>>383193737
Good shit anon
>Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris
was this actually good or did you get it for free?
>>383193908
I got it on sale for $8 or so. Only played the first couple of tombs, but it's fun so far.
I'm thinking of selling my backlog, I'm looking at all these games and I don't have a single interest in playing them. Plus I miss having just one game to play.
>>383194197
What did you think of Jericho? I thought it was ok when I played it before.
>>383194579
believe me when I say, you will miss it when it's gone.
>>383194643
I'm up to the part when the team separates and you're forced to play as the priest, geeky chick, and Church. Having fun so far. Didn't expect it to be challenging at all, but the enemies are very strong. The environments are all nice to look at, and the story is pretty good.
>>383195124
If I had to give one negative point, it'd be how fast the QTEs disappear. Thankfully, they're still a little lenient on the actual button press.
>>383195360
oh god that shit was the worst
>PRESS X
>millisecond later
>dead
Forgot this board is neet county, of course you would have completed a pile of them
>>383195720
The first time it happened, I thought I was supposed to fail it.
>>383195810
Nigger it's summer and I don't have a job yet, the fuck else am I supposed to do?
>>383193172
>How's the backlog coming along /v/?

>>383196959
>Paper Mario (annual playthrough
my nigga
>>383195931
I know, it's fucking ridiculous, I honestly despise QTEs, especially in shit like cut-scenes
>>383197389
This time I'm restricting myself a bit to mix things up
>no female partners in combat (I jokingly call it my We Dem Boyz run)
>20 HP, 20 FP limit until I max BP
>use unconventional badges like Double Dip and the D. Down attacks
I'm also trying to do stuff like beat Kent C without Sleep or actually defeating Anti Guy
>tfw finished over half my games
only 300 more to go
>>383198104
>>no female partners in combat (I jokingly call it my We Dem Boyz run)
>>20 HP, 20 FP limit until I max BP
>>use unconventional badges like Double Dip and the D. Down attacks
I'm gonna have to try these, seem like fun
>Kent, Anti guy
fuckin hate fighting those cunts, harder than Bowser (who's not even that hard)
i just use my backlog as a back up of games that i can play when i have nothing else to play and theres no new good games out.
>>383193172
I have a pretty large backlog, but I simply can't even start it because my current pc is actually a scavenged laptop with some i3 cpu and no gpu.
So even if I turn all the settings down, tiny-ass resolution, running nothing but the game, I'll be lucky if I can get 20+fps.
In some games that's fine. In a heavily modded Morrowind, running it at 1920x1080 but turning off all the fancy effects, with all the npc ai and meshes and shit taking up resources, running 10-30 fps is fine. Not great, but it doesn't really detract from the game.
But say Metro 2033? The 20 fps with all the lowest settings and still dropping when many things are happening on screen? Playing the game like that suffers, and so I just don't play it at all.
I hopefully have a job next semester, but it's reliant on passing the class I just took this summer, so I'm praying to God I got that C.
>>383198830
Can you not play old potato games like Doom?
>>383199121
at 60fps*
>>383193172
Saint's Row 2
Thief 2
Aragami
Assassin's Creed Syndicate
Assassin's Creed Chronicles: China
Batman: Arkham City
Shadow Warrior Classic Redux (the expansions)
Shinobi 3
Thief: Deadly Shadows
Ultimate Doom
Dark Souls
That should be all of them.
Here's my list for the Summer, X means I beat it:
Bravely Default (X)
Bravely Second (X)
Shin Megami Tensei IV (X)
Shin Megami Tensei IV Final
Xenoblade Chronicles
Shinobi 3
MH4U
Earthworm Jim
Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon
Streets of Rage 2
Rhythm Heaven Megamix
Playing SMT IV Final right now of course. I doubt I'll finish these all by august but I'm enjoying myself right now
>>383199121
Oh yeah sure I can, but obviously that's not my backlog anymore.
Same with older Tomb Raider, Quake, most indie sidescrollers, some less intensive horror games like Penumbra, etc
I can play games with others like league of legends, risk of rain, e.y.e., basically anything that I can turn the settings down and have it actually do fucking anything.
More recent games, if they even have settings options, the settings really don't do shit for performance but make the game look worse. Actually Metro has that problem where you can't actually turn off aaa completely because it uses their own special aa or something, which really sucks for me.
>>383199907
so basically you can't play anything post 2003? That sucks man, maybe Shovel Knight or other pixel games might work if you're interested in them.
>>383198553
Agreed, Fucking 10 AP and solid defense is nothing to laugh at in PM.
I'll probably just resort to spamming cooked healing items and going full attrition
>>383200562
I still remember the nightmare that was fighting the shadow queen for the first time in TTYD
>300hp across 2 fights
>went in with fuck all items
>barely any of my crew fully upgraded
>if you die at any point you have to sit through a 5 minute cutscene every single time
Paper Mario and TTYD have fantastic bossfights, both mandatory and optional
>>383200804
>fighting the Master for your Diploma
>>383201118
>fighting Doo-liss for the first and second time
I need to read
Idol Magical Girl Chiru Chiru Michiru
KARAKARA
Sound of Drop -fall into poison-
Sunrider Liberation Day
and World End Economica
All of this before the new Higurashi chapter gets releasedI'm obliged ot read those VNs because they were all gifts
>>383200804
That actually stopped my first run cold, had to restart over a year later with a lot more badges/items, and a lot more experience using partners like Bobbery and Ms Mowz
>>383201579
Vivian was my savior in that fight
sheYES SHE, THIS IS AMERICAis a fantastic partner
It's why the game is a constant replay for me, even though I have such a huge backlog.
>>383199539
>Assassin's Creed Syndicate
Prepare yourself for disappointment.
>>383202527
Agreed, she's the Watt of TTYD to me, midgame girl partner that breaks the game with her ridiculous elemental attacks and status effects (burn and stun respectively)
-Dead Space
-DOOM 2016
-Dragon's Dogma
-Far Cry 3
-Mass Effect
-Metro 2033
-Shadow of Mordor
-KOTOR
-Wolfenstein TNO
Not to mention my colossal film backlog
>>383203846
>Dragon's Dogma
I hope you got the Dark Arisen DLC.
>>383203904
pretty sure the PC and soon PS4+Xbox port come with it
unless he's crazy and playing the PS360 versions
>>383204489
How is that crazy? Neck yourself, graphics kiddo.
>>383205742
because it runs at sub 25fps 90% of the time you fucking idiot
>>383206024
>muh fps
Again, kill yourself. The game runs fine when spells aren't filling the screen.
Is this the strawpoll backlog thread?
http://www.strawpoll.me/13381871
>>383206295
What terrible options.
>>383193172
I'm still adding new games faster than I'm beating ones already on it (especially with the summer sales), but lately I've been playing through the Crash N.Sane Trilogy and Mario & Luigi Paper Jam
I also still need to finish BotW, Persona 3 and KH1
>>383206241
>the game runs fine
dude just fucking stop, I love the game but don't act like the PS360 versions ran fine
>>383206773
Thanks for reminding me that I have to play Paper Jam
>>383207069
The PS3 version does, aside from what I've already mentioned. Not sure about the 360 version.
>>383207494
multiplats on the 360 ran better than PS3
do we have like a DF recording of this? Because I remember footage (and gameplay) dropping way below the 30 mark. Maybe I just think it's worse than it actually is because I was spoiled by the PC version.
>>383207712
Whatever you gotta tell yourself.
>>383207168
No worries, it's pretty good
The story and locations are super uninspired, but the gameplay is as fun as ever
>>383208173
As long as the gameplay is fun that's all that matters
