Quite the impressive sounding
collective set from your d-
escription, Kenseiden!
And for the price i-
ndicated, I can-
not see whe-
re you ca-
n go w-
ron-
g!



N-
ow th-
at's a gam-
e I haven't hea-
rd of in a while whi-
ch happens to be one of
my favorite series (Timespl-
itter). They could have done am-
azing thing on now-gen systems. I mi-
ss Free Radical as they were at this time!

[Roemello]

Finished the Witcher 3, but it was too fun to stop! Doing it again on New Game +

[soloist]

Congratulations on completing Witcher 3, Roemello!
I've heard that the world is so vast and there's so
much to do that even upon completion, ther-
e is still much to keep players occupied.
I'm assuming that similar to Skyrim,
there are random quests that wi-
ll keep popping up, or does t-
he story continue from th-
at point on? Any other
games on the horiz-
on for you right
now? Perha-
ps any of
these:

(recently released titles...?)

-Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain
-Mad Max



I
have-
not been
gaming much
as of late... just m-
icro-gaming with the PSP
playing classic Sega Genesis a-
nd NES titles. I was trying games I
have never played before, so I was testi-
ng out a few that I've always been curious about:

-Chuck Rock
-Awesome Possum
-Red Zone
-Aero the Acro-Bat

It's been a while since I've dropped in... so my gaming is all over the place.

I've started streaming online through Twitch called "Too Damn Late" @ ~2:00 AM CT (Midnight PT, 3:00 AM ET, 7 AM GMT) Tuesday Mornings (a few hour after I get off work) to about 4:00 AM CT.

You can drop in at http://www.twitch.tv/TStodden OR check the steaming community calendar w/ the LRR community at http://bit.ly/LRRFanStreamCalendar2 (as well as my fellow members of the community). Just be aware that this is only my scheduled stream. I may do bonus streams at different times on Tuesday & Wednesday (as those are my days off with my current job).


Gaming wise, I've been playing Clicker Heroes on & off (being an idle game, it's pretty much a quickie game)... but I'm starting to get back into retro gaming with the thanks of Retro Achievements ( http://www.retroachievements.org ) as they added XBox style achievements to the old console games with their modded emulators. I'm considering doing more Choice Chamber streams, but that game requires an audience to keep things interesting (as they have the power to help or hinder my runs, making things dynamic). Otherwise, I might do some more Rocket League.

On the console side, slowly working away at Fantasy Life (3DS)... but that's about all I have so far.

[soloist]

Hey TStodden! It's been a while! Retro
Achievements sounds interesting,
so when I get the time, I'll ch-
eck it out along with the o-
ther links you've provid-
ed. I've been slackin-
g in terms of gam-
ing aside from
messing aro-
und with
the oc-
assi-
onal re-
tro title on
the PSP that a
friend of my adju-
sted a long time ago.

-Pro Wrestler (NES) showing one of my brother's for nostalgia's sake

I'll be back
on Sund-
ay, o-
k?

(and I plan to check out your Twitch page more often...)

[Roemello]

Been a while since last update... since Witcher, I got into Guitar Hero Live for a while, then jumped into Fallout 4 and have been helplessly addicted to that since. Such will be my fate until absolute completion... someday

[KenseidenXL]

SOCOM: Combined Assault.

[soloist]

Congratulations with your latest additions, Roemello!
I knew that Fallout 4 would claim your free time,
just as addictive as Skyrim was... but even m-
oreso due to the various customization op-
tions available with junk being golden
in terms of value depending on wh-
at you're building or trying to cr-
eate. I hope I'll get into Fallo-
ut 3 one day (still haven't o-
pened it... laughs). Wha-
t do you think of SOC-
OM: Combined Assa-
ult, Kenseiden? T-
he last game in
that series I h-
ave played
was par-
t 3 on
the
PS2 lon-
g ago (whic-
h I liked from w-
hat little I've played).
For the moment, I'm just
messing around on Smash Bro-
s 3DS now that I've finally been able
to acquire a New 3DS and it breathes new
life into all of the 3D games for said system. B-
eing able to see the games a bit larger and the fast-
er loading times help considerably too! Next I may try this:

-Super Mario 3D Land (3DS)...

[Roemello]

Completely finished Fallout 4 at long last.. and like it's predecessor, claimed all trophies in the process Now floating around Guitar Hero Live, Witcher, Battlefront and Madden. Recently upgraded my PS4's HDD to a 2TB, so have some breathing room for whatever new titles are to come

[soloist]

Congratulations on completing Fallout 4 AND acquiring all
of the achievements, Roemello! I'm sure you had a bla-
st traveling throughout the Wasteland and complet-
ing the objectives required to secure those cove-
ted points. I'm not sure if there were AP's ava-
ilable for creating your own home/base, bu-
t did you try it out at all? I here it was op-
tional but not tied to any mission in pa-
rticular. It's great that you now have
the 2TB HDD available since I'm su-
re you could really use all of tha-
t storage space. What do you t-
hink of Battlefront? I doubt t-
hat you'd play it for the sin-
gle-player mode (aka tra-
ining missions). I'm stil-
l messing around in S-
mash Bros (3DS) an-
d a few downloa-
ded 2D 3DS re-
makes in th-
e forms o-
f these
title-
s!!

-Ecco the Dolphin 3DS
-Streets of Rage 3DS
-Gunstar Heroes 3DS


I
also
plan to
make more
progress in Sup-
er Mario 3DS Land!

[Roemello]

No achievement points for me.... all about the trophies, now! I switched this generation.... mainly a Playstation guy now. On first hand experience now having all the next gen systems, I definitely made the right choice from the start... PS4 blows the rest away. But yeah, there was a trophy related to settlement building... having to bring one up to 100% satisfaction amongst your residents. Probably the most tedious one in the game, but I did it! Settlement building in itself was fun and I enjoyed making all of them throughout the Commonwealth, but the 100% thing sucked Now just awaiting the first DLC to pop out.

As for Battlefront.... actually I am playing the single player because I suck right now and need the practice I haven't played a Battlefront game since I think part II on the Playstation portable, so it's been a while.

EDIT: didn't take long before I jumped to the online multiplayer.... which is a lot of fun and quite addictive!! Definitely where the meat of the game really is. Way more fun than the single player portion by far.

[soloist]

Goodness! What prompted the switch to trophies and the PS4?
Was it performance related or maybe the resolution? Jus-
t curious. I know the PS4 runs much more smoothly b-
y way of ambiance and uses less energy if memo-
ry serves me correctly. Congratulations on m-
aking the progress in Fallout 4 that you h-
ave. Did you get the app for Fallout 4's
micro companion game (aka Fallout
Shelter)? I guess the single-playe-
r portion (rather tutorial) wor-
ked well for you since you
needed the practice in-
itially, but yes, the
multiplayer is w-
hat the game
was mean-
t for. I-
s it
easier
to win m-
atches while
playing on the I-
mperial side? I've h-
eard that this was the c-
se but with the addition of t-
he latest DLC, a particular map
rectified this oversight. Is this true?
I believe the map is Jakku. If not that m-
ap, one of the others which was included in
said DLC pack. In my opinion, a single player ca-
mpaign would have helped this game to sell much b-
etter than it did. For me, it would have prompted my p-
urchase of a now-gen system since I've followed the series s-
ince the PS2/XBX/PSP era... and though I was not elitist, I enjo-
yed playing the single-player mode for hours at a time against bots
or watching one of my brothers play (since he wouldn't play against m-
e (laughs). I've been playing Smash bros (3DS) playing with Bayonetta and
Corrin, the last DLC characters and content for the game (along with the Cloc-
k Tower stage from Bayonetta). I've also been messing around with Double Dragon
Advance on the GBA. What an impeccable port and the additions are welcome as well.
What would have been great is if one could play the enhanced version AND/OR the original.



(still, the best version of Double Dragon I've played... even better than the arcade, IMO)

[Roemello]

Initially it was just because it was the first system to have an exclusive I wanted to play (inFamous as it were). Plus I liked the smaller size and read it was more powerful overall (definitely proven at this stage). Another thing I've later found is that games install LIGHTNING fast on PS4! There's practically no wait at all!! Which is big for me as I'm not patient when I'm ready to play and can't get the game started. On Xbox One it takes foreeeeeeeeeeeever to install games! I couldn't believe how bad it was!! I tried the blu ray player on it and the quality was horrendous... constantly pixelating out... no smooth playback at all. Aside from that, I much prefer the more streamlined PS4 hub.

But all the same, I had to have an Xbox one for when Gears of War and other exclusives come out that I'll want. I have Halo 5 already, just haven't gotten into it yet.

As for Battlefront... no. Both factions are actually equally matched with missions on foot. It is easier however to win the flight matches as Rebels where you get the benefit of shielding. Every time I'm on a rebel team, we win. Imperials almost always lose unless there ends up a lopsided team of ass kickers on one side

[soloist]

Goodness! I thought Microsoft had the advantage after what occurred with
the previous gen systems seeing as PS3 had installation issues and the
360 bested Sony by way of performance for this reason alone. I gu-
ess Sony learned from their mistakes. I kind of figured Microso-
ft would have problems since essentially, the Xbox One was
rushed out to compete against the PS4 and as a result, it
was patched together with features being removed an-
d included at the last minute, and the fact that it's
not a Blu-Ray player doesn't help much at all co-
nsidering the size of games now and how sm-
all the initial hard drive was. Thanks for t-
he insight. So I guess my next system w-
ill be a PS4 then of the two should I
get one. I remember reading abo-
ut how the Imperials had the a-
dvantage in Walker Assault a-
t first, but I guess that's b-
een patched. For the m-
oment, I've just been
playing Shining For-
ce Resurrection
of the Dark D-
ragon on t-
he GBA,
whic-
h I
forgot
I owned (l-
aughs). Aside
from that, just w-
atching demo matche-
s of Smash Bros 3DS now t-
hat all of the characters and s-
tages are out. I'll probably start pl-
aying Super Mario World since it's a ga-
me in the classic series that I've never play-
ed (ducks the tossing shoe... laughs). I still nee-
d to complete Super Mario 3D Land too. In time I guess.
