Just beat Ocarina of Time. The last boss was fucking epic.

'sup 1998. But seriously, the Ganon/dorf fight is one of my favourite boss battles of all time. The scale. The majesty. The epicness. Just an all around brilliant game ender.

Are you including the tower escape as part of the final boss? I hated that, it seemed so forced. But otherwise, yeah, great final boss.

Mr. Bungle · #**693** 05-21-2012, 10:51 PM

Yeah. I thought it was fun, and showed off some of the graphical capabilities of the N64.

Oh, I would love to try that.

Go ahead.

So, you were shit at it huh?

Just started playing Botanicula last night. It's really very sweet and I love the visual design.

Daxter King · #**697** 05-22-2012, 09:23 AM

I rented and then bought Max Payne 3. Game is crazy fun and the presentation phenomenal. There is a definite challenge to the campaign, but it rarely ever gets frustrating. I recommend it to anyone that enjoys shooters.

Dynamithix · #**698** 05-22-2012, 12:21 PM

My friend bought Minecraft and made a server and convinced me to play it with him. We played for 3 hours and made a cool house (and are still improving it) and found a bunch of iron. Minecraft is fun for the first time in many months for me, yay.

That bit was easy. I did it with like 50 seconds to spare.

Actually to be honest the whole boss fight was pretty easy, I only died a few times at the start because I had no idea what to do when you forght Ganondorf, once I figured it out, it wasn't too hard. Ganon was tough though, but I managed to do it without too much trouble.

I found Phantom Ganondorf at the end of the Forest Temple the most difficult boss in the game.

It has yet to get old for me. Then again I'm playing on xbox 360 which helps as I've never been able to get comfortable enough for extended periods of pc gaming. Looking forward to the game updating though.

Dynamithix · #**701** 05-22-2012, 08:53 PM

Well it just came out for the Xbox, I played it pretty much continuously for like 6 months in 2010 - 2011. After that it just got boring.

Oh, yeah it was easy. Just pretty tedious.

If I remember correctly, I found Bongo Bongo the most difficult boss. I know one of my mates struggled with Twinrova for a while.

I started playing it a week or so ago, but became side-tracked by revision. I'll probably try to get a bit further during a break today.

Crashpunk · #**703** 05-22-2012, 10:57 PM

Bongo Bongo? really? I found that guy really easy. Just shoot arrows at his hands then his eye then strike at the right moment. Pretty simple.

Mudokon_Master · #**704** 05-22-2012, 11:22 PM

I recently found myself playing Terraria. It's actually a really good game imo. I find it like a 2D Minecraft. That's also what it's usually described as by fans. I guess Minecraft created a genre of games by itself.
Collect wood, find a light source, build a shelter before night, kill zombies and mine.
Terraria is much more detailed than Minecraft though with boss battles, buffs, upgrades and music. And the creators executed it so well. If Minecraft became overly complicated like that, (which is the way I expect it's going), it wouldn't be very fun.
Terraria is though.

Still playing Skyrim.

75 hours dedicated so far, only questline complete is the main story. Currently on my way to the Dark Brotherhood sanctuary.

225 locations discovered and explored.

Hurr

I don't like to brag but... 370 hours, level 81. To be honest I don't think thats anything to brag about, more to be ashamed of.

I played Max Payne 3 last night for the first time. Absolutely brilliant, but really hard! Rockstar have never made a shit game, ever.

Nope. Minecraft got its idea from another game like it. In fact there were loads of games like that before it. Minecraft is just the most popular.

Ah, I wasn't aware of this. Anyway, I think the genre finds its addictiveness in its simplicity. It's quite strange how repeatedly doing 3 things can provide hours and hours of gameplay.

Nepsotic · #**707** 05-23-2012, 03:06 AM

I don't like it.

That's nice.

Nepsotic · #**709** 05-23-2012, 04:18 AM

No, I'm just saying. Its a big thing now and everybody's going on about it. I think I'm the only person here who doesn't like it.

Wings of Fire · #**710** 05-23-2012, 04:23 AM

How special must you feel!

Crashpunk · #**711** 05-23-2012, 05:37 AM

I've got to be honest I didn't like Terraria. The concept is pretty cool but I just found it confusing.

Varrok · #**712** 05-23-2012, 06:16 AM

It's more fun playing MP Terraria than SP Terraria imo

Crashpunk · #**713** 05-24-2012, 01:39 AM

Never tried it. Also that applys to Minecraft in my opinion.

Mudokon_Master · #**714** 05-24-2012, 01:41 AM

It's just that, by chance, I like Minecraft and 8-bit scrolling platformers and boss battles. That makes Terraria my ideal game. So it's more of a personal reason why I find it so good. I can't really explain it.

Varrok · #**715** 05-24-2012, 02:23 AM

You've just explained it. You like Minecraft and 8-bit scrolling platformers, you also say you like boss battles. Terraria does all that stuff well, so, IMO these are good reasons to like it.

sheridanm962 · #**716** 05-24-2012, 02:36 AM

Bought Munch's Oddysee recently, it's an awesome game... Maybe Munch's Exoddus would be great... When it exists

Nepsotic · #**717** 05-24-2012, 04:58 AM

There should be a seperate forum for Munch's Oddysee. They're different people.

Mr. Bungle · #**718** 05-24-2012, 07:51 AM

I still like Munch. It has some (major) flaws but it certainly isn't unlikable. I still enjoy playing it every now and then.

But compared to Exodus or Oddysee.... yeah. It's shit.

Crashpunk · #**719** 05-24-2012, 11:16 AM

Agreed, I enjoyed MO, It's just it could of been a lot better.

And I'm still playing Fallout: New Vegas. Almost level 20 now and I'm currently helping out the Brotherhood of Steel.

Daxter King · #**720** 05-24-2012, 10:46 PM

So I'm pretty much in love with Max Payne 3. It's the perfect blend of great gameplay and a phenomenal story telling. Those Uncharted games? Fuck those games, they're cinematic shit. MP3 shows everybody how it's done. You're always in complete control during gameplay and the story is still strong. Cut scenes and gameplay seamlessly shift and it's nothing short of amazing during those awesome moments where you can tell shit is about to go down in a cut scene and the game just throws you into the situation to chomp some pain killers and kick some ass. Also, the graphics are like, the best.
