PS3: Gonna make one last ditch effort to get into Hyperdimension Neptunia. For years I've been trinyg on and off to get into it..... and I just can't. This is a game I SHOULD be loving, but with the REAL basic RPG elements... it's hard to keep concentrated on it. Hopefully, this time's the charm~

Vita: Of course it's Persona 4 Golden, which I'm loving. The game is just so much more visually pleasing than the PS2 version in my opinion. Took some time to get used to Chie's new VA (mostly due to the fact that I was playing Virtue's Last Reward on 3DS pretty steadily right before this game, so Chie was pretty much just Quark for the longest time to me). I doubt this game will be leaving my Vita for a loooong time, seeing as I plan to Platinum this game~

3DS: Still working on Virtue's Last Reward, not as much as I was with Persona 4 Golden on Vita keeping my attention. Only got about 4 story branches complete so far, all on the left side of the chart, gonna move to the middle next.

Finally snagged a platinum trophy on Kami Jigen Neptune V. My first platinum, ooohh~~

I even went through the trouble of doing most of the quests and getting the best equipments. Though the DLC Colosseum quests remain...but I can't really do anything about those unless I pay up for the level cap+ DLC. Those greedy yet cunning bastards, distribute the quests for free but make us pay up for the means to clear them. *shakes fist in air*

So for now I'm attempting to finish my trophy collection for other games. Currently looking at Tales of Vesperia and Tales of Graces f.

Definitely not going to finish the trophy collection for Disgaea 3 and Star Ocean 4 anytime soon so...

Hopefully that'll keep me busy until Fate/EXTRA CCC and Hatsune Miku - Project DIVA F (the PS3 version, with a "F", not a "f" like the Vita version) comes out next spring.

...unless I can pull together enough money to buy a PSVita. Which reminds me, is the PSVita region locked and how much do the games cost to DL if you have the UMD? So many games I want on the PSVita...

Ryonea · 2012-11-24, 19:09

^ Star Ocean 4's platinum is just near impossible

thanks to those battle trophies.

I don't own a Vita but 1 thing I know that it isn't region locked

Haven't played much because I'm busy studying Japanese, doing projects and recovering from Hurricane Sandy. Aside from that, after Christmas, I will have a lot of new games to play with, mostly on the PS3 and the PS Vita (3DS only getting Paper Mario). I also preordered Atelier Totori Plus, which there is a localized PS3 version of and coming out the end of next week. I wonder what additions they have added in this port... but yes, I do know a bit of Japanese although it takes 5x longer to understand what they are saying since I have to look up words that I don't know. Also planning to get Tales of Graces f, Atelier Meruru, Little Big Planet Vita and Persona 4 Golden.

For now, playing more Little Busters on my Playstation Vita, but haven't decided which arc to do first. Maybe Komari since they finished that in the Anime already. (No, the Playstation Vita is not region locked, although the cross and circle buttons are swapped only for the system software, not the Japanese region software)

Finally got around to playing L.A. Noire after buying it on a Steam sale months ago. Good game, though Zero Punctuation was right when the animations get a little silly and uncanny-valley-ish.

Going to dig through my Steam backlog and see what else I paid for and haven't actually finished or started yet...

Up next:

Fairy Bloom Freesia (on Easy this time, holy crap this game is balls hard)
SOL Exodus
Bionic Commando Rearmed
Mirror's Edge (never did finish this one, so I'll give it another go)

One day, when I'm feeling especially patient I might try X3: Terran Conflict and X3: Albion Prelude. I'm all for good space sims but these games are... complicated. Obtusely so.

willx · 2012-11-26, 15:21

Thought I'd pop in here with some musings that I've been having ..

Lately I find myself playing less and less RPG or story/plot focused games than usual, and after speaking to colleagues and friends, this seems to be endemic of all of us finding less and less time to commit to these games and more and more often leaving them and coming back to .. well, we have no idea where we are or what we're doing..

Thus, lately, I've been playing: League of Legends, Dota 2 and World of Tanks -- pick them up and drop them off, you can come and go and it'll be the same. I am however, interested in playing Sins of a Solar Empire, which was recommended to me as a good 4X strategy game for someone that enjoys/enjoyed MOO2 and Civ as well as the Homeworld series and Total War series!

Reply hazy, ask again later

liquidmetal · 2012-11-26, 19:40

Finished the storyling of Sleeping Dogs.

Actually enjoyed it more compared to GTA, probably because of the location and the fighting system.

Toddler Naruto · 2012-12-01, 03:10

I'm finally playing Assassin's Creed (PS3) for the first time ever, it's every bit as awesome as I hoped it would be

!

Sadly I have noticed at least two bugs

.

1.) Sometimes the loading screen for the animus never "finishes/loads". I'm talking about the one where you can move Altair around it, not the loading bar thingies.

2.) Sometimes the in-game movement "slows down" or straight out "freezes".

Does anyone know how to fix these two bugs

?

Alchemist007 · 2012-12-01, 04:31

Just beat Telltale's The Walking Dead. Truly a masterpiece in storytelling.

I know right? I cleared the main story and got all the characters' individual endings and I've even attempted the bonus dungeon but...it's pretty darn difficult. I don't think it helps that I'm sticking to an all female party. Not sure if I'm even going to bother attempting a Platinum on this

The trophies for Disgaea 3 is quite troublesome and time consuming to get too. Right now I'm spending my time leveling up and gathering items in the Land of Carnage. Just got my hands on a Legendary Yoshitsuna sword, let's see if I'll live to reach the 100th floor to get the Rank 40 sword.

Currently waiting on "THE BEST" version of Catherine(JP PS3ver) to be released later this month.

Hitman Absolution - duno if it's just me, but I love just straight up shooting everyone in the head when the area is clear instead of fiber wiring them despite the many possible ways of killing/knocking out. I do love using the knife as a head shot killer too.

Crusader Kings II - played it during summer and stopped but I picked up a lot of the DLC for cheap during the Thanksgiving weekend sale. So addicting/fun/frustrating haha.

shinku no kage · 2012-12-05, 11:17

Been going back and forth playing Disgaea 3 and THE iDOLM@STER2 on the PS3.

In Disgaea 3 I've been trying to get the rank 40 items but...since they only appear on the 100th floor of the item world of Legendary rank 39 items in the Land of Carnage, it's pretty damn impossible for me to get them as of right now. Even with my highest level thief the chance of success of stealing it is 1%...though that means that theoretically if I try 100 times to steal it then I will succeed atleast once.

As for iM@S2 I'm soooo close to getting that Platinum trophy. (=w=)-3

...also been trying for a Platinum in Rune Factory Oceans/Tides of Destiny. All I've got left to do is fishing...LOTS and LOTS of fishing. orz

I am currently playing Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater HD (PS3).

Sagi · 2012-12-06, 02:14

Snake Eater is my favorite Metal Gear Solid game.

barcode120x · 2012-12-08, 15:29

Beat Hitman Absolution, got tired of Crusader Kings II lolz.

Onto:

Rome Total War - modded of course with DarthMod (props to him!)
Silkroad Online - pserver...
BF3 Aftermath - addicted!

shinku no kage · 2012-12-08, 23:28

Playing Rune Factory Oceans/Tides of Destiny.

Also finishing up SD Gundam G Generation Overworld. Got the unit collection up to 99%, only four more units until 100%.

papermario13689 · 2012-12-09, 00:28

Tales of Vesperia again. I've pumped quite a few hours over the last few days into it, but I realized I've made quite a few mistakes in my achievement hunt that I can't reverse. Damn this game's achievements though, seriously.

Ryonea · 2012-12-09, 01:12

Replaying Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots [PS3] for earning all of the trophies. I cleared this game 100% long time ago but now I need to start from a scratch again.

Looking at the trophies list, I thought it shouldn't take long since I don't need to earn all of the emblems (especially Big Boss one's), but it turned out that I was wrong. While there's no trophy that requires to collect all of the emblems, there's one that requires to collect all of the iPod soundtracks. And two of them are unlocked by collecting all of the emblems.

In other words, I need to repeat the painful process of getting that Big Boss emblem~ orz

blaze0041 · 2012-12-10, 00:04

Sonic & All-Stars Racing Trasformed (Wii U)
Great fun, and quite challenging. This'll probably a great party game to play!

liquidmetal · 2012-12-10, 14:55

Went through the campaign of Halo 4 with a friend. First Halo I have really enjoyed since the first one.
