What has everyone been playing this week?

[kryss]

MK7, MHP3rdHD and the Monster Hunter 3G demo.

Batman AC on 360,its okay but reminds me of Arkham Asylum too much.(which is not really a bad thing i guess)

On a handheld binge recently since I got a 3DS. Rented Starfox, Mario Kart 7, bought Ghost Recon and Ocarina of Time. But was also playing Aria of Sorrow and Spirit Tracks on various handhelds I have around as well.

Recently, I've bought a bunch of downloadable games. Fractal: Make Bloom Not War is a wonderful-looking puzzler. The campaign mode gets hard quick but it's a real nice challenge and I would easily recommend this. Bastion I bought yesterday and it's another looker. I'm a sucker for games with unique art styles and at the daily Steam price, I wasn't saying no. Pullblox is a puzzle with slight platform elements and it's a tougher game than it looks. All well worth the money as I've put in plenty of time into them already.

I completed Wall.e tonight. Thats how hardcore I am. Was pretty good fun with enough variety of gameplay to prevent things going stale. Probably helps that I liked the film

...you should never admit to playing that sort of thing Koops!

I have been blasting through the Secret Armoury DLC of Borderlands most of the week. That was until I met Crawmarax and my level 62 character got destroyed in seconds...even his minions were tough as hell
Time to start the Claptrap Revolution I guess and gain some more levels on that bugger. I believe he is capped at level 69 so I have a way to go.

Right, so after playing Dark Souls at a mate's last weekend, I had to buy my own copy this weekend. Spent a while getting back to where I was. For some unknown reason, I decided to play as a Deprived. Looked disgusting at the start, seeing that rotting putrid body, so I always made sure to have Humanity! Anyway, tried to play online with a friend, but it just wouldn't work, often said "summoning failed", so eventually gave up. In the process though I grinded many levels and gained a full set of clothes so I wouldn't have to display my flesh for all to see! Then I got really really really stuck on the rhino. Finally killed it. Desperately need to find a new bonfire soon - think I've only seen two all game. I'm not very good at blocking, I tend to use my reinforced club two-handed for maximum damage. I really enjoy this game, but I don't think it's quite for me - as I'm not very good at games and don't tend to like learning. Still, it reminds me of a shmup the way you go through the same sections over and over again until you can beat them repeatedly.

Been skirting around stuff mainly this week. Did a little Gears 2 (really need to get that finished), Back to the Future Ep5, Crash Commando, Altered Beast, Comix Zone, MW3, Hatsune Miku Project Diva Extend and Tomb Raider Trilogy

[gospvg]

Quite a bit since my last post, continuing playing my XBLA game with Assault Heroes completed, still playing local co-op on Splinter Cell Hunter mode with the new dlc maps this time & completed Lost Planet 2 yesterday.

Otherwise is still Rage on the 360 & Sword & Poker 2/Angry Birds Wreck the Halls on iOS with the usual Carcassonne, Words with Friends & Disc Drivin

I was playing Just Cause 2 on the PS3 for a couple of weeks after i rinsed Deus EX, but the repetitive nature of Just Cause 2 has resulted in me starting and really enjoying Shadows of the Damned... I think i'm about 3/4 of the way through the game, probably more... its like Resident Evil 4, meets Devil May Cry to the sounds of Silent Hill its easy to get to grips with if you look past the fiddly controls...

Got a bit further with Jet Grind Radio. Certainly becomes a challenge later in the game. I'm determined to beat it this time though.

Also played some more Tokyo Highway Challenge. Why, oh why, couldn't they get the proper car names?

[Skull Commander]

More EL PRESIDENTE, more Lumines 2, some Duke Nukem Forever and some Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition 2012 re balanced turbo champion black belt edition.

Got myself into a gaming pickle over the last three weeks. Got quite deep into several games and have also bought games that relate to games I've been playing (ie. been playing Metroid Prime for the first time proper despite owning it and its sequel since 2004/2005, so have bought Metroid Other M and M3: Corruption).

Feel really guilty about my DE: Human Revolution save because I've left it nearly three weeks now and I got pretty deep into it and was loving it...and then I started playing loads of other good shizz and it got waylaid.

So, back to Metroid Prime. Playing it on Wii, but it's the GC version, and it only looks good in 4:3 mode, but that's OK, I'm really impressed by how silky and 'appropriate' this game is, Retro Studios did more than a luvverly job with this, especially now it's ancient and this game is almost 10. I'll admit, I was well-stuck, was getting pissed-off by all the backtracking BUT eventually stopped being a dumbarse and *listened* to the ingame map text, found that 'half pipe', thus found them lovely double-jump boots and then began to advance rapidly, once you find them boo-itz (as some say in parts of Yorkshire), everything gets oodles more streamlined.

Great game. Late to the party...again.

Awesome game is MP.

[Neon Ignition]

Still finding it hard to focus on one thing but I imagine with the XMas bank holiday looming it will be my last big push through stuff. I'm aiming to play some of:

-Gears of War 2 (really need to just sit and finish this)
-Halo Anniversary
-Monster Hunter 3G
-Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3
-Splinter Cell HD

Finally beat Jet Grind/Set Radio.

The last few levels arent that hard but there's one about 3/4 of the way through which is an absolute nightmare. Think I had 4 seconds on the clock when I beat it.

Also been playing a little Batman Arkham City. What a stunning looking game this is. Just got to the part where you play as Catwoman. Really liking the subtle changes to the combat/movement with her.
