I'm still playing Cave Story. It just went from "a little too easy" to "Where the F do I go now?"

Which version of Cave Story are you playing?

Cave Story 3D

Cave Story 3D

Do you find you use the 3D effect often? I've personally only played the original freeware PC version and was wondering if the 3DS version was worth getting.

I rarely us 3D on my 3DS. I do on Mario Kart 7, but that's about it. I just got this because I like physical copies.

I think that playing the HD versions of FFX & X-2 back to back was a bad decision as it's just too damned much FF.

I'm putting it down now (~ 3/4 of the way into X-2).

Yesterday, I tried a bit of Child of Light -but- (some of the mechanics) were *still* just too FF-ish; I'm like - seriously & completely burned-out on anything like it, at the moment...

...I'm serial 

So, my decision is to go with Atelier Escha + Logy next (the 2nd game in the "Dusk" series of Atelier games on the PS3).

With its equal focus on Alchemy, story, and character building/character interactions & its LACK of focus on random encounters, fighting, and grinding...I'm thinking that it'll be just the right game at just the right time

Danganronpa would also make a really good change of pace.

Holding-out for the TV-formerly-known-as-Vita (aka; now known as the PSTV)

for DanganRonpa (and/or any & all other Vita games) in the hopes of being able to:

a).  Play them on my TV and

b).  Play them using a DS3 / DS4 controller instead of on the handheld.

Also (Bonus Points) for the fact that - if I really do enjoy DanganRonpa...I'll be able to jump right into its sequel while everything is still fresh in my mind & w/o having to wait

I'm not a fan of digital only games, but I'm playing 2 right now.

The first is Gotham City Impostors. It's a Call Of Duty clone with a silly Batman is missing twist. It's fun and it was free with Xbox Live Gold this month.

The second is Shovel Knight. I just started this one. I'm about 10 min in. So far, I'm digging it!  (Pun completely intended)

Started a new game of Super Metroid on all of the following:

Original SNES
Retron 5
Retro Duo Portable v2.0

Playing mostly on the Retron 5. Played it a bit on the go on the RDP. Popped it into the SNES to see if my inability to wall jump was because of lag or just (my) old age setting in.

Seemed it wasn't lag.

But I have a NakiTek Game Saver Plus. So I was able to turn on (true) slow motion on my Original SNES so I could practice at half speed. Once I knew what frames to look for (I realize now the trick is to press jump slightly after pressing away from the wall) I can kind of do it now without too much swearing.

I think I am halfway through. I've actually never played it before. I am stuck having beat the snake in the water area. Now I have no clue where to go next and I'm avoiding cheats and walkthroughs.

Started playing a little game called Guided Fate Paradox.  Dunno if anyone here has heard, but it's actually pretty decent!   

[foxhack]

Tried out Dark Souls 1 again... and after some mucking about with DSFix I finally got the hang of it and killed the stupid Kraid thing in the first stage. I'm now in some sort of castle place. If only the controls weren't so damn fidgety.

Been playing Super Mario 3D World the past few days.  I am really enjoying it so far and have made it to World 8 with all of the Stamps, Stars, and Gold Flags with Luigi.  The gameplay reminds me more of a 2D Mario game rather than a 3D Mario game.  It does not have set missions like Mario 64 or Sunshine and the focus is more on the platforming aspect of the game.  One of my favorite features is the Ghost Mii data which allows me to destroy Turf when I replay a level that he has played to get the items I missed.

Warhammer 40K: Space Marine on XBox 360

This game isn't gonna win any awards for innovations, but damn is it fun! It's bloody, it's violent, it's manly; there's guns, bombs, chainsaws, and rocket-packs. And it has a great sound-effects! If you want to blow off some steam, this is the one you want to pop into your 360.

And the environments and storyline are a little reminiscent of Halo, albeit on ultra-violent steroids; I thought at least.

I cannot decide what to play next...I may go ahead and try to get Watch Dogs on PC going

[90snostalga]

Watch dogs won. I'm installing it now on my lap top which is hooked up to my 55" via HDMI cable. We will see how well it works.

Was gonna try to make some progress in Fallout 3 last night, but ended up talking to a good friend for a while instead.  Will try again tonight.   

Wish I could play Guided Fate Paradox on my Vita - seems custom made for it.  I would start Sorcery Saga instead since it's a Rogue-like as well, but I don't want to burn myself out on them.
