Super Mario 3D Land

The missions were so fucking random from outerspace ala Gravity shooting terrorist astronauts to scuba diving shooting to Dog Attack unit espionage. At least, they got creative with it aside from drones and chopper attack unit missions! Call of Duty may be overrated but they surely stepped to the plate when it comes to making random missions aside from the typical nation vs nation world war scenarios alot.

Call of Duty multiplayer is certainly overrated, but I always have a blast with the campaign.

Been playing Skyrim for awhile now. Is it suppose to be really easy? I am an archer.

It can be very easy. If you level your skills right you can become pretty tough in no time at all. It all depends on your playstyle and how many diff skills you are leveling in. I went for stealth skills and the like at start and found myself becoming godly in no time.

You can always crank up the difficulty slider, though. It's really the thing to do.

Yeah that one chopper attack mission in the middle of the campaign was kinda annoying tbh. The multifaceted one towards the very end (the one where you switch perspectives with a lot more variety)was much more enjoyable. All in all I am actually thinking this is my favorite CoD campaign yet. Hope they do something with the teaser at the end.

^ It's like Mission Impossible's Ghost Protocol plotline.

And the best part was of course Eminem's COD theme song Survival..

Right now, I'm trying to finish this game called Enemy Front. It's like Wolfenstein minus the zombie/cyborg plotline. Instead, you play a Polish soldier in 1939's Blitzkrieg beginning of WWII.

Putting it to expert made it a lot more challenging. Especially not having Lydia at the very end against the dragons. Should have done that earlier in the game but oh well. 35 hours of time played Skyrim's main quest line is finished. Epic game, may do some of the other quest lines that I did not already do at a later time.

SHOVEL KNIGHT - Love it so much.

Well, the game still scales enemies to your character's level. Also, if you get the "Legendary Edition" on disc or download that update the level 81 cap vanishes entirely and you can level your character up as much beyond that as you please.

Otherwise, you can still go into the options or settings menu and switch between the lowest difficulty (which I believe is "Very Easy" or somrthing like that) and the hardest ("Very Hard"?).

Also, just wrapped up TWAU Ep. 5.

Choices:



There was one last decision for players to make before you're brought to the stats screen and credits, which I won't spoil here but let's just say I've already checked the TTG "Community" message boards and there's already discussion in TWAU message boards there about whether it effectively means "THE END" or whether there will indeed be a Season 2. I'm hoping for the latter as I believe the Ep. 5 conclusion leaves a lot of unanswered questions.

Was playing BL2 earlier, and even though I had to resort to a "trick" method, finally cleared the Torgue Tier 3 race mission and got around to clearing Tier 2 and 3 of the 12 O'Clock High battle with my 'Zerker and got the "Motorhead" achievement unlock.

Sitting on a pretty solid 1575/1625G now for it.

I am on to around 66 hours of play and I've hardly touched the main quest; focused on the minor quests and levelling up my character for the inevitable showdown at the end.

I am up to level 100 destruction with master spells; lightening storm spell is bad arse.

(Christ, I am so sad.)

No, you are not El Vaq. I don't know if you've got the "Legendary" thing that allows you to level beyond 81 and take any skill you've maxed to 100 and go to the skills screen and reset it to 15, which also gives you back all your invested skill points in that tree back, but if not, it might be worth looking into.

I do have the Legendary edition. If I reset my destruction skill to 15, will that mean I will not be able to use the expert/master level spells or they will take a significant drain out of my magicka?

I think you still would because you'd still have enough magicka and whatever armour to use it. Pro-tip though, with alchemy and enchanting you can make it so spells use no magicka whatsoever.

Yep. A lot of the spells take so much magicka that it would've been impossible to use them otherwise...700+ magicka cost just because it's a Master level skill? UGH.

Dunno, I do know, however that any skill that's reset can be leveled back to 100, lather, rinse, repeat ad infinitum. So once you built your skill back up to Expert or Master level, at that point those skills should still cost the same as they did last time your skill was at 75 or 100 or whatever. Magicka costs do still decrease gradually with level gain.

I've sat around for hours taking one of the magic skills (Illusion, I think) and just spamming the fuck out of one of them. Forget which, but there's one or 2 that you don't actually have to be using in combat to level them up, and that doesn't just go for Illusion, I think Transmute in the Alteration school works like that too (converts Iron Ore -> Silver Ore and Silver Ore -> Gold Ore.)

Hope I helped at least a little.

Started Wolfenstein The New Order. It's fucking tits so far. Killing Nazi's has never been so satisfying. And I've killed hundreds of Nazis.

Total extreme wrestling 2013 -- current real world mod

Been playing alot of MMOFPS lately like this one:

<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/8g7abL63Ay0" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" width="560"></iframe>

Sure, the bugs are random but hey, there's just something satisfying of blasting terrorist babes in Lara Croft outfits. :p

Point Blank Revolution is the latest update to this 2008 version.. yes, it's CT all over again but with gun toting babes. lol.

Garena is a good website for these type of games.

And of course, I played the shit out of this one as well:

Sin & Punishment Star Successor
Batman Arkham Asylum

Didn't feel like finishing Separate Ways from Resident Evil 4.

Beat Super Mario 3D World and Bound by Flame.

I found Bound by Flame to be MUCH better than what most reviews have indicated. It isn't perfect, but it's like a 'B-movie' game, so I wasn't expecting it to be. Either way, I had a blast with it. It is also very hard.

Now I'm playing The Last of Us: Remastered. They took epic and made it epicer. Is that even a word? Who cares, it is now.

Rainbow moon/child of light/marvel avengers alliance

Getting some mileage out of my 3DS lately. Been playing Shovel Knight and just started Bravely Default.

Currently playing Titanfall again....and sucking tremendously at it.

Metal Gear Solid: Peacewalker, the most frustrating are the stealth missions. I'm still stuck on the 1st one after the tutorial because the camera angles really trolls my controls. When I press stick to the left, the cam goes right and vice versa and Snake dies too many times.. Yeah, I suck at stealth.. But sometimes, shooting is the best. :p

skyRIM

Dicking around a bit with Fez when not playing TLoU. Fez is.....mindboggling.

100% fez on ps4. Unlocks true stereoscopic 3d now instead of red/blue 3d. Pretty trippy.

But now I'm left wondering wtf is with the heart cubes in the 64 cube door room. Seems like there is no purpose other than the code to make it dissolve, but then what? Fuck this game messes with the brain.

i've been playing Dark Souls for about 8 months now and have not been able to make it out of Undead Burg like the first area

I didn't find Dark Souls as great as everyone makes it out to be. I definitely appreciate the difficulty, it is nice to have a challenge. The controls were pretty horrible though, everything felt incredibly clunky.

Dark Souls is incredible, it's not supposed to be all out action fluid hack and slash combo specials, you do pretty much have to "learn how to walk" though. I find the combat very satisfying, outside of Capra Demon it's never really unfair.

Pineview Drive. It's like Amnesia meets Dungeon Nightmares because you spend days unlocking doors and collecting notes. And the intro at the gates is so much like Outlast. It has 30 days all in all or 30 levels cos everytime you collect notes, you start a new day with new hauntings ranging from PSSSST voices coming out of nowhere or ghostly children swinging outside the backyard. O__O.

This game may cause sleepless nights to come.

Pineview Drive is Fucking Shit

the atmosphere with the abandoned mansion and thunderstorms made me shit bricks. I just needed to take a break from all the usual RPG/shooting games 3rd person genre for some cheap-ass jumpscares that's all.

Better yet, this game is like a Gone Home style of storyline but with the horror elements like that sitting clown or the pictures on the wall turning into ghosts! If you think the game is shit, how come I wasn't able to sleep last night when I'm still stuck on Day 7 on the mansion? Fuuck.

Five Nights At Freddy's. How the fuck do you survive this? I click on cams all the time. And night 1: I'm already game over. Do I need to close doors aside from "conserving" camera power usage?

Wwe super card on my ipad ,not bad lol kinda addicting

I'm 8 and 0. Thanks to my top guy Jey!

When I say Us y'all say O!

US

OHhhhhhhhhhhhh!

The streak is over at 10-1.

Finally playing Murdered: Soul Suspect. Say what you will about the gameplay (pretty bland adventure game style), the story, setting and atmosphere are incredible.

Shame the dev went under, but here's hoping someone makes a sequel with a bit more action and refined gameplay.

NES remix 2

Is it worth a purchase? It's going for about $60 in some stores (xbox one games are usually around $100 here in NZ)

^ It's like L.A. Noire except you're a ghost detective. :p

Might want to wait for it to come down a little more. The gameplay is relatively simple, just exploring and investigations. The story is what sets it apart. If a great story is a big draw for you, you might want to go ahead and pick it up.

BTW, where in NZ do you live? I'm gonna be moving from the states to Levin in a few months, finally. Might try and get a place in Waikanae or Paraparaumu after a bit.

Anyways, got the platinum for Murdered. Back to TLoU:Remastered and some Forza 5.

I figured its only going to get cheaper so might hold off a little longer, definitely want to pick it up at some point though. Most games are holding around the $90-$95 mark despite being out a while.

I live in Wellington, so really not far from where you're looking. What's bringing you over here?

I'm currently post game grinding in FFX HD so I can finally beat Penance, I think it's the only Final Fantasy super boss I never managed to kill. This is probably going to take up a ridiculous amount of time.

My wife is from there originally and her entire family is still there. Now that our son is old enough for school, we've reached the 'screw America' climax point. Sure parts of America are great, but I don't want him growing up in the hell hole where I'm from, and NZ is a much better office.

Speaking of Wellington, back in 2011 I spent a good chunk of town loitering around Public over on Courtenay. Also Macs brewery. So many great places to hang out around Courtenay place and the wharf.

I was in Public the other night actually, still a great place for a drink.

Anyway, I'm still working my way through the PP trails on Dead Rising 3, only got a couple of 'Created x weapon 50 times' left to do and then the ridiculous kill 100,000/200,000 zombies ones. Will probably get the DLC once I've completed them.

Tales of Symphonia

rbi baseball 2014

Finally beat Pineview Drive. The ending was a bit Inception-ish. I think the machine just more likely did a Silent Hill-ish inception plot twist on that one.. That red haired chick Linda's fucking hot though even as a ghost.

Diablo 3 on PS4

Been jumping back into Skyrim lately. Finally took my level 81 character to a slightly more respectable level 85 while just doing misc. shit for the Dawnguard, assassination contracts as Listener of the Dark Brotherhood, and random quests.

Vampires the masquerade bloodlines

Parasite Eve 2

Bought Murdered: Soul Suspect and Watchdogs for $100 online today for the both of them, should be getting into them in the next couple of days so will dive into them.

Reaper of Souls on XBone now and probably for a lonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng time.

I recently bought Europa Universalis IV; I'm not going to play it until next weekend, once my interviews are over.

Anybody here played it? Thoughts?

Never heard of it.

That's a steal for $100NZD, what with the price of games over there and what not. I was shocked at the prices when I first stepped foot into a Dick Smiths.

I typically don't enjoy too many 4x/strategy games, but I played it at a friends house and it was better than most games in the genre I've played. Not quite civilization level, though.

Finally beat TLoU: Remastered/Left Behind. Now I'm moving on to that new Wolfenstein game and Metro:Redux.

Never played either Metro game the first time around, so this is definitely a good deal for me.

Avoid Dick Smiths, Noel Leeming and Harvey Norman for games, far too expensive there. EB Games are better but still pricey compared to JB Hi-Fi and Mightyape.co.nz, that's where I buy all my games from. I think JB Hi-Fi only have one store in the Wellington area but Mightyape are amazing for delivery time.

Yeah I actually went to the JB Hi-Fi there. Didn't know you guys have EB Games, though.

I'll probably just end up going the digital route and using my NA PSN account. I'll just make sure to bring like 10TB worth of hard drives with me, lol.

Playing Wolfenstein: The New Order.

Holy shit this game is waaaaaay better than I expected it to be. Easily the best shooter single-player wise I've played in the last year.

And that's done. Time for some Metro: Redux

Beat Reaper of Souls with a monk this morning. Still not level 70 but soon. Adventure mode is fucking sweet and the reward system keeps things interesting by having the player go to random parts of the game. Haven't had a chance to play with rifts yet, but that will happen soon.

8 days later

Dota 2
Dota 2
and Dota 2

Pretty much exclusively. Already got 192 hours in the damn game.

Back on XBL after a few weeks. I'll now be able to play online in all the stuff I play online.

Gonna try (really) to return to GTAOnline. Ultra Street Fighter 4 before I retire, of course. Basically get my jollies before Destiny drops.

Never said I would "Play the campaign and quit" did I? Nor is it the last thing to do in the game.

Silly Destor.

Outlast,xb1

Started Murdered: Soul Suspect, a good story and really enjoying it so far even though the mechanics are slightly wonky.

Currently playing:
Sin & Punishment Star Successor
Monaco
Dishonored

Baring any sudden purchases, those are going to be the bulk of this month's playing.

FF XIII-2

FF X-2 HD

Velocity 2x.....it's magnificent.

Finished and 100% Murdered: Soul Suspect. Despite the poor/mixed review scores I really enjoyed it. Thought the ending was pretty good, not the best ever but good considering the story. Think of it like a slightly less well made, more liner version of LA Noire, if you were playing it with the main character dead.

Going to be starting Watch Dogs shortly.

Been playing a bit more Just Cause lately...picked up a whole bunch of race achievements and the ones for liberating 30 and then 45 of the Montano compounds to the Riojas.

Destiny

Going through Watch Dogs at the moment, hardly done any main missions, just been dicking around with side missions and collectables, Some of the privacy invasions are brutal.

Nothing
Can't bring myself to play video games

Forza horizon 2 demo and looking to try some d4 on xbo

Put about 4-5 hours into Fez since it was free. It's alright I guess, definitely not worth all the fuss. I was surprised at how little they actually did with the rotating gimmick, puzzle wise.

Wasteland 2.

It's not as much Fallout/Fallout 2 as it's Fallout Tactics.

Disappointing so far.

SSX for XBox.

It's kicking my behind, but I was always a fan.

I am playing Vanquish and I have no idea what is going on at all.

Dead Rising 3..

Super Ultra Dead Rising 3 arcade remix hyper whatever the hell to be exact

Borrowed the game from a friend and purchased the DLC...and its all ive played. Fun as shit.

Middle Earth:Shadows or Mordor

This game is awesome. so glad I bought it. Playing it earlier, and ended up being surrounded by 20 orcs, and 3 of the captains. Man that was a great battle, managed to kill one of the captains, few of the orcs but then had to retreat because my health was getting low. Only have done 2 missions but just exploring is amazing.

Highly Recommend this game.

Shovel Knight so good

and obvs Smash too
