So, I started The Conquerors' campaign of AoE II HD, and I just beaten Attila the Hun's one. I'm writing this just to say that, for now, these campaigns look far more fun than the boring Age of Kings ones.
Also, 140 is an odd, odd game. But I love it so far. I miss the three extra stages (very difficult).

About 40 hours in Demon Gaze, only 2 main demons left. Died about 6 times at a boss battle so I ended up starting to grind. Forgot to save at one point and had to roll back 45 minutes in game time since I forgot to save at a demon circle ;___;

ps. The story is getting better. I've had quite a few moments with the "I did not see that coming. I really did not.."

Technically this was yesterday, buuuut, in FFX HD:
- I wiped the floor with Ultima Weapon. It got one sweeping attack in that barely did anything.
- I absolutely destroyed Omega Weapon. He got two attacks in, but ended up doing less damage total than Ultima Weapon.
- I beat Dark Valefor. Not the greatest feat, as she is the weakest of the dark aeons, but I'm proud of myself for beating my first one. Tidus ended up dead by the end almost completely because I left his double AP weapon on rather than equipping his ultimate. This allowed me to get back into Besaid, grab Jecht's sphere, grab the Al Bhed primer I had missed, and I finally got Valefor's second overlimit, long after I could have.
- Both Wakka and Tidus only have about one path on the sphere grid left to complete, but I was leveling too quickly. Now I'm basically out of power and ability spheres.

I'm not really ready to take on Dark Ifrit yet, though I know I can even now with proper preparation. I haven't bothered getting Lulu's sigil yet either. I still have a large number of monsters to capture as well, despite already capturing many others. On top of that, I still have all of the other dark aeons to beat before I can even consider taking on Penance. Overall, I'm hating the game a little less, though I hate how leveling up will take twice the grinding now to get all of the power and ability spheres I'll need (since nothing in the Omega Dungeon naturally drops ability spheres, and power spheres only naturally drop from a couple rarer enemies).

My girlfriend and I beat Super Mario Sunshine (GCN) today. My disc has some damage (which I already knew about), Which renders the game working perfectly... except it won't make it through the credits, which is quite sad, since we can't save our post game and get the shades, etc. I was going to grab a new copy of the game before beating, but I've been unable to afford a $25-ish game, and I wasn't expecting for us to beat it so quickly. Oh well, no big loss since we just watched the credits on YouTube. Anyway, onward to Super Mario Galaxy (Wii)! :yaywii:

My girlfriend also beat world 3 in Yoshi's Island (SNES) today. This is a big deal for me because, as a 7 year old kid, I never could beat Naval Piranha, as I couldn't figure out how to beat him. I've beaten him since, but on the GBA version. So 17 years later, this marks the first time I got past where I couldn't as a child on the original SNES version. I bellowed a very proud, "FUCK YOU!" to the boss upon beating him. :lol:

I sold almost all of my 3DS games on eBay :tpi:

Aside from that, I managed to finish both Fire Emblem Awakening and OoT 3D, something I'd been putting off for weeks. I have no idea why.

Finished chapter 1 of Danganronpa.
Great game!
I like about everything about it. Graphic art, 'social system' (if you can call it that), gameplay, voice acting, story,...
So glad there was an option for the Japanes voices too!
First case was super easy though.
Not very original that the killer's name was written upside down on the wall and were mistaken for numbers. I didn't immediately get the connection of the crystal ball and the incinerator though.

Have no fear, the first case is definitely the set up case to get you prepared for all the twists the game will throw at you later.
Especially depending in your difficulty, it's gonna get pretty difficult and pretty fricken great.

Yeah I had every trophy at 90hrs but filling the sphere grid for each character, even using the AP trick literally takes about 40hrs plus. So I spent nearly of mindless grind
Holy.. 146 hours? That took a while :wtf:

Yeah filling the 800 node sphere literally takes 30hrs or more even using the AP trick.

What's the AP trick? I mean, I'm about 80 hours in, and it's only taken about the past 8 to get Wakka and Tidus almost completely done (from about the 20% of the grid I had completed) using the Omega Dungeon with double AP weapons on. Really, I can get around 60 sphere levels in about 45 minutes. Except for Auron. I should probably put double AP on a weapon for him. Regardless, AP trick?

99 levels per fight!
Seems a lot of effort to setup but it's really not.
To get 40 power/speed/mana/ability orbs per fight buy distillers from the ronso merchant at the base of mt. Gagazet and use 1 per fight on Kottos in the monster arena. Overkill him to get a 40 sphere drop.
I filled in all the blank nodes with mag def spheres from one eye in the monster arena who also drops triple ap weapons.

I finally finished advance wars 1 on my 13 year old save file! Was stuck on the last mission against sturm.
According to other forums and fellow gamers, I apparently had the worst line up, consisting of Andy, Grit and Sami.

Oh well, it was perfect start to my birthday, Yay happy b-day to me!
