What has everyone been playing this week? 2

[Kit]

Tomb Raider. The bow is soooooooooo fun. Favourite weapon of this gen.

[k0pp0]

DMC, BattleBlock Theatre and Sonic Racing Transformed. I think the latter has 'clicked' for me today which is nice.

[nakamura]

I can't get on with Sonic Racing, I just find it utterly boring to play.

[Brad]

Dead Nation. Amazing co-op fun this one! Love Housemarque.

[briareos_kerensky]

Senran Kagura 2, Bullet Girls, and Dark Souls II (DLC).

Don't Starve: Giants Edition on Vita. Died so many times...And keep going back for more.

[Dogg Thang]

I've been playing a lot of Zen Pinball on the Vita. Interesting that the timing is a bit different compared with the PS3. The PS3 flippers feel like they have more of a delay, more like real pinball flippers and they have more of a sense of weight too (not sure why exactly). The Vita's flippers feel like they react quicker.

I do like Zen Pinball. Too many ramps and doesn't often do enough with the bumpers or spinners but the tables are usually a huge amount of fun with plenty of interesting goals and modes. The new Walking Dead table is really fantastic and could be one of my favourite Zen tables ever, although I find it very tricky. I seem to lose the ball pretty quickly in this one.

I have one of the Star Wars sets, the one with A New Hope which is a pretty great table. I really like the Droids table though. Very open compared with many Zen tables. The Masters of the Force one is good too. Wish I had all the Star Wars tables actually.

Starcraft2. I promised myself I'd stop playing it, but I just get sucked in time and time again.

Big Diablo 3 session with a couple of mates on Saturday (same screen multi), lots of low energy kill-everything fun and plenty of rare loot acquired. Mixed in with some Mario Kart 8 for good measure.

Had a quick blast on Project Diva F on Vita on Sunday, I'm running through it again on my UK memory card. It's definitely a better game than F 2nd, although that has some fun songs too. Speaking of which, IA/VT Colorful is now delayed till next year absolute wounder as it was meant to be coming back on July 31st. I need more Vocaloid in my life.

Not sure if i just had a very inept players but i was Absolutley killing it on Titanfall last night, I completed the regen requirements for my next level up and still got a few levels to go and also unlock 3 mvp challenges, so hopefully i can get to the next level before destiny takes my attention elsewhere. I like how you can mix up your tactics and find what works for you my combo of an titian weapons and auto titan means i can rack up a few titan kills pretty easily too brute forcing a strider is super easy this way as a few scramble mines and a good vantage point gives you a pretty big advantage.

Currently trying to get my cash back from NinNin...I paid the day before the first delay!!

There is another rhythm game coming this year tho. Hideboh: Tap Dance Hero.

Been playing dont starve on the vita over the weekend. Fun for what it is, but im struggling now to keep my attention on it. Without an overall goal, and with literally everything out to kill me its starting to feel quite oppressive and extremely difficult to get anywhere.

With Destiny out tomorrow, this is going on the back burner for a while until i dive in again.

[dave heats]

Wow, it's been a while.

Anyway, in a bid to re-discover being fully 'l33t' I tried playing Dark Souls 2 this week. Never played the original either, but thought I'd jump straight in. And absolutely, thoroughly hated it. Am I generally alone in this opinion, or are there other like minded / correct people on here?

Yes there's also Bakumatsu Rock: Ultra Soul. They both look a bit naff though, Bakumatsu seems to be primarily some kind of otome historical visual novel, and Hideboh consists entirely of tap music with some decidedly ropey looking game playing.

I consoled myself with a session on Diva F/F 2nd/DJMAX Technika Tune last night. I'd kinda like to try Utagumi but the fact that it's impossible to reach good scores (because of the lyric sections) just renders it a bit pointless for me.

It would be great to see another Rock Band Unplugged, not that it will happen. That was a lot of fun on PSP. Or a more traditional DJ MAX.

Still, Persona 4 Dancing All Night is still coming this year \o/

Well, you started with the worst of the 3 games. Start with Dark Souls or Demon's Souls. I started with demon's souls, detested it and almost sold it. But then I went back and found out a bit more about it and how it's not a normal hack n slash and now it is my favourite game of all time.
