Dragon AGe II
Game over!
REached endgame after my last post. Summary of events.
- Companion blew up the chantry, causing the mages to be blamed.
- When templars reacted to above action by killing the mages (who had nothing to do with the actual attack), I sided with the mages.
- My anti-mage companion joined the opposite team. The companion who committed the act rejoined my team since I chose to keep him alive.
- Fought my way out of the Gallows, but the lead mage I was protecting sacrificed himself to a demon to fight the templars. I ended up having to destroy him.
- The former companion and I had to fight and I killed him. (2 companions permanently gone)
- Reached the Templar leader, who had gone mad through a powerful artifact. Fought her and her army of lyrium empowered statues. She finally burnt herself out.
- The templars (who had just turned on their leader) allowed me and my crew to leave peacefully.
- Epilogue states we all left but separated one-by-one. Varric returned to tell the story, my character and her love interest are still out there somewhere.

Overall, I enjoyed this game more than I expected once I got over the differences from the superior first game. Hoping DAIII returns to the more RPG focused style, but won't complain either way.

Metal Gear Rising - Revengeance

Played through twice, total playtime is 20+ hours.

- Collected all ID chips.

- Found all MIB's.

- Unlocked Armor Breaker.

- Unlocked wooden longsword and HF machete.

- Unlocked Wig A and Wig B.

- Completely leveled up skills, life and BP gauges.

Overall, a very addictive game, and much more than your regular hack-n-slash. The Zandatsu system adds a certain depth to the gameplay that DW games and even Tenchu doesn't quite equal. The story, while convoluted, doesn't distract you from what's important: hacking limbs and grabbing "nano-repair clusters" from the enemies' guts.

I'd say it's just the right length for a game of its genre, and VR missions is a welcome feature, adding tons of replay value, not to mention unlockables, trophies, harder difficulties and numerous Easter eggs.

Borderlands 2

Assassins Creed Revelations

I've played Assassins Creed, AC2 and AC Brotherhood. I also have the comic that deals with the Russian guy too. And now thanks to my sister, she convinced a friend of hers to borrow Assassins Creed Revelations. I've only done a few missions so far. But I'm going to play the crap out of this game. And my sister also is borrowing AC3. She'll let me play that after she's done and I would have played every AC game out except the Nintendo DS game and the one for Playstation Vita.

Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness: Episode 3:
BEATEN! Including Bonus Bosses Yog Modaigh and Molly the Were-Zom-Pire. Not to spoil anything, but if you read the written version on the site a couple years ago, the game ends the exact same way. In fact, the two stories aren't that different, at least at the most basic form.

Still working on the Seamstress's Lair and the Beginning of the End though. And waiting on Episode 4, obviously.

Metal Gear Rising.

Beaten, and then some!

Seriously, if you havnt already gotten this game, you should ASAP. Every level is WIN, every boss is amazing, and the last boss? YOU wont believe it, you will NOT see it coming. This game was, and will be again and again, awesome, forever.

[Wigglez]

Assassis Creed Revelations

I beat it. All I did were the main missions so I beat it fairly fast.

Assassins Creed 3

This game is amazing compared to the other AC games, especially with the fighting. And it turns out Daniel Cross from the comics is in the game also. That blew my mind. I just beat sequence 7 before I got on here. I would've kept playing but the game keeps freezing during the loadng screen and it f***s my playstation up. I need to find another copy so I could keep playing. I wanna finish the game so bad so I can play 4 when it comes out.

Borderlands 2

Beat the Captain Scarlet DLC.
Strictly story missions and message in a bottle missions though, nothing else. I'm lvl 49, and half an exp meter to the cap. I hope they pump out the level cap and new DLC at the end of this march...

VR Missions is ridiculously addictive. Sure, some of the harder ones make you want to throw kittens into a wood chipper, but making rank is especially satisfying when you finally do.

BTW, did you play the game in Normal or Hard? I struggled a bit in Normal during the Monsoon fight and final boss fight, but toughed it out and got a trophy/title for it (Samurai, I think).

I might go for Hard mode later, but not until I've upgraded my blades and perfected my blade mode and parrying skills.

I must be crazy...

Mega Man: Dr. Wily's Revenge (Game Boy)

Replaying it, but attempting to Perfect Run every single stage, No-Damage Buster-Only (don't ask why). Anyway, succeeded for the first 4 bosses, namely Ice Man, Fire Man, Elec Man and Cut Man in that order (though Cut Man still needs to be recorded...). Wily Castle is a pain, but doable, except for one thing: Quick Man from Mega Man 2, you may know him. He does have a pattern in his movements, can be lead, but his boomerangs always screw me up! I can't determine when he throws them! Any tips would be appreciated.

DC Universe Online

I'm going to attempt to play this again. Before I moved out, I couldn't play it because the router we had was weak and my PS3 was like almost 30 feet away from the router. But this time I'm going to try again with a different modem. Its not far from my modem and the signal is stronger. If this doesn't work, I'll be a little mad.

Too bad that's the only system it's available for, huh?

If you need me, I'll be in the PC version.

I already have it for PS3 so I don't think I should buy it again. And I don't think my laptop is good enough to play DCUO on. I'll just stick to the PS3 version

If you buy it again, you have been seriously ripped off because it's a free game.

[Wigglez]

I know it's free to play. But you don't have to pay for the game itself? Hmm. Like I said though, I don't think my laptop is good enough to play the game on.

Crysis

I just beat the game on Delta (the hardest difficulty). I only need 2 more trophies which are throw 20 enemies and throw 10 objects at enemies and I'll have the platinum trophy.

You can download DC Universe directly to your PS3 for free if you have 16+ GBs of free space. It will take 7 or more hours to download, but it is a freebie. However, you to pay for extra stuff (e.g. you can't be a Lantern on the freebie version), do not know all the details myself, but I considering it (especially with a free trail).
Wigglez, tell me when you got the game downloaded and your character's name. I will happily work with you, or hunt you down like a dog and kill you(depending on my character's mood).

PS I actually experimented with PS Home thing. Is it just me, or people treat you much better DC Universe overall than at Home, and half of them wants to play the troll and kill you.

[Shadowman]

Of course not, otherwise it wouldn't be free-to-play.

I already know about DCUO because I've had it for about 2 years now. But I got it before it was announced to be free to play so I ended up buying it for $60. I should've waited. But I already have a few trophies from it and have a Green Lantern character. Add me on PSN, we'll rock it together.

Of course not, otherwise it wouldn't be free-to-play.

I thought you had to pay for it first and then play with the free account. But I guess it's not like that. I bought it before it became f2p

My only character (I still a newbie) is a level 20 bad guy named Darga Shadow, so may I propose a duel sometime this weekend. Pick your neighborhood, then it is your Lantern vs my assassin. Oh yeah, my character is a backshooting (or back-hypnodarting) ambush predator wannabe scumbag who will happily kill while you are fighting something else, preferably someone nasty that will deal a lot of damage. What can I say, my character is spineless troll-like coward who picks on the weak and wounded. Its a dog-eat-dog world out there nowadays, I died at the hands of Level 30 trolls andI stink at head to head combat, thus I developed a niche for backstabbing and collecting bounty. If we to team up one day, we might as well know each other strengths and weaknesses.
Just tell me your Lantern's name and I will find you.

Anyone playing Tomb Raider? I've heard some very good things about it. Just got the game yesterday, but I haven't found time to play it yet. Will make some time for it tomorrow.

DC Universe Online

I've played it. It doesn't make my PS3 lose internet or anything and it works fine. I've been trying to play some level 30 missions with my Green Lantern guy. I haven't really touched my level 30 villain. I'm on free to play so I don't get them super awesome missions which needs to change. I'm gunna try to get a years worth of a subscription so I can get the Oa missions and stuff
