What game have you recently beaten?

[potato]

I finally beat Okami a few weeks ago.

I just more or less finished Wild Arms 4. This game may possibly have the most cliches I have ever seen in a game. Thats not to say the game is bad, and the combat is fairly fun because of the HEX system,along with the platforming, puzzles,extras,and bosses(this is the only game in which I have gotten,and am still getting, my ass kicked by porno mags). This game has actually motivated me to play the rest of the games in the series(and has me hoping that WA5 is released in the states,I hear that improves on everything I liked about WA4). Also, I hear that not many people liked Wild Arms 3, so I'd like to hear anybody else's take in it.

I thought Wild ARMs III was really good, actually. It and V are the best in the series, in my opinion. It's not really like IV in the slightest, and it bears much more resemblance to the first game. But it has a pretty interesting story, an absolute ton of stuff to do, and puzzles that are actually challenging. No hex battle system, though, unfortunately. :3

I really didn't like IV. =/ It had a shamefully awful story, easily one of the worst this generation, in my opinion. Jude and Yulie both irritated me immensely, and not a single plot 'twist' caught me even remotely off-guard. About its only redeeming feature story-wise for me was Raquel; it was nice to see a female RPG character that was so far from RPG girl stereotypes. It's a shame that the other three party members were all taken from the big book of RPG cliches.

The battle system was nice. Nice enough for me to finish it, but...eh... Even that was ruined by the fact that the battles were way too easy. If the difficulty was bumped up a few notches, it would have been enough to save the game in my eyes. Still had cool boss fights, though. (it's been a while, but I seem to remember really liking the one with the guy who could stop time and walk out of the way of your attacks)

And yeah, if you liked Wild ARMs IV, you'll definitely like V. It keeps most all of the things that were good about IV, and throws away a great deal of what wasn't (it's still a bit too easy, though). Plus it actually feels like Wild ARMs again. That was something that always annoyed me about IV. Without the Wild ARMs title, it could practically pass as any other generic anime-inspired RPG...

Yeah,I agree with you on everything about the story,it's not all that great.
It didn't bother me all that much though. I'm gonna hold off on getting Wild Arms 3 so that I can get Atelier Iris and Atelier Iris 2 while I can still get them from the store.

On an unrelated note,I beat Eve of extinction. I hate it. I will however continue to play the game as I have nothing better to do with my time.

[dudeman23]

since I play like ten games at a time I have comepleted 5 in the past 2 weeks.

super paper mario ( best game ever )

final fantasy XII ( missing only one hunt but i beat the last boss )

metroid prime ( borrowed from my friend. pretty easy)

twilight princess ( pretty ezy, they should make a master quest like they did for ocarina of time ).

metal arms- ( about 20 hours but they are 20 hours of gaming goodness ).

[kupo]

Inuyasha: Secret of the Divine Jewel... Urk... Don't ask
And, MACH for PSP, which is a good game.

[Jetsetlemming]

Metal Gear Solid 2.
Eh. I think I understood it a lot more this time through.
Basing all the unlockables on the stupid dog tags is stupid.

Super C (NES), awesome game

[Beechbone]

Resident Evil 4, though only the main game. There are also couple of unlockables that are still to beat

[Banned]

I just beat Silverfall (PC) a few minutes ago, now to figure out how to switch difficulty levels.

[Howie]

Finished The Legend of Zelda: A Link To The Past (Virtual Console version, I still haven't found my old GBA copy ). Moving onto Ocarina Of Time.

[Saber]

Grandia, Medievil, and Medievil II.
Grandia was pretty awesome. It has one of the best battle-systems I've seen in an RPG.
Medievil II's ending was ridiculous, since I got all the chalices.

[Banned]

Silverfall, again, with a different character I created.

[Beechbone]

Finally I played and finished "Castlevania". Just 20 years after it's NES release Niiiiice!!

[KingGaz]

i completed yakuza a couple of weeks ago

[kupo]

Hotel Dusk (heh, just got the European release months after the USA release). Gonna write a kick-kupo-ku walkthrough for it during the next couple of weeks. Go me. Nice game.
