Started a new game on Pokemon Ruby.

Worst mistake of my life.
After trying to swap SD cards for my 3DS (just got a 32gb to replace the original 2gb) my save data was erased for Oracle of Seasons and Dillon's Rolling Western, so I guess I won't play those for a while...

Fortunately my USB-splitter came in on Saturday, so I finally have enough storage space to download Tropical Freeze Big Grin
Played and beat Pikmin 3 at my cousin's house. Holy hell the final boss is a prick. The extra missons ain't no picnic either. But multiplayer is a lot of fun and overall this game is on-par with Pikmin 2 for me. Really really good. Just wishing we could get the DLC.
Oh god yeah. The final boss was sooooooo frustrating. About 2/3rds of my Pikmin who died, all died from the final boss. >_<
The boss tends to attack more frequently if it is near to a Captain, so if you leave Brittany and Charlie somewhere out of reach, you shouldn't have too much trouble beating the boss by charging and whistling and just keeping Alph far enough away to avoid triggering an attack.

If you don't care about speed, you could just use all Rock Pikmin, which the Plasm Wraith cannot impale at all.

edit: So Tropical Freeze is really good. So happy I didn't let my bad experience witb DKCR put me off of it.
Beat Hitman Absolution, came back to Dishonored after I put it down a year and some ago. No particular reason as to why other than I kind of swamped myself with games. Took awhile to get back into the groove of it, with a few missions increasing the chaos in the city(for shame Gwen!) but I've gotten the hang of the stealthiness again, and honestly it's a much more fun way to play than just hacking and slashing your way through everything, though admittedly a little combat here and there is nice, and there will be times where I shall find my way to have some, trying to go for lower chaos now though, and I might have to replay the game to give it another whack if I end up with the darker ending.
It really is a fantastic game.

Yea I actually noticed those things. Currently I'm trying to get platinum rank on it and I just can't seem to figure out how the hell one is supposed to get it down to its second phase, let alone defeated, within 5 minutes.
Started playing Pikmin when I got home from work today since I realized I never actually beat the game first time around. 5 hours later and I'm 17 days in with 14 pieces collected.

Swooping Snitchbugs are so annoying.
Been playing Bravely Default on hard mode. I'm at the end of the third chapter of the game, and so far it has been MOSTLY manageable. However, the bosses at the end of each chapter are PARTICULARLY hard, either having various means of attacking multiple times, or in the case of the latest boss simply having attacks that hit ALL my party so hard they die in one hit. I'm not even sure how to counteract it.

Maybe next time I should use the Examine skill instead of just winging it. X:
Beat Dishonored, got the "good" ending, what a fantastic game. Definitely one I shall replay in the future.
For now though, I just got Red Dead Redemption off of a sale on the Xbox Store, so I'm going to replay that and enjoy every gawt damn minute of that amazing fucking game.
Finished the campaign in Jamestown, it was short but needing to beat all previous levels on Difficult and Legendary to unlock the third fourth and fifth levels respectively game it some length. It also helps you get into higher difficulties, so I'll probably be trying out Divine and Judgement soon as well. For now I'll be tackling the Gauntlet and bonus missions.

I also started Sam & Max 301: The Penal Zone. This is the first Sam & Max game I've played (I only own Season 3), and it's pretty great so far. It's sorta hard, I'm currently looking for the power core, but the humour makes exploring every nook and crannie much more enjoyable. Sometimes just Sam's voice is chuckle-worthy, I don't know why Tongue
I suggest get Seasons 1 and 2 as soon as possible. In my honest opinion, Season 2 (A.K.A. Beyond Time and Space) is the best Sam & Max game.
I am absolutely hooked on this game right now, can't put it down no matter how frustrated I get, heh.

Lethal League

It's super easy to learn and really fun to play with other people, it get's crazy hectic and awesome.
Buy it so we can play together.
I've started a new playthrough of the Legend of Zelda: the Minish Cap. While the game has its nice parts, I honestly don't like it as much as the other ones. Besides the three bell Darknut fight near the end, the other reason why it's tricky for me to complete this game is the Kinstone system. It's frustrating to get the pieces and even more so to find people to fuse with.
Just reached World 4 in Kirby Triple Deluxe. Man, Kracko's really gotten aggressive.
