What Did You Accomplish In Gaming Today? Vol. 2
  • I loved NBA jam.
  • and NFL blitz
  • I haven't touched wither my xbox or 3DS for more than 5 mins at a time. Haven't had an urge to play anything

    Thats how i feel now after my trip and nice weather.
  • I bought Fable Heroes today. With the help of my sisters I beat it, it`s nice and short and very enjoyable.
  • Played a little bit of UT2004 and some PS2 the past couple of days. Not really in the mood for gaming lately.
  • Been playing some more Demon's Souls, and fuck this game is lot more harder than Dark Souls.
  • So I have been playing Tera...you all knew that. I arrived in a new province tonight and decided to take a quick screenshot of the sun in the game as its quite possibly the coolest sun I have ever seen...I managed to match my staff up to it creating a really cool picture. The game is fuckin gorgeous for an MMO. Let me know what you think,

  • I didn't know that.
  • I didn't know that.



    Oh? I posted a picture of it and Mortal Kombat a few days ago...you even replied to me. I said there all I would be playing until Diablo 3 and Max Payne 3.
  • I just hit level 50 in TOR. I still need to finish the storyline for that character but I feel like running around on a different class for a few minutes.
  • Oh right. lolz
    Forgot about that picture. Only one more week until Max Payne 3! =D
  • I realized how ridiculously stupid Dead Space is... It's fun, sure, but whoever decided to make a "survival horror" game where they supply you with tons of ammo and huge, powerful guns is a jackass. It kinda defeats the whole purpose.. It's laughable.
  • wait a week till max payne comes out?!?! i saw it at an eb the other day...they were selling it...
  • yet you didn't buy?

    What difficulty are you playing on? The harder difficulties, particularly the hardest, has far fewer ammo drops. I got really good at Meleeing to conserve ammo and Stasis was my lifeline.
  • Finally beat Dark Souls. Amazing game,
    Spoiler:
    I chose the Dark Lord ending by accident but it was a pretty sick cutscene


    Any word on the possibility of DLC for this game? There was some rumors flying about DLC in Janurary but nothing else since?

    @GaussianMist how are the graphics in comparison to Demon Souls?

  • @AnThMaN They just announced the PC version is coming and it will include a new content that was not on console. They haven't announced it yet, but I suspect that console will be getting this content in the form of a DLC eventually.

    As for Demon's Souls, the graphics aren't as good but still look pretty decent. If you liked Dark Souls, I suggest checking out Demon's Souls. It playes nearly the same.
  • I will go out on a limb and say that the console versions will NOT be getting the DLC...when the game originally came out, they told the public there would be no DLC for it. This means the game would have been designed and built without DLC in mind, not something that you can simply "patch" after release.

    The PC version (which was also never planned, until fans asked for it) NEEDS new content for people to double dip. Its as simple as that.

    I always play on Normal the first time.
  • I only like the atmosphere. Not sure about the story. I can't say I ever feel threatened when I have a gun that fires huge energy blasts that cuts shit in a million pieces with one shot. lolz

    Okay. Once you unlock the hardest difficulty (I forget it's name), give that a whirl. There's lots of ammo drops on Normal. On the hardest difficulty, you'll certainly feel threatened as you won't have lots of ammo or the Credits to buy more.
  • the new splinter cell (well the new-est)
    its pretty fun so far, I'm dying alot I'm not the best at stealth.

    also planning on playing through new vegas again with mods and now I have all the dlc and I havent tried any (fuck yeah $2 steam sale)
  • ^you'll be fine, it's the least stealthiest SC out of them all. Just point at enemy(ies), then press Y and they all die. But man was it fun to interrogate every dude in Chaos Theory... good times.

    Oh yea, I pre-ordered BLACK OPS II and got a sweet zombies mode teaser poster

  • Finished Become a Legend mode in The Bigs 2. Afterwards, i simulated a season (to play the Power Derby,) and played some Home Run Pinball.

    I also tried out some of the PlayStation brand's upcoming titles today, which I plan to write previews for.

    Game of Thrones has me quite excited for May 15. Its screenshots don't do it justice (in terms of detail/colour/lighting.) It's not a visual spectacle, but seems well-made and authentic.
  • Played some more Mass Effect 3.
    Spoiler:
    Finished the Prothean squad member mission and a really cool mission wiht Grunt involving the rachni]
  • Grunt one is my second favorite.
  • I put together a short little video showcasing one of the coolest aspects of Tera...the BIG ASS MONSTER (aka, The BAM). There truly is nothing else like it in any other MMO.

    Yeah, I really liked Grunt.

    Spoiler:
    I actually thought he was going to die and I was super sad.

    Spoiler:
    I almost felt cheated when I saw that he survived to be honest. I mean... that was the most fitting and badass potential death scene I could have ever asked for. Then I saw him walk out and I was like "Oh you badass jackass! Getting me emotional just to come out covered with guts and with a huge grin on your face."

    Come on, that was awesome! I was so relieved!
  • @Nebelleron Why do you gotta always be a negative Nancy?
  • Ya I was glad too.

    Anyway, I played some more MK today. Got an acheivement for beating ladder without blocking , then I went online with Sonya and only lost one out of about 15 matches.

    Ive almost mastered her, I need 42 more X-Ray attacks. I also want to get the secret cahracters acheivements . I only have one so far.

    Very cool. The secret characters are fun to fight. You have the one for hidden Noob Saibot, correct? The next easiest to get is Smoke. Anytime you're in The Living Forest in Arcade Ladder, as soon as the fight starts press "Back" and if it's possible to fight Hidden Smoke you'll do so.

    Reptile is the same as in the original game, and Hidden Jade is a real pain to get to fight.
  • ill have to look up how to get them. I'll probably go for them later in the week. Tonight when I got home from boxing im going to play lord of the rings war in the north and try to beat it. I think im near the end.

    Cool. If you need any help figuring out how to get to the hidden fighters, _especially_ Jade as there's lots of misinformation about getting to her, let me know.
  • I'll defintely need help with that.
    Also i noticed for the first time that in the necropolis, the symbols around each character symbolize each of the things you need to complete to master them and when they are done the symbol lights up.

    Thought it was pretty cool.
  • I didn't even realize there were hidden characters. I guess it should have been obvious, but I just didn't think about it. I'll have to check this out.
  • Wrote two hands on previews: one for Sorcery and the other for Game of Thrones.

    Yup, in Arcade Ladder there are four hidden opponents based on the classic games:

    - Classic Jade (Dressed in her UMK3 costume). She's fought in Goro's Lair (though you get to challenge her when fighting in Shang Tsung's Throne Room), is immune to projectiles, and I believe uses Kitana's fan attacks just like in Mortal Kombat II.

    - Classic Smoke (Dressed in MK1 costume). He's fought in The Living Forest, has Scorpion's Spear and Teleport attack that leaves smoke instead of Flame, similar to his Mortal Kombat II appearance.

    - Classic Reptile (Dressed in MK1 costume). He's fought at the Bottom of the Pit (and accessed via the Pit, night). He has his Slide and I believe they also gave him Sub-Zero's Ice Ball and Scorpion's Spear like in Mortal Kombat, but I could be wrong. You get a huge amount of Koins for beating him.

    - Classic Noob Saibot (Dressed in MK1 costume). He's fought in the Cathedral, features most of his normal Shadow attacks, takes less damage and does a significant amount of damage per hit. I believe they based him more after his Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 appearance.
  • Too bad coins dont mean anything anymore now that I have all the krypt unlocked. Id rather turn them into respect points
  • Apparently I suck so bad at COD MW3 on PS3 that my brother kicked me off it. He said it was because he didn't like playing split screen. Meh.

    I hate PS3 contorllers. We played Search n Destroy and I went 0 every match lol. oH well.
  • PS3 controllers are crap. Blame that. Its not you its the stupid ps3
  • Not to be a fanboy but I always though the playstation controllers were the worst. I even prefer the brick that is the NES controller. I can't put my finger on it but I just cant get used to the PS gamepads now matter how much I try.
  • Fanboy!!!!!!!
    My favourite controller was the old Xbox Duke controller.
  • Pshhh!! Generational Fanboys!!! Atari 2600 joystick was the best. Although... the ColecoVision one with knob controller was quite something too. LOL
  • YOu just love having a stick and knob in your hands at all times.....
