What did you Accomplish in Gaming Today?

[astrangeone]

Ended up forging a warflare bow (the last brachydios bow) in Monster Hunter 3U. I might go after a few green nargacugas for their armour!

ko, I have been busy doing some things....
Monday: ordered a copy of Project Diva f(the Vita one). suposedly arrives in 1-2 weeks, I CAN'T WAIT!!11!!one!!1!!!!
Tuesday: I went to Todojuegos to preordered a copy of Pokemon Y and out of curiosity asked if they had Project Diva F(the PS3 one) and they almost wagged the case on my face that I couldn't resist and bought it too, looks beautiful . now I can wait the Vita version while playing the PS3 version lol
Thursday: Played a little(like 3 hours, could have been more if none of us checked the clock) of Borderlands 2 with a friend, we're continuing our coop playthrough with Krieg(I) and Gaige(him). we are level 21 and I still don't know how to use well his skills, almost everything requires damaging yourself to deal more damage but he lacks a skill to passive regen hp and I suck with his action skill that is the only "safe" option to heal hp. I prefer Maya, she can deal great damage and provide support at the same time.
We got until floating sanctuary and then jumped to Torgue DLC, skipped Scarlet's because we played that already individually.
Today: I plan on play Persona 3 Portable, I don't want to forget it again when I'm finishing it. once done with it I'll be getting a hold of Persona 4 Golden, I didn't wanted to buy it before because I'll end up playing it instead of P3P.

AWESOME GAME! my eyes were glued to the vid the entire time, nice. Was that you playing? I really need to get into the Sony systems.

FYI: that video is A. cheated for infinite shooting, normally you need to dodge that stuff B. only a small part of the game. Most of the game plays completely differently, the bike riding is only like a minigame. (if you can pick the game up for cheap I'd still get it, it's pretty enjoyable, just don't think that's the entire game. You can probably play it on a decent PC using a PSP emulator like PPSSPP (IIRC))

Finally capitulated and bought GTA 5 thanks to a quirk of the trade-in system allowing me to grab it for £20. I got about half an hour of play before my beloved fiancée said, and I quote, 'Fast cars, hookers and mindless violence? Gimme.' and yanked the pad out of..

I have never liked GTA i don't know why? Perhaps it's just too realistic for me but i have tried it many times though i'm sure i'll get myself to like it someday . BTW that reaction by your wife was priceless! I wish I could have been a fly on the wall for that moment.

Heh, i remember thinking to myself "this person may not hit all the targets but he/she is good at calculating when it's too late to take a shot". I even looked for the health bar to see if you could even be hit. Yes i know, though it wasn't much the video did show some of its other gameplay. Even if the game sucked i think i'd still find great pleasure in the novelty of it alone, i mean who doesn't like bad-ass anime chicks with guns (on wheelz ?

Edit: I didn't even concider that there were PS emus for pc im gonna have to check that out, thanks!

To be fair within an hour or so of playing, I've saved a kid from a boat on the highway, tripped balls on bad weed and fought off aliens with a gatling gun, run from porn directors on a jetski with my daughter in tow hurling hysterical abuse at everyone, become best friends with a stripper named Infernus, barrel rolled a pest control truck into a police car, been run over by the cops for kicking a hobo in the nuts and yanked a house clean off the hillside. It's not THAT realistic, to be fair. I also discovered this amusing little diversion...

 

[BORTZ]

I am stuck wandering around the "Unclean one's" country in SMT4, which is actually tokyo. WTF

 

[Sychu]

Both my SCDS2 & 32GBSDHC are ordered and on their way and my anniversary edition DSiXL is a step closer to becoming a full blown retro-machine. As well, though it isn't much, i'v managed to defeat a cuople more stages in advance wars: days of ruin with ease so nothing exciting to report there. I still haven't continued my run of Leaf Green or DarkDuel Story's yet and i'm about to try to learn how to record videos on Mednafen emulator.

0 0 you have actually picqued my interest a bit in GTA, never looked at it like that.

I took a trip to Eurogamer expo with another temper... we have been there 4 times now and personally speaking gets worse each year.....(for the space they have and do not use + the extremely long lines to try anything)

Yes they had the next gen consoles and new titles coming soon but the one thing i took time out to queue for was the Oculus Rift!

They had a demo of fighter planes either on an island or industrial estate giving you a fly through. the unit itself is a bit bulky as the guys there said it was still a development unit ( now i know how sam fisher feels during splinter cell missions with the goggles lol) but the potential for something great is there, you had a full 360 degree view of the cockpit and outside and it does feel like your immersed in what you see and play giving you an almost real life feel within a portable headset. its a shame the demo itself seemed low budget and the refresh rate caused breaking in the graphics upon fast movement... they did say its 1080P and we will see its full potential at end release

Personally i would have like to try the rollercoaster ive seen in the youtube videos but you cant be too fussy.. i tried a good piece of tech that if supported by consoles aswell will really shine in the market place.. im not usually a person who buys in to accessories but this.... i would invest in upon release

FINALLY got my broadband activated so as of this moment I am online on PSN under my usual name. You might also see me running around on FF14's Durandal server under the name Blaze Fielding, low level Gladiator as I've not been able to play properly until now.

 

[nryn99]

Won a dota 2 match as Rylai getting kills and assists and now wards/sentries.
Fuck them who said Rylai is full support, I go ganker mode.

I 100%'ed Metroid : Other M
and was rewarded with ... a "congratulations" message ... unblocking all the gallery images ... AND then unblocking hard mode . (which I, personally, find much better than unlocking extra weapons or powers in other games which basically only make it LESS of a challenge)

The last item I got was, interestingly enough, probably the first one you ever get sight of in the game but (as I've mentioned before) I HATE those yellow doors. They give me the idea that I just have to look for a button and I can get right through so after several runs back and forth between the back side of the yellow door and the hanger, I finally wisened up, contemplated the presence of a control panel on the OTHER side of the door, looked over the map a bit and was able to deduce a better place to look for the entrance. Like so many of the other missing items, I had passed by the entrance DOZENS of times without noticing a thing.

I have actually escaped from the exploding ship 3 times now. The last time was with 99% and both previous times I naively hoped to somehow catch that same item on the way out . This also means that I beat the real final boss 3 times. The first time I lost count of how many times I had attempted to kill the freaking thing but last time I got it in 3 tries and this time in one shot.

I've taken that trip between my ship and the final boss (at least up to the sector elevator room) so many times now that I I've become VERY efficient at it. I think I know every point where it's best to speed boost, comet jump, shoot enemies out of the way, dodge them or just screw attack through them. I probably should time myself

I was also very pleased while examining my surroundings in search of items at how many sealed doors and broken elevators there where and, yes, *gasp* bathrooms (even though only the ladies' room is ever actually accessible ... which is interesting) something a lot of other games lack. The space ship was NOT originally designed as a huge, semi-linear maze. It was actually once functional.

Total game time : 25h:07m:39s
EDIT : roughly 7 hours of that was cleaning out items which makes my play time "winning" the game the first time roughly the same as my first play through on Super Metroid)

Hmm, interesting log. I have never played other - M.

passed flight school in GTA V!

what annoying shit!

 

[snikerz]

It's shitty

 

[Arras]

It's not. It's an okay game, but it doesn't really feel like Metroid.

 

[TripleSMoon]

It's not THAT awful as a general game, but it's really awful as a Metroid game. There si a difference.

 

[Blaze163]

I'm sorry to report that as I have spent most of my free time on GTA 5 pissing about and exploring, I've achieved damn near nothing. Aside from the mass murder of innocent civilians, cops, strippers, etc.
