Games I've Played Recently
Re: Games I've Played Recently
I think I have Painkiller down, so now I need to get better at Panic Attack and Ace of Spades, as well as figure out how anyone could possibly play Visions, and it's on to the Hard Drums Endless Setlist!

Re: Games I've Played Recently
Played the Killzone 2 demo today... It's pretty good, though it reeks of unoriginality. (Imagine Call of Duty 4 crossed with Gears of War.) I've also been playing a bit of Call of Duty 4, Mirror's Edge, LittleBigPlanet and, of course, World of Warcraft.

Fweeee~
A very happy Saber is playing Fire Emblem: Sword of Seals.
Me friend showed me how to get it on Visual Boy and make it english-ified.
Yaaay! Anuzzer Fire Emblem to fill the Shadow Dragon void! And it does fill the void (though computer controls are a bit annoying).

...Rock Band 2 data...

...Corrupt...
I've spent hours on that game. I had 2000 stars in tour mode. I passed Visions on Hard Drums. I had $50 worth of DLC. It's all gone.

Re: Games I've Played Recently
Oh geez that sucks, sorry to hear that Cheez!
I've been playing Dawn of War 2 like mad, great game! The only thing is, near the end of the campaign (day 20 or so) there starts getting a ton of defense missions, and those have to be done in 3 days which is hard when you're getting a ton of them every day, plus trying to finish regular optional missions. All in all, no storyline movement until I can finally get the other optional stuff done.
I don't know if it's just bad timing on my part or if it's been a quiet week, but every time I get on Warhammer Online there's no orvr going on in my zone (That's where you have a chunk of the map set specifically for mad, uncontrolled PvP, it's very fun but order always hides right by their warcamp!
), so my main character isn't getting any renown right now.

That sucks Cheez. But, on the bright side, downloadable content is usually tied to your PS3/360/Wii store account, not your game save data, so you probably didn't lose that.

Re: Games I've Played Recently
Well, that's some good news at least.
I've had a few files go corrupt. Namely my Super Smash Bros. Melee. That went corrupt twice. >.< Why do these things happen?
But, what's worse is when I lost my main memory card a couple years ago. At least 100 hours of Fire Emblem gone there. Lotsa time raising my awesome chao...which is gone. That probably made me the most depressed. My awesome chao...gone. :(

That's why I love gizmos that let me back up my save data to my computer.

Re: Games I've Played Recently
I've been getting back in to Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. It's fun. I abandoned it a while ago because my brother (who owns the game) loaned it out. I'm having a good time with it.
Over the hiatus I picked up Metal Gear Solid 2, though, and I'd like very much to talk about it.
I don't get the hatred for Raiden. As far as I can tell, he's one of the more reasonable characters in the series thusfar. It shouldn't be considered odd to speculate on killing actual people. Admittedly, Snake is cool, but I just don't see why people despise Raiden the way that they do.
That aside, it was very fun.

Re: Games I've Played Recently
Hold on... how did I not post this here yet? Um... Monster Farm DS 2. Since like January. And nothing else. Except Tales of Symphonia, which I'm borrowing from someone... I've been playing that one too.
But mostly Monster Farm DS 2. My first import game~ Stupid Tecmo decided not to release it in English since the DS is region free and everyone that wanted it already imported it. So I decided to do the same! And I love it to pieces. It should've gotten an English release. It's one of the best Monster Rancher games yet. It's actually got a story... that I can barely understand. But I'm doing all right. Gameplay's similar enough to previous MR games that I figured it out without any trouble. The absolutely necessary stuff was translated courtesy of Monster Rancher Metropolis, and I can understand quite a lot of it anyway.

"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

Re: Games I've Played Recently
Yeah. Played that a bit lately (got to part 4...that was really fast. I started a new file...2 weeks ago, maybe?), but it's mainly Fire Emblem: Sword of Seals. My friend also is going to show me how to get an english-ified version of FE4 (Geneology of the Holy War) and possibly FE3 on me compy. Whoo.

Re: Games I've Played Recently
I've got nothing against Raiden either. I think the issue was that the demos and all the trailers before release only had Snake so everyone was expecting to play as Snake the entire time. Then you get the game and find out that you barely play as Snake at all... But yeah, people seemed to go way overboard on the whole anti-Raiden thing...until MGS4, where everyone thinks he's awesome.Stevenson wrote:I don't get the hatred for Raiden.

Re: Games I've Played Recently
I've been playing Kingdom Hearts recently. It's mostly becuase of all the KH badfic sporkings I've read. Trust me, some of them are really...disturbing. The fics themselves, acctually, not the sporkings. Those had me laughing so hard I was gasping for breath.
