XD Glad to hear that Undertale has more interest! <3 Honestly it's the best £6.99 I've ever spent! > w < I assure you that you will not be disappointed!

 

XD I haven't kept a list of the games I've played through the year but I shall have to now I guess! Although It would be better if I kept a list of games that I need to finish.

 

@RedShell Glad to hear that you had the Determination to finish it despite not being a fan of the genre.

 

8'D It would be absolutely amazing if they could bring it to consoles.

Until Dawn

 

Awesome, awesome game. Really enjoyed it. It's a B-movie slasher that's got multiple endings where the characters can be killed or saved. I really enjoyed the atmosphere that this game created, although it was perhaps a bit...darker? than I expected. The game changes in tone slightly towards the end of the game, but I didn't mind that at all.

 

I'm tempted to go back through and play the game again to see if I can save everyone. Then, I'll play it again to see what happens if I somehow make everyone die. Just out of curiosity.

Managed to finish up Guacamelee at the weekend there. Such a great game and thoroughly enjoyed it from start to finish. Plays extremely well and love the power-ups that you get as you go through, particularly the Goat Fly moves. Some of the later platforming sections were a tiny bit fiddly but even with that being the case, it felt more like mistakes on my part rather than platform or enemy placement. Looks great and has a brilliant sense of humour (the baby Calaca going "Are you my mommy?" was hilarious :laughing:).

 

So yeah, loved it and its become one of my favourite games this year. Would love a sequel of sorts so fingers crossed.

 

I then went on and started and finished Beyond Eyes in 2 sittings. I remember seeing this a while back and the trailer and concept interested me: playing as a blind girl where walking through locations allowed you to see the world, with sound also helping to make areas clear at times. It's as I say, an interesting concept but I feel as though it could have been done a bit better, in terms of the game that you end up playing.

 

At times, it just feels like a slog as you slowly walk through the locations trying to find your cat friend and I get that it's done so as to make it more like how it would be for someone who is blind walking through these locations. However, it just felt a bit more meandering than it could have been as there are one or two sections that feel like a trudge and have you double backing on yourself.

 

It's a shame as I enjoyed the concept and the story is heartfelt. In the end, it was an ok experience. I enjoyed it for the run time but could have done with a bit more refinement.

 

I also managed to finish up Uncharted: Drake's Fortune Remastered. This was the first time I'd played this one as I'd previously only played the second game and a little of the third so wasn't sure what to expect. I did have recollections of general thoughts from people back when it came out saying that it was decent but could have been better but went into it with an open mind given that it has been years since I've played an Uncharted game.

 

The first thing I noticed was how clunky it felt at times. There were a few times where I'd try to roll out of the way and I'd just jump around cover and couldn't get out of it despite pushing the stick in the direction away from any cover. I also got hung up on ledges and scenery a couple of times where I couldn't actually get off of it and had to restart. The movement as well just felt a bit stiff and unrefined. From what I remember of the second one, this wasn't as much of a case so from my memory, it would seem the second fixed those problems, although I still remember that the second one was very floaty in terms of movement.

 

Anyway, despite that, I thought it was a good outing. The story was just the right length and I don't think it outstayed its welcome and though I wasn't too keen on some of the later points (getting that generator up and running with those things running about :blank:), I enjoyed it. The shooting felt good even with the bullet sponge enemies at the end and just generally, it was pretty solid. The onrails jeep section and the jet ski bits I could have done without really.

 

But yeah, in the end a good game but think I still prefer the second but I'll see whether that's still the case when I move on to that next.

super_mario_3d_land_by_thegamerxu-d6mny8z.jpg

 

I replayed Super Mario 3D Land recently. So I guess I should talk about it a bit.

 

SM3DL is a 3D platformer released on the 3DS in 2011. It's most known for making people confused about it's later sequel, Super Mario 3D World, which had some people thinking it was some kind of port of this game.

And that's terrible...

 

I'm gonna split this one into different sections, like I do sometimes with no consistency what-so-ever.

 

Super 3D Story!

 

3DS_SuperMario3DLand_Oct6_56.bmp

Do I need to explain it?

 

Super 3D Gameplay!

 

3D Land differentiates itself from the previous 3D Mario games by basing itself heavily on the New Super Mario Bros series.

Levels are very linear, there's a time limit, Mario doesn't have a health meter, instead going for the power-up equals your health mechanic and there are 3 star coins in each level.

 

Some people are inevitably going to lament this, some might even claim that this somehow makes SM3DL "not a proper 3D Mario" which is utterly stupid.

 

The gameplay is tight, fluid and boasts some impeccable level design. Because the game is purely single-player focused, the levels are better suited to a single player.

Of course, 3D World's levels are in no way worse off for being optimised for Multiplayer, but it does feel like a different experience.

 

It's great for blasting through on a bus or a train!

And I have to mention it's fantastic final boss!

For context's sake, you're trying to outrun Bowser as he doggedly pursues you throughout this stage. It's a departure from the typical final boss fight you'd normally see in Mario games. It feels truly epic!

I like it so much, I'm even gonna post a vid.

 

Go ahead and skip to 3:22.

 

Anyway, moan about how it's not "Galaxy 3 or whatever" but this game is definitely worth your time! And you're only fooling yourself if you choose not to play it.

 

Super 3D Music!

 

It's a good soundtrack, not the best, but there are some very catchy songs in here.

 

And now, an anecdote.

 

When I got back to Special World 8, it only just hit me that the song that plays on the map...

 

 

...is a remix of...

 

The "How to draw Mario" Flipnote song!

 

Yes, I know. I really should have noticed it sooner, but it's such a random remix and I love it.

 

Super 3D Visuals!

 

If there was ever a game that I would choose to show off the stereoscopic 3D feature of the 3DS, it'd be this one.

 

You must have JavaScript enabled on your device to view Miiverse posts that have been embedded in a website. View post in Miiverse

 

Yes, I can't really do the game justice, the 3D adds that much!

If you want to see, you're gonna have to look at that Miiverse post on your 3DS. Sorry.

 

So all in all, I enjoyed 3D Land and I only appreciate it's uniqueness more after playing 3D World. It's perfect for a portable game, easy to pick up and play, yet strangely fun to play it for the long haul.

 

And with that...

Next up is my 50th game in 2015, some of you might be able to guess what that game is by looking in other threads.

I'm amazed I played this many games in a year, and I think I've got this thread to thank for it. So thanks @nekunando! Great thread idea!

If it's not F-Zero, I don't wanna know :heh:

 

I'm glad you're enjoying the thread, though, and your posts always feel like such a great contribution to it :hehe:

 

Super Mario 3D Land is an absolute gem of a game and one I too played through again, though that was at some point last year. I may have been a little disappointed by the 3DS in terms of games that really appeal to me but I could never be disappointed in Super Mario 3D Land : peace:

Last week, achieved my 2nd Platinum by finishing the first season of Game of Thrones (Telltale games). I felt a tad disappointed with the final episode in comparison to the earlier ones, but same as Walking Dead, this was one of the easier Platinum's to achieve.

Finished the DLC for the Witcher 3: Heart of Stone. Enjoyed doing this, it added some interesting new characters to the game with some lovely sidequests. A bit different from the main game (seemed a bit more focused on puzzles/riddles/finding items), but I didn't mind that at all. :)

 

Now I have to wait for the next DLC!

 

Have to figure out what game to play in the meantime... @Fierce_LiNk is suggesting Bloodborne, but not sure that is my cup of tea. Or Uncharted, but I'm usually not a fan of games that feature lots of shooting... So I'm not sure.

 

Unless I just replay Witcher 3 on highest difficulty to get the Platinum, but maybe it's a bit too soon for that. :P

Remember this?

 

 

Yup, I sat and played Wonderbook: Book of Spells (PS3) over the weekend. :D

 

I bought it ages ago because I wanted a new Move controller. For some reason it was a lot cheaper to buy the Book of Spells bundle than it was to buy the Move controller on its own. It's been sat there for ages and figured I would give it a shot.

 

I was surprised to see just how well the whole thing worked! Everything was very responsive and the way the book is used is quite clever at times. Things like cleaning the book with a water spell and then having to tilt it to drain all of the water off of it brought a little smile to my face.

 

There is zero difficulty to the game, as it's clearly aimed at kids, but it's certainly one of the better Harry Potter gaming experiences i've had. It was a hell of a lot better than the Kinect game that was brought out, that's for sure. :shakehead

 

I'm honestly quite tempted to check out a few of the other games that were made for the book, especially that Diggs Nightcrawler game.

 

That's game 99 complete. Time for the big milestone.....

Guacamelee! :heh:

 

I went back to Chibi-Robo! Zip Lash recently and fully completed the game, collecting all badges (which unlocks the sound test :yay:) all snacks, and all of Cheebo's adorable outfits. :love:

Didn't realize that there was also an extra world exclusive to the amiibo! Took the completion percentage up to 120. :hehe:

Also did another playthrough of Uncharted, on Crushing difficulty. Really makes me laugh how stupidly difficult that is, 1 shot from pretty much any distance/weapon and you're dead. Meanwhile enemies can survive seemingly endless gunshots at point-blank range. :laughing:

 

Was planning to get the platinum trophy, but with Just Cause 3 having now arrived, I'll have to save that for another time.

I honestly don't even know where to begin when trying to describe how bad the game is. It was one of those games where it's so bad you can't help but laugh while playing it, and that's exactly what I was doing. :D

 

  • Both graphics and performance are very rough.
     
  • There are times when go from one area to the next and the game, which is clearly loading, starts to stutter and pause for a second.
     
  • The textures sometimes don't load or when they do they tend to take a while.
     
  • Backgrounds and levels are bland as hell. I don't think they could have created more generic looking scenery.
     
  • The main character models look fine but others are awful.
     
  • There's clipping all over the place. Enemies go through walls and character models go through clothing they are wearing.
     
  • After chopping up enemies their body parts sometimes just hovered in mid air.
     
  • The story is absolute trash, as are the main enemies. It's like they were trying to mimic the Metal Gear Solid series ( even the after credits scene is very MGS ) but they failed on a spectacular level.
     
  • The driving section was absolutely hilarious. The way Ivan just stayed glued to the gun, despite having a very bumpy ride, was funny as hell. He looked like a plastic soldier who had been stuck to the turret.
     
  • The sound effects were abysmal. I was playing it while talking to lostmario on the PS4 and he kept laughing away to himself at the dialogue and grunts that he could hear coming through the headset.

 

On the plus side the sword fighting is very satisfying, as are the few special kills that randomly occur. The gunplay is stupidly janky, though.

 

You would think that I would have hated the game but I kind of didn't. It was rough, wasn't really that fun but I just found the whole experience hilarious and couldn't stop laughing. I still enjoyed it more than Chibi-Robo! :heh:

I was going to analyse the list and see what new games i've played, what platform had the most playtime etc. but I still have a good month of gaming left to do and figured I would just do it at the end of the year.

Classic. :heh:

If that game remains cheap (and is still being sold) next year, then I'll probably give it a go myself.

That's a good idea. :awesome: Pretty sure the majority of games I've played this year are actually PS+ titles! :D

@Hero\-of\-Time

 

I am still baffled how you have had the time to play 100 games when you also spend time with mates, watch tv and films, running, and have a full time job.

 

Not only that, you absolutely complete everything.

 

Whats the secret?

No idea, mate. I used to work with a guy who claimed I lived outside of time due to how much I can get done in a day. :D

 

I've mentioned before that I always have a plan or goal. When I'm nearing the end of one game I'm already thinking about what's next. I try not to jump between a bunch of games as I tend to lose focus. I dunno, I suppose it's like anything in life, if you love doing something then you find the time to do it.

 

He's a liar, obviously :p

 

This is exactly why I try to provide photos or Miiverse posts of games that can't be tracked with trophies or achievements. I figured someone would say something like this at some point. :heh:

 

I think the only game that didn't get a photo was Street Fighter Alpha 3. I wasn't gonna sit there and take 30 odd photos for each of the endings. :)

Finished Kung Fu Rabbit on the Vita earlier. It's not too bad, basically it's a platformer-esq game, and you play as a rabbit. Levels get progressively harder as you go through, and once done there is a hard mode which kicks in making the easy levels harder and the hard ones, well you know where i'm coming from.

 

Adding that on my list of completed games this year. Number is now 38 this year, only a fraction to that of @Hero\-of\-Time (well done on the achievement of 100 games)

Just got the platinum trophy on Star Wars Battlefront (PS4). Not much more to say than what I've already said in the main thread. Brilliant game and I'll continue to jump on it for sessions with N-E.

 

I think I'm gonna hop back on the original Final Fantasy. I started it around August/September time and gave it a rest once I hit the halfway mark. I may try and finish it today or tomorrow, just in case FFVII hits the PS4 at the Playstation Event.

Finished Far Cry:Blood Dragon (PS3) this afternoon. It's a game I've been wanting to play for a while and thanks to PS+ I got it as part of this months offerings.

 

The game is genuinely hilarious. It's very aware of itself and constantly pokes jokes at video games and movies. The 80s action and sci-fi references are fantastic and constantly had me chuckling away to myself. Michael Biehn does a fantastic job of adding to the 80s feel and hams up his lines quite nicely. Doing the Rambo screaming while firing a mini gun = cheesy grin from me.

 

Special mention has to go to the soundtrack. Again, it's sooooo 80s action flick and there's certain themes that play that could easily have been ripped out of any one of Arnie or Slys films.

 

Finally, the final section of the game had me in stitches. If you're a fan of Rocky IV and aren't too bothered about seeing the mission then give this a watch. :D

 

 

Brilliant!
