What did you Accomplish in Gaming Today?

[chavosaur]

Made it to round 46 on Der Reise, Black Ops Zombies With my tryhard ten your old brother that kicks more ass than me...

 

[Depravo]

Around 23 years after first playing it I finally finished Wonderboy 2 (arcade version). Tonight I will sleep soundly for the first time in over two decades.

 

[EyeZ]

Completed Crysis Warhead.

Spoiler

Well last night actually

 

[Gahars]

A day or so ago, but I forgot to update... I completed Spec Ops: The Line (AKA You Bastard: The Video Game).

A thoroughly fantastic game, but man, do I just feel awful.

I'm still working on getting the "beat a game in every difficulty" achievement on Minesweeper though.

Are you being sarcastic, or does Minesweeper literally have achievements, now? 0_0

There are actual achievements in the Windows 8 version of Minesweeper, and the gamerscore can go towards your Xbox Live account. It's only 50 points though.

After not being able to find THIS since May...

Spoiler

I finally found it in a small, discreet pocket in one of my suitcases. Apparently, I never unpacked it when I got home from college. Now I don't need to go through the tedious process of pairing my Wiimote and classic controller to my Mac every time I want to play SNES emulators. Yay!

Well, I just finished clocking another 80 some-odd hours into Skyrim. 3 different characters mind you. I just can't stick with the same one for more than 30 hours.

 

[koimayeul]

I got rid of most of my old DOS games from scummvm and such (king quest, indy last crusade, harvester..) They did not aged well enough and i can always get them back from my cd's or the net if anything. In a word, cleaning and clearing my backlog to do.

 

[jargus]

I beat Tales of the Abyss 3D just before our family cookout today

 

[TripleSMoon]

I decided to make a semi online synced gaming system for my emulators. But it hinges on whether a homebrew app for Dropbox (or any similar service) exists for the Wii. Going to do more research on it...

 

[ShadowSoldier]

Actually got used to the controls of Arkham City for the PS3. I find it so damn weird playing that game with anything but a keyboard and mouse. It's taking me a long time to be as good as I usually am on the PC. But at least I got the 50x combat combo with Catwoman, so trophy unlocked lol.

Finished two worlds in KH3D, finally getting used to the controls and gameplay of the game, it's different.

Speeding through Mass Effect 2 on the PS3. Beat it on 360 3 times, and 4 times on the PC. Can't get enough of the game.

What is it about the mouse and keyboard feeling more natural for that game? I mean, is it genuinely easier with a keyboard, or is it just a matter of what you're used to? I personally for the life of me can't get used to the mouse and keyboard for anything but shooters, and even then my skill level is shaky.

 

[Tsuteto]

Passing WinDEU's "Hard Weak Hard Magic" with almost 80%. For those who don't know, it's a DDR thing.

 

[weavile001]

finaly beat skyward sword main story.

 

[TripleSMoon]

Since I beat Mutant Mudds, I decided to stop being lazy and get moving on Sakura Samurai, since I'd literally accomplished nothing since buying it and it was collecting digital dust. Really great game so far, once you get the hang of the controls, and the " patient precision over hasty button mashing" gameplay is positively refreshing.

 

[Maxternal]

I finally got to the chozo ghost in metroid prime 1 (Wii control scheme) but he killed me. I'll try again later.

Honestly, flying in the game is a lot easier. Quick Gadgeting is a hell of a lot easier. And selecting your gadget is easier too. I would say Combat, but I got used to that, minus the special takedowns which feel weird pressing circle and triangle. On the PC, it's just shift and click.

I can definitely understand the flying bit. As well as selecting gadgets, since you have the entire keyboard at your disposal, as opposed to what, only like 16 buttons and 2 sticks, or so?

I finally got around to playing Metroid Prime 2 again. I restarted though as I had no idea where I was or what I was doing

I got less than halfway through the game between spring and October of last year, then just sort of have been procrastinating playing it since then, since I have so many other games to complete. I'm debating whether to just start over with my GCN copy, or wait until I can hunt down a copy of Metroid Prime Trilogy for Wii.
