[ALL] Post Your Recent Gaming Accomplishments

[Twigg4075]

I guess this can be mostly used for "I just finished game X" but feel free to elaborate on what you thought about the ending (with spoiler tags of course), what the game may have lacked, what you loved about it, etc.

Also, this would be a good place to discuss trophy or achievement levels, or difficuly trophies/cheevos that you recently unlocked.

You could even use the thread just to say that you finally completed a difficult level or beat a difficult boss that you were struggling with.

I'll start. In the past few days I reached level 17 in trophies, finally completed RE5 on PS3 with Swarley, completed the Lost in Nightmares DLC for RE5 with Swarley and completed the main Borderlands campaign on PS3 with Pad, Dizzle and my cousin (and started on The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned). Phew.

The only trophies I have left for platinum in Borderlands are level 40 and level 50 and I'm currently sitting at level 38.

You and Maynard, huh? Damn.

 

[Swarley]

Just beat Resident Evil 5 and one of its DLCs with Twiggly Wiggly. Pretty tough game at times, but was still fun. Going to try and finish Dead Space this weekend.

 

[Derrville]

Was playing MP 3 but the PS3s blu ray drive wont properly read games anymore so while the PS3 is off getting fixed I decided to beat Max Payne 1 for the first time since beating it 10 years ago. Also beat Lego Batman 2 with my nephew. Very slow gaming period around these parts.

 

[Twigg4075]

Well, add NFS: The Run to my list. I just finished it. Very fun game and some crazy ass moments. I highly recommend it for arcade racing fans.

Recent Achievements:

-I have all but one of the trophies for the set included in the PSN Digital version of Pac-Man Championship Edition DX.

Other than finishing up all the Time Trials for the Half and Darkness boards, all I'll have left to do with that game is figure out how to get better so I can annihilate my fellow VSNers' scores.

-I technically beat the stock story of Borderlands with Twigg, Padman, my buddy Vermillion and Twigg's cousin Montto.

Like all great projects, this was done bit-by-bit, bite-by-bite until we finally beat the oddly easy Final Boss.

I still have yet to mop up some left-over sidequests and redo so quests I was declared "ineligible" for because my character wasn't "personally" that far into the story yet...

Super Odd Thought:

 

Which is weird in a videogame existential sense because the property that is my Hunter exists as a singular entity but is also split into a SP save as well as an Avatar for use in MP.

This thing does not and cannot manifest itself online without me playing but when I do, it's still limited but what the game's programming deems as what worthiness it has in order to recieve the correct amount of XP, etc.

The game is not as free form as one would preceive/be advertised as but thus is one of the limitations in all videogames.

/I'd rather be stoned than sober thinking of this just now

Awesome thread, Twiggles.

 

[kmanharris]

Just beat Batman: Arkham Asylum. I have to go through the challenges and finish off the riddles. I have 1 challenge done and about 35% of the riddles.

Such an awesome game.

 

[kmanharris]

Such an awesome game.

It is a lot of button mashing but it's awesome button mashing. Not once did I find it to be boring.

 

I had a bitch of a time defeating Poison Ivy. She was the hardest boss IMO.

I also had "fun" unlocking the mano y mano trophy. It took me a good 45 minutes to kill a titan without hitting it with a batarang.

 

[Twigg4075]

Awesome thread, Twiggles.

Maybe we can finally play R&C tonight and wrap that shit up? I sent you a message the other night that you ignored.

Fucking you and Bomber and your beisbol.

You messaged me at 1:30AM, fucker! :giambipls: <--- he's bitch slappin' you

Went to bed.

But yeah, we definitely need to finish (and Plat) that game! :yep:

You've been so tied up with Borderlands and NFS: The Run, though.

You could've at least acknowledged me dick face.

How I beat it in spoilers

 

The first half was pretty easy once I figured out how to dodge the stupid ass poison ivy.

For the second part, as soon as she calls in her guards run up to them and knocked them out. You should hit them when they are on the edge and 3 hits will knock them out and over the edge. Once the other guys come at you, avoid them and they usually get caught up in the poison ivy. This will daze them and you can knock them out when they are on the ground. For hitting Poison Ivy when that eye thing opens up, start at the left side of the screen. You have to run right to avoid the fire balls and as soon as she throws the 2nd fire ball, throw the quick batarang while running. DON"T STOP RUNNING THOUGH, or else you will get hit.

 

[Twigg4075]

I don't remember that fight being that difficult? But it was a long time ago.

 

[Twigg4075]

Well, chalk up another victory for the FOOT Clan. Pad, Jay and I just finished Zombie Island. Now onto Mad Moxxi.

 

[bluntside]

I finally ground my way to a platinum trophy for Tiger Woods 12. Yes, that's last years game.

My biggest mistake was not going with one round tournaments for the first "season".

 

[JayDizzle]

Pandora conquered.

Still need my 50 but until such time that Twigg, Pad, Montto and whoever else is willing to take arms against General Knoxx and/or clean up the 'Ned Missions, I'm good for now.

That last set of area just to get to the Vault and...

 

The Underpowered Pussy Beast

was a bitch because it's just walking and shooting dudes if they get too annoying.
