The "Currently Playing" Game Thread-Discuss Your Games, Vent, Give Props, etc

Made some major progress on MM Zero 3. I’ve only got 1 more Neo Arcadia scum bag to kill. On top of that, I just found out that Satalite Cyber Eleves can be used as many times as I want!! They won’t die!! W00t!!! :tup: And I can equip 2 at a time!! Fusion Cyber Eleves, however, do die after being used. I like how you can equip the Eleves whenever you want. You no longer have to be at the resistance base to equip them. Just open up the invetory menu, pick which ones you want and bam!! Done. And I finally found a friggin’ Sub-Tank!!! This game is pretty tough for me so I needed that sucker!!

Had my THIRD dream in a row about finding a copy of Z.O.E 2 : Second Runner, buying it, playing it and then waking up before I get to the boss. :sad:

Reggie, what arcade are you at?

Right now I’m doing the Challenge in training mode where you gotta block his two attacks and throw.(Thought I beat these, but don’t mind playing them again(?) )

I’m back in Club Sega finishing off the quest modes. Keep getting my ass kicked in the Sega Arena Tourney(Sonic Cup).

Man, video game dreams can be torrmenting. A few years back, I had a dream that I was besting that black car in the original Ridge Racer. Anyone remember how friggin’ difficult it was to beat that thing?! :mad: That dream shot my real dream!!! :tdown:

Right now I’m at Sega Arena Uptown arcade in VF4: Evo. I have to get 10 VF character emblems in order to enter the tourney. So far I have 3 but these fights are getting pretty ruthless. Even the lower ranked opponents should be feared because some of them are much better than the higher ranked fighters.

I’m always seeing new outfits on the characters. It is just so awesome how well you are able to customize each fighter. I hear VF4: Evo’s character customization options surpass Tekken 5’s.

Just placed first in the Sonic Cup. AI isn’t falling for the shit I would use to exploit it’s glitches like in the early arcades. Just unlocked Sega World North.

Yeah the customization is only a billiontrillionwhateve-illion and beyond, better than Tekken 5’s “customization”, on top of everything else VF has always done better than Tekken (everything).

So what do you guys make of that? Is it legit? Is it ZOE2 for reals or something like the VR missions in MGS? If this is all cool and all I’ll probably mod my PS2 for this game. Something seems amiss for being U.S.18.99…

Well this seems to be the real game so I think I’ll end up picking this up. Anyone want to tell me what this says? Can’t read Japanese.

HULK Ultimate Desctruction. Watch the greatness at Gametrailers.com. It WILL be one of the greatest comic book based games ever created. I will not rest until someone besides me plays this particular Hulk game.(*I seemed to be the only one here who bought and/or cared about the previous one…this one is guaranteed to be infinitely better, due to free-roam gameplay style, even more Hulk moves, and more destruction.)

Last night on UC2 —I was focusing on utilizing my “Fear” ability with Brock in various situations whenever possible. There’s something so satisfying about just shutting someone else’s powers down like that…I noticed the fear “energy ball” has a slight homing effect, making it kinda easy to hit someone…I wonder can it be blocked? I can’t remember if I hit a bot that was in its blocking animation with Fear before…

The BEST one—bot Arclite just picked up Udamage AND activated “Unstoppable!”…heh, that’s quite a dangerous sight—Arc + the purple and red aura meaning he’s even stronger + invincible! No problem for me…before he could do anything about it —“FEAR.” All that shit was gone, and I killed him with a Sniper shot. Niiiiice. Later on, I noticed Corrosion repairing itself with Upgrade…I couldn’t resist: “FEAR.”…then I killed that sumbitch.

*I noticed that Ra has “Flash”…heh, and I still killed someone while temporarily blinded by that ability last night.(*makes sense due to the egyptian mythology reference --Ra = sun god)

There are even more Neo Arcadia scum bags to take out in Zero 3 than I thought!! Passing the trademark 8, so far there are a total of 11. I even came across this awesome helment chip for Zero. When I have him stand still he recovers energy. I can just sit outside the boss chamber if I’m low on energy and get him back to full power before the big fight!!! PWNAGE!!!
:clap:

7 more VF character emblems to go before I can enter the Sega Arena Uptown tourney in VF4: Evo. Dudes are getting so much tougher.

Started ascension rites in UC2 and I can confirm that I now hate using Anubis. He sucks ass and is a little bitch. Low health, crappy abilities (except for heal, thank god since he takes damage like a little bitch), and relatively weak melee damage make for a lame character.
Having to play a Nali Slaughter match against Szalor was ridiculous. Szalor is the man at Nali Slaughter.
“Predator” + Nali Slaughter = PWNED (not even the invisible Nali are safe)

Arclite is quickly becoming my most hated character. “Unstoppable” + “Concussion” = Broken morale.
Not to mention you simply cannot win a 1-on-1 melee fight vs him since he does so much damage.

Even without having played online a great deal, I can already see some of the imbalance issues that Remy is talking about. They’re still not too bad though, as the game is still extremely fun online, which is much more than I can say for MechAssault 2, which is so broken, I gave up on playing it.

I just picked up Wario Ware Twisted today. Hahaha just as much fun as the first Wario Ware GBA game. Good stuffs.

Started playing Viewtiful Joe 2 for cube, just beat 2nd boss. I think I like this more than the first one.


Fuck. I got Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones yesterday instead of Twisted because Retro needs to have his strategy game fix. Maybe I'll get it this weekend if I decide to go shopping.

Shit, when did that come out?


Yesterday, my friend. Go get it when you have the chance. I'm only on Chapter 7 right now, but from what I've seen, it's just as good, if not better than the last one.

I still haven’t played the first Fire Emblem. There’s just far too many awesome games on the GBA. I still haven’t even come close to beating Advance Wars. I just finished the training missions a few months ago. And I have Advance Wars 2 just sitting on my shelf in shrink wrap. Man, I’m just one sad gamer.
:sad:

As for Wario Ware Twisted, I want that game so bad. The first WW was the best virtual crack since Tetris Attack. But I’ll be picking up Metal Slug 4 & 5 first.

What’s the deal with Fire Emblem anyway? What kinda game is it?

I’m so into Darkstalkers Chronicle… since my stick is fucked I’d rather play that than MVC2 on Dreamcast controller. =(

Outside of that I am also partial to Tetris Attack… I hope something like it comes out on PSP or DS so I can play on the run.


Fire Emblem's a strategy RPG. It plays just like Advance Wars, only in a fantasy medieval setting, if you want to compare it to another game.

more UC2 of course…more of me shutting down my enemies’ powers with Brock’s handy “FEAR” ability. I love it…it’s one of the main things I actually look forward to in each match now…I see someone activating any adrenal ability…or picking up Udamage…and I’m like a shark that just smelled blood in the water.

Today was more about using these virtual deathmatches as a good metaphor for reality…and each kill was so satisfying as I imagined murdering the entire human race, one by one…all with special powers and cool weapons…and the wall jumping of course. I imagine each head shot as the same on a real person, in real life, and it soothes my soul. It’s even more satisfying for me to put mostly human characters(*like Sapphire, Selket, etc.) in the game, so it’s a more accurate representation of my murderous rampage on the rest of this disgusting species. And of course…the more female characters, the better, since I have tons of hateful feelings in that area too. There’s something about pummeling Sapphire to death with Arclite’s “Unstoppable” glowing fists…it’s almost sexual to me; it feels damn good…and justified.

When Hulk UD comes out, it will be even easier to release my frustrations with this horrible world in a virtual environment. Words cannot truly express how much I absolutely despise the world, the way it works, and basic human nature in general.

Wow! And you’re not bitter about it in the slightest…
Sorry.

So, what’s with all the pent up anger and tension, Million? I had no idea you were such an angry person.
