Been playing Record of Argarest War

Anyone up for Bad Company 2, MW2, and/or Uncharted 2 this weekend?
Damn, I have a lot of games with the number "2" in them.

Just fired up Bayonetta - PS3 (I only have a PS3 so I have no choice here). After the first hour I was a little worried that this would be just way too hectic but Ch. 2 settled down just enough IMHO.

Will be playing that and possibly working some FFXIII hunts when the kids are awake.

I really enjoyed Bayonetta. Even if the PS3 is lacking compared to the Xbox verison. PS3 is all I have as well.

Played some Uncharted 2 online this morning.

Did you have the same reaction to the first hour of play? I also installed it after playing through the first chapter, seems to really have helped loading times.

**thejnc** · 05-07-2010 03:28 PM

I already knew from reading reviews that the game just starts with chaos all around So I was expecting that.
I didn't get the install option till I was about 2/3 the way done. But it does help with loading times. I didn't mind the long loading times because of the chance to practice combos. But if a sequel is aver made, I will pick it up. Just hope the quality is more comparable to the Xbox next time around.

Overall, I enjoyed Bayonetta. I, for the life of me, cannot beat the very last goddamn boss. I'm to stubborn to play through the last battle on easy, yet I've got my ass kicked enough on medium that I can't even think about putting the game in and finishing it. Thus, it sits collecting dust. I want to sell it, but I don't want to be a chump and let the game win. Ugh.

To be honest I did the same thing. But I ended up selling it. I spent 3 days on that last boss and couldn't win. So I gave up. Three days is too long for one boss fight, final boss or not. But I enjoyed the game up to that point.

Working on Neir and Final Fantasy 11.

It's a little tricky, but all I can say is, dodging is your friend.

That or go back to earlier chapters and grind out some money to buy up some item/ability power ups to see if that eases the pain.

Is there a specific part you are having troubles with?

As for the weekend, I'll mostly be switching between MH Tri and Reach.

**MA16v3** · 05-07-2010 11:59 PM

I'm playing Secret of Mana(online with BBM once we get a server set up) and Seiken Densetsu 3. Roms are wonderful things.

I'm a wuss and suck at twitch reflex games - yet I really enjoy them so I am playing this on Easy (though not Super Easy) instead of normal.

I have to say even with my basic skills I was beginning to think Easy was "too" easy. I haven't bitten it in a battle yet (just started Ch 9) and haven't used any items either. I'm not platting every verse but I am enjoying myself.

Now I think I am happy with the choice of easy because I HATE getting to a final boss and having my ass handed to me - especially if the game has been average difficulty up to that point.

I ended up playing Record of Argarest War most the weekend and am finally almost at the end of the first generation (it's quite long). Now, only 4 more generations to go.

Also tried to play Saints Row 2 co-op with upgraydd but my internet connection was flaky and wasn't able to get the game going.

**HuskerGuy** · 05-10-2010 10:35 AM

I did some trophy whoring with a buddy on SSF4. We got a whole bunch of the online trophies out of the way (10 ranked in a row, etc.).

Otherwise I played a little U2 and BFBC2.
