Angry_Gumball Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 I need to get back on my Pokemon games...on Black, I'm at the 3rd gym. I need to level up my monsters. I want to get them up past the gym leader's levels so I'm not 'just barely making it' through. On HeartGold, I have about 10 gyms down now. Taking a break from Pokemon for the moment, I recently popped in Mario 3D land so I can finish where I left off. Now at World 7, so far behind on coins (I have about 58 star coins).

Andrewoplis Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 It's a sad day for Socom fans. All of the PS2 and PSP Socom servers will be shutting down on August 31. Socom 2 was what got me into online gaming and, in my opinion, the greatest online game ever created. Nothing beats the community that game had. RIP old friend. Man that sucks! I better get the original before its to late! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCalCoasters Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 Now that E3 has begun, it's beginning to look like the Wii U has a heck of a lot more potential than everyone thought. After seeing all the amazing stuff Nintendo and third party developers have been showing off, I have to say I'm hooked! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.J. Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Yeah, I watched all three press conferences, and here are some highlights - From Microsoft - Halo 4, Splinter Cell Blacklist, and Forza Horizons; along with already-announced games. Microsoft announced Xbox SmartGlass, which is essentially Apple AirPlay, but between Xbox 360 and web-enabled tablets and smartphones. They also announced Xbox Music, which essentially replaces Zune. From Sony - Beyond: Two Souls; plus two companion games for Call of Duty Black Ops 2 and Assassin's Creed III to be released on the Playstation Vita; along with already-announced games. Also, Sony announced Wonderbooks, which uses PlayStation Move along with augmented-reality books. It launches with an interactive spell book based on the Harry Potter universe. From Nintendo - Pikmin 3, New Super Mario Bros U, Wii Fit U, and Nintendo Land from Nintendo. Lots of developers like WB Games and Ubisoft showed off new games and enhanced Wii U ports of existing games, such as an enhanced Batman Arkham City from WB and a brand new title called ZombiU from Ubisoft. The 3DS was briefly touched on, and it will have its own presentation Wednesday night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Watch_Dogs and Project P-100 are the only two decent games so far at E3 that aren't a sequel. Disappointing, really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Of Spades Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 For me, the only games that really stood out to me at E3 were Watch Dogs, The Last of Us, and (very especially) Forza Horizon. The rest seemed rather meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molemaster43 Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 My brother got me two amazing video games while yard sale-ing last weekend: Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30 - This game is reminiscent of the original Call of Duty. However, the gameplay is a bit different, as you command squads and tanks throughout the D-Day invasion. This game may have been released awhile ago, but it is still an amazing game that features some awesome gameplay, challenging levels, and some humor. Age of Empires II: The Age of Kings - This is a classic strategy game. This game is about you being the Scottish and having a small army that you must build up to defeat the enemy, the English. There are a couple games that are similar to this: Civilization and Medieval: Total War. This game focuses on more than just battle, you also have to manage your economy and make it very powerful. This game may be from 1999, it still is an amazing game that is just fun all around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Real Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 AOE2 is one of the best all time RTS games...ever. and ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accelerate Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 I'm finishing up my Nuzlocke of Pokemon Pearl right now. I should be done tomorrow. Either failed or victorious. Not sure what you mean by Nuzlocke? I'm playing Pokemon Diamond right now. I restarted my brother's game on Sunday and I've already have about 30 hours of play time. Only have beaten the third gym but pretty soon I should be ready to face the 4th. I'm taking my time on the game to figure out my core team and train all of them equally, do all of the side-tasks, and fill up my Pokedex as I go. Basically, It's a challenge where you can only catch the first Pokemon you see on a route and if a Pokemon faints, it's considered dead and you can never use it again.

onewheeled999 Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Something like three years after first trying it, Psychonauts is still the strangest, funniest game I've ever played. And it's a dang fine game, at that. A bit rough around the edges on PC, but still fun. Especially having taken a basic psychology class, I actually understand a lot of the jokes.

imawesome1124 Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 I have a Skyrim question. How do you kill a Draugr Scourge Lord when he takes your only weapon? I need help because I can't go any further with the main quest until I figure this out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnage Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 ^ It's most likely the drop weapon shout. You should just be able to pick it back up. Or just go find multiple weapons and switch amongst them. Surely you must have a handful of loot on you that you could use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imawesome1124 Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 ^ It's fine, I managed to get him with my bow before he got a chance to use it. Being a stealthy archer in Skyrim is amazing fun. I started this game about a week ago and my archery and sneak are already both over 60. I cleared out Kolskeggar Mine completely without being detected once. Nobody ever knew I was in there.

RAWKIN_coaster38 Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 I just caught Dialga at the Spear Pillar yesterday! The entire moment was completely epic! I almost turned off my game without saving so I could watch the whole thing again. I went up Mt. Coronet with some lower-level Pokemon hoping to train them higher but mostly just got KOed. Dialga was a lvl. 48 and all my guys were 41 or lower... so I used pretty much all my revives just to get through. Ended up catching him with a Timer ball because of how long it took. Totally worth it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twitch Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Got Pikmin 2 a couple of days ago. Just beat the Cavern of Chaos, and am heading to the Hole of Heroes. The game is so much easier with the Wii controls. EDIT: Just beat the Titan Dweevil. I just played through 39 floors of pure horror. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry_Gumball Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Was in a Big Lots store (Discount/discontinued goods) earlier when I randomly walked by the forgotten/bargain bin games when I saw a gem sitting there, being the DS game Legend of Zelda Spirit Tracks. I've never played it before, was tempted to pick up a copy a year ago when I got Ocarina of Time only to not see it anywhere other than maybe Game Stop. So yea, I just started out on the game, trying to figure out where to go and get used to the whole stylus-only controls. So far it seems like it's going to be a cool/fun game! Also dusting off LittleBigPlanet 2 while trying to think up some level idea and make PS Move-integrated stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCalCoasters Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 ^Spirit Tracks is light years better than Phantom Hourglass! I absolutely love the game. The visuals and the soundtracks alone are worth the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twitch Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Trying to do an eight day run of Pikmin 2. I'm currently on day four and need to wrap up Awakening wood on the day that I get blue pikmin. The real challenges are going to be Perplexing Pool and Wistful Wild as they are the largest, and most difficult areas to finish in one day. I love the music in the Pikmin franchise.

Ace Of Spades Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Steam Sale Personal Kill Count: 2 -Audiosurf -MW3 (Was bought by a friend, returned the favor with Galactic Civs 2 and Crusader Kings) (Will update as events warrant!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoisonedPirate Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 After not playing games for a while (been busy with work) I have decided to not finish any games I have started and instead crack open Team Fortress 2! I've always loved the art style and have been meaning to play it for ages! After a couple of sessions I find that I normally play as BLU scout or RED engineer. But I also like playing a Pyro as well. Only downside is that now I'm addicting to playing this, all my other games have been forgotten about! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onewheeled999 Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 I made my first purchase from the Steam Summer Sale 2012 today.. Frozen Synapse's DLC and soundtrack, just over $3 total. Something tells me that this is going to be the first of many... The only one I'm absolutely sure to make is the Walking Dead season pass, that'll surely go 50+ percent off on a daily deal.

Angry_Gumball Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 Been playing this: http://www.explodingrabbit.com/games/super-mario-bros-crossover Super Mario Cross Over, where you can play classic SMB with other classic NES characters like Simon Belmont, Samus, Link, Megaman characters, etc. Pretty cool stuff!

dylanreich Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Currently playing House of the Dead III which was on the Playstation Store for $6.99. This has been so much fun with the Playstation Move, especially with my younger brother, that we just bought the Sharpshooter gun housing for the controller. Also, House of the Dead 4 coming up after this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaMiTsPaT Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 (edited) This Steam summer sale is awesome! I picked up Bioshock 2, Dead Space 2, and all three S.T.A.L.K.E.R games for around $20! EDIT: Also just bought Amnesia and both Witcher games. Edited July 20, 2012 by BaMiTsPaT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
