What are you playing?

SirJackRex · September 16, 2011, 04:25:43 AM

Yeah, me too. If you have an extra one afterwards, mind shooting one my way?

Dwarra? · September 16, 2011, 05:26:01 AM

Invites cost points and I've only got enough for one at the moment so I'll get you one tomorrow or the next day Mex

SirJackRex · September 16, 2011, 05:52:30 AM

Much appreciated! We should play Magicka sometime. It's really fun.

Dwarra? · September 16, 2011, 05:54:15 AM

I keep inventing spells that kill myself but they're so cool I can't help but keep casting them.

Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin - Snagged a used copy for $10. So far I'm loving it but not as much as the Sorrows. Gotta find Ecclesia and Dawn of Sorrow now...

XENOBLADE

It's living up to the hype and then some. I've played about 15 minutes but I'm loving it.

Super Puzzle Fighter II X - Best multi-player puzzle game ever.
Got lucky and found a Version 1 Dreamcast for $19.99. So happy to finally have one again (after my brother gave his to his hipster friend).

Black Version - Beat Elite Four once and just grinding/exploring my way up to a super-duper team and then gonna try some online battles. I've played Tetris and Dr. Mario online, so I'm fully expecting to be utterly raped by a Japanese person.

Sword and Cozzie if you see this what's a good Dragon-type counter? My noteworthy team: I'm currently trying to breed a Lavitar with Dragon Dance, and I've got a newly-caught 58 Murkrow, 44 Gyarados, 58 Escavalier (which is awesome), 55 Slowpoke (for Trick Room?), and I'm carrying a 53 Reshirim for general backup and fly and a 50 Poliwhirl for Surf, Waterfall, and Dive. My Tyranitar is 60 I think but I'm probably gonna skip town on him when I get the Dragon Dance Lavitar. Is Slowbro a worthy psychic addition or are their better Psychics? Is Gengar viable these days or is his sub-Poison a nuisance?

Also I'm willing to shell out a few Steamgifts invites if anyone wants one. The only restriction is that you must have at least $50 worth of games on your account (list price, not bought price).

Dwarra? · October 26, 2011, 06:53:24 AM

Dragon-Type counters in black only would limit you to Cryogonal or Beartic. You could also do Kyurem but you'd take quite a bit of damage too.

SirJackRex · October 26, 2011, 03:23:36 PM

I have a Beartic but it ended up being ineffective because every dragon I fight seems to have Flamethrower or Fireblast. It's bullshit.

Would Lapras be a good one? Or maybe Gyarados with Ice Fang could be good. It wouldn't receive STAB but his attack is high enough to still pack a punch.

Super Mario 3D Land - Phenomenal. My only complaint is how easy it is, but I heard the special worlds can be oppressively hard.

The 3D is actually really amazing, too.
Xenoblade Chronicles
Sanctum

Holkeye · November 14, 2011, 06:53:49 AM

I'm also playing sml3d, and it is really easy. I'm at the last area, (its like world 8 part 2) in the first half of the game, and I've only missed a coin or two. I'm really happy with it, though, because of the sheer variety of levels. There aren't two levels that have been similar yet, other than the airships. My favorite level so far was the small-scale open world desert level, but I liked it for the change of pace. My other favorites were the aquarium and the one made of sprites, where you get the propellor boxes for the first time.

Finally got around to finishing Portal 2 recently. Really amazed at just how much was put into it.

strike · December 06, 2011, 07:03:32 PM

Aco and I finished the Co-op together on Portal 2 when I was down there for Thanksgiving.

Zylos · December 06, 2011, 07:13:44 PM

Unfortunately, I'm playing the questionably acquired non-Steam version, which means I can't play co-op, earn achievements, or see any of the extras. But hey, I at least got to play the damn thing at last. :3

chewey · December 07, 2011, 12:14:13 PM

You can definitely play the co-op stuff with a pirated version of the game.

De Faalboot · December 07, 2011, 01:16:07 PM

RuneScape, Minecraft (free version), also used to play rakion, but recently when i try to launch Raion, it shutsdown my internet for some reason....

Japur · December 07, 2011, 01:24:28 PM

Super Mario 3D Land and The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. My december doesn't get any better.

SirJackRex · December 07, 2011, 05:18:40 PM

Maaaaario Kaaaart Seeeeven - Chewey do you have this game? Shyguy = Wario > Mii my character/weight choices.
Sanctum
Quake Live
and a bit of:
Section 8: Prejudice
Mafia II

chewey · December 07, 2011, 05:46:55 PM

Nah, I don't even have a 3DS yet. I really want to check the game out though.

strike · December 07, 2011, 07:25:20 PM

hi chewey

chewey · December 07, 2011, 08:12:29 PM

Hi

haloOfTheSun · December 07, 2011, 08:19:36 PM

chewey is my favorite Austr-alien ._.

Zylos · December 10, 2011, 06:38:50 PM

Going through the Resident Evil series all over again, starting with the classic "You were almost a Jill sandwich" one and working my way up as they were published. Hopefully this computer will be able to handle a decent Gamecube/Wii emulator for the few Nintendo exclusive titles. I'd be a lot happier though if I was actually able to finish the series and play RE5, but my computer can't handle the PC version and I lack a PS3/Xbox for the console versions.

Strak · December 10, 2011, 08:19:41 PM

I'm back to playing Borderlands. Siren this time.

Countdown · December 10, 2011, 08:57:45 PM

I'm playing Limbo at the moment. Been playing Mass Effect 2 and Splinter Cell Conviction. Downloading Alice, Madness Returns right now.

Arrow · December 12, 2011, 10:41:24 PM

Fortune Street~

chewey · December 12, 2011, 10:45:43 PM

I've played a little Fortune Street. I'm waiting on Skanks to get back to Australia before I play it some more though. I don't want to get burned out on the game before I get to play it with a group.
