Samus' awesomness got a big slap to the face this game, making her look like an emotional little whore.

Yeah, despite all the negative stuff said about the game before it was released I went into it with an open mind and it failed pretty big when it came to both the gameplay and the story.


Anyway, after 100 years I've been playing Parasite Eve lately. Going to follow it up with Parasite Eve 2 of course.

There's another Parasite Eve coming for the PSP as well.

The 3rd Birthday, yeah I know. Not sure if I'll play it or not though as I don't even own a PSP.

YOU MUST. It looks completely badass. It's more of a spin off tho.

Completed:

MegaMan Legends 2

I can understand a little more why people wanted some more extrapolation on this subseries of MegaMan. It looks to tie in somehow in the far distant future to the plot outlined in X and the Zero series, but I can't say for certain since I haven't 100% finished those or played the new ZX ones. On top of that, the characters are memorable enough to want to see in another game (which I suppose is why they have been via the Marvel VS. Capcom stuff). Glad I went ahead and recommended in the other thread despite not finishing it yet.

Half-Life: Blue Shift

I'm starting to understand the story of this series a little more as I play each of these "episodes". Initially, I was about ready to write it off as just another "OMG Zombies" game, but I'll admit that assumption was wrong. On the other hand, having played it so late after it's release, I don't think I'm truly able to appreciate the gem it was. Much like various SNES RPGs get blown off by newcomers since they can't see what made them great for their time. To me, interesting sure, but not really worth replaying.

Now, probably going to work on Opposing Force and Suikoden II. Then get after all the other stuff I had mentioned before. Also willing to throw Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance into the fray, but I'd like to know if there's any benefit; story or otherwise, for not letting characters die in that game. I shouldn't have TOO much difficulty beating the game, but after 6 or so chapters, I lost the main character's best friend and that made me kinda worried.

Yeah, it looks interesting for a whatever it is since it has an older Aya in it. But again, I don't own a PSP.

Brofist for Megaman Legends.

Sonic unleashed COMPLETE

The game was allright, I felt that the speed stages had no errors other than few minor glitches but the overall game was fine, I was dissapointed by the lack of "exploring" in the wii version, The overrall story was very nice following a light vs darkness plot however I felt that the game had some cartoon comedy moments, wich were just pointless or jsut plain stupid

Next up

* Proffesor layton and the unwound future
* Rune factory 3
* Super robot wars W

One word about the final boss in Terra's story in BBS: JESUS. CHRIST. A METEOR SHOWER INDEED.

Other than that, still doing some grindan in maple and looking through the recommendation thread for anything I might be interested in.

I'm glad the thread is serving its purpose.

Let's see:

Got Other M last week. I like the gameplay, but the game feels way too short(not even 20 hours in and I'm over 50% item completion without even really trying).

Also decided to get a few games for my DS: (Roms, that is.)
-The World ends with you
-Ninja Gaiden Dragon Sword
-Worms Open Warfare 2
-Ragnarok DS
-N+

Only really played Ninja Gaiden and The world ends with you so far.

And I'm still wishing to get a PSP and BBS out of nowhere (because that's the only way I'll be able to get one right now). Also found out about KH - Re:Coded today. Which I'm probably not going to buy though, unless I happen to find a goldmine under my house or something like that. *goes to the recommendation thread for more DS games*

Partially, yes. I'm at 70.53% at the moment. Here's what I've done so far:

1. 47/50 achievements (missing the experienced/hardcore difficulty achievements and the "complete 49 faction missions" achievement)
2. Gotten every single faction item. Yep, all 300 of them.
3. Assassinated every colonel
4. Discovered every location
5. Destroyed 50/50 wind turbines
6. Destroyed 10/10 offshore rigs
7. Driven every single vehicle the game offers

And tons of other things I can't think of off the top of my head. The worst part about this 100% thing is going to be the 2700 resource items. Just....yeah. It's gonna take me a while to get 100%. >_>

Just finished Parasite Eve. I really enjoyed it overall. The story was really nice, the battles were a little annoying at times but they were okay, I really enjoyed the boss battles, and the music was really good also. (I love Opera music.)

Gonna do EX-Mode most likely a few times and then take on the CB before I move on to Parasite Eve 2.

Mine Crack.. I mean Minecraft

i am playing ,... Super Mario,...its nice game

Megaman Legends.

Bleh. Aqua is a wimp. That is all.

Megaman Volnutt is such a ladies man. Nearly every female in the game along with his sister and enemy show some form of attraction to him at some point in both games.

I just finished playing Recettear. It's a quirky indie Japanese PC game about running an item shop. You play as a little girl whose father ran off to be a typical nameless RPG hero and left her behind to pay off a huge debt, which you manage with the help of your loan collector fairy. As you'd expect, a large part of the game is buying low and selling high, but you can also pay adventurers to go dungeon crawling in search of rare items. It's a creative concept, but it wouldn't be nearly as fun if 90% of the items you were buying and selling weren't equips and food that the adventurers can actually equip and use. The game itself is pretty short and only takes about 10 hours to beat, but the massive item library and the existence of several gigantic dungeons that aren't even possible to reach by the time you pay off the debt lends themselves to a massive post-game. I've put more than 40 hours of playtime into it already, and I'm still missing the final adventurer, and I haven't even set foot in the last two dungeons. There's also a survival mode, which could consume a lot more time.

My biggest complaint about the game would be that the postgame doesn't really have anything to do with making money anymore. Some of the best items sell for hundreds of thousands of "pix," but there isn't really any point to selling them. The total debt you have to pay off for the main game is less than a million, and I'm at the point where I can just open store for a 2-3 days and pay off the entire debt, payment schedule be damned. There's no additional challenge in the postgame. This wouldn't be nearly as troublesome if the adventuring portion of the game was a little less bland. Sure, you get more skills and fight harder bosses, but the vast majority of dungeon crawling is still wading your way through the same recolored monsters for a couple dozen floors. Also, the (arguably) best character in the game is available in the first couple of days, which is kind of dumb.

Also, the title theme sounds pleasant, but I hated the actual song that played at the end. That voice sucks.

Overall, I'd still say this is an awesome game for anyone who likes non-mainstream and strategy games. At least try playing through the main game.

Right now i'm playing:

Minecraft, MUST DIG AND BUILD MORE. Can't get enough of it.

League of legends, awesome when i can get a premade with some mates on skype.

And ofcourse, maplestory, 7 levels left till i'm done.
