Progressive Boink

[blacktoothgrin]

If it's anything like the not-winning-eleven version then i know its slow as the dickens, and nothing compared to any of the soul calibur games/soul blade or tekken 2 and 3.

Got the Platinum trophy for Burnout Paradise last night, and still have 30% more to earn on it due to all the expansion packs. So much gameplay for your buck.

I thought this time would be different. This time, I would beat Oblivion. This time, my character would be perfect. I would finally see the end of this game that's been haunting me since I bought it like, three years ago. I read FAQs, I planned it out in advance, I wouldn't let this stupid global leveling system get the best of me! Hahah! Not me! I'm too crafty!

whoops, I made a million potions and now everything can kill me in three hits and I've got no weapons

Man, forget this, I'm just gonna go back to playing Skate 2 until I fall asleep.

I gave up on Oblivion after I got vampirism three times in a row. Plus Fallout 3 came out.

I started Infamous on Friday. Beat it on hard mode as a hero last night, trophies at 57%, got 2 shards to find and 4 stunts to pull off, then beat it on hard mode and I get the Platinum. I will say this about trophies. Before the system was implemented, I never bothered with anything harder than normal mode. I started Infamous on its hardest difficulty so I'd only have to play through it twice rather than 3 times. And when Uncharted 2 comes out I'll likely start it at the hardest level it offers (you had to unlock hard and crushing in the first game. Hoping I can just start on crushing in the 2nd.)

Got Tiger Woods 10 for Wii today. Motion Plus works really well. This is gonna take some getting used to. The last Tiger game I played was 05 back on PS2.

[Zack Hoagie]

I finally beat Mass Effect after getting it like, a year and a half ago and ragequitting because of how terrible most of the combat and vehicle controls were.

It got better.

[Jim]

This shit is way harder than playing with a regular controller. I was pretty good at 05 and I straight suck at this one.

[Take1From8]

Got the Platinums on both Infamous and Terminator Salvation. Working on Batman AA Prince of Persia and Dead Space simultaneously. Got to 85% on Eat Lead and took a break, hard mode on that game is pretty unforgiving.

[Terry Cheesecake]

Loving Batman at the moment.

Also if you have an XBox and haven't played Trials HD you are doing something wrong.

[blacktoothgrin]

finally got around to playing bioshock

what a game!

[Terry Cheesecake]

again Trials HD motherfuckers

So, I do this thing every once and a while where I grab a completely random game I haven't heard of from Gamespot's used game bin, and this time I picked up an RPG from 2005 called Romancing SaGa, which sounds more like a dating sim then the weird Final Fantasy II-esque game it is. It's a pretty standard RPG, with one big problem: the difficulty of random encounters are goes up as you level up as opposed to where you are, so the game never gets easier for you. I'm not supposed to be fighting fire tanks in the very first area with monsters, I'm supposed to be fighting rabbits on bits of lettuce!

Also picked up Unlimited SaGa. Fuck that game, it plays like spreadsheet software and looks ugly as hell.

uncharted 2 all day every day

What Randy said

[Bismark]

Halfway through Arkham Asylum, just beat Brutal Legend, devoting all available time to Borderlands right now. Seriously, with these and Dragon Age and Modern Warfare 2 coming out in a few weeks, my priorities don't stand a chance. Anyone got Borderlands and want to play co-op?

[Randy]

I got Borderlands on PS3 if you are one of the other five people with a PS3.

[Zack Hoagie]

Fuck Bismark, I promised myself I would get all of the shit in Brutal Legend before I buy another game and now apparently Borderlands is awesome.

I ain't even past the Dry Ice Mines
