Now level 95 and in a guild.
Bought Rayman Legends wii u version yesterday at Future Shop for 19.99 which is an amazing deal iv'e been trying to find a copy for so long all other stores i always went to were sold out and never restocked.
Just played some more Hyrule Warriors and finished the last of the main Illustrations from the first 100 Skulltulas. Was only missing about six of them, but the last three were among the hardest to do. For the last one I had to absolutely abuse the Light Arrows.

Can't wait for the 5th, I want some of that Fierce Deity Tingle.
I recently got Game & Wario from the big Club Nintendo blowout and holy fuck, this game is actually really fun

...except for the Design minigame.
I finished Ib. It was better than I expected it to be!
Captain Toad is extremely fun. It's been a while since I've sat down to play a game for long periods of time like this.
I've started playing Chibi-Robo: Photo Finder since I got it from Club Nintendo. Gives me a lot of nostalgia. Smile
Battlefield Hardline beta. Here's some of my thoughts on it.


Pros:
- Gunplay's a little bit easier, faster paced than BF4
- Map design is good
- Looks stunning
Cons:
- Servers are still complete ass, how the fuck EA/Dice don't get on this just blows me away. Lag is crazy and infuriating.
- As a result the gunplay takes a nosedive frequently, will unload entire clips into people's chests but lag makes that not happen on their end.
- Half the time the gunfire audio doesn't even happen so you just die and wonder what the fuck even happened as apparently somebody unloaded a shit ton of lead into you.
- Hotwire while entertaining, the entertainment value doesn't last long. Driving cars in circles and such gets old kind of fast.
- Heist is essentially Capture the Flag in a city setting, you just have to open a vault to get the "Flag" instead of it just being available.
- Apparently muscle cars and fucking police cars can't go up hill if you accidentally stop at any point.

Overall, no fucking way I'd pay $60 for this. The new modes are kind of entertaining but Heist is just a capture the flag but in an urban area mode, and hotwire gets old fast. 10 years ago this would have been a $15-20 expansion ala the Vietnam one from Bad Company 2.
And the servers are just dog shit.
Like seriously, half of my deaths, a guy parachutes down, I'm blasting him with gunfire for a few seconds, they look up finally and I'm dead.
So yesterday I best the final final final boss (Spoiler:Satan) in The Binding of Isaac. I did this with Judas, and 3 hearts. When I first tried it, I used the Book of Belial to get max damage, however I died. Luckily I had a 1-up mushroom, so I revived. The thing is, I couldn't recharge the book, so I went in and then beat the boss, without the book. I mean I did have a bunch of other upgrades, but I had decided to unlock Samson on this run, so I skipped 2 treasure rooms. I literally had 3 hearts and no more lives either so I had to dodge everything. I got hit once, maybe twice. All in all I'm pretty chuffed with how well I did.

Also, in Hearthstone, today I won 5 times in a row in Ranked Play, all of which were bonus star wins (I had already won twice yesterday, so these were all winning streaks). This caused me to get to rank 17 (with 3 stars, so almost 16) which is the highest I've ever gotten. In addition, the last 3 packs I opened have all had legendaries; today's one was even a duplicate, which brings my dust total to 1615 and I can now craft a legendary.

tl;dr I'm feeling pretty proud in the gaming department Smile
Bought a couple of map packs for BF4, ones that my friend likes to play as well. It's cool to have some rad BF3 maps updated, and the other map pack I got is rad as well. On top of that, I've about gotten back to how good I used to be at sniping, which is my friend and I's favorite thing to do, got some pretty nice kills in today, including some fast moving targets. Feels good.
Playing Megaman2. I love the chiptunes.
Megaman 2 (before MM9 came along) was the best MM game ever... like man did I play that a lot (and man on man did flickering sprites make me mad when fighting that dragon...).

As for me, just reached Year 3 on Grim Fandango Remastered.
im on the delta episode on omega ruby. im sorta forcing myself to play this part of the game since i want to get the extra goodies after the whole thing

My favorite is Mega Man 3, personally.
I spent the past week revisiting Donkey Kong 64 since I haven't touched it in about thirteen years. Lately I've noticed a lot of people online deriding the game, so I was thinking maybe my love for it could be nostalgia talking.

Nope, I loved it. It was awesome that I had forgotten most of it too, because I got to approach the puzzles as a total stranger.

The only bad portions are some of those fucking minigames, man.
