I got Persona 3 Portable a couple of days ago and I can't stop playing it.

Giving Red Faction: Guerilla a shot since I bought it during the Steam summer sale and HOLY CRAP THIS IS AMAZING. Destroyable buildings + physics = fun.

I finished the first, so now it's onto Assassin's Creed II!

Sonic Colors. Not exactly "playing right now", more like "just finished". Went through it twice so I could hear the English and Japanese voices. I wouldn't really call the levels as good as the Daytime stages in Unleashed, if only because Colors focused more on 2.5D platforming (you'd think they'd let the DS handle that instead) and weren't especially hard. Of course, the fact that all of the game's levels were still essentially like Unleashed's Daytime stages helped it out, plus Colors' music is infinitely better IMO.

Garlyle · « **Reply #785 on:** July 19, 2011, 02:27:34 AM »

Yeah, I can pretty much get behind you on that assessment of Colors. But to be honest I was fine with it. I tried to play Sonic 4 recently and...... eugh. I'd rather they kept doing 2.5D ala Sonic Colors!

Anyway, finally got a game I wanted for my 3DS (Samurai Warriors Chronicles). It is fantastic. It has done a huge number for actually freshening up the Musou formula (There's up to four playable generals in a stage and you can jump between them instantly, direct them in combat, there's actual tactical options you can manually activate, more personal interactions with generals, etc etc) on top of having all the new stuff that SW3 introduced... ahh, it's so great~ <3

And now we begin the adventures of the fully-DLC-equipped Murderface Hawke.

LET AWESOME BE DONE, THOUGH KIRKWALL BURN FOR IT

Finally got around to play Fate/stay night.

Damn, the prologue took 2 hours. I hope the rest of the game will be long as well. Pacing seems pretty good too.

Not me, but my little sister who is eight finally picked up Persona 4 again.

She beat the good ending final boss in 15 minutes at level 77 ;-;
And up until that point she was hoarding all her money and all of her characters were either wielding entry level equipment or things she found in chests.

Her Yukiko has 83 magic.
Agidyne from her on a Heat Riser would deal 500+ damage per turn on a Debilitated final boss D:

This little gem. It's a modern-day Oregon Trail, basically taking place as a road trip to a music festival. It's got all of the stats and pitfalls, given modernized twists. Can you make it to the music festival before your companions all leave you and you work a deadend job at a minimart for the rest of your life? BV

I've been playing Grand Theft Auto games I bought from the big steam sale. Played and finished III, and I WAS playing Vice City, until I discovered the game doesn't like Vista (unlike the older III) and will randomly crash upon unpausing. Now, unless there's some fix, I'm not sure I want to play...

wailofthebanshee · « **Reply #792 on:** July 20, 2011, 10:49:53 PM »

I've been playing the Fall from Heaven mod and its modmods for Civilization IV the whole summer. Extremely addicting and fun.

And Earthbound, kinda.

Part two of the escapades linked earlier.

Mr. Sacchi · « **Reply #794 on:** July 21, 2011, 12:42:59 PM »

Septerra Core. Which was pretty much the only RPG I played when I was a kid. And that was before I even knew english

In short, immediate nostalgia :* It's gonna be fun to actually be able to finish this game now. In any case though, I don't remember the combat being this SLOW~.

(Also, this game needs a serious remake, it's that good.)

Phlegeth · « **Reply #795 on:** July 21, 2011, 07:28:25 PM »

Got bored and restarted HeartGold. My team is, when fully evolved, Mismagius, Typhlosion, Wigglytuff, Altaria, Ariados, and Golduck. Except for Mismagius, who I always use, my team is off the wall and things I've wanted to use, but never got around to it. Especially Altaria, I've never raised one before and they've looked neat. I'm at Ecrutreak City now.

Been hooked like a druggie on Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup. I normally play a Human Transmuter, because spiders, and I can get to Dungeon 8 with some consistency (Not counting the hundreds of times where I died to a random hobgoblin on the first floor).

チソウ タイゼン · « **Reply #797 on:** July 23, 2011, 12:33:55 AM »

Me and my sister have started NG+'s on Persona 4.
In an attempt to 1-shot Yukiko's Castle, I had an Agi reflected at me, dealing me 29 damage out of... 29 health.

should really take expert mode more seriously

Alice★f · « **Reply #798 on:** July 24, 2011, 08:13:48 AM »

Tales of the Abyss for the PS2. Hello new fandom. Step aside, Touhou.

I played for ten hours during a single sitting.

Hanzo K. · « **Reply #799 on:** July 24, 2011, 08:19:57 AM »

I have been looking for a copy of that game for ages.
Why must it be so expensive where I live? :fail:
Also, if you like that, give the other games in the series a shot, especially Tales of Symphonia.
Blew a good ammount of time on that game, logged over 700 hours going through and playing it over and over.
I'm on the....5th playthrough right now I think?

Yeah, but to be on topic, I've been playing Labyrinth of Touhou quite a lot lately.
And here I thought I'd hit my "That One Boss". Or rather, now I've hit my "Those Three Bosses".
Folks who have played it, and those who've read the LoT thread, will know who I'm talking about.

Does anyone want a copy of Nascar the game 2011 for PS3?

Reddyne · « **Reply #801 on:** July 25, 2011, 10:53:35 PM »

Been playing Fallout: New Vegas since it was on sale on Steam a few weeks back and it has completely monopolized my videogame time save for a little Touhou.

There are a lot of merits to the Fallout games, but the one I'd prefer to focus on here is the exploration. I love wandering into the vaults to uncover their secrets. You're walking through a mystery with its own dangers and hostile entities.

Spoiler:

These are consistently thrilling places to investigate and stand as some of my favorite places to explore in any videogame whatsoever. The only place that I can really think that tops these vaults in terms of tense curiosity-based wanderlust would be The Glow in the original Fallout. Anyone who may know a little about the games or has experienced it firsthand knows very well about what I'm thinking.

Finished Red Dead Redemption, one of the best games I've played so far.

Now moved on to Undead Nightmare, which is absolutely awesome so far. Freaking zombie bears!

Just got Metroid: Other M today, and damn it, I've already offed

Spoiler:

. It's not even that hard once you figure out the enemy tells. Though Ridley was a pain in the ass until I figured out that you need to Super Missile him when he goes black. Kinda like using Slap on that damn bird.

Speaking of, fought the final boss of Dark Dawn with a party just fresh from killing Dullahan and all below L50 and in base classes - no one died. At all. That's how easy it was.
