FFVII for the first time in 10 years or so. Only about 10 hours in, but I'm enjoying it. The story is still amazing, although the battle/ materia systems seem overly simplistic now.

I've been playing Fire Emblem 4 for the first time.
I've also been replaying Xenogears and Persona 2: Eternal Punishment.
Positive aspects: It is Kingdom Hearts.
Negative aspects: It froze for me 4 times during day 1.
Kingdom Hearts never froze for me on PS2 in 10 years.
Finally made some progress on Final Fantasy IX, although it's Beta weekend for a certain other game and that'll probably mean I play that for the days that it's up.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
Darksiders 2
I just had the most epic boss fight in my gaming history.

Yep. You are right.

I'm about to beat Deus Ex, and I've also been playing some Crusader Kings II (Elder Kings mod) and Torchlight 2 on the side. When Hux and I were together recently we played and beat Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance, as well. We started Dark Alliance II but they had some terrible game mechanic that we didn't like so we stopped almost immediately xD
Those Dark Alliance games were great. I miss them now. And I want to play Champions of Norrath, again.
I'm still playing New Vegas. Rocking Joshua Graham's smurfing magnificent and beautiful armour with some lucky shades and a First Recon beret. Got 10 Intelligence, 10 Agility and 10 Luck, and have maxed all of the skills I routinely use. I'm currently using the Survivalist's Rifle, because it's cool, and the Gobi Sniper, because dem crits, man. Dem crits.
I have Bioshock: Infinite right there, waiting for me, but I promised my friend we'd play it together.
i can fi-na-ly start playing DMC
I could give you my thoughts on the game if you want. They aren't necessarily positive or negative mind you.
Eyyyyyyyyyyyyy

i would like to hear yr thoughts...But only if you dnt give any spoilers about the story!
Oh you know it ^^I can see that you are enjoying the games yourself, looking at your sig and avatar.I could give you my thoughts on the game if you want. They aren't necessarily positive or negative mind you.
Which one are you starting with?
Devil may cry 1? 2? 3? 4?
The reimagining called DMC?
They all have their interesting quirks.
Edit: oh, the remake eh? The acronym as a name makes it hard to tell xD
Its quite a curious one that has a near universal hatred from the "hardcore" dmc community.
Most of its purely an exaggeration though.
Let me start with the meat of dmc.
The combat IS dumbed down sadly. The depth is mostly gone. But that isnt all bad.
Its simplified, but a newbie into dmc wont notice, its fast fluid and fun. Its gorgeous to watch as well.
The bosses... Okay the game lacks many bosses, and the ones there arent very good or challenging.
Their designs are really cool... But sadly they lack replayability.
The story is fine, dont worry about that.
The game is also stupidly easy to get the highest ranking on, which kills replayability overall and doesnt make you strive to improve.
Also, there is an elemental portion to the combat. This goes as such "enemy is red, you can only hit him with weapon 'x'. Stuff like that. Its my biggest gripe as i feel its a very artificial way to influence gameplay and limits combat variety.
Wow, that felt like a bit overly negative.
Dante feels great to control, the art design is gorgeous, and enemy designs are cool too.
Oh, the music isnt too bad, but thats a matter of personal taste.
Overall, its a great intro to dmc that lacks the massive leaning curve of the others. Its not the best, but its perfectly solid and i recommend it. It wont hold peoples attention as long as the others due to its shallow nature but its fun all the same.

i played DMC 4 (the one with Nero) before this.. what i hated about it is that you went from A-Z with Nero, and Z-A with Dante.. i dont like revisiting places like that :o(the story he told xD ).I can see that you are enjoying the games yourself, looking at your sig and avatar.I could give you my thoughts on the game if you want.

i was not sure if i wanted to get the new DMC since im not 100% sure if i liked the previous ones, and im actually not a hack and slash fan at all!
but after playing a bit on my bf's pc i was convinced ^^
so.. the 're-make' of DMC
i agree that it is way to easy to get S rank at the end of a chapter.
i had alot of trouble switching to the right weapon (Osiris and arbiter, on pc) when you quickly had to switch in the air, but on ps3 it going waaaaaaay better.
since ive only played 1 DMC, wich was mainly about Nero, i dont really know the 'old' Dante that ppl seem to prefer.
But i like this Dante ^^
