The Arcade Random Thoughts Thread

The jump in gameplay from 1 to 2 is glorious.

I was QUICKLY reminded of the improvements.

I DO miss my pocket dimension of guns and armor though

Sharing this with the Arcade guys as well. This is Anaheim Ducks goalie John Gibson's new mask for next season.

Insanity on ME2 is no fucking joke... It was so much easier in ME3.

How far along are you? After the Human Colony fight, I thought that it got a lot easier. The Collector Ship is no joke, but I had an easier time with it. The main thing, IMO, is the Husks that fire Shockwaves at you (can't remember their name). Learning to take care of them and crowd control at the same time is imperative to completing the game.

I'm still towards the beginning. I got Mordin, Zaeed, Jack, and I'm in the midst of Kasumi's loyalty mission (wanted the locust smg)

I had the hardest time with Jack's rescue as far as the character missions, but that was when I tried it with a Vanguard. When I went back and did it as a Soldier, it was a breeze. Let me know how Horizon works out for you, because that was where I gave up as the Vanguard and went through as a Soldier. It was super tough as a Soldier, and almost impossible as a Vanguard.

Sounds good. I've been switching between playing my ME2 Insanity run and MGS Peace Walker until the Destiny beta goes up. I don't see myself playing anything other than Destiny once the beta is live. Doubt I'll get done with ME2 until after the beta closes.

Well I'm about 8-9 hours into Bully: Scholarship Edition now. Picked it up during the Steam Summer Sale while it was under $5 since I'd never played it. Absolutely loving it so far. A fun take on the GTA style of games. I wish there was a tad bit more story and these missions were tied together a little better, but still fun. However, I have run into a little problem tonight. I can't get a main mission to pop up. I'm not sure what's causing it. It's been about 5 days in the game and nothing but money jobs and the boxing challenge thing. I'm wondering if I'm needing to progress in classes first? Shop is the only class I haven't passed a section yet. I dunno. I just hope it's not a bug.

Every few weeks I jump back into DC Universe Online and wonder why I stop playing. Game is so much fun. It seems I contemplate either paying the subscription or just buying all the DLC. The thing about the subscription is because I have also been thinking of getting Final Fantasy XIV(If I were up to paying a sub). Anyone play Final Fantasy?

Girlfriend asked to fire up Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light last night. I really enjoy that game. Granted, there were times where I considered hitting her with a blunt object about the head area, but overall, it's a ton of fun and really gets a lot of mileage out of its fairly simple puzzle mechanics.

Finished Horizon. Holy shit that was intense, I honestly don't know how I survived. Grunt and Miranda went down halfway through the battle so it was one on one.

I really want a Nascar game. I feel the need to draft and make smart pit stops. Then when I win I want to do donuts and burnouts.

Welp, finally set up my capture device on the PC and got my PS3 and my PS4 hooked up and they run and stream perfectly fine. Time to get that Wii U set up as well. It'll be nice to be able to stream anything I want now no matter what console I'm playing on. Oh, and I'm digging the improved video quality over the built-in streaming the PS4 has.

Uncharted marathon soon? Quite possibly.

Made it to the Collector ship on my Insanity run. Mainly been doing loyalty missions, still have to recruit Thane, Tali, and Samara.
