What Game/Games are you playing now?

[Beanovsky Durst]

Still trying to improve my time on Director's Cut. Man, I almost forgot how good are vintage REs. And leveling up on Gears 3.

[BBboy20]

Decimating the human race.

Also some Space Marine and Ico.

[REmaster]

Rygar and G.I. Joe on NES.


Old School Bitches.

[Mr. Spencer]

Mostly playing some GoldenEye Source with friends and powering through my Expert run on Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory, though both of those will have to put on hold as SWAT 4 arrived on my doorstep when I got home.

It's time to breach and clear.

[Summoner]

Inazuma Eleven. Despite coming out over three years ago, it only JUST got a European release. And goddamn, it's fun. I usually hate soccer-based games, but this one is easy to play, and the RPG elements are a massive bonus.

[Dracarys]

Fighting the Horde

There is a She-Ra game?

[Mr. Spencer]

Well, SWAT 4 is great fun.

Here's some snaps of my team in action:

Clock Tower, Clock Tower and even more CLOCK TOWER!!

*Ahems* Aside from that...

NieR Gestalt & NieR RepliCant. Just tried the World of Recycled Vessel DLC for the Gestalt version, little bit trippy but I really love the lighting and colour choices for it.

That and the NieR Gestalt/RepliCant Nightmare/Arrange Album music used in the World of Recycled Vessel is awesome stuff. Even better to hear it in-game with the DLC itself.

That, combined with teleporting enemies and that I was attacking them on-time with the songs was fun.

As for RepliCant, there aren't too many dialogue changes outside of general words being replaced to fit with the changes to the characters between it and the Gestalt version (default version outside of Japan).

Also nice to have a look at the art, development information and short stories that cover both versions of the game in the Grimoire NieR book. Well worth the money on that one! The walkthrough within it covers RepliCant but it shows on a small section the differences between both versions throughout the game as well.

Tried my PS1 copy of Final Fantasy VIII on my PS3, started it up and got a black screen. I couldn't remember if some releases worked or if it was VIII as a whole, but then again all of the PAL copies were pretty much screwed over - especially if you wanted to play it off the disc on your computer on an emulator as the PC version's MIDI music sucks in contrast to the original PS1 sound, the trade-off I suppose for having clearer FMVs and the like within the PC version itself.

Anyway, that was resulting in a bit of growling and was the main point of weighing things - get C:V "HD" when my PS2 seems to still be working (even if it wasn't I can just play off the disc with an emulator then) and that it would be $30 alone for it or if I wanted to get it and RE4 for less then it'd cost me $60 to get the PSN+ subscription, the same price would be the normal C:V & RE4 "HD" prices combined.

DX

So, I decided on Final Fantasy VIII - despite that they more or less work on the physical copy I have of it, Disc 3 mucks up a little bit due to being overplayed.

Played a bit of Portal 2 co-op with Smiley since I found a copy brand new for $50, whereas other stores are still listing it at $88.

I've really got to finish NieR though as I've been putting it off to work on other stuff.

[Mr. Spencer]

"You're in my way, sir."

Fuck, I must have heard that like sixty times now. I can't get through a mission without hearing it at least three times. I've only managed to flashbang myself twice fortunately, but I know how to avoid it now. Spoony made the mistake of looking ahead into the room itself, since the door is open you also get caught in the blast of the flashbang. You have to physically turn around and look away, then when you hear it go off, turn around and go in like the U.S. Marshals.

Man, you just reminded me how much I've wanted to play a SWAT game for years.

[Scream]

Just completed the final Fallout NV DLC - Lonesome Road, fantastic stuff, very well scripted for a game on this engine. I can see why they didn't add Ulysses as a companion earlier on as his story isn't very conventional, its quite deep and takes a bit of time to soak in. I like that.. Location is superb too, everything is falling apart as you walk through it, feels a lot more flexible/dynamic than previous FO locations..

I also installed the Gun Runner's Arsenal which adds tons of different weapons/ammo types, there's a huge amount of choice now which totally changes the way you would build a character IMO. Along with the new perks/items from the DLCs and higher level cap the game seems gigantic again.. I can respec my character but I think I would rather just go through it one more time..

The best DLC in order would probably be:

1. Dead Money/Lonesome Road (tie)
2. Old World Blues
3. Honest Hearts

Didn't really enjoy OWB as it kept trying to be funny but on the bright side there's a lot of content in there.. Honest Hearts had nothing to it.. Dead Money is probably the one to get - has a great feel to it that is much more like a survival horror game, plus it has a decent story/characters.

RE4


I used to not like it much back when it came out for GC. I don't know why....I would get so bored of it rather quickly....but upon playing it again on my PS3, I absolutely love this game. Not sure why I didn't like it back then.

[TheSelfishGene]

I defeated Time Crisis 2 today.
Finished the whole game without losing a single life

Been able to finish the game one credit for a looong time, but always lost at least one piece of life along the way. Not today

[aris13]

Demon Souls.

[nemesiswontdie]

I've been wanting to try out Persona 4 for about 2 weeks now and come to find out a friend of mine was gonna trade it in yesterday to Gamestop so I told him I'd buy it from him for $10. And so far its been worth $10. Its great. I love it. So far I like it more than Digital Devil Saga. The game is in good condition too. The inserts and manual are there and it even came with the bonus disc (OST).

The music in this game is absolutely amazing. 1000X better than DDS OST. The soundtrack for DDS gets old really fast. Its just a drone guitar repeating itself every 5 seconds. It gets old. While in Persona 4 the music changes up quiet often.

And you can't deny this song is pretty damn sexy.

[GuardhouseMusic]

Excellent choice, Sebastian, glad you got the OST edition. If you have a PSP, Persona 2: Innocent Sin was just released, a game which didn't come out in its initial release because it involved Hitler (sorta). It's definitely one of those gems from the PS1 era and I recommend it.

Though I'm not sure if I can put over Persona 3FES, as I played that first and then four, enjoying four a lot more. Other fans have the opposite opinion, but to put it in perspective, P4 took me 85 hours and P3FES took me 105.

Ha, Me and John were talking about Hitler in P2 just yesterday.


And speaking of P2FES...


I just got home with it

[GuardhouseMusic]

Nice. 3FES is a good game like the rest, it just moves slowly as all fuck.

For me, it's been:
-Phoenix Wright (hype = confirmed)
-Demon's Souls (ditto)
-RE4 HD, Mercenaries.
-Battlefield 3 Beta (I like it actually, it's a nice break from CoD, stuff which I've had much more exposure to)
-The occasional match of MK or MvsC3 against my friend.

[aris13]

-Demon's Souls (ditto)

1st playthrough?
