Saturday Night Update

On 05/04/2013 at 10:24 PM by GrayHaired

Hello fellow gamers. I'm sorry I havent posted in awhile. I think if things keep going the way it is....busy! I'll probably just make one post a week and that will be on saturday night.

YOTS: I'm still playing through MGS3. I've almost finished my 4th? playthrough. I was trying for all the plants and animals trophy but yet again, I don't think Im going to make it. I believe I missed a few plants that can be found only in areas in the early part of the game.

So I am going to take a break from YOTS gaming for a few weeks.

Medal of Honor: Warfighter: I'm not impressed with this game. I really enjoyed the previous MOH but it seems that this one is trying too hard to add too much variety. I love the shooting parts but there is a car chase part, a running chase part, a boat chase part and Im at a car stealth part, which reviewers liked but I do not like. I just wanted to have a shooter. I think that even at $20 I over paid for this game. Just my opinion though.

Bulletstorm: I love this game....period!

SSX: I am liking this game. I have always enjoyed snowboarding games and ever since I wasted $56 on Shaun white Snowboarding, I've been waiting for a good snowboarding game. So at $20 I feel like I am getting my money's worth for SSX. Funny thing though, i started playing Shaun White again becaue it isn't the worst game I've played ( it's just not worth $56) and I am in a snowboarding mood.

Coolboarders 3

CB3 is my favorite SB game. I bought the digital game off the Playstation store and I am reliving old memories. It might have been the second game i bought for my new PS1 back in the day. I really, really enjoy this game. and BTW...Whatever happened to 989 Studio-Sports?

Best laid plans of Mice and Men: Playing MOH has gotten me into a military shooter mood. so the plan now is to play the three Call of duty modern war games. COD4; Modern Warfare, then MW2 and then MW3. All in order. We'll see what happens.

So that is what's up with me.

Game on and I'll see ya next week ~GH

Yeah, it gets annoying when games try to be everything to everyone. I just want to play Star Fox.

Joe: MOH could be a fun game if it just stuck to one format. I felt like i was playing Burnout paradise in one scene!

I love Burnout, so I actually don't think I'd mind that. lol

Not going to wait for the Legacy edition of Metal Gear? That's the edition I've been waiting for to fully enjoy the series as a whole.

NSonic: I'll be getting it and that will be just the push and motivation i need to kickstart me back into the YOTS campaign!

A car stealth part? How does that work? The only snowboarding game I ever played was the minigame in Final Fantasy 7. I put an absurd amount of time into that.

Aaron: You're in a car and a bunch of bad guys are in cars looking for you. You have to drive to safe spots before they spot you and ram you off the road...such as behind some trees and then when they pass you drive to another section and hide behind construction pipes and so on and so forth. It would've been fun but i suck at driving games and I had no patience for it.

I like Medal Of Honor. Not as much as Call Of Duty,but it was cool. But I read that they really messed up with Warfighter. Kind of killed the franchise for good. All the Cool Boarders games are fun. But my favorite snowboard game I've played is SSX Tricky. Just silly,goofy runs that get insane. But at the same time it's easy for most to play.

Wayde: I am almost finished with MOH WF and the shooting parts are really fun, the chase scenes and car stealth I just did not like. Plus the story held no meaning for me. I can not reccommend it @ even $20.00 , $5.00 I would buy it, just for the trophies.

I never played SSX Tricky but I did have On Tour for the Gamecube and it was fun playing as mario. I have On Tour for the PS2 and it is fun too.

Well, I think I've maybe spent an hour total gaming in the last two weeks, so don't feel bad. I go to work, I come home, I walk the dog, I eat dinner, and then I fall asleep in front of the TV on the couch. Sometimes I even wake up and manage to go to bed before morning, lol.

Tami: That sounds pretty much like my schedule. I still have metro's dog and I have to take care of her. I usually fall asleep reading in bed with the dog falling asleep beside me then I have to get up and take her out to do her business and then i go to bed. wore out!

I had to take a break from gaming due to moving. Back to Ni no Kuni for me!

The only snowboarding game I played to any great degree was FFVII's snowboarding, but I did try 1080 Snowboarding on the N64 and enjoyed that.

I always liked the Cool Boarder and SSX games.

Back in the N64 era there was a game called Snowboard Kids that I absolutely loved. I wonder what ever happened to that series..?

Coolboarders 3, damn those games were hard.

Which reminds me, I have to pick up SSX sometime; its cheaper now.
