Darksiders
Game.BEATEN!
25 hours worth of gameplay and I've successfully completed my mission.
This game held my interest long enough for me to complete it and a game composed of nothing but Zelda-style dungeons is always welcome. The ending battle was anti-climactic, especially after the tushy-whoopin' I received against the soul arbiter. Overall, a solid 7/10 game. Moving on.

CastleVania: Aria of Sorrow
Found the one door I forgot to take and that led to 15% more map area. Ran into Yoko and Graham again. No new mobility abilities but plenty of area left to explore.

GTA V

Seeming how a s*** load of people haven't started playing this yet and it was a big hype, I won't spoil anything I've done. However, I will say that Trevor and Michael aren't friends anymore and I'm more than half way through the game.

GTA V

Playing the game, I beat the main story, and am currently doing side missions and such.

I'm not doing all of the side missions, but I've been doing all of the strangers and freaks missions as soon as they pop up before I hit the main story. I can't seem to get to the third Dom S&F mission though because I can't find a helicopter to get on top of that building he's on.

GTA V
I beat it. It was a good ass game with a good ass story. I picked option C. Just 1 thing though, would the gameplay be different if you picked either option A or B? Maybe. I just need to get all of the collectables and do the random events and stuff and I'll 100% the story mode. Now I'm going to wait 'till GTA Online hits and I'll do a crap load of gangster s*** with my character. It's also time time to dive back into Skyrim. Oh! And appearently, if you flip cops off, they start chasing you. I did this as Franklin on the highway. I saw a cop car sitting behind a sign so I stopped right in front of them and gave them the finger. Their sirens started to go and I gained a star. I was like "Oh no..."

Same with me I can't find on either, but I'm going for the 100% so I want to get the side missions done.

CastleVania: Aria of Sorrow
More exploring. Purposefully ignoring anything that looks like a boss battle or story-point in favor of exploration. Found the arena area and got the Balore and Giant Bat soul. I now have all the required special ending souls.

CastleVania: Lords of Shadow
Found and successfully took down a titan using the power of QTE. Up to chapter 3. My new friend didn't fare so well and the Black knight was not happy about it. But I now have a context for this fun image.

Borderlands 2
Level 72, OP8.
This game will be the death of me! I just cant stop! I got 2 Saturns to spawn today! AAAAAAAHHH!!!!

Theres still 3 more confirmed DLC's too! Help me overcome this..this... Ah, who am I kidding, the new boss's loot drop is almost as satisfying as Craw's!

Mega Man Legends:
Picked up the Yellow Refractor, then ran a crap-ton of sidequests. Then I got a boat from a guy who totally wasn't an evil mad scientist and I think we all learned a little something about judging people by their appearances.

CastleVania: Aria of Sorrow
Finished exploring and at 97.7% map area. Went to the throne room for the final boss fight, which was extremely easy.
But by the power of wiki, I found the magic combination lock that allowed me to continue the game and get my not-evil backside handed to me by a guy with a whip. Whoops.... Let's try that again later.

CastleVAnia: Lords of Shadow
replayed some earlier levels to get a few upgrades. I didn't like this game at first but it really is growing on me. Makes me wonder if I would actually enjoy a GoW game if I ever played one.
Back to this game, left the Lycan Lands for the Vampire Villa. Had to chase a 'chupacrabra' who stole my stuff, then fought an ogre that looks nothing like Shrek

Spyro the Dragon

A classic best played on the original system.

Rescued all the dragons and collected all the gems on the first world. Missing one egg from the Town Square level. Went back for the thief but couldn't find him.

If thats the level I think your talking about, the only thief I remember in it resides high up on the map in an "out of bounds" area of sorts along with a dragon if I recall correctly. You need to find a way up top something tall and fly around to him. Its vague I know, but its all I got.

Devil May Cry

"I should have been the one to fill your dark soul with LIIIIIIIGHT!!!!"
Why did I laugh so hard?
OK, Mundas is dead, Trish is ok, and did I really just...a bi-plane? WHAT!?
Roll credits, 10/10 Im in tears.

Devil May Cry 2

DEMON HELICOPTERS!
I dont even...

I can get up there fine, I just didn't go after him right away. Went back around after getting the gems and such but he wasn't there.

Terraria 1.2

Or, MY LIFE HAS MEANING AGAIN.

I made a brand new character and world. Barely scratched the surface, as there's a LOT of new stuff to mine and mobs to kill.

In an act of vengeance and possible insanity, I went on a night-long crusade to rid the world of giant spiders.

CastleVania: Aria of Sorrow
Game beaten!
We have a game that proves that just because you are the personification of all evil doesn't mean you're a bad person.
I got the best ending but nowhere near completion on souls.
This game is either doing something very right or very wrong because more than once I found myself running through areas yelling "Give me your souls damnit!". Just something to think about.

CastleVania:Lords of Shadow
Making more progress. Up to the castle of the vampire and just beat an extremely annoying young girl in a board game.

BioShock Infinite
This finally finished downloading (legally, you accusing type persons) so I thought I'd give it a go. It's a good thing I know this game is good because my first experience left a HORRIBLE first impression. This may not be entirely the game's fault but I experienced no less than 3 game-breaking glitches before ever leaving the lighthouse.
Glitch 1: After ringing the bells, the ambient sound went out. Saw the flashing lights but that was it.
Glitch 2: After the chair showed up, I found I couldn't get into it. The use command wasn't showing. I was literally stuck at the beginning of the game.
Glitch 3: Attempted to reload the first area to get past the earlier glitches. Got stuck on loading screen for 10 minutes before finally using task manager to kill the game.

I tried it again the next day and it seemed to run much smoother. Entered columbia, won a raffle, didnt' get to claim my prize because I'm apparently the devil in disguise. Fought my way through the first level transition.

XCOM: Enemy Unknown

I've had to start this game, and then restart it twice because I'm too used to autosaves and this game gives you that option, it just doesn't start it out like that unless you pick it at the beginning of the game. But the third time (with the autosave), I'm pretty far. I did a s*** load of missions and researched and built a s*** load of stuff. And I've been doing the missions with my highest ranking people so I can keep having them go up.

But then, I got to where I tried to go into the aliens base with all of my highest ranking people (I also got it to where it's 6 people in a team) AND THEY ALL F***ING DIED!! So now I won't being doing that mission for a while... But now I gotta rank up a bunch of more people and try that again with more stuff researched and built including weapons (of coarse).

That's XCOM, baby!

Also, protip? Satellites. Satellites everywhere. Any country with a Satellite over it, won't get attacked during Abduction missions. With a Satellite over every country, Abduction missions just stop happening.

CastleVania:Lords of Shadow.
It's been a while since I ever just picked a game and focused on it. I'm surprised how much progress I'm making lately.
Short summary, went through the vampire's castle. Defeated a Commander vampire, then got to meet the Lord of the Vampires herself. Battle ensued that was underwhelming but had a worthwhile and epic conclusion. Got my new power-up.
The next chapter involved flaming scarecrows, a witch-woman who's presence is under-utilized in this game, and an enchanted music box. Currently in the Titan's graveyard.

I don't know about you, but I made sure to have Bloody Tears going in the background during the fight with Carmilla. And I almost never put on my own background music.

Speaking of both topics, I see your Bloody Tears and raise you my own.

Terraria 1.2

Decided to have another go with my good character. Through the magic of friends and teamwork I got the materials needed to craft a whole bunch of upgrades to my gear.

Devil May Cry 2
Beaten...?
Ok, now I guess I have to play through it as lucia. yay?
She actually controlls very well, and her combos feel less esident evil with a sword and wall jumps and more original, wich is nice. Just wish the story made sense. Some say Devil May Cry 2 was retconned, others say it takes place after 4...What...Idont see it as taking place anywere since im still playing it,

So I just beat that giant cobra and im on my way to follow dante more I guess.

CastleVania: Lords of Shadow
GAME.BEATEN!
Completed the main game plus the two DLC sets.
My feelings on this game are mixed. At first, I was thrown off by the severe linearity of it, especially after coming off of DarkSiders II. But this game grew on me and I really did like the story.
What sours this for me is the final DLC boss battle. Fighting against a boss who should have been simply difficult but was instead extremely frustrating due to unclear range area attacks and moves that became un-dodge-able for no reason. I honestly threw up my hands, yelled "**** this!" and turned the difficulty to easy just to get it over with. Yes, I played through the entire game on hard and it was this battle that made me give up and just not care anymore. Not a good way to end the game.
sigh....

I didn't get too pissed at the Forgotten One, but then, I knew ahead of time what I was getting into.

Assassin's Creed III:
Been playing this...a lot. I managed to avoid getting executed, thanks to my obsession with hiring Assassin Recruits. Now I'm running around doing as many sidequests as I can. Also, naval combat is awesome.

Bioshock Infinite
Now that Lords of Shadow is off my list, this is my new game of focus.
Reached monument tower, found a strange girl. We high-tailed it out of there but ran into a nice bird that just wanted to destroy me. Just a sweet thing.
Once fall to a flying ocean later ( ), we're making our way to a flying ship. Things have turned south on us as power supplies are running low and the only power source I can use is two levels in the opposite direction.
Walked into the middle of an insurrection and just reached the Hall of Heroes.

Assassin's Creed III:
BEATEN! Spoiler alert: America won its independence from the English. Also, while the world won't be ending in 2012 thanks to Desmond, the world might still end thanks to Juno. Still, that crazy bitch brought up a couple good points.

Resident Evil Revelations:
I bought this off of Steam because it was on sale and I am weak. Shot up some monster dogs as Chris, now off to find Jill...

Again.

Skyrim


Okay, so remember when I did that mission Where Mercer Frey and I searched for Karliah and then s*** pulled a twist? I finished those mission where I helped her and killed that clown Frey. I have the nightingale armor now and it's sweet. I still find uses for the thieves guild armor though because of the bonuses they give off, so I can still have certain advantages. And I did that mission where I returned the skeleton key. Shouldn't I have not done that mission? Anyway, I started the dawnguard missions and now I'm a vampire after returning vampire lady back to her castle. Tell me the pros and cons of that please?
