Devia Eleven Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 Phantasy Star Universe: Ambition of Illuminus (PS2)What's your honest opinion about this game? I've been eyeballing this game for some time now, but I can't make up my mind whether to get it or not. AFAIK, isn't PSU one of those games that 's more about online play rather than single player? I enjoy the customization, changing your character's voice, height, clothing, race, species, etc. I am not familiar with online play, but I do understand that it costs to play online with an account. I have not played the original "Universe", only this expansion pack named AI. The gameplay really gets repetitive but that's probably due to the fact that I chose a human, and his or her weapons basically range from guns and swords. The dialogue is partially entertaining if that matters, it's much like Phantasy Star Online, but you have the ability to form parties with bots. The more characters you meet throughout the game, there will be more AI controlled characters you can use to form parties for optional missions. The optional missions are excessively generic and are only really taken for leveling purposes. There are some really pointless objectives that are seemingly impossible to complete. I got stuck at an objective which was generally a timing puzzle, there are a lack of guides available on the internet to help me, but the few that were in existence didn't really have the directions to assist me. The animations for my main character lack emphasis, it bothers me, but that's more on a personal level. There are ways to customize your pad and whatnot, and, there are some other things. It caught my interest for a short while but that one objective seemed almost impossible.
Inky Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 I haven't been playing crap. I finished fall out 3 and was disappointed that I was unable to finish side quests and such afterwards.... Hell I never even found the dog.
Agozer Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 Spent 5 hours on Burnout: Revenge today. Such a sweet game. Also: Fate/Unlimited Codes
Skythe Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 Hell I never even found the dog. I did but he died. I got tired of telling him to stay at the beginning of each dungeon as he gets hurt way too much.
Devia Eleven Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 Persona 4, still. I'm 8 hours into the game and it feels like the story hasn't progressed much.
Smilee Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 Hell I never even found the dog. I did but he died. I got tired of telling him to stay at the beginning of each dungeon as he gets hurt way too much.I just made him invincible so I can get ammo and stuff easier. It's just too much of a hassle to keep reloading your save to keep him alive.
Chaotica Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 Just finished Crysis, now moving on to Dead Space and abit of FlatOut - Ultimate Carnage on the side.
Inky Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 playin' a bunch of Skate, killing time and warming up for Skate2.
Agozer Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 Final Fantasy X-2. Slowly inching my way towards 100% completion.
garyoak99 Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 Tekken 6:Bloodline Rebellion It was great except for the fact that a button on the P1 side lost some of its sensitivity. The experience on the P2 side was perfect though the cabinet could have been the HD one that Japanese arcades have!
Devia Eleven Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 Devil May Cry 4 (X360) 3rd playthrough, now on "Son of Sparda" mode, which I am guessing is a more difficult mode. Hasn't given me any trouble yet.
Weirdy Posted January 6, 2009 Posted January 6, 2009 THPS3 for PC same as the ps2 version as far as I can recall
