What are you currently playing?

[hickwarrior]

Aside from that, Dissidia. Lots and lots of Dissidia.

This, but the as a demo... I just can't stop and play some other game... Oh and wipeout pure demo. That's okay, although it makes me think of F-ZERO, but that's okay.

Other than that, I'l probably be playing gitaroo man lives! again. And maybe play Daxter over again, now trying to get the 100% complete.

[vgslo]

Dragon Slayer, Dungeon Explorer II, and NEO NECTARIS on the Turbo Grafx CD & YS V on the PS2...

[Andy]

I'm about to beat DDS1. What carries over into part two?

Just wondering so I can decide on whether or not to fight Beelzebub again.

Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box.

[Hanamura Yousuke]

P3FES for about the 80th time. I've logged over 300+ Hours in the main story, and gone through 2 discs. Ironically, I cannot beat the answer for the life of me :very_sad:

[Camanche]

Space Invaders still.

[blammo]

Suikoden Tierkreis- do they ever stop talking?!

Also- Etrain Odyssey and The World Ends with You.

[Yazarc]

Just started playing Devil Survivor.

[Kakizaki]

SMT I, Forgotten Worlds, Metal Gear 2 Solid Snake

Which system?


Sorry, missed this.

SFC - using SNESGT. Runs great on this emulator. I wish I would have know about it earlier.

I wish someone would make a patch for the PSX versions. :/

[FistMara]

Professor Layton and the Curious Village, Persona 2 EP(I finally made my copy work on my ps2), Devil Summoner 2, SMT:Nocturne, Persona 3 FES, DDS1, Eternal Poison, Pokemon Firered, ruby, and pearl version. I should really focus on one at a time so i actually pass them. I haven't passed most of my atlus collection which is why i need to focus on one.

[Superkenon]

Working on Devil Summoner. Taking my time with it as always, and enjoying every moment of it.

On the side, my sister and I are doing a playthrough of Tales of the Abyss on very hard. It's fun stuff.

[Hitoshura]

Aww, yeah really. Though honestly, if you've already played the SNES version, I do recommend playing the PSX version and possibly using a katakana guide to memorize all the spells. Remiel's walkthrough works well because it basically translates all the important choices so as long as you're paying attention to what choices you're making, it's easy to follow.

[False Messiah]

Persona 3 FES, Persona 4, Mother 3, Fallout 3, Super Mario RPG

[Zachalmighty]

Suikoden Tierkreis- do they ever stop talking?!

Also- Etrain Odyssey and The World Ends with You.

I just sold my copy of Suikoden, the talking got annoying and the story progressed far too slowly for my liking. Not to mention, way too many party members in any game just throws me off from enjoying it.

[Hitoshura]

Persona 3 FES, Persona 4, Mother 3, Fallout 3, Super Mario RPG

That's three too many 3's.

[Dark Warrior]

Dynasty Warriors 6 (PC, I'll play on PS3... if I have one), SRW OGs and OG Gaiden (still waiting for English version by Atlus, if they make one), SRW OG1 and OG2, Call of Duty 4.
I'll be bankrupt if I play more than these right now.

[Enzeru]

I just sold my copy of Suikoden, the talking got annoying and the story progressed far too slowly for my liking. Not to mention, way too many party members in any game just throws me off from enjoying it.
Isn't the catch with Suikoden the whole 104 party members thing? That's what I thought anyway. Everything else is standard RPG stuff.

[Fatney]

I love that you have 108 party members. And since the characters aren't balanced, you can easily pick out the best. I also love the fact that there is six party members in battles.

I haven't played Tierkreis though, it doesn't really look appealing.

I thought it would be different, 100+ characters feels way too impersonal. Atleast in a party of 8 you can know almost every character. Where as in Suikoden you end up getting different sprited/named characters that are basically clones of previous characters in skills.

[Camanche]

Final Fantasy Tactics.

[Eggn0g]

Etrian Odyssey 2 and Pokemon Platinum dont laugh at me

Oh, and I'm just about to start my second Mass Effect playthrough. I played a Paragon female character in my first playthrough, so I'm gonna be a total bastard this time round :P

[Balrog]

I had a good feeling!

[Zenieth]

Blazblue.

[Andy]

DDS2. I can't believe the amount of #### that just happened in this game. What the hell.

[Kain Mare]

Persona 4 and Dissidia: Final Fantasy.

[Castle Pokemetroid]

I am currently playing The Legend of Kage 2.

[sfried]

[Balrog]

I got Soul Blazer out again. It's so good.

[Sleepless Neko]

Tales of the Abyss.
This actualy good...

[Yazarc]

Just started a new playthrough of Alundra. It has to be about 10+ years since this game was last put in my system.

[Foobar]

Still doing Dissidia, picked up some other games for the PSP, downloaded some PSX classics, but its always back to Dissidia. Crisis Core pried me away just a little, almost. I gave Monster Hunter Freedom United a spin, but went back to Dissidia.

Really just blown away by all the little details in it. I used to play FFXI a fair bit and it was nice to not only see a character from that included but presented very damn faithfully. Fear Shantotto.

Maxed out Terra and currently working on Cecil and Shantotto evenly. Need to get back to my playthroughs of FFIV and DDS, though. And Pre-order Persona and Scribblenauts.

[IceCold_Assassin]

*Sigh* ok i just gave up on DDS1. this is just making me so pissed. I really wanna play nocturne too but i know its probably about 100x harder than DDS1.

[Fatney]

Just started Phoenix Wright: Trials and Tribulations. I also played some Soul Calibur 4 with some friends yesterday, along with Noby Noby Boy.

[Eggn0g]

*Sigh* ok i just gave up on DDS1. this is just making me so pissed. I really wanna play nocturne too but i know its probably about 100x harder than DDS1.

What exactly is pissing you off about DDS? Nocturne is a rather different game.

[Enzeru]

Trying to do every Mission in Fate/Unlimited Codes since I finshed all Arcade mode stories. *sigh* I'm trying to do everything in Arcade difficulty but Beserker is just so...

About 45% done so far. Kotomine = Best, by the way.

[Kain Mare]

And Pre-order Persona and Scribblenauts.
You can Rick Role in Scribblenauts. I kid you not.

Still playing Dissidia. Trying to max out Cecil, Firion, Cloud and Tidus before moving on.

[IceCold_Assassin]

*Sigh* ok i just gave up on DDS1. this is just making me so pissed. I really wanna play nocturne too but i know its probably about 100x harder than DDS1.

idk really just sometimes how cheap you can die. probably messed up with my mantra's as well. im just gonna take a breather and come back to it sometime and maybe restart it.

[Andy]

What part are you in? I'm playing DDS2 right now, and honestly, if you spend about an hour grinding with hunt skills you can get through anything with ease. Shame I didn't really do that til the end of DDS1, it would've made my playthrough a lot easier. Just hang out near a large karma terminal and work your way through the necessary grids.

In all honesty though, a lot of the dungeons in DDS1 were just frustrating as hell. That, coupled with the encounter rate leaning on the high side as it is can make you ragequit real fast. I wanted to put the game in the microwave the entire time I was in that stupid Prince/Princess dungeon.

Im in the waterways dungeon. I had to grind like that one time towards the beginning of the game. but ugh Im not gonna come back to it for a while.
does DDS2 have a different encounter rate? like you said the encounter rate is just insane in DDS1
I might replay smt1 again or wait till i get a hold of a copy of nocturne or something.

[jeffx]

I got Soul Blazer out again. It's so good.

Good man.

I'm on Dissidia (Zidane lv 87) and Knights of Ratatosk (chap 5)

Oh man, I feel you. I hate that dungeon, too. It's just a headache.

DDS2 has pretty much the exact same encounter rate. There's a few tweaks to the battle stystem, but it's basically a carbon copy. I guess I got used to the game now because of DDS1. It's like that entire game was a starter kit at this point. Story's getting kinda ridiculous, but I still wanna see it through to the end.

I went through the same frustration you're on when I played Devil Summoner 2. I just flat out raged on that one and won't ever play it again. Too much I didn't like ALL the time.

[Zachalmighty]

I just started playing Persona 2 Eternal punishment. Pretty awesome so far, but it feels a bit harder than P2: Tsumi was in terms of boss fights.

[Fuyukaze]

Pangya! on my PSP. Guitar Hero World Tour on my 360.

[Constraint]

Dissidia. Currently doing Bartz' story mode.
Gotta love Kefka's english VA.

[Fatney]

Im in the waterways dungeon.

Haha, that's exactly where I quit playing. I think there was this giant turtle that suddenly appeared and wiped out my whole team. Good times...

[Zachalmighty]

Anyone fight Hitler for the last time in Persona 2 Tsumi? When you beat him he turns into Jun's father and attacks you again. Only problem is, the three boss fights it took to get that far in the dungeon exhausted me of all my snuff souls/jewels to heal my guys. Is there a way without walking out of the entire dungeon to beat Jun's fake father easily?

[Hamel]

There's supposed to be an elevator in the dungeon

[Zachalmighty]

There's supposed to be an elevator in the dungeon

I tried to go in it, I got some stupid message like Jun: I don't think we can enter that yet.

[kolaces]

Beat Brave Story: New Traveler.

About twelve hours into Final Fantasy X. The characters seem to resemble those of Final Fantasy XII.

[Commander-Lynx]

I was playing P4 but lent it to my girlfriend so she can catch up to where I am.

I've lately been playing fallout and I guess waiting for the DLC coming to the PS3.

I have urges all the time to get a new game but I tell myself I'll live with the games I have.

Maybe I should get back into Metal Gear Online

[RayFoxSith]

Final Fantasy X. I've been having a craving to go back and play it from the beginning.

[Fatney]

Finally I'm playing Valkyrie Chronicles. And it's a lot of fun, too.

[Chromanin]

Been binging on "Guitar Hero 5" while mixing in "Ghostbusters" and "Stuntman" on the side.

[Castle Pokemetroid]

I just finished off The Ledgend of Kage 2.

Gah, so much time wasted getting all those pictures, every last one of them.

[Crabman]

So I finally bought GRID. Got it for my PS3 for $15; a rather reasonable price.

Even though I played the demo on 360, it still took a while to get used to again. GRID sort of pitches itself as the arcade/sim. And for the most part, it's kinda right. Cars don't turn on a dime - braking is required, correct lines are rewarded.

But in a video-gamey sort of sense. There are things that don't actually happen in real racing, whether it be the physics, AI or tracks. Everything has this sort of video game bent to it, this slight tinge of unrealism that elevates the game slightly.

The AI is brutally violent. Not in an F-Zero GX sort of way - they still have to maintain, you know, common sense - but the AI will bump you, will bruise you, will try to #### with you. Tracks are littered with objects that go careening, and the Japanese tracks are incredibly hazardous. The cars (that I've played with so far) have different handling, vaugely approximating the actual cars - 350Z's do understeer at the limit, Vipers are tail a happy - but you can do the number one thing should should NEVER do in a real race car, which is brake and turn for a corner at the same. These are just some examples, but it adds up, to give GRID something I haven't experienced in a racer in a while.

Rhythm.

But it's not a set rhythm, because of the violent AI, because of tracks with just a little more #### to screw you up. It's changing, evolving - bunches of cars are minefields, with tiptoe throttle control to get out unscathed, but ####, here comes a wall... - but it still has this feel to it, one of repitiion until you get it right. But you aren't repeating for patterns - you're repeating simply to get better. Refreshingly realistic.

I say this because I refuse to use the rewind feature. If you #### up, you do it again. That's how I see racers, so it can be frustrating, but pulling it off - a clean race, adapting to that varying rhythm - feels extraordinary.

I think even the developers knew this - as no music plays during a race. It's a nod to focus and intent.

So, ironically, this game is like a more organic Mirror's Edge on wheels. Mirror's Edge has that same feel to it, of rhythm, but Mirror's Edge is multiple paths, same enemies, where as GRID is one path, with changing enemies, which feels all the better.

[GB140]

Tales of Vesperia - I would of beat any other RPG a while ago, but it keeps me interested in it's story. The Artes can be confusing at times, only until I've been doing it wrong all this time. (To use Burst Artes, you must be in Over Limit, and you gotta HOLD the A button to activate. I thought it was to press A as soon as the Arte ended, boy was I wrong...)

[Constraint]

Soul Nomad - I've gotten few new hero units, like Oldie who has a lot of int. I've also got a room with 8 slots, so that's pretty rare.

[Fatney]

I'm replaying Assassin's Creed. I thought I never would do it, but after seeing how good the sequel is going to be, I just had to. The first game is pretty bad overall, but I really like the good parts. I'm glad they are keeping the good parts in the sequel and fixing/adding a lot of stuff. And I hope they are going to let me skip the cutscenes!

[Soushi_Grapple]

I picked up Final Fantasy VIII again (I was going for a perfect file, but I missed one of the magazines because it didnt show up..) and I tweaked around with my Parasite Eve EX game file. I'm too busy with writing/school to play much right now. ><;

Edit: Constraint, I just spent the last two hours filling out my backloggery, lol. It's infectious.

[DamageCity]

Played a little Dungeons and Dragons Online this weekend now that it's free. I'm not into online games but my brother and a couple friends were playing and it's the first weekend I've spent in the apartment in the last three months.

[Crabman]

SMT: Nocturne. I haven't beat it yet, but have put in a good chunk of time into it (a little over 30 hours so far).

The more you play this game, the more you learn to love this game. The quirks of the art design, characters and demons become even more pronounced.

But the more you put into it, the more you see the concept of Reason get tossed around, and through different characters - characters I previously thought as genteel now out right hate me - you see how deeply these ideals change them, confuse them. But then something hit me yesterday.

I was going through the Labyrinth of Amala (Second Kalpa) so I could get a Deathstone; I wanted to get a Hell Biker. Upon entering the Kalpa, God literally beams down and tries to pull you off the path tainted by power and greed. I continue anyways, puting myself through that godforsaken invisible wall maze, netting some Deathstones, Macca and other items in the process. After getting a near heartattack when I entered the Third Kalpa, I headed out and finally made my Hell Biker when it hit me like a brick wall; despite my intentions as a gamer, at the end of the day, I played through the Second Kalpa because I was seduced by power!

That's the basics of it all, and it spoke volumes about my play habits and even my personal habits. Even outside of games, I think I am a little curious about dabbling in sin...which is actually kind of scary.

It's pretty scary to realize that the player, not the avatar in the game, to be the monster.

Nocturne will probably be the game for me in which it made me sensitive again in a medium desensitized by violence, gore, and eyebrow raising themes. For that alone I could commend it, but it's also a damn fine game.

[nbinney]

I finally finished the last challenge in Retro Game Challenge. Now I went back to Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow, and I'm trying to finish it on Julius Mode.

I bought Rockband Beatles but I'm waiting for a day that my girlfriend and I have off so we can get the achievement for finishing story mode in one day.

Lol, I love the classic SMT music playing during that scene, and the added effect of the classic Messiah and Gaea Cult with the Messiah begging you to leave the Labyrinth.

In any case, I'm currently playing Final Fantasy X, planning on getting Persona 3 FES and Persona 4.

It's pretty much my first Final Fantasy[lol oxymoron] and the story seems grand and all, but it's kinda slow-paced and I really want to see that Auron again.

Planning on playing Odin Sphere and Nocturne[166 hours in. once I clean my PS2 Lenses.]
and maybe even Persona

[IceCold_Assassin]

Digital devil saga 1: Allright after a few days of grinding I beat that waterway dungeon. and then did the next one with ease. getting plenty of macca. might grind some more for the last(?) dungeon.

Digital devil saga 1: Allright after a few days of grinding I beat that waterway dungeon. and then did the next one with ease. getting plenty of macca. might grind some more for the last(?) dungeon.

What dungeon are you on? You'll know when you're at the final one. It's pretty obvious. Even if it is REALLY long. Battles are really frustrating in that place. If you grind a bit at each Large Terminal you should be okay. Just have Quick Escape equipped when you get into the really obnoxious stream of random battles and leave right away. Best to just make a mad dash for the next terminals so you can grind at your leisure.

On that note, I just now finished DDS2. Gotta say, I really enjoyed the ending. Which is surprising for me to say given the horrible final dungeon that came before it. I swear, I don't think I've ever been more frustrated just roaming a dungeon before. You couldn't take two steps without getting into a fight, and to top it all off there were so many puzzles, dead ends, and backtracking, backtracking, and even more backtracking.

But like I said, it's a very satisfying end to one of the more interesting games I've played in my time. Good times.

This means I can finally move on and play P3 FES for the first time.

PS

I also picked up Garry's Mod on Steam for a fiver, so I'm trying to squeeze in some time with that as well. Whole lotta gamin'. Good thing work isn't crazy.

[hickwarrior]

Dissidia. I just have to play to get that strong weapon and unlock most of the game. Or beat that one NPC I just can't with awesome stuff. So, just dissidia.

[Crow T. Robot]

SMT: Nocturne still (level grinding like a mother). Just got done with the Obelisk (first time) and I forgotten how annoying that place is. I'm so glad the bosses were easy.

I havent entered it yet, im just assuming since im on my way to nirvana. I think im towards the end at least. :p

[SonicNights]

Cross Edge. It's definitely a fun little RPG, despite the lackluster graphics. :)

[Andy]

Good luck on getting through DDS1, Assassin. The trek to the final boss is a tough one, but the boss itself is a huge pushover.

I was going to finally start my first playthrough for Persona 3, but I think I'm gonna hold off on that until I get and beat Persona PSP. I hate playing two RPGs at the same time. Same thing always happens to me; I play one for too long and then go back to the other one and forget half the stuff I did.

I'll just go and get Gitaroo Man or Parappa the Rapper to hold me over.

[Yazarc]

I'm actually playing through Beyond the Beyond. Other than a high encounter rate on the overworld and a lack of real challenge it's not a bad game. I think I fell victim to listening to all the negative reviews about it years ago. Now that I come back to it, I'm able to enjoy it more.

The worst thing I can really say about it is all of the backtracking required can be a little maddening.

[Enzeru]

Played The Letter -
Nice, short visual novel. Mad me cry about 3 times, which is a lot considering it only took an hour to get through. Extremely recommended!

http://altogether.insani.org/2008/3.html

Playing through "Red Shift." Makes me think of a non-moe blob slice of life.

http://insani.org/redshift.html

[Crabman]

SMT Nocturne. I played it for like...10 hours yesterday?

Yeah, it's bloody good.

[Manic Expressive]

^No kidding, Nocturne to me is probably the best RPG of the PS2/Xbox/GC era, hands down.

[Soushi_Grapple]

I keep meaning to start a file on Nocturne. I picked it up once, but put it down. I love that gameplay style, but the story was lacking for me at first glance. I know which path I want now so I hope after I complete FES and Devil Summoner titles I can get to it. It takes patience, that's for sure.

I'm in the final dungeon of DDS2. I'd say the final dungeon of DDS1 was ten times easier than the one for 2. There's warps, dead ends, ect ect.

I'm not really playing anything currently. I'm watching my gf play Harvest Moon [again] but I need to pick up FES. I keep procrastinating.

[Crabman]

At first I was sort of turned off by Nocturne's story as well, because this is the first game I've played which really isn't an expose of the main characters life - it's about seeing how the world around the characters are affecting them. Slowly they transform, not becoming much different than Hikawa himself. In this regard, Nocturne is facinating. It's like The Shining - it's not enjoyable in a Tranformers sense, but you can't help but not watch.

[Enzeru]

It's like The Shining - it's not enjoyable in a Tranformers sense, but you can't help but not watch.
Transformers is enjoyable? :p

But anyway, finished Red Shift. Started Moonshine. Not very far in yet, but the totally unedited real life backgrounds are a turn off for me.

I'm about to beat MS Saga, currently at the Giant G System on the moon. After that I will probably continue to play Grandia and BoF IV on my PSP.

[Foobar]

Trying to finish Crisis Core today. Getting a little annoyed with the optional missions, though, seems the difficulty rating for each isn't always accurate. That and I don't like how Zack levels up. I don't mind the slots for summoning and limit breaks, but leveling up shouldn't be random.

[Enzeru]

Unfortunately, I'm playing The Last Remnant. It really sucks. But why wont I stop!?
I <3 the Last Remnant!

Finsihed Moonshine. It's a good game, despite the BGs.

Finished Adagio. Another good visual novel.

Played through Night of the Forget Me Nots a couple times...Nice game.

Started Summer, Cicadas, and the Girl. Cute novel.

Spent some quality time leveling in the hospital few hours back. got to level 15 there.

[Yazarc]

My very first time in the Velvet Room resulted in a fusion accident in Persona that gave me a Level 14 persona when the rest of my party is at 6. Not only was it my first visit, it was my VERY FIRST fusion.

congrats :]

[Superkenon]

I'm working my way through Devil Survivor still, enjoying it very much.

The recent price-cut prompted me to get a PS3 recently, so now I'm playing Disgaea 3 as well. Just finished the game, and am doing the 2nd Cycle with an entirely new team.

[Fatney]

Oh wow, Persona is out already? I'm jealous.

I started on FFIX for the 1000th time. It's a brand new copy on an (almost) brand new PS3, so it feels fresh in a way.

[IceCold_Assassin]

.Hack G.U. Volume 1: So far its pretty good. Kinda cool how it really seems like an mmo. It seems a little hard to take the story seriously sometimes. When I saw Hiseo get PK'd at the very begining I kept thinking of that one south park episode where stan's dad dies on world of warcraft and hes making dying noises into the mic:tongue:

[hickwarrior]

Still dissidia here. Although i do some S4league on the side.

Annyway, Dissidia's definitely frustrating, especially the duel colloseum. Especially if you get stuck, because all the boss cards are lvl 30 with maximum strength.

MS Saga was a fun game. Playing mix and match with the parts was entertaining. :)

I'm playing Persona 3 now, and Devil Survivor and Scribblenauts on my DS. Waiting on my Persona PSP to arrive. (And of course, WoW).

[Crabman]

Nocturne. Beat the Diet Building...nearing the end of the game :(

I love my Daisoujou. Meditation + Debilitate = MP shutdown! I didn't expect it would be so effective from the suggestions online. Now I can beat that piece of #### Mara. It's kinda my fault though, I stupidly gave up Focus in the beginning of the game, thinking "I wanna make a magic guy!"...not realizing how high the St bonuses later matagama give you.

[Lumi]

Currently I'm on the verge of playing and finishing:

Final fantasy 12 & 10-2
Sonic Unleashed
Devil Mat Cry 3
Tomb Raider
Need 4 speed

[Hanamura Yousuke]

Unfortunately, I'm playing The Last Remnant. It really sucks. But why wont I stop!?
I <3 the Last Remnant!

Finsihed Moonshine. It's a good game, despite the BGs.

Finished Adagio. Another good visual novel.

Played through Night of the Forget Me Nots a couple times...Nice game.

Started Summer, Cicadas, and the Girl. Cute novel.

WHAT?! It is the most infuriating game on the planet! Case and Point: The move "Curse". D:<

[maddy]

prof layton &the diabolical box! i can't stop!! i just love solving!

[massaker]

Persona3 and Tales of Vesperia. I'm sick of crappy games so I'm playing Anime JRPG's untill someone makes something worth playing again.

[Hitoshura]

^Bionic Commando Rearmed and Shadow Complex.

Gah, new page. That's to you, massaker.

[Raguna]

Persona 4 Again and Megaten Online

Now that's good logic!:p

[Saishu]

Disgaea 2: Dark Hero Days. I like playing old games on PSP :)

[Iris]

I've been replaying Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones, since Persona PSP isn't really that well suited for playing in ten minute breaks at work.

Except this time I'm finally playing it in English, since back when it came out stateside I picked it up, did two chapters, and realized I wasn't in the mood to play the whole thing again so soon after I beat it in Japanese.

[Crow T. Robot]

'Fatal Frame 2'
Been looking for ANY FF games and found this one at work so I bought it and decided to take a break from Nocturne.
Haven't played any Fatal Frame games but always wanted to give em a go, since I love Survivor Horror.

[Kakizaki]

Blood Will Tell.

[hickwarrior]

SMT: Persona. Got it yesterday. I started it, but it doesn't feel like the story picked up, nor the gameplay. Hopefully that improves during the game.

[Hamel]

Blood Will Tell.

Great game

[Yazarc]

Still playing an hour or so of Persona each night. I've been really busy lately.

[Olethros]

Dead Space

[Enzeru]

Persona, Snow Queen Quest. Haven't really gotten to the split, though. xD

[Foobar]

Juggling act:

Working on Devil Surivivor alternate paths.

Just got Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, the handheld versions continue to be better than the console ones, it seems.

On PS2 its alternating between FFXII and grinding DDS1 stuff

Persona on PSP and small daily doses of Dissidia, Dissidia seeing heavier play on bonus days.

[Delition]

Blood Will Tell.

Great game

Seconded. Probably my favorite Hack-n-Slash type game.

As for me, my friend and I finished Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 recently, and I finally finished Final Fantasy IV (DS). Now I'm playing Persona (PSP) and I've been playing Earth Defense Force 2017 lately.

[RayFoxSith]

Decided to install my Brotherhood of Steel expansion, but I finished the Pitt and I can't find the equipment I came in with. Someone know where it is?

[harlequ1n]

Being finally playing (about an hour a day) FF VII now that I can play it on my PS3, cool game and all but don't get what's so amazing about it... maybe it was revolutionary when it first came out but is it a pain to play now!

[Soushi_Grapple]

Kingdom Hearts: Days and Persona.

[Fatney]

Decided to install my Brotherhood of Steel expansion, but I finished the Pitt and I can't find the equipment I came in with. Someone know where it is?

It should be in a box or a locker or something just after you are finished with that arena thing. In the room you are automatically spawned in after finishing with the arena, if I remember correctly.

[Hitoshura]

Ys Seven... this is... possibly the best Ys game. Damn this needs to come to America...

[hickwarrior]

Still persona. God... Now I know why I shouldn't play the SQQ during my first playthrough. It can easily take hours to get to the boss of a tower, then losing to said boss and being restarted to the beginning... Oh, and you don't know its attacks and other important stats... If you haven't looked it up.

So, frustration abound for me. And my psp crashed durig a normal playthrough... I have the most rotten luck of all...

[Enzeru]

Persona, SQQ. I saw "that" FMV. xD

[ZhePrime]

Yakuza 2 and DMC4

[Fatney]

I've been playing Batman: Arkham Asylum and Diablo II all day. Both are excellent games. I'm almost finished with Batman, though.

[Triface]

Currently playing the PSP release of Persona, as well as Final Fantasy 3 on the DS. I'm awaiting the release of Demon's Soul.

I was hoping my job/store would be getting the deluxe edition but we're not so I'm gonna just get from Amazon (people don't buy games from that site for nothin). Also sucks I won't be getting a PS3 until the end of the month since my used one (big mistake) stopped reading blu ray.

Thanks Fatney. Was just where you said it was. :3

[stalepie]

I'm playing CANABALT!!!! Wheee!!!! jump!! jump!!! now hit a box to keep at a pleasant medium speed!!! uh oh i hit too many boxes :(

record is 13,000 meters! :D

Also tried Silent Hill 2, Siren and Fatal Frame, but I got disinterested. Oooh and Splatterhouse 2 . Now that one's fun... :D :D :D

[Delition]

I think I prefer Splatterhouse 1 over 2, but I love them both. I've been playing Brawl some more, as we are having a gaming get-together at the community room in our apartment complex and that'll be one of the games we will be playing. I'm hoping I can convince enough people to play Street Fighter IV with me.

[Crabman]

Yakuza.

I've played a little bit of Yakuza 2, but didn't get vary far. I found the first, and decided to put more time in it.

As always, the delivery of the story is top notch. Excessively brutal, well directed and well acted (mostly), Yakuza feels like a gangster film. There are no cheap tricks, no magic involved (yet?), not death-defying acobatics. Just people, who happen to be stuck in a violent world. It feels so wholesome.

Kazuma, the main character in the game, has got to be one of the best characters I've ever seen. He is truly multifacted; gentle, punkish, serious - you could pretty much throw any term at Kazuma and it would fit. He's so wonderfully realized, and the direction doesn't treat the player and Kazuma differently - we know and learn what he does. This is an interesting point, because far too often games feel this need to obviously foreshadow events, and then expect us to sympathize with a character. The problem is that many games spend so much time trying to build a connection with that character; once we learn more, it becomes severed, and by the time the in-game character learns of the issue, you wonder what a stupid #### he is.

The combat is a little eh. It does offer an impressive amount of expandability, but it's also plagued by a rubbish camera. In Yakuza, you don't really lock-on to anyone - it's kind of loose, in that Kazuma will pound who ever is in front of him when he takes a stance, but that's about it. The system mechanics are in place - when it works, it feels solid, wonderfully brutal, crunchy, but the targeting system makes it feel too sloppy and imprecise. I did notice that once I got the level 3 dodging abillity, the lock-on seemed to work much better - likely the increased distance allowed the game not to give up in confusion.

It's definitely an interesting game. It is not GTA in Japan - it's really just an action game with light RPG elements. Regardless of how you classify it, it's pretty damn good.

[GB140]

Persona PSP - Really fun. Just grinding in the Black Market. I almost got crushed by that cat robot.

[Zachalmighty]

Playing Wizardry Tales of a Forsaken Land, Valkyria Chronicles, and Persona PSP.

I have a question for anyone thats played Wizardry, my main character is evil for some reason and I know I started him with good attribute. My question is, how can I return him to a nuetral or good standing? He is currently level 5 and I haven't left the first floor yet.

You are going to have to define the color of a friendly monster. And please tell me how to change to good or neutral.

[Kakizaki]

They don't have a different color. Right before a battle, a prompt may come up that says something like "this is a friendly pack of monsters - attack? yes or no." If you want to remain friendly or even neutral, do not attack these monsters.

As to how to switch back, not attacking friendlies is one thing that contributes, but there are several other ways.

[harlequ1n]

I'm soothing the pain while my copy of Demon's Souls comes to Spain by playing Vagrant Story :)

Yeh I haven't gotten into any battles with friendly monsters then, would you mind explaining the other ways to become good? Or all they all dependent on my choices in conversations with the NPC's. Because I've been answering them all in nice ways.

[Kakizaki]

^I would probably have to refer you to Gfaqs then unless someone else remembers. I picked up Wizardry ToFL when it came out in December '01. Played it to death, loved it, and haven't looked at it much for probably 5+ years. My memory is a little bit rusty in regards of what to do. Most people that have a alignment switch very early in the game are killing friendly monsters.

[Foobar]

Grabbed Dragon Quest Wars off DSiWare today, then Thexder Neo and Prinny off PSN. Needed some lighter stuff to offset Persona PSP and KH 358/3 Days.

Funny thing about KH - I always like the installments everyone else seems to hate. I don't find Sora terribly interesting and find the combat of the console games to be fairly dull, yet have a blast with Chain of Memories and Days.

[Flagg]

Viking Battle Of Asgard

Aint much fun but i got it cheap and i need something to play while waiting to Resident Evil 5 and Sacred 2 pop up in my mailbox.

Did you play KH2 on normal or proud? Honestly, while I really enjoyed the game on Proud, I had an INSANE amount of fun with KH2FM+ on Critical. The game pretty much made you play it like you would DMC3 or something. It made combat MUCH more interesting.

I don't import RPGs as a policy. Also, simply tweaking a difficulty setting doesn't fix inherently flawed gameplay mechanics, it just changes enemy stat parameters and makes the flaws more obvious.

That and they perfected the system KH was trying to do in Dissidia, which makes it almost impossible to want to endure them again elsewhere. Sure its one-on-one brawler, but even so it has a stronger system.

[ViolenceJack]

Fuel.

[Fatney]

I picked up Call of Duty 4 again. The two first missions made the game seem so boring, but it became much better. A perfect mindless shooter for some quick and intense fun!

Incorrect. They do more than just "tweaking a difficulty setting". They also add in very useful new abilities, as well as an additional form, plus I believe you missed the part where I said "made you play it like you would DMC3 or something", as in, "what flaws? This is the game it was supposed to be. Timing during blocking and dodging are essential. Combat requires strategy instead of just pure buttonmashing." Besides, KH 358/2 days plays pretty much the same way as normal KH2... only because my fingers are crammed on the DS's tiny buttons it's far less enjoyable to play. :/ The only real difference is HOW you get abilities, but the actual battle gameplay remains the same, with the addition of the limit system.

[Fatney]

Foobar: I can't really agree with you on saying Dissidia perfected the system in KH... I don't see much similarity between the two games except the Final Fantasy elements and the graphics.

Also, I prefer the fun buttonmashing in KH rather than the confusing buttonmashing in Dissidia.

[dragonlife29]

The Ability system bears a strong resemblance to KH, as do the reaction commands. Except the reaction commands there are context sensitive to the environment or launching moves and not opponents/allies like Kingdom Hearts 2.

There's nothing confusing about Dissidia's combat, you fight over Bravery points to use to deal HP attacks. I think that's a rather novel approach, really, and perfect for a competitive RPG.

[RayFoxSith]

Demon's Souls. I'm really liking it so far. I've died once so far, but only because I twitched and fell. You have to be very careful about your surroundings with this game.

[Kakizaki]

Pulled out Space Channel 5 and Powerstone for Maddy to play.

[Camanche]

Kirby's Adventures and Castlevania.

[Andy]

I'm a little embarrassed at how much fun I had with DJ Hero today.

P3, Level 72, just made Micheal. Been playing this on and off for years, lol.

Want to start up DDS2 maybe this weekend. Demon's souls is good and everything, but I like smt more.

[Enzeru]

My brother usually buys every mainstream music game, but no luck on DJ Hero, the one that I actually *want* to play. Guess I'll have to buy the Renegade Edition myself, then.

Eternal Sonata (360).

I like it. Why is it that whenever you post, it's full of win?

[Balrog]

Kirby's Adventures and Castlevania.

Nice!


I'm playing Demon's Souls and Sparkster.

[Fatney]

Deeemooon's Soooouls. I love the game!

[iammako3]

Tried Demon's Souls, but it's just not my kind of game. I'll stick with Persona (PSP) for now.

[Guni]

For now I'm only playing FFT War of the Lions and Persona PSP.

[Andy]

Deeemooon's Soooouls. I love the game!

I need to get a PS3 already. I'm dying to play this.

I just spent a couple of hours playing the Peace Walker demo. So awesome.

[GB140]

Persona PSP - Yay, so awesome right now.

[dunno001]

Hmm... good question. I guess the easiest way for me to answer is by system?

DS: Dragon Quest 5
PSP: Persona
Wii: FF4- After Years
360: Operation Darkness
PS2: Tsugunai

...maybe I should actually finish some games?

[BaizDaza]

Demon's Souls.

Sorry SMT: Persona, I'll pick you up another day.

A million tears. ;_;

[kolaces]

Made one attempt each at Golden Axe 1, 2, and 3 with my brother. Didn't make it past the fourth stage in any of them, but had a good time.

Defeated Yunalesca in FFX.

Got my party wiped by Abandoned Factory/SEBEC Offices boss. Should've expected it, as my party was higher leveled when I cleared it on normal mode (then I found out I was stuck with Brown, and restarted on expert).

[Constraint]

Still playing KOF 94'.
Suprisingly, the U.S.A team rocks, especially Heavy D.

[MomoChan]

Replaying P3 FES when not playing PSP Persona.

I want to perfect my "The Journey" team.

[Manic Expressive]

Persona PSP, currently in Sebec. So I realized that I hadn't found a place to buy weapons and armor and it sorta confused me and then I went to equip and optimize and it threw on all the gear I had collected up until then, which to my surprise were full entire sets for everyone in the party. Seriously though, where can I find me some weapons/armor to buy?

[Andy]

I really want to finally start Persona PSP, but after beating P3 I decided on playing The Grind. Sorry, The Answer.

The repetition is annoying, and the sole fact that it exists really irks me. I have no idea why they'd revisit a story that ended so perfectly. I like the flashbacks and all that, but I'm just real sour on the whole experience.

I hope it ends well enough to justify its existence.

[Fatney]

It does end pretty well. I would say the final boss justify the grind.

Playing Demon's Souls, but it doesn't seem like the servers work today?

Forget that, I just had to reload my game.

[perrandy]

well, i'm playing mana khemia 2. the game is pretty cool and funny(specially,the ulrika path)i'm having a good time in making recipes and fighting monsters for $$.however, the game is not perfect because it has some slowdowns and at one point it freezes over when you fight certain monster.oh well, i guess that comes with the territory if you know what i mean...:p

[dragonlife29]

I'm replaying the awesomeness of PERUSONA FOA.

[littlefuzzy1]

An Atlus trifecta plus 1! I'm not sure if all of them were developed by Atlus.

Rule of Rose (PS2) - I need to get back to that.

Izuna: Legend of the Unemployed Ninja (NDS) - I need to get back to this, as well.

Ontamarama (NDS) - I beat the story mode, and have an "S" rank on the first 10 songs (on easy.) So sue me, I'm not a rythym gamer... :p This is actually pretty easy to pick up for 5 minutes, beat a song, and put it down again. I don't know that I'll be able to do much of anything on the higher difficulties.

Samurai Western - I beat it on normal, I've beat the high score on each stage, except for the "Extra" stages. I still need to go through on hard, and beat the high scores on those levels as well. Also, I need to find the other playable characters, and beat the various stages with each victory condition (time limit, no master mode, no falling, constant master mode, no grabbing.) I think I need to do that on normal AND hard, ther emay be other stuff to do as well: Challenge mode, Insane mode, etc.

You find most of it
but later in the game you can buy them

[Foobar]

Well, I've set aside Persona PSP for the time being. I'm not having a problem with the game, its just between that and my Persona 4 Expert Mode run, I needed a fresh experience in my rotation.

So I'm bouncing between Jeanne D'Arc and wrapping up my original Phantasy Star Portable campaign on PSP for now, playing Dissidia on the bonus days as well. Jeanne D'Arc is every bit as awesome as people had been telling me. Level 5 is often hit-or-miss with me, I hated the Dark Cloud games with a passion (I hate random dungeon with no purpose to them other than being random) and found Rouge Galaxy an utter bore to play but Dragon Quest VIII, Professor Layton and Jenne D'Arc have all been extremely enjoyable.

PS2 its all about P4. I'm having as much fun as I did on the original play through, this time the major goal being ready to challenge the optional boss and max out as many Social Links as I can.

DS I'm still focusing on KH 358/2 Days. I'm really liking the Panel system in this game, its a much more fun way of customizing your character abilities. Think I'm gonna follow up with Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia.

[banballow]

Brütal Legend
I'm up to the second stage battle. Trying to decide whether to kick things off, or try to find two more Bound Serpents to release, so that I can maybe get a nice bonus that would help me or my troops. That and I just enjoy driving around in this game, surprisingly fun by itself.

[ViolenceJack]

Switching between Fuel and Lost Odyssey. I hadn't played LO since I got my HDTV, it sure looks a lot nicer.

[Andy]

It does end pretty well. I would say the final boss justify the grind.

I hope you're right, man. Some of the bosses are thrown at you to make you think strategically, and afterwards you just feel awesome for winning. Other bosses are just flat out cheap and hard, and the only real way to win is to gain another three or four levels.

I'm at the second to last door. I know it looks like I'm almost at the end, but I know I'm really not. Can't fool me, Atlus.

Downloaded Fallout 3 for the PC. I'm glad I can run this game halfway decent with full resolution on my 2 years old laptop. I remember people telling me before I bought the computer that it would get outdated really fast, but it can still run some kinda heavy games like Bioshock and Fallout 3. I was pretty lucky and found a decent laptop to a decent price :D

Fallout 3 is kinda funner on the computer, by the way.

Ontamarama
I'm thinking I'm going to unlock what is available on easy mode, MAYBE try to play through the story on normal mode, and call it quits (once I get S ranking on all songs on easy.)

Samurai Western
I beat normal mode, I probably will try to go through hard mode, and find the wanted posters, but I don't know if I will try all the grinding to get to level 99, unlocking EVERY character available, or EVERY accessory available. Some of the higher things require you to beat every level with every condition on each level - time limit, no master mode, constant master mode (mutually exclusive), no falling, no grabbing - and I just see a lot of work for that, and I am kind of getting tired of the game.

360: Just ordered Tales of Vesperia so I'll be playing that. I'm tired of waiting for the PS3 version. Just watch, Namco will finally announce a release date for us westerners. >.>

Um... guess you missed where the voice actors let it slip that they returned to the studio, huh.

Oh well, it's a great game, worth playing several times.
O.O You're joking right? Any links? If you're serious, I just wasted $27. Well, I guess I could play the 360 version once and do everything else on the PS3 version...

[kingboo25]

you guys need to play R2

[banballow]

Still playing Brütal Legend... and am now working on Wet as well.

Played Afrika a bit, but I have to say that it's been a bit disappointing so far. Probably just the beginning... the driver chooses where we head, and if I wander to far from the car, there's an invisible border that sends you back to it. Really cuts into the exploring I was hoping I could do at my leisure.

Edit: I was expecting this game to be relaxing, but I swear if this guy takes me to the Umbrella Tree one more time I'm gonna bash his head in with my camera. I'll say it was a Hippo attack or something.

I'm giving Fiesta a try (free anime-styled mmorpg) I'm on the server that starts with"A", if anyone cares! :p

[Fatney]

I finished the first Fallout :)

[Andy]

Taking a break from Demon's Souls to play Uncharted 2 :) Fun game.

I want a PS3 already, damn it. I need to turn in my work right away so I can get one with Uncharted 2, Demon's Souls, and lots of other fun stuff.

I beat The Answer this morning. Those final bosses in the game (the ones in the actual dungeons, not coliseum) were really trying my patience. I'm also really glad the story wasn't too ridiculous or superfluous as I originally thought. The flashbacks were a nice tough, and the glimpse into MC's bigger moments really felt sad. The actual final moments of the game felt a bit rushed to me. I couldn't imagine what else they could've shown to end the game, so I really shouldn't nitpick.

The one thing this game did wonderfully is just make me love Aigis even more.

FINALLY, I get to start Persona: PSP.

[Zachalmighty]

I just beat Valkyria Chronicles today.

[Hanamura Yousuke]

I finally beat The Ethereal Queen in Star Ocean: TLH. (Tears of joy were literally flowing.)

Now I'm moving waaaaay back to some good ol' Steambot Chronicles.

[Crow T. Robot]

I havent played any video games for a week now I think.
What with my shoulder and the meds, I've just been so drained.

I find the remedy is usually more gaming for me. I was hit by a drunk driver on Friday night and can't really move around a lot without lots of pain, so staying in and taking my medication while plowing through my stack of unplayed games is great right now.

[Tukulis]

Demon's Soul and Batman. Both are top notch games.

[Olethros]

STILL slowly working through Tales of Vesperia. It's gotten better, but there's still something about this series that just doesn't connect for me. Plus, moving (into a new house, not in game) is putting a serious crimp into my gaming time.

[Enzeru]

Playing a bit of Revelation - Lands of Kaldana. I have no friends there, so if anyone plays (although I'm a very low level), my username there is Meatarashii.

Good luck with that

Might want to have that medic alert tag ready old guy :p

[Olethros]

Thanks guys. As is my usual luck I'm planning on moving all of the furniture tomorrow and it's supposed to dump buckets of rain! :mad:


(And yes Sickle, just like the former surgeon general I do wear my life alert. No falling and not getting back up for this old fogey!)

[slayn]

Thanks guys. As is my usual luck I'm planning on moving all of the furniture tomorrow and it's supposed to dump buckets of rain! :mad:

The single greatest thing I've ever spent money on was paying some guys to move all of my stuff from my old apartment to my house.

[banballow]

Brütal Legend still. Stopping right before the first big Stage Battle with the Drowning Doom for tonight. Making slow progress, not that the game is hard, but between Afrika, Wet and this...

Also, Afrika got a bit better after the guide finally left... though I have to admit, it's still a bit more boring than I had imagined.

Thing is though these meds I'm on make me light headed so I could barely look at the TV for more then 30 seconds without feeling woozy.

Hope you feel better soon :<

Strange Journey. It's a new demon called "Frost Ace."

Thanks, man. Hope you're off the medication and get back to gaming for real.

I have Killing Floor pre-loaded on my Steam waiting for the free weekend. See what all the fuss is about.

[Andy]

The demo for the PSP Lunar remake is on the Japanese PSN site.

Gotta grab it.

[Hitoshura]

Borderlands.

[Fatney]

I'm also playing Borderlands, with a friend. I almost love the game.

[Crow T. Robot]

Thanks to Andy's words of care and comfort I'm off the meds and back to playing Digital Devil Saga.
I stopped on Nocturne since I've already played that years ago, it's only fair to give DDS some love since I haven't finished it.

[banballow]

... finished Brütal Legend this morning before work. :(
... I hate finishing good games. Sure, there are still Bound Serpents to free, Metal Forges and Buried Metal to raise, Jumps to... jump... and plenty of side missions, but the stories over. :(

[Crabman]

Silent Hill 2. My first survival horror game, because RE4 and RE5 sure as hell don't count.

[Flagg]

Sacred 2 and Resident Evil 5 for the second time.

Also ordered Dynasty Warriors 6 and Condemned yesterday so i'm playing those soon too.

[Crabman]

Just beat Silent Hill 2. Onto DDS1...finally!

[Fatney]

I hope you loved Silent Hill 2. If not, I'm deeply disappointed in you!

[Crabman]

Game was awesome. Once you start to piece together all the imagery, it becomes a very rewarding game to play. My only complaint is that on Normal/Normal it's pretty easy.

But the atmosphere of the game, it ranks with Half-Life 2 and SoTC. The town is practically a character on its own!

As I type this...I still hear the sounds of the radio. SH2 has definitely left a mark on me.

[IceCold_Assassin]

Replaying Crisis core. havent played this in a long while.

[ViolenceJack]

I was playing Fallout 3, going for the Lv8 Good character achievement, gotten the Evil and Neutral ones. Before that I had been playing Crash Course on Left for Dead but the server kept.. crashing.

[Chie_fan]

Persona 4...finally close to beating it, only a few months left.
Tomorrow, my copies of Uncharted and Valkyria Chronicles should arrive so, hopefully, I'll be playing those aswell.

[westpoint]

Demon Souls

Nice, dude! Good luck on DDS. It's a bit unrelenting at parts, but it's most certainly worth the trouble.

A friend of mine just REALLY came through for me:

[Fatney]

I'm going to play Dark Chronicles/Dark Cloud 2 soon... I love that game.

[littlefuzzy1]

I played some Borderlands on split-screen co-op at a friend's house... Before that, he got to play with some of the devs, so that was neat.

Other than that, I'm still playing Fiesta... The last MMO I played was Everquest, and this is starting to suck me in too.

[iammako3]

I gave my friend 3 choices of what I should play next on PS2, and he picked Wild Arms 5. . . so that's what I'm playing!

It's a fun game, for sure! I love the Wild Arms series. ^_^

[littlefuzzy1]

What were the other two? ^_^

[Andy]

I just want to play the L4D2 demo. Why are you doing this to me, Valve?

;_;
