(I don't know if it was a physical version I was playing but that traumatized me as the scene froze on Dr. Nefarious's ugly robotic face. ) Best I can go for is a Triple Bingo as I have several slots where I can get a Bingo. If there was a list of cult favorites I could see if that's a feasible spot for me. Can you get a month of PS Plus Premium? I am playing Infamous (PS3) streaming on my PS5 and it's perfectly fine and fun combat. I looked out of curiosity and oddly it was also released in 2009. Anyway, good luck whatever you choose to go for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I put up my first account on this sight in 2009. Still, I will look over the advice to look at re-releases. Not a fan of the Arkham series or Uncharted, but I can find something. NOTE: I saw The Dracula X Chronicles and Dracula X was re-released on the Castlevania Advance Collection but that has four games on it.

Well, you joined this event with the account you posted your question with, so I would think it would be based on THAT account. Especially considering that I'm like 99% sure that having multiple accounts is against PSNP's TOS. IIRC, you even mentioned in your checklist that you were directly told by a mod that it isn't allowed. I'm certainly no rat (plus it seems the mods are aware of what you're doing anyway), so I don't want to derail this thread by having some kind of debate about it, but it seems illogical and more work on yourself to be choosing what games you qualify for in this event based on another account.

They never said anything about having multiple Playstation accounts on the site. If they did, they would have deleted some of my older accounts like PrinnyBoy238. 😜 But yeah, I guess it would be easier if I just used a game released in 2023 and claimed that as my "Released in the year you joined" as my slot. No point in dredging up the past. Anyways, I am going to Utah soon so I don't want that hanging over me during my visit to Salt Lake. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Baker Posted May 20 Popular Post Share Posted May 20 Game 17: Crafting Mechanics Aeterna Noctis. You can craft some crystals in this game. This is a Metroidvania game and it was awesome. The game is also massive as it took around 60 hours just to finish the story. Although I did most side content already. I only need to finish one sidequest to get the platinum. And this game is not that easy. It has some very precision platforming and some tough boss fights. The hardest challenge will come in the DLC where you need to speedrun through 13 platforming challenges and the times to beat are extremely tight. I’m going to write a little miniguide for this game once I’m done. There is little info about it. Therefore on my first playthrough of the game after 30 hours of playing a trophy didn’t unlock and I realised I made a mistake. So to save others from doing the same thing some info sharing sounds like a good plan to me. If you like Metroidvania’s give this game a try. It’s on sale all the time. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post DrBloodmoney Posted May 21 Popular Post Share Posted May 21 (edited) One more entry down! Box: "With Player Choice or Multiple Endings" Game: "Animal Well" A "more than meets the eye" type seemingly simplistic metroidvania, that hides a wealth of esoteric puzzles around it's labyrinthine 8-bit style map. The game is getting compared a lot to games like Tunic and The Witness and Braid and Fez, and those comparisons are apt to a point - the game does have a lot of deep secrets, riddles and mysteries, that give players a lot more to discover than they might initially think, which is like those games... ...but the problem is that while those mysteries are really cool and fun to see, the actual part where you play Animal Well isn't really very good, so the exploration required to actually solve the puzzles ends up being far less fun an experience than in any of those other games. The controls are stiff and fiddly, the Mega Man-style "one button to activate all items, and they need to be constantly swapped via menu / scrolling" is cumbersome in the extreme, (and completely unnecessary, since the game could easily have used more than one button) ... and pretty much every encounter involving an active threat from an enemy is a frustrating pain in the tits as a result. Plus... the decision to hide fast travel behind a riddle is genuinely baffling, as criss crossing the map is a constant requirement for puzzles. This one doesn't have "Player Choice", but it does have multiple endings tied to it's different "layers" of gameplay - and getting the plat requires reaching at least the second set of credits, so I think it meets the spirit of this box!

It's easily one of the best action games out there, and I'm honestly pretty surprised it's not on your profile based on other games you've played. Seems like something you'd probably like. Definitely get the PS4 version though. The PS3 version is kind of a dumpster fire. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately the constant platform sessions are very annoying. Eve is too light for precise jumps and it's amazing how no one noticed this during development. Furthermore, the locations are uninspired and are always in daylight. I know it makes sense story-wise, but two deserts are too many. Thankfully, the final part of the last location has a more modern/high tech style. And I really liked the plot, the various revelations and how they managed to blur the line between villains and good guys. The game built a very interesting world that I hope continues to be developed as it has a lot of potential, especially with the "Making New Memories" ending, which I think will be considered canon. Overall, I had a great time with "Stellar Blade". ------------- So, this is the final result and I think the mosaic turned out really nice! A good mix of indies, AAs and AAAs. Several great games, but my favorites were definitely the three Tomb Raiders from the Remastered Trilogy followed closely by Evil West and Dead Island 2. And since my card ended so soon and I'm having so much fun choosing the images and filling in the tiles, I decided to make a second one this year. Also, this year I plan to achieve 100 plats (I've already achieved 51) so there will be no shortage of games to complete a second full blackout before the end of the year.😎 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could put down a Player's Choice but I am going to save that for later as my last choice was long done by the time I thought about using it. There is actually a lot of list, you just have to look for cult following games or hidden gems since the usually are the same. https://es.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anexo:Videojuegos_de_culto There is that one that is in spanish, but shouldn't be a problem to understand it. https://www.gamespot.com/articles/the-best-cult-video-games-of-all-time/1100-6503704/ https://m.imdb.com/list/ls050352013/ There are whatculture videos and stuff like that, basically hidden gems or niche games tend to be.

Heather342 Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 @GT__Jedi you should definitely check out The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles. It builds on the game mechanics of Ace Attorney, has new characters and setting and improved animated graphics. The mystery that spans the duology is really good as well 😊 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
