Hitman Absolution

Completed chapter 4 and 5. The new instinct system is going to be a bit of a pain until I unlock enough instinct meter upgrades to pass the guards before the meter runs out.

As I play through the game, I noticed there's less trial and error in play than in previous Hitman games, as you can now improvise via any of the new features such as feigning surrender before disarming the guard, point shooting a group of enemies, and even duking it out with the guard.

Your rank will of course be affected, but there's less of a need to restart from a checkpoint.

Fall of Cybertron

Why am I still playing this after beating all difficulties and unlocking all perks, data-logs and weapons? Transforming robots fighting on a metal battlefield, nuff said.

[Wigglez]

Dishonored

I beat the whole game without killing anybody, including the targets and didn't upgrade any of the powers. Now I gotta go through it again without killing or alerting anybody besides the targets. But it will be alot simpler this time because I can buy some powers now that I have the Mostly Steel And Flesh trophy. Using possession on people makes sneaking around alot easier than just hiding behind things and trying to climb on rooftops.

Borderlands

LVL 23, i am at a prefect state, i got good elemental weapons, a large backpack, my ol'Sniper, A Machine Gun, and a Tirple Rocket RPG (Fires three rockets per click), i manged to get through Mad Mel by sniping his Vehicle from above the ramp, because i found beating him in a "Fair" game of Vehicle vs Vehicle hard, since he got other vehicles spawning with him. Met Scooter in person at last, went to Patrica Tannis (Or was it Tennis?)the half mad woman that i recovered her Journal once and...what did i do for her else...i forgot that part.

Elder Scrolls V Skyrim

i can't believe i reinstalled that escapist paradise, but something brought me back to Skyrim, was it DragonBorn DLC? or didn't experience everything Dawngaurd has...but, well.
My Past Characters were beasts, but know i will settle for a Nord named Tyren, i am on my way up to High Hrothgar.

Patrica Tannis (Or was it Tennis?)the half mad woman that i recovered her Journal once and...what did i do for her else...i forgot that part.

1. It is Tannis.

2. She's not half mad. The second game mentions she has Aspergers, and that was before Pandora had its way with her. After that, well, what you see in the base game is her at her most stable. She is entirely mad.

3. Most likely it was the Vault Key.

Thanks, now i just bought Borderlands 2 (yay) but i am not launching that game until i finished Borderlands.
I Remembered what i did else "For Her", it was clearing her mine-site from ghosts.

[Shadowman]

I Remembered what i did else "For Her", it was clearing her mine-site from ghosts.

Took me a minute to remember that one, mostly because Guardians probably aren't ghosts. (Protip: Their shields are strong, but under that they're very brittle, and a good shock weapon will do them in quick)

Borderlands 2:
BEATEN! Again, sort of. On True Vault Hunter Mode, this time, so I've done with Story Mode twice over. Since I hit the level 50, the current cap, I kind of stopped doing side missions. I guess I'll do those when they increase the level cap. (Which the achievement for level 50 implies they're going to do)

Might as well start trying out the other characters.

I just got Borderlands 2 too. But I joined a game that was ahead of my story and apparently it skipped me to that mission when I got back on single player, so I just quit...

[SKYWARPED_128]

Hitman Absolution

Finished the game, now trying to complete the challenges and try new signature kills. The preset checkpoints can get super-annoying if you're trying to complete Infiltrator challenges. Make a wrong move and get spotted, and it's back the last checkpoint. Massively infuriating.

Still trying to figure out exactly what certain challenges actually want you to do (i.e. "Lieutenant Bad" in Chinatown--kill by proxy?!)

It's not supposed to do that. No reason you can't just start a new character. Hell, I started three new characters just because I ran out of stuff to do on the first one.

Well, I continued my Siren playthrough afterwards, who was only at level 3. The first playthrough was with Zero, who I had at level 18 before the game skipped me. But I quickly leveled up my Siren to level 18 because I joined a level 50 game and just let everyone kill all the enemies for me while I leveled up. A cheap ass tactic, but effective.

Wouldn't the level 50 game also be ahead of you in the story? I didn't hit 50 until I was fighting BNK3R on TVHM.

Borderlands 2:
Focusing on Maya for...well, I guess you could call it playthrough 3? Putting more focus on her Cataclysm skill tree, since it's all of Lilith's best skills focused into only a couple of skills. Phaselock can be upgraded to cause four elemental effects (Shock, Corrosion, Fire, and Slag) and all kinds of other crazy cool stuff.

[BeastProwl]

Everyone has Borderlands 2, I'm still rock'n 1 like a boss.

Borderlands: Playthrough 2

Finally beat it.

Lots of bitch'n, downright sexy-ass guns. One of my personal favorites, The Scoped Guardian. Hold your ground...Forever.

And that one shotgun, Holy crap it shoots rockets!

and the vicious invader, BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM!

Anyhow, after I defeated The Destroyer, all the enemies on Pandora leveled up with me, holy crap! I cant drive for five seconds without being totally obliterated, kinda sucks.

Well, whenever I get the rest of that DLC...

Yeah, but when it skipped me ahead in my first playthrough, a message popped up after I finished the mission I was on and I just pressed X without reading it. It said something about skipping ahead, but I didn't care enough to finish reading it... So I would assume clicking on the "No" button will keep me where I am in the story.

Huh? I can't hear you over all my guns that make Bessie (The strongest sniper rifle in the game) look like a cheap pellet gun. Oh, hello 7000 damage rating assault rifle, how are you? Why, yes, I have met the 130k damage Rocket Launcher, I was just having lunch with him and the 4000 damage incendiary SMG.

No offense to Bessie, you know I still love you, babe.

Anyhow, after I defeated The Destroyer, all the enemies on Pandora leveled up with me, holy crap! I cant drive for five seconds without being totally obliterated, kinda sucks.

Yeah, that's playthrough 2.5; all the enemies become MUCH tougher. Borderlands 2 has it as well, part of the reason I'm not touching any of the leftover sidequests until the level cap increase comes out.

Well, whenever I get the rest of that DLC...

Do it! Borderlands has some of the best DLC ever. It's like Fallout's DLC, but satisfying.

It's complicated.

"Gasps" So my friend gave me his PSN so I was able to download all the DLC and Borderlands for free, but didn't have enough time to download them all, just the...underdome... since then I spent all that time in illinois, and now Im in georgia, and I dont have any wifi, so I can't finish the download. Not like I could though, since then Sony has put a stricter limit to how many people can share accounts, so he booted me off temporarely untill I get wireless, and is sharing with another frient ATM.so in short if I sign on to PSN, I loose Borderlands and several other games and add ons I got from his account.

Thats why I was wondering, can I buy the Game of the year edition of borderlands, and download the DLC from the disk itself? Then use it on my downloaded copy so I dont have to start over again due to the data being different between the two? It was for LBP Game of the year edition, so I assume borderlands is the same? If I restart AGAIN it will be for the fourth time! I cant find an answer to that exact question anywere on the internet...

Nope, since the GOTY edition doesn't use downloading (What with being disc-based and all) and even so, apparently regular BL saves are incompatible with GOTY, which I realize makes no sense at all, but that's how it goes.

EDIT: Here's what you do. Since you don't have wifi, but you do have internet, get yourself a long enough ethernet cable to reach from your modem or router to your PS3, or, if you can, pull the ethernet cable from your PC and hook that into your PS3, if your TV is close enough to your computer, anyway. In my experience, wired internet is vastly superior to wireless anyway.

It is. If I can find my 50 foot chord, I would be able to play DCUO.

Starcraft
I'm not really a PC gamer, but after watching the tournament of Starcraft 2 on IGN, I want to play it also. So now I'm playing 1 right now for the story so I can start 2. And I haven't played an RTS game like 11 years so I suck. Badly. It took me 2 hours to beat 1 mission. But I got done with mission 6 of the Terran campaign the day before yesterday and am about to dive into that again. But this time, I'm looking for tips and stuff so I don't take forever playing 1 damn mission.

Dishonored
I'm on a third playthrough (yes, it's that fun). This time I'm going through it withought anybody getting alarmed of my presence so I can get the ghost trophy. After I get these stealth trophies, I'm playing one more time and I'm slaughtering EVERYBODY.

Thanks For The Tip, but killing them was easy, probably because i was lvl 22 that time. Recently i got a good shock SMG, so if if i ever meet a Guardian again i will make sure i remember what you said.

Black Mesa

second Playthrough, trying to beat through the game in medium, those Aimbot HECU don't give me a chance to make good tactics, so the best tactic is crouch in place with a shotgun, and when he comes to you...shoot'em! just Reached Power Up, i never liked how Garngunta's became invincible and only scripted events could kill them.

Hitman Absolution


Finally found the Charlie Chipmunk costume and completed the Lieutenant Bad challenge.

RE 6

Going crazy with the grenade launcher and submachine pistols, trying to score enough kills for infinite ammo and "Master" buffs.

[Shadowman]

Because sometimes, people deserve to have their faith rewarded.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim:
Picked up and completed a quest to return a cursed sword to its alter to banish some crazy ghost lady. It's been a year, and I'm still finding new stuff to do in this game. Goddamn I love Skyrim.

King of Chinatown: completed Veiled Death parts 1 and 2, and finally got the SWAT officer disguise. Achieved MASTERY of the stage.

Birdie's Gift: completed Assassin's Signature and It Wouldn't Be Stealing challenges. Currently trying to find where that damn shotgun is to complete Lost and Found.

Terminus: completed part one of Don't Disturb.

Got Rid of the wee wee king

If you havn't already, nab his shield! Quick health regen helps alot in that part of the game!

Borderlands
Got the DLC off the disk, it was downloadable, then returned it for Just Cause 2.
F*CK YES.

First to go was The island of Ned (Who totally ISNT Zed from before, its Ned.) Holy crap. Playthrough 2'd that one. Undead Ned was a pill, but in the end, it all worked out Now if only I can beat Frankenbill and Pumpkinhead...

Now for the secret armory...

Oh yes.. This is my new favorite thing in life. So many hours just diving around, blowing **** up, and General Knoxx is my new favorite character, like, ever.

I'm going toe to toe with Crawmerax ATM. LVL 61 I am, and my god is he giving me a run for my money. Like seriously, its getting expensive to die, jesus.

Also Skag riding Midgets!

Claptrap's new robolution, or whatever.
My least favorite so far, behind Underdome of course. Its leveled, like Ned's, but the enemies are overwhelming Still, lots to, and I cant wait to get knee deep in it all. Only problem is, I blew up the armory, and didn't get a damn thing for it. All those chests... I hope Marcus pulls through with that "Shopping Spree"

Also, Knoxx was an amazingly well thought out boss fight, thats worth noting. Expert programming and placement. I enjoyed it, very much.

Also.

F*CKING DRIFTERS!!!

thats all.

Want to know the really funny bit? It's confirmed Ned was actually telling the truth, Zed really is a different person.

General Knoxx is my new favorite character, like, ever.

He's got twitter. So does Gaige the Mechromancer though it was hijacked by Mr. Torgue, President of Torgue.

Crawmerax solo is a no-no unless you're playing Lilith. There's a peculiar bug she can exploit, by hiding in a certain spot it makes Crawmerax basically stand in place and lets you take off all his front-side weak points, though you have to leave said spot to take his back off.

Also.

F*CKING DRIFTERS!!!

i was much higher level and his shield wasn't good enough for me, my slow health regen shield is better then his, well, after all the only thing we could blame is this generation system (it works on Shields...right?)

Elder Scrolls V Skyrim

Attacked by Vampires in Riverwood and contracted the vampire disease from one of them, i started to panic, i just worshiped talos and the disease was gone. I Killed the Ice Wraith and joined the Stormcloaks and got the jagged crown, and fight silver hand from Farkas, now i really feel i want to be a Werewolf, but with Dawngaurd....
