Dark-Slicer Diago 03-01-2011 10:11 AM

For almost a week now I went back to playing Tyrian2000 since I got bored with WoW and SvR '11.

NoJabbaNoBogRoll 03-01-2011 10:15 AM

Fallout: New Vegas

Very impressed so far, despite the graphics not really improving since the last game.

Over halfway through Okami. After that's done, barring any complications, I will finally start Fallout 3.

Still working through Persona 2: Eternal Punishment, but I imagine I will be taking that game hella slow.

Okami is amazing. I'm stuck on one part close to the end. I have to guide someone through one of those side scrolling mazes using the brush techniques, but it just won't work in a few parts. I have no issues using them in the main game. I've tried and tried and tried and it just won't register or do what it's supposed to do. It's annoying because I know I'm close to the end.

I started Assassin's Creed and so far it's not as good as I thought it would be. It's still pretty fun though. i think I'm about halfway done.

Boomer 03-01-2011 11:55 AM

I'm certainly enjoying it; its Zelda roots are obvious, though the world feels a bit empty to me overall. These "small towns" just seem a little too sparse for me. Dungeons are split up in some interesting ways, but I don't like how every battle takes place in a battle area and creatures aren't seen roaming the halls.

I am most surprised by the amount of humor it has. Would be a good game for kids if they could handle the brush techniques.

I finished it...to it sort of felt like DLC, and I HATE saying that since I dropped 60 on it. I enjoyed the story, but it just felt like DLC, next installment will need a dramatic makeover for me to even YouTube it let alone buy it...

The Persona series is a clear definition of a J-RPG. I like to play series in their entirety, which is really the only reason I've been playing through the earlier ones. You might like it, but I couldn't say for sure. The plot-lines are crazy, and the game is about fucking high school students, so proceed with caution. The series is best known for letting you talk your way out of a fight by socializing with the demons - its pretty bananas. Persona 1 and both parts of Persona 2 are PS1, and Persona 3 and 4 (the better games of the series, from what I've heard) are on the PS2.

As for PS1 RPGs, Xenogears and Final Fantasy Tactics are the first obvious ones that aren't on your list. I've always heard good things about Suikoden and the Grandia series, but haven't played them myself. I know Assman plays old RPGs all the time, he might be more opinionated.

Next Big Thing 03-02-2011 09:20 AM

Alan Wake. Love this game. Great storyline, great game play.

Looking forward to getting to my copy at some point. So so backlogged right now that I have no hope in sight of playing it any time soon.

OssMan 03-02-2011 08:14 PM

I never played Persona at all. It is supposed to be really good, especially I think Persona 3 but like you I like to play series in their entirety but have strayed away from the series because they are so hard to come by. The first Suikoden is fucking terrible, but if you like Secret of Mana you will probably like it because you like shitty RPGs with no plot or memorable characters and no direction and embarrassing dialogue. But apparently Suikoden 2 is really good. Same thing is said for the Grandia series but I haven't played any of those although I will finally play the copy of Grandia 2 I have on Dreamcast someday.

Boomer 03-03-2011 08:58 AM

Yeah I have almost no love for Secret or Legend of Mana - games everyone always seemed to love, and I just never saw it. The co-op never seemed to be all that great either.

Disturbed316 03-03-2011 02:32 PM

Fable 3
Assassins Creed Brotherhood
Gray Matter
Fight Night Champion

OssMan 03-03-2011 10:43 PM

The co-op is what got me through Secret of Mana. No way would I be able to finish that piece of shit on my own. I was lucky to have my friend with me the whole time so we could laugh at the absurdity and stupidity of the game.

Can't play anything with any real semblance of a story anymore. I get bored too easily, and I'm too anal to just skip the story.

If the game has a cutscene that's more than two minutes long I won't play it right now.

Fignuts 03-06-2011 03:42 PM

Want to get DA 2, but I should save my money. Will probably get Beyond Good and Evil HD.

Big props to EA for finally releasing a Fight Night game that's held my interest exclusively for two weeks and has yet to become insanely easy.

Should point out that I've always been a fan of this series, but after all of 48 hours real life time in the past, you were an absolute worldbeater, and then some other new game would come out.

Me too. I think we both play too many old games to stay current. Not sure if I will ever get through my backlog. And my desktop motherboard bit the dust a month ago, so I don't have a great computer to play it on.

OssMan 03-21-2011 02:23 PM

I like Fallout 3. I played Oblivion for 100+ hours so I am used to it. But I'm almost done with Metal Gear Solid and Metroid Prime and trying to play some other games, shouldn't have started this. Gonna take up a lot of time. Oh well though. If only that fucking backloggery site would reopen registration I would be able to look at a list of all the games I have and the ones I've beaten.

Boomer 03-21-2011 02:55 PM

I'm still planning on playing Morrowind before playing through Oblivion. I just restart those games a lot; I am never satisfied the the class I choose. I've never had that trouble with any of the Fallout games though.

Boomer 03-21-2011 02:57 PM

I've been considering finally getting to Metroid Prime 2; it's been at the top of my list for a while. Really enjoyed the first one. The only other Gamecube game I want to play more is Eternal Darkness.

Full co-op campaign now, which is AWESOME. Played for like 4 hours today with a friend and only got like 15 turns deep in the game. Had some ridiculous battles where we got absolutely shit on, but also had some awesome ones where we had odds against us and used tactics to stomp some ass.

It was really fun playing with other people. I could see it being in the "regular rotation" if some of my friends had it. I plan on giving the first a shot, so I can't really compare it yet.

My gay ass friend who I beat Secret of Mana with hated it so much that he refuses to play Seiken Densetsu 3 (Secret of Mana 2) and that was the only reason I wanted to play Secret of Mana in the first place. We've played maybe 10 hours since September. The sequel isn't great, but it's way better than Secret of Mana.

Both are excellent games. Borderlands is 1000 times better with other people, and Alpha Protocol starts to get good once you finish the first main mission.
