Mega Man Xtreme 2: Soul Eraser
GAME OVER BEATEN. Sigma has been defeated once more, X and Zero have saved the day, and more low-quality translations pass the screen (with grammatical errors no less). I know Capcom is notorious for that but come on, some are bad even for their standards (Reploid Research "Lavatory" comes to mind...)
Anyway, this game was a trip. When you pick this rare gem up, don't expect a straight port. New levels, old Mavericks have new attacks, Iris from X4 makes an appearance due to it being set between X3 and X4, the parts system debuts and it has a fully playable Zero.

Right, back to looking for Mega Man V for the Game Boy, that damn game keeps eluding me. In the mean time, Kid Icarus: of Myths and Monsters will provide some fun.

Assassin's creed: Revelations
Just met Sofia and retrieved the 1st Masyaf key.
On a much more self-rewarding note, finally managed to track and kill the cowardly templar den commander. That guy was a pain.

Spider-Man: Edge of time
Loving this game. The gameplay itself is flawed and I've experienced visual glitches and audio cutouts, but the story and voice-acting is surprisingly good to this point.
Just defeated future Black cat and attempting to have the two spider-men switch places in the time-stream.

RE 6

Completed all campaigns. At 25+ hours, it's a pretty short game despite having 4 different character viewpoints to follow, and seven characters to use.

The Jake stage was IMO the coolest. Being able to use your hands to fight adds more versatility in combat. That Ustanaz this is probably the hardest boss in the whole game though (to me, at least).

What I could do without are the stupid QTE's. Damn button inputs are so unintuitive and nearly impossible to do in time. The frakking camera also works against you, disorienting you while you're struggling with the damn controls and trying to figure out which way to go. Escaping from the underwater tunnel in the last part of Chris' campaign was the worst experience. Both Piers and Chris look the same with the camera pulled back (short hair, olive drab clothing), and oftentimes I wasn't sure who was the one I was controlling.

Next is to try out The Mercenaries. Not sure if it'll be as fun a using Sheva and her infinite-arrow bow in RE5, but it's worth a try.

it's just the beginning, you will really the hate the others....



Recently i was playing a lot of game that i didn't have time to post my progress in them...

Half Life 2 Episdoe 2

i replayed that game twice just for developer commentary, and the second one for the the garden gnome achievement, i am not a fan of the ending, Valve did a good job in killing Eli but i didn't like that it all ended with me on the floor and Alyx sobbing next to her father's corpse, Half Life 2's Ending was better, it made me wonder what will happen next, and Episode 1 also did a good job.

Batman Arkham City

finished the whole game again in story mode plus, got all those friggin Riddler trophies, finished all side mission, Harley DLC challenges, 100% completion!


Crysis 2

i played a lot through this game, the last fights with the ceph made me like "weph!", now that civilians are escaping New York through trains the ceph will do anything to stop the, they sent that big Tripod Bio Machine thingy, i attempted top beat it, but it kills me, especially with his friends spotting me throwing a C4 and alert him to shoot me before i detonate it! i will try a different strategy then the one i am using already next time I play

Star Wars: The Old Republic:
I saw 1337W422102 playing this on Steam, and somehow the conversation ended up about how, despite many things, the game is actually really awesome. Like how Jim Raynor is the Supreme Chancellor of the Republic. Or how the only voice actor not in this game is Mel Blanc. It got me wanting to play the game, but I didn't have quite enough to pay the $30 for 60 more days in-game. I did have exactly enough for the Deluxe Addition, which adds 30 more days, though, as well as a bunch of neat in-game items. And it'll entitle me to more bonuses when the game goes F2P!

So far the only two I've put real effort into are my Consular and Bounty Hunter (Though I did spend a reasonable amount of time as my Smuggler and Knight) getting them to the end of Quesh (Turns out, all problems can be solved by throwing enough Jedi at it) and Balmorra respectively. I'm planning on playing enough of my Inquisitor so I can get to the Foundry flashpoint, because damn it, a certain meatbag-hating assassin is a boss in there and I want to see him again.

Yeah, was going to mention that. That's 100% for story mode, but you haven't really hit 100% until you've fully completed Riddler's Revenge.

Star Wars: The Old Republic:
I did the Foundry Flashpoint, the mission I bought the game for. I didn't finish it, mostly because HK-47 (!) can hit for upwards of 5k damage, and for some reason the Group Finder thought I was supposed to be a healer. (I am not a healer) The group just kind of disbanded. We did squeal like a bunch of schoolgirls when HK-47 (!) began talking, though.

AT LAST! I KILLED THAT DARN PINGER!
here is the strategy that brought me semi-instant victory:
when the giant Tripod thing...the Pinger (strange name, but it's based on it's "ping" ability that spots me when I'm cloaked) arrives at the subway station to stop the evacuation, Ceph grunts come to support him, they are what stopping me from flanking the Pinger. I must kill the Ceph Grunts, once the battle starts there two of them, i must keep away from Pinger to stop him from pinging me, and get the one of the Ceph grunts and stealth kill them, after getting rid of the grunts, i must wait a few seconds, every few seconds reinforcements arrive to help defend the subway, once they arrive the Pinger will be busy killing them, i take a SWARMER that can be found somewhere around the station and shoot the Pinger, YEAH!

after that, i escape and repeat, expect that this time, there are more ceph grunts, and it's either smart A.I or coincidence, made them ''defend'' the other swarmer laying around, the Pinger now pings more then ever. Anyway i killed the Pinger, after the Ceph realized their plan has failed, they of course have a plan B, which is bomb the building next to the subway station, i get the amazing scene of escaping the station and trying to get some people into the armed truck before the building comes down as an award for defeating the boss.

Now the evacuation from what was New York has moved to another place, and this time they will use Airships, here we go....

I would play PC games but I don't feel like upgrading my computer everytime a game comes out. Or I would download mods left and right. Did you know for Arkham City PC, someone made a mod where it's a Spawn skin?

Personally I don't use mods, I prefer to play the game the devs made. Someone called me crazy for it, for enjoying a game without modding it so much it's not even the same game. But then the same guy said Oblivion and New Vegas and Dragon Age were awful and designed solely to be modded, so what the hell does he know?

Sonic Adventure 2:
BEATEN! Not as good as a good Mario game, still fun, though. Even if I did have my rose-tinted glasses torn of, smashed, and the broken glass being jammed into my eyes.

DC Universe Online:
Okay, no real progress (My main is up to CR66, but that's about all) but oh my God we're getting Lairs.

Star Wars: The Old Republic:
My Consular is now rocking out on...Hoth. Hrm. I have not yet had to sleep inside a tauntaun for warmth.

Hmm. I need to move my PS3 closer to my router. And then get Legendary again. So far all I had for the DLC for DCUO were the Green Lantern and the Flash based Downloads. And the Christmas one. The last time I checked, I had so many snowballs I haven't thrown at people yet.

I haven't upgraded my PC (aside from hard drive space) for years. PC games really don't get enough dedication from developers. The games I buy seem to always be console ports and my computer easily maxes them out. Maybe I just overupgraded way back when. who knows?

Spider-Man Edge of Time
GAME.OVER!
I enjoyed this game. It had many, many flaws and some frustrating moments. It even gets self-referential when Spider-man (modern) asks why all his tasks are done in threes (switches, collections, etc) yet continues to do this.
But all is forgiven for the story and interplay between Spider-man and Spider-man 2099. I just had a lot of fun watching these two banter and play off each other and the story itself was decent enough to see me thorugh the game.
Not bad for only $10.

Crysis 2

GAME OVER! i mean game finished....that was really bumpy ride, this is one of the few games that have a story and an ending, i thought the Linear FPS Genre is doomed because of all of them being the same (tell me the diffidence COD, Battlefield, Medal of Honor) and their B-Movie Storylines (Terrorists, Bombs, Attack, War, etc..) But at least there is a Linear FPS with good story.

I Have my Fingers Crossed, i am trying to get my hands on Borderlands 2 in Libya......

[Shadowman]

Earthworm Jim 3D:
it's on my games list and I haven't beaten it. So...yeah. 16:9 resolution is available by default, which is nice, most older games don't allow that without messing with the ini.

Completed Memory damn near flawlessly, all marbles, just one udder missing, zero lives lost. Woo.

Chrono Cross:
Decided to start over, this time using a guide to make sure I don't miss anything. Went to the alternate universe (No goatees!) and turned down Kid's offer for a team-up, only so I could recruit Leena instead. (Kid can be recruited later, anyway) Next, on to Fossil Valley. This game gets a bad rap for not being a "true" sequel to Trigger, but Cross almost constantly references the first game. (I gave a fangirl squee when I heard Cross' victory fanfare, Lucca's Theme)

Donkey Kong Country 3 (GBA port)
GAME COMPLETED! I had this one laying around for a while, so why not? Just a few Banana Bird short after I gave up on the insanely long Simon Says puzzles. But thanks to some "cheating" (I used the numeric keypad plus Notepad) I finally got the job done: 103%.

By the way, I'm now Perfect Running the Mega Man Game Boy games I have, meaning no damage and Buster only (got the idea from YouTube). Thing is, already I've hit a roadblock: the Changkey Makers or Hotheads and their remarkable aim. Anybody know of a fool-proof tactic to get past them without glitches or special weapons?

[Rex Prime]

Since Borderlands 2 Nor Transformers FOC hit the libyan stores i picked up that old Starcraft II Disc and continued my old save, i finished that game but that was a few years ago and the game is worth a replay, and i bought The Amazing SpiderMan, i heard it isn't like most Movie Tie-in Crap

Starcraft II

Grabbed that old save of mine, finished the train raid and picked up another Artifact from the Protoss, i helped tosh to get Terrazine from guess who? The Taldarim (stupid protoss faction) finished the first mission in the crystal Zeratul gave me, Won two skirmish battles too

The Amazing Spider-Man

finished the first two chapters, i got hang of the really close camera, it's too close to Spider-Man at the first, but after i get hang of it it actually becomes a positive thing, as it really makes me feel i am Spider-Man, or at least let me say wow when i first began roaming the city, i already collected enough comic pages for two full Spider-Man comics, old times....

Infamous 2

I already played the first game and beat it twice, once with the good ending and once with the bad ending. I'm playing 2 now and I already beat that once. Now I'm playing it again for the bad ending. I'm gunna trying to platinum it which shouldn't be hard. It seems alot easier than trying to platinum 1 Which I'm still trying to do. After, I'm gunna play Festival of Blood. I know it doesn't go with the other 2 games and this is just some bulls*** that Zeke makes up for some stupid reason, but I'm gunna 100% that too (it doesn't have a platinum trophy on PS3).

[The Happy Locust]

I always lose track of where I left off. So let's try my luck.

Xenoblade Chronicles
Helped Melia survive her trial in the temple. Afterwards, went on a scavenger hunt for supplies to restore Colony 6. The colony is now at level 2 restoration. Will hit level 3 when I get more time.
Returned to the High Entia capital and pleaded my case to the Emperor. Afterwards, found he had left to Prison on his own. My lead character's vision says this was a bad idea, so we decided to go after him. Too bad we have to unlock seals on the gateway before we can reach the island.
Oh, and the Mechon have launched a full scale assault.

Assassins creed Revelations
After crashing a party dressed as a Lute player, made friends with a royal family member, who directed me to a possible templar influence. Incited a riot to gain entry to an armory and found that the templars have been stockpiling.
Elsewise, all dens are now assigned master assassins and I was granted an unbreakable armor for my trouble. Found the lost pages of a deceased assassin, found his tomb under the Hagia Sofia and got ANOTHER unbreakable armor set. Whee!

[Wigglez]

Infamous 2

I beat it with evil karma and now I have to play it a third time because I didn't set the difficulty to hard before restarting it. I just need 2 more trophies to go to get the platinum.

[The Happy Locust]

Xenoblade Chronicles
Made it to Prison island and found that the prisoner was a giant. I released the Giant so that he could power up my blade. I then made short work of the attacking Mechon but this revealed a startling secret. Also watched someone else die. Well, you win some and you lose some.

Assassins Creed: Revelations
On the prince's behalf, took out a traitor. Only problem is that when I killed him, I found out he wasn't a traitor but was trying to bring down the enemy by pretending to work with them. Oops.
Side mission wise, found the 4th Masyaf key in an offshore tower that involved a falling rock puzzle. From there, Relived one of Altair's memories from when he was 82. So I'm reliving a genetic memory of an ancestor who is reliving the genetic memory of another ancestor.

At some point this will go Inception on me and we'll find the entire assassins creed story is taking place in the far future and is the result of a 2205 assassin reliving Desmond's life.

[Shadowman]

Actually, Ezio is confirmed to not be descended from Altair, nor is Conner.

That's impossible. I haven't played Revelations yet so I can't play 3 yet. But How are they accessing their DNA memory if it's not in their DNA? That's crazy talk.

Dishonored
I've played this and beat it. And with only 37% of the trophies. I totally love this game. My favorite power is the devouring swarm where you can summon a bunch of rats and they attack nearby enemies. My brother is playing it now but when he gets done, I'm going to go through a second play through by killing nobody.

I'm with Wigglez. In context of the story, that defies all established continuity and explanation of genetic memory.
