Self-explanatory. Post your progress and thoughts about the games you're playing now here.

Phantom Brave - Still powering up for Uber-Sulphur. The game's still being awesome as always, though the powering up is getting really time-consuming. Argh.

Final Fantasy X-2 - Continuing a replay for getting every accessory and garment grid in the game. Looks like I need a third playthrough for Enterprise, though. Well, the game's short.

More Borderlands. Drifters are nasty little fuckers.

Modern Doorfare 3 - One of the guys on my hall got it and I've been messing around with custom free for alls. RIOT SHIELDS ONLY.

Solatorobo - Surprisingly well-made game for the DS; pretty fun.

Skate 2 - Shennanigans

Drole Halibut 4 - Unlocking weapons and armor and such.

Xenoblade ~ Doing semiendgame quests/trying to get to the right level for them. They give you all of these things that you need to be 85+ for, when you'll only be about 70 by the time you accept them.

Arc Rise Fantasia ~ Somewhere before those skywalks near the end of the game. Optional bosses are whores.

Xillia ~ In a cave, finally got Leia. TOO BAD SHE'S SO SLOW. And I had to fight this incredibly fucked up boss with Jude alone, who kept using Gen'eijin and not staggering and spitting attacks out into infinity. Such a bitch.

Touhoumon ~ E4 is available to fight, but if they're all 60, then my level 45 team has no chance. Looking for jerks to punch that I haven't yet.

Growlanser ~ Still not done, all this final mission junk takes forever.

Borderlands - Tried one of the first Underdome challenges. It was easy at first but then somehow something just killed me OUT OF NOWHERE in the middle of Round 5, Wave 4. Two hours, wasted.

I hate you Moxxi

I WAS SO CLOSE

I totally pictured you playing Minecraft and doing something like this.

I still haven't beaten Dark Souls. I want to get as much trophies as I can before starting NG+, and I refuse to use the Dragon Head Glitch.

P3P - Doing Shinji's S. Link. P3 is all about cooking.

Also started Sonic Generations the other day and got my first two S ranks.

COME OUT UMVC3 COME OUT NOW

EDIT: Who's ready to get his ass kicked in UMVC?

OutRun 2006: Coast 2 Coast (PSP): I bought this a few weeks ago, and have been playing it in short bursts a lot whenever I needed some distraction or a break. While the PSP's analogue stick isn't as responsive as the 360's one, or, if you can even compare that, the steering wheel of the arcade machines, it's still quite playable, although the graphics lose a little bit of their splendour. Nonetheless, it's heaps of fun.
 I had mostly been fiddling with the Coast 2 Coast mode, which includes all sorts of gameplay modes and features not seen in the arcade game, like races against CPU drivers along unique assortments of courses, or missions based on Heartbreak mode, but more difficult.
 Save for the drifting missions, a lot of these tend to be a little tedious and even frustrating though. Being one to want and complete things, I played them without thinking any further about it. Another grievance is that in Coast 2 Coast mode (and normal singleplayer in general), the different cars actually have different properties when it comes to handling, acceleration, speed, and so I often suffer the agony of choice: Better handling but lower speed so I don't crash into something at the end of a race and am overtaken by everyone, but also take longer to get to rank one? Which car is suited best for this gameplay mode? And so on.
 Today, however, I finally realised what should have been obvious—that this has nothing to do in OutRun. The point of the game is to drive, to have fun, and to have fun driving, without stressful races, fiddly missions, or fine‐tuning.
 And thus I remembered the “OutRun 2 SP” option in the main menu, which is just that—the original arcade game, raw, where every car handles the same and drives at the same speed and the only criterion by which you need to choose is their looks and your taste, and where you don't have to worry about anything and can just drive, drive, and feel good (and hunt for a highscore by perfecting your driving, but at your leisure). After a single playthrough, I realised how much I missed this, and I'll probably never go back to C2C again.


Also, more Minecraft. Finished the interior of the church a couple of days ago:

UMvC3 - Playing this on my friend's PS3. If you want to play some matches, Lucho, send me a message or something.

[Raijinili]

Skyward Sword: Faron Forest. Really enjoying it, actually. I'm really happy that it turned out to be good and not shit. Art style and graphics are nothing to write home about, though. Seriously. :/

[Raijinili]

Fate/Extra - Squaring off against Shinji and his servant, I picked Saber cause I didn't feel like playing hard mode with Caster yet. It's a kind of fun game I guess, simple.

UMvC3 - Playing this on my friend's PS3. If you want to play some matches, Lucho, send me a message or something.

Of course. If I see you logged that is.

UMvC3 - Completed all of Vergil's missions. Also Hulk's, but that's not actually hard.

[Raijinili]

Fate/Extra - breezing through with Saber; Rin Route. 4th Round and I'm probably about 7 levels over leveled.

League of Leggings - Apparently I play now.

Recettear - I lost my save files. All of them :\

DFF012 - Yeah.

[Raijinili]

Steamcloud?

[Raijinili]

UMvC3 - Practicing this game in preparation for a tournament. But the game I'm really hyped about is:

The King of Fighters 13 - YEEEAAH! Some guy immediately brought it over just hours after he bought the game while some other guys and I were playing some Marvel at a friend's place. Ditched Marvel and played KOF13 with that guy for the rest of the night.

Steamcloud?

I don't own it on steam.
