It definitely had it's tough moments, but I managed to 100% it all, which is not something I can say of too many games.

*CyberCubed* · 06-27-2016, 11:44 PM

Been on a Souls marathon. First Bloodborne including the DLC, then Dark Souls III, then Dark Souls, and now Dark Souls II.

But man...am I burnt out. I love these games, but 4 games of essentially the same thing (I didn't play Demon Souls), and I don't think I can take anymore. Odd thing is I felt Bloodborne had the hardest bosses, while the other games only had like 3-5 bosses that gave me trouble and the rest I beat after one or two tries.

I just played them all for the first time this year in 2016. Initially avoided them due to the horror stories of how hard they were, but now after completing them all it pretty obvious they're not that difficult. As said, I think I only struggled with Bloodborne a lot because it was my first souls game and I wasn't used to it, but I still say it had the hardest bosses to adapt to after playing all the others.

I beat Far Cry 4, now I’m trying to 100% it (I’m on 97.something%). I’m slightly miffed that all the time I put into my arena rank was unnecessary, but I probably should have read the checklist more thoroughly. Not a total waste – I did get wicked good at killing people with weak-ass weapons.

Still playing Twilight Princes HD – the swimming controls are total arse.

I'm playing Super Mario 64.

*THGhost* · 06-28-2016, 05:31 PM

Just got back into Telltale Games' The Walking Dead Season 1; never finished it for some reason. Also still playing Doom; attempting to finish/collect everything.

*Icebot* · 06-29-2016, 07:25 PM

I just started playing Sonic Boom on 3DS for the first time ever.

*Cure* · 06-29-2016, 09:50 PM

Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE is one of those games that just makes me happy while I play it.

Too bad the localization is poor. So many voice clips go untranslated because they don't have accompanying text.

*AT-Man* · 07-02-2016, 07:41 PM

Yesterday I and my friends played Rocket league for two hours and got hooked pretty bad. Today we advanced to semi-pro level in a few hours. It's a fantastic game.

Currently going through the LEGO Star Wars series.

I loved the the first 2 trilogies, never played the LEGO Clone Wars game - really need to get back to the series first. LEGO The Force Awakens looks like fun too.

*Slade* · 07-07-2016, 01:13 AM

Haven't played anything on a console in a while. But, been playing a lot of Dokkan Battle lately.

*AT-Man* · 07-07-2016, 12:26 PM

I beat the alleged hardest boss of Dark Souls 3,

Spoiler:

*The Deadman* · 07-11-2016, 10:33 PM

Thanks to the Xbox summer sale, bought WWE 2K16, Saints Row 2 and Saints Row: Gat Out of Hell.

*CyberCubed* · 07-20-2016, 07:38 PM

Playing Doom PS4, its good...but these last levels are getting a bit repetitive. Needed a bit more enemy variety since you're basically fighting the same exact enemies in these arenas over and over.

*Icebot* · 07-21-2016, 04:52 PM

Just played Mario Kart 8 on Wii U! I raced online and got first place.

This was actually my first time playing a Wii U game.

Niiiice. My first online race placed me dead last.

For those of you who own Star Wars Battlefront, offline with bots has been added for free.

Its great playing the Walker assault and fighter squadron in single player against bots. If you need a Star Wars fix go give it a try.

AT-Man I SEEN IT Join Date: Jan 2011 Location: FIN Posts: 2,206	I beat the alleged hardest boss of Dark Souls 3, Spoiler: Nameless King. First tries were pretty terrible, but I managed to hone my skills by helping others with the fight. Eventually he wasn't that hard, and I think the title of the hardest boss goes to either Aldrich or Pontiff Sulyvahn. __________________ Through the Golden Door
