No more heroes
I like how its a satire on "EPIC" plots in general not just games.
But I still consider Killer7 as a better game despite the change from its original script . Cant wait for
Flower, Sun and Rain in October so I can get some sort of understanding of his Kill the Past series.
>>62 yeah mgs4 was def overhyped, same with GTA4 etc etc
Finished MGS4.
It beat MGS2 as my favorite Kojima game and it's definitely up there on my all-time favorites list.
I think I'm going to go replay the entire series now.
>>56
Keep trying, it took me 8 GARGLING HOURS to beat that 1 min mission.
And I was playing the pc version.
I just beat Condemned 2: Bloodshot two weeks ago.
Horror FPS is my favorite genre so Con kept me on the edge of my seat until the somewhat dissapointing conclusion. I really hope that the focus remains on the creepy/dark horror sequences, because the end of the game focused on gunplay and it was not up to snuff with the opening levels.
I finished Baldur's Gate 2: Shadows of Ahm and Throne of Bhaal for the first time. (Yeah, old games, I know...) I manged to convert Sarevok to Chaotic Good, but somehow I failed to convert Viconia to True Neutral. spoilers ahead... I'm sort of dissatisfied with Viconia's romance epilogue. I mean, she just died from some poison. You'd figure that her death would at very least be something more dramatic than dying from some dumb poison administered by a servant of Lolth. end spoilers
By the way, I played a Kensai/Mage Neutral Good Human male.
I beat Halo: Combat Evolved. Halo is lucky that it's gameplay is fun and fast because the story is as dumb as rocks.
Elite Beat Agents on normal. The last few levels of normal mode of EBA felt like the hard mode levels of Ouendan 1 & 2, because in most of them you're pretty much fucked for the whole song if you get under 50% even once. Funny, you'd expect it to be other way around.
These games really need a training mode. When you're just trying to pass a song and don't care to score, it's boring to redo 2 minutes you know perfectly just to get a chance to figure out a complex pattern that can make you insta-fail the song if you don't grasp it fast enough, which means you have to hit youtube to get a chance to analyze the trickiest ones.
>>65
I'm playing on PC too. Still not finished but I haven't had the time to try it again that much.
>>24 I finished Assassin's Creed yesterday and seriously.. I felt like crying or throwing my keyboard ot of the window or something.
What the fuck??? Not sure if I'm going to buy the sequel, this ending pssied me off so much.
Mass Effect.
Quite nice game, should have played it on the hardest difficulty, Biotics, Tech abilities and pretty much teammates were kinda useless, I just shot everyone with a pistol.. It has a decent replayability, so maybe I will.
Finished Fallout 1 & 2, i don't get what the big deal is..sure both are great games but to call it the best rpgs ever with a great character development is going tooooo far.
Finished Final Fantasy12. God it was the most boring game i ever played...
cants wait for diablo 3
Ever 17, You good, and Tsugumi bad ending (still crying). Can't wait for "Coco story".
Thanks to the holidays I've recently finished a lot of games. At the moment though I think I'm most proud of finally crushing God of War II on Titan Mode. Theres nothing quite like an active cutscene gorefest to celebrate the defeat of a boss that has been fustrating you for well over a year.
I beat Super Mario Galaxy yesterday. Man what a fun ride that was to beat. =)
I'm still playing through, but I doubt I'll ever get all 121 Stars (or even 120 honestly). It's just a matter of time before I give up and start playing Zelda.
Been playing Unreal 2 and World in Conflict side by side.
Unreal 2 was great fun as ever. The way the story is written makes you come to quite like the characters, so when your ship gets blown up and all your friends die, it makes me baw. Even more so when you're drifting through space in an escape pod listening to their final message.
World in Conflict - great storyline, and the gameplay is hella fun. ZOMG ZOMG ZOMG TANK SPAM HOLY SHIT LOOK AT THOSE EXPLOSIONS THAT WAS COOL WOW YOU ARE THE GREATEST GAME EVER.
Then you play it online and the amazingness is doubled by the fact that the ground can be cratered and every weapon is available. Nothing more beautiful than seeing your own men blasted to shreds by a fuel-air bomb.
>>80
thank you very much, you have successfully influenced me...XD. Gonna nuke 'em!!!
Finished Legend of Dragoon today after a 5 years of not touching my Playstation one.
I finally beat Dragon Warrior IV on my psp emulator after playing it on and off for like a year now.
I must say that I am quite proud of myself ^_^
I finaly caught entai on pokemon coleseum after 3 years
Eba sweatin.
just finished max payne after never playing it
I did the Endless Setlist on Hard.
kthxbye
Beat Metal Slug 7 today for the first time on normal.
Ape Escape 3. Awesome game! The loli is a great character
GO GO GOTCHAMAN FAIRY!!1
Well, I recently picked up SotN for the PSP and managed to beat that with the best ending. Also beat GTA:LCS but only with a 40 some percent completion rate. Can't be assed to hunt down unique jumps and hidden packages or do the racing missions etc.
Persona 3
that game took a long time- I still haven't managed to get through the other 4-7 games- I should go back to playing back-ups.
phew! after like 60 hours of play (a few hours i had to leave it running for while i was busy) I finally managed to beat Disgaea 2 after staying up for hour last night...
I was kinda cheap with the last boss - i got the most useless character i had out to lift him up after everyone else had attacked. this robbed him of his turn, but only resulted in my losing ONE man instead of like 3 every time.
then again, being cheap is kinda the way to play in Disgaea games. Man some of those stages were imaginative and there were lots of ways to go about beating a map. I started to love my mages, let me tell you.
I fucked a goat.
nervous applause
>>94
Good job, now you can start a black metal band.
>>94
or, if you hung the goat afterwards, you could start a norse metal band.
I managed to finish Half-life 2, hl2 ep 1, and hl2 ep 2, and portal, and went through all again with commentary.
Man, those games rock.
<troll>
I found a secret in Half-Life 2, though. When you pick things up with the gravity gun, you can launch things at the enemies andthey'll take damage! I don't know if Valve saw this bug yet or not, but it's kinda game breaking since you don't need guns anymore...
</troll>
>>98
episodes == fail
hl2 was somewhat atmospheric, thow
blah blah blah - you complain about cheap half-life 2 episodes when Star Craft2 is going to be 3 "full campaign" games.
>>99
I prefer a slow trickle of episodes than waiting 4+ years for half life 3.
Izuna: legend of the unemployed ninja.
it was okay, but not enough depth or complexity. I wouldn't buy the next one, because I think they're just adding more work instead of fun, to be honest.
I get annoyed when these sorts of games seem to replace complexity with cheap tricks to make the game harder.
I guess I really just want a good ol' graphical roguelike for a change. God, if someone had a I.V.A.N. or T.O.M.E. or netHack or even Dungeon Crawl on the Ds, I'd be a happy man.
Finished Little Big Planet's single player mode. I can't lie, I had fun with it but it was pretty short. I really don't have much interest in making my own stages to be honest so I'll have to rely on playing with any friends who have this to get any more replay value out of this.
I recently finished Aquaria.
Maxis' Spore.. Cool game... nah this game is endless.. i reached the center of the galaxy and talked to steve, though, i think this marks the zenith of the game.. or maybe there's more to do here like exterminating the Grox???
Last games i finished with definite endings are bishoujo games, yume miru kusuri as the most recent.. these games dont feel like games to me, more like powerpoint presentations tahtn games, but since its called "bishoujo games", then these are "games" nevertheless..?
the last decent game i last played with definite ending is prince of persia 2 thrones..
I burned the rope
we're happy you made it.
Ace Attorney 4, after getting tired of waiting for a price drop. The 3D evidence was cool, but I was surprised they dropped the option of Presenting profiles as evidence. The writing is still strong, and the new characters are likeable. That last case though, it was good, but the computer gimmick came out of left field. It took some of the impact out of the ending.
110, i was also surprised they dropped the option of presenting profiles as evidence D:
Oh, and to be on topic:
I beat the Composer and saved Shibuya!!
Finished ice aka in mhp2ndG on my psp... well it took some time though, well i can wait now on 3rd mh...
Finally, after like 7 tries - I beat Star Ocean 2! to celebreate, I bumbed Final Fantasy XII to the top of my to-play list.
I feel like it wasn't a totally legitimate win though, because i gave Claude the Battle suit and Eternal Sphere, and a meteor ring and bunny shoes. I basically just got tired of energy nede.
really though - that game is freakin hard if you don't try to be a little cheap with it...
I just beat Ninja Gaiden Black on Master Ninja.
that does merit some serious feelings of accomplishment.
That game does get hard arbitrarily at the end. An underrated game overall.
Beat Dead Space on Normal. Really easy. Tried it on hard... much harder, I'm taking a break to try and actually finish Dragon Quest 8.
Well I recently beat Infinite Undiscovery and now I'm trying to do the Seraphic Gate (extra dungeon.)
It really is an underrated game, the real time battles are fun.
Just beat Pong for the first time. That final boss battle with the tentacle raep machine was really troubling at first, but after a while its pattern became fairly obvious.
Overall, on a scale of one to ten, I'd give the game a nine. Sure, the graphics may be a little out of date, but the story remains timeless.
I just beat Fallout 3, I think I had the best karma ending. Great game!
Fallout 3, Best karma ^^
Dead Space, on Impossible. Military Suit, ftw.
Tomb Raider Underworld. What a pain in the ass.
Crysis Warhead. 100x times better than Crysis, 3x times shorter.
Just beat Super Paper Mario - when I started the game, I enjoyed the 3 Dimensions. About half-way/three-quarters I didn't really notice it, and thought the game was alright, but not the best - but then I thought about it some more. The game took me probably 30 hours to complete. For a platformer, that's phenomenal. I was never bored during this time, and there were always plenty of new mechanics and surprises. And I found that I was always going to 3D, just to see what I could find. It was rewarding. The Mimi stage was great, as well as the nerd stage. And during the Sammer Tourney, I always took the time to Tippi every char - even when the world was ending... Anyway, would totally play again.
I love how the Paper Mario 2, and Super Paper mario let you play the game after you're done, letting you see what's changed now that you've saved the world.
I finished Super Mario Advance 2 the other day... Super Mario World is the best
Just finished Phantasy Star Portable within 2 days of owning it...
I'm not sure if I wanna play til level 100 or not but I can't imagine it taking long to get there considering it was only 20 hours to get to 60.
Just beat Super Mario Galaxy after putting it down for some time. I haven't gotten all the stars, but I was rather impressed with going through the last stage and Bowser with no deaths.
Although form the story books and how it looked like peach's castle in the background, I would have thought Rosalina would have something to do with Peach.
Fire emblem DS.
My army got its ass kicked and I only won because of a lucky counterattack.
I just finished Valkyria Chronicles (PS3).
While the story is generic, the gameplay is really damn fun. Very good game!
Just finished Summon NightL Swordcraft Story for the GBA. it was good, but over really fast - lots of replay value though if you had the time. I started playing the sequel, and instantly missed how quickly you could get great weapons in the original, and how easy knuckles and spears made the game...
Ys1 and getting close(r) to beating YS2.
Batman Return of the Joker (NES). Pretty fun, pretty tough, but still enjoyable.
Just beat Super Mario RPG for the first time. I've played it before on the old SNES, but then the data got erased. I was near the end of the game too... So I never got around to finishing it cause I didn't feel like playing through the entire game. Now years later, and with the help of emulation I was able to finish what I started years ago.
Gotta say, the ending was pretty damned lame, but whatever.
I finished a game called "Lord Monarch" for the PC. there's only 15 levels, but they get really complicated at the end.
I'm pretty sure only like me and 30 other people have seen the ending screen of this game, so I took a screenshot to remember my triumph for ever.
Megaman 1-4 on NES.
1 was fucking tough. Fuck Fireman.
2 was a letdown. It's not as good as most people say.
3 was great. Despite the weapons not being as good as 2, it was a perfect balance in toughness and enjoyment.
4 was also great. People don't give it enough credit.
Also, Final Fantasy II (US SNES version). That sucked. Zeromus was the only high point of the game and even he wasn't hard.
>>133 here
Just beat Megaman 5 and 6.
5 was... eh. It's the true same old, same old Megaman if there ever was one. Nothing stood out for me. Although the introduction of secret breakaway passages was kind of cool. I honestly like 2 better.
6 is my personal favorite. Although when I was younger, I never beat it due to one reason or another. Likely because I had gotten an SNES soon after and due to the way our TV worked and was positioned, I could only have one system set at a time for a certain period of time, which severly limited the games I played. As a result, I never beat it. When I got the MMAC on PS2, I was stuck on plant man's stage because the spring section kept killing me. Died for a few times this time, but I managed to get past it for once. The rest of the game was too easy after that. I beat the game with 9 lives and 9 e-tanks. What the hell? I've always wanted certain megaman games to be a tad easier, but 6 was ridiculously easy. I didn't even USE an E-tank. It's my favorite, but man, after finally beating it, it's what I would definitely call a beginner's Megaman game.
Shatterhand. Holy shit, that game was ambiguous without the instruction manual.
Just finished Star Ocean: First Departure. Oh my god that game was fun. Definitely worth picking up in my opinion. I just love the battle system. Now to the store to get Star Ocean: Second Evolution, even though I own the original PSX version.
Now go play Final Fantasy IV. Its a whole nother ball game. Don't play the GBA version. It was like a mashup of the two.
>>136
I've played the PS1 version, which I lost a few years back. From what I recall, it's more or less the same just harder, with more/less stuff depending on the circumstance.
Sonic the Hedgehog (Master System ver.). Considering the medium, it's an impressive piece of work. The controls could use a bit of fine tuning, but the music and and graphics were really fucking good (Sky Base Zone is a cool song and the Jungle area looks wonderful). I'm surprised they pulled off so much in such a little package. A shame it was so short and most of the robotnik bosses were easy as pie.
Ghosts n' Ghouls for Master system. Pretty cool and a bit different from most games in the series.
Just finished Devil May Cry 1. I'm playing the series in out of order, started with 4, than 3 and now 1. I know three is a prequel to the first one, so its alright.
I had fun playing it, but it felt way too short.
I don't remember why, but I stopped playing DMC 1, even though it was fun... I think at the time, I didn't quite "get it"
Just made it through Saints Row 2 100%
Also, Crysis on Delta. Damn tough aliens, but I made it! :3
Now working on making it through Serious Sam 1st Encounter on Mental difficulty. I guess it'll take a looong time.
Neutopia 1. That third to last boss was a pain in the ass and I barely beat the last one with pretty much "1 HP" left (Although, I'm not sure what I should call the fraction since it's not really "half" even though it is pictured that way).
On to Neutopia 2!
Donkey Kong GB/94.
Not that hard once you get backflipping and triple jumping down.
Just beat MadWorld today. Picked it up again to decide whether or not I would get rid of it (the controls were really giving me shit during the Mad Castle stage), and ended up playing it all the way to the final fight.
I have to say that I wasn't nearly as disappointed in the ending as I expected to be from reading other people's opinions. Still a bit confused by the story, though.
Twinbee 3 for the FC/NES. Eh, pretty tame and archaic compared to the later games.
I Just beat Final Fantasy Legend. I could have beaten it WAY long ago, but I thought the final "tower" was going to involve much more wandering around than it did. I got to the creator, and started my pwnage, (although my Monster apparently couldn't even TOUCH him for some lame reason.)
I got tired of trying, and Saw'd him to pieces. Good ending, but I already knew about it so it was kinda anti-climactic. What I wanna know is if anyone has ever Walked through walls in the cerator's room and seen if you could get into that door???
>>147
I'm going to bet it's just one of those prop doors that doesn't even do anything. Sort of like those chests you can't ever get to behind the shopkeeper's counter in nearly every RPG ever.
Even today though, I always think: "Those bastards probably put a second [best weapon that there's only one in the game of] in one of those chests."
Also, I just beat Metroid 2. A nice blend of 1 and Super, but damn did the music SUCK and so did the sound effects. I had to turn the volume off. Another thing that sucked was my end time. 3:10. 11 minutes away from bikini Samus. Although, it's my own fault for screwing around and missing jumps so much. Oh well.
I just beat Gear of War 2 in coop with a bro. In my humble opinion, the game was a great improvement over the first one, much better paced and it is appreciated that they at least attempted to give it a plot.
... and damn, poor Carmine.
Ignoring the spam fag.Kid Icarus: Of Myths and Monsters.
It was really good. Much better than the original and even better than Metroid II. It's only problem was that it was too short and easy.
Just finished Persona 3 FES (The Journey, not the Answer yet). To tell the truth, I was pretty disappointed. I think I was expecting something more like Nocturne.
Fallout 3. Just the normal ending, though. I still have The Pitt, Broken Steel, and a ton of side quests to do...
I won the game.
and now I just lost it.
>>156
I was kind of dissapointed too. The fight with the Avatar of Nix was so... easy. I was expecting it to start crushing me really hard at some point, but it just died. And that was the end of it. Maybe i was overprepared, or perhaps min/maxing in rpgs is too easy for me, i don't know.
The music was cool though.
Bahamut Lagoon on the SNES. Its so easy to break the game near the end. First off, one of your dragon's get infinite HP if you raise it right, and then when you can afford it, buy as many Magic Gins you can buy. Theres no penalty for using items, cause its not turn based, so if you run out of mana, just refill it and blast away in th same turn.
Also the princess is a whore.
Beat No More Heroes on Bitter (New Game +) today.
Funny thing about this game is that even on the hardest difficulty, the final boss isn't that tough -- it just takes FOREVER to beat him.
