Oh god gaming has once again become a burden. What to play?! I have movies to watch you know! All my plans ruined!

10 hours in, halfway through. The game does get crazy easy about 1/3rd of the way through. Even when a boss is tough to take down you can totally abuse SP Charge's long cast time and the fact that you can get hit while casting. So you basically can just stall till your friends are revived auto. Fun enough game, but Summon Night 2 on GBA had characters that were more fun. I still prefer Children of Mana. I think a lot of the neat mechanics in Summon Night Twin Age are totally wasted - LIKE THE SUMMONING. Wtf is the point, youre OP anyway.

Favorite Disgaea to date? Seems so. Maybe even my favorite NIS game. They did so much right with this game its pretty fucking crazy.

Thanks to Disgaea 3 I only have 4 hours into this one. Realllly like what ive played so far.

12,000 more kills then I have all achievements. Not entirely sure this is going to happen this weekend. Tough choice: Play awesome new games or spend 3-4 hours grinding the same level in the same gundam with the same pilot.

Fun, going to TRY an online game with some friends this weekend. We will see.
-
worst games ever!
-
Let's see... currently at work I am playing:
- Exceed 6.2 for NT
- TOAD for Oracle 9.5
- MCP Explorer
- Notepad++
- Mantis Bug Tracker 0.18.2
:-\
Adobe Flex 3 here..
-
3 day weekend coming up guys. Be creative :(
-
YEAH!
-
Recently I've been loving Bionic Commando Rearmed. Holy shit Nintendo could print money if they would give me identical 8/16 bit gameplay with solid HD visuals and style. I would rebuy every game from my childhood if they were given the Rearmed treatment. I will not buy a rom, however. Anyway, I just beat level 6 last night finally, that area always gives me fits. Thank god the barrels don't hurt you!
Since the Olympics are over, I'll probably get back into Mass Effect and try and finish it. I just got past the Lunar mission, so I've made significant progress.
edit: I don't think I have a 3 day weekend though :'(
-
MOH: Heroes 2 - I still can't get over how good the fps waggle controls are for this game. I can see the possibilities of an MS or PS3 Wagglestick for fps games now, if they don't just do crap minigames with it (which of course they will, then abandon the tech when they realize crap waggle minigames without the word Nintendo on the box aren't going to sell)
Burnout Paradise PS3 - I got this so cheap I had to buy it. Now I own it for both systems. Sorta like the sixaxis steering.
Resident Evil Umbrella Chronicles - It's okay, like a shooting tour of all the RE games.
Mario Kart Wii - fuck you blue shells
Warhawk - yay jetpacks
-
Too Human-I just completed a second playthrough. I have a level 30 defender and berserker, if anyone wants to co-op, hit me up.
COD4-My brother is coming up on Sunday, and we always play multiplayer.
Metal Gear Acid-I have beat the first level after the tutorials, and its different. Not sure how long I'll be playing this one.
-
Psychonauts
And I am thinking if I should buy the Warhawk jetpack expansion or not.

I do have a three day weekend :-*

Party on Wayne

It is.
-
Should I not even bother with the first Acid and go straight to the second then, or is there some backstory that I need?
-
Just get the second one and wikipedia the story of the first
-
These games have bad stories for Metal Gear games. Just go to the second game.
-
I'm going to try to finish my 1st Madden 09 season. I'm 6-6 as the stock 49ers and I'm loving the game. Unlike Maddens of the past, I lose by making bad decisions not by an 80 yard bomb in the 2 minute drill by my opponent. Best Madden ever.
-
Wild Arms 3 and hopefully finishing up Panzer Dragoon Orta... my weekend plans booked fast, I am going to NYC today, and have BBQ's the next 3 days, so I probably won't get the hours upon hours of game time I need. Still plugging away at The World Ends With You on DS.
-
FOUR DAY WEEKEND!!

TALES OF VESPERIA
-
gonna purchase castle crashers and play that for the most part. next week it's IU!
-
Been playing a lot of DoD:Source this week, re-downloaded it and been enjoying it a great deal. :gun I'm going to LI tonight and coming back Saturday so maybe some CoH Sat. night or Sun. night. :punch
-
packin up the wii tonight to take to a friend's house for some wagglegun action on HotD and RE: UC
plus the inevitable minigame flailathon when everyone wants to play wii sports and wii play :(
-
Mostly Tales of Vesperia. I just got out of the requisite "travel through the sewers and fight rats" part. Glad that they got that out of the way early on.
Received my of Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter today (for a mere $7) so if I have some time I'll play some of that as well.
Brutal Mario- Thanks to a thread on that other forum I found this surprisingly decent romhack of Super Mario World. It's not nearly as tough as compared to Asshole Mario, in fact the difficulty at the moment is actually pretty balanced and the level design and boss fights are quite good. Here's a pic:
(http://i480.photobucket.com/albums/rr167/mappster71/Brutalmario-Somemorecustombossesflv.jpg)
Dragon Warrior III- Done with my Final Fantasy three white mage run and am now attempting a mage and warrior run on DW3.
and a bit of Bionic Commando: Rearmed and Castle Crashers on the side.
Not playing: Disgaea 3 :'(
-
team fortress 2 pc
I need 2 more achivements for heavy and medic to get their second unlocks
the medic unlocks seem impossible to get however
-
* Hoping for a Rainbow Six Vegas (1) partner for story co-op and t-hunt
* Doing Saints Row side missions to get 100% and put that aside
* Hoping the weekend is over so I can get my Infinite Undiscovery on
-
Oh shit, Warhawk patch is out? Of course PS3 won't connect to my network tonight, right?
Anywho, I just got done with N+ on PSP. I'm going to wrap up Stranglehold, maybe some PixelJunk Eden and Fable 1. And Warhawk and Bionic Commando if PS3 cooperates.
-
Castle Crashers, of course, with a little SCIV on the side. Is anyone else getting dropped connections for CC? :wtf
-
I finished Psychonauts, now I don't know if I should start something new before Mercs 2 or not.
-
oh god disgaea 3 owns my soul
good bye vesperia, i should never have succumbed to the allure until i had completed thee
-
Got Tales of Vesperia today and played until I finished up in Halure. It good.
I'm gonna download Castle Crashers soon.
-
Disgaea 3 is the best one yet
-
Man I encountered some hax on tf2 earlier,he was using some bs 100% headshot shit with the sniper class
oh and he could fire through walls/rocks
everyone was pissed off as fuck
-
I thought they had shit to manage hax..or were you on a non-ranked server?
-
it was a secure server like most say, VAC or something, I bought the game so no hacker servers for me
but yeah must be something new out there, cause he could also run like like twice the speed of a scout as a spy, it was crazy
-
Borys buy a damn next gen system already (aka buy a PS3).
I get Mercs 2 coming tommorrow hopefully. Playing Castle Crashers and also comparing Bionic Commando/Super Puzzle Fighter 2 on both 360/PS3 to see which one to buy. Initial impressions, 360 compressed audio is horse shit compared to uncompressed audio on PS3 through 5.1.
Finishing up my first NCAA online dynasty (great fun) and starting my Madden league. I'm also going to end up replaying FEAR on 360 since I can get the game for 10 bucks. Need to warm up before project origin is out!
Also getting my PC fully functional this weekend so I can finish Bioshock.
-
lame, probably not that common --yet

:bow PC Gaming :bow2
I still need to get NWN2.
-
Its pretty great, I heard the expansion is hard. I have the expansion just havent bothered yet lulz titan quest
-
Reading about Storm of Zehir has got me in the mood for some more NWN2.
-
Been playing the PSP/DS versions of N+.
It's been a looong time since I've played a Suikoden game (since V came out), so I think I might replay the series starting this weekend.
-
What do you think of them Tucah? I'm not very imrpessed by the PSP version.
-

:rofl
Doesn't matter how good the audio is - I would still embarrass you
-

Well, I've never played the PC version or the 360 version, but I think they're pretty fun. I'm assuming they're easier than the previous versions, because I'm not having much trouble at all. I prefer the PSP version over the DS version, it's a bit harder (there were a few levels that gave me a bit of trouble on the PSP version, but the DS one was pretty easy) and the larger screen helps the game a lot. I like that it's a pure platformer, where you really do nothing but jump around on platforms.
The 360 one has different levels than these? If so, I think I might get that pretty soon.
-
my friend shared bionic commando to me so i'll probably play some of that

Yup. I played almost all the PSP levels and I don't think any are clones of the 360 levels, although some of them are similar concepts watered down.
Definitely get the 360 version, it's way harder and also offers a co op campaign, and the DLC is only $2.
-
playing NG2, doing dragon sword achievement and testing new patch.
-
Tiger Woods '09 and FEAR on 360. For some reason I've become a wuss. So few good FPSs have come out that I've lost my touch. I get motion sickness now :-\
-
Mario Kart DS

Im stuck on the slums in Fear 360, the first Mech encounter demands quicksave :*(
-
Xbox Riddick :rock

Did you restart the level? I think that's what you are going to have to do.
Then you can look forward to barely surviving the fight, having no medkits left, hitting a checkpoint, then dying repeatedly for 30 minutes.
-
I know there's a second mech in the slums too, saw it in the intro video clips :(
-
i have to admit, wii sports is pretty fun with four people playing
mario kart was okay, but one of my friends plays that shit entirely too much, she was lapping everyone else
RE: UC is fun with two people
i think one of them wants to buy a wii now (the one who was buying a 360 when the price drop hits), i told him to think about it after he sobered up
-
You have to play RE:UC with 2 people in order to unlock everything, which is stupid as fuck
-
that is indeed pretty stupid
i'm ready for more light gun arcade shooters
also, she brought metroid prime 3 and everyone was all "what the fuck is this shit put the bowling game back in" lol
-
Tales of Vesperia. Why the hell was this game so hard to find? I had to go to 4 different stores before I was able to find a copy. I don't think Best Buy has any plans of even stocking it. Does Gamestop have some sort of exclusivity on this or something?
Anyway, I just started it.
-
Naruto Rise of a Ninja - not epic, but not bad, either. My OCD gets me chasing Ancient Coins instead of starting missions.
Crackdown - a friend and I are going to clear the Psycho level time trials for major Achievement Whorage (140 GP, IIRC).
-
Mario Kart DS
Correction... Halo: Combat Evolved
-
Mercs 2.
I want to try co-op later on.
-
I ended up just playing Peggle most of the weekend.
-
well, i've been inadvertently helping to destroy gaming all weekend, seems like
another friend came into town last night and we played wii games
he's getting one "for his kids" now
so that's two i've sold
-

:punch I'm a super puzzle fighter 2 champion I could take you! :punch
-
i don't understand why they would make mario kart such a cheap piece of shit in the 100cc and above races
it's bound to frustrate children and make them cry
i thought nintendo was all about the kids, everybody wins, and all that shit
nintendo = child abuse
-
Mario Kart Wii is probably the most unfair one yet, the Mirror levels are completely atrocious.
I got golds in everything through 150cc IIRC, but I couldn't even bring myself to finish some of the Mirrors.
-
Correction... Halo: Combat Evolved
The great journey continues with Halo 2.
-
disgaea 3
so awesome
-
Not much time for gaming this weekend. Ended up playing some Super Robot Wars A Portable on the PSP, and some Pain and Rock Band on the PS3.
-
finally got NOLF2 fixed and running and then proceeded to beat it in one sitting.
i was playing wow, but ugh. after playing Conan and WAR, there are some annoying design choices that I have to go back and deal with.
Collect Quests are the bane of my fucking existence
-
Got a PSP this weekend and picked up Wipeout Pure and Hot Shots Golf cheaply while waiting for my Pandora battery and 8 gig mem stick and I LOVE those two games omg.
Also played like an hour of Rock Band. Don't have much interest in it until RB2 comes out, though.
-
Beat Act I in Neverwinter Nights 2, now MURDER MOST FOWL!
-

I'm very-extremely-likely moving back to the States by early next year. Gonna live with my folks while my wife goes to an ESL school and I go back to school. Anyway point being that my father is telling me about an upstairs room that my folks redid into a living room. "Yeah, there's a 32" HDTV you can use, a new 20" iMac, and a Wii." I froze on that last part. :o Guess they must have really liked Wii Sports, holy shit.

whoa hey vesperia all day
