Popular Post DizzyDavidson Posted August 29, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 29, 2020 (Penultimate) Update: Tales of Xillia 2 (PS3) - 100% God of War 3 (PS3) - 100% Bioshock Infinite (PS3) - 0% => 34% Zone of the Enders HD Edition (PS3) - 100% Cat Quest (PS4) - 100% Rise of the Tomb Raider (PS4) - 100% F1 2020 (PS4) - 100% I finished my first run of Bioshock Infinite. At first I thought this game has done a step back towards a general shooter but the ending was definitely a WTF is going on thing that one expects from a Bioshock game. One thing I do not like however is that I'm limited to carrying only two guns at a time compared to all of them in previous games. I don't know why devs like to do that, they did it with Resistance too. I guess enemies now drop a lot more (of their own) weapons. Oh well it's not the end of the world. I missed a few missables... naturally. First I'm going to do the 1999 mode run (which I already started) then do the clean up. I think I'm still on track to get the plat by the end of the challenge. On to the final push everyone! 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Liioni Posted August 31, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2020 (edited) Last update! I didn't get as far as I would've hoped in Doom, I finished the story and started the cleanup, but my PS4 fans are going insane when I play the game so it's making me super tired. Kinda ruins the experience. I'm still planning on finishing it, but probably going to be 100% wearing headphones, haha. I'll bring Horizon with me to the next challenge but Thief and AC IV will have to stay hidden in the backlog. I do enjoy AC, but the movement is somewhat annoying from time to time and ends up killing the vibe. Even though I didn't finish them, I know I got a lot further in the games during this challenge than I would've without it. So I'm still happy with the progress and can't wait for the next one! I will bring in a few easier ones because Uni has started again and time will be even more limited, hah. Thanks for a fun few months and see you in the next one!

Popular Post Crispy_Oglop Posted August 31, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2020 Time for my last update of the Summer challenge with Blair Witch and Ghost of Tsushima becoming Platinum number 151 and 152 respectively. Ghost of Tsushima was fantastic and an absolutely beautiful game. I loved every minute of it and am already missing the game world. I'm not sure i'll return to it for that free multiplayer DLC, but the main game has been a blast to play through. Sucker Punch did a great job here. Blair Witch was a typical Bloober Team designed game - if you've ever played Layers of Fear and Layers of Fear 2 you'll know what i mean. They really like to bend your reality and perception in their games and Blair Witch is no exception. There were some neat gameplay mechanics in this game too, I loved the relationship you had with your dog and the interactivity you were allowed to have with him. I also loved the time mechanics with the 'cursed' videocamera which i thought could have been leveraged alot more in the game. That's it for me for this challenge, my Winter/Fall challenge list is way more streamlined and a bit more realistic i think. Hope to see everyone over in that challenge too Spoiler Resident Evil 3 Remake Lost Sphear Oninaki Last of Us Part 2 Ghost of Tsushima Those Who Remain The Blair Witch Persona 5 Uncharted: Lost Legacy Someday you'll return Life is Strange 2 Labyrinth of Refrain: Coven of Dusk Nioh Nioh 2 Death Mark Secret of Mana Trials of Mana Snow Runner 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took it easy and finished off Sakura Wars over the last few days. Now I'm ready for the Avengers game and the Fall / Winter Challenge. See you there!

Popular Post Xenoblast91 Posted August 31, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2020 FINAL UPDATE 6.0.: Alright, I tried to finish this list but my dumbass sidetracked so was clearly impossible to finish it. However, I obviously plan to finish few games latter but this challenge was good and I manage to remove few games that were present in the backlog long ago and wanted to beat them before the pile increase more than desired. Anyway, the final results are decent IMO so anything you want to add as feedback, suggestions, critiques or recommendations are completely open, LOL. Another World – 100% The Bridge – 100% Final Fantasy XV – 100% Call of Duty WWII – 100% Journey – 100% Ōkami HD – 100% Swaps used 1/2: Wolfenstein Youngblood – 100% The Last of Us Remastered – 18% LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 – 0% Detroit: Become Human – 0% Attack of the Toy Tanks – 0% I managed to finish all multiplayer trophies for TLOU, and its story mode needs to be done with patience, time and careful exploration as many collectibles are easily missed if you don't look properly for them. I've left it for later since now I focused completely on Hyper Scape in which few trophies were a pain, but now I can relax and play as I please. I had a very fun experience since June and enjoyed a lot all the games I played. Would give a lot more to beat everything in time, but I consider that this could have been improved better. Several games took me more of what I could expect, but definitely a very interesting time! See this as an absolute win though. Send good vibes to all and wish you can beat your games, happy hunting as always and stay good! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ArtisticGeek Posted August 31, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2020 Last Update 1: Enslaved Odyssey to the West - 100% 2: Punchline - 100% 3: Yaga - 100% 4: Children of Morta - 100% 5: Maneater - 100% 6: The Outer Worlds - 100% 7: The Testament of Sherlock Holmes - 100% 8: Sherlock Holmes Crimes and Punishment - 100% 9: Sherlock Holmes the Devil’s Daughter -100% 10: GreedFall - 100% 11: Ghost of Tsushima And at last GreedFall is finished! I really do love this game I feel in certain technical ways that it’s a stronger rpg than The Outer Worlds but it’s hard to compare the two since they have vastly different themes and tone. Both are really enjoyable games GreedFall just carries a bit of that somber bitter tone that Dragon Age Origins had, while The Outer Worlds is more humorous with its concept. I have to admit defeat but Ghost of Tsushima will be the first game I get to in the Fall/Winter challenge I’m actually happy with how many games I managed to get through starting out so late. Good Luck to everyone finishing up today hope to see you all in the next challenge!! 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post AuroraHistoire Posted August 31, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2020 Stella Sucks I manged to finish one more game before the event ended. Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 2 is the last game I managed to finish. Re;Birth 2 is a very faithful remake of Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2. It used the same combat system from Victory, added a new possible ending, swapped out some minor characters and added some "new" playable characters. There is also the addition of an infamous "mini-game" called Stella's Dungeon. It has all the fun selecting equipment from a menu, waiting around for hours at a time and hoping Stella doesn't die. The last dungeon takes Stella 25 real world hours to complete. This one feature and trophy took me a additional 5 days to get the plat. Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2 is my least favorite main series Neptunia. Re;Birth2 hasn't changed my mind on that. The change in battle system doesn't effect the gameplay too much; with the exception of making the Delphinus fight harder. L.A. Noire - 100% Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy - 2%Persona 3: Dancing in Moonlight - 100% 428: Shibuya Scramble Steins;Gate 0 - 10%Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth2 - 26% 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Stanners316 Posted August 31, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2020 Final update: 1. The Town of Light (PS4) - (3rd June) 2. The Council (PS4) - (18th June) 3. Ratchet & Clank (PS4) - (28th June) 4. Lego Avengers (PS4) - (2nd July) 5. Valiant Hearts (PS4) - (7th July) 6. The Walking Dead S2 (PS4) - (8th July) 7. Kona (PS4) - (27th July) 8. Erica (PS4) - (3rd August) 9. Shenmue II (PS4) - (15th August) 10. Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge (PS3) - (16th August) 11. Sherlock Holmes: The Devil's Daughter (PS4) - (19th August) 12. Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order (PS4) - 78% (31st August) 13. Steins;Gate (PSV) - 44% Just managed to sneak in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order with an hour to spare! Overall, I have to say it's an impressive game. I had my problems navigating using the holomap which did grind a bit but I particularly enjoyed the platforming and the use of the force to do stuff. I took a moment to take in the scenery when I was clearing up the collectables as well. Lovely. It was also my 75th Platinum. I didn't plan for the milestone, I'm actually working on Call of Cthulhu which I'd have preferred as #75, but I'll take "A New Hope." It's uplifting and it kind of counter balances #50 "I Guess it's Time to Roll the Credits." Who cares? I'm bullshitting. Here's my summary of the event: Most Satisfying - Ratchet & Clank Most Memorable - Kona Honourable mentions - TWD S2, The Town of Light, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, Erica It's been great to be part of this again! Lots of good inspiration all over the place. Backlog goes down by 12, and then back up again by 23. See you in the next one! Take care. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got the plat in Bioshock Infinite, it took me 3 runs. In the end I didn't have time for the DLCs. I did start Clash in the Clouds, however I didn't get very far. I'm really happy I was able to do this much considering after 2 months I only had one game done. I think I have chosen some pretty good games, I had a lot of fun with them. Thank you for making this challenge once again and for everyone's updates, I enjoyed reading them. I won't be joining the Fall/Winter Challenge but I will follow it like always. If there's anything I can help with in that challenge just give me a shout-out. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
