Weekend, what are you all playing?

The weekend graces us once more. Time for excessive and uninterrupted grinding, multiplayer fun (online and local), training mode for all you fighters out there. Tell us, what are you playing?

Migoy: Been kind of a slow week for me when it comes to video games but I have indulged myself into some more Dissidia 012 Duodecime: Final Fantasy. Beat  the stories of Tidus and Zidane. Grinded a bit doing some party battles and started Bartz's story. Though the game is for the most part very similar to the first Dissidia, if you've played the first game as much as I have, the differences and tweaks in the new game are enough for you to notice them and change the way you play. It's a great game and encourage you all to try it, especially if you are a Final Fantasy fan. Cross-over stories are mostly bollocks but c'mon, who doesn't want to see Cloud face off against Squall?

Quash:

Finally reached level 30 in DC Universe Online. now the grinding begins getting the best gear possible to be able to join raids and certain alerts. This is where i find out if DC Universe Online is worth the buy. Leveling was actually a blast since mostly everything is voiced and you get to fight alongside your favorite Heroes/Villains. But the real test for any MMO is if the end-game is worth the $15 dollar monthly subscription. So far i did a few duos( an instance that requires only two players) so i can't say for sure yet if end-game content is good. I still have a few weeks left in my free month so we'll see.

Vision Game engine running on the NGP

Trinity.net just released a realtime demo of their Vision Game engine running on NGP and i wasn't really impressed with what i saw. It looks ok but i'm positive NGP can do so much better.

This is only one of  the many engine's to be used for the NGP so don't get all depressed about the NGP all of a sudden. We'll see more footage of how powerful this device can be.

What do you guy's think though? looks good? nice improvements?  We'll just have to wait and see at this year's E3 because Sony will be all about the NGP.

Weekend, what are you all playing?

Well the weekend is upon us again and you know what that means. Vidj00 games! What are you playing? Migoy: I got the Lightning badge in Pokemon White so I'm half way to the league now. Sunday is my Special Day in the Dissidia 012 Duodecim: Final Fantasy calendar so the sound of leveling up after almost every battle is as satisfying as ever.

My Nintendo Wii has gotten some love this weekend. Aside from some TvC (Tatsunoko vs. Capccom: Ultimate All-Stars) action, I replayed Spider-Man: Web of Shadows. I've beaten it before but got the good ending so now I'm working to be completely evil and see how things go. The story is still butt and as expected in an open world Spider-Man game, glitches galore but I found myself playing it through the whole afternoon and later again after having supper.

Quash: I played some split screen Call of Duty: Black Ops with some cousins after coming home from the beach and watched one of them get mutilated in Dead Space 1. I played Marvel vs. Capcom 3, before I left I practiced doing the Dr. Doom M&M loop combo for 3 hours to get it perfect.

Arlie: It's Gran Turismo 5 for me this weekend, finally had the patience to download those buttload of patches. I just purchased my Formula Gran Turismo car off the Online Dealership yesterday for 5,000,000 Credits. I'm currently at Level 25 A-Spec and trying to complete the Extreme Series to get the Grand Finale trophy. Hopefully I could grind up to Level 35 A-spec this weekend to unlock the Red Bull X1 Challenge

RGP #12 - Final 'Fantasy' Tactics

Random Gaming Post #12 Oh Delita. So this is what goes on in the head of the hero and "Savior King" of Ivalice. Imagining Princess Ovelia in many outfits of the job classes found in the game Final Fantasy Tactics. Perhaps a strange fetish for the Holy Knight but it takes all types to make the world go round I guess.

Weekend is over, what have you been playing?

"In case you were wondering, that's not us"

The weekend is over and I'm sure that it was the peak of gaming time for most of us. I spent my weekend over at my cousins' place and played a bunch of Wii games. Flailing and hilarity ensued for hours. I have also indulged in some more Pokemon White action as well as a bit off frantic dueling action in Dissidia 012 Duodecim.

What have you been playing this past Saturday and Sunday? Any interesting stories from your world saving adventures?
