While waiting for UMvC3 I've been trying to get that near impossible (to me) trophy for doing 320 missions out of 380. At the mo I've finished all of Hulk's, Spencer's, Hagger's and Taskmaster's with about 260 in total completed.

Still hopeless with the stick and don't seem to be improving at all, my stick motions have improved greatly but I feel my button tapping hand is doing something wrong. Its hard enough for me to call assists in mission mode and impossible in an actual fight for example. Maybe I might just have low dexterity

Out of the old characters I'll be using in UMvC3 will most likely be Taskmaster as I love the simplicity of his moveset, no fancy stuff but he gets the job done and thats what I like. I've heard the changes in Ultimate will benefit zoners which is great news.

FONV Old world blues: Finally after the meh performances of the previous two dlcs we have what is in my opinion a first class piece of content . There is like an hour of talking at the start if you enjoy listening to the mad scientists voices like I do and don't just read the text but its all cool.
In the end I took the really nice option by proclaiming that I was the mighty Dr Mobius and ordering the other Scientists to surrender or face death from Scorpion related injuries.

Though I did steal Mobius's Mentat stash so I don't think the happy ending is going to last long .

Demon's Souls: Got this at last as everyone raves about it all the time as the best game ever because its so hard and all that jazz. I quite enjoy these types of games thankfully so its actually lived up to its hype thus far though the horrible character creation and the useless armour in the game stop it from being a personal fav.

Oh yeah I'd like to mention I did end up purchasing Nier little while back as it was cheap and you guys and few others had such a high opinion of it when I said I didn't like it a while back. After playing it myself I'll admit that the voice acting and story are top notch especially on New game +, the music is good but some tracks are too overused, the game is too easy and the puzzle elements, item and combat system of the game are complete crap. I finished it four times and my final verdict on it is: Yeah its alright

Mass Effect 2: Finished with everyone alive, how is this hard? Besides the escort part its all pretty clear cut who you should choose. Used Legion&Jack for the final boss and gave the base to TIM for all his hard work because the way I see it can only turn out a couple of ways.

1: Like a surprising large amount of human supremacists he is actually a giant piece of shit (Reaper in this case) that strings humans along so they can kill all the other Reapers.
2: He really hates all aliens except when it comes to sexy time so when the Reapers have been dealt with he backstabs you and attempts to wipe out all Alien life with some kind of Giant killer human shaped robot.
3: He uses the Collectors seeker swarm to kidnap humans so he can upgrade them to Bio mutants/Cybermen.
4: He is actually an alright dude and uses the tech to own the reapers and then retires to earth as his job is done.

Glad I chose this over Dragon Age and ME3 seems like its going to be a day one buy for me.

Sorry about that Sopko, I usually mark them so I have no idea why I didn't mark those.

That whole plot twist of John being the Beast makes Kessler's plan fucking retarded and pretty much makes the plot of the first game pointless. So many fucking questions. Was John still the Beast in the original timeline? If so, did the activation of his powers do the same thing?

I think its the usual thing that if you try to fix things through time travel you just make things worse. I assume Kessler wanted to activate Coles powers several years before the beast activated his but he didn't count on John who he didn't know was the beast being there
Could have been a different dude in Kessler's time as they do look slightly different.
His powers seem to have been much greater Kessler's time as he cracked the moon and all

There was no mention of a plague there either.

The Plague was handled badly in both games as it just pops in at the end of 2 and is a dropped subplot in 1. Also I'm sure they say the plague was caused by Sasha in 1 but then suddenly it was Radiation?

The opening sequence needed NOT to be a tutorial, and give you all the powers you had in the first game, or at least the basics. Pretty much ruined what it could have been.

Yeah it was all pretty underwhelming. Made no sense why you didn't at least have rockets.

Infamous 2: Spoilers for evil path.

Did the poor Evil ending for the game which is shockingly harder then the good as Nix is somehow tougher then The Beast and that red doctor Manhattan wannabe is useless as shit. Then the killing of Zeke was so sad even evil murder Cole doesn't want to do it. Then the beast is all like "Hey Cole I'm tried of killing millions of people so why don't I give you my power so you can do it" which is bullshit and only happens so they can pull off Cole=The Beast.
The ending is so bad Infamous 3 should be you playing as Kessler and beating sense into evil Cole.

Rorona: So this game is 12+ on box but contains a character that is both a pedophile and a rapist of women. What? And people don't stop this crazed sex beast because its the victims responsibility to stop it happening. What? Oh Japan
Still Loling at randoms as Sterkenburg does 300ish damage on average while randoms have 100-150 hp.

Infamous 2 - Got the good ending as evil paths in Infamous just involve a lot of blind murder which I dislike. The final battle while easy was just how I like them as the whole city including your enemies start bombarding The Beast to slow him down enough so you could activate the RFI. The Rebels having a navy was a little odd but it added to the scene as they attacked The Beast from land and sea.

SPOILERS

A shame they kill off Bertrand though. The man had major flaws and as he himself said the lures of Satan had consumed but I feel after he became a superhuman that could transform into a giant pile of shit he truely thought he was doing things for the good of mankind, transforming some people into monsters was to him merely a way to control the people so he could better protect them. Also him dying means we miss out on Bertrand going toe to toe with The Beast to protect Humanity.

I think his sword has to overcome your DT to knock you down, cause I've never seen it happen to me.

Never read anything about that myself and I can't find any info on the matter. I'd test it myself but I'm sure some PC player will pit them against themselves on youtube soon anyway and we'll see then.

Infamous 2 - Anyone who says Infamous 1 is better then 2 is mad pure and simple. Most fun I've had in a sandbox game and the mission maker is great. Yes it has its limits but with the era we're in I'm sure they'll add in much more in the future to expand it.

The Burned Man's base DT is 50. I don't think there is anything in the entire game that could kill him except for the Courier.

Let's not even get in to the possibility of reverse-pickpocketing power armor and morphine on to him. Would push it up into the low 90s.

As far as I know its impossible to pickpocket him unless some mod on the PC allows you to. Tested it myself and he instantly turned around and started talking.
The fight wouldn't be quite as clear cut as you make it out I think as Lanius does have near three times Joshua's HP and his sword can cause knockdowns meaning with luck he could win. Of course Lanius can barely scratch Joshua so he still takes it.

Rorona: I fear I might not be able to max out everyone but I worry too much. Currently using Sterkenburg as the dudes a murdermachine.

Fallout NV Honest Hearts - Still a laggy mess even with all the latest patchs but thankfully my save file seems to have stopped increasing in size as it stopped at 10Mb.

The Burned Man seems to be a pretty cool guy though its doubtful you'll be able to take him back to NV though which is a shame as I'd love some Legate vs Legate action. My money would be on the burned man as his pistol "The light in the darkness" packs quite a punch and Lanius is a close combat fighter.

Rozalia, I think you ask the wrong question.
What I found to be the most ridiculous among the plot is how the hell the SPOILER made through the gate when you.. well, just killed him?

Maybe. If you're talking about the final boss then I just ran with it being one of those fights were the bad dude says that it didn't count and he is going to do what you were trying to prevent regardless.

Streets of rage 2 - Got this for free on PSN+ and I played a ton of people online and I am disappointed. 95% of people are Blaze users and can't handle the power of the PIPE or a Bare Knuckle (Get the Car!) to the face.

The SWAT thing is the only thing not really explained.

How about Maeda correctly guessing the name of the race of the badguys?  

Maeda was*ALWAYS* a creep in that regard.  Half of his plot in PE1 was about him being obsessed with Aya.

Yeah but at least the dialogue was not quite that rapey if thats a word. Now he says crap like "I bet your tears taste so sweet" all the while Aya smiles makes me think Maeda has transformed into Dr Klamp.
Yes I've heard the whole he was shy and couldn't speak properly thing before but I don't buy it personally. Not to say I dislike Maeda and his rapist voice at all of course, always gives me a chuckle.

Where do you get Pedo from though?

Just that scene where he talks above Eve and says something like "Your DNA in a nubile young body" with the little laugh at the end.

Peco: 10/10 Haters be hating on my boy Peco.
Garr: 3/10 Is Ryu except he has worse attack, speed, options, appearance, no dragon forms, no blue hair and...actually he is not like Ryu at all my mistake but a crappy physical attacker with lol worthy magic.

3rd Birthday related text

I'd personally just like to know what the Swat guys were doing. Were they the local swat team celebrating Aya's wedding in a unique fashion but some idiot loaded real bullets, the umbrella corporation afraid Aya would go after their genetic freaks next or is Toriyama just a really shity writer?
Also why were all the guests outside the locked church while the final boss chillaxed inside? Why is Maeda a creepy pedo rapist now, why was Hunter "Boss" Owen suddenly killed for no reason and why were *rambles on*. Good read as always but I think you're being too kind on the game.

Star Ocean the last hope - So I crush 4 wings queen with ease and then procede to face 6 wings. Of course in true Star Ocean tradition the game freezes wasting 5 hours I'll never get back. Sad how Tri-Ace bonus area's aren't scary due to their enemies but the likelihood of it freezing on you.

Plating a lot of games this month as PSN is down.

Bayonetta: Great game and I have no complaints with it, combat is the best I've seen of this type of game and unlike those other games Bayonetta has a huge amount of variety in its enemy list.
Plat wasn't too hard and it was very enjoyable and thats worth something as there are few games I can tolerate playing playing three times in a row.

Dynasty Warriors 7: Best DW to date which Koei will hopefully build well on instead of doing their usual tactic. Plat was easy but grindy so not much joy involved at the end. Mains were:

Zhang Liao: C3EX is the best EX attack without question as it turns Liao into a Speed demon who dishs out huge damage and is virtually untouchable. Also because he is THE ZHANG LIAO, you know the guy who scared Wu so badly he basically became a demon to the Wu people and required being shot in the Junk (A mans only weakspot) before he went down.

Zhong Hui: Do the enemy not value their officers? Then maybe they shouldn't be sending them against me! Why people hate him I really don't know. "But he sounds so obnoxious and arrogant" I hear the haters say forgetting that this is what Koei were obviously going for, hell he has a unique convo with Yuan Shao to show how even the massively arrogant Yuan Shao considers him too arrogant.
*Cough* Anyway got sidetracked. The Flying swords are pretty broken and his Specials are easily comboed making him the 3rd/4th best fighter.

Heavy Rain: Didn't care for Ethan too much as he was quite boring to watch, Madison had fan-service but she felt unimportant, Scott was an overweight ninja who was immune to gunfire and thus was badass but the best guy to me was Norman Jayden the FBI man. His parts featured the most fights and the crime scene parts were great for what they were but what really makes him the best is his interaction with Carter Blake who is a policemen who'd properly beat the crap out you for speeding. Plat was easy but the constant replies weared me out a bit.

Batman AA: Doesn't disappoint. The thing I heard at some points back when it was released was about fights in hard mode dragging out but that must have been those complaining people not having a grasp on how criticals activate. With them even 10 goons are laid to waste in under a minute by Batman.

PS3 is back and running after much DIY on my part. I replaced the laser but then I got hit with a drive problem for my troubles, to my delight though it just wasn't put in properly so I easily fixed it. So I then turn the thing on seeing that games work again and try signing in online to be shown the word /ERROR/ on screen. I quickly get scared as I might have somehow damaged my PS3 in my DIY but after looking online its just some server problem. Meh I'm just glad the things working at this point.

DW7 - Got all seals, 57 sworn allies, 8 max bonds, all weapons and all stages cleared. Took me freaking (I use the word all the time online) forever.

DDS1 - I popped this in while waiting for my laser and wasted (With ease) the Lord of flies second form. I really need to just complete this so I can move on to DDS2 hard mode and waste that green fat tentacle tits.

I cracked open the ps3 and sorted the misaligned drive but still nothing on disc reading. Ps1 games don't seem to work either meaning its looking like the laser has up and died on me which is just frustrating. I've had half a dozen problems with Sony's black monolith but as they were mostly software problems and I have backed up data they have been easy to fix and a mere annoyance. A laser failure is very annoying and it means I'll have to open the thing up again which is never a nice thing for me to do.

Think I'll go play some SMT1 and hope I don't screw myself out of an ending.

My brother ruined one of my Ps3 controllers so I had to get a new one, meh I can afford it even though I just lost my job. After playing co-op DW7 for a couple of hours the game freezes, well it happens I'll just turn the system off and put it back on. Wait a sec why isn't it reading the game? Could be the system files so I check them and they are corrupted so I restore them and still nothing. Guess I'll be buying a lens cleaner but considering the bad luck I've had lately I doubt it'll work.

*Signs* Maybe I should trade the thing in considering all the problems its had and I've had to fix. Annoying s I wanted to use the money to get the currently lackluster 3ds.

Dynasty warriors - Finished all the storys and the Jin ending is pretty nice though I feel sorry for the three kingdom guys as it seems like after death the likes of Guan Yu, Zhang Liao spend their time in hell fighting each other. Yeah I'm sure its a visual thing but it sure looks like they're in hell fighting each other.

Jin Kingdom is one of the worst ideas ever however. Nobody on the Jin roster is actually part of Jin, they're all late era Wei officers mostly. I mean why would Xiahou Ba a Wei loyalist who fearing Sima Yi's power joined Shu to have them get rid of Sima be part of the Jin kingdom? Also the new characters for the most part are good choices such as Deng Ai though I don't agree with his design and the fact he kills people with armbars but some of the choices are terrible. To begin with they added in Guan Yu's fictional son which is bad in itself but then they feel the need to include said Fictional son's fictional wife too? What?

Also where is He Man the devil who shoots across the stars and who by the power of the way of peace has the POWER! For that matter where is Lu Kang, Sima Wang, Dong Tuna, Dong Chao and all the other great officers of the time.

In response to Scar DW7 goes back to the charge system so it now plays like how DW5 did but it still has things like skills from DW6 and a few other things such as seals.
The multiplayer is conquest mode only and be done both offline and online. Conquest is just loads of missions so if you're starting it from scratch with a buddy its quite good however if you've already done it all then you're essentially doing just skirmish levels.

Did the Wu story and while I dislike all those Wusers I have to say I now really like Sun Quan. He knows he is a coward so strives to become the most badass coward alive which he achieves as he owns the mighty Zhang Liao by having his allies block both Liao's weapons and then stabs Liao in the chest killing him which was as Liao himself said "Excellent".

Then in the ending:

*Sun Quan Picks up his extreamely well endowed wife*
*Walks towards a dozen of his male commanders all the while giving a good hearty laugh*
Sun Quan: Men, let us enjoy this.
*Men cheer*
*Roll credits*

......Well they do say Wu is all about Family, love and shar....Wait a minute. Liu Bei and Cao Cao both die in their ending while failing in uniting the land but Sun Quan lives and then has a sex orgy to celebrate?
Best version of Sun Quan ever.

Dynasty warriors 7 - *Sheds tear* They at last after 20 or so games finally did a decent job with the story mode and people say the video-game industry is in decline. If Koei can succeed at doing something right for once then there is hope for everybody.

I've done Shu and Wei's story as I'm saving Jin for last and I don't like the Wusers. Its nice to see that they stick to the story and don't go into the bullshit the other games go into like in DW5 where Shu wins at Wu Zhang plains and then somehow Wu and Wei are both destroyed in the process. The Wei story in particular was better as in the Shu one they keep harping on about benevolence.

Favorite battle so far is the battle of He Fei simply for the quotes the enemy soldiers make during it. The Wusers shit their pants at seeing Zhang Liao tear their forces to shreds. Speaking of Zhang Liao he is broken to the extream having both a crowd clearer and boss killer special with one of the best EX attacks in the game.

Parasite Eve The Third Birthday: Got this on release day and finished it quickly as the game is criminally short (5 hours or so) and after enduring that horrible plot I have to say Toriyama needs to get fired/demoted for his pathetic writing. The amateur plot holes are just inexcusable. I can overlook plot holes if there was some thought into the story and the writer just got overambitious and everything is a silly mess as in all that text its easy to make a mistake but Toriyama doesn't have that. Its a simple story and yet he gets some of the simplest things wrong.

Lets see the ones I can think off the top of my head.

1: Its a wedding and yet the guests are all outside locked out of the church except the big bad who is inside chilling out on bench enjoying the proceedings. According to the game Aya didn't know the big bad at that point so why is he in the church when her "friends" aren't?
2: So Aya is getting married yet no sign of Daniel, Rupert and the rest of her friends she'd trust with her life? But those other dudes she knew for all of 10 seconds (and the villain she'd never met) can attend? Makes no sense.
3: Who hired the Swat (!?!) team? Now this while kick starting the plot is overall a minor detail however it most simply be addressed. Even a throwaway line in the datalog such as "Ark corp hired them to kill Aya in revenge as their army of super soldiers were too crap to do the job themselves" would have done perfectly. Instead nothing so why did they do it? Some like to spin the big bad did it but he was a good guy at the time so that doesn't fly.
4:Hunter "boss" Owen. That cut scene at the end of chapter 2 seemed to set him up for a big scene and then *POOF* magically dead and never seen again or referred to.
5: Cray's daughter.

Then for the simply retarded bits:

1: TIME TRAVEL
2: THE TWISTED
3: THE HIGH ONES
4: KYLE
5: EVE
6: THE WHOLE ENTIRE ENDING
--------------------------------------
Now for the non crap bits.

1: He actually explained why Aya is now suddenly so weak and it wasn't the memory loss.
2: Maeda is looking good and I get laughs out of his rapist like dialogue and voice. He is also now Japanese Dr Klamp.
3: Gameplay while generic for the most part I found funner then most games of this type for some reason. Not sure why.

The bad outweighs the good by quite a large margin which is a shame as I really wanted the game to be good. PE2 wasn't exactly a masterpiece and it received a fair bit of slagging off but I quite like it personally as it isn't offensive and it makes complete sense for the most part. Third Birthday is just jibba jabba.

*Spoilers in the final bosses section*

Yakuza 4: Finished this yesterday and it was superb though it suffers from a decrease in difficulty which is bad as Y3 was easy itself and it was has lackluster bosses. Seriously 80% of the bosses are just upgraded generics that have more health and so little feature to slightly set them apart like super armour or an unbreakable weapon which is overall not that impressive as you'll beat them like rag dolls regardless.

Final bosses:

So the heroes bait all the villains into the open so they can have a manly one on one shirtless battle on a skyscraper because that is what manly men do. To the bait the villains Akiyama uses his 100 billion yen which is what 1 billion dollars, then to spit in the villains faces he blows the money off the top of the building making it rain money in tokyo. Akiyama's response to now being poor again? No problem I'll just make more, its not a hard thing.

Akiyama vs Arai: Akiyama is a kick dude, Arai is a kick dude, who is the supreme kick dude? Akiyama of course. His triple finish owns Arai like it does any other chump on the street. When Arai gets low on health he can counter with a powerful punch attack but sadly for him it comes too late. Not only is too late but Akiyama possesses the dodge combo+ skill meaning his counter is being evaded anyway.

Saejima vs Kido: Saejima is a punchy dude, Kido is a punchy dude, who is the supreme punchy dude? Saejima of course. Kido seems to have taken lessens from Mine (Final boss of Y3) as he fights much like Mine did however there is a vast difference between the two. Mine had 3 health bars to kido's 2, Mine had attacks with a good dosage of super armor while Kido seems to have none and if he does Saejima's attacks cancel super armour on most enemies any way and finally and most damaging of all Mine had super defence against heat actions meaning he took very little damage from them, Kido on the other hand like all the bosses in this game doesn't have that meaning a clothesline from Saejima can take like 80% of a health bar away from kido. Kido's pro is he can not be hit while healing himself but that pro doesn't outway the cons.

Kazuma vs Daigo: Kazuma is a Balanced dude, Daigo is a balanced dude, who is the supreme balanced dude? Kazuma of course. The plot leading into this fight is just stupid. Daigo is all like "I'd never think I'd have to fight you Kazuma and I know full well you're a man who'd survive a nuke being dropped on and you have the fighting ability to take on a whole army with just your fists but even though I'm outclassed several millions of times over lets have a manly battle to decide this". Daigo is as you'd think, completely pathetic. Nothing really special about him except his counter move which does trashy damage anyway.

Tanimura vs Munakata.........and a dozen elite riot police: Tanimura is a technical dude, Munakata is a cowardly dude, who is the supreme technical cowardly dude? Oh wait sorry these guys aren't mirrors of each other like the others.
This is the hardest fight and to put it clearly:

1: Tanimura is the weakest character in damage and health.
2: The riot officers have a lot of health considering how many of them there are.
3: Munakata is constantly firing very accurate bullets at you from the very back of the stage.
4: There is at all times at least half a dozen dudes attacking you from every direction.
5: If you try to evade Mukakata the riot dudes will grab you so their buddies can kick you to the ground and then proceed to beat the shit out of you.
6: If you try to beat the riot dudes by parrying and so forth Munakata will shoot you so you fall on the ground and then his bum chums will beat the piss out of you.

The ending sets it all up for a more violent sequel which I'll look forward to.

Dissidia 012: Only played the first chapters but it seems the plot is far improved and not stale as stale biscuits. It also has more kefka which is always good. Really liking Vaan and now that I've given him a shirt its all good.

Yakuza 4: Took me a while to find his subquests but his part is all done now. He isn't as special as Akiyama but he has his good points. His attacks have such force they very easily ground/wall bounce enemies leading into his devastating heat moves that do HUUUUGGGGE amounts of damage (Some are like twice Akiyama's), being able to grab those fat dudes as well means they're reduced to just a big target. Weaknesses are of course the short rush combos, snail like attack speed and bad recovery on virtually all his moves which doesn't help as he has the worst dodging in the game.
In regards to his part of the game I have to say I prefer Akiyama but Saejima isn't too bad a character and his main substory really shows what kind of man he is. Oh yeah I also did the fighter maker sidequest and got Hideo Kojima to win the fighting tornament.

Bosses:

Saito: Look at me I'm a boss dude with an infinite loop that I may or may not decide to use. Of course the AI will never chain it enough to kill you but its frustrating when he does it twice or so and takes a nice amount of health with it. You also face this guy three times and pretty much every time he has loads of dudes who's job seems to be grabing you so Saito can beat the crap out of you. Why they gave a sadistic prison guard unique attacks I have no idea.

Kazuma: Yes Kazuma now sports a nice boss form in Y4. Oddly though his plot power is little Akiyama would rape Kazuma completely but Saejima who is a legendary fighter struggles massively as virtually all his atttacks can be tiger droped by Kazuma. Quite fitting I'd say as Saejima's first name is Taiga, his tattoo being of a tiger and Kazuma's counter move being Tiger drop. Took me a few trys to beat old Kazy as Saejima's lol attack speed really held me back.

Daisuku 2.00: Same deal except instead of spewing Sake he now spews FIRE! Still easy but holds up better against Saejima then he did against Akiyama.

The one eyed Wizard of the arena, Mad dog Majima: First boss that could be considered on the level of the Y3 ones which is good as its Majima we're talking about. Has overall less health but in return gained a new move in Knife hurricane which doesn't help much as its pretty naff unless for some reason you don't have the skill that allows you to block blade attacks which then it'll rape you. When in heat mode he becomes unhitable as Saejima is simply too slow and his recovery is so bad Majima is pretty much certain to hit his counter attack.

Pretty sad it takes this long to reach a boss that can put up a semblance of a fight. Y3 hit you with Tamoshiro (The third boss in chapter  3) who due to low level skills and the player no doubt still not fully familer with everything absolutly raped you till you got everything about his heat mode form down. In this game you just curb everything with ease which is disapointing.
