Purchased Resident Evil on Gamecube today. I loved it on my PS1 back in the day, but the revamped graphics makes it even more awesome.

This topic's so dead right now.

Pinned it because reasons, though.

Go ahead, fgts, share with us, what've you been playing, lately?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As some of you may know I played both Kingdom Hearts collections for the PS3. And good god, I loved it. Every second of it was worth it.
Amazing games (except for chain of memories, fuck cards). You may think they're childish because of the disney characters, but they are really interesting, even the ones you might hate, end up being really helpful in the story. The story is for all audiences so you won't find double-sense jokes or anything like that, the humor is very childish, but what matters here is the journey, and how emotional it is. And how the games link together.
I can't even explain the story, since it's too complex to just talk about one thing after another. There's a lot of stuff going on during your journey.


Right now I'm playing Resonance of Fate. I think it's considered a hidden gem, or something, because it's not too popular. You can see because there's not much info about the story online, and proper guides are hard to find (I don't use'em though).
It has a nice plot. Not sure about the storytelling yet, since I'm still not too deep into the game. I'm just at chapter 7 (Every chapter has one mandatory mission/dungeon) out of 16 (I think). 28 hours of gameplay, so far.
Why is it? Well, because leveling up isn't all that easy. It has a complex system. I may write something about it, see if I make you guys get interested.
It's a JRPG, with a system that's a mix of a shooter, turn based RPG and action RPG.
It's fun.

JRPGS.............. i miss those, the last good jrpg apart from Pokemon that i played was lost odyssey at first i hated it, but then after giving it a chance the story grew on me and i started to care or at least like the characters, my one regret is that i never finished it, due to the fact i went on holiday and couldn't play it



i should really be playing assassins creed syndicate or all the other games i got for Christmas but instead of that I've been playing the escapists and wwe 2k16, so far i have enjoyed my time with the escapists which isn't surprising since i loved that national geographic show called break out, and the is really a lot like that show, you can go about normal prison life or you can plot a daring escape, and for the five hours i have spent playing the game i haven't managed to escape yet

Playing some action and adventures : Darksiders 2, Hitman Absolution, Transformers War For Cybertron and some Metro Last Light

Other than these , I really am enjoying Life Is Strange, the story is so freaking deep. Also Ori and the blind forest. Its a very nice game, try it. And just like Ori, there is another one called Trine 3.

give the last 3 games I mentioned a try. Ori and Trine are side scrolling but totally worth the time.

Currently playing Rise of the Tomb Raider and Evolva. It's an old third person action game where you control 4 aliens and make them evolve as you wish using the genes of other life forms you killed, the concept is original and the game is pretty hard at times which makes it interesting, check it out if you can.

Touhou, basically anything related. If you don't know it, look it up.

It's a series of bullet hell shooter games, made by the one man team known as Shanghai Alice, whose only member is ZUN. This guy makes the games all by himself. From the art, to the coding, to the music. The dude isn't the best at drawing but his characters have a huge fandom and tons of fanart (the latter fix his faults at drawing and make them look better and more well proportioned)

Don't let yourself be fooled by the cute anime girls in this game. It's a huge challenge, and a test to your eyes and hands, due to the ridiculous skill needed to evade your enemies' attacks. There's very silly conversations between the protagonists and the various bosses, too.

The girls in my current avatar and signature are from a Touhou fan animation (pretty well done, too).

i am currently playing yo kai watch, it's a pretty charming game that is a lot like pokemon except that the battles are not turn-based and are pretty much automated bar a few special moves and giving your yo-kai health potions however that's not to say that the game isn't fun it still has a light layer of strategy and a fun story and entertaining and humorous characters so far I'd give it a 7/ten




and before i stared playing yo kai watch i played sunset overdrive i cant recommend that game enough it's like tony hawks, jet set radio and 3rd person shooter had a baby my only gripe with the game was that there wasn't more of it 9/10

Just finished Tales of the World: Radiant Mythology.

A lotta fun, a catchy story and pretty interesting. Got me into the Tales series.
K.

I'm Playing like five games at a time, right now. Let's list'em and have a small review on'em.

Drakengard 3: A mix of a hack and slash and a JRPG. It's violent, it's funny and it's really good. Has some framerate issues which is strange, considering it doesn't have realistic graphics. They're not ugly, but they're not extremely detailed, they have a cel-shaded anime feel to'em.

It's a nice game, it has some mid-gameplay dialogues that are fun to listen to. Most are your character (the chick with the silver-blonde hair i used to have as a signature and avatar) being a total bitch (in more than one way). She's promiscuous, bloodthirsty and mean as fuck.

I hear it has a great story behind all the crazyness of the characters and situations.

You have 4 weapon options according to my researches, yet I have unlocked just one, which leaves me at two.

It has some sidequests that you can do between missions for points and extra items.

Shadow of the Colossus: From the 2 pack with Ico for the PS3, I have only beaten two of the big guys and it's been a beautiful experience so far.

I'm playing along with my girlfriend so it's on hold due to holidays, lol.

The horse riding is fucking annoying, YET for some reason adds to the experience.

Tears to Tiara 2: More of a visual novel. I'm on the first part so I had just one portion of gameplay, and it was quite short. I don't get the gameplay just yet. I know it's a turn-based strategy RPG.

The strongest point of it is the story. I'm intrigued by the little I've seen so far.

The disc version comes with a small artbook and an old-school booklet (colored and with detailed gameplay info (which i haven't read yet))

AKIBA's TRIP: Undead and Undressed: The title sounds weird and yes, it is a weird game. I have none of the story figured out yet.

All I know is your character (which you have the option to have called a default japanese name or give him a name of your creation (I called him "Retard")) has been kidnapped by some sort of (new world) organization (of wrestling, brother) and they have turned him into some sort of zombie/vampire who is highly affected by sunlight, the only way to protect yourself from the evil sun are, of course clothes. If you're stripped of them, u ded.

This is the fun/weird part. You've been saved by a mysterious girl, who sets you free, she ends up going to your friends' "base" with you, and meets your "crew". Now, there's more people with that zombification/vampirization shit out there, and they're after you. The only way to defeat'em is stripping them of their clothes. Triangle weakens their headwear, circle (or square, i don't remember lol) weakens their shirt/jacket/whatever, and X weakens their lower clothing, after weakening them enough you can perform certain actions to strip those and leave'em exposed to sunlight. You have weapons available and clothes, which you can find, buy or strip from your enemies.

Yakuza 4: This game, is freaking awesome. It's some sort of Japanized GTA in some way, except you don't use vehicles at all, except for Taxis. I hear it's alike to Sleeping Dogs, but i've never played that so I can't tell.

I have only completed about two chapters but the game is quite deep.

You have hundreds and hundreds of sidequests and activities to complete along with the story. Karaoke, Restaurants, Pool, Pole Dancing places, Those places where you pay for company (not sex, just a fun chat with a girl (It's Japan, goddamit)) and a lot more i haven't discovered.

The battle system is really fun, there's different actions you can do with your surroundings and you can upgrade and improve your figting skills with every encounter.

There's also a lot of sidequests in the street and a lot of random conversations with people who guide you or hint what you can do in the city.

There's four characters in the game but I have only played with one, so far.

Totally looking forward to getting Yakuza 5, eventually.



I have games that i have yet to play like

Tales of Graces: After playing Tales of the World on the PSP i really wanted a Go with a game for the PS3, and this one really caught my attention.

Ni No Kuni: Written and designed by Studio Ghibly, of fucking course this will be a worthy experience. I am sure I'm gonna like this thing.

Yes, I have gone full Weaboo.
