Telltale Games

I was out of games to play... so I decided to start on the shin megami tensei series... not sure it was an entirely sane decision, as there are at least 15-20 games in the series...

VeronicanPlay · 09/18/2011, 10:11 pm

Just started GREED: Black Border an okay futuristic Diablo like game, but in terms of story, level and monster variety there is not much. But an okay little game if you like Diablo, good music and graphics.

Also trying Age of Conan, so far I am not impressed.

Mostly playing Dead Island and From Dust right now. However, I do get in some Madden from time to time. Still playing 11' though. Didn't really see much need to get the new one.

I've been "playing" Simon as well, but I got stuck about 2 months ago and haven't started it up again since. The game world is a bit annoying and confusing to traverse.

Still on my first playthrough of Dues Ex.
I couldn't save Malik

EDIT:OH COME ON!!!I get the game is about your decisions effecting what happens, but when one of your decisions MASSIVELY DEFECTS YOU against a boss battle in a game where they are incredibaly cheap and unfair ALREADY, you have problems!! And I dont have a save to actually go back and change my decision!

Just got my hands on the LittleBigPlanet GOTY Edition. Even if you already have the regular version (which you certainly should if for no other reason than it was free in June), this might be worth getting if you can get it or rent it cheap or free - I got mine from the library. It includes some extra costumes, all the Metal Gear Solid levels, and 18 "exclusive" community levels with video introductions by the creators.

The 3 "community" levels I've played so far are outstanding. Very long and diverse, lots of attention to detail paid, effort put into giving them "narratives". Some of the creator names I recognize from having played their other levels online, where these levels could not be found. If I were to rank all of the levels I've played, these 3 would probably all be in the top 10, with one of them likely being the very best.

Haven't even touched the Metal Gear levels yet.

Now that I have completed Sam & Max Season 3, I am on to Back to the Future.

God help you if you are playing BTTF for the puzzles.

Took a break from Assassin's Creed to play DJ Hero 2. It's...different. It's harder than any other rhythm game I've played so far, but I'm kind of liking it.

As for Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, there's only one memory between me and 100% synchronization. Unfortunately, it's the last War Machines memory, and the 100% condition is to not take damage while in the tank. I've had to restart the memory more than any other. Once I finish it, I might go back to the Lairs of Romulus to collect the last couple Borgia Flags, or since I already have the Auditore Cape anyway, I might just skip it and go straight to The Da Vinci Disappearance.

No I have read all the bad things about the puzzles, I am going to play for story and because I have bought them.

Just finished Shadow of the Beast on my Minimig, a little board this Dutch (I think) guy designed quite some time ago, that is basically a small board acting pretty much exactly as a real Amiga, only using an SD card instead of a floppy drive.
It uses real (9 pin) Amiga joysticks though.
There are some compatibility issues with certain games, but only a few... the vast majority work perfectly.

Anyway, the cool thing about the Minimig is that you hook it up directly to a TV, using a VGA cable... so it's a really convenient way to play Amiga games on TVs, and hooked up to a stereo as well (I'm getting really nice sound, using a very nice sound setup here).

One thing I like about the Minimig is that, just as on a real Amiga, you can't use savestates... using those can be so damn tempting at times, especially in difficult games such as Shadow of the Beast.
So in that way I'm glad it doesn't offer me the option, though it would have been convenient for other things though.

*Vainamoinen* · 09/30/2011, 12:25 pm

Trackmania 2, about half an hour every night. Ranking place 3 in my district (among 62 players), and working hard to maintain that place.

I love how the single player is so decidedly single player although you DO compete with people all over the world. If only I were better.

der_ketzer · 09/30/2011, 11:44 pm

The new version of Psychonauts on Steam once it downloaded. (there are rumors that they changed the Meat Circus Level and added neat Steam features and there is a MAC version now)

and

The Binding Of Isaac once the patch that lets me change the controls is released.

Alcoremortis · 10/01/2011, 09:12 am

Planescape: Torment. I "die" a lot. Mainly because I also seem to have a nasty habit of accidentally pissing really powerful people off. Knew I should have gone for a higher Charisma score...

der_ketzer · 10/01/2011, 12:22 pm

Charisma and wisdom are the most important stats in that game.

Alcoremortis · 10/01/2011, 12:24 pm

For me, I decided to be a genius wise person. Mainly because there was no option for being a lucky bastard like I do for the Fallout games.

VeronicanPlay · 10/01/2011, 04:11 pm

Finished first Episode Of Back to the Future, and have started in Alien vs Predator.
Done with Marine and Alien, just got the Predator left and so far the Alien was most fun.

Gman5852 · 10/01/2011, 04:40 pm

Bastion.
Have all the houses and have upgraded them all with the exception of the memorial and the lost and found
Loving the game so far.
EDIT:And on my run and gun gameplay of Deus Ex Human Revolution, the boss battles are a bit easier now that I know a few secrets(such as the freaking rocket launcher before hand, how did I miss that?) and ways to freak out the AI.

RetroVortex · 10/02/2011, 01:22 pm

The Binding of Isaac.

OH. MY. GOD.

This game is fantastic!!!

I managed after a few playthroughs to get all the way to the final boss.
Then I died.

Normally I would totally rage about that, but in this game it isn't so bad.

The game is short, but its very, very easy to die.

Even with my super-powered Isaac, I came very close to dieing a lot.
(and the only way one gets another chance is to find a green 1 up mushroom. If one can find it!)
