Iron Curtain-C + Shield (GUNDAM!)

Heh heh, hell yes.

Exteel [PC]:
Levelled, again. Increased my Marksmanship. I'm going to start buying pieces now so that I can build a better mech, and then still have my Pinky when I level enough to build a second mech.

What I usually do (or at least have been doing since CB1) is I keep my Pinkett fast and close-range (swords, smgs) and I paint him purple and call him 'Shockwave' (head with 1 yellow eye FTW), and I build another heavier mech, give him more heavy-duty weapons, the head with the antennae and mouthplate, paint him red and blue and call him 'Prime.' It's worked so far!

And damn, these Open Beta noobs are pissing me off.

Drift City [PC]:
Just did the Mission from City 3, Station 3 that has me drive to City 1 HQ to pick up the Lamborghini, then drive around City 1's Stations basically showing everyone how awesome I am. The Mission gave me enough Experience to reach Level 41, so I bought the RX-8 I've had my eye on since it was implemented into the game. Unfortunately, both of the purple paints suck and are the wrong shade, so I won't be able to make him look like Alt Shockwave, and the white paint and blue stripes cost RL $$$, so no Alt Jazz either. Oh well.

Oh, and I raced the GMs as part of the in-game event, so I hope I can win some sweet stuff in the contest.

Psychonauts:
Finished Basic Braining. My next objective is to get training from Sasha Nein. For some reason, when I was near his lab, all the sound cut out. That means "Break Time" in Gamerspeak.

Exteel:
Hit Level 10, now a Sergeant, and with a secondary mech.

I wasn't as happy with the Iron Curtain as I though I'd be. I sold it off to get my Blitz back. Unfortunately, I no longer have any weapons to make my secondary worth using. Looks lik I'll be saving up to get it some weapons. Probably going to get three Planet Eagles. Give two to my Mekhi, and give my Pinkett a Sword+SMG combo, and have it's weapon 2 be my Tommy Strikers.

Got to experience the Open Beta n00b Scourge for myself. Some little **** was handing out orders, spamming the CTRL+# Communications, and talking about how two dissimilar weapons were for n00bs, despite him beign a Private with the lowest number of kills.

He was also talking about how he was "Bumblebee from Transformers" (Because he had a yellow mech), when he should have been DEFENDING THE GODDAMN BASE. When we lost, I was so sick of him. Lucky for me, when the top player left the server, I was given Master Control. It felt so good when I kicked his ass to the lobby. We won the next match, despite it being at Falicia Canyon, with the two bases VERY far away.

I eat n00bs for breakfast. Man, these kids piss me off!

The Iron Curtain is strong, but its low rate of fire and crap overheat make it a pain to use. I like it, but once I won't be repairing it. Hell, I feel like getting a second Blitz!

Exteel [PC]:
Reached Level 7, bought the 5000-credit Booster and some Repair Points. Repaired my Blitz (because I loves it so much).

I repair my equipment after every other battle. I always buy extra repair points when I run low, even if I'm saving up for something else. And it also saves on Repair points. If I wait until everything is down to 0/40000, then I only get three uses of repair points, and I have to use Pinkett parts. If I do it every other battle, keep my mechs in tip-top shape, and buy more points when I run low, I never have to worry about having to use the crap equipment.

What I would sometimes do is just use Pinkett parts so that I could save money. By using parts that don't lose durability, I don't have to repair them. But yeah, I know what you mean.

Sam & Max Episode 4: Abe Lincoln Must Die!:
Now introducing the President of the United States...:

MAX! *Bum bum BUMMM!*

Beat Lincoln in an election by tricking him into called Religion and Education bad, offering home delivery for Toxic waste, and demanding everyone's money as a Tax Plan. Then, I tricked Sybil into thinking he was going on a date with her, only to get her to cry on national television when he rejected her like a bad organ transplant.

In other words, I got him to commit Political Suicide.

Now I've got to stop him from Rampaging through downtown D.C.. I could go for a nuke or twenty thousand right now.

Guitar Hero III
Not getting anywhere with the Japanese tour songs so I'm going back and replaying a few of the older ones. I now have nearly all 5-stars up through the video shoot. Only have a few 3-stars left.

[Shadowman]

Can you *BUMP* a sticky?

Psychonauts:
I had enough Arrowheads to buy the Cobweb Duster. Then, in a horrible mistake of control mix-up, I accidentally bought the Mental Magnet. DAMN! If I had it, I could get into the Milk Man Conspiracy, one of the trippiest missions in the game. (Though I think Meat Circus is trippier, in an American McGee's kind of way.)

[1337W422102]

Can you *BUMP* a sticky?

Well, YOU can, since you're just that awesome.

Exteel [PC]:
Levelled, increased my Marksmanship. As a Level 8 Corporal, I'm thinking it's time to upgrade my freakin' mech. I'm tired of all this Pinkett crap. But I do need to buy some more repair points, so I'll guess I'll be stuck with Pinky for a little while longer.

Busy trying to deal with n00bs. 3 players on a base should be enough for Difficulty two, but apparently it's not...

Drift City [PC]:
So I got to Level 43, only to find out that there's, what, 1 level 43 mission? Geez, now I have to level again...

Recruited another member for my Crew (guild, clan), the1337 Crew.

[Shadowman]

Exteel:
Got to Level 12.

Current Setup:
Main Mech:
Mekhi, basic Booster
Twin Planet Eagle-Cs
Blitz Rocket Launcher-C
(The PE-C/Sword combo was versatile, but it didn't have the kill speed I wanted)

Secondary:
Pinkett, Frontliner Head, P-Booster
Twin Katanas (One from my Mekhi)
Twin Tommy Striker-Cs
(Tryin to turn it into a Frontliner)

EDIT: Since I don't want to double post so soon:

Second Sight:
This game owns: It's like realistic Psychonauts, but with a very "MGS" feel to it. In fact, parts of it play like MGS. (Including vent-crawling, and aiming weapons, and hiding in lockers) The way it controls (slowly, but very precise and responsive), is also very MG-esque. (See? I made a pun)

The story is kind of hard to pin down, until you read Wikipedia to see how it ends. When you do that, many other parts will make sense, despite the Wikipedia plot synopsis, for the most part, not making sense.

I'm currently on the mission "Madness." I have to save Jayne Wilde, a Psychic who John Vattic (The main character!) didn't believe was actually a psychic, from a Mental Institution. By using John Vattic's Psychic Powers. Huzzah.

Call of Duty 4
GAME.OVER!
After putting in the launch abort codes after breaking in through a silo after blasting my way through heavily armored fortifications and lots of rooftop enemies with RPGs, managed to stop the launch and disable the in-air missiles.
After that, it was time to run-like-hell to escape. Drive-n-gun missions are always fun. Right up until the bridge blows up from under you. Still, managed to cap Zhakaev just before the local Russian army showed up for the rescue.
Got to play through the bonus mission where we have to storm an airplane to rescue "the VIP" and take him for a sky-dive before the plane explodes.

While I was waiting for Drift City to update on my laptop, I got impatient and started a new Codename Gordon game. By the time I had beaten it, the update still hadn't finished. Damn school's crap connection!

[The Happy Locust]

Ghost Squad
Played through the game once. Only 3 levels but many paths through the levels. So far only unlocked one extra gun and no costumes. Party mode now gets to enjoy NINJA MODE!

[1337W422102]

Drift City [PC]:
Grindin'. Reached Level 45. I know that I can go on, story-wise, but I'm doing Patrol Missions, trying to get some Mittron Enhancers to get some high-level parts (plus the XP and $$$ from sold items are always good, too).

[Jelze Bunnycat]

Ok, I'm back again. Might as well add my progress since only 3 others are posting

Mega Man ZX
Cleared my file with Vent and unlocked Hard Mode All I need to do now is to find the 2 other subtanks (yes, I fought Serpent with 2 full subtanks, I'm suicidal!), fill up the database (I'm missing 2 bosses, 1 mini-boss and less than 10 normal enemies), get Mega Man Zero 3 and fight the hidden bosses from Zero 3 and 4, including Omega. And of course get Model O...

...but I'll save that and Aile for another time. I'm gonna focus on Metroid Prime Hunters now (I'll get you this time, Weavel!).

SolderFront [PC]:
I finally decided to try this game.

I'm literally feeling nauseous now. Jesus, it's bloody awful. It's so bad, in fact, that it actually makes WarRock look good. So good, in fact, that I downloaded the latest WarRock client and am installing it right now. What the hell is wrong with me??

Drift City [PC]:
ijji pisses me off SO bad. Between crap games, unstable programs, and lack of Firefox compatibility, they really know how to tell me to smeg the smeg off.

The game crashed on me TWICE today, in both occasions while I was doing those long 'drive all around the frakkin' city' Patrol Missions.

I finally managed to finish one, got a Mittron Enhancer, and built a Hyper Durability part. I now have a full set (ie all 8 Parts) of Level 49 pieces as well as Hyper parts. I also bought body kit for my RX-8 to improve its Acceleration and Durability. I guess that means that I can continue with the story missions now. Groovy.

[Shadowman]

Exteel:
Got Frontliner Legs for my secondary. At this point, it's about equal parts Pinkett and Frontliner. I was also logged on to find I was rewarded with just enough credits (From doing well in Last Stand), to get it a basic Booster.

I'm also about to hit Level 13.

[Gutter Bunny]

Busted out Mario 64 last night, forgot how much i loved that game. Only had time to get 8 stars though.

Assassins creed: I've only gone through the first 4 assassinations, but have also gone on alot of random killing sprees

Think i may start on the megaman series soon, its been awhile since i've played through those.

Ghost Squad
Up to level 3 difficulty on all the levels now. Unlocked a pistol and a sniper rifle. Also got desert camo suit

GAME.OVER!
Not much of an achievement but I've been trying for a while to make it past the game.

[1337W422102]

Holy crap! Just when I thought your sig couldn't get any more epic...

[The Happy Locust]

Holy crap! Just when I thought your sig couldn't get any more epic...

SigQuoted.

Ghost Squad
Attempted the missions on level 3 difficulty. I've pretty much got mission 1 down at this point. MIssion 2's single-shot headshot ending always gets me though. Still, managed to unlock the policeman's uniform skin and get promoted to sergeant.

[1337W422102]

Holy crap! Just when I thought your sig couldn't get any more epic...

Again? Heh heh, this isn't the first time you quoted one of my comments about how great your sigs are!

WarRock [PC]:
I got dragged back into it, but I swear I won't be giving them any of my money!

I'm 58% through Level 2. Geez, this takes a while.

So much freakin' artifacting in this game. I hope running ATItool will fix this, because it's just unplayable in some places.

[The Happy Locust]

Holy crap! Just when I thought your sig couldn't get any more epic...

Me am attention-whore.

Guitar Hero III
Spent the last few hours trying to make the 5-star mark. After many arduous hours of playing, reached the unreachable mark of 125,000 points. YAY!
*waits for final screen*
WHAT!? STILL 4 STARS! SON OF A...
