Generations Posted October 16, 2015 Report Share Posted October 16, 2015 (edited) Wait...I was going to say "it's not even out yet"...and then I checked. And yeah...apparently I've been sleeping. That was THE game that I bought a Wii U for, and for some reason I thought it released in November. Lmao. Just ordered it. I wanted to get the bundle with the yarn yoshi...but it costs so much more and it's just not worth it to me right now. I hate how expensive Amiibos are...because I really would love to collect them. Standard edition costs $49 on amazon...and when I put the order in, it went down to $42, because there is a prime discount on games. But the copy with the Amiibo costs $59, adds another few bucks for tax, and didn't have prime shipping, so it would have cost over $63, and would possibly not arrive until November 9th. I figured, *Censored* it...I'll just get the version that costs me $42 and will be here on Monday. Lmao.

Bronson Posted October 16, 2015 Report Share Posted October 16, 2015 Decided to play through Arkham Origins for shits and gigs. The combat really sucks compared to Knight, but there's some stuff I actually like more (crimes in progress, investigations, etc.). And there's no Batmobile, which is a major plus in its favor.

Crack. Posted October 16, 2015 Report Share Posted October 16, 2015 The cutscenes in Origins looked so good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightning116 Posted October 17, 2015 Report Share Posted October 17, 2015 The combat sucks in Origins? Well, I haven't played Knight but Origins was the same as City, minus the martial arts experts and overpowered shock gloves. I hate things that slow me down when I'm beating the snot outta low-life thugs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generations Posted October 17, 2015 Report Share Posted October 17, 2015 Haven't played Origins, but I was kinda under the assumption that it would be basically the same as all the other Arkham games in terms of combat. Is it that much different to the point that it "sucks"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronson Posted October 17, 2015 Report Share Posted October 17, 2015 Maybe I'm remembering the other games differently, but in basically every fight I only have the chance to do counters (one guy attacks, I counter, next guy immediately begins his attack, counter, rinse, repeat). It seemed like I was able to do more of the cool shit in the other ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generations Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 So, I did get Yoshi's Woolly World, and it's basically the best game ever. Just the right combination of fun and a challenge...plenty of reasons to replay levels that you've already beat (there are flowers, packages of yarn, stamps, and health pieces to collect)...so, to officially 100% it, you should aim to get them all. Just a great game though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shindol Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 AC Syndicate will get delivered some time today so gonna play that after work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lycan38 Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 Fallout New Vegas, so close to finally finishing it. If I get another save file glitch this close the finish again, its doubtful I'll ever (again) try to finish it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generations Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 ^ Just make more than one save. I never play games like Fallout, Elder Scrolls, Fable, Witcher, etc. without making as many saves as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost. Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 Just finished the Uncharted 2 platinum, moving on to Uncharted 3. Hopefully I can atleast beat it on Crushing before WWE 2K16 on Tuesday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgeofSandow Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 Just finished the Uncharted 2 platinum, moving on to Uncharted 3. Hopefully I can atleast beat it on Crushing before WWE 2K16 on Tuesday. I found Uncharted 3 to be far easier than Uncharted 2, mostly because of the UC2 final boss battle and that scene where you find that big guy on the train.

Graeme Jones Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 ^ Just make more than one save. I never play games like Fallout, Elder Scrolls, Fable, Witcher, etc. without making as many saves as possible. This. Make a few saves. It's what I did for my playthroughs. I have one that I have yet to finish. Doing a Legion playthrough, and nearly finished with it. Had a couple auto save *Censored* ups, but the main save is fine. I make a habit of saving before and after entering/exiting doors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never play games like Fallout, Elder Scrolls, Fable, Witcher, etc. without making as many saves as possible. Have done it in the past (and currently have a backup on an external drive). Even had my backups end up glitched. On topic Playing Thief, as I just picked it up on PS4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

liontamer* Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 I'm currently torn having to decide between 2K16 and AC Syndicate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generations Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 Meh...you've played one AC game, you've played them all (with the exception of Black Flag, which was actually unique). I guess the same could be said for WWE games...but 2K16 does look really, really good this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liontamer* Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 Yeah, I've been a fan of both series for a long time now. It is hard to decide but I'll probably go with 2k16. The lack of modern-day story in Syndicate definitely makes a difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
