I should go back to punch-out. Whether it's the NES or SNES version, Sandman always dropped my ass.

Fignuts 01-24-2014 01:13 AM

Might try to beat Castlevania.

ClockShot 01-25-2014 06:27 PM

Finished Killzone: Shadow Fall. Contemplating going through a couple more times. Once on hard, the other on easy to get the never die trophy. And to mop up any single player trophies I might have missed.


Although, I might jump back on PS3 and finish up Castlevania: Lord of Shadow and Mafia 2 trophies. Again, just to grab some stragglers I missed and get a couple quick platinums.

And then there's Thief: Deadly Shadows.......

Yeah, your best bet would've probably been to get the Season Pass and redeeming it once all 5 chapters are available...downloading each chapter separately will run you ≈ U.S.$10 more than the U.S.$14.99 you'd otherwise be spending.

SlickyTrickyDamon 01-26-2014 03:17 PM

Money not the issue just want to play the whole thing.

So instead of purchasing a Season Pass, you're buying each chapter separately. Wise move. :y:

Games Beaten in 2014:

Dead Rising 3- reach maximum level- 9.5/10

AC IV: Black Flag 8.5/10

Ryse: Son of Rome- 6.5/10



All I have left for the Xbox One is Call of Duty: Ghosts, but I think this is my last go round with Call of Duty, no one is on from my past to play with. My sons play it more now, that's good for them I guess.

AC IV: Black Flag was real good, repetitive at times, but I felt comfortable knowing that I didn't have to do the main story all the time, there is other stuff to explore.

I honestly don't know what I'm going to start now, I should finish Dishonored and Heavy Rain if I see fit to go back in time to past-Gen stuff.

DAMN iNATOR 01-31-2014 08:47 PM

Giving The Walking Dead: 400 Days a whirl...got $5 MS Currency @ GameStop, but it had been so long since I downloaded anything I forgot that apparently I had 1600 MS Points, so it was converted to $20 MSC. I also went ahead and downloaded the first episode of The Wolf Among Us.

ClockShot 02-02-2014 08:04 PM

Platinum'd Mafia 2. Back at Lords of Shadow.

whiteyford 02-03-2014 01:44 AM

Pokémon X because I got stuck on AO after an hour and threw a strop.

Fignuts 02-03-2014 04:51 AM

Metal Gear Rising was good.

The Gameplay is great, albeit not for everyone with it's no blocking/counter only system. Outside of the gameplay though, there were a lot of flaws. Camera is ass. Extremely generic backgrounds.

Game had very weird transitions from serious plot to over the top comedy. Like one minute Raiden is wearing a sombrero and poncho in Mexico, the next they're talking about harvesting the organs of children. Just wtf.

The last boss is just assinine. Just ridiculously absurd saturday morning cartoon villain, in a game that treated the rest of it's villains much more seriously. This character is the last boss, despite the fact the he barely appears in the game before the fight, and despite the fact that Sam has more character development and more of a connection with Raiden.

But like I said, the gameplay is still pretty awesome, and that's the most important part. Good stuff.

Dunno what I'm gonna do next. Kinda want to play the FF 13 games, even though I know I probably won't like the first one. Never been able to just read a wiki on a game to prep for the sequel. I have to actually play it. It's the completist in me.

OssMan 02-05-2014 10:13 AM

I "bought into" FF13 and was able to play it the full way through even though it sucked. I started playing the sequel a few weeks ago and it felt honestly dreadful

Lock Jaw 02-05-2014 05:45 PM

Just beat the Back to the Future Telltale games. I had played Episode 1 and 2 way back when they came out, but then couldn't play 3 and on because I had to update my OS. Which I didn't do until only recently. Thus, I went ahead and now have played through them all.

I think it kinda falls apart after the 2nd episode. Just becomes way too convoluted, confusing, and "paradoxy". Still was "enjoyable" and also "good" to hear Christopher Lloyd's voice.

Emperor Smeat 02-05-2014 07:46 PM

Games beaten in 2014:
New Super Mario Bros Wii
Grand Theft Auto V

Besides some small nitpicks, ended up really enjoying the game.

SNOW WHITE LIVES!!! And Ichabod Crane is a fucking pedophile for her!!

Sepholio 02-06-2014 03:49 PM

Playing Outlast.

On a related topic, I need to go buy some more underroos.

Lock Jaw 02-08-2014 12:30 AM

I love Fables, so now after finishing Back to the Future, I am playing the first episode of The Wolf Among Us.

I really like the graphics/art, but I don't know man... I'm like an hour or so in and it just feels like a giant cutscene. Barely any "game playing" going on. Feel like I would much rather just read the story in comic book form. A choose your own adventure comic book.

I will say that the fight at the beginning caught me off guard, though. Was not prepared for that game mechanic and was like "what the? Oh sh*t!". Took me a bit to catch on.

SlickyTrickyDamon 02-08-2014 06:36 AM

Playing Zelda 1.

ClockShot 02-12-2014 10:05 AM

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow - Platinum'd!


Downloaded the demo for Lords of Shadow 2 yesterday. Probably take that for a spin later today. But I now have about a 1.5 week lull in gaming until the new stuff arrives. Back to Killzone: Shadowfall, I suppose.

Somehow I defeated every boss from Level 1-5 and got every heart container extra and still don't have enough for the 3rd sword (12.)

I should have 13 but I have like 10.

Bobholly138 02-21-2014 03:02 AM

I am alternating between the following.

Toejam and Earl-got a Genesis emulator on my Dreamcast.
Chrono Trigger-Got the great DS port of this. Trying to get all the endings.
Swordquest Waterworld-Never beat this game back when I was a kid. So been trying to beat it now without using walkthroughs or FAQs.
Rally X-One of my all time favorite arcade games. It would have been bigger but it has the misfortune of coming out at the same time as Pac-man.Been playing it on MAME.

Heisenberg 02-21-2014 01:19 PM

Fallout 3: Mainly heel run, but put over Megaton as a plan to kill them off later plus DLC will be played through if I get time

Purgatory 02-21-2014 02:19 PM

Yeah, I thought I'd wait and take out Megaton later on too. Since I took such a long break from it then dived back in, I had forgotten that I disabled the nuke and couldn't do it. I then just continued with the story, finished it, then found it wouldn't let me continue exploring places I hadnt yet.

Probably should created a new save slot just before the final Citadel stuff:( Gonna have to play through completely again.


Games I'm working on:

360

FarCry 3
Fallout New Vegas
Forza 4
AC Revelations


Xbox One

Forza 5
Dead Rising 3 (hate the time limit. I wanna just kill everything and rank as high as possible before tackling any of the Psychopaths.)

ClockShot 02-21-2014 06:51 PM

Bought Strider off the PSN marketplace. It's fun.

Make time for all the DLC except Mothership Zeta which is crap.

Fignuts 02-22-2014 05:05 AM

Brothers- 9/10

Phenomenal. I advise everyone to try it out. I only took a point off because it's a little on the short side, and there isn't much replay value.

But damn. It really says something when a little indie game like this, that doesn't even use an actual language, tells a way better story than all these multi million dollar big publisher games. Seriously, this one will stick with you for a while. The puzzles are all fun to solve too.

GET IT

ClockShot 02-25-2014 07:00 AM

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 and Thief drop today and both aren't getting the reviews I expect. Kinda worried now. I'll be picking both up today and playing something.

More to come later.

DaveBrawl 02-25-2014 08:23 AM

My girlfriend told me to hook my 360 up to a computer monitor, can't believe I hadn't thought of that before. So now that I have that back working I'll be starting on the last 2 Arkham games, Fallout 3, Dragon Age 2 and eventually Oblivion.

road doggy dogg 02-25-2014 03:11 PM

360 hooked up to a computer monitor? I think you're doing it entirely backwards.

DaveBrawl 02-25-2014 10:42 PM

It wouldn't be the first time, I prefer to do things the hard way. It builds character.

Was going to get Castlevania as soon as it came out but I'm a little hesitant based on the reviews too. Will probably wait till the price drops before getting it.

ClockShot 02-26-2014 11:28 AM

Played Thief at my buddy's house yesterday. It's fun. Got an open world kind of scheme to it. But the controls are kind of wonky. It'll take some getting used to.

Side note. Had the strategy guide on order from amazon for about a month and it never showed up. I checked this morning and it was already on back order. Complained to customer service and they gave me $10 off my next order. Canceled it and went to Gamestop and grabbed the only one they had.


Dunno if this is a good or bad thing in gaming these days.

LoDownM 02-26-2014 07:24 PM

Beat Valkyrie Profile for the first time in 10 years. Still love the hell outta that game.

God of War: Ascension
Bully ($2.49 FTW)
Metal Gear Solid
Metal Gear Solid 2
Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker

Assassin's Creed. Not yet beaten..

But I finished with Medal of Honor (2010 version).

DAMN iNATOR 02-28-2014 01:54 PM

Gonna try Shadow of the Colossus for PS2 for the first time ever later on today methinks.

Now if I could just find someplace around here that had a copy of Ico...

Ermaximus 02-28-2014 02:32 PM

Dead Rising 3, every Sunday.

Resident Evil 4 HD on Professional with just a knife and flash bangs. Sell everything else I find aside from health items. Stuck at the part with two El Gigante's at the moment though. Might have to rethink this.
