I'm playing Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling together. Judging by the rhetoric that the turbo fatbeards on youtube are spewing, it's the best SRPG ever. I got it with the Guidebook which is something I haven't done since I was 13, but this is one of those cases where the guide will just explain how to complete the game but not how to beat the game, that is, I still have to play pretty carefully. It looks amazing; the sprite art is superb and all the character portraits look detailed and tell you a lot about the characters. The writing is fantastic, especially given the genre and the music is so good I had my headphones in my PSP and ended up listening to a 13 minute or so orchestral piece that was the menu music, thinking it was something else. It's pretty much the only thing I got for my birthday that wasn't food so I'm excited. Unfortunately updating away from CFW on my PSP to play it killed about 70 hours of progress on some homebrew games but oh well number systems and fantasy battles ahoy.

I finally got round to buying and downloading Corpse Party for my PSP last night.

I love it.

I completely understand the whole 'play scary games at 3 AM in the dark with headphones' thing now because Corpse Party was pretty god damn creepy.

Rediscovered an old Morrowind save. Couldn't be arsed to get back into it, so I just went for a stroll.

So pretty you just had to mess with us by giving many very small pictures of it. Stop being me evil

i always get crazy urges to replay morrowind. it was always my least favourite elder scrolls (extremely unpopular opinion) but i remember getting the biggest sense of adventure from it, which i miss a lot.

I'd attach a .zip if I hadn't used up all my attachment bandwidth years ago.

I have been playing Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee on my Vita and I'm now at the stockyard return part. Very fun.

Has anyone had a chance to play Behemoth's new game, Battleblock Theater? There doesn't seem to be a demo for it which is kind of strange since there's always a free trial for arcade games on Xbox. I'll probably get it later.

I just finished Bioshock Infinite, and:

Ohhhhh man, the trailers for this game are funny enough for me to consider getting a 360 just to try it out. Hopefully they release it cross-platform later on like Castle Crashers. How much is it?

I'm tempted to make this my sig but I'd lose banner privileges again and once was enough.

I would like to reiterate that Tactics Ogre VII is fucking amazing and probably the most well constructed game I've ever played. I'd suggest everyone download or buy it but it's effing rare and it's virtually impossible to pirate. If you see it in a shop pick it up, it's pretty hard to find and you can probably resell it so some sperglord for all kinds of profit.

As a matter of fact, I'd go so far as to consider doing my first Let's Play with it if some people could teach me how to do that with PSP games.

Wings of Fire 04-04-2013 05:48 PM

Is that the same as Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together? Because that's available for £15 on the playstation online store thingy.

Mac Sirloin 04-04-2013 07:20 PM

Noooo my dreams

Anyway I guess I mean more the physical copy of the game is rare. I haven't checked PSN in awhile but I'm positive they didn't have it the last time I was on there. Anyway you should get it, now that I've shanghaied you into talking about it it's simply the only option.

It's 1200 MS points. The reviews for it seem to be mostly positive.

I'm up to the third mansion in Luigi's Mansion 2.

First boss was a giant possessed spider, first midboss was three elegant ghost ladies, second boss was a haunted flight of stairs.

Luigi sure is getting shit done despite being so scared.

OANST 04-05-2013 07:15 AM

You're so much less interesting now, Strike Cunt. What happened?

You should post more grossly inappropriate gifts that your mother gave you.

Strike Witch 04-06-2013 12:04 AM

Look, if you want the sexbase buddha, I'm sure we could come to a price.

My brother used to have one of those, made out of jade.

Perhaps my brother is actually your mother?!

Strike Witch 04-06-2013 03:52 AM

Woah!

OANST 04-06-2013 06:34 AM

Now that's interesting!

I'm playing Slender - The arrival

Phylum 04-07-2013 01:29 AM

Getting back into Quake Live again, again, again. I almost built up to 1200elo, but I then lost ~6 consecutive games. Also, I had my face punched in by one of Australia's highest elo players.

Not being premium and having to stick to one rotation of maps is bad. Not being able to vote maps on free servers any more is ridiculous. I might just dish out the $24 and get into a regular routine.

Dynamithix 04-07-2013 05:46 AM

I picked up Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time for the Vita. I liked the demo a lot, but what really put me off once I started playing the full version was that I couldn't choose English as a language. I'm seriously stuck with the Nordic localization and apparently I can't play it in English unless I a) buy it from the PSN store or b) import it. *sigh* Anyways, the game is quite good so far, I just hate hearing the characters speak in Finnish.

Rayman 2 : The Great Escape

Fuck, this shit is still epic.

Mac Sirloin 04-08-2013 05:10 PM

I'm playing Dark Souls with Chris's help. It's a tough game but so far it doesn't feel unforgivably difficult, just rage inducingly hard. I'm still very early on though. Definitely worth buying if the level of depth in it is as much as people say.

FUCK skeletons though.

Strike Witch 04-09-2013 09:12 PM

I finished Luigi's Mansion 2.

Fun, enjoyable, challenging, bosses were a bit of a let-down.

Mr. Bungle 04-16-2013 11:17 PM

Batman: Arkham City

Oh man this game. Everything I ever wanted in a superhero game.

DarkHoodness 04-17-2013 04:29 AM

Dopefish lives!



Commander Keen was my Mario during my childhood, it was nice to go back and re-play it for the first time in a number of years.

Phylum 04-17-2013 05:04 AM

Monkey Island 2 for the first time.

I am not disappointed. It's every bit as perfect as it should be. I never want it to end, because I know that there will probably never be another Gilbert Monkey Island game for me to play.

I don't even know what makes it so addictive, but I just want to squeeze every line of dialogue and quirky puzzle out of this game.

The other reason why you never want it to end is because the ending is shit. That is not overstatement. I'm only saying it to warn you.


Awesome game otherwise, though.

Varrok 04-17-2013 06:17 AM

I wouldn't say it's shit. I would say you might not like it.

Also, Monkey Island 3 is awesome too. Make sure to check it out

Wings of Fire 04-17-2013 06:38 AM

I've heard about the ending from Nate and I thought it was awesome.
