOU MOTHER FUCKER!!!" ranting.  Then he tries to kill me, so I splattered him and this got me kicked from the match.  That was the first time I've ever team killed an annoying teenager in an online match in Halo 3, and it felt good.   :lol

So then I loaded up Mass Effect and keep getting my ass kicked at the save point I'm at. 

Also DCharlie was playing SHADOWRUN for a while.   :o  I thought that was shit?

i liked gliding down from up above - and pogo jumping off of enemy skulls with the shotgun.

the techniques were well balanced and made the team roles fun.

Post by: Hitler Stole My Potato on January 27, 2008, 12:08:22 PM
Shadowrun, despite all the hate, kicks a lot of ass.  It's really a well designed console fps.  The only real problem with it (and it's a killer) is the complete lack of content.  If they would've been able to add 3 times the ammount of maps and threw in a couple other modes, imo it would've been one of the better fps released last year.
