What games are you currently playing?

State of Decay.
I got it in a Steam sale last weekend for about £3.77.
It's pretty good but I'm glad I got it on sale.

Also 7 Days to Die.... I'm on a zombie apocalypse binge right now.

Played 4 hours of FF12 last night, because I realized I can't remember what the hell that game is about other than, "SKY PIRATES. BALTHIER. FRAN!" Which is most certainly not the main plot, but that's the only thing that stuck with me through my first run of it ...

 

[Cthulhu]

Definitely isn't about Vaan, .

Well, he is the leading man...

They should have killed him off. Early in the story.

Re:Chain of Memories from KH HD

Feels shorter than it did on the GBA, Sora's voice is weird, H.J.O's trying to make it sound like young Sora but it just sounds like old Sora's straining to reach something all the time.

 

[Cthulhu]

Picked up Dead Rising 2 from a Steam sale. The graphics are horribly out of date (think PS2 style) and the gameplay is tedious (not smooth, pacing issues? idk), and the weapons wear out too quickly for my liking - but that might just be because I'm still at the start of it. IDK yet, lol. Needs moar violence.

Although punching zombies with a parasol stuffed in a leaf blower is pretty funny, .

edit: grr, time limits, what even. Don't put time limits for the main storyline in free roaming games with loads of sidequests, dammit

 

[Dawnbreaker]

I'm Minecraftin', biatches!

Also, I may have broke a window. Whoops.

If you wanna invite me to your server I'm "theheroshield" (try not to laugh xD).

Just started Tales of Xillia yesterday - I have to say, I'm pretty intrigued already. The dialogue so far has been fresh and witty, and the story is just starting to come to that point at which it titillates you enough to make you want to play more. The battle system is interesting, if a bit complicated, but I think I'm getting the hang out of (or at least, I feel that way until the introduce yet ANOTHER element to it). But that brings me to Xillia, Dissidia 012, Jeanne d'Arc, Oblivion, Pokemon X (still have to beat that gaaaaame), and probably a million other games I've started and have yet to complete. Whoops.

 

[Skan]

Now that I'm separated from my beloved PS2, I'm playing FF Tactics: War of the Roses.

It is.

So.

Slow.

I now remember why I'd abandoned it for Fire Emblem the last time I tried playing.

 

[Drax]

Zero Mission made me want to get back into the Metroid games again, so I went back and started Other M for real (only had 5 minutes of it back in 2011), knowing some of what I'm getting into.

Yes, the acting is weird, Samus probably could have been voiced by Jennifer Hale, the gun targets monsters automatically because the developers didn't know how else to marry the controls with the platforming, and activating the missiles is difficult when fighting in real-time (I'm getting used to it.)

It has its positives. The most important for me, being that the game is mostly 3rd person, and activating 1st person only for precision. The music in the cutscenes is really moving, which is a shame because from what I've heard of the OST, it only has boss battle music and didn't record any of the stuff that sounds like this: (1:26-2:30)

And finally, I could dig into Metroid mythology all day. I am quite pumped for this.

I thought I'd get stuck in spots according to reviews, but I think Zero Mission trained me well so it hasn't been that bad. Most of the time it turns out being an elevator puzzle, or finding a hole to morph ball into.

 

[Lex]

oo the game of life

No seriously though have any of you played From Dust? That game is a lot of fun and I'm enjoying playing through it again.

 

[Octo]

^I was shit at From Dust. The little guys kept dying because I always ended up drowning them or burning them with Lava. But it was very pretty.

 

[Lex]

I know those feels. I'm trying to get the trophies at the moment but I'm not doing very well. The game is actually quite difficult.

 

[X-SOLDIER]

I haven't thought about that game in a while. I think I got close to one of the final missions, and I can't remember if I ever finished it.

I'm playing a bit of Ultimate Ninja Storm Revolution currently, trying to get back in the swing of actually playing games again, because Shadow of Mordor comes out in a couple days, and then Alien: Isolation is the week after that, so.... I need to get my gamer self back. xD

[Cthulhu]

I bought Diablo 3's expasion Reaper of Souls the other day (it was on sale, still too expensive though), so I'll try and grind through that one again .

 

[Drax]

PS2 stick came in the mail, now I can play my PS2 fighting library properly

KOF '00 works well, currently playing Street Fighter 3rd Strike. After that I'll go to Capcom/SNK 2.

So, mainin' Dudley and all his cross-counters

 

[Keveh Kins]

South Park: Stick of Truth. I have never laughed so hard and cringed so much and thanked the various deities so frequently for my having headphones as I have playing this game.

Absolutely lost my shit laughing at some of the parts in

Spoiler

Canada, even the mild stuff like the guy in Winnipeg saying "You know what Winnipeg is famous for!?...We don't either"

 

[Blade]

Let's see, here's what I play:

--Gundam Breaker
--Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus R (off and on)
--Yu-Gi-Oh: Millenium Duels (this game is crazy fun if you don't bother getting DLC to unlock all the cards)
--BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma (off and on)
--Dead or Alive 5: Ultimate (off and on, but mostly for fanservice)

Here's what I plan on playing:

--Gundam Breaker 2 (December 18th, so hype for this)
--Guilty Gear Xrd (December 16th?, again SUPER HYPE for this... I'm getting the limited edition with the character book, so I can know even more random trivia about GG characters!)

 

[Drax]

Final Fantasy VI-- started over again! I'm getting really good at catching up since this is my 4th time

Final Fantasy V--tried to start over on my PS3, but they still won't fix the save freeze bug, so I'm on an old PS2 save. I'm just after the library of the ancients and don't know where to go. Everything seems to point to the nearby desert, but I can't move past the sands.

Dragon Quest VIII--I should be able to finish this game in my lifetime.

Kingdom Heart 1.5 HD ReMix, stupid Riku invincible sparring champion: I was 0-18 by the time I left the island.

 

[Ami]

About to play The Wolf Among Us for PS4. Been a good while since I finished it for PS3, so looking forward to getting in there and making different decisions this time. I can tell already that it runs really nice on the console just like The Walking Dead Seasons 1 and 2 PS4 versions.

 

[Sprites]

I just downloaded Secret of Mana last night and started it, I'm only a little bit into it but I'm enjoying it so far, I haven't ever played it before and know nothing about the story so I'm kinda excited to get into this game.

 

[RedFFWolf]

Started the HD Remaster of KH: Final Mix - It's cool to see the new stuff so far, but playing a level like Deep Jungle really reminds how little direction you're given at times - I'm glad things are a lot more fleshed out in the 2nd game (can't wait for that HD release)

 

[Roger]

I've started EVE Online. Like their needlessly elaborate character creation, given that you only see at a small mugshot in a corner.

Yeah that's one of the more ridiculous aspects of it. ProTip, don't enable walking around in stations either, it's a needlessly long load and you get nothing in return . Definitely a huge load of mostly wasted effort (although I think they reused some of that stuff in Dust 512 or whatever).

Also, what's your username, I can give you money and make you my slave employee, .
