 #184: LBP3 (ps3) - 2.62%  

the game's good, not great and definitely the weakest in the series. i only had one thing glitch on me and it was the "joust in time" level. the bubbles i needed to complete that level wouldn't unlock no matter how far i got and i couldnt find anyone online with that problem. i fixed it by just having someone join me with all the bubbles unlocked. the only really hard part of this one was acing the last 2 levels, which are still easier than doing the aces in the other games. thanks to sirwawa for helping me with the multiplayer quests. it's not mentioned in the guide but they only register for the host so that's kinda annoying, but thankfully there's only 3 of them. i'll probably stack this since i'm a sucker for annoying games and creating stress for myself.

If you are not good in simulation racing games stay away from GT Sport. You have to get many online wins and they can not be boostable.

#371 - LEGO Ninjago Movie: The Videogame

I've considered picking this up in a sale multiple times, but it never really went cheap enough considering the reception I'd seen had been incredibly mixed. I'm glad it was free so I could finally try it for myself and form my own opinion on it. It was a nice change of pace, but I'm not sure I'd want this formula to forever replace the older games. Instead of having individual levels that all have their own collectibles and true stud meters, this game is split up into hubs and all the story missions take place in these hubs, and your true ninja stud meter is universal - all studs from all hubs contribute to it.

 

It was certainly an interesting new way to do things, and in ways I actually preferred this method, because the game progression felt even more natural than usual and studs were constantly useful - in prior games, once you max out your stud meter, they become fairly useless for that level because if you max out the meter in every level as you go, you'll probably have enough to buy all the multipliers and then money issues become trivial anyway. One thing that was a bit odd about it though was that you needed 4,000,000 studs to max out your true ninja rank, but in order to purchase everything in the game, you only needed around 3,500,000 I'm pretty sure, making the last 500K completely useless. It also actively discouraged you from buying anything, as anything you purchased subtracted that money you spent from your overall rank, so you had to re-earn it. Hardly an issue - I had 9M+ studs by the time I got the plat after purchasing everything, but it was still a bit questionable.

 

It'd be interesting if going forward, the LEGO formula swaps between this and the usual one every couple of games, but LEGO Movie 2 looks like a completely different formula to both this and the old games, so I'm rather hesitant about that one as it seems relatively poorly received from what I've seen. I'll probably try it eventually, but it'll need to be on a very deep sale (or free like this one please!) This was also a bit of a change of pace from all the RPGs I've been doing lately so that was kinda nice too I guess.

#138 Shadow Warrior

 

I bought this game from the underrated gem sale and no exaggeration, it's one of the best games I've played especially when you know that it was created by a small dev team. This game is a reboot of the original 1997 Shadow Warrior which was released only on PC. You play as Lo Wang, a cheeky assassin who likes to drop a bunch of dick jokes and one-liners . You work for a Japanese industrial businessman called Orochi Zilla and your mission is simple. Seek out and retrieve a very fancy Katana called the Nobitsura Kage. 

 

The story wasn't really anything crazy to write home about (it was okay), but it was there as an excuse for the solid solid gameplay mechanics. You have a katana, revolver, SMG, crossbow, rocket launcher, shotgun, flamethrower and detachable weapons like a demon heart and demon head all of which are upgradable to make yourself powerful and look fancy while slaying demons. Level design was really great. There is an obvious heavy Japanese inspiration from mythos to environments what with the Koi ponds, cherry blossom trees and building architectures. The only bad thing I can say about the level design is that the first 5 levels were a little bit too samey i'd say but after that, it started to become much more varied and enjoyable. 

 

Trophy-wise, you have a bunch of kill-related trophies and collectibles to get all of which are nicely tracked in an in-game statistic menu (only downside is you don't know which collectibles you're missing). Speaking of collectibles, I really enjoyed the fortune cookies which were freaking hilarious . The game is honestly worth it for that alone .

 

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=822745091

 

Normal difficulty imo was not hard at all and is the best way to experience the game. There is some challenge involved in normal difficulty but the game also remains fun most importantly as you're able to execute cool combos and take big risks doing flashy moves without the fear of knowing you can easily die at any moment.  

 

Of course, I can't talk about trophies here without mentioning Heroic mode which is basically a mode whereby enemies have a shit ton more health, deal a shit ton more damage, you start fresh (no NG+) and you only get 1 life per chapter (each chapter ranges from 25 mins to as much as 85 mins or so). It's definitely doable though but you have to play very defensively and not in a way you that you should play this game imo. Hardest parts were early on in the game when you have no upgrades and I'd say some of the long chapters like Chapter 9, 13 and 16 (only because of the final fights).

 

Overall, was pleasantly impressed with this game and it definitely earns its moniker as an underrated gem. Will definitely jump on SW 2 pretty soon but for now let's keep things varied .

#114 Maneater

 

Pretty entertaining game =D. It can be super repetitive though with the activities not changing at all with each new zone.  Would recommend at $40, but if you are hesitant I would wait for a little price drop.

 

Also be aware, apparently some collectibles are bugged at the moment for some people among other issues.  I personally didn't experience anything other then poor framerate towards the end if the game / some zones.

 

Rating:  7.5 /10

Estimated time to 100%:  10 - 12 hours tops.

 #358 - The Infectious Madness of Doctor Dekker

 

 

Well this was utterly exhausting 

 

Not that I didn't enjoy it because I did and I liked The Bunker and Late Shift (also published by Wales Interactive).

 

But there's a lot to keep track of and for a game that features such limited interaction it gets quite tiring in an ironic way.

 

You play as a psychiatrist, trying to solve a murder whilst treating the patients of the recently deceased Doctor Dekker. You can interrogate these patients by asking them predetermined questions and sometimes you'll be required to type in your own questions too which is quite cumbersome using a DualShock 4.

 

I definitely don't recommend attempting to playthrough it in one sitting as it'll end up driving you as crazy as Doctor Dekker's patients. Speaking of which they're a pretty unlikeable bunch apart from sweet Elin. A slightly more sympathetic cast wouldn't have gone amiss.

 

I enjoyed it but it isn't for everyone.

 

Enjoyment: 5/10

Difficulty: 3/10

The Final Verse - NieR

 

Hit a milestone and gave it a really great game to fill it.  NieR was definitely a ride from the moment I started the game and heard Kaine's foul mouth cussing out Weiss all the way to the final ending and the speedrun.  It's a great game that has aged very well and is still a fun experience even 10 years after its original release.  So glad it's getting released to PS4 soon so more people can enjoy this gem of a game.  I had a ton of fun and am kind of sad that the ride is over now.

Platinum #156 - Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare (PS4)

& 100%

& 10,000th trophy!

 

A friend gifted me a month of PS+ so I decided to look at a couple games that I hadn't started yet to see if any had an online component that require plus.  The only two games I had in my library that required PS+ were Star Wars Battlefront and this game.  I went with Infinite Warfare because I had a friend that loved the zombies mode and wanted to play through all the maps together.  Wow, did I make the right decision to boot up this game!

 

The campaign is very very short and is probably the easiest of all of the Call of Duty games on veteran.  I loved the world building and most of the characters in the story.  It opens up at one point and allows you to open up a star map, like in Warframe, to set out on missions.

 

Multiplayer is kind of dead at this point in time.  I wish I had played this game at launch to experience it but it can take awhile just to find a match.

 

By far the best thing in this game is the zombie mode and the DLC zombie maps!  Each map has a ton of personality, aside from The Beast from Beyond, and they were super fun to play and explore.  The easter eggs themselves were made easier with the numerous walkthroughs out on the internet but the bosses will require some finesse.

 

All in all, I think this is my favorite Call of Duty to date!

 

Enjoyment: 9/10

Doom Eternal

Fun: 6/10

Difficulty: 3/10

 

While I had fun playing the campaign, Eternal takes a step back from the 2016 Doom.  Battle Mode sucks and there's no DM.  Hopefully, there will be great content in the season pass.  My next platinum is likely GT Sport.  I also want to finish up some older games.

XBlaze Lost: Memories (PS3)

 

 

Enjoyment: 3/10

Difficulty: 1/10

Time taken: 2 weeks, 5 days, 10 hours

 

XBlaze: Lost Memories was my first leap in to Visual Novels, and let's say that I'm not a fan. I did start getting in to the storyline, though the sheer amount of dialogue and lack of gameplay in the latter parts of the game just resulted in me hammering the 'X' button to get it finished with. I'm still somewhat curious as to what actually happened with the story, so may return to it when I have an hour or two to spare - but I'm not going to lose any sleep over it if I don't. Difficulty wise, I'm being somewhat generous giving it a 1 - though I did use a guide for the quizzes (I'd have got most/all of the answers correct anyway) and final choices in the game to try and make sure I didn't have to play through it again.. ?

NEED FOR SPEED HEAT

Difficulty 3/10
Enjoyment 9/10
 

 

Other than Rivals which cool concept meh implementation this console generation has been great for NFS, With the Day time mechanic of earning money and the night time mechanic for rep made it super interesting on splitting your time between night and day, Cars control great for the type of game it is, customization is always fun I think I sank 20 total hours making all my cars look how I wanted em to. Open server is back from NFS 2015 and it's as fun as it was back then, It is sad that this is the last Ghost Games NFS and it's being handed back to Criterion Game which just in my personal opinion made the worst ones.
Final Note is give it a go if you haven't and 
Jonny cruz voices a main character you may recognize his voice from Overwatch as Lucio or Ghost Recon Wildlands as El Boquita 


As a side note I raced the server scheduled maintenance for this plat lol

Personal growth

 

Wow. I'm speechless. This game was an incredible roller coaster of emotions. I'm sure others have noticed but this game reminded me a bit of Journey. I'll just leave it that and that's no criticism whatsoever. I think this game was fantastic and I was impressed how they handled a serious and complicated theme as grief. The whole experience was beautiful and poetic from the graphics, levels, soundtrack, game-play and ending. This was a fun platinum not really difficult but worthwhile and I'm glad I bought it. Wonderful little gem!
