Saturnine Tenshi Posted May 8, 2011 Report Share Posted May 8, 2011 That's been the general consensus. I wonder why that is. The pig-tails, maybe? Neptune is such a bubbly-sweet little hoodie-kitten, though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strangelove Posted May 9, 2011 Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 Killzone 3s campaign was awesome. Loved it. The jungle level was definitely the best looking one. Its fucking art. If only i had friends to do co-op with.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrowKnow Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 Darksiders, enjoyed the story/combat... puzzles/platforming were a bit annoying. Looking forward to 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted May 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 I quite liked Darksiders, and without the puzzles I think I would have liked it significantly less. It's like a poor man's Zelda, which is exactly what I wanted when I bought it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RockyRan Posted May 17, 2011 Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 Finished Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time. I really loved the game and prefer it a lot more to Tools of Destruction, mostly because of the added space hub with planets. I definitely loved those mini-planet things above all and the added exploration was really good IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deanb Posted May 19, 2011 Report Share Posted May 19, 2011 Assassins Creed Brotherhood. Shame some of the end missions were marred by bugs-of-sorts. ("Seeing Red", where you follow the cardinal with the Apple, and the end bit with the moving/timed slates in the final chamber) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMightyEthan Posted May 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2011 I didn't mind the moving stuff in the final chamber, but other than that I agree that it kind of fell apart from a gameplay standpoint once you recover the Apple.

TheMightyEthan Posted May 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2011 Just finished LA Noire. I wish there was more... not because there's not enough there, but because I love solving the cases so much that I just want to keep doing it.

Nexus Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Jesus, Ethan, is it really short? :/ I just finished Star Wars: Force Unleashed 2. It's a nice mindless game. Killing people with lightsabers and stuff is always fun. Final boss was a piece of piss. QTEs can fuck the fuck off though. Average game.

deanb Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Yeah I wasn't expecting a "I've beat LA. Noire" until like next week at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battra92 Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Okay this is a bit sad but the other night I just beat for the very first time in my life ... (Mike Tyson's) Punch-Out I can get all the way to Mike Tyson/Mr Dream without getting knocked on my ass once and yet I could never seem to beat old Iron Mike. FWIW I beat the re-release version which is what I bought new at Kay-Bee for like $5 years ago. So this year I've beaten three games: Bayonetta Thunder and Lightning Punch-Out. I blame this short list on watching a lot of silent movies, reading instead of gaming on my lunch breaks, my fiancee not playing Pokemon Black and White with me (and her hogging the PS3 for FF13) and quite frankly a relative meh feeling about playing video games in general lately.

Thorgi Duke of Frisbee Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Jesus, Ethan, is it really short? :/ I beat it, too. It wasn't exactly short, though. Unless you can call 19 hours short. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hocking Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 (edited) I finally got around to beating Arkham Asylum, Assassins Creed: Brotherhood, Just Cause 2 & Singularity in the past few weeks in an attempt to get 30k Gamerscore before L.A Noire came out. Time I probably should've spent studying. >.> Just finished DA:Origins. Great game~. I still have not managed to finish that. I've had it since launch and according to the in-game statistics I'm only 32% done. Originally I had a computer die on my mid-play-through and I never got around to it. I picked the DA:O Ultimate in the Steam EA specials but I just can't seem to really get back into it. Edited May 20, 2011 by Hocking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMightyEthan Posted May 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Jesus, Ethan, is it really short? :/ TWSS? Yeah I wasn't expecting a "I've beat LA. Noire" until like next week at least. I wouldn't call it super short. I had the hints on, and did almost none of the side stuff, stuck purely to the main case lines, and it still took me just over 21 hours. I definitely do not feel like there was not enough content. I already spent another 5 hours doing the street crimes. Now I'm gonna go back and try and five-star all the story cases.

RockyRan Posted May 24, 2011 Report Share Posted May 24, 2011 Finished inFAMOUS 1 now. I was freaking hooked from the beginning and couldn't put it down until I skated through to the ending, which was pretty good if you ask me Definitely looking forward to inFAMOUS 2.

SanaEquiesterer Posted May 24, 2011 Report Share Posted May 24, 2011 (edited) After starting it six months ago, I finally beat Persona 4 yesterday. Easily some of the best characters ever, and now among my most favourite games. Even though the battle system is what differentiates the Persona games, I think they need to make some changes for the next game. By the end of Persona 3: FES I was tired of battles. It was often so much easier and faster to take care of enemies myself in a single turn, so by the time I got to where I needed the SP for abilities, I was out or there was a significant dent in SP. But I believe the need to go to Tartarus to make sure your party was strong enough by the next full moon was what caused me to get tired of battles when I did (too much grinding). With Persona 4, however, I only had to go into the TV twice (and sometimes once) to save the next victim. I never tired of battles and could get back to bettering my character or social links sooner. The tradeoff was that you could never do another activity when you got home. Sometimes I wish I could just stay up and study, regardless of whether or not I got sick (like in P3). With the combat being much the same, but less often and a little easier for the most part, I think Persona 5 needs to make some changes or risk stagnation. I heard most players thought the plot seemed to weird out by the end, but I didn't find the good ending that bad. Adachi would have been one of the people I least expected if it hadn't been spoiled for me, but I would have liked to have seen a better motive than, "Just because! Life is a bitch and I'm banished to the boonies WAAAAAAH" The true ending, however, seemed a little out of left field.

toxicitizen Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 (edited) Demon's Souls! That's a big one to check off the backlog! I kinda regret taking so long to finish it, though. I regularly came across other player's ghosts, but only a handful of times per level. I remember playing on launch day and you'd see ghosts everywhere. Kinda wish I'd played more regularly when the game was more alive :/ Now it's time for New Game + and all the rage the higher difficulty will inevitably cause!

TCP Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 Just finished Final Fantasy IV, moving onto the interlude. I'm excited to try out The After Years. How long should the interlude take? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
