The Guildmasters

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,

Haven’t posted in a while due to i’ve been busy when not playing games, most recent game which i’m still playing is Assassins Creed II, I have platinumed this one under my old account so I decided to add it to my new account, and I love this game anyway. I’m at 70% trophies after just three days but i’ll probably end up spending a few days just trying to find all the feathers again, lol.  Played a lot of Metal Gear Solid 4 before that, haven’t got the platinum for that yet, not sure I will either as there is one really hard trophy on there. You have to complete the game on the hardest mode in under 5hrs without using any health or special items, and you cannot be detected, virtually impossible for me.

Anyway I just purchased PS+ membership again for the next three months so i’ll probably end up playing Saints Row 3rd which also looks like another good game and i’ll be checking out some of the other freebies for playstation plus members tomorrow. If anyone wants to keep track of my trophies I do get them published in real time to my facebook account. Feel free to send me a friend request or ask any questions. Also let me know what your playing at the moment and what you would like to play in the future.

Hi all,

To be honest there is only one decent game for release in June, and that is The Last of Us. It’s an Action/Adventure/RPG type game and from what i’ve seen of screenshots and trailers and even some gameplay it looks really good. If there are no more delays we should be able to get our hands on it on June 14th.

The Last of Us Game Descripion:

Twenty years after a horrifying plague, humans struggle to survive. The line between good and evil has been wiped away. What’s left of humanity makes whatever desperate choices they need to in a world where resources are scarce and danger is everywhere. Play as Joel, a grizzled scavenger hired to smuggle a 14-year-old girl out of a quarantined zone in this third-person action-survival saga from the makers of Uncharted. Ammo is scarce, so use your firepower wisely in play built on Dynamic Stealth – a strategic system that responds to and adapts outcomes based on your choices. Encounter infected humans, military patrols, and fellow survivors on a mission that will take you across the ravaged landscape of the United States.

You can tell it’s a naughty dog game, it has that play and feel about it, it reminds me a bit of the Uncharted games.  I’ve also read that there will be online play but I don’t know what that entails as yet, could be similar to the Uncharted games but i’ll update when I know more.  As of yet I don’t know if I will be able to get this one the day of its release but i’m hoping. Have to wait and see.

Another game that comes out June 4th is Remember Me which is another Action/Adventure game, I don’t know much about this one but here is the game overview:

Remember Me Game Description:

In the not-too-distant future, society has removed all notions of privacy. Memories are digitized, enhanced, and bought and sold on the open market. You happen to be a thief with a very valuable skill: breaking into people’s minds and stealing those memories. Imprisoned by those who fear your power and your own memory wiped clean, you’ll escape from prison and fight to recover your own past. Play as Nilin, the most wanted memory hunter in Neo-Paris. Infiltrate people’s minds, stealing and even altering their memories as you outrun and outsmart the authorities that are trying to hunt you down. Remix people’s memories in real-time in a mind-warping combo of explosive martial-arts combat and uncertain reality.

This definitely sounds like something new, i’ve not heard of a story quite like this and it does interest me somewhat, I want to see some trailers and gameplay before I decide but I would probably rent this one to see how it plays, could be interesting.

That’s all for now, will post more as I get more info, happy gaming.

This game is really going to blow your mind, just like Skyrim did with never before seen graphics and animation, this one has gone even further.

The Ubisoft Anvil Next engine has taken the game to the next level. Everything in this latest installment is bigger and better than ever. More realistic than you could ever imagine a game to be.

The story is set around the 1770’s and the american revolution, you play as Connor, whose mother is American and English father and you are fighting to save your homeland.

This world is massive, going from cities, to woodland and battlefields to oceans. A huge game with an awesome storyline, many new weapons, including more guns. There are also tomahawks, rope darts, knives and more.

Even the weather system is magic and extremely realistic compared to many previous games. The battles are much more detailed and realistic and you can either fight face to face or use your stealth to take enemies out either by surprise or from a distance.

It’s actually quite impossible to describe a game like this to someone who hasn’t seen it, you just have to, at the very least, watch some gameplay or trailer to get where this is coming from. The minute you see the detail, combat, graphics, weather and massive environments your going to just want this game so bad.

On top of all this the new multi-player promises to be the best yet, with new characters, maps and modes to give us even more time enjoying what is an epic game.

To put it simple, every so often a ridiculously realistic game comes out that you want the minute you see it, it just draws you in like a really good movie. Well, this one is one of those, you would have to be deaf, dumb and blind not to want this game.

Assassins Creed 3 releases October 30th but you can pre-order now from Amazon:

Trying to get you some ideas for players across the spectrum, teenagers and adults alike that are fans of the Harry Potter movies and games will probably be pretty happy getting this one for christmas. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1.

If the game is as big a hit as the movie it will sell well and there has already been a decent reduction in price if you shop around.

Game Description:

The time for learning is over. The time to meet your destiny has arrived. The Harry Potter saga builds to its thrilling conclusion in this game based on Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part I. The stakes have never been higher for Harry, and Deathly Hallows takes the franchise in a new direction centered on furious wand-based combat. You’re on the run right from the start in a desperate quest to destroy Voldemort’s Horcruxes. Battle Dementors, Death Eaters, and other powerful enemies with only your wand to help you. Use potions, your Invisibility Cloak, and more while you stare down your destiny as the only one who can defeat Voldemort.

One of the biggest games out this year, won awards, got some awesme ratings just about everywhere is Red Dead Redemption. This game will be a great gift for any action/adventure gamer if they don’t already have it.

Game Description:

Red Dead goes Undead in this new adventure that unleashes zombies on the Wild West. Red Dead Redemption followed former outlaw John Marston across the frontier, where he chose to travel an honorable – or reckless – path. This time, there’s no morality to worry about, and no weighty choices to be made – it’s all about survival. When an undead plague ravages the West, it’s up to Marston to find a cure for the disease and deal with the pesky zombie problem it creates. Battle zombies Wild West style, using frontier weapons and tactics in a genre mash-up that will have you wondering why someone didn’t think of this sooner.

Another game that should be on movie fans lists is Tron:Evolution. The original movie for those that haven’t yet seen it (why the heck not) was a massive hit, I personally have seen that movie about a dozen times and I will be getting this game just so I can fulfill a dream.

I remember at the time saying this would be such a cool game to play, that was so long ago that we didn’t think we would ever get to play games like this on consols but look at where we are now, I have to try this one out.

Game Description:

When a movie is set inside a video game, you know it’s only a matter of time before you can play it for yourself! Disappear into the digital void in this game that fills the gap between the original Tron and its sequel, Tron: Legacy. Set between the two films, Tron: Evolution lets you experience the action-packed, high-tech world of Tron as you battle to stop a ruthless dictator and his relentless army. Ride a light cycle in thrilling high-speed battles. Defeat enemies using your light disc in combat that blends martial arts moves and incredible free-running stunts that send you scampering up walls, leaping across unreal distances, and more.

Well here we are two days later and i’m back at level 50, the problem now is do I continue trying to grind for Guild Rank 10 or re-incarnate again?

Both have their advantages and I think i’m going to grind to get my guild rank up to 10 before re-incarnating again. I’ve worked it out it will take around 20hrs if I stick to big red 2 maybe a little less.

According to my save file i’ve played for 275hrs and yes I do have a life besides gaming, that’s been spread over a couple of months so there is tons of playability in this game.

I’ve only achieved 23% of trophies, i’m only at 300k in guilder, my georama is only level 7 so there is tons more to do, oh yeah and I only have about 11 S ranks in my quests so if there is anyone wants to help me clear up all the level 1 quests i’m available most evenings.

My hometown is open to all and I would prefer a change from grinding on just big red alone, it would be nice to try some of the other quests. Station attendant 1 isn’t too bad with 4 players and you get around 30+ thousand in guild rank points, I did it once with 3 others last night for the first time and the score was 32000 for the S rank so quite a bit more than red but it does take a little longer, but you do get some different gear dropped to so it makes up for it and it did only take us 13 minutes.

I’m still trying to enhance my weapons which is difficult enough finding the right items and I haven’t even started to try and understand fully the binding part, I have binded some early items but I think my guild rank has to be at least 10 in order to bind those decent pieces of armor and weapons.

Here is a link to some wiki pages which are going to be really helpful to me, newbies and mid level players, check it out if you want to know about quests, binding, enhancing and so forth, tons of info there:

Wiki info on WKC

Well hope to see more of you in my hometown, and if not will see you on the quests, may the grind be bountiful.

This game is one i’ve been waiting for a long time now, i’m a final fantasy fanatic ever since I played my first final fantasy on ps1, I think at that time it was about final fantasy 6 or 7 and it was awesome.

I’ve just watched the trailer for this latest final fantasy and it looks like it’s been worth the wait, the graphics are stunning, no other word for it, the gameplay looks like it’s as good as it’s ever going to get, in fact i’ve just pre-ordered mine without even thinking too much about it which is rare for me, it looks that good.

Available on both the PS3 and XBox360 and around $60 I believe it’s going to be one of the few games worth the money you spend on it.

You can pre-order from amazon with the pre-order price guarantee and this is one game you won’t be disappointed with.

If you have on demand on your tv the final fantasy official trailer is under cutting edge, check it out man.

Silent Hill: Shattered Memories I think has got to be top of the list for most anticipated game on PS2, it’s had many problems while in development and untold delays but it’s here at last, actually it’s been out around a week and I only realised this myself this morning so thought I would mention it, personally there was a time when I thought i’d never see this one, i’m pleased they got it in the end and now it’s out at a fairly reasonable price.

So what is so different about this one? Here are some of the features you can expect:

* A re-imagining of the original Silent Hill that turns everything you thought you knew on its head
* The game watches you and adapts to your actions to create a unique experience to each player and intensify their fears
* Implementation of a cell phone as the user interface, which acts as a story telling device, map, puzzle helper, and camera that provides seamless flow with no interruption in gameplay
* New nightmare sequence focus on escape and evasion rather than direct confrontation
* Silent Hill: Shattered Memories will feature an all-new soundtrack by acclaimed series composer Akira Yamaoka
