QTE's were dumb. But I don't know, it just felt like too much of an Uncharted game instead of a Tomb Raider game. The puzzles were stupid, the environment really wasn't that interesting. The story was okay though, but the cast were shit. There's a lot of room for improvement, and I believe they can do it, but I don't think it's GOTY material like everybody says it is.

Also, Revelations is a really good game. I have it on 3DS, I beat it on WiiU, I loved it. I think the 3DS version is a bit better because I feel like it sucks you into the game more and makes it more scarier, but that's just me.

it's already scary to play this game on the ps3 during the day,i can´t imagine playing it at night on a little screen o_0.

It's pretty nerve wracking. You do get braver over time during a play session and start to go "psh, no sweat." But then a particularly scary moment happens, and you're freaked out for another twenty minutes. XD

Then again, this is my first Resident Evil game, so maybe it won't be quite so scary to RE veterans.

Nah, it got pretty tense for me too. The more you play the easier it gets, only because you're better equipped.

it´s very easy to lose ammo, like on the boss at the restaurant , i´m with the AUG,Sniper Rifle and the Shotgun, are there more good weapons like MP5 and Python from the Raid mode?

I can't remember, been a while since I played the game. The boss at the restaurant isn't hard at all. Just shoot the barrels and unload grenades on him, does massive damage.

Played a hell of a lot of Battlefield 3. Very fun game, and even on the uber low settings, it's very enjoyable and easy to look at.
Still have some gripes with it, but enjoying it more every time I play it

I really enjoyed Tomb Raider, had not played one since part 3 on the original Playstation. I had never played Uncharted before it but am now playing Uncharted 3 and frankly it is not as good as Tomb Raider. Tomb Raider has better combat.....maybe it is a bit too combat heavy but I felt it was really enjoyable and the optional tombs have the Tomb Raider puzzle solving feel but I only did maybe 2 of them. I haven't played much Ps3 or 360 and have mostly played Wii for the past 5 years but Tomb Raider was a really great looking game and Lara was really well done (supporting characters not so much). Its the best game I have played on Ps3 or 360.

In general I am playing too many different games to really accomplish anything in gaming, I am barely making progress in any of them. I am probably playing the original Ape Escape the most right now and just got the flying gadget....

Didn't get to sleep til nearly 6AM thanks to downloading the original Mass Effect on an amazingly slow connection. So I didn't get up til gone noon. So achievements have been few and far between today. But I did finally begin my epic quest to play the entire Mass Effect trilogy back to back. Doing a Vanguard file. It's odd, 'cause they suck in ME1 because of the duff power system but become uber godly the moment I jump to the sequels thanks to Biotic Charge and much better powers overall. So far I've only got to rescue Liara (always my woman of choice) so not too much done yet but it's early days. Debating whether or not to put Anderson on the council now that I know how much of a prick Udina will be once I hit ME3.

I found the time to finish Sonic CD as well. Didn't get all the Time Stones or the Good Futures though, but now that I've unlocked Tails I'll go through again when that crap's easier to find.

Played some Persona 4 Golden yesterday. Handsdown my favorite game ever. I just clocked 180 hours.
Still can't get all social links in one go (even after my 4th playthrough) and I refuse to use an online guide!!!
I think I'm just going to take pen and paper and map out who you can talk to on what days and plan it out like that...

I booted up Oblivion for the first time in about a week, maybe a week and a half, and I did a side quest which lead to a farmer's sons dying (hey, I'm a thief using a bow; if they wanted to live, they should have asked someone else for help). I explored some, came across a fort I can't enter right now in a snowy place, a little flying bastard that almost turned me into his personal lightning rod (running from him lead to finding the snow), and I lost my horse in a lake before any of former business transpired. A shame, but I presume I can get another somewhere else.

Oh, I beat OoT 3D: Master Quest the other day too. That version of the game kinda kicked my ass. Honestly, I feel like that should have been the main game from the get go. The dungeons were more difficult, and not just due to confusion that sets in from previously beating OoT a few times. They were legitimately trickier to navigate through, with thought and keen sight being required to make it through some of the more difficult puzzles. The mirrored thing was a difficulty all its own outside of dungeons though. Dungeons were so changed, there wasn't much to worry about as far as the mirrored world went. I'd rather not recount how long it took me to find my way back to the Kokiri Forest after picking up Master Quest from where I ended (after the second Spiritual Stone) three months prior because I kept letting myself get turned around from what I knew about the normal game though. In the end though, it was more satisfying to beat Master Quest. It should be noted that in the final fight with Ganon, I only had 17 of 20 hearts (armored, of course), and I stopped taking the game seriously, using my longshot to hit his tail. I actually almost lost, but I went ahead and pulled out the Master Sword, swung, hit, and moved into the moment before the final blow.

Oh, and I totally accidentally started the long side quest to get the super strong Goron sword, so I went ahead and finished it just for the sake of completing it, which made the final Stalfos bastards a lot easier to kill. Hell, it made the mountain of them in Master Quest easier to deal with, period. They could really beat down your health with their jump attacks that were suspiciously good at navigating past the shield.

As well, I started up Animal Crossing: New Leaf for the first time in a few months. I got halfway through weed clearing, annnnd then I finished pooping and decided I'd do the rest later.

Woke up, booted up PS3, played Mass Effect, got the asari consort to jiggle my junk around, shot a few geth in the face. Been kind of a slow morning so far. But at least I fixed the PS3's technical problem so now I can play the rest of my games again. Things should pick up this afternoon once I've had some food.

something really strange happened to my PC yesterday,my pc runs DS-ps1-gba emulators at 100%(heck,60 fps) and runs ppsspp really good on most games with some adjusts,also runs the wii/GC emulator pretty well....
so,lately i stopped playing on the DS and ps1, because i downloaded the psp one and, its freakin´awesome!,games like dissidia,persona3,hexyz force, unchained blades are incredible!
back to the main topic, it starts pretty slow but keep at 100% with ~10 minutes....then, i was going to show my save file of Devil survivor 2 on NO$ZOOMER(214 hours:D) to my friend, and the game was very slow.... i tried booting inazuma eleven 3,archaic sealed heat and dragon quest joker 2, and they all were pretty slow,i tried with nogba and desmume, both were slow too, i tried scanning pc for virus, but i found nothing...
then, i was sad that i couldn´t play my ds games normally anymore....then i tried dolphin and ppsspp again.... now,they are more faster than they were!WTF happened??

TL;DR: now, my DS-PS1 emulators are slow and my WII/GC-PSP emulators are faster than the usual......

Started Gravity Rush yesterday and this morning and got to the end of Chapter 8.
Really fun game, interesting story and charming art.
Camera can be a bit of a bitch sometimes.

With this addition to my collection of games I have to say I don't regret buying my PS Vita one bit.
I think I used my Vita more than my 3DS right now.

That really is the one Vita game that makes me wish I had one (kinda like how Mega Man Maverick Hunter X is the one game that made me finally pick up a PSP last year).
