I played murumasa and the art was amazing but the actual combat was really repetitive I could not get into it.

Well you play through the same stages and bosses at least 5 times with each character so it's pretty repetitive. The parallel storylines keeps you going and each character has a different play style. They all jump and attack differently, one character can fly but has to stop and reload her crossbow. I played on easy and still die 100 times.
 
Really? I've seen footage of that, its not tickling my fancy so much, just feels like an online Mount & Blade...
I'm waiting for Chivalry, now that seems a lot of fun imo! :)

one thing you will learn about jason every game he plays is fucking amazing
 
Castlevania: Lords Of Shadow

Not bad, never played a real castlevania but this game certainly is better than GOW (which it seems to be copying). The after credits scene was pretty cool.



Also, Guild Wars 2
Playing a lvl 28 Guardian, one of the few MMO's I've played so far I enjoyed.

Nah, not too bothered for Chivalry, I'm getting a little bored of the whole FPS scene, and a medieval game online would just feel weird using that viewpoint, except for ranged combat ofcourse, which War of the Roses does (Goes into first person when you're using a long ranged weapon). I've not played Mount & Blade before, so I can't compare the two, all I know is that I'm having a TON of fun with this, the gameplay is great, the graphics are gorgeous, and you get the most amazing feeling ever when you shoot someone in the eye through their visor from like 60-70 yards away...
 
I've been playing FFIV for a while now. I'm at Zeromus. I presume it is the last boss xD
I'm also currently replaying Fable 2. My favourite game me thinks. I love the start of that game so much!

I'm sorry, but Fable II is absolutely wank... so is the first Fable... and the third... it's a TERRIBLE series and has so many issues that stop the games from being fun...

Agreed, though I must say I've only played Fable II. What a waste of money that was....



Still playing GW2 myself, still fun :)
Besides that a little Anno 1404 and Minecraft.

Yeah, the games aren't even worth pirating, they're just SO bad!

I agree with you on Fable 3. But Fable 2 is sorta... "Mine and my brothers game" cause it's the only game me and him played simultaneously. It's also one of the only games I am better than him at...
I haven't played 1, but I have considered giving it a go.

Officially finished Odin Sphere (PS2). I bought it in 2007 but never played to the ending credits. There are 5 characters to play in the form of books. Once you finish a book the next character/book is unlocked. The major design flaw is that the only way to go back to the character select screen is to reset the system. It must have been that reason I had a different save file for each character, which screwed me when I unlocked the final 5 boss fights that you select which character fights based on where they are at in that save file. So to prepare for the battles I'd have to manage items for one character, save, reset, manage another character, save, reset, ect... then do the boss fights.
I started a new game last week, but kept it all on the same save file. I got the good ending a couple days ago. Spent the last couple days replaying the final bosses with different character orders to unlock the different endings.
Was it fun?

Ahahaha, yes I love the game, however the travelling and fighting minions part of the game was just such a stupid drag. I only kept playing cause I wanted to face the next boss. Oh and trying to get all the blades is pretty cool too I guess. Maybe try gearing up the difficulty to make each fight slightly more challenging?

Just bought BlazBlue: Continuum Shift Extend Limited Edition brand new for £7.65... if you ask me that's a fucking bargain, I've never played either of the BlazBlue games, and Extend comes with both games if I'm not mistaken, so that's nice to know, and I've been itching for a new fighter since I've got to wait until next year to play Injustice: Gods Among Us

BlazBlue is alright.
I lent Continuum Shift to my friend a while ago. I've accepted that I'm not getting it back xD
I payed about £5.00 for Continuum Shift, so you definitely got a bargain!
on a side note. Here's 2 fighter games that you shouldn't get:
Guilty Gear Core. Every character is TOO different. It's difficult to play, and everything is just annoying.
Battle Fantasia. Not enough characters. Not enough good story. Just lacking in pretty much everything.
Luckily I only payed about £10 for them. So it's not a HUUUGE loss...

... But I like the Guilty Gear games lol, they were really fun to play!

And yeah, Battle Fantasia just looked wank back then, and still looks wank now, lol.
 
Meh Guilty gear was just too. meh.
I use the guy with the pool stick, he's fun.
and yeh. Battle Fantasia is just like a danger wank... where you get caught...
