The Guildmasters

Hi all,

Yep, playing RE 6 on professional, taking me longer than I thought it would, have done Leon’s and Chris’s campaigns and am on chapter 5 of Jake’s campaign. Should be done with it over the next few days, then I’ll just play chapter select to get some of the hidden trophies and the serpent emblems that I’ve missed. It’s been a good game and I’ve even enjoyed playing some online mercenaries.

After this, I’ll pop back to try and platinum my other outstanding games which are: Bioshock Infinite, Dead to Rights: Retribution and Rage, by the time I’m done with those hopefully there will be no more delays in the release of The Last Of Us.

Hope everyone else is enjoying their gaming experience, let me know what your playing, happy gaming.

Hi all,

Yep, I’ve decided to play two games a day now, playing Resident Evil 6 during the evening and Hitman: Absolution during the day (time permitting). Hitman is a great game that has come a long way since the first one, has a good story, great graphics, and many different ways to take enemies down, which keeps it exciting. It’s a very easy game to get to grips with, by the time you’ve played the first tutorial part the setup is pretty good.

Resident Evil 6 was a pleasant surprise for me as I didn’t think I would enjoy it so much, the four separate stories from a different member’s perspective really does give it variety, some are easier than others but so far I’ve enjoyed every one. I’ve played Leon, then Chris, I just finished playing Jake today and started with Ada but I’m having a few problems with that, I’m sure  I will sort it out eventually, lol.

Definitely two games worth your time, I think Hitman is going to be a fairly short game as I got 25% of trophies in just a couple of hours of play, but it is good enough to go through a couple of times, I’m sure the professional options will make it much more difficult.

Well, that’s all from me today, happy gaming.

Hi all,

Not too bad, took me four full play through’s to get the platinum, yes, it should have only taken me two, but I enjoyed it so much I didn’t care too much, I harvested one too many little sisters so had to go through a fourth time, had a great time with it (again) and got me another platinum trophy, that’s 5 now, almost level 9.

Got Hitman: Absolution on its way so will be playing that one soon, also started playing Resident Evil 6 and am quite surprised at how much fun it is, trophy hunting in a big way at the moment and enjoying myself at the same time, can’t be bad. Won’t be getting any more games after Hitman due to I really really really want to play The Last of Us so am hoping to finish all my games by 7th May so I can take my time on that one, maybe even make some more videos.

That’s all for now, hope you all are having fun with whatever games you are playing, happy gaming.

Hi all,

After getting platinum for Hitman I decided to load up another two games, not new ones but good ones, first one is Rage and the second one is Dead To Rights: Retribution, I’m also playing Resident Evil 6 so I’m really trophy hunting while enjoying the games I love to play.

I’m also going to send off for Skyrim again, I got the platinum for that on my other account so this gives me another excuse to play this game again, it was a great game and I’m looking forward to playing it again.

Hoping to get The Last of Us in time for my birthday next month, but if not I’ll look forward to playing it later in the year. One of my sons has taken over playing Hitman and when he’s finished with that then I think I’ll make some videos of the different challenges on that game. I would also like to make some videos of Skyrim as there are some good funny moments in that game, maybe do some voice overs to replace the actual dialogue with some fun stuff.

That’s all for now, hope everyone’s having fun with the games they are playing.

Hi all,

Sorry for not posting in a while, but I do get carried away once I get to playing a game I’m really enjoying it. The latest on my list is Far Cry 3, I really didn’t expect to get hooked so easily on this game but it’s absolutely great. I’m loving it, there is tons of stuff to do and the storyline is pretty cool too.

I’ve also got Tomb Raider which is coming tomorrow or the next day, which should also be cool, and I also took advantage of the PSN offer of spending $50 and get $10 back, so I pre-ordered Bioshock Infinite which I will now be able to download one minute after midnight on the 26th of this month, how cool is that? Which, means it only actually cost me $49.99 instead of $59.99, awesome.

There are some pretty awesome games coming out this year, also there is Sniper 2 Ghost Warrior, I enjoyed the first one so this one should be pretty cool, then you have The Last of Us later this year, which is certainly going to be another game of the year game, just hope I can get that one the day it releases, we’ll have to wait and see.

I’m still in the process of trying to get a recording system setup, but I’m short of a couple of cables, once I have those in place I should be able to start doing the video walkthrough’s again, so looking forward to that.

Well, that’s about it for now, happy gaming.

Hi all,

Yes, I loved this game, the story mode was great, the graphics pretty good and it was a fair challenge getting all the trophies, great game, really enjoyed it. I also started playing Bioshock Infinite which is going to be much harder to get the platinum, good game though, disappointed as I’ve said before about no multi-player but the story is pretty good, plenty of stuff to do that keeps it interesting, it’s definitely got the Bioshock feel about it, another great game so far.

I have completed the story once (on easy) and now I’m on my second playthrough. I did make a video of my first 10 minutes and was going to do more but by the time I uploaded my first 10-minute video there were 100 other videos online of the whole game 🙁 The good part was that the video was a test run really to see how well it comes out and I was impressed, I’m looking forward to making more videos, just need to find a different angle so I don’t duplicate the 100’s of other players out there making videos.

All in all, it’s been a good week, looking forward to playing some more soon, happy gaming.

Hi all,

Yes, I’ve been playing the new Sniper game, looks like I may just platinum this one, two very hard trophies (at least for me anyway) are one online where you have to melee kill someone, use a sidearm to kill someone and snipe someone all in the same game, got all other online trophies. The other trophy I got to get is playing the story on expert which I’m doing now and have completed the first act, there are three all together so am hopeful about getting the platinum for this one.

Only two days left until I get my Bioshock Infinite download and I’m really looking forward to that, shame there is no multiplayer as I enjoyed the multiplayer on Bioshock 2, oh well, hope the story mode makes up for the loss of online play.

I did get my recording setup working, but it’s a long process at the moment, the quality of the video isn’t great but, it’s pretty good, definitely good enough to do some walkthroughs, chapters, etc… I’m actually looking forward to making some decent videos for YouTube of my gameplay, I haven’t been put off yet, even though my first video took 3hrs to put together 3 minutes of video, lol. I guess it’s a learning process before I get it right.

All eyes ready for 7th May for The Last of Us, that’s the next major game I really want to own, would love to do the video walkthrough for that one, looks amazing. Well, that’s all from me today, happy gaming.

Hi all,

Yeah, the new Tomb Raider is a great game, a bit short as you can complete story mode in a day, but great playability, but probably won’t get everything the first time around although you can. Basically to get the platinum trophy you will need to complete everything, side missions, finding all relics, documents, tombs, etc… There is a ton of stuff to do, but it’s not hard and it’s a pleasure to play.

The Downside for me is multiplayer, trophies on this will take a while and it’s basically the same usual stuff, team Deathmatch, free for all, a version of capture the flag which seems a little out of place for a game of this sort. I would have liked to see a story type multiplayer mode so I’m not thrilled about going for these online trophies.

All in all, I would give the story a 9 out of 10 and multiplayer a 5 but that’s a personal opinion, maybe I’ll get into the online thing after trying it for a bit. Next game coming should be Sniper Ghost Warrior 2, I’ve seen about 20 minutes of playtime of this and it looks great, this is none of that quick sniping rubbish people get into, this is how real sniping should be, brilliant game if you have patience, I loved the first one so the second one should get to me by the weekend.

Only 13 more days to go until I get to download my copy of Bioshock Infinite, will do a nice review on that one, until then, happy gaming.

Hi all,

Yep,  I’ve decided to play the original Bioshock again as it came as bonus content with my pre-order of Bioshock Infinite. Played through on easy and it was too easy, but it was good to be reminded of the different areas before tackling survivor mode. Not doing too bad and I’m surprised that I’m having more problems with the splicers than big daddy’s, lol.

Should be finished sometime over the next few days and playing on survival mode should get me about half a dozen trophies pop at once, that will be fun. Once this is complete I will go back to Bioshock Infinite and try and platinum that one, all good fun, enjoying gaming at the moment.

Hi all,

I started playing thief about a week ago and i’m very impressed. It is going to be a fairly hard game to platinum and i’m looking forward to trying to get that.  My initial play time finds me at the end of chapter one and I can’t for the life of me get every piece of loot. Of course i’m pretty determined so i’ll give it another go, and another until I get it, lol.

As far as getting through the game without a knockout or kill, that is going to be interesting, and it’s going to be difficult and i’m really looking forward to it. I find this game even better than my previous favorite, Dishonored, I believe if you can get the platinum for this game then you really are a master thief.

Will post again once I start playing my other two games, Sabotuer and Red Dead Redemption, hope some of you will post and let me know what your playing, happy gaming.
