What did you Accomplish in Gaming Today?

[Thanatos Telos]

I finished my 100% run for every main Assassin's Creed game, that took a while.

 

[Maxternal]

In Skyward Sword i gained the ability to enter the door of time. This meant fighting both Grahim and Tha Captive in their second forms. Despite technically being stronger this time around, I suck at timing when things are flying at me so the fact that this battle does NOT involve that (and, probably, just being more acustomed to the controls) made this time around a far easier and I actually got him the first time. The Captive would have been insanely hard if I hadn't also realized that he doesn't actually have to be on the ground for you to hit his REAL weak spot ;P (and I'm sure this would have made the first time around lot easier, too) but I still didn't actually kill him without him eating the pendulum hair sage person once.

I also found out that the "generous" person that gave me my digging mits had given me an old, used, nearly useless pair and got myself some brand new ones. I also found a legendary treasure that had been sought by treasure hunters for generations...only to have it vaporize when I had to use it to open a locked door...but I was at least then able to finish forging the most legendary sword of all time. It was also well worth having to protect an extremely whiny robot wuss.

In other news, I got the position of all the klog marked on my map in Wind Waker.

the captive?
its the imprisioned right?

 

[xwatchmanx]

In Sonic '06, I got to Crisis City in the Sonic campaign, and beat Iblis in the Silver campaign.

Why? Because I hate myself, that's why.

 

[Silverthorn]

I 100%ed Naruto:UNS2 (story, battles, side-quests, recipes...)
It feels funny when you have absolutely nothing to do in story mode anymore.

Probably, I got tired of having to look up the OFFICIAL English translation used when I had been playing in Spanish.
Actually, the door of time in Spanish is the portal of time but I kinda remembered OoT using the term "door" so I guessed at that one, too. Others terms I happened to remember other people mentioning but all I could recall in the moment or writing this time was "El Cautivo."

- Got my profile banned on MiiVerse because I input my twitter name
- Got a platinum trophy in the Ninja game on NintendoLand
- Finished all the levels in Mutant Mudds


Haven't been doing a whole lot, my back just got better so I have a lot to catch up on. Other than that, been playing Resident Evil 5. But I have to finish Skyward Sword, I got to the dungeon with the third flame so I have to go through that still. But dammit, I haven't been in the mood to play the game that much. Is it me, or is the game not as great as people said. I don't know, I find myself not getting sucked into it as much as I did past Zelda game.

 

[Maxternal]

Oh, I almost forgot. In Skyward Sword I was also able to make 2 kills with the bow that were BEYOND it's normal range.
(I thought it was pretty cool, anyway.)

Really? That sounds kind of a really lame reason to ban your MiiVerse profile...

Well fuck, I said "if you'd like to play together sometime, best way to contact me is via my twitter". I'm not on my WiiU 24/7. If I get a message on my twitter asking to play a game, then I'll hop on, otherwise I'm going to play WiiU when I want and not hop on just for the sake of hoping to play online with people.

:/
my friend drew an ps3 killing an wii u, he was banned.....

 

[Maxternal]

thats luck

I killed the only two enemies that I shot at that were out of range. I saw the arrow drop suddenly when it got to the end of range on my first shot so I aimed higher on the second shot. (The first kill it actually took me a third shot to get it right but the second kill I nailed him on the first time I aimed high.)

It's not just you. Heck, I even wrote an editorial about it, and if the comments are anything to go by, most people agree with you and me.

I think for me not being the biggest fan of the game, is more of the fact, that the gameplay and all that is slower compared to past games. There's not a whole lot of exploration or anything to happen.

Ocarina of Time: You had the Skulltulas, fishing, the poes and such. And the characters in the game were just more memorable. Same with Wind Waker. Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword, there's no memorable characters or memorable places. I mean there's no Lake Hylia, there's no Dragon Roost Island. Even Kakariko Village was bland in TP and not even in Skyward Sword. In Skyward Sword, I just don't give a shit about any of the characters. The bug collecting is stupid. The upgrade system shouldn't even be in the game. And the dungeons and area's are all just bland and have no life to them.

Ocarina of Time: You walk into The Water Temple (which is my all time favorite temple ever) and it felt like you were actually in an underwater temple, not just a water temple. Shadow Temple made you feel like you were about come face to face with the Grim Reaper.

Same goes for Wind Waker (I'm just using OoT because it's what I'm currently playing through on my 3DS again). Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword have none of that. None of the temples or areas have that little charm where there will be fans saying "this was my favorite area" or anything.

For me, the characterization is actually one of the highlights of SS. Zelda for once actually made me genuinely care enough about her so that I actually WANTED to save her, and Groose is quite possibly my favorite side character in the whole series.

As for dungeons, did you not like the Ancient Cistern? That's actually one of my favorite dungeons in the whole series.

I'm not a big fan of the Zelda games, but I do try to play them, because a lot of people praise them.
I personally found the handheld games, TP and SS to be more fun than OoT and MM which are probably the most praised.
Haven't tried WW yet so can't speak for that.

Anyway on topic:
Beaten Ocarina of Time for the first time in my life and didn't incredibly like it.
Ganondorf was a pushover compared to some of the other bosses, Ganon was a little more tricky but once you know what to do t's a really easy fight too. Probably not going to start Master Quest until I've beaten all my other games.

100% achievements for L.A. Noire. Boy, it took a while

100% achievements for L.A. Noire. Boy, it took a while

I haven't touched the game yet. Bought it a few months ago because it was a good deal and it's been sitting there. Feel bad. I might pick it up soon though. Getting a little bored with Borderlands 2.

Also I didn't achieve anything yet today, but I got my profile on MiiVerse unblocked. All I had to change was my twitter name to say "contact me on twitter as it's the best way to contact me if you want to play. Just message me for my name"

Just realized, I beat Adventure Time - Hey Ice King Why'd You Steal Our Garbage around 2am today. I loved the ending battle. Game was short and easy, but for 30 bucks, it's hard to fault it.

 

[xwatchmanx]

Finally beat Crisis City as Sonic in Sonic 06... THANK. FREAKING. GOD. That level was impossible, and the long boarding jumps and the mach segment at the end was flat-out rigged. It took me the better part of an hour, and I involuntarily fist-pumped upon beating it (I got like 5 gameovers before beating it).
