Borderlands 2

Went on a quest for the dastardly cursed gun known as The Bane.
Figuring this gun was going to be totally badass, I went out of my way to get it.

Lets just s call it a novelty gun

THIS WHY I AM PROGRESSING SLOWLY IN BORDERLANDS!!!!, THIS GAME IS FRIGGIN' AWESOME! it's must play despite the first mission being a bit boring, but boring because my first Playthrough was a stealth low chaos game to get the first ending, but at the ending it turns out to be very fun, now i am on my second playthrough, the KILL KILL KILL playthrough, this game's swordfighting is better then Skyrim, and i enjoy summoning rats and blowing people, the game is really fun on both ones, also, i discovered that the game has some capable bosses, who can be skipped entirely if you don't want a cinematic battle, Choices....I got the DLC and it's challenging me, it's really good DLC, i like how Arkane Studios came to gaming from nowehere and brought us a Gem in gaming, a must get. I feel sorry for anyone who didn't play this and Rayman Origins.


I played the s*** out of this game. I went through playthroughs in a row, it's that good. I even got the clean hands trophy without killing anybody, not even the targets. It's amazing.

Hitman Absolution
I've been playing missions over and over again trying to get the challenges done.

I'll get to that game eventually. My Wii U has suddenly developed a backlog I need to get to. :mrgreen:

Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge
Just cleared Day 3. The final section was a boss battle against... a... METAL-SKINNED CYBORG CLONE T-REX. :BOOM:

Hard as hell, but far from boring. :DANCE:

Good to see someone else considering to get Dishonored, i think it was overlooked by a lot of people despite having some really good sales that made Bethesda beg Arkane to make a sequel (Arkane said it won't make a sequel).

BEATEN! This game is...wow. Beautiful on every conceivable level.

Mark of the Ninja:
Hunting down Kelly, one of the guys who trashed our ninja hideout. This game is really pimp, which I'd expect from the people who brought us Shank.

the T-rex was awesome. The next level was a VR sim that I broke out of, which then led to a genetics lab. The zombie-style mutants were no big deal, until they grew snake heads for arms or Gorilla bits and became a whole different problem. #-o

Metal Gear Rising Demo:
Played it. Beat it. Pre-ordered it. You know how epic the whole sword-cutting thing was in the trailers? Those trailers were damn dirty liars, because it is WAY COOLER THAN THAT OH MY GOD I AM THE GOD OF CUTTING THINGS AAAAHHHHHH.

The dog-robot boss was a load of bullcrap, though. Would have been cool if it didn't primarily use unblockable attacks that could take out a quarter of your health is you didn't dodge at exactly the right moment. Much more fair on Easy, though.

I also forgot to add, while the boss was bullcrap, when you knock it down to like 7% health, you get a prompt when you get up close to the boss. Hitting it will first cause Raiden to pick up the dog-bot by the neck, stab the hell out of it, and toss it in the air. Then the game goes into bullet time and lets the player personally cut the sonuva bitch to ribbons. So while the boss was unfair, they at least had the foresight to add in some catharsis at the end.

Day 4 is officially cleared. Boss battle against a 'Prototype God' that liked to switch between 3 sets of arms each time I cut a pair off. Pain in da backside but a worthy challenge.
Started Day 5. It started off on a good note since I now have a dual-sword style as an alternate weapon.

Went and busted the bunker and met angel.

I thought she was an A.I? Didnt expect her to be a siren, that means there are 3 out of 4 on pandora? Popular planet, Especially if Steele was a siren too, given the eyes and tatoos and such, that makes 4
Seriously that satellite just lost all my interest...

Also, sh!t got dark. Surprise Surprise.

Six sirens. And yeah, it's never been confirmed but most people assume Steele is a Siren. (It doesn't help she uses the prototype design for Lilith) Jack mentions in an ECHO recording that he knows who three of them are, foreshadowing, well, what you said.

So, after storming through "holy crap this is Fyrestone!?" and taking out a hyperion loader two wilhelms tall, I unlocked the final mission (I think) But I want to do all the sidequests first, so I wont be doing it for a while. I checked on Jacks grandmother too. That one threw me for a loop.

Finished days 5 and 6, which involved Fighting the leader of the Black spider clan (who was an 80 foot tall spider demon with boils that proved to be her undoing) and my evil twin (Both in regular and ultra-evil forms.).
Up to Day 6 for Ayane.

Beaten
I wasn't sure they would make up for the horrible campaign finale of part one like that, surprise surprise. Now, a most difficult decision: True Vault Hunter Mode? Or New Character? I want to reap the rewards of playthrough 2, and stand a chance against all the overcapped bosses, but I also want to gunzerk, and mechromance. Hard decision to be made...

If you're going for TVHM, keep in mind, I have a level 50 Mechromancer and I'm always happy to help. I say that because you will be asking for help.

Ninja Gaiden Sigma:
Killed Alma, it was hella easier. I'm playing on Ninja Dog difficulty, because this game is just dirty sometimes. Would be better if it didn't have to start with Ayane being a bitch. This is why everyone likes Kasumi better!

Zone of the Enders HD:
BEATEN! Man that ending was weak. The game was great, but the ending was actually worse then the ending of ME3. (Before the extended cut)

Zone of the Enders: The Second Runner HD:
Looks nicer, plays better, and those anime cutscenes are actually pretty tight. Just got strapped into Jehuty by the hot redhead chick. Now let's go have some revenge!

I have so been mulling over picking up Zone of the enders. Like Metal gear, it was "that one game my uncle had that's name I couldn't remember. Hard to believe he had so many games with such depth, now all he plays is COD, I have tried to save him, I truly have.

Borderlands 2: The quest for easter eggs

Was told of 2 easter eggs in the caustic caverns. I got to one, but I cant reach the other one. Not strong enough yet.

Metal Gear Rising Demo

I spent literally 15 minutes just running around like, "CAN I CUT THIS? OMG! I CAN!" Boss was tricky, how exactly do I "parry'? It prompts me to, but I dont understand.I wish I was financially stable enough to pre order it and pay for it gy release, dat grey fox...

Grey Fox better be DLC...

You could have just copied and pasted what I said about it. Though from the looks of things, you pretty much did...

Parrying requires hitting square the moment the enemy hits you. It requires really good timing.

Dragon age II
Finally got back to this. Finished the companion question 'Dissent' and watched Ander's make a horrible mistake. In a truly character-defining moment, I reloaded my last save and prevented him from making said mistake. 8)
This then led to a love scene between my character and Anders. And yes, my character in DA2 is female. :x

Well, I started on a freebie download of DC Universe Online for the PS3. My character's name is Darga Shadow and he is a protege of the Joker. Darga Shadow has super speed and martial arts ability. I'm a noob at Level 5. So if you see a dude in all black hanging out in Gotham City, that me.

Aliens: Colonial Marines (PC/Steam)
I'm about 2 hours into the campaign, going to try multiplayer this afternoon now that the game is out to see how that works. Hard to review it when no one is on. I'm playing what I'm assuming was after a 500 meg patch on Saturday as I've not had near the AI problems that other people have had with the game and it's been running smooth.

Mass Effect 3 (PS3)
Way passed where I was at palaven. At this point I've just finished Tuchunka now.

Saint's Row The Third (Steam/PC)
More trophies. Hit level 20 plus so I can see collecitbles now and went and grabbed all of them. I'll eventually get back to the story line... I think.

Persona 4 Golden (PS Vita)
I played this almost every day while I was up in NYC visiting my son. I'm up past the finals in July now. When I put it down last I'd just hit May but then started over on the easiest setting because I didn't feel like grinding battles for levels.

Transformers: Legends (Android)
I've got all the tier 1's now and I'm not seeing any gaps in my tier 2's but the 3's and 4's are just not coming. I'm trying to pop on this at least once a day now.

Dungeons and Dragons Online (PC/Steam)
Flagged more toons for raids with my wife, worked on a few lowbies trying to get a friend up to endgame raiding level.

Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's edge
GAME.OVER!
I now know what it is to beat a Modern Ninja Gaiden game, and even on 'normal' most I think I'm suffering from PTSD. :BOOM:
Having ground my teeth and resisted flinging my gamepad through a window on normal difficulty, I shudder to think what the harder difficulties are like. I'll try the harder levels later, but for now I need to reclaim my sanity and play something with a more reasonable difficulty. Overall, fun game and from what I understand, a more worthy sequel than the original NG3 release.

Ah crap...

:BOOM:

*Yet again, his entrails form the following message."

New Super Mario Bros U
Cleared the water world and halfway through the ice world. I'm too lazy to look up the names.

Kirby Mass Attack
not sure what the leveling scheme is, but up to level 6.

Dragon AGe 2
Act II is done. Working on side quests for act 3. Helped Fenris find his sister and end the threat of his former Master. My character's family has shrunk considerably. I'm also helping Anders find a potential cure for his dual personality problem.

Nano Assault Neo
Cleared Zeta cluster.

DC Universe Online-level 15 (although leveling up in this game is a fast process), Darga Shadow, Martial Artist. My character is developing into an assassin type (collected 4 PvP bounties already) and "gang war" sniper. Should I try to develop other weapons skills (pistols, dual handed, etc)?
