Well?
This topic is locked from further discussion.
The Phantom Pain, Metal Gear Solid 1 and on/off Pokemon SoulSilver.
Also playing Football Manager 2016, but that's really a perennial affair.
I'm really in a Metal Gear mood these days, so I'm thinking of doing a re-playthrough of Metal Gear Solid 1 and 2 on my Vita once I'm done with MGS1. I might get burned out in the middle of the marathon, but that's what I've got planned anyway.
Also thinking of replaying FF6 if I get the time between all this... sigh, too many games to play, not enough time.
You can't possibly be playing all those at once.

He plays most of the Ninty games, i'm jelly :P

Is it your fav game? :)
I wouldn't say favourite, but I'm always playing Football Manager, year-round. It's very addictive, and also appeals to the football fanatic in me (soccer for American plebs). I have clocked in over 300 hours in each of the past four releases (50 or so in 2016).

Always, mate. Always :P
I'm playing
- Rise of The Tomb Raider (PC): Hands down one of the best games I've ever played.
- Replaying Call of Duty: World at War (PC) to get my WW2 fix. This game holds up really well too !
- Insurgency (PC): this is my go to online game atm.
- And I'm about to jump into Grey Goo (PC) when the definitive edition launches later today.
Trying to get through it or replaying ?
@R4gn4r0k: Replaying to see if I change my mind.
Spoiler: I haven't, it's worse than I remember, actually.

The best thing about Skyward Sword is that my copy came with the 25th anniversary special orchestra CD :D

Hey, mine too!
And go away, Skyward Sword is very good! >.<
Skyward Sword is mega shit.
On topic: X-Com Enemy Within. Ironman mode on classic. As commander McDuckyswag I have gotten my crew through some tough months. Being able to turn Sarah Conner, Sabrin The Teenage Witch, and Idris Elba into Mecs has been glorious for my unit. But the true MVPs have really been Usain Bolt and Kim Possible just fucking wrecking fools. Unfortunately we lost a lot of quality people along the way. RIP Raven Symone, Yu Suzuki, Jackie Chan, Gordon Bombay, Barry Mcfart.
That death list was looking really bad early, but its been smooth sailing since I got plasma stuff.
That's about it, really
I just put my money down for the Twilight Princess HD Limited Edition, which is also coming with an audio CD. You getting that ?
I thought it would be sold out by now (amiibo craze) but no, I still managed to get a copy. Really nice!
Hey, mine too!
And go away, Skyward Sword is very good! >.<
If the motion controls were just used for the sword fighting, I'd agree with you.
But no, they have to use them for every single menial thing, right down to wiping Link's nose.
If you like how the motion controls are used in this game, I can understand you like it. It really seems like a love it/hate it game.
champ gets it khoof, Skyward Sword is a badly designed game that has some above average sections, and the only reason it gets any attention is because it's from Nintendo, and it's Zelda.
@jg4xchamp: @charizard1605: @R4gn4r0k:+ Excellent dungeon design, good bosses, great combat, excellent music, awesome lore building
- shitty pacing, tacked on motion controls, too much filler content
@R4gn4r0k: I'll get Twilight Princess HD, but I'll probably get it digital, and get the music off of YouTube.
@khoofia_pika: I'll give you music, level design, and story. That'a the extent of my appreciation for Skyward Sword at this point.
Skyward Sword is mega shit.
;__;
Listen I will disagree with no one that a lot of those dungeons are exceptional, it gives Twilight Princess a run for its money in that department. But it is terrible on the tutorializing front, Fi is somehow almost as bad as navi, and **** navi, the motion controls are a complete mixed bag. They aren't precise in the strictest sense, they aren't as consistent as a button press, and the melee combat lacks any depth to make it all that special to begin with. The swimming controls are mega garbage, the dark world stuff thing the game had going on where lame sequences because the last thing I want to do in Zelda is some shitty pseudo stealth, and the ridiculous amount of filler in that game bores me to no end. A fetch quest between every dungeon khoof? really? you really all that fun getting all those tears of bullshit?
I'm gonna copy/paste:
The thing with Skyward Sword is, it's just a bad game. It has terrible controls, poor mechanics, repeated tutorials, broken pacing, a fetch quest before every dungeon, it's awful at trusting the player to do the right thing, and it also completely does away with the sense of agency and freedom that has defined Zelda. It's still got a cool story and soundtrack, as well as some great level design (which no shit, it's a Nintendo game), but ultimately, Skyward Sword is a below average game that only gets attention because it's branded Zelda. I thought I had been unfair to it and went back to it to give it another chance, and no, it's worse than I remember it being. It's simply not a good game, and anyone who actually likes it has way more patience for bullshit and faff in video games than I do.

Agency and freedom hasn't defined Zelda in over a decade.
I'm playing Xenoblade X and just taken my time with it and loving every Moment, 60 hrs in and I've got my Skell those things are so powerful the game is huge MMO size game world I think I could be playing for another 100hrs
I'm also playing Animal Crossing New Leaf

I also very much liked the graphical style.
I really enjoyed the start of the game. But by the time I got to the first boss of this game I was so tired of it. I couldn't take anymore. I really wanted to play a Zelda game, but it felt more like Link doing a bunch of minigames to me than a Zelda game.
@R4gn4r0k: I'll get Twilight Princess HD, but I'll probably get it digital, and get the music off of YouTube.
But the Limited edition is only 10 bucks more than the regular edition. And you get both the Audio CD and the wolf Link amiibo.
If you sell the wolf link amiibo, you'll turn a profit xD
@jg4xchamp: Wind Waker had enough of it. Twilight Princess had enough of it.
It's never been like it used to be in the 2D Zelda days, sure, but you've always had enough freedom to just stop whatever you were doing and go f*ck around in some other part of the world. Even if it was just the illusion of freedom (since the world would still be gated based on your overall progress in the main storyline), it was enough. Skyward Sword is a series of straight lines one after the next, you want a break from this dungeon, the most you can do is revisit a previous, early dungeon, or the sterile, sorry excuse for a hub that was Skyloft, and nothing more.
Maybe it is just an illusion like I said, and I can deal with that. What I can't deal with is literally no break from the game's bullshit. It becomes a drag.
@R4gn4r0k: Yeah, but I'm in India, and finding a physical copy of a Nintendo game here is just a no no, so I have to rely on buying them digital from the eShop.

Oh I see. You have the 32GB system, right ? How many games can you store on it ?
Or have you hooked up an external storage device to you Wii U ?

Agreed about Skyward Sword. I tried to go back to it myself recently, and found out I still didn't like it. I thought the controls were great and the visuals were sweet too. But that was about it. I wanted to play what little good Zelda stuff that game has, but I have to put up with so much other crap it's just not worth the time. First time I played the game, I stopped after about 10 hours. Now, I managed to get pretty far with about 20 hours gametime. But a game I have to force myself to finish just isn't worth it.

Pretty much. I mean don't get me wrong, it has some good stuff (the dungeons, really, and the music as always), but all of that is surrounded with so much nonsense and bullshit, it's just not worth it to sit through the entire game again. I don't know what they were thinking when they made it the way they made it, but man, I just hope they get their shit together for the new game.
Wii - Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II (Just beat the first game last night).
PS4 - Akiba's Trip: Undead and Undressed, Resident Evil Zero HD.
PS3 - No More Heroes: Heroes Paradise, OddWorld: Stranger's Wrath HD, SoulCalibur V, SoulCalibur II HD, God of War HD, Bioshock.
PS4 - Mainly been replaying FFVII. Though haven't been on in the last week. Last I played Cloud woke from his mako-coma-thing.
Wii U- Started Xenoblade X, but had to put it down when it dawned on me that I already had two other JRPG's on the go. Loved what I played so far though, will probably go back once I get FFVII done. Also still playing Mario Maker and Smash, with the occasion round of Mario Kart and Splatoon thrown in.
3DS - About to start the final area of Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, I remember enjoy the game a lot more when I was younger, but it's not bad. I've also been trying to complete the National Dex in Pokemon Omega Ruby (Currently at 414 caught, 463 seen, though a lot of what I need are just evolution's, and finding the time to grind the levels, and also grind Evo-Stones in Super Training)
X1- Last thing I played here was Transformers: Devastation, which I got as a present. Enjoyed it enough, brawlers aren't my thing, but it's well made, and I like Transformers anyway. Though it's at the bottom of my priority list right now.
