Weekend, what are you playing

The weekend is here again. What are you playing?

Migoy: Beat the original Dissidia 013 story and did the reports that I've unlocked. Gotta grind before I can face 000. Just unlocked Prishe and Gilgamesh and they are fun to use. Also booted up Muramasa The Demon Blade on the Wii. I beat Kisuke's story last year but stopped at half of Momohime's story. Dammit, I want the Momohime figure again.

Arlie: I just finished Portal 2 yesterday. The whole game was really fun. For those who haven't played it yet, you have to at least give it a try! From GLaDOS' sarcastic lines and fat jokes to Wheatley's British humor who is actually voiced by Stephen Merchant (Hot Fuzz, The Ricky Gervais Show). Having a NPC companion who blabs too much really adds to the experience. I also liked the ending song. Watch out for those hidden easter eggs.

Portal: "The cake is a lie."

Portal 2: "The deer is a lie."

I don't want to spoil any more shit to you guys, but all I can say is "Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, holy fuck you're in space!"

You can watch parts of my playthrough here. (4 hours total including long pauses for pee breaks)

Quash: Did a full Mortal Kombat marathon! We started off by watching the first Mortal Kombat movie(hilarious) then we popped in the new Mortal Kombat and did an all day 4 player tag versus matches. We were set to watch the second movie but couldn't stop playing. It was technically 2 versus 2 and the tagging system seemed similar to Tekken Tag's tagging system, pressing one button swaps in your teammate.

It was a lot of fun and we were constantly shouting at each other because there's no coordination with the tagging at all. Some people just tag themselves out without telling their teammate catching them off-guard or them eating a X-Ray. When i got back home i continued to play some more Mortal Kombat. Did a few challenges in the Challenge Tower(up to 45 now) and practiced with Nightwolf. He might actually be my main character for Mortal Kombat.

Great game and i'll have a full review on it soon.

Nintendo will no longer produce DS Lites

An internal GameStop memo is purporting that the DS Lite is no longer in production and will no longer be available when current stocks run out. Stores have also been instructed to remove any promotional materials for the product. Sad news if your looking for a region free Nintendo handheld.

Never fear for the DSi and DSi XL are still around and are obviously better than the DS Lite. As for the region free DS gaming, the 3DS's backwards compatibility can cover that.

Capcom! I love you again! Mega Man Legends 3 Flutter Music

When Capcom announced that the development for Mega Man Legends 3 got halted indefinitely, I was devastated. One of my favorite video game series of all time finally gets a third game before Inafune left Capcom and then Capcom saying that its halted and shortly after, Mega Man Universe gets cancelled. I was scared that MML3 would never see the light of day.

Capcom has come back saying that they have continued dev work on MML3 and gave us a delicious amount of gameplay videos lately has made me learn to love them again. After listening to this, I was reminded as to why I really enjoyed the Mega Man Legends series even though it deviated so far from the classic 2D side scrolling Blue Bomber.

Remix of the flutter music from MML3 found on the official website http://www.capcom.co.jp/rockman/dash3/

If that didn't bring your nostalgia level to maximum, I don't know what will. That said, maybe these videos will do the job of hyping you up for the game.
