Just beat Pikmin 3 it is a really awesome game ^^

Don't read the below spoiler if you don't want to know if this character is in Pikmin 3

Wow people sure are beating it fast... it must be shorter/less time-occupying than 2.

Been playing a little Happy wars on my 360. Is it just me, or is this game hard to win at?
I have yet to win even one quick match.

Must be a teamwork thing i guess :/

In-between making an RPG Maker VX Ace game (which will probably be pay-what-you-want with probably no benifits to those who pay for it, so you'd be better off not paying for it at all), I'm playing mostly Kerbal Space Program, although sometimes I'm trying out other games.

Been playing through the original Half-Life, because it is a classic and deserves a good re-run every now and again. Also just got back into Borderlands 2!

ALttP Ganon is going dooowwnnn!

I don't know if my Zelda streak will continue after this. I've done three in a row, and am getting a little Zelda'd out. Also, the only one I have left that I haven't beaten* is Adventure of Link, and I'm a little hesitant to go at it.

I'm honestly not sure what to play next, though. As much as I'm getting tired of Zelda... I just want more Zelda...

Maybe I'll mess around on some NES stuff for a while or Genesis. Yeah, maybe Maximum Carnage, since I got that...

*Actually, I haven't beaten the original one, but I don't ever really intend to.

So I just tried some Team Fortress 2 this morning
(way late to the party, I know)

I suck with PC games, what with the keyboard/mouse controls and all, but even with limited mobility, I had a lot of fun

Not that I won any games, mind you,

I'm terrible


Also, wish I could find a prop hunt server that has active players ;/

If you want to win games go Heavy and camp the objective with a dispenser nearby.

At that point you at least have a 50-50 chance. :V

Honestly, from my experience it just takes practice. Switch classes for the situation (e.g. if your Engies keep being harassed by Spies, go Pyro), and just try different techniques. Over time you'll get more weapons and be able to make nice custom loadouts to fit your playing style. Studying others while you're dead (or hey, just be a spectator sometimes) can also help with getting used to general techniques.
I'd also say teamwork, but that's a bit hard if you're not playing with friends (which is like 99.9% of the time). Personally, I just try and fill any unused class, to play any offensive/defensive roles the team might be missing.

That said, after using a max FPS config I managed to get TF2 running (barely) playably smooth on this PC (averaging about 20 FPS with all players on screen?). It's still too laggy/jiggy to actually have proper fun though, especially in tense or high-action situations.
Guess I'll have to leave it until I get a better PC :\

The first Pikmin

It's the first time I ever played one--I've watched plenty.

Gee it's really difficult
I'm on day 23 and only have 19 parts

I already played Mario and Luigi: Dream Team for about 6 hours...

Pikmin is an amazing series. If you need any tips for enemies/bosses/anything in general just ask me~
One thing though, is I try to multitask as much as I can (while of course trying to make sure the paths are safe for Pikmin) and try not to get stuck on small things like too much in order to get at least 2 parts in one day, until I'm caught up, at least.

Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective

Oh god, I love this game. I played the iOS version, and I was planning on it lasting the whole week on the downtime when I had nothing to do, but I found myself finishing it in three days because it was so good. My only nitpick is that if you happen to screw up at certain points before "save points" it can get a tad repetitive if you don't find what you're looking for within the first few tries (and the text runs a bit slow, especially when ellipses show up).

But man, I haven't played that good of a game in a while.

Thanks for the offer! I'm treating this run as a learning experience.
I think I'm doing okay now, I only need 7 more and I have 6 days to do it : )

It's very entertaining--I'm really looking forward to 2 and 3 because they look BEAUTIFUL♥

Mario & Luigi Dream Team

this poop's great, yo
