-BAF- 11 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 FFXIII-2 is boring. It's the same mindless combat and upgrade systems from FFXIII except now you have to fill your third character slot with monsters who act like a regular character but they require more menu management. Thrills a minute. The two leads have no charisma. The girl's ridiculous. She's the non-threatening mail-order bride type. The time travel plot is putting me to sleep. I'm official done with games for awhile. It's a sequel to one of the most shit games of the generation. Don't let that take you away from gaming. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rusty Shackleford 7 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 played some to the moon nice game, but the main character seems to age rapidly, unless the game takes place in the future Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest C.M. Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I played some DD. Went on a path away from the main mission. There was a giant boulder that almost killed me. Fought some bandits and got demolished by this one that had armor and a shield Quote Link to post Share on other sites
soup 105 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Yeah. When you kill the final boss all your equipped items get instantly Dragonforged (better than +3) and once you get to post game Dragons start spawning on the map as well as other enemies, there's a Hydra in one of the castles too.

-SK4- 5 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 (edited) I played some DD. Went on a path away from the main mission. There was a giant boulder that almost killed me. Fought some bandits and got demolished by this one that had armor and a shield Lmao yeah, bandits are overwhelming in the beginning when I was playing as a strider. I got a mage pawn as my primary pawn so he can enchant weapons and shi, makes the game a lot easier. Fire, Holy and Darkness are the only ones you should focus on for the Mage as well as healing magic.

Angry Mike 18 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Someone recommend me a good XBLA game. For people who don't want credit cards on XBL, Amazon finally offers lower points tiers than 1600. Trine 2 looks interesting. Agree? Better game to pick up? Helps to know what you have. Summer of Arcade is looking good though, you might want to just wait for Deadlight. Only XBLA games I have are the two Trials games. I refuse to put a CC on XBL so I rarely bought points since the lowest you could buy was 1600. Hated having extra points I didn't need.

Angry Mike 18 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Beat the Lycan Lord in Lords of Shadow, and just finished up fighting the giant crow. I'm really liking this game, besides the controller hangups. Now you're really liking it, eh? It only gets better from then on. Once you get a hang out of what the game and the controls expect out of you, and you get to around where you are, shit gets cray. Wait till the vampire queen lady boss battle. Holy fuck at the final cutscenes there Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Holy fuck at the final cutscenes there Dude I'm like a level or two away, looking forward to it. I still don't get this game's deal with mapping a combination between left trigger and every single fucking button, but yeah I've wrangled it and can pull off some pretty sick combos. It's been more or less straight forward since the Lycan Lord, he was the only one giving me the hassle because of his cheap ground pound. I can't get over how beautiful this game is.

Rusty Shackleford 7 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 played more to the moon it's barely a game, but I'm loving it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rusty Shackleford 7 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 alright, to the moon was good well worth the 10ish bucks if you're looking for an interactive experience (about 4 hrs) with a touching and a little funny story Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's a must play for anyone who wants a great story. Like you said, anyone interested has to keep in mind its more of an interactive story than a game.

Angry Mike 18 Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 I'm sick at home and decided I'd actually finish the Prince of Persia game I bought for like 4 bucks on sale a couple weeks back. Combat is surprisingly wack, but somehow it's keeping me entertained. My brain actually has to be on for the platforming/puzzle sections. Which is nice Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kitad 95 Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Still playing Divine Divinity. Game is great, so much shit to do, explore and find. The story is cliched but epic and scope and if it would be remade with full production values it could be amazing, but the voice acting is really bad (laughably bad at least). Minor gripes is that some dungeons are way too long and kill the pacing. The game shines when you are out there exploring, finding quests and locations and stuff, the combat is not really what makes the game interesting. Also, after a couple of dungeons I already have enough money to buy everything so finding good loot is often useless. I guess I will buy a house so I can store everything.

Delita 698 Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Gungnir is pretty damn good so far. Not Sure how i'd rank it among Sting's other games yet, but so far it feels on the same level. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
