    I just beat Dead Island and found it to be surprisingly enjoyable. The focus on melee, the variety of locations, the constant need to repair weapons.... all good stuff in my book. Sure it was clunky in parts and needed a bit more polishing but it did what Far Cry 2 was trying but actually made it fun.

    The other game I managed to finish in Sep was Fire Emblem:Awakening. 2 in one month!

    Am on to Trails in the Sky and Dragons Dogma now. Don't expect to beat either in October.

    Not that I can beat it, but im gonna give SWTOR another bash, see what they've added in to it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 877 ✭✭✭_Godot_


    I only beat Jisei so far. It's a visual novel I picked up in a bundle. I'm just started the sequel, Kansei.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 23,068 Mod ✭✭✭✭Kiith


    Bioshock Infinite
    Tales of Xillia
    Dark Souls (finally!!)
    Uncharted 2 / 3
    GTAV
    Journey
    Dragon Age

    Ahh the joys of unemployment.


  • Registered Users Posts: 81,736 ✭✭✭✭Overheal


    completion is so overrated
    I have finally put FTL aside though.

    I unsealed the wrapper off Mirrors Edge
    Broke into a little Worms Revolution campaign


    Still debating whether to open up Dark Souls after buying it at a bad price on the summer sale
    Played a little War Thunder and Star Conflict but those never end..

    Dragon Age 2 and Bully finished. Currently working on Demon's Souls, Far Cry 3 and all the half life games, now on 2, far better than the first.

    I was going to storm through Batman Arkham Asylum on WiiU this october and finally - after 7 months of failure - get my name on the board.

    So last night I did exactly that.

    And the front menu on the game says I'm only 48% of the way to completing it??? Son of a motherless goat! Looks like another month of empty promises and half finished dreams for me.

    Been on a crazy backlog cleanse lately got through Uncharted 3, Last of Us, Ni no Kuni, Tomb Raider, Sleeping Dogs and DMC

    The games I played on PC made the PS3 stuff look massively ordinary Sleeping Dogs especially was fantastic no Idea what to play next though, got Alan Wake, AC3 Tyranny Episodes, Batman AA and AC, Bastion, Bioshock 1+2, Borderlands 1+2, Crysis 1-3, Dishonored, Dust, Far Cry 3, Mass Effect 1-3, Sam and Max S1-3, The Walking Dead and Sonic Generations on steam thanks to the sales lol any suggestions on what to try 1st?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,469 ✭✭✭✭GTR63


    Oh lucky you. I'd go Alan Wake, Arkham Asylum then City, Walking Dead and then on to Mass Effect. The first 4 there aren't the longest but ME1-3 will take a while obv

    Accidentally started my own thread about the same thing so going to post in here :o
    Just finished Ratchet & Clank quest for booty= Very short probaably 5 hours maybe a bit less, dont know how everyone feels about it but I liked it pity its not a bit longer
    Completed Uncharted Drakes Fortune last week= Dont know why I left it so long really enjoyed the series

    So what I have left to complete before I buy the PS4 is:
    • Uncharted 3
    • Skyrim
    • Dragon Age
    • Red Dead Redemption
    • Fallout 3
    • Dishonored
    • Homefront
    The ones in bold are the ones I intend to finish, I havent played Dishonored our Homefront so not sure if Id like them.
    Found Fallout to difficult and got stuck on a boss in Dragon Age I just couldnt kill so pretty much gave up on them along time ago, saying that If I complete the others I might start afresh with these games


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,780 ✭✭✭eddhorse


    Just finishing Giana Sisters Twisted Dreams. 2 more levels.

    Started Dragons Dogma but will be a time consuming RPG.

    Only finishing one PS+ game a month which isn't too bad in my average gamer eyes.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,295 ✭✭✭ionapaul


    Finished Bioshock Infinite last night, took me quite a while as I didn't have much time to devote to gaming over the past five weeks. I thought it was brilliant, the ending was awesome. Gonna check out the ending thread now!

    Very close to finishing a co-op run through of Lego Batman 2 - that's a lot of fun as well.

    Not sure what single player game I should start next, I have so many of them to choose from.

    I finally finished a game....Its the first time in months that I have actually done that. I seem to be going through a slight attention deficit period at the moment.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,686 ✭✭✭Danger781


    Finally finished Alan Wake.. Now the question is do I go for the achievements now, or do it at a later date..

    Working my way through Final Fantasy IX on the Vita at the moment. Loving it apart from the stuttering audio in cut scenes.

    Still a beautiful game after all the years!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,885 ✭✭✭DuckSlice


    Have to finish bioshock infinite, have started it but didn't really get into it at the time, will give it another go this month hopefully. Also have resistance 2&3 to finish. Never even played them but I liked the first one.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,160 ✭✭✭tok9


    Been a while since I've posted in one of these. (Think it was February even) and I remember posting I'd try and finish Persona 4 Golden :p

    I've finished Killzone Mercenary this month.

    After putting another 40 hours or so into Persona (Bringing me to 70 hours in total) I think I'm near enough to getting the good ending (Already got the Bad one)


    So this month I hope to finish Persona while also playing through Beyond Two Souls and maybe a few more Vita games.

    Very slow month for me. Just beat Ninja Gaiden 2 on the 360 on Warrior. Christ I'm exhausted. Fantastic game.

    Still haven't beaten that damn game. I usually coast through the game then suddenly one fight goes incredibly badly. A complete stark contrast to everything up to that point. That fight is usually the 2nd boss fight. One day I'll finish it...


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,160 ✭✭✭tok9


    Bought Deadly premonition so I'll throw that into the Backlog since I'll be picking up Batman this week too. :P


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,909 ✭✭✭sarumite


    Grr. Updated to windows 8.1 and had a serious problem with windows boot manager. As a result I have had to restore to a previous version of windows which means I have some of my saves:mad:. Oh well, maybe Novermber I can add another game to my list!! :(
