GGT 67: Transcending History and the World; A Tale of Souls & Swords Eternally Retold

Played a bit of SCIV. I tried Arcade with Vader to beat the Apprentice (Cheap SOB), gave up, tried to import a save, but due to Update 1.01, wouldn't allow it, so I had to start over. I'm guessing Trophies might be inbound. Otherwise I don't see the point of them doing this.
After trying again, beat Story Mode with Ivy and first 4 floors of Tower of Souls. I feel the menu is kind of clunky, and Character Creation takes A LOT of unlocking to even try, which I feel is sort of lame. But I might be doing it wrong.

Nothing too exciting since the last one was pretty... bad.

I want a follow up to Soul Hackers..
 
Oh yea, I actually had a good deal/pickup! First time in awhile.

I got the PSTwo Singstar Bundle (Ceramic White PSTwo + Singstar game/mics) for $69.99 new at Best Buy here in SD.

Yay. Gonna throw a modchip in it and call it a day.

I'm not sure if Honors mean Trophies are in bound. It just might be used to unlock equipment in CAS.

I'm still having the same problem with SCIV as with every other fighter... I have a hard time doing anything that involves a diagonal.
 
The online is a bit crap in SC4.. even 4 bar matches turn into delay filled attack fests. Anyone who uses a fast enough character is guaranteed the win online unless it's perfect conditions, it seems. Reacting with most defensive measures has too much of a delay to apply.

Maybe they'll patch it sometime. It doesn't help that probably 18 out of the 20 tries I had to use quick match just told me "This match is full" well why the fuck did the game put me in the match if it's full?

Not a bad game, otherwise. Need to spend more time with Xianghua.

Hasn't Atlus already sent out a teaser hinting at its US release? It was a splash page with the cat from Devil Summoner on it. I have to agree with whoever said it, the last game was bad. Hopefully they improve this one considerably.
 
Morning GGT. I should be signed up to Xbox Live now, really. Let's just say that I still don't like Microsoft's interfaces -_-

Made a new blog post this morning. Nothing exciting; just what I've been playing.

Will hopefully finish Z&W today.

As a self proclaimed Megaten whore, I can say without a doubt that I will not buy this if it's anything like the original. It was that bad.

SC4 is kewl.

I was gonna spend my morning and afternoon submitting another massive batch of resumes and covor letters when...

sum doods called me and offered me a job! I already interviewed with them and their industry is related to where I wanna be so now it's official!

I'll probably get it. I did think the 1st one was ok. All the game needed was a little more little work...

I need to put together some cover letters and revised resumes, to send out for my next batch. I'm kind of in a difficult situation TBH.

I just played a little Warriors Orochi today. Still waiting for SCIV.

seriously

before i had a job
i had no idea what a "backlog" was...
 
Congrats Jekki. And yeah, work really cuts into game time.

I've done very little gaming this week because I've had my hands full with several projects. Gonna spend a little time with FFX now and then go to sleep.

Tomorrow I will probably be getting that SCIV unless I talk myself out of it.
 
gratz JEKKI.

I spent about 45 minutes trying to DL that stupid PS3 firmware update. Damn thing kept cutting out on me.

At least I got in some WoW beforehand. :p
 
Picked up Halo 1 over the weekend to see what all the fuss was about. Pretty average as a shooter, but I do like the story. I'm really close to the end so I'll probably finish it up tonight.
 
I just beat Zack & Wiki. Fell back on Oracle Dolls a couple of times, but that's because I was in some really tight spots.
And even after seeing the ending and epilogue, I'm still not sure as to what exactly Wiki is (besides a flying monkey bell), or what his purpose is.
 
All right, I finally have SCIV. Sorry for being late to the party.

I should visit TMK if I'm ever in the area. It would be like how at the end of the movie Timecop

The same matter cant take up the same space at the same time. _MK PARADOX
 
so im talkin to this dude on another forum and seems to think ninja gaiden 2 is a 3d platformer and his 9 year old daughter can beat 3 levels and its not an action game

".. its a 3d platformer.. no puzzles... no other things not even a REAL combo system.. or strategic use of weapons... its a hack and slash..."

i tried explaining to him but man he just wont get it...

[/QUOTE]You'd be playing PS3/360 w/ me if you came over on my nice TV. ;)

I played a little bit of SCIV. Pretty cool, but need to play more.
 
[quote name='nyprimus4']There was a black guy standing next to me on the train platform today that I could have sworn was TMK.[/quote]

That's because....


Anyway, I played some Eternal Sonata. Why have I ignored you this long?

HA!

What up GGT?

Just got back from
American Idols LIVE

I'm such a lady.

Squeeeee! I saw Michael Johns!
 
I take the train in to Queens and then a subway deeper into Queens and about 90% of people on the train/subway are black but this guy looked just like TMK.

edit: Geo Wars 2 is a skip as I haven't even delved into the first one. I got a good deal when I got GeoWars1 at Target ($5 card) and used a $10 off coupon. Braid is looking to be must have 800 or 1200 points, that could certainly change.

This sucks.
I love SCIV, but the online just isn't working for me.
I keep getting online errors, but I'm never signed out and all the PSN stuff (store, etc.) are working perfectly.

at least try the demo!

also i got geo wars 2 completely free thank u car challenge :p
 
My backlog is tremendous so what do I do? E-mail a guy who is selling an Xbox 360 package on craigslist and has the Bioshock Limited Edition. I asked for pictures of the Bioshock LE and told him I have $40 cash if the pictures are good enough. If everything isn't perfect I'll offer up $30.

When I bought it last year I remember having a huge debate with getting the LE or not. Then that great TRU deal came where I got Madden 08 cheap, and I got Bioshock a week early, cheap too as well.

I want to get Bioshock LE, Mass Effect LE (its rare right?), and the Ace Combat sticks before they are impossible to find. I think 360 is my favorite system ever (I was never a umm... "hardcore"... umm "gamer" until I was searching for an Xbox 360 in 2005 then found the teamxbox forums then through TXB I found CAG) and I want the hard to find games so I have them in the future.

Are there any other "rare" things I should take into consideration getting before its too late and they won't be available for less then 300% markup?

Weird. I dunno, I haven't seen anyone close to looking like me.

Indiana and Jamaica, Queens are worlds apart. :lol:
 
I'd like the Ace Combat sticks myself. I'd want it even more if I find it works with the upcoming Sturmovik port.
 
OH HOT DAMN!
I think I just realized its not working because my connection is NAT3...maybe?
I guess it changed when we got the new router....
