I was thinking 'GGT14 had God of War 3 rip out part of Yakuza 3's content'

Rei, have you played any FFXIII today? I put in about a good 8hrs or so today (13 or so total thus far) and I've died like twice due to selecting the wrong paradigm, and not having enough time to switch to the right one. You have to be fast thinking, and moving when it starts getting intense. I have to say I am really loving the battle system now though, with all the options opened up. Also I didn't care too much for Hope at the start, but he's starting to grow on me a bit as he's maturing. Still it's all about Lightning and Snow for me, and the story is getting pretty good.
 
Yup, I played some today. Not sure what my time is on the game. I just got to Hope's hometown.

Yeah I love the battle system. It really rewards fast thinking, and is a lot of fun. Lightning is so awesome. I love her.

Nice, you're just a bit ahead of me then as that's where I'm heading atm. I probably would of already been there, but I went and did a bit of grinding today as Sazh to raise up my CP. Lightning is full of win. ;) What did you think of:

Lightnings first summon/battle? That battle was intense as hell lol. I was frantically getting juggled in the air, while trying to switch to medic status for hope. Luckily I didn't run out of time, as I thought I was going to. Very epic battle IMO and you have to love the cut scene animation for it. I never skip it, it's just too pretty to skip.

The Odin battle was pretty cool. I want to get control of Snow again so I can finally use Shiva...

Mass Effect 2 came out this year so I know you're lying.

Yeah, same thing I was thinking too. Last time I used Snow, was in the flash back of finding Serah when she dumped him. Which then you couldn't do anything option wise. He's sitting on tons of CP atm and I can't use it lol. Drives me crazy. :cold: I'm interested to see how Shiva is going to work, and if all the party members end up with Summons or only a select few of them do.
 
Dude, I'm so cool. I think Yakuza is the best game ever, because it has such a niche audience. Nom nom nom nom nom. I so want to live in Japan one day and be a real Yakuza. Then all those passive aggressive Japanese girls will think I'm cool.

...excuse me. I had to let that out... *runs off* Dont hate me...

Nah, censored game like it's 1986 < the best JRPG of the generation, so far.

What I don't get is the complaints about the linearity. It's no more linear than something like the combat sequences in Mass Effect 2. The surrounding game is less linear, yeah, but it's not really THAT much different. I don't even really think about it being linear, I just love the battles.

I think it helps if you turn off the minimap too. Lets you enjoy the environments more and worry less about the path you're running on.

One of my favorite things too - the way the other characters run ahead and talk to you and react to things. Also, being able to retry battles.

well, I'm gonna move to Japan and talk about how much of a hero I am so the active aggressive japanese girls can punch me out every 5 minutes.
 
So Sega also cut out sidequests that deal with Pedophilia and Incest and people complain.
I'm still playing my copy when it gets here. Have to support it if we have any chance of getting Y4 over here.

Part of what I loved about the other games....

I just read about these too. Now I am actually irritated whereas the other cuts didn't bother me too much.
They really did treat it like a 90s SNES game.
 
[quote name='Halo05']The 500 post limit is a drag.

But it makes it so we can have new and creative titles. If we finish this one before Tuesday, I'd actually step up to make something GOW3 related (unless someone threadblocked me :p).

Yeah it sucks, I liked the mega GGT.

I think I'll take a break from online BC2 for a bit, maybe play through the single player before I go back online.

I'm glad you said something! I was soooo going to make a GoW3 thread if we got this done before Tuesday.

I did this for awhile and then went back to the multi. The multi is just so damn good.
About 10 hours into FFXIII and im still loving it just as much. Found my Vanille Hentai.
 
I got my FFXIII faceplate today. Now all I need to do is get my copy of Mass Effect 2 from Amazon and my purchases for the week will finally be done.

I'm also 14 hours into FFXIII right now.
 
I also thought this would be a God of War III thread. Oh well, I really shouldn't be surprised.

RE5 Gold is also out...this month is pretty crazy with new releases.
 
I played the demo of Just Cause 2 last night. They should have named it, "This is how you do Mercenaries 2 bitches!"
 
I don't know, I didn't like the demo for JC2, kinda bored me after I had my fun blowing up gas tanks and shooting down that tower.

I can't wait to see what games they decide to put it up against next time. ME3? Call of Duty 8 or 9? or Halo something something? Or maybe they'll wait until the PS4 to release it.

I was planning to get Y3 but I can't after the way Sega handled the whole thing.

Prediction, 2 years into PS4, we'll get it.

[quote name='TomJones4']I honestly dont care about some shitty minigames and sidequests I would never do anways.[/QUOTE]

I love sidequests. Main reason I love WRPGs. ^_^ And don't talk shit about FF7 Snowboarding.

I don't give a crap about most of the cuts. My problem lies in the way SEGA handled the whole situation.
 
Box is bigger than I imagined. Almost, ALMOST feel like I should have got it, but..... eh.

[quote name='TomJones4']Man WRPGs are probably some of the most soulless boring things ever to me. Its like playing D&D by yourself.[/QUOTE]

I've always wanted to be my own dungeon master.
 
I started playing Crisis Core again, for whatever reason. Love love love it, but it also reminded me how much I cannot fucking stand Genesis. I know the whole "stand still while the bad man is talking" is a staple, but fucking shit. I'd rather jump off a cliff than listen to "blahblahblah, shitty play, blahblahblah, I'm dying ever so slowly, blahblahblah, I look like a woman."

I'd get Yakuza 3 if the combat and movement weren't horrible.

Actually it's smaller then I imagined... I kind of regret not getting it now.

Crisis Core was surprisingly enjoyable. I'm still shocked at how well they handled the ending to the game.
