Week in Review - What Are You Playing?

This past week: I bought Crackdown and VF5. I am have already totally defeated all of Los Muertos and The Volk. I have also defeated one of the Shai Gen bosses. Have collected about 412 of the 500 agilty orbs and about 80 of 300 hidden orbs. What I really want to do now is play it in co-op with someone. In VF5, started quest mode with Lei Fei and started learning newcomer El Blaze. At the end of FFIV, just need to take out Zemus and it'll be done. I think that is about all of the notible gaming stuff I have done this week.usagi704

My copy of crackdown should be here tommorrow or monday.  I'll play co-op with you when it gets here.

That's my favorite Final Fantasy. ^_^

Let's see, I'm playing a bunch of different things right now.

Tales of Phantasia (GBA): I'm almost finished. I've got one more place to go and then I'll tackle the final dungeon.

Wild ARMs 2 (PS1):  I'm a good 15 hours or so into Wild Arms 2 and really liking it so far.  Just picked up a new character.

Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 (PC):  I'm playing through this again.  I just finished the Soviet campaign and I started on the Allied campaign.

GRAW (X360):  I finally beat this stupid mission (Neutralize rebel outpot) that was causing me grief.

LEGO Star Wars (PC): I beat the game in story mode a while back, but this week I started going back through and getting all the LEGO canisters and trying to achieve Jedi status on each level.  So far I've accomplished that on both Episodes I & II and two levels of Episode III.

I bought a handful of games as well, but I'm happy I finally have a really nice copy of Suikoden.

In this one week I:

- Finished Brute Force solo

- Finished Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction for the second time solo.

Morrowind remains on hold because it locked up and I lost about 2 hours worth of progress (yeah yeah, I should save more, but it happens, and it's a reall piss-off when it does).

Got Shadow Warrior back up and running, found out the JFSW port will be updated soon (for anyone that wants to play SW in a W2K or XP machine).  There's also one available for Duke 3D.

Anyway, found out the two expansions planned for Shadow Warrior, Wanton Destruction and Twin Dragons, has been released as freeware.  Twin Dragons is not in a group file, however, so I can't run it.  If you have DOSBox and a damned powerful machine, you might be able to play it properly.

Anyway, JFDuke and JFSW are available at http://jonof.edgenetwork.org/index.php?p=jfduke3d

Oh, and I'll be starting back up with Morrowind now.

The JF source ports are very well done. I was very happy when they released the source code to SW cause I think it's a better game than Duke. But that's just me.duncanr2n

Yeah, I thought SW was better, too.  It gets buggy in OpenGL for me, though, but it runs silky smooth at 800 x 600 res anyway, so I don't worry too much.

I popped Lost Planet in for about 20 minutes before I ran screaming back to Gears. Wayne animates like he's got a full diaper...

This is a puggle...

Half pug, half beagle.  Designer dog.  About $300.  Sigh.

$300 for a mutt?  I don't care what breeds it's from a mutt's a mutt.  But it's worth it; they live longer :P

Tales of Phantasia (GBA): Last dungeon.

Wild ARMs 2 (PS1):  Didn't get much farther in this, this week.

Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 (PC):  Still playing throught the allied campaign.

GRAW (X360):  About halfway through the campaign on normal.  I really like this game.  I've also been playing co-op with this and it's been a blast.

LEGO Star Wars (PC): Got everything in the game, all the minikits, Jedi status on every level, and all the characters, extras, etc.

I bought a handful of games as well again this week, this week the purchase I'm most happy about is Lego Star Wars II on the 360 because I got it new for $25.

Can't blame him, it's such a wicked game :P

I'm about...1/3 of the way through Knights of the Old Republic.  Third time through and I'm catching a lot of sidequests that I missed.

KotOR 2 isn't as good as the first one.  It's a solid game, but I've had little desire to play it again.

Picked up about 12 games this week, mostly NeoGeo and GBA. 

Finished Call of Duty 3 (check my profile for review) and closed Chapter 3 of Phoenix Wright.  Started Pokemon Leafgreen.

COD3 was certainly more generous with the acheivement points than COD2.  In COD2 I unlocked 2 out of 13 acheivements even though I finished the campaign, COD3 gave me 7 or 9 for completing campaign.

Tales of Phantasia (GBA): Finally finished. My review is here.  Dhaos was a pain in my rear.  I've now moved on to:

Final Fantasy I & II: Dawn of Souls (GBA): Just did the very first part

DOOM (X360): Completed Episode 2 on Ultra-Violent

Wild ARMs 2 (PS1): Picked up a new member for my party.  Good thing about him is that he allows me to use the Combine ability (like summons in FF).

Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 (PC): Still playing throught the allied campaign.  Kinda on hold.  Was busy playing other stuff.

GRAW (X360): Finished the SP campaign on normal.  Also completed the co-op campaign with a perfect (all primary and secondary objectives completed).  I love this game.

Gears of War (X360):  Finished Acts 3 & 4 on Casual.

I picked up 4 games this week: Shining Tears, Shadow Hearts, Ratchet: Deadlocked, and Gunstar Super Heroes.

well... summing up the rest of the week; I've finished Ogre Battle 64 and Time Stalkers totaling my games finished withen 1 week to 4. not bad fot just 1 week.waflerevolution

[QUOTE="waflerevolution"]well... summing up the rest of the week; I've finished Ogre Battle 64 and Time Stalkers totaling my games finished withen 1 week to 4. not bad fot just 1 week.aspro73

Finished Kaniggits Of Ze Old République (3rd time), still didn't get all the sidequests.  Had one ruined by a glitch (oh what a surprise). 

Also finally finished Psi Ops.  That game really had me unimpressed.  If I wanted to throw boxes around at people, I'd go back to Deus Ex: Invisible War, which is a longer, deeper and an altogether better game.  And doesn't rely on gimmick gameplay.  And the weapons are better balanced.

Currently playing Dynasty Warriors 4, just got Ma Chao's level 10 weapon and it looks like I'm on the final leg of Summon Night 2.

Final Fantasy I & II: Dawn of Souls (GBA): Got the ship.
Wild ARMs 2 (PS1): Picked up another Guardian and got all my character past lvl 20.
Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 (PC): 2/3 through the Allied campaign
GRAW (X360): Playing through the SP campaign on hard now.  Finished first 4 missions.
Gears of War (X360):  Gave General RAAM a new hole in his head.  Completed the game on casual and started through on hardcore.

I also picked up 23 games this week. 8 Gamecube, 1 DS, 10 PS2, 3 Xbox, and 1 360

For the week ending 03-18-2006-

-Finished and reviewed Lego Star Wars...meh.
-Have five-star ratings on all but 5 songs on medium level in Guitar Hero, all but about 12 on Guitar Hero II.

I force moyself to finish Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (waiting until Kingdom Under Fire: The Crusaders comes before I even touch Heroes) this week, finished it on Wednesday.  What a waste of 50 hours.  I haven't seen a story that disjointed since I watched that Karas anime. 

Went back to my second runthrough of Scarface; The World is Yours, I'm now a much happier camper.  Better combat and, more importantly, better chainsaw mechanics.  And aiming mechanics.  And shooting while driving mechanics.  And soundtrack.  And story.  Not as varied missions, but at least the goddamned game makes sense!

Regarding "Hot Coffee," you have to have a GameShark (or some other cheat device) and an early copy of GTA:SA. I think I've still got the GameShark codes somewhere if you really want to see it, but it's really not worth it.
