[PS3] Guacamelee for PS3 and PS Vita

[Twigg4075]

Holy crao do I love this game. It's been a while since I've played a true Metroidvania type game like this. I guess the last one that I can remember was Shadow Complex and I loved that game too.

But this game has the humor aspect to add to that as well.

Just watched the trailer and this game looks like borrows ALOT of its gameplay elements from Outland.

just got a power that made this game a hell of a lot easier...phew.

 

[jms493]

OK fucking Javier the jaguar is pissing me off!!!!!:lackey:

 

[jms493]

BTW the cross save worked quite nicely...it is easier to play on PS3 on the television.

My buddy said he's thinking about shelving the game because it's too frustrating. He said there are some platforming parts near the end that are like Outland style but Super Meatboy/'Splosion Man difficulty that require crazy precision and string together several moves.

Btw, I'm very early on in the Temple of Rain and stuck. I have no idea how to proceed?

 

[jms493]

The boss fight vs Javier just took some thinking and some patience...after a while I came back and beat the shit out of him. Yeah I am in the tree tops and the platforming is getting tough but not meatboy hard...not even close.

 

[Twigg4075]

Never mind. I found an area I hadn't been to before and ended up getting a new power. Let's see where this leads...

 

[jms493]

ok...I am totally stuck on the tree tops....ugh.:crying:

I needed a game for my vita for my trip I'm taking on my vacation so I got this. A lot more fun then I thought it would be

 

[jms493]

I skipped the tree tops...I just couldnt figure out where to go at one point.

I am almost at the last boss...probably like 5 mins away. I am stuck in the chamber with these fuckers that shoot beams of light from ceiling to floor...3 of them. I can only imagine the last boss is a going to be a bitch!

 

[jms493]

Just beat it...not sure whats up with the ending. The last boss was not that tough..took a few tries. I think they want me to play through again or some shit. Not anytime soon.

I really like the game though...reminded me Castelvania and Ninja Gaiden. I actually liked the difficulty...nice to play a game that isnt a cake walk.

 

[Twigg4075]

I just hit the desert. I decided to try to cross-save to the Vita and it worked perfectly. I got 100% in the Rain Temple. I love that feeling of accomplishment you get when you figure out the series of moves required to access an area. Very rewarding.

 

[jms493]

I just did some research...you dont need to play through again. I think you need to get all the secret masks to get the best ending and some other shit.....but good fucking luck doing that.

Oh yeah it was really nice to use my VEETA!:cheers:

I had a glitch in the desert where I couldn't enter the room where they introduce shielded enemies, and I backtracked throughout the entire game up to that point trying to figure out what the hell I was missing. Aside from that waste of 10-15 minutes, this game is really fun. I just returned to Pueblucho.

Ok, so so how do I beat the chick that has been taunting you for the first few hours? Calaca's gf I believe? I get her down to about 25% health and she starts splitting herself. I try using the frog stomp and the uppercut to damage both forms but it doesn't seem to have any effect.

Also, I'm a dummy. I didn't realize there were so many additional moves you can buy/unlock. I just thought you had the health and stamina ones. I didn't realize until this morning that the menu scrolled down. LOL.

And on a related note, I had no idea that that Hell Yeah! game is a Metroidvania style game as well. Had I known that I would've bought it at release when it was in sale. This game also reminds me I need to get back to Outland.

I did a lot of juggle combos during that fight, and I didn't have much of a problem. When she split, I just focused on one of them and tried to keep it away from the other.

Ok, I thought maybe I had to turn into the chicken or something. I hadn't tried that yet. I've hit both forms several times during that part of the fight and it didn't seem like I was taking away any of her health.

 

[Twigg4075]

I beat her this morning. It was weird because the way her life bar works is dumb as fuck. You hit her and hit her but the life bar doesn't budge and then all of a sudden a big chunk goes away.

Now I'm working my way up the tree. There are some serioes jump combos required at the top of that thing. After about ten tris I decided to take a breal and I'm hoping to pick it back up tonight. I know I can do it though.

 

[padman59]

I beat Flame Face, and I've been focusing on finishing the side quests and 100%'ing as many areas as possible before moving on to with the main quest. The Caverna del Pollo was tough.
