What are you playing this weekend?
« on: April 24, 2009, 04:55:33 PM »
Thinking of playing a variety of games--Persona 3, Etrian Odyssey 2, Burnout Paradise, OutRun XBLA, MotorStorm: PR, RE5, Dead Space, Banjo: NB, and SFIV. 

Bit and pieces of each.

Work

Etrian Odyssey 2- Still on the 2nd Stratum.

Dark Spire- Characters at level 3 and just barely survived getting out of the basement.

Zelda Oracle of Seasons- Never played all the way through this so I'm thinking about booting it up this weekend.


Home

Outrun- Fun!

Street Fighter IV- CE mode is out and have been messing around with that. Not much different other than a new grading system and that you can't see who your opponent picks. Really wish there was lobbies though.

Fallout 3- Character is now at level 16 and I may just stop playing once I hit 20 and wait for the expansion.

mmm

I finished Deus Ex: Invisible War the other day, but I don't really have anything lined up yet. Maybe I'll go back to The Witcher or Drakensang.

Thanks. I stopped playing after I got out of the tutorial zone. Will put some real time into it later. It seems alot more social then WoW, so I'm hoping it's really fun. "New" MMO concepts excite me, like Huxley and Global Agenda(I REALLY WANT TO PLAY THIS).

Cart racing is like GripShift Lite. The last update they did put in an in-game video capture with direct Youtube upload, which is really cool.

Outrun Online - Trying to get the achievements for that heart mode and the 15 course time trial.

SF4 - I've been playing online more because of the update. My psycho powers have increased a bit. Only won one "tourney" so far. Watch my match! ;)

Street Fighter 4 - Blanka baybee 8)
I watched your match earlier today thanks to the new update. Play me one day, I hardly ever get to fight Blanka players.

Doing a second run of RE5, but it's not as engaging as the 2nd, 3rd or 4th RE4 playthroughs. I'll probably go back to Gears 2 later on. Hey Zero, if you're up around 1-2am EST we'll do some co-op.

ME is one of the few games where the achievements entice you to try everything. I love it because it can be played in short bursts. The first time through probably took 4-5 hours. But, I flew through the second run in probably less than 2 hours. Totally opened up the game too because I knew what to expect.

I love the color palette too. The contrast of the red and white looks so good. Everyone else notice that the greenery is white? I was talking about it with a buddy and he never did. Just wondering if its that easy to miss.

Street Fucker IV: I may be outta commission at the moment on Live due to my stupid-ass fuck-up, but I'm still getting my SF4 fix on PSN!  Championship mode is fun; like that it masks the character select, and so far, no droppers...even the ones with 1 or 2% didn't quit.  Maybe the message is getting through?

That's it so far.  Will probably play some Oboro Muramasa and maybe get back to Musou Orochi Z.  Deathsmiles is sitting here too and I might just go ahead and start playing it on my silver J360 account.

I think the user creation stuff was hyped up so much that the MM-designed stuff was unfairly neglected. I was pretty surprised by the quality of the story mode.

I've started playing Galaga Legions again.  It took forever for the game to "click" but I have had a ton of fun since I've gotten into it.  I don't think it's worth $10, but if anyone got it for $5 from the Amazon sale, they got a deal.

I got Guitar Hero Metallica from Gamefly yesterday.  I played though the guitar career and I'm doing drums next, and I noticed one hilarious thing: the guitar "gimmicks" – notes during sustains, tap notes – are detrimental to the gameplay, yet the gimmicks for drums – freeform fills, "sustains" – are beneficial.  This is Guitar Hero, tacked on drum gameplay shouldn't be better than the series' main focus.

Oh, and it has Queen, Master of Puppets, Welcome Home Sanitarium, Nothing Else Matters, The Unforgiven, a Thin Lizzy master track (lol Harmonix), etc.  Metallifacts and lyrics are pretty boss, too.

Wish Harmonix would release a lot of the Metallica tracks as DLC already, if only so I can enjoy them on guitar.  (Well, that and so I can play them after I'm finished with GHM, too.)

As a filthy American, the European geography is killing me. I can only get the Scandinavian countries and that one island with the funny accent.

The Music and Geography classes are new, and I've not done the Santa missions yet, but I don't recall them from the first game. I think I had a Santa outfit at one point though. Or that might have been a crappy sweater from Hopkins' mom.

As for myself, I'm lazing through some Saints Row 2, and suffering through the sloppy controls and bad camera of HULK (360). How come it's supposedly similar to Ultimate Destruction, but done so horribly wrong? What's different?

So I grabbed Left 4 Dead from Blockbuster, but some cock put Rise of The Argonauts behind it and I didn't see what I had taken until I got home. Played it for 2 hours and quit in disgust. Awful game.

Then I took it back and traded it for Silent Hill Homecoming since there weren't any actual copies of L4D there. No invert camera control? Are you fucking kidding me? Ugh.

I can't find a goddam thing to play.
