Well, final bosses aren't meant to be easy...

[BeastProwl]

Because everyone appreciates cheap one hit kills. Did I mention I beat him on my first try? He wasn't that hard, I was just impressed by how many moves he had. I probably didn't even see them all.

Borderlands 2

I just can't stay away from this cruel cruel mistress...

Got the level cap increase. The campaign is officially ten times more difficult and frustrating. Normal psychos take at least four headshots with my best sniper before dropping, and my shots are stacked pretty high...

Boom Beum took forever to kill, Ironically, the canon wasnt as strong when I got in the pilot's seat, and I was forced out, only to have the thing hijacked and turned back on me! Needless to say I cut my losses and ran like an invisible bitch...

It took me about an hour to get were 30 minutes should have gotten me. Im in for one helluva ride full of ups and downs...

Oh if only you knew some dashing level 53 Legendary Mechromancer. Perhaps one who has no issue spamming that high-end Badaboom, one who can hit a target with a shotgun by firing blindly at the ground.

Im pretty sure she knows my PSN...

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance Difficulty.

Beat Bladewolf. This difficulty is flat out overwhelming.
Even If I cheat and use the "Cut Everything" wig, it's hard to keep my electrolites up, especially if those damn gorillas come into play.

A) Female pronouns? You know we're talking about me, right? And what I can and will do to your face given the first opportunity?

B) No I don't know your PSN.

Your the one who strung me along with the "If only you knew a Legendary Mechromancer bit.

And I thought I had my PSN in my sig, huh. Fixed.

Test Drive Unlimited 2 [PC[:
Did some more exploring, aimlessly driving and loving it. Playing with a wheel is beyond rad.

Took a page out of Giant Bomb's book and found a low-level character to stalk. I followed him around, flashing my lights (but not honking; that would have been rude), and presenting him with duel requests. He drove off, I gave chase, and eventually, he disconnected.

He had a chance to make some easy money and experience; his loss. Well, you know what they say: if you can't take the heat, get out of my server.

Borderlands 2

I got Krieg to level 9 or 10 today, cant remember...
Anyway, OMFG DEM SKILLS! **** man!
Hes like Brick, but he can throw his fists! I can't wait to light the fuse...

Skyward Sword

Got the Hylian Shield. Cool right?
It is cool, but it takes a bit of strategy out of the game. A bit.

[Wigglez]

Sleeping Dogs

GTA but in China. And the fighting is Batman Arkham style. It's alright. And I'm playing it because my brother got into watching the story on Youtube. So I thought it might be good. I've only done a few missions here and there. I'm not far in it at all

[Shadowman]

Lego The Goddamn Batman:
Both Lego batman games were available for less than $10 (Actually $12.50 for the both of them) so I decided why not?

Finished the first chapter as Batman and Robin, putting away Riddler, Two-Face, Poison Ivy, Clayface and Mr. Freeze. Now I'm working on doing the first villains chapter.

Borderlands 2:
Due to a series of snafus, I won't be getting Krieg until this weekend. On the other hand, I did some Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode with BeastProwl there. We both gained a level (This was just before Krieg came out, mind you) and yet for some reason all I could think of was the theme song to M*A*S*H...

[Wigglez]

Sleeping Dogs

I've gotten pretty far in the past couple of days. The last mission I've done was do a job with Jackie after being full fledged members of the Sun On Yee and had him arrested when the mission was over. I have all the races done, and all of the favors. I think I'm getting pretty close to finishing the game. Maybe...

Borderlands 2:
Krieg is stupidly overpowered. His Action skill can cut down bosses in a matter of seconds. he's only at level 22 right now, and he's already found two orange weapons. Krieg is awesome.

I know right? Wait till you get him up there, his badass psycho skill takes it to a whole other 'level'


heh

...I will punch you. In the face.

Lego Batman:
Cleared all three Bat-Chapters, as well as the first two villain chapters. I've unlocked Joker and Harley, and that was really my only major long-term goal. I'm deciding between collecting all the mini-kits when I finish the final villain chapter, or just moving on to the second game.

Oh, if only there were a Batman villain with a quirk that could help me decide things...

[Wigglez]

Sleeping Dogs

I finished the game. I beat all the of the main cases and Triad missions. I also beat all of the side missions Except all of the drug busts. The story wasn't bad. I would say good even. Just not great. If Sleeping Dogs 2 is made, I might consider it.

Transformers: Fall of Cybertron

I haven't been playing this a lot like I have with WFC. I've been playing multiplayer mostly though and have all 4 classes up to level 21. Soon I'm going to hit Prime and have to restart the leveling up again, but I'm down.

[Twitchythe3rd]

Borderlands 2

Gunzerker is up to level 20 now.

Sidequests, glorious sidequests. Went back and did the ones I had skipped (Tiny Tina's tea party and the Cult of the Firehawk specifically) before grabbing all the available sidequests in Sanctuary. Of the 8-10ish picked up, I've finished maybe two.

Threshers are the bane of all existence and must be purged from this world in fiery genocide.

Wait until your first run-in with Terra. Theres a reason the mission is titled "You will die. Seriously."

Borderlands 2

Had some fun with BeastProwl last night. We ran around shooting most anything that moved and saw the double rainbow.

I'm also sorry for getting you killed more times than necessary and still have one of your purple guns for whenever you want it back.

Terramorphus doesn't count, he's not even meant to be fought solo. But, like Crawmerax before him, they found a way. Or, this time around, several ways, at least one per class.

Lego Batman:
BAT-BEATEN! Finished up the campaign, decided not to go back and get 100%.

Lego Batman 2:
Superman lost his ability to fly thanks to overexposure to the freaking Joker Gundam's kryptonite core, (At least temporarily) but Batman took away the robot's flight as well. Fought through the subways as the World's Finest, next up, stopping it from taking down City Hall.

In the meantime, I unlocked a bunch of characters, up to and including Harley Quinn, Ra's al Ghul, Brainiac, and General Zod.

Borderlands 2:
BeastProwl gave me orange weapons, a Conference Call and an Unkempt Harold. He has now been canonized as a Saint. I'd build a golden statue of him, but I don't actually have any gold. So...tinfoil, got lots of that.

We ran some missions together, nothing especially crazy, a couple of missions from the Captain Scarlett and Hammerlock DLCs. It's what I did after he went to bed that's special:

Conference Call + Gaige's Close Enough Skill + A couple hundred stacks of Anarchy = Terramorphus is dead by my hand and my hand alone. Which reminds me, BP, there's a Slayer of Terramorphus class mod for Assassin in my storage, with your name on it.

BP's been running around and giving me stuff as well.

Killed W4R-D3N (or however you spell that damn things name) for my Commando while I was AFK for a couple hours and gave me an orange SMG for my Gunzerker (which when combined with another, corrosive damage SMG and Gunzerking makes robots melt real gud).

Many props to you, good sir. I'll return the favors some day.

Come to think of it, even after giving me that Unkempt Harold, he was still using one himself. Meaning he had two, when most people would be lucky to even see one.

BeatProwl confirmed as wizard.

Borderlands 2:
Tried Terramorphous on TVHM...then hit a snag. The issue isn't that I can't kill him, the issue is that we can't seem to kill each other. He'll he'll fling me over the edge, which restores him to full health and restarts the battle...but at the same time doesn't technically count as a proper death, so I retain all my Anarchy. He's bleeding me on money, but I get stronger each fight.

Then I hit the previously mentioned snag.

See, when he's at about half health, around that time, Deathtrap will despawn, and the Rock-throwing tentacles will pop up. You'd think that's the issue but that's not the issue. The issue is that Terramorphous will retreat...and now resurface. I can pinpoint his location underground by checking where it shakes the most, but he's not coming out, and I have to leave and re-enter the area just to resummon him.

It's frustrating, but can you blame him? When the mission says "You. Will. Die." they weren't talking about me.

[BeastProwl]

Thanks guys! Rally though, Ive been getting assloads of legendaries from friends m on a team with. We also farm together so we get legendaries to drop quite often. All of us have 'chance to drop rare loot" relics, plus theres four of us, and when we get one to drop we dupe it around (OMG CHEATING HURRR) since everyone worked for it. I mean, why fight over it?

Heres the kicker:
Between me, my friends, mr tourgue, and dem relics, I got about 11 legendaries just today, since everyone is so keen on duping their latest finds for everyone and no one fights over loot, Its like a golden gun charity!

Also Shadowman, That happened to Terra after you got UVHM and the patch that goes along with it. Its been happening to everyone, its some coding issue.

Metal Gear Rising-Jetstream

Beat it. Pretty cool, but **** if it aint short! Its like 70 minutes, cutscenes included. I hear the Bladewolf DLC is even shorter.
They should lower the prices on these. 10 bucks for 70 minutes of content, re-used levels and bosses?

Duping isn't actually considered cheating; Gearbox is aware of it and allow people to do it. Considering how rare Legendaries are otherwise, it would be a dick move of them to patch it out...

The weird thing is, it's only on TVHM, and I'm fairly certain he's the same in there as he is in Normal Mode.

Borderlands 2:
Finished the Hammerlock DLC in TVHM. In doing so, managed to find the Infinity! Wow, one of the very, very few Legendary weapons I've found on my own, and also one of the better ones!

Now let's talk about why that's a bad thing.

See, Infinity, no matter the variant, always has a magazine size of 1. As Gaige, if you want to spec into Ordered Chaos, you need to take the skill "Stronger, Lighter, Faster" which increases fire rate, but at the same time, decreases magazine size by 1% per point, up to 5%, or 9% if, like me, you're equipped with the Legendary Mechromancer class mod.

Math lesson: What's 91% of 1?

Answer: Trick question, bullets don't work in partial numbers, so the game rounds down. Meaning on Gaige, even with one point in the above-mentioned skill, the Infinity becomes unusable. This made me cry. Like a little girl.

"Why don't you respec out of Ordered Chaos." Anarchy Forever. That is my response to that.

Right now it's in my Shared Bank, it's going to my next character to hit 50, which at this point is a race between Krieg and Maya. Though it'll probably end up in Maya's hands anyway, since Krieg has a number of skills which favor Shotguns.
