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 :D 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 :BOOM: 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.

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.

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....

Resident Evil: Code Veronica:
So I got this to lower the number of games in the main RE series that I haven't played. Not regretting it. But enough about that, let's talk about Steve.

Steve is just awful. I mean, seriously. It's like he's supposed to be a parody of...characters, I guess. His voice acting is terrible (Sam Riegel voices him in Darkside Chronicles, which I haven't heard but knowing the actor it's probably really good, so at least Steve has that going for him) and I swear to God I just want to punch him in the face until he stops.

That is enough about Steve.

Not too far into the game, just sent the e-mail to Leon to send an e-mail to Chris to come rescue everyone. Not sure why Claire couldn't call in both Leon and Chris. Those two teaming up together? They'd have the place cleaned out in five minutes.

Claptraps new Robot Revolution (or something)

Killed Knoxx...again...
Killed Ned...again...
Killed Comendant Steele...for the first time.

Currently looking into killing Knoxx a 3rd time, but those damn devine wind claptraps are making it impossible, id'e rather have badass devestators on my ass, at least they don commit cheap suicides preventing you from fighting back...

Umm..well see thats the thing. It says its lower than yours in quality, but thats one of a few lies in borderlands. See, it's actually REALLY good, it just doesnt tell you. Test it out next time you get the chance.

Oh, I did. And while the acting was bad, I never wanted to punch any of the characters in the balls, and in fact loved the stupid writing and acting, especially Barry. But here's the thing, in between talking, no one in STARS was a total retard. Steve? He hesitated shooting his Zombie Dad, which is understandable, while Zombie Dad was about to eat Claire, but waiting until the very last second before spraying automatic fire at both of them. Even when he's not talking, he's still awful.

Fortunately, Claire is awesome enough to balance things out. Like, taking Steve up on an offer to get a pair of gold lugers (The key to a door Claire needed to get through) by trading him a pair of SMGs...which were empty. And when getting the ammo for him, she still took the time to physically hurt him. (Getting up to a ledge by standing on his back) And also there's an achievement for letting Claire make fun of him. Claire would be a total bitch if Steve wasn't so awful. Also Chris and Wesker are in this, so it all works out.

They meet up but they don't really team up. In fact, there's a moment when they're about to kill each other.

Resident Evil: Code Veronica:
Met Alfred Ashford and his annoying laugh, watched Steve kill his Zombie Dad in literally the most dangerous and stupid way possible, now I got to...I dunno, get a bunch of emblems to open a random door and use like a million cranks. Umbrella is dumb, Steve is awful, the Redfield Family is awesome, Wesker is also awesome..

Just crossed the 70 hour mark. Endgame started about 12 hours ago. :-?
Twists just keep coming but they are fun ones.
At the moment, I'm trying to beat a boss in the heart of the bionis (literally) but its 5 levels above me and beating me senseless. I've had to resort to the forbidden method for level enhancement. grinding. :oops:

Resident Evil: Code Veronica:
You know what sucks? Having full health but only a couple weak healing items, and very little ammo.

You know what sucks more? Taking the above sentence and adding "Right before you have to fight a Tyrant" to the end. It took like twenty tries, but damn it, I launched that bastard out of that plane like I was getting a cash prize. One of the few times in gaming when my victory included me flipping both birds at the screen while yelling "YEAH, **** YOU!"

PS, Steve is still awful. And Alfred is also awful, but he gets points back for being so out of his freaking mind that it becomes kind of funny. But Wesker is here, so it's all good.

Whew... 4 levels makes a difference. A boss that was once nigh-impossible is now only a frustrating pain in the backside. Finally took it out and then took the fast track from the heart of the Bionis to the head. Found my next target, but before I can fight him I need to survive a battle arena in a falling elevator.

Broderlands: Island of Ned

Killed Pumpkinhead and FrankenBill. I thought there wasn't much else to do, no new missions, etc.
Until I remembered that there's an achievement you can get for completing a mission called "BRAAAAAANS!"
So I looked all over the freaking island, and eventually, DUN DUUUN DUUUUUN! T.K's Prosthetic Leg! OMG! So, uh, yeah, T.K Baja. :lol: Well, I wish I would have known that BEFORE I started the DLC, so I could have done it early on. Now I need to get all those brains.

The Armory:

So I Raided the armory two more times by using the "Armory Glitch" (Sue me) but the second time I accedentally got to close to the elevator room. Oops. Well, it aint the end of the world, but still...

Also, LEVEL CAP! There are lvl 70 enemies though, I call hax.

This is the first game Iv'e ever reached any lvl cap. I feel like celebrating. Tonight I shall have eggs.

Sidenote: When I whent to Sanders Gorge claptrap said something like "Many a man have turned and ran in fear, and even more have made that TERRIBLE joke!"
What joke? What did I miss? If there's a terrible joke to be made, I wanna make it!

God I hated those missions. Headshots or nothing. It's easily the most annoying mission in either game.

Crawmerax would be level 72 at this point.

You'll see later on, there's a couple missions about it. Like, a mission for collecting seven herbs and spices for Marcus or taking down a chicken-themed Clucktrap and it's a freaking KFC reference.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim:
Preparing for the now-confirmed release of Dragonborn for PS3. (And the now-planned release of Dawnguard and Hearthfire) Largely just doing missions that I haven't done yet, or ones that I had lying around but never finished...after nearly a year of playing.

Xenoblade Chronicles
GAME.OVER!
Beat the game at something like 77 hours in. Total pain but totally worth it. The final section did not allow saving so I had to power through it. The final boss was a 3 part fight and part 1 was really hard. Had to work my combos perfectly or the guy took me down in only 3 movies. Part 2 was easier as it was a one-on-one and part 3 was easy as it was a story point that my main character IS NOW A GOD! :-$
Very satisfying ending to a very worthwhile game. Anyone with a wii or wii u should definitely check this one out.

Claptrap's New Robot Revolution

So I killed Knoxx-Trap the second time, beat Undead-Ned-Trap (HOLY CRAP!) and Camandant Steel-trap again. On the way to the last boss, you see the volcano that the vault is on, kewl.

Wait, so I'm close to the main borderlands area now, right? It would bre even better if I could go into town again and-

Well damn.

"If it took more than one shot, you werent using a jakobs" :-(

One helluva boss fight and a session with the WIRED device later, and I'm off to many KFC related shinanigans and so on...

Now that I finally finished Xenoblade, time to move back to the other games I've been putting off.

New Super Mario Bros (DS)
Up to world 6-3, but have already unlocked world 7.

Rayman: Origins
Cleared the first world and my first Mos-Keeto mission. Saved the second nymph lady (I forget the proper term) and got the helicopter move.

Dragon Age II
Still trying to build up for the Deep Roads Expedition. Tracked down and saved the runaway mage child. He decided he wanted to take his chances with the Dalish. Let's see how this turns out.

:BOOM:

*Locust's splattered remains coincidentally form the following message*

New Super Mario Bros DS
Done. Beat the game, found most levels and missed star coins in only 3 levels. I'm content with this. Moving on.

Rayman Origins
5 worlds in. Passed the Mystical Pique and just unlocked the next one. Only missing 2 electoons, but that's not counting the time trial ones yet. Overall, loving this game.

Dragon Age II
Returned from the Deep Roads expeditions. Lost one of my party members to the blight, but made enough money to move to Hightown. Mostly hitting the side missions now.

Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's edge
1st time playing a Ninja Gaiden game. Getting my backside kicked repeatedly but enjoying it so far. Passed the 1st boss, lost my sword, found another one, and got a bow&Arrow.

Time for the Christmas Haul Mega Super Progress Happy Time 2012!

Resident Evil 6:
BEATEN! Teamed up with a friend of mine, and we co-op'd the hell out of it for a few days. Not as good as, say, 4, (Though if we all try to compare to 4 no one wins) but it had it's moments. Like Chris and Leon not only meeting face-to-face for the first time, but also having a totally awesome fight. Also Sherry's back and boy oh boy puberty has done her some favors. And also Ada gets a nude scene. And also Jake is awesome.

Mortal Kombat:
BEATEN! Story mode, at least. Still have to finish climbing Challenge Tower. At least I learned how to perform Babalities.

Infamous 2:
Actually not beaten yet! Tracked Bertrand down to Flood Town, and turned the power on there. I sided with Kuo, because Nix is a psycho bitch.

XCOM: Enemy Unknown:
My current objectives are to develop the Skeleton Key and assault the alien base, but I'm avoiding that in favor of doing side missions and making my team stronger.

Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's edge
Still on day 2. I get stuck on specific battles. Wow, difficulty levels spike. Last round was on a balcony, taking down an endless supply of enemies while trying to bring down a helicopter that was shooting at me.

Dragon Age II
Running every possible side-quest in act II before speaking to the Qunari. Tracked a lost patrol, hunting a serial killer, and helping some rogue mages.

Rayman Origins
Cleared the 1st round of levels. Was just told by the nymphs that I now need to free the kings of each land. This opened up a second set of levels in the first worlds. Off I go.

Wait 'till the end of the game.

What I got for Christmas... Uncharted 3, Mass Effect 3, Prototype 2 and Hitman Absolution.

Uncharted 3
I beat it. I replayed 1 and 2 for the story and headed to 3 right after. 3 was f***ing gorgeous compared to the first 2.

Prototype 2
I beat this also. I replayed 1 for the story because to be honest, I haven't even finished it 'till I got 2 so I restarted it. Then when I played 2, my opinions is kind of mixed on it. It's better than 1, but also worse. It's complicated.

Hitman Absolution
I played through this game like 3 times. It reminded me why I loved this series in the first played. There are so many way to get rid of a target, it's amazing.

Mass Effect 3
I refuse to play this. I love the Mass Effect series so much but I haven't played 1 since '08 and it's finally out for PS3. I want to play it again. I have 4 of the novels and ME2. But I want 1. And also I'm not playing 3 because I want to start it with all of the story DLC added before I play it. It's just how I am, shut up.

Borderlands: The Underdome

You know that feeling you get when your working hard at something, and someone comes along and finishes it for you, and THEN SOME?
Some hunter came in with an INSANELY overpowered sniper, turned even the bosses such as sledge and bonehead into skag-treats in one shot.

the siren I was also co-oping with didnt make things any easier with her pistol that melted everyone in one shot. (Actually she did but that there is the problem, I struggle through hordes of enemies, the mull through them like nothing) We were all lvl 69, Iv'e raided the Armory 4 times, and ive never seen guns so overpowered

The Sniper Rifle wasnt bessie either.
