What games do I game? Final Okami 6 Edition T_T

-Recently beating Resident Evil 5 reminded me of how good it feels when you complete a game's story mode. I am now vigorously attempting to beat Okami (I recently got the japanese only soundtrack). It took a while to get a grasp on what was going on in the game (last time I really put some hours into it was last April), but I finally got the story to take off again and It's such a good experience. I can see now why so many critics have been raving about it.

-I also had Final Fantasy 6 for the GBA for a few weeks now and I find it a lot more entertaining then Pokemon Platinum. Maybe this is because the only game I've ever played similar to FF6 is Chrono Trigger, which I have also yet to beat, and I've played so many Pokemon games the formula is getting to me. I also really like the main protagonist of the game. People make such a fuss about FF13 having a girl. They should play Dissidia!

-A game I wish I could play is Suikoden 2 for the Playstation. I always hear good things about this game and hope that one day it may be ported or put into a classics collection.



BTW: Sorry for posting late. I had some trouble the other days.

What games do I game? Resident Okami Edition

-I've logged over 11 hours on Resident Evil 5 this week. I beat the game somewhere around 9 hours, but now I've been farming for gold so I can get the ridiculous weapons. Not a scary game at all, if you want a fun co-op action game and you're terribly bored of Left4Dead then check this game out.

-I wanted to finally beat that crazy yet beautiful wolf rpg, Okami, on the PS2. If you missed out on this great game I think you should go play it before it's too late. Definitely one of the best Ps2 games out there, this game brings the much needed innovation the Zelda franchise can only hope for. Oops...Did I say that? I just feel that Nintendo is currently thinking about one thing lately.

-I've been watching a lot more anime than week than gaming games. Sorry! T_T

What games do I game? Weekly T_T

-I've recently gone into a "I have to actually beat these games" mode and have progressed through a good chunk in Prince of Persia for the Xbox 360. A lot of reviewers felt this game was too easy and consumer friendly and penalized it very harshly. I feel they overexaggerated about this aspect of the game. I love the game's artistic direction and love taking in the view as I platform through the world flawlessly. The battle system is fun and keeps you on your feet and the AI for you travel companion, Elika, works out to your benefit as she is more of an asset than an annoyance.

-I had free time on the road and was able to play Big Bang Mini! An extreme vertical shooter with clever mechanics and a charming presentation I had exciting time playing it. I think anybody who is a fan of the genre should check this one out.

-My friend asked me to get Killzone 2 but in return he's getting Resident Evil 5 today. We were able to play a few matches and I can't explain how amazing I feel about the online play. A single match can have up to 5 rounds of different game types such as capture the flag or territories and each of these rounds can be up to 25 minutes each. The results are you can choose to play either a quick round or play multiple rounds with the same people for hours trying to win the overall match. Playing the latter puts a sense of importance and meaning into your victory as you put so much effort in. The game also runs great, has a varied assortment of weapons, fun character classes to choose from, and gives you the feel of playing with many more people that are actually playing.

I've also had a little time to play Street Fighter 4 and Bioshock, but what about you? What games are currently slipping down your bib?

News Games Every Week!: Resident Madworld Edition

Did you know that games come out every week? I know it's hard to imagine and equally as hard to see me playing and talking about each one. I am able to mention the more memorable games this week such as Tom Clancy's HAWX, Avalon Code, Madworld, and the action packed Resident Evil 5.

If you haven't had time to see what Madworld is like I recommend watching this video. I'll have more info on Madworld tomorrow, but I won't be able to talk about Resident Evil 5 until this friday. Capcom felt compelled to hold onto the game for who knows how long just so that they can release it on friday the 13th. Oh Capcom if only you didn't release such good games I would swear to never come return to you!

What games do I game? Weekly T_T

Dear Sam,
I am a huge fan of your blog and have always wondered what games do you play every week while writing your fantastic material and dealing with your manga?

Love, Rihanna

There you have it folks. Let the first weekly "What games do I game?" begin!

-I've been playing a few rounds of Ninjatown with full intent to beat it. My business ninjas shall overcome all!

-Finally got a chance to sit down and play the Halo Wars demo. I was at first impressed by the visuals and mechanics until it occurred to me that it really is just a dumbed down version of Starcraft. It's too easy and simple minded so stick with PC if you want to play an RTS. If you really like Halo though...go for it.

-I honestly attempted to at least beat a stage this week on "Prinny: Can I Really Be the Hero?", but to no avail. I've very proud of my 2D platforming skills but putting my PSP next to my cat and crying on him would probably have the same result as actually trying to beat this game.

-Other noteworthy games played are Street Fighter 4, Guilty Gear XX Accent Core, Capcom vs. SNK 2, and Peggle Extreme. I still love honing my fighting skills and what's wrong with a little manly ball action here and there?

So what games have you been playing?
