That's the problem, I already spent the first one on Wipeout HD. So I have to make a choice between the two.
inFamous is probably a better deal since it's like a full retail game.
Super Stardust is still fun as hell, though.

inFamous it is then.
Grabbed that and did the first level on gr1m difficulty with a friend. That game's somewhat unforgiving for someone who is not very good at videogames, though I'll probably be able to get by. If you want to run co-op I'd be down for that.Seibei4211 wrote:

I just spent 40 minutes fighting that one super secret super badass hidden side boss in Persona 4 (not the reaper, the good one) and now I feel like a boss.Ivalset wrote:
Ridiculous that I spent 1:11:36 just getting it. I can't even fathom playing this game for that long in one sitting, but apparently it happened.
btw inFamous is a fairly decent third person shooter. Strictly speaking money-wise, you're best off going for inFamous ($30) and buying Super Stardust HD ($15) if you're that torn
Crap every time I try to update Super Stardust my ps3 just restarts. Wtfffffff.

I finished my Good playthrough of inFamous 2 today. This game pretty much has most of the problems that the old one had, then also got rid of some of the good things from the first one to make the second game a little worse. There are some nice things that they added, like Ice Launch (!), but overall it kinda felt like a giant DLC pack that gave me new powers, a new location, and extra bullshit.
There's always prototype 2
Topic Starter
Yeah, but so far that's looking to be the exact same case. Not to mention Prototype was more frustrating than inFamous ever was. Especially that fucking giant Mother boss or whatever on Hard mode. I might end up getting it anyway because dicking around in that game is a lot more fun than in inFamous. But I probably won't be getting another inFamous game if they make one.
Dead Nation is rather fun, I must say
Topic Starter
Yeah, I've only played the first level so far because I wanna wait for my friend to get back and do an unspoiled playthrough in co-op. But that first level was pretty fun.
Anybody mind using their shiny playstation plus account to download a copy of sonic 2 (it's free for PSPlus) and boost me the multiplayer trophy? It feels like a sin for me to not have 100% in this game. Should only take like half an hour tops, I think.
Topic Starter
Sure thing, bud. Oh wait, that means I'd have to activate Chiaki's PS+ thing. I was gonna wait for Seibei's subscription to almost expire, then activate Chiaki's and keep it on for another month. It probably wouldn't kill me to just activate it tomorrow though. I wanna try some more game trials anyway. (Nevermind, I am stupid. That only applies to game trials.)
So anyway, I've been playing Red Faction: Guerrilla lately. Man, that game is balls if you actually do the story missions and stuff, but destroying shit is fuuuun every single time (once the area's liberated, that is). Also, oh my God, I was driving my car around, then it suddenly turned into Christine or something and started wildly accelerating all by itself and wouldn't brake. So I bailed out of the car and it kept going for a while until it got stuck on a rail or something. So I had to kill it with a rocket launcher so it wouldn't get free and start killing everybody.

Was that Christine thing a Stephen King reference because you lost me halfway through
Topic Starter
Well, it was, yeah. I'm just saying the car suddenly had a mind of its own and it had some major bloodlust. It's for situations like these that make me think every open-world game should be required to have a video capture feature like in Just Cause 2.

So awp and/or Rolled, not to troll or anything, but are there any fun songs on the Rock Band 3 disc? I've probably played maybe 20 of the songs or so and I haven't come across a song that's made me want to go back and play it in Quick Play. It's mostly been either repetitive stuff, power chord crap, or solo stream stuff. Are there any Reptilia/My Name Is Jonas/Helicopter songs on there? Like Whip It was pretty fun, just really repetitive. Space Oddity wasn't bad either.
There's Bohemian Rhapsody. I kinda dig the sound of The Beautiful People, but it is not a fun song to play. Whip It's on my shitlist; it's a horrible song for drums. There's a song by Elton John that caught me by surprise by being really fun. Most of the songs on the RB3 disc are passable but lacklustre. All the real good shit's in the DLC.
Topic Starter
Oh, yeah, well I was talking specifically about Guitar, because I don't even do Drums anyway. So when do you wanna boost the Sonic stuff anyway? I've had it installed and I've just been waiting for you to get on.
Whenever you and I both got time. I normally get home around this time after work. I'll start popping on PSN then.
Also good that you got it when you did, apparently it's not free on PSNP as of like, yesterday?
btw the rest of the trophies for that game are very easy to get. If you're awesome at the game, it'll take maybe 2 hours. Otherwise, 3 or 4 hours

The biggest surprise I've had so far is just how fucking hilarious this game is. "This stew smells like I pissed on a campfire." And Grimwoire Weiss is always make awesome jokes. I didn't know RPGs were allowed to be this funny. I wish I could read the comments that appear on your profile while you're playing the game though. Those are pretty great, too.

They're srpgs though; those don't count at all.

ZHP is a dungeon crawler. I'd say SRPGs are closer than Dungeon crawlers, myself. Granted, they're all in the same boat. Turn-based, not turn-based, whatever. Party size 1, party size 10, whatever. Movement field, no movement field, whatever. The more distinctions you make the harder it is to draw the line, until we can no longer say for sure whether or not Grandia falls into the SRPG bucket because it has AOEs and movement and the like.

I just spent, like, 70 out of the last 120 hours playing Nier, but I finally got that damn Plat. All for the sake of getting my $16 back by beating it within a week. I think I'm clinically insane.
Topic Starter
Shadows of the Damned is pretty fucking awesome, guys. Like it really, really is. The weapons are pretty sweet and each one has its uses. Like, you don't just go through the game using just one gun. I find myself switching it up pretty frequently. And the bosses are those "expose the weakpoint" type bosses like in Zelda, and I love that. There's even a few 2D shooter sections for literally no reason. Like the characters mention it, but they don't question it.
Anyway, that being said, don't spend $60 on it. You can beat this game in a day, two days tops. There is no New Game+. There is no Chapter Select. It still beats inFamous 2 though.

There's also a very satisfying sound whenever you send a charged rifle shot through a horde of zombies.

have fun with the last level. It's nothing but open spaces and very large hordes of zombies. Shocker 4 lyfe
one of the levels, like 7 or 8 or something (before the highway) pulls some real bullshit on you and you have to zerg rush like 5 Mouths that are behind destructable walls. That should be a cakewalk with multiplayer but it's a dick move in SP.

Well, you don't have to post your game list or even your PSN ID. It's just, you know, if you want to. Although it's always interesting to see what games other people have.
Anyway, so I was totally gonna get Eternal Sonata, but now that I actually wanna get it, my Gamestop stopped having it. So I got stuck with Red Dead Redemption, which, by the way, hasn't been as good as I was expecting so far.

In all honesty, Eternal Sonata is not that great. The combat system is reasonably fun, but the game is otherwise just so plain. Dungeon, Boss, Rinse, Repeat. You just do the same thing over and over again but with a different scenario each time.
Topic Starter
There aren't a lot of games coming out right now (that I feel like spending $60 on), so I'm going through a bunch of games that I feel will probably be lame, but possibly fun. I'm somtimes surprised at what turns out to be fun for me. Also, I kinda feel the need for some more RPG. I thought the Dungeon Siege III demo was enjoyable, but it's at $60, so screw it. RPGs don't really have to be fun and exciting for me to play them a lot, as we can plainly see with my FFXIII Plat.
Have you played the Disgaea series at all? Because that's a great way to kill about 400 hours (if you're a completionist but only play each game once). All 3 Disgaeas are good, though I'd go for the PSP version of Disgaea 1 and 2 if you have the choice.
Just played the Sonic Generations demo. A lot of fun for a 2 minute demo (if you're a slowpoke like I am). Makes me wonder how such a short demo had such a large (660MB) file size. Pretty much worth it for the Green Hill tune though.
That game looks promising; more so than Sonic 4.

I don't even have a PSP. And again, I'm not big on tactical RPGs. I mostly like action RPGs and stuff, like Star Ocean, Tales, Resonance of Fate, and Kingdom Hearts (if that counts). That's kinda why I was looking at Eternal Sonata. Also, 400 hours is overkill. Like, it would have to be my favorite game ever for me to do that.
Since Red Dead Redemption is so boring, and I mean so fucking boring, I might return it and just spring for Dungeon Siege III or something. But seriously, about RDR, for such a highly reviewed game that everyone seems to like, I wanna like it, but I just don't get it. I like the massive gunfights, but one every four hours isn't fast-paced enough for me. So yeah, it's probably a good game, but I can't stand it.

Eternal Sonata was only an impulse purchase due to how the graphics looked (first of its kind on the western PS market anyhow) but besides the initial couple of hours playing it, not too much else is done with it besides collecting dust.
The only tactical RPG(s) I have thoroughly enjoyed would have to be Disgaea 2: Dark Hero Days (prefer it still above the first and third) and Final Fantasy VIII.
Anyone remember how hyped up Kane & Lynch was and look what happened in the end there.
For me a big thing is replayability, was it actually worth the $100-110?
This from an Australian game price, go figure the reason I resorted to importing so many of my games.
Of course, if I actually enjoy the game on the first run is another big issue.
Oh how I miss the days of games being released as complete packages and not requiring you to either patch up what shouldn't have needed it or having to buy parts of the game which should have been standard.
As a side note, anyone else getting a Playstation Vita? (Shit name, should've just been left as NGP which sounded better)

I liked RDR. I really like the engine it's on, so yeah.
Topic Starter
Yeah, I found a way to take away the only fun I was having in the game. Going out into the wilderness and hunting animals is kind of fun every now and then, but I only did that to slowly make money. Then I found out you can do this one mini-game over and over again and get ridiculous amounts of cash really fast. And the mini-game is just pressing a button combination really fast and the combination never changes. The only thing I like about RDR so far is the main character. He's just a cool dude.
But anyway, yeah, I only got RDR cause I got it for $27 and I have the opportunity to get my money back if it sucks, which I will do. Oh, and I probably won't get a Vita unless they come out with something fantastic. So far the only good games for it are spin-offs of console games, which is basically what the PSP did a lot.

400 hours is for completionists on each game, btw
Disgaea 1 you can do in 40 hours, but might take 80 if you need to learn the system and figure out how to optimize character building. That's really what the Disgaea series is all about; building your character's stats. Unlike other games such as FFT/Tactics Ogre which try to throw in tricky terrain and weather conditions, Disgaea's main game is "make characters super strong, then obliterate everything". There isn't really a focus on strategy until you hit the land of carnage or dark world (the dark world is interesting because it turns some levels into a puzzle game instead of an SRPG)
I was reluctant to get into SRPGs because I wasn't big on FFT but I sure was glad I gave it a try. Best RPG franchise ever.

So I finally did a co-op playthrough last night. We almost got fucked in the graveyard in level 7 because we didn't realize for about 5 minutes that we had to kill the four Mouths. Even after we did, it wasn't until, like, level 9 that we finally realized what Mouths even did. Jeez...
I think from now on everyone who makes a comment about a game should specify what game they're talking about. This thread has been difficult to follow for a very long time.
Talking about Dead Nation. Yeah the last checkpoint in the Graveyard is kind of a bitch, unless you have flares and shotguns. Throw a flare and shotgun the walls then shotgun the mouths. Then switch to SMG, mow everything down, rinse and repeat. Or, if you have the Launcher, blow the fuck out of the walls.
Or, if you're on multiplayer, have one person crowd control while the other deals with the mouths. Since multiplayer isn't any harder than single player. It's literally just two people in a single player game.

It was easy once we realized what we were supposed to do. By the time we figured it out, we had wasted all of our good ammo and just about every single throwable item. Then my buddy died after we killed the last mouth and I had to do the rest myself. By the way, I hate it when Jumpers come out of the sky and don't even give you a chance to dodge.
Yeah, the later levels throw quite the amount of dick moves at you.
Anyway, beat the game with my friend the other day, I died in the middle of the last section and my friend just mowed down everything while I watched. Also, the Shocker is way OP.

1400?! I didn't know people were that good, the most my friend and I got to was 300 or maybe a tad higher. Course, we kinda sucked, but still, we thought 300 was high when we were playing.
Topic Starter
The most I got was high 600s. Then one or both of us would catch ourselves on fire, usually because of a bad Rush, flamethrower, or Molotov (or rather, moe-low-tove), and send it down to 1. It's ridiculous how much that drains your multiplier.

I'm still stuck on a level in the Dark world in Disgaea 2. It's one of them where there's a single enemy prinny in a disconnected area of land, and you have no-pickup/throw + no special + no attack geopanels everywhere.
Makes me sad; especially since the dark sun has an insta-game over on like the 7th turn (which isn't really that bad, but still)
So far I've spent about 100 hours on Dark Hero Days (lv2000thief (YEAAAAAAAAH)), and I spent a couple of hundred hours on Disgaea DS. I want to get around to finishing the PSP version, if only for the dialogue/voice acting.
I've got Disgaea 3 but haven't had much opportunity to play it, as I don't currently have a PS3. Oh irony.
Play on Normal or Braindead, and max your rifle out asap. It's very easy. The highest combo I ever had was 7 or 8 thousand. But the hits you take to your multiplier are percentage based, so the higher your combo, the more you lose. A simple weak-zombie scratch starts taking off like 200x
I'm rushing through the game on Normal for kicks (playing the game just for the hell of it, rather than trying to get all loot, or no damage, or whatever) is so much fun. I'd say the achievements actually ruin the experience if you have the need to collect them (I do) but fortunately that's only 1 or 2 slow-paced runs through the game. Just not giving a fuck what happens makes the game WAY more fun.
After maxing the rifle, I'd work on the machine gun and the shotgun at a ratio of 2:1. Once those are upgraded to the max (give or take clip and max ammo - level those up, but don't bother with the last couple upgrades until down the road) start saving your money for the Shocker. The Shocker is shit for special infected, but is unrivalled at taking out all manner of zombie (weak, fat, military...the works). You can take out a crowd of 40 military infected in about four seconds with the shocker. With the rifle, that's 320 bullets. That's like 2 or 3 minutes of shooting. The shocker just tears them in half.

Man, I thought RDR was super boring and I hated the game, right? I just finished a playthrough of Dungeon Siege III and I thought that was super boring, too. But for some reason, I totally loved DS3. It doesn't make any sense.
So any of you guys played the Uncharted 3 beta?
Honestly, something just felt off about the whole thing to me. The climbing felt buggy, the combat felt slow, and fist cuffs never worked. I remember played Uncharted 2 multi and thought it was a blast, but the beta just wasn't.

I'm leaving it up to a full-game trial if the Playstation Network and my Playstation Plus membership allow it before I make my full purchase...
I've had too many games which were supposed to just be 'beta' but turned out to be exactly the same in full release.state, which pisses me off greatly considering there have been too many games I've had some amount of hope for with the premise of being something fun only to complete back-flip and turn out to be horrible.
A nice example of this would have to be Haze.

Dungeon Siege is a Kill-Shit-Get-Loot game, in the vein of Champions of Norrath, Diablo, and Torchlight. Those games are dreadful to watch, monotonous in their description, and lackluster in their presentation. But where they get you is in the sharp gameplay. Those games are designed to be addicting, and the opportunity for reward is constantly present.Seibei4211 wrote:
I just finished a playthrough of Dungeon Siege III and I thought that was super boring, too. But for some reason, I totally loved DS3. It doesn't make any sense.
I love KSGL games

Yeah, but this game is even pretty weak from a KSGL standpoint. Like, you get loot a lot, but most of it is crap and it's not fun sifting through the crap and selling it back. And then like, there's not a lot of oh-my-God-totally-awesome stuff cause it's all designed to be in tiers and stuff so the stats are equal, but put into different categories and stuff. Like minus 10 attack, plus 10 will. And even when you think you're super buffed up and shit, there's not a lot of difference, except with obvious changes like your health and crit percentage. It's hard for me to play that game for more than an hour or two at a time since you have to spend so much time looking at stats and seeing if anything's better and stuff.
And yet, despite all of that, I still love it. It's just a fucking conundrum.

Do you guys want to know the true definition of insanity? It's the state of mind you're in after playing the second-to-last level of Joe Danger 297 times without beating it. This game is awesome, but holy shit, everyone involved with this game needs to be shot for making it so hard to get 100%
Update: I am the fucking Chosen One. Joe Danger 100%. I kinda wish I had done it on my main account though. Would've been nice. Oh well.

This is the reason why I have my PS3 automatically log in to my main (Australian) account at all times, since there's nothing worse than a 100% completion occurring on anything bar your main account unless you want to do all the hard work yet again.Seibei4211 wrote:

But then that'd just make you out to be a masochist especially on some of the harder/longer games to platinum trophy get.

No, I specifically chose to play Joe Danger on my alt account because that's what it's for. I knew Joe Danger would be hard, so I didn't want to force myself to get 100% if I didn't want to. I had no way of knowing that I would get so determined to get 100% in that game. I've actually got 2 plats on an account that's not supposed to have any. And I've almost got a 3rd as well. It's like, it's still my account, and I still got the trophy, so that's good enough for me.

Yeah, that is pretty impressive. Although I do have the Lost Planet 2 Platinum, which is, without a doubt, impossible to get anymore.
Started playing Prototype again. That game is fun.

Unless you're trying to get the Plat. Then it's infuriating. I hecka liked going into military bases and stealth killing everyone I possibly could. Like, they are the worst soldiers ever.
Anyway, I sure am glad I was able to get Wipeout HD as well, cause that game is pretty fun. I'm not much of a racing game guy, but I like this one. At least I like it more than I liked Super Stardust HD.

I found the plat easy, but hated getting the sphere things. Unless you're marking them from the getgo, you're stuck with one left and a lot of frustration.
Topic Starter
I liked getting the collectibles, but Platting the events was annoying and doing the game on Hard was just lame at times.
Final boss on Hard. I remember that being a nightmare. Difficult + timed.
Topic Starter
Yeah, he sucked dick. Like he was hard enough just by himself, but then you get that strict time limit and it's ridiculous. And if you accidentally blew up the helicopters in the first half of the fight, you weren't gonna get him on your first try at all. Also, that Elizabeth fight was so stupid. It took a stupid long time to kill her and you had to fight off an endless supply of hunters.
You jerks talking shit about Eternal Sonata need to back off, okay. Such a good battle system; it more than made up for the mediocrity of the storyline.
Also the optional dungeon was fun. And Claves owns. Look, just fuck you guys okay.

Wow. I'm so glad I was able to get Wipeout HD in addition to Super Stardust HD, because I would've made the completely wrong decision if I had just gotten Stardust. I spent more time and had more fun with Wipeout than I usually have with most of the $60 games I get.
But anyway, I saw this thing for Nightmare House 2, which is a mod using Half-Life 2: Episode 2. I really wanted to play that, so I just bought the Orange Box for Steam. This way I can finally play the first Portal as well. And I guess, if I wanted to, I could play Half-Life 2 or something.
Also, I tried that Elton John song in Rock Band 3, awp, and holy shit, that got pretty ridiculous about 15 seconds into it.

Wipeout HD was one of the titles I was eagerly awaiting for release on the PSN the moment I found out it wouldn't be a disc-based release which was a let-down due to not having a way to get items off the store back then but nonetheless it was well worth the wait I had to endure.
It's also one of the only games I actually enjoy using the Sixaxis controls to go through in, even in the Phantom class races.
Needless to say Wipeout has always been one of my favourite Playstation titles, namely due to Wipeout 2097 being my first Playstation game but of course this is a non biased opinion on the product.
Cannot wait to see what Wipeout 2048 on the Vita will handle like, seems promising on the amount of extra ships and (thus far) listed tracks as a few seem to be renditions of older tracks.
Super Stardust HD was boring as heck, felt I wasted my money on it but I also got Dead Nation (fairly fun) at the time for free due to PS+ subscription.
I still enjoy all the PSOne titles even today, especially Crash Bandicoot.

Am I the only one here who really enjoyed Stardust? I even got the DLC for it (which seemed like a rip off since Wipeout got it's DLC with it when you got it free) and I find it so fun trying to avoid all the crap that gets thrown at you.
Although, Dead Nation was amazing to play with a friend (Something Stardust couldn't do) and added help for the more challenging parts.

I have not done this yet. Anyone feel like blasting through Normal some time? I've played all five difficulties and found Normal to be the most entertaining.rust45 wrote:

Oh the joys or the original 60GB PS3 and many Playstation Network downloads...
Just beat inFamous 2 (shortly after the first one) and I have to say it was pretty enjoyable. The only problem I have is that some of the powers aren't as sweet as the powers in the first one. Chain lightning anyone?
Oh yeah, did anyone else notice that Cole's feet kinda look like cow feet? There's an odd indent at the tip of his shoe's.

So for the first time ever, I actually have been playing Half-Life 2 on Steam. I always thought it'd suck because the first one really sucked, but this game is surprisingly fun despite being 7 years old. I mean, I don't think I need to tell anyone that it's a good game, but it's just that I've finally been convinced of that. I still think it's a little bit overhyped, but whatever. It was probably the shit when it first came out.
Every time I get a new machine I play through Half Life 2. It was amazing for its time, and it's still great for the present. Largely because it isn't a cover-based shooter.
Topic Starter
I like it because it's quite varied for an FPS. It's not just room after room of enemies and crap. Like there's some physics-based puzzle shit and that's cool. But like, you've got that whole section with the riverboat and that was really fun, then you've got that sort of zombie level, and now I'm doing the dune buggy level and that's been pretty fun, especially when you have to shoot down the gunships. I kinda wish there was more suit power around, but whatever, no biggie. I think this game would probably suck a lot more on the console. Like, I love consoles, but I don't know how I could do this game on one. Just makes it easier to shoot guys from farther away, which is really good since I can't zoom and shoot.
Have fun with the crane (in the buggy section)
veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeepow
The bridge part is really neat too. It always gives my stomach a sick feeling. Like vertigo, or something.

Yeah, I already did the crane part. Or at least the crane part where you lower the bride and pull your car up. I kinda hated how the magnet swung around whenever you moved it, so you'd usually have to wait for it to stop swinging if you needed to be precise. But whatever. I'm at the part just after picking up the crossbow and I took down the energy wall there. Also, I've been doing the achievements in this game for kicks and there's one for destroying 6 gunships, and I've taken down 2, the one at New Little Odessa and the one along the highway, but the game decided to only credit me for one of those kills. Lame.
Try the crane part in Synergy. Goooooooood times.
Also I don't want to spoil it (and nobody else will either) but the last part of the game is also a ton of fun. It pretty much takes what you've been wanting to do the whole game (in my case) and lets you do it.

You were right about that bridge part, awp. There were a couple of parts where I had to kind of drop a little ways onto a catwalk and it was like, "OH GEEZ." That was a cool little section.

God damn, guys. Half-Life 2 has some of the best music I've ever heard in a video game. That ending credits song really did it for me.

I finally beat the Half-Life 2 series, so I went down and got Eternal Sonata. I have to agree with Ival, this game is pretty sweet so far. The English voice acting is a little bit terrible, but the combat is really sweet.
So yeah. I have a PS3 now, kinda. I guess I'll play through Disgaea3, now that I have the opportunity.
The combat only gets better, so you're in for a real treat.Seibei4211 wrote:

Yeah, I wanna unlock counterattacks and the second set of special attacks. I'm not gonna be happy about my infinite tactical time going away though. And losing a second on my action gauge is gonna suck.

The multiplayer games that I have that I can remember at the moment are:
Call of Duty MW1+2+Black ops, Borderlands+all DLC, Bioshock 2, Rainbow 6 Vegas 2
Blazblue Continuum shift, Tekken 6
Little big planet, Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2,
Gran Turismo 5, Dead Nation,
If I have more, I probably let a friend borrow it/them. The rest are single player games.

Damn, it seems like you're putting a lot of hours into Eternal Sonata, Selphie. I demand a status update, because I think just seeing you playing it on my list is going to make me find my disc and finish Encore Mode.
