A day of ups and downs in my gaming world. Let's see...

THE UPS

- My copy of Ruse arrived from eBay, enjoying it so far, even if due to the distracting presence of my fiancee I can't focus on strategy and keep accidentally sending men to their death...
- Finally figured out the controls for SSX on PS3. Played it on 360 months ago so I've had difficulty adjusting. I keep trying to press buttons that aren't there.
- Laid the fuck-smack on that bloody dragon in the castle on Demon's Souls. That son-of-a-bitch has had this coming for a looooong time. Never got a chance to kill the arse hole when I had the game when it was new. Thanks to PS+ I've ticked that mission off my bucket list.
- My unbelievably rare Banpresto gold chocobo plushy arrived this morning too. Has taken pride of place on the sofa next to his other coloured bretherin, my giant chocobo head cushion, and my obligatory cuddly moogle. :moogle:

THE DOWNS

- Finished Mass Effect 3 at last (not had the console to do it until recently). Severely disappointed by the ending. I've spent the last 6 years chasing Liara T'Soni and I don't even get to see me get the girl at the end? What about the promise of all those little blue children? Fuck you, Bioware.
- Have come to the conclusion that Animal Crossing New Leaf is no longer entertaining as I've not logged in for a few days (busy with PS3), checked in this morning and honestly couldn't justify spending more than a minute playing, it all seemed so pointless in the grand scheme of things. It has therefore found a home on my trade-ins pile which I'll be taking to the local Game store this evening once it's cooled down a touch. See if I can get something new for my PS3 now that ME3 isn't an active project any more.

Finished off Manaan in KOTOR while retaining the right to actually go there through throwing both the Republic and the Sith under the bus with the judges, while also telling the truth about the giant shark monster in the water that lead to my decision to destroy the harvesting machine.

Korriban and Manaan done. Tatooine and Kashyyyk to go.

Have fun! Superstar Saga is one of my favorite games of all time. :)

Out of curiosity, what tipped you off to your copy of Super Mario Advance 4 being a fake? What's different about it, etc?


Apparently I didn't really pay attention when I bought it, because it's quite obvious.

As you can see the text and image appears to be cut off a little (the sticker used is too small to fit the image).
The sticker is also made from either thin cardboard or thick paper.
And the biggest tip-off is that it doesn't say 'nintendo' on the motherboard which you can normally see in the slot.

Anyway: Collected all Bean Star pieces, got through Joke Castle or whatever it's called and defeated that thief (again). And now Bean Castle is destroyed (again).
I feel the final boss coming up.
Have to say I'm kinda glad it's over, the gameplay get's kinda repetitive after a while and you can't really say the story is that great. I did have fun playing it though, but kinda lost interest when I had to gather the star pieces.

Yeah, google says it should look like this

and that yours was probably copies off of the top of the box art

the lack or a rating logo on the sticker was also a bad sign.

Beat Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga. That last boss was a bitch.
Took me 10 tries...
Congrats!

Anyway I've been playing Link's Awakening Dx and just like in my Seasons playthrough, I accidentally sequence broke the dungeon order, hitting the 6th dungeon before the 5th. XD I was so bummed when I completed the whole dungeon minus getting the nightmare key and facing the nightmare, only to see that getting said key requires an item I don't have yet (I'm pretty sure, anyway, since I've tried literally everything). :( So, back to the 5th dungeon I go (though maybe I'll explore for side quests first).

I've placed my third import order of the week. I've got Murasama for Vita and Devil Survivor 2 and Radiant Historia for DS.

People may accuse me of being a weeaboo but they can't accuse me of lacking taste.
Have fun with Radiant Historia! I've only played the first couple hours (back in my pirating days on my flash cart, and I liked it so much that I dropped $60 for a copy on eBay when it was out of print early this year). But it truly is a stellar game, and if you've seen my other posts, you know how picky I am with JRPGs. It feels like a spiritual successor to Chrono Trigger in a lot of ways, which is awesome!

I'm paying £26 for my copy and that's including P&P. I'm looking forward to it, I've already beat it but it should gie my 3DS some love.

then, you should play arc rise fantasia, the only thing not good about the game is the voice action, the difficulty is high,the story starts to pick up early in the game, and there are about 50 optional bosses and Rogresses(like magicite from FF6).

Radiant Historia is a great game. A really underrated gem, sadly.

I just finished Stealth bastard deluxe. Picked it up in a humble bundle, but was more than pretty surprised by it: deep, challenging, engaging, good music, great level design (and there are lots of levels) awesome story-through-gameplay...awesome in every way. It even has a level editor. :)

On the go, I'm busy working through Zelda: oracle of seasons. I think I'm in dungeon 6 at the moment (I had already played through Awakening again ;) ).

i think my mind is Broken,just finished Bioshock Infinite,and,hell, i understood FREAKIN´NOTHING!.
Sure, the part on the top of airship fightin´the ENTIRE FUCKIN´ FLEET..... IT WAS AWESOME!!!!!.
the game brought me back to the menu screen as if i exited the game, i thought it was an error or something, i tried finishing the game entering other doors, but nothing special happened.
one of the most epic Games i´ve ever played,Guess the 1999 mode is awaiting me....

    Will you give me mouth to mouth oxygen if my throat closes?
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Nah the air can do that

    I could also yank out the rest of my teeth but theirs professionals for that
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    If your throat closes, putting oxygen in your mouth will not solve anything - as you will be introducing oxygen prior to the area of obstruction
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Just kiss me Kyle.
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    You either need to be intubated to bypass obstruction or create a stoma inferior to the the area of obstruction to survive
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    "Just kiss me Kyle." And I thought all the godreborn gay stuff was a smear campaign
