I just cleared the story mission in Chapter 11 in Resonance of Fate on Xbox 360. Now to do all of the guild missions, since the game forces you to clear the story mission before anything else. Both 10 and 11 had really brief story missions, although I spent a good chunk of time clearing the optional missions in Chapter 10 since most of them required either several battles or forced me to backtrack through old dungeons I had already cleared because somehow a new item magically appears in them that someone wants. :/ Kinda tedious stuff in Chapter 10, to be honest. Story is picking up, though, at least in the sense that there's some drama going on. It's still not really moving forward whatsoever, it's just painfully slowly revealing the details of the mysterious past behind each of the three characters. I now have over 50 hours on the clock.

Pac-Man on NES. I got 31330 points on my first try which I'd assume is pretty good .

That's good to know. We picked up that game for cheap when HMV was getting rid of its videogame section, but didn't have a chance to play it yet -- too much of a backlog to go through first.

At long last, my 360 was hooked up again to the TV, now that our Internet connection is back (the fun of moving... and forgetting to change ISPs in advance!). I played a bit of Wonder Boy in Monster World off the Monster World Collection. Made it to the double rock boss (forgot its name) that gives the trident as a prize. I was in a Wonder Boy mood because of Game Center CX -- the latest fansub release is Bikkuriman on the PC Engine, a licensed port of Wonder Boy in Monster Land that uses characters from a sticker game series.

I also play my latest 3DS acquisition, Mahjong Cub3d, a Mahjong/Shanghai solitaire game that has both the classic game and a cubic variant, each with 20 layout options. It may be a simple time killer, but it's still very enjoyable. Some of the layout maps in the classic modes are quite challenging...

Daryll, is that a clear ps1? Not sure I've ever seen one, is it a dev kit? Pretty badass I might add. Also, I'm 28, and I've had the game since I was young, but I finally sat down and beat Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins. Not a big feat, but another game checked off the list.

Glad my posting of my impressions is helpful. As much as I've been bellyaching about the game, though, I'd still halfheartedly recommend Resonance of Fate. It's kind of funny, prior to playing, I had gotten the impression that it was a "love it or hate it" kind of game, but unlike so many other players, I find myself decidedly in the middle. I'm still reasonably enjoying myself and I wouldn't say it's a bad game, but it's not particularly remarkable either. It really sums up my stance on most modern RPGs being overbloated. So much time spent for accomplishing so very little. I feel it could literally be half the length, if not shorter, and not suffer any negative consequences (I'm sure it would benefit, actually). It doesn't really feel like it's going anywhere, and as unusual as the battle system is, it gets pretty repetitive after awhile (no new characters, no new moves, not much variety to the enemies, and no new scenarios that require you to change your tactics to any significant degree). Add in bland music (and I had such high hopes that Kohei Tanaka would bring something new to tri-Ace's games) and graphics, while detailed, that are severely lacking in color and creativity, and it amounts to a fairly lukewarm experience.

Anyway, I just cleared the story mission of Chapter 12. Seems like it's going back to some filler with this wedding and Christmas stuff before I guess it gets serious in the final chapters.

Just picked up castlevania III for 5$. played it for a couple hours, gonna give it another shot later tonight. It's hard as hell

Hi..

It’s a Clear PlayStation..One of my first Playstations,I’ve had this system for well over 10 years...I purchased the clear shell and did the swap,I still even have the original grey case ..I like that I can see the disc spin..
This system actually stopped reading discs then started working again...
I’m testing Gamesharks and Playstation Enhancers cheat devises to list on ebay but I don’t have many Playstation games(besides sealed) to match what’s on the lists of cheats in the Gamesharks lists of games in the unit to try..So I busted out this old viewpoint game that a friend of mine sent me in CA after hearing I sold the copies I had for Neo Geo AE$S and MVS..
I Suck at the game but having cheats helps

[The 1 2 P]

Still playing Rumble Roses trying to attain the world title. I wish they made the path to the title much more clearer in relation to exactly what you need to accomplish.

played some gunblade ny and la machine guns on the wii yesterday good times

[starchildskiss78]

Yesterday (and today):

Kirby's Return to Dreamland (beat it!)

Today:

Donkey Kong Country Returns

This is an odd game in my library. I was so impressed by the original Donkey Kong Country (SNES) but always found it too hard. Ditto with Donkey Kong 64. I never bothered with the other Donkey Kong Country games for the SNES and the Gamecube game Donkey Kong Jungle Beat never held my interest. This one for some reason does. I don't think the visuals have anything to do with it and I sure am not a fan of trying to hunt down K, O, N, and G as well as the puzzle pieces. I keep dying and dying and dying (especially the mine cart stages) but I keep telling myself "just one more try" and I go at it again.

Today:

Super Paper Mario (Wii)

It's been a while since I last played the game. I finished Chapter 2 last time and I was completely lost when I returned to the game. I finally found where to get to Chapter 3. I made it to 3-3 and can't get any further. I probably will be lost again the next time I play!

[SpaceHarrier]

Never thought I'd type this..

Call of Duty Black Ops

Only played the zombie mode, mostly the white house level. A friend wanted assistance with getting further in this but ended up reviving me for most of the afternoon. Eventually he gave up and decided he was better off on his own..

Also been playing Castlevania Adventure Rebirth (Wiiware). It's fun stuff, love the music. Sounds very 'TMNT arcadey'.

[chrisballer]

Last couple days I have been playing:

Burnout 3/Burnout Revenge (XBOX)
Red Dead Redemption (PS3)
Super Mario Galaxy (WII)

I am new to the Burnout series, and they are awesome. Right now I am not sure if I like Revenge more than 3. I had started RDD on my 360 before it puked, so I have not surpassed where I was at yet, but still enjoying it. I got a great deal on the game of the year edition is why I picked it up for the PS3. Yes I had Super Mario Galaxy in my back log, and I am finally giving it some playing time. The game is fun, but I wish that you could use a button to spin instead of shaking the wii-mote.

[Andy]

Playing the Atari 800 versions of Miner 2049er and Jumpman.

[Bardoly]

English-translated repro cart of Do Re Mi Fantasy: Milon's Quest for the SNES.

This is an absolutely great game!

[Aussie2B]

I just started Chapter 14 in Resonance of Fate on Xbox 360 with 64 hours on the clock. I guess I'm kinda, sorta in the home stretch now, considering there are only three chapters left, but that very well could be another 15+ hours of play time for me. Anyway, the Christmas mission in Chapter 13 was silly and stupid, but still fairly fun, if only for how hilarious the reindeer suits look. For all its trying to be funny, the game FINALLY got a laugh out of me. Now it looks like it's time for serious business, so hopefully the story will go somewhere before I'm on the freakin' final boss.

[gameplayerspecial]

F1 2011
Dirt 2
King Kong 2 (MSX)

[The 1 2 P]

Now that I bought a new copy of MW3 I have been playing that and Halo Reach on my 360. I'm trying to get thru Heavy Rain on PS3 but I'm not very engaged at this point. It's actually pretty damn boring so far.

[AtlusFan]

I´ve been playing those games recently:

Final Fight One (GBA)
Theatrhythm Final Fantasy (3DS)
Crusader: No Remorse (Saturn)
Ys Origin (PC)

[susonjoy]

I love to play the games a lot because I show lot of interest to know each and every game, what the game is about? The games I love to play daily are Angry Birds, Mario Galaxy, NFS, these games I most probably prefer them to play daily. Playing the games gives us a lot of skills like developing educational skills and also gives us entertainment.

[linkbaiting]

I always play solitaire.

[Aussie2B]

Still in Chapter 14 in Resonance of Fate, but all I have left in the chapter is to beat the story mission's boss. Well, and assuming the time cycle goes back to normal, I'll go through the world to read all the nighttime dialogue. I would've beaten the boss already, but I was getting tired of playing by the time I got up to the battle and I found the losses particularly annoying. I generally don't mind retrying, but this one is a pain because you start far from the leader and there are annoying soldier grunts that waste a bunch of time to take out. I tried ignoring them, but as easy as they are, they end up kicking my ass as I try to make my way to the leader.

[The 1 2 P]

So Heavy Rain finally started to pick up a little bit now that I started switching characters. I also played and beat Tekken Hybrid.

[otaku]

tried playing House of the dead overkill last night on wii I remember loving it when it came out playing with friends etc. couldn't get into it this time sadly maybe another time
