After weeks of practicing, I was finally able to beat Silver Surfer on the NES. It is definitely the hardest game I have ever beaten.

Awesome!

Damn!

I ashamed to admit I have never played Silver Surfer.

Don't listen to the haters; this is a great game, with fantastic audio visuals. It does require patience, because you know, you do have to learn the game, but its much easier than people make it out to be.

I love games that require some blood sweat and tears to beat. They tend to be the most memorable...

What are audio visuals?

Audio are what you hear. Visuals are what you see.

See?

Need to put some time back into this game since it's gotten the xbox one BC treatment.

Guardian Heroes

I introduced my 8yr old son to the wonderful world of Civilization over the weekend and we've both been glued to the computer ever since.

We're playing Civ IV and now I really want to check out the newer editions. But this one is so good!

My boy's about to finish his first game (he had about 35 turns remaining when I left this morning). He's been putting a couple of hours a day into it for the past 5 days, and he's in first place by a ton. Proud parent.

Ive been playing Odin Sphere for PS4. I actually am recording it and uploading the videos to youtube if you plan on watching :

[Bloufo]

Was sorting through some of my stuff and came across my CD-i console.
So I fired it up and played a bit of Mutant Rampage: Bodyslam.

I want to say it's like a poor mans version of Streets of Rage, but that would be giving it too much credit.
The highlights were some of the enemies. There's a large woman who hits you with her giant breasts, a guy who farts in your face, and spitting cavemen.

So all in all not a totally lost cause.

[esadajr]

Was playing The Simpsons game on X360. Not the most polished game to say the least, not bad as a two player coop

PS4
Bloodborne,been playing it's dlc the old hunters finally.Man the bosses for the old hunters are very difficult to beat but memorable.

Halley Wars for the Game Gear. Enjoyable shooter.

[mackdanger]

Got a Strider 2 PCB for my birthday so I have been jammin' on that. On the PC Engine front I have been working on my Genpei 2 hard mode no death clear. Should be ready soon.

Bloodborne is such a good game. Fighting Ludwig with his own weapon is fun too.

I've been playing a lot of n64 lately. My brother and I are going crazy with mortal Kombat 4 and Mario tennis. I have Ben playing through castlevania legacy of darkness, and it's a really impressive game

When i was stuck on ludwig i found the whirlgig saw blade as the most effective weapon against him.

Been playing overwatch non stop for about 2 weeks now. Such fun. My eldest son asked to play gate of thunder & Dracula x yesterday, that made me happy.

[jtucci31]

Just beat Metal Gear Solid 2 last night. What a mindfuck. Definitely enjoyed it, can't wait to play Snake Eater. I need scissors! 61!

Also beat Shadow of the Colossus a week or so ago. Just need to get Last Guardian. Man SotC was such an amazing game, I wanted to replay it as soon as it ended. Ico/SotC are some of my favorite games I think, they're so unlike anything else I've ever played.

Currently playing through Uncharted 4 now, loving the hell out of that.

[esteban]

Playing: Blazing Lazers, God of Game setting

[blueraven]

Played a Bit of Marvel: Contest of Champions. Man, that game will suck your soul right out of you. It's as addictive as Warcraft.

Next post here will be oBey related.

After finishing Final Fantasy XV I jumped straight into DOOM. I am loving it, kick ass gameplay for a FPS

How was the FFXV story? Worth picking the game up? I've heard they're about to update the game a lot and change lots of things.

Yeah, what a masterpiece! Still angry about my horsey, though! ;) Those bastards, but obviously it made for good drama to the adventure.

I got Pac-man Championship Edition 2 over the Xmas break on Steam along with some other stuff.  I want to love it, but struggling.  The controls seem just a little more wonky than CE DX though enough to put me off.  I'm playing with a 360 pad and only the d-pad seems to do the trick, and you guys know how divisive opinions on that can be.  I'd love to play this with an arcade joystick on a stand up cabinet and see how much my game improves.  Now you have to chase the ghost trains which move super fast, and the eating is automatic, and it finally drops you off at the spawn point of the maze despite where you finished eating the ghosts.  So it's less satisfying and also disorienting now, though I guess a little more in the spirit of the original game where you'd have to chase down the four ghosts (now four ghost trains) separately.  I see what they were going for.  You also have to chase the goddamn fruit now!  C'mon, that's just annoying.  I just tried one of the jump levels and that was pretty frustrating as you can't necessarily tell where you end up until you land.  I'm sure with memorization it would get easier but I didn't take to it as naturally as the championship level.  On the plus side, the music is great and the visuals are pretty.  I will try to give it some more love a little at a time.

I also picked up Dead Rising 3 (need a PC upgrade to play it I think), Overcooked which I bought because my gf enjoys those sort of a cooking/time based games, RE: Revelations 2 (Why not, I buy every other RE game, I played a bit of the first level months back and it seemed alright enough for my horror fix which I need a constant supply of), Hand of Fate, Rollers of the Realm, and a bunch of other small games.

I am now thinking about playing some Shovel Knight on Wii U, which I treated myself to last week also.

[gheebee]

Been playing Shantae: ½ Genie Hero on the Wii U since it arrived on Tuesday and beat the regular mode today. All in all a pretty good game, I bought it because it made me think of Wonder Boy in Monster World and was glad to find it similar once I played it. Probably give Hero mode a go at some point. The last level was a little frustrating and then to add to that the power went out on the second to last boss and I wound up having to restart the level from the second checkpoint after it came back on. :/

How was the FFXV story? Worth picking the game up? I've heard they're about to update the game a lot and change lots of things.

Story was the worst part for me to be honest, I really didn't understand it. The best part is open world exploration and quest loops, but it gets old fast. I am not sure I'd recommend it except to the open minded hardcore final fantasy fanboys hahaha

[blueraven]

I played through the subway level of Final Fight on the Subway.

Legend of Heroes Trails of Cold Steel
8.5/10

Beat this a few days ago. A lot better than I expected going in (I disliked the localized PSP garghav trilogy). Filled with dialogue and exposition as one would expect from a Legend of Heroes game. It took me just shy of 70 hours and I wasn't really lollygagging at all, in fact I had started practically skipping the text in the filler side quests (needed for best ranking). The plot is nothing to write home about exactly, though it's within the same world as Trails in the Sky and does continue through two more games so it could be more interesting. It's certainly better than a lot newer of JRPGs I have played lately in that regard. At least the developers cared about crafting this world and it shows with the lore/backstory you can find in the game. The battle system is where this game truly shines. Lots of options but not so complex that it's annoying. Straight forward and menu driven. Enemies are visible on the map everywhere, so no random battles. The final boss sequence has two fights with a slightly different combat method which I am thinking will be a part of the series going forward (sporadic fights here and there I don't want to spoil anything by mentioning more).

tl;dr If you like JRPGs buy this game.

[TR0N]

PS4
Contra

NES version is better but i keep coming back to arcade original for that high score.

[Psycho Punch]

Hitman (PS4)

I've beaten the short main campaign a while ago but I always keep coming back since they keep adding extra missions, contracts and features on top of the game all the time, it's incredible. Almost justifies the always online DRM bullshit they did to it.

[wildfruit]

Still playing Overwatch daily, couple hours a day. Damn thing is so addictive.

I have a friend that plays this about every day as well. I tried it but I just don't get the appeal I guess and I haven't played it again.

[munchiaz]

ps4:
Nioh - about 15 hours in. Loving the game so far. The combat is really nice. Kusurigama, and poison is what i use to take down my foes.

DS:
barnyard blast - a decent action platformer, that could have been a good game if it had some polish.

[Gypsy]

^Everything I read about Nioh is positive. It's definitely now on my list of games to pick up when I get a PS4.

Recently played through Path of Radiance on hard mode again, going to start up Radiant Dawn in a bit and try hard mode (heard it's brutal af) but just finished up an Aria of Sorrow run the other day so I started up Dawn of Sorrow again today.

[gheebee]

Finally beat Octor Freud in Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams (Wii U) today, maybe someday I'll have the patience to beat Gurglewocky and complete the game...

[jtucci31]

Ok I just beat Metal Gear Solid 3. Wow.

What an amazingly told story with stellar gameplay that had my wanting more. [MILD SPOILER] One of the best bosses in a video game I've ever loved and hated. The final battle was so damn cool with the mixture of a tense battle within a field of lilies--how it starts off with just the sound of the cool breeze brushing the wildlife around you and then slowly the dramatic yet emotional music fades in all while there is a "timer" to battle against.

Can't wait to play the rest of the series.

[Gypsy]

Best part of that game was the silly Bond style song iyam. Good game though for sure.

I just cleared Ys MoC. Very enjoyable game.

[TR0N]

Wii-U

I wasn't gonna buy a switch at launch so i bought,zelda botw for the wii-u instead.I'm enjoying zelda botw so far lot's of exploration akin to loz etc.I just wish it had a full ost it can be little to quiet.

[esadajr]

Lately I've been playing GTA V on PS3. Tonight I'll try the new Zelda on WiiU, see what all the fuzz is all about.

[roflmao]

My son and I have been playing through Skies of Arcadia on the Dreamcast lately. We're roughly 25 hours in and he's loving it! Such a fun game to play through again.

How are the random battles? I hear they are killer.

They are super frequent but it's a JRPG so that kind of comes with the territory. At least later one you can avoid them on the world map by flying higher in your ship.
