The Free Gaming Thread v2 : Electric Boogaloo

Link between worlds was kinda easy to be honest, finished it in a couple of days. But if you don't play Zelda much or rely on walkthroughs more so than usual, I can see where the difficulty lies.

Now try Link to the Past and see how far you get.

In the legen~wait for it~dary words that is of Barney Stinson: Challenge accepted!

Though I'll be busy with  Link between worlds. I have obtained the blue suit and barely died(with the thanks to my Boomerang) So it hopefully won't be long. Just six more dungeons to go.

Wow, so yeah that was interesting.

Main character of DanganRonpa finds his first dead body and goes to examine it, on the wall he finds something written in blood.

He examines it, and I get a close up of it. I turn the Vita upside down and the words say "LEON" with the middle line of the "N" slightly off so it doesn't seem like it's connected. I'm like "Ahh, so he did it"

Then the MC is like "What the hell, 11037, what does that mean? I better go ask the master programmer that I know"

So, I'm just like.

My copy of Halo 2 is broken. :(

I ordered it to have it after I beat the first game. When I got around to playing it, the first cutsceen was jumpy and would pop up a disc read error. Now I have to buy it again.

Good news is that the seller refunded me my money, which was nice. I also bought the Limited Edition which came with a bonus disc, which works. I'm not even mad.

My replacement copy is in the mail.

You can get Halo 2 for free on the PC you know.

I don't play PC games. Most of the games I could play on the PC I could easily play on a Xbox, Playstation, or any other console. There's also the fact that I have a computer that is too advance to play the old games and too old to play the new games.

Meh, alright.

Also, if you have a computer that's too advance to play old games, I believe you can find a way around it for it to work.

Like the Fallout 1 and 2 mods that turn the 640x480 PC game with messed up colours into a huge 1080p beauty, so if you have games that don't work on your PC look around for the solution.

Ya know my one big issue with Civilization Beyond Earth?

Its hard to tell what it is you've been needing until its too late. Well, what do I mean by that? Say, you want to build a bigger country. To make sure it doesn't all collapse, you focus on health and industry. So, you've got one city and what is essentially a fort. By this point, you're probably treading along fine, but by the time your second city gets established and going, you've already done everything you can in your capital. So, you have to completely redirect the focus of your nation on one thing to fix that because you're stagnating. Since you're having to refocus everything, you have to research more. Since you're spending more time researching, you're really not doing anything but advancing that one city and maybe going for another one. It all sounds fair up to this point. You didn't keep up with your research so you pay the price. Here's the kicker. Since you have 4 or 5 farms in your second city, their population is going up quickly. Because your population is getting higher, they're getting sicker. Since your people are sick, the research isn't going well. Since the research isn't going well, people get sicker. Since you're having to worry about all this at once, and now have to go down a very narrow path to get the one line of tech that helps your people not die miraculously, you're not focusing on your core objective. You might have 3 affinity by turn, say, 120. Your neighbor might have 5 of an affinity and be just fine, all because you have too many farms and not enough scientists.

Yesterday, Shenmue 2 came out 13 years ago.

Today, Jet Set Radio came out 14 years ago.

Oh man, Danganronpa is pretty sick.

The Class Trails are pretty intense, not as intense as Phoenix Wright but still pretty amazing.

Even the music for the arguments are great.



If you do like Phoenix Wright games as much as me check out Danganronpa, or at least have a look at the anime just to get a feel for it.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Well I fucked up big time.

My vita felt a bit sticky for whatever fucking reason, so I rushed off to dab it with some cloth in the bathroom when it slipped out of my hand and fell into the sink that had running water.

It basically dowsed it with water for about three seconds before I noticed what the fuck was happening and picked it out. I turned it off and cleaned it and tried turning it on again but nothing happened.

I stuck it in some rice and I'm hoping it'll be fine. It had some much stuff on there that we can't get back since we got items from fuck up from the PSN store and stuff.

All we can do now is pray.

Insurgency's so hard that I managed to die in the tutorial twice and the second time was as the end of mission audio started playing.

Most of the Beyond Earth tech quotes are pretty meh or all kinds of stupid/annoying, but I've found one I like.

Climate Control - "Stop talking about the weather and do something about it for once!"

Best affinity progress - "All previous versions of humanity will no longer be supported as of this update."

Honestly, I'm being serious about this because a lot of the dialogue comes off as "screw you for being human" or Hollywood science lessons.

I've been trying to get the platinum trophy for the first Ratchet and Clank game. It's a pleasant and frustrating challenge. Once I finish that, all I have left is R&C2, Deadlocked, and Into the Nexus for all of the main game Platinum trophies.

I really hope Insomniac makes more Ratchet and Clank games, it's one of my favorite series of all time.

I brought one PC controller down here to South America and my laptop, and the controller broke.
This bites.

Especially if you're in Brazil.
