What are you playing right now?

Post Reply New Topic

GTA V mostly for me right now- red boxed it and am currently studying it. I think the multiple playable characters is a good thing, there are some wibbly aim mechanics, the driving is fun once you realize cars have more than two acceleration options (at rest and as fast as mechanically possible), and there is a whole slew of things to do. The genres fun I suppose but I've never been big into the GTA universe, and I haven't seen much forward character progression yet (for the characters that need it- the game isn't aiming for character quality like from the Last of Us, after all).

Would be playing GTA online right now except that it doesn't even work for me and near about more than half the people who bought the game, even despite patches that don't seem to work either. Actually I don't think I would, considering nonsense about a "bad sport" system in place alongside other things dumbed down for the idiots who want everything to be easy for them. GTAV has turned out to be even more of a disappointment than either Saints Row 3 or 4. Ugh.

May go back to MGS: Peace Walker to get whatever I have left(it's been a while and I forgot what all I do and don't have) and may even try some matchmaking if anyone plays it online anymore. Also need to finish Skyrim and Lost Odyssey. Might maybe perhaps have a job soon so hopefully I'll be able to afford a WiiU and Wind Waker HD, as well as Metal Gear Rising.

Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning

I thought I'd give it a try, since it was free on PSN for PS+ subscribers. I haven't been able to stop playing it.

Batman Forever on my new Sega Genesis.

Pokemon Diamond, recently caught a Murkrow and I'm leveling it to match the rest of my team.

I'm gonna get started on playing the Full Package Edition of Saints Row: The Third once it actually ships in this coming Saturday. As of now, I'm playing the games I have on my PS3.

Managed to get Metal Gear Rising.

might start Disgaea D2 soon...but more importantly, I will be playing Pokemon X as soon as it arrives probably next week ( pre-ordered w/ guide but had to do 5 day shipping to save money )

I just took up The Walking Dead on my vita. I just finished episode 2, and I look forward to finding out where the story goes from there.

Have played a bit of both Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon and Dark Souls recently. Have Blue Dragon now, too, but have yet to try it.

EDF seems much of an improvement over 2017 in a lot of ways, but I can't help but feel it is a bit more restricted and loses a lot of the charm the other had, being made more professionally and with a bigger budget. The new class system is cool, but I feel Jet is really the only useful one. Some of the weapons don't seem that great, but then I guess that was also the case in 2017, just that it seems there was much more a chance of the enemies dropping new weapons in that game. Having an active reload is kind of better. The longer missions are nice, though they can kind of drag on and I heard the game was overall shorter than 2017. Have tried the mechs and they don't seem as varied, sadly. The controls are at least a lot better.

Dark Souls is fun so far. Haven't got very far, though - just past the first boss and have been sort of grinding off of the first hill of enemies as well as the fodder down below in New Londo Ruins I think it's called? Have only died once so far, on purpose at the end of my play session last night. Wanted to see how long my character would last without armor or weapons, and it was a bad idea lol. I chose to use the Knight class since it seems they have more health? so leveling up I've been focusing on getting higher stamina, defense, and being able to use advanced and powerful weapons, though I'm not sure if I should be going for any kind of magic at all? I heard you can get some kind of bombs but I have not been able to buy them or find them anywhere. I have a bow I can use but no arrows. I chose the Goddess's Blessing as a gift but don't seem to have it? Can I sell any of my items or armor anywhere? I have a few that were dropped that seem to be lighter at the expense of being worse, so I don't want to lug them around and weigh me down. I guess I should look up some kind of guide because I have a ton of questions.

I was worried it would be clunky, since everyone seems to love Skyrim's clunky combat so much, but Dark Souls feels so much better to me. More like a much harder and very complex version of some of the Zelda games, only the controls are kind of unintuitive. It took me a while to figure out how to do the kick and jump attack. I keep accidentally pressing B and X to attack and all I end up doing is doding and drinking my flasks, lol. That and holding LB to sprint. I guess I need to play it enough to get used to it. At least I've been able to get down parrying somewhat.

Pokemon: X, and I just have to say that the game itself is very addicting; I just can't seem to put it down.

About to fight the third gym leader, too.

Also, here's my current team:
-Chestnut, (Quilladin), level 34
-Hydro, (Wartortle), level 35
-Combusken, level 35
-Sylveon, level 37
-Kabuki, (Zangoose), level 31

Anxiously awaiting to get my new Lucario.

I have officially got the Full Package version of Saints Row: The Third from the mail last Saturday and I'm quite enjoying it with almost every DLC and 3 episodic mission packs while playing the main game. Also, it has saved me money from buying the DLC separately if I were to own an original version of the same game.

I even net over $300,000.00 from killing Genki and built my character up to complete the later storyline missions at a easier pace.

Yes, I'm using purple text to show my fondness for the Saints Row series.

Eu IV. I'm destroying Catholicism in the name of the Great Swedish Empire.

I just started a consular (sage dps) in star wars: the old republic, I'm on the server Ebon Hawk (U.S East RP), looking to find others to play with (am willing to roll a new toon) and play with anyone. I'm going to be playing fairly extensively for the next two weeks sooo if anyone wants to forget about real life... Contact my character Cydelle, or add me on steam (My username is Klowglas).

In the middle of a few games...

Just finished Deadly Premonition last night.

About to begin F.E.A.R. the first one. Even though I've already played the expansion pack and the 2nd one.

Just started Red Dead Redemption, didn't have patience for learning how to ride a horse so I sort of stopped playing it a week ago but I'll pick it back up eventually.

Still haven't finished Saboteur. Brilliant game really. I was about 3/4's done when the game glitched and decided it wasn't going to save, and actually erased all of my progress. It took me all the way back to about 20 minutes into the game! I was so pissed I put it down and it's been about 3 months since I last played it.

I'm trying really hard to like Hitman but the shooting controls is driving me nuts. Even worse I'm not allowed to alter any of the controls apparently.

Yeah I think I have a bit of gaming ADD.
