Got the FFXIII Plat. Only took 113 fucking hours, which is kind of a funny coincidence. So done with that game. So fucking done.
was the game actually good? I hear mixed opinions.
Topic Starter
tl;dr -> Graphically and technically, yeah, sure. It's not really fun though.
Battle system was pretty much working as it should and there weren't any glitches to mention. But the game itself is just, you know, pretty boring. Not a lot of fun. The only good feelings you really get from the game are from when you fight a boss, but you die a few times, then you go and whoop its ass. Doesn't happen often though, and you don't really get that same feeling of conquest when you beat the guy in one try
Most of the game is pretty padded, which is to say chapters 1-10 and 12 didn't need to exist and were terribly boring and the only reason they were there was so the game would have an excuse to shove dozens of cutscenes down your throat. And the story-telling, while better than FFXII, didn't quite perform well in a few aspects. After most cutscenes, your datalog will be updated and it'll have a little recap of what you just saw in the cutscene, and the datalog is much better at describing what just happened than the cutscene did.

But that doesn't really count. That's like calling Philip J. Fry 1,000+ years old.
Seibei, I heard you liked some Disgaea. You know, Flonne. cough

What? I've never played any Disgaea.

Man, Just Cause 2 sure was worth the $60. Just broke 100 hours of gameplay and I just finally finished getting 100% in every settlement. Finally started working on the story missions.
Got Prince of Persia and Burst Limit today
yay cheap games
I haven't played PoP but it seemed alright. Worth 9 dollars, at the very least. Been having lots of fun with DBZ though

I liked the paradigms and pseudo-turn-based combat in FFXIII, but the main problem for me was that enemies were too 1 dimensional. It's like they created a boss skill set and then copy and pasted it with minor tweaks. Bosses also had entirely too much hp in general and, in my opinion, their art designs were boring.
I also didn't like how they literally push you through the game up until gran pulse, where they put you the middle of this giant place with little instruction. I feel as though gran pulse and the mark system would have been acceptable as a break from the story (which really should last at least twice as long as it did), instead of being the actual post-game content. I mean, wtf is the point of getting items from marks? Using them on other marks? The hardest story boss is trivial just by equipping death resist items that you can buy from the shop for little money.
game is pretty and had the potential to be great, but it's shallow and probably was just released to cash in on the final fantasy name

Just beat FFXIII yesterday, took me that long cause I was away for three weeks. The story wasn't outstanding until they turned to Cie'th, I thought I got the bad ending, but they HAD to come back and ruin this twist. Playing the rest of the game with only Vanille and Fang would be quite interesting. As for the battle system, it is not bad by itself, but the "dungeons" were not that good, wish there were more of the tower. The art/design was not boring, but we have already seen it in the paste ~5 FF games
Death Resist? does that really help?

Cherub Crown thing kinda does help, especially if you suck and take forever to beat the guy. I think the story started going downhill after they started using the phrase "fal'Cie smoke and mirrors." Makes me wonder how much of the game was actually "fal'Cie smoke and mirrors."

Thank goodness I chose God of War 3 over this.

BlazBlue arrived a couple days ago.
Gonna have to spend some more time with it to get the hang of some of the characters (Carl, Litchi, Tager), but this is definitely my kind of fighting game.
If only my connection to the internet weren't a piece of shit...

Got Super Street Fighter few days ago, liked Ibuki's play style, but I am still not that good with her. Most of the old characters got nerfed.

Lost Planet 2 day! Finally, a game to play after this month-long drought.
Topic Starter
Less than 10 days until some Alpha Protocol goodness. And Lost Planet 2 is pretty cool, but I thought I'd have at least 3 friends getting this game, but so far none of them have been able to get it, so I haven't had any consistent partners.
Isn't Alpha Protocol an old game? I coulda sworn I played it at my brother's house.
Got Katamari 5 today. Love me some Katamari.

No? At least not this one. Some nice 3rd person shooter, RPG action. Booya!awp wrote:

yeah this isn't what I was thinking of by the looks of it. I recall something of a Super Metroid-esque game on the 360.
Whatever. I'm diggin' some of the Katamari Forever remixes.

Yeah, I hecka liked Sayonara Rolling Star, but then I listened to the original and that one was a bit better. I didn't like the remixes they did to my previous favorite song, Everlasting Love.

I know this post was from a month ago, awp, but...
Anyway, I finally got my PS3 here. Going to get ModNation Racers soon. I'll post my PSN later. I kinda... forgot it. Yeeeah.

So Alpha Protocol was pretty much disappointing. It's ok. Not a lot of new stuff going on with PS3 right now.
I actually finally finished Arkham Asylum.
...Well that was disappointing.

Arkham was? Really? I thought it was pretty good, except for the "bosses." They sucked.
Fighting isn't actually very fun for me since you can pretty much get by with mashing square a whole lot while jumping over heads and occasionally hitting triangle and then doing a combo takedown whenever you can.
The titan bosses are just shit and they keep bloody appearing.
The Joker was a disappointing end fight.
Ivy's titan plants are just randomly strewn about the place when they appear and while kind of fun to avoid, are just boring to fight.
Ivy's fight just felt badly designed when they add in goons that are pretty much only there to get in your way.
Ivy's ass takes twice as long to load as the rest of her making the loading sequences take longer than they really should every time you die.
Actually most boss fights were pretty shit except for Harley and Killer Croc.
The Riddler's things were fun but some were just too easy.
Knife enemies are just there to make you hit circle occasionally.
The parts with Scarecrow were pretty unwowing especially after everyone hyped them up so much and his battles were the same thing every time. The only good Scarecrow sequence is the part in the hallway.
It would have been nice to have some enemy variation that was something other than "goon with x". The only thing that comes to mind are the insane inmates.
One of the game over voice clips sounds lower quality than the others which just serves to tick me off even more every time I die.
On the plus side, stealth parts are great.
Disarming bombs is kind of tense.

Killer Croc kinda sucked, too. Pop up, batarang, walk, pop up, batarang, walk, etc. Scarecrow's parts were only lame cause you read the hype and skewed your expectations of it. That part in the morgue was pretty cool, too.
Yeah Croc's section went a little too long.Seibei4211 wrote:

It's not like I read the hype, I literally couldn't avoid the hype.
Topic Starter
Yeah, he was pretty hyped. I didn't get a chance to read most of the hype since I got the game on day 0 and could get to the part before people blew it out of proportion. It was cool, but not game-changing, groundbreaking cool.
Finally decided to connect my Pee Es Tree to the internets. Sadly, I still don't have a single online game(Don't ask me why I don't even have LBP yet, I'm saddened by it).
Playing through Star Ocean: The Last Hope right now. Don't like Welch as much as I did in SO3, but she's pretty much the only thing that's got me laughing. Or is that because the Japanese voice is pretty lulzy? Meh. Anyway, account is RLLink. Add me if you want.
