Mega Flare
Awesome Bro
Just beat assassins creed revelations and omg worst assassins creed ever! Hopefully 3 will be alot better.
Lol Mega are there ANY games that don't disappoint you?
Right now (As we speak actually) I'm playing Sonic Generations, it's the best Sonic game of the last decade in my opinion, it's just so great, the only thing that would make it better would be 60FPS on consoles, but meh I don't mind too much anyways, it's still insanely fun to play!

Infamous 2 didnt same with resistance 3! yeah i hear the new sonic is.good. But now what should i play? I got a.3d tv now maybe il play something in 3d
jB, play the hardest levels on the hardest mode that you can possibly play. As a level 64, you should be able to do atleast half of the campaign missions on Hard, and at the very least, a third of them on Insane. You will get the most expensive loot on the hardest modes, and can sell for SWEET SWEET MANA.

So I've just finished Sonic Generations, it was really short, like, between 3-5 hours short (Depends how long it takes you to finish levels and how many challenges you do, I've only done 9 challenges and my play time was around 4 hours I'd say...) but god damn some of the levels are insanely fun to play, and trying to beat your times can be really fun too, it's definitely my favourite sonic game in terms of gameplay, but storywise, it's sort of meh, and the "plot twist" could be seen from a mile away, lol...
On that note, here's a really amazing speed run of Green Hill Zone Act 1... not me ofcourse, lol:

The next 3 levels? There's only 9 levels and 4 bosses lol, after the third boss you go straight to the final boss, the game is way too short and only has one level from each previous sonic game (Although two versions but meh), what they need to do is make something like this again, but much, much longer, or bring out a fuck ton of DLC levels...
Well, I WAS playing Brink, but after 3 missions in I decided it was a pretty terrible game, thankfully I only paid £4.99 for the special edition though, so not too bad... right now I'm playing Rayman Origins... fuck this game is so fun, I LOVED the demo, and the full game is just incredible, the art is gorgeous too... this isn't a game, it's a work of art... the gameplay is really easy and basic, but it's all so smooth and works wonderfully... and actually if you're a completionist, you could spend quite a bit of time, and according to [people on the internet], there's some pretty challenging levels too that you need to do if you're working towards the platinum/1000G...
Oh yeah, it also has 4 player local co-op too, so it's really fun if you have someone else to play it with, I'm playing it with my big brother and we're having a blast! Definitely worth every penny, and we're only an hour into it!

Holy shit I remember playing OGame a long time back. I think I'mma Rejoin it.
"What are we going to do Brain?"
"The same thing we do every day Spookeh: Try and take over theworld universe!"
EDIT: The graphics (if you can call them that) of OGame have changed a lot since I last played. Was kinda confusing at first.

Right now I'm playing the Final Fantasy XIII-2 demo...
It's really really really REALLY great!
My only problem with what I saw of videos was the way battles were handled, I'm all for random encounters, but if they are, I want them to be mandatory like the older games, and I thought the mog clock was weird, not to mention using monsters in battle made it feel like a weird Pokémon clone thong...
HOWEVER
After playing it (Still playing it now, levelling up to fight Atlas head on, I'm that kinda guy, lol), my problems have vanished, it's so much fun! I've got a Gremlin levelled up to 12 so far, and its damage is pretty insane as a Ravager (It's magic is 139, lol) and I love being able to use different monsters for different paradigms (Even though this is the only monster I've levelled up, it's nice to have another healer in the party), it's not at all as cheesy or gimmicky as I thought, I'm really enjoying it, and the mog clock is pretty cool too once you start using it, basically, the faster you attack an enemy after it pops up (Your "random encounters" if you will, although you can run away from them), you get a pre-emptive attack and it gives you a buff (It always seems to be haste, maybe in the full game, the faster you do it, you get more buffs?), but these buffs do eventually wear off after a few turns in combat.
Oh, and something else... you can control a different party member! Serah isn't giving out the heals you want? Switch to her and manually heal with the spells of your choice, then switch back, or if she's a RAV and is using the wrong elemental spell (It rarely happens for me, but it has, lol...) switch to her and use the proper ones, same with Noel, he kept using Blitz instead of 2 attacks, I know it's AoE but it's not very strong and 2 attacks is actually faster if you're comparing DPS...
Basically, this game is going to be tons of fun when it's released, the battles seem so much better, they seem to flow more smoothly, especially when switching between paradigms, and your monster has a sort of Limit Break/Overdrive bar, which is pretty awesome! Basically it fills up each time your monster attacks, or you use items on it (There's items that boost the bar up), you go into a sort of QTE where you just have to press a few buttons (With the gremlin, you just press X/A and that's it, it inflates really big, flies into the air, and slams the floor, lol) and it can really help the battle in some cases... and something else about monsters... YOU CAN MAKE THEM WEAR HATS! :3, I've got a gremlin wearing a big orange hat and it looks so cool, lol... you can make monsters wear other clothes too, but I've not equipped any more yet, I just love the hat, lol...
If anyone had any doubts about XIII-2, saying it'd be as bad as XIII (Even though I LOVED XIII, it's one of my top Final Fantasy games, as I've said before...), then this will get rid of all those doubts, it's actually a really big improvement over XIII, the only thing that could let it down for me is that in the demo, the music isn't as great, and the graphics seem to be a tad... weaker, they still look better than 90% of games on the market, but they are a tad lower than on XIII, and the main thing you'll notice it on is the hair to be honest, it looks... weird.
... One more thing: Jumping.
God, I could be a reviewer or something, although my opinions may be a little biased at times :P

Dark Souls
Just defeated the Capra demon (gave me some kind of key) and went into the forest because, well it's the only open spot I could find haha. Killed the butterfly too on first try..
Did they alter the difficulty or something? As this game (so far) is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay easier then demon's souls. I Only died 5 times so far.
I fell one time, got gangbanged by 8 (or more) ghouls in the undead Parish. And That capra guy got my three times in a row (the arena was ridicously small and the fact he has 2 dogs and his attack totally deplete your stamina aren't making the fight easier).. I was lucky the fourth time as my fire bombs took out both of his dogs and capra alone isn't that hard if you're a demon's souls veteran. he's just a flamelurker in a arena that's about 1/15 of flame lurkers arena (and he doesn't get the speed boost when he's about to die) :box:
glad they didn't changed the way the long sword works, still feels the same as in Demon souls (only now with jumping and guard breaking attacks).

Awesome Bro
i still hear FF13-2 is pretty lame. but as me being a huge ff fanboy il buy it day one and beat it in like 2 days lol. AND yes that graphics are worse... those assholes
I'm still cracking on with Rayman Origins...
I've almost finished it... I think, I've got to fight two more bosses, but to get one of them I need to collect more electoons, which I'll be doing by trying to collect over 300 lums per level (Unless you really really take your time, this is hard to do on your first run, lol, well... on some levels), finding more hidden rooms (There's 2 hidden rooms per level, finding one gives you an electoon), or doing speed runs through the levels, which is strangely really fun but VERY stressful, when you miss your time by 1 second because you jumped a few steps too early onto a bounce pad it makes you rage (After making the same mistake like 20 times in a row, lol...), anyway, so after I've fought these two bosses, I can go into the final area of the game which I assume is either just a boss on its own, or some levels leading up to a boss, and then I'll be done with the game, although I'll probably keep at it for a few hours afterwards to scoop up some trophies or something...
Afterwards, I'll have either Resistance 3 or Yakuza 4 to start playing, although I think it'll have to be Resistance 3, since Yakuza 4, if it's anything like 3 (Which it obviously is, lol) will take me a pretty long time to finish (Well, by that I mean over 50 hours), and I don't want to be playing a game that long leading up to the launch of Final Fantasy XIII-2 otherwise I'll never get it finished, and then I've got Soul Calibur V preordered too, which releases on the same day as XIII-2, but you don't need to be dedicated to finish a fighting game, lol so that's fine with me, I'll be playing it with my brother mostly anyway, and that'll only be for like 30-60 minutes a day most likely, still looking forward to it though...
On the handheld frontier, I've still got to play through some 3DS games, haven't finished Ridge Racer 3D yet but I doubt I will, it's getting a tad boring really, then I still have to finish Ocarina of Time 3D, and then I've got Shinobi and Rayman 3D to play through, they're both unopened (Got Rayman 3D for free, lol :D) and I'm still trying to find a copy of Tales of the Abyss 3D that's actually in stock and doesn't want me to wait over a month for dispatch, or pay an insane amount to get it beforehand... I'm probably going to have to buy a used copy on eBay, something I really don't want to but meh... as for my PSP, I've only just ordered Final Fantasy IV: Complete Collection (And I'm embarrassed about this, considering it's my third favourite in the series) and that'll be with me on Tuesday, so I'll definitely want to be playing through that, but again it's close to the XIII-2 release and handheld games always seem to take me longer to finish... (Probably because I can play a home console game for 10 hours straight without getting bored, whereas with a handheld if I play longer than 1-2 hours it feels like I've been playing for an eternity so I have to turn it off, which means games take me FOREVER to finish)
2012 is going to be great for gaming, but awful for my wallet...
