What have you been playing today REDUX

[The Amazing Rando]

Yeah... like, for each donut is eight Rs or eight Cs with a fire or police in the center. so if the outer section would be

P

with the Ps are Park and the R is road... only three pieces needed down each side. It never gave me traffic issues if I did that.

I've been trying to solve this problem for 17 years. Time to go to work.

Playing Street Hoops again, and damn if that game isn't frustrating at first. You simply cannot win in the game if you don't purchase the And 1 guys, because later teams run you off the court. I was good enough to win enough money through betting to complete max out a CAP. I placed him at power forward and now we wreck shit on a regular basis.

This game while frustrating in the extreme was so much better than And 1 Streetball. Streetball looks a lot better but there's an over-reliance on dribble moves or break down your opponent. I want to be able to play a relatively regular game of basketball with the extras thrown in.

Someone mentioned Live '96... that remains my favorite basketball game of all time. I played the hell out of the Genesis version back in the day, and the massive roster of legends present and past was genius.

I finished NBA Live '96 last weekend. Went 73-9 with the Bulls (Detroit ended my 40 game winning streak late in the season), and then I swept my way through the playoffs.

Battleship.

I love Salvo with Super Weapons.

 

[KingPK]

Finished Driver:SF. Fantastic game which probably saved the franchise from irrelevancy. It also has one of the greatest final boss battles I've ever played.

Spoiler

Not many games can have you battle the final guy by mentally hurling traffic at each other and not only make it make sense in the story, but have it be a blast to play as well

I've also dallied a bit in multiplayer, which is pretty good itself.

Started Assassin's Creed: Revelations today. Having mixed feelings about this one; they kept the good parts of Brotherhood, but the story isn't grabbing me and the new additions to the gameplay aren't great; adding a tower defense minigame and first-person platforming sections seem like really odd choices.

 

[bps21]

I 1000/1000'd Skyrim and will be moving on to Saints Row 3 while slipping a little Halo in since I never actually beat the first one.

1 playthrough?

 

[bps21]

Of Skyrim? Yeah. Everything except the Daedric artifact one can be done without worry of missing them. I found that out about halfway through and stopped doing everything else until I got to 15 artifacts. Those were actually probably my favorite quests in the game too.

 

[TheSSNintendo]

Been playing some Sonic Generations.

 

[KingPK]

I'm playing Revelations just like I played Brotherhood and am having the same success. Bomb crafting is nice, but you still can get out of most situations by just calling for your assassins. There are some impressive visuals in this game, at least. The tower defense minigame can go suck a dick.

Something about this phrase makes me snicker.

 

[AntiLeaf33]

After playing a lot of NHL 12 and Modern Warfare 3, I forgot that I had bought Resident Evil 4 and Code Veronica X a while back. Played a little Veronica X and just wasn't in the mood for that style of gameplay.Started playing RE4 and having a blast.

 

[KingPK]

Finished AC: Revelations. Kinda disappointed with it. The new mechanics aren't nearly as fun or game changing as Brotherhood's and the story really doesn't forward much. They need to just get on with Assassin's Creed 3 already.

I'm going to go and do RE4 again soon...love it. I haven't played an old style RE since before I finished RE4 on the Gamecube when it came out...so I'm a little afraid that I'm not going to want to do it at all.

 

[KingPK]

Fired up Bastion for the first time in a while. Forgot how much that game can kick your ass when certain Idols are activated.

 

[bps21]

I've spent about 12 hours in the last couple days trying to get the last star I need in Joe Danger. I'm losing my mind. It breaks my combo for no fucking reason or tells me that I'm not low enough going under the post even though I can't get any lower. And there's 2 spots where you have a millisecond to move under the bar or lose the combo...and it always takes one away from me so I fail.

My mother came over to drop off Christmas crap and asked what was wrong with me. When I told her about this Joe Danger madness she said "it's just a game".

Not anymore it's not.

 

[bps21]

Update that no one cares about: I beat that cunt of a level. It took me longer to beat that one level than it took me to beat Modern Warfare 3 on Veteran difficulty while collecting all the intel.

I also just got my 1000/1000 in WWE 12 so with that and Skyrim out of the way I can finally devote my time to Saints Row 3.

 

[Broward83]

BPS, what the hell do you do for a living?

 

[Smues]

Wish Ralph Wilson death and get x-box live achievements, obviously.

 

[cobainwasmurdered]

I've been playing the hell out of Fable 3. Super addictive.

 

[muzzington]

I've slowly started playing Skyrim more and more the past month but I don't want to burn through a tonne of it in one might or anything. I like that enemies complain about me leaving my rubbish around when they cut my head off.

Also been playing Star Wars: The Old Republic. Don't know if I want to play an MMO without at least a good amount of voice acting now.

 

[cobainwasmurdered]

I borrowed a ton of 360 games and I've been playing some of them so far. I borrowed:
Fight Night Round 4
Crackdown
Prince of Persia
Saints Row 2
Gears of War
Orange Box
Marvel Ultimate Alliance
NHL 06
A bunch of Lego games (Indiana Jones, Batman and complete Star Wars) which are as much for the kids as me.

I've only played a few of them so far. I liked Fight Night Round 4 a lot. Saints Row 2 I didn't really get into but I've never gotten into GTA either. Prince of Persia was really cool but for some reason I couldn't get past the first fight with the Warrior no matter what. I could get past all the others but no matter how many times we did the tap battle I could never win it. So I've given up on the game in frustration for now. So far I've had the most fun with Crackdown. I downloaded the Keys to the City cheats pacl just so I could jump 30 feet in the air and 200 yards distance and go nuts. It's crazy fun sailing through the air like that.

CWM if you are looking for older games, pick up BioShock. I just picked it up again and was reminded how fucking awesome this game is. I really want a release date for BioShock Infinite now.

 

[bps21]

I've liked a lot of game since Bioshock but I can honestly say I haven't liked any game more since Bioshock came out. It's outstanding.

 

[KingPK]

I wanted something I hadn't played before to tide me over until Mass Effect so I picked up Midnight Club: LA and Call of Duty 3 cheap. Midnight Club is actually pretty good; LA is modeled nicely and it definitely reminds me a bit of Burnout Paradise, which I loved.

Call of Duty 3 is p. shitty so far. Kind of makes me appreciate the absolute overhaul Infinity Ward did for 4.

 

[Sabre]

I almost bought bioshock for the ps3 today then suddenly remembered i have it for the 360. Damn my love for the ps3 as of late.

 

[KingPK]

Got SSX since it was only $30 this week. It's decent, but it seems to move too fast for its own good. I don't really have any "rivals" on my friends list either.

 

[Sabre]

I've been playing the hell out of Fable 3. Super addictive.

I found it absolutely bullshit.

 

[cobainwasmurdered]

I've been playing the first Assassin's Creed game which I got for my for my BDay. It's not bad but it's pretty repetitive so far. The graphics are stunning and it's tons of fun sneaking up behind someone and shiving them though.
