Magicka

 

Wasn't too keen on the demo, but after watching some 'Lets Play' videos I decided to pick it up via Steam. I think a lot of it is getting used to the controls. I spent most of my time in the demo trying to walk with WASD and accidentally casting spells.

 

Are you playing with friends/coop?

 

I thought Magicka was a pretty bad game in SP the first few times I played it in the demo, but when I started the coop it became a lot more fun.

 

And yeah, agreed on the controls. Not great, but for button mashing and trying to figure out certain spells they're actually pretty good. I'm more of the type to just spam ARSE mines, though.

I started inFamous this weekend. I originally bought it a few months ago.. I must have been in a bad mood or something, because the characters irritated me to the point that I stopped playing after getting to the food drop (about 5 minutes into the game). However, I put it in on Saturday, hoping I could get some quick easy trophies and then found out that I really like the game. It reminds me a lot of Assassin's Creed, except instead of hidden blades you shoot electricity.

I have found it a little tedious, and Cole doesn't always go where you want him to, but hopefully that's corrected in the sequel.

Fallout 3. I'm doing a full replay to go through all the DLCs. I did Anchorage (Alright), Mothership Zeta (Pretty good) and The Pitt (Easy as hell) already.

 

Currently on Point Lookout. Never knew mutant rednecks pack so much punch.

 

After Fallout 3, its back to Oblivion. Then on to New Vegas.

I'm playing Ocarina of Time 3D and enjoying it. I'm always amazed just how much content was crammed into that game. I never have found all the skull tokens or all the soft earth patches, and I'm sure there are other side quests I haven't found and don't even know exist.

 

I'm also playing Mega Man Zero Collection. There's a big big problems with Mega Man Zero, you can't restart a level when you die, you need to go back to the last place you saved. Mega Man Zero is STUPID hard. This is making progress... frustrating. MMZ 2, 3, and 4 all fixed this though, so I'm just trying to motivate myself to power through it so I can get to the rest of the games.

 

Is that one of the MMZ games where you have to S-rank a boss to get its ability?

Yeah he can be a bit indecisive. tbh Ezio sometimes has the same issues. Both of them suffer from "no I only wanted to drop to the lower ledge not to my death"-itus.

Yeh this problem crops up a fair bit in the Assassin's Creed games and it can be incredibly annoying, especially when they decided to go and put arbitrary time limits on the Secret Location platforming sections. -.- The games designed more for speed than actual precision, I was kinda surprised the platforming sections were so well received. (I completed Brotherhood the other day, this has been weighing on my mind. XD )

Not as of yet. One of the chaps I know has been wanting me to get it for awhile, but he is currently in America visiting his partner, so his online time is a bit erratic.

Assassin's Creed II.

 

 

I really am getting into it. The only trophy I've actually tried to get is the Street Cleaner. This is where I learned that you're technically not suppose to kill citizens. I went to kill an official, and thinking I didn't need to lock-on, I accidentally killed two citizens. Turns out I need to dump five in one hay bale, and for having almost gotten into trouble I only did four thinking it was an overall progress deal.

 

:(

 

Either way, having a blast and it's one of the best games I've gotten for $5.

I sure hope not! I haven't netted myself anything better than a B on any of the levels! And usually it's more like a C or a D.

Well I'm not currently playing Dungeon Keeper 2 because it's a pretty disappointing port. From what I'm reading they just removed the CD check. I already own the CD. Just it doesn't work on Win 7 so I was hoping that GoG would release it so it would run on Win 7 and it's as bad as my CD version. I now own 2 versions of Dungeon Keeper 2 that don't work ¬_¬

getting all the rainbow drops or whatever can be a little tough. The one in the water world in particular I remember giving me fits. Also I think the "true" boss is a little tough. Hope that isn't too spoilery.

That's the tough part. Before walkthroughs/FAQs, finding the Rainbow Drops and facing the true boss was the only thing I couldn't do as a kid.
