This is more or less just an excel version of my old list : http://shadowgaming.wordpress.com/upgraded-mk3-move-list

And that was an upgraded version of aPerfektFIaw’s List (On x360a) : http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/showthread.php?t=11073

I’ve basically created:

A sheet for each character, this makes it rather easy for trying to find people.
Added a few more kombos that isn’t in the upgraded list.
Added a ton more info about kodes, also how to easily put them in.
Added a ton of links for Shang Tsung players, where now all you have to do is click on the morph name to take you to that characters page.
There is also an option to take you back.

For people who haven’t looked at my upgraded list, i added a coloring system to check if the codes were working or not, as from what i can tell, the original list came from the arcade version…and that seems to have a few different kombos than this version.

You may notice the ONLYCombo/ FinishingMoves/ SpecialMoves sheets, these are not in use for now, i will add to them later on though =P.

Looks awesome doesn’t it?….well..it would look so much more awesome if failmail from Asia wouldn’t take so long *RAGE*.

Well i ordered:

Spice & Wolf 2 Calender (<3 Horo)

Been wanting this for ages, since someone posted a pic of the previous calender on twitter. Also a huge huge fan of Horo Spice & Wolf =D.

Toaru Majutsu no Index Volume 1 (Manga)

Recently watched this..was a really really good series..also seemed like something that would be good to learn off of (as this is in jap).

Death Note Volume 1 (Manga)

To be honest..i have no idea why i ordered this..there was tons more awesome stuff i could of got..but bleh…though it’s still a good manga..and as i’ve read it a few times so it should be easier to figure out.

http://www.yesasia.com/global/1004034364-0-0-0-en/info.html

Ordered all of this on the 10th..it’s 6-12 days delivery..the calender was sent off on the 10th…the manga on the 18th… Does shipping always take this long?

Ordered via yesasia…average site..it has a ton of stuff fairly cheap..and free P&P if you spend over $40..which is like godly for ordering stuff like this.

The only problem is the site has a REALLY shitty layout..like horrible…so hard to find things.

——————————————————————————————————————————————————–

Gears of War 2 arrived on saturday…been having alot of fun playing that..

I’ve been wanting this for ages, well i’ve been wanting any of the Gears games for ages..only ordered this due to it being the Game of the Year Edition and only being £16 (new) – Link

I had the previous game on the PC..but it sucked mostly due to lagg, bugs & a fail & empty multiplayer.

This one is actually quite awesome..horde mode is great fun, even alone. As for the multiplayer..not bad..but it’s fairly difficult…i really need to practice.

—

Also ordered Street Fighter IV..which arrived as i was typing this post…hurray =D.

Yet again, i mostly ordered this due to only being £17..and considering it was the collector’s edition..this seemed really cheap, also has two figures (Show below).

The game itself..is hard..VERY hard…i would personally say i’m fairly good is fighters…but this…THIS..uggh…i need practice.

-

I’ve not been doing any of meh anime review things lately…mostly due to me being an idiot and forgetting…bleh…

Anyways, that is all. Oh, and i’ll do an actual review when the stuff actually arrives….whenever that happens >=(

I’ve been having mixed feelings about college…i want to do it…but at the same time i don’t…

The reason why i don’t want to do it is mainly due to me not being sure what i want to do in life..computing is the obvious answer…but mainly because thats what i’m good at.

Personally..i would rather do music…I love music..but to be honest i’m not sure what i would do in it..i guess i could learn as a hobby…but blah.

What else….oh yes…the xbox…A while back, if you had been following my blog…i mentioned that my goal on the xbox was 50K GS….i got that a few months ago..since then..i’ve hardly touched my 360..i do play often….but not to achievement hunt…to play COD….yes…COD.

Call of Duty is a great game…great fun..but i’d rather not waste my time playing it…it just gets…uggh.

What other news is there….HRRRM…

Oh yes, bought myself another monitor…21.5″ something something for £120…though the guy i bought enough was nice enough to give me his computer + tons of other computing stuff free with it, since he was moving abroad.

Got loads of awesome stuff…more RAM…tons of cards…and best of all…a 750GB…you won’t believe how much i needed this..like..omg..though i’ve had it..two weeks?…and nearly used all of it already =P.

Last of all…ugggh…RUNESCAPE.

Yes..runescape…the cause of my insanity…the cause of my boredom….the cause of well..everything.

About uhm..5-6 years ago..i started playing runescape…i played it loads…and i mean LOADS…at the time..i didn’t have an xbox…i didn’t have my awesome computer…i had nothing…i had an old 98 computer…that hardly ran anything..

The only game that was fairly decent..was Runescape…which i played for AGES and AGES..like jesus…i played this loads…so much…that it broke me…mentally…

After playing too much…i found out that i could not play any game, other than rs, for extended periods of time……It made them…boring..

It made alot of things boring..it also made me crazy…

Though recently..i’ve went back to it..mainly due to being so bored..

It’s still bleeh…but it cures my boredom…it’s not “fun”…but it’s not boring either..

-Why i haven’t posted..-

Not done a blog post in AGES…will explain why….well…i’ll try.

First off…I’ve not done a blog post in ages mostly due to me writing uber long posts..and nobody reading them…and all i get is spam comments…

Well..to be honest i don’t mind if loads if people read them…though even one person would do…just a comment…thats all i ask.

Another reason is wordpress….i love it…but..wordpress.com can only do so many things.

I would love to host my own blog..on my own site…with the ability to use loads of themes and plugins…but i can’t..

Last reason…Twitter…as stated in millions of my other posts…Twitter is awesome…though with only 140 characters.

This is where blogs come in…i can write long posts…logs…etc etc.

That is all.

Just a note: I don’t think i mentioned before…but all my anime related posts will be posted @ https://failcaek.wordpress.com/

I’ll just write mini-reviews for all my games..and see how that goes.

Most of these..will most likely be mindless gibberish.

Game: Mini Reviews (Retail)

Mercenaries 2: World in Flames (Rented)

Rented this game AGES ago, really fun game…achievements aren’t too hard…though there is a few annoying glitchy ones. The power to level cities with nukes and such makes it a great game.

Soulcalibur IV (Bought)

Bought this when it first came out (As i was a huge fan of SC3).

Amazing game, great graphics…the character customization is great too.

Online is fairly good….though it does get very repetitive, as with every fighting game.

As for the achievements…all rather easy…just take time.

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed (Rented)

Another one i rented ages & ages ago.

Can’t remember much about this..

Achievements are fairly easy, though sith master is a pain to complete.

Fable II (Rented)

This was the first game i rented, and i have to say, absolutely AMAZING game..defently one of the best on the 360…

Achievements…not so hard..only a few that are a pain, though can be got through the help of a friend =D

Assassin’s Creed (Bought? then sold)

Not played this in ages either, really good game though..

Amazing graphics…though the game is VERY repetitive, and i’m not even joking…this is VERY VERY repetitve.

Achievements, yet again not so hard…only the collectible ones are a pain.

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (Bought)

If you haven’t played this, you fail. AMAZING FPS.

Story is really good…multiplayer is awesome…

Achievements…really easy, only mile high club is hard…

Crackdown (Bought)

This was an attempt @ a GTA-like game for the xbox…and it done rather well..

The “Super-Man” like abilities make the game really fun, the story fails though.

The co-op mode sorta makes up for the failures, though with a limit of 2 ppl…it could of been much better.

Achievements….average…a few really REALLY annoying collectable ones…rest are more or less easy.

Saints Row (Bought)

Failed attempt @ GTA on xbox.

This game sucks so bad, i’m not even gonna write a review on it.

Splinter Cell: Double Agent (Bought then Sold)

As a huge fan of SC, i had to try this….though compared to chaos theory…this sucked.

It is still good….but in my opinion it wasn’t as good as CT..

Multiplayer is average…can be good and bad.

Achievements….story ones are rather easy..multiplayer ones on the other hand…are a huge pain.

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (Bought? then sold)

This one was of the first games i got on my 360, also the second 1000 i got (i think?)…

Great game, huge world..the combat system seems a bit unbalenced though..i found myself killing high-level monsters at the start of the game.

Achievements…rather easy…fun game to you won’t get bored getting them.

Unfortunatly, no multiplayer =(

Overlord (Bought then sold)

Got this the same time as oblivion…

I’m not sure how i would describe this game…it was…average…that is all.

Enchanted Arms (Bought then sold)

This was my first 1000, and my first RPG on the 360.

This game was…alright..not amazing…but i found it to be rather basic..also the gameplay was sorta..”meh”..i found myself using a money glitch cause it was such a pain to level up..and you get stats with money. (I think so anyway…i forgot).

Achievements…simply playthrough the game..only achievement you can miss is a secret one at the end of the game i think.

BioShock (Bought then sold)

Great FPS, average story..

Achievements..fairly easy…all but completing the game on hard.

Can’t remember much else about this…played it AGES ago.

Spider-Man: Web of Shadows (Rented)

This was the first game i rented…and i can’t remember much about it.

Though the gameplay was rather fun.

Condemned: Criminal Origins (Rented)

Another of the first games i rented…average horror/fps..

Achievements..easy easy…though max GS is 970/970 >_>

Call of Duty: World at War (Rented)

Rented this a while ago…good game…but nothing compared to COD4…the infinite respawning enemies becomes REALLY annoying on veteran, so much that i didn’t even get 1000 on this…though i will be renting again.

Other than that, achievements are fairly straight forward.

Not played much of the multiplayer…but it is..average compared to COD4, though i do prefer the unlocks.

Left 4 Dead (Rented)

This is an amazing co-op..very fun game, though it does get VERY repetitive VERY quick.

With only 4 campaigns (5 now with crash course i think?) it’s basically the same thing over and over.

Achievements….average…a few easy..and a few really annoying ones.

Naruto: Rise of a Ninja (Rented)

As most my rentals, i can’t remember much about this..

Though from what i “can” remember, it wasn’t too bad…but don’t expect much GS from it unless you put alot of time into it.

LEGO Indiana Jones: Original Adventures (Rented)

This game is great fun, also an easy 1000GS.

If you’ve played Lego Star Wars, you’ll notice this is MUCH smaller, though personally..i think it is MUCH more fun.

Two Worlds (Rented)

Very easy to explain this game, failed oblivion clone.

The game itself isn’t too bad, but it is laggy as hell!

There is also a few glitchy achievements, other than that.

If you like RPG’s i would reccomend it….but prepare to be annoyed @ times.

Alone In The Dark (Rented)

Great horror game.

The ability to combine items makes things much more interesting..

I would personally say this game is very basic, other than the combine item thing, even so…it’s a very fun game!

Fairly easy 1000GS…you will have to get a few collectables…but it isn’t too hard.

Bully: Scholarship Edition (Rented)

Yet again, another…basic game..though it has few things that make is great.

Forgot what though, though i do remember i had great fun with this.

Achievements..not so hard..a bit of effort is needed for that 1K though.

Fuzion Frenzy 2 (Rented)

To be honest, i NEVER wanted to rent this, i wanted to keep my profile clear of all “easy” 1000GS…but Lovefilm failed, and decided to sent me it.

The game itself fails, it’s a poor mario party clone.

Achievements, could be done in a few hours…i’m sure theres a multiplayer chiev which may be annoying…other than that…V’easy.

Viva Pinata (Rented)

I’m actually playing it’s successor, Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise atm, so see the review there =P.

Achievements for this…much easier than VP:TiP…also much more annoying since you can’t use pinata vision.

Dragon Ball Z: Burst Limit (Rented)

I will be renting this game, i sent back the last time due to accidentally writing over my previous save.

The game itself, is rather fun..great game for DBZ/fighting game lovers.

Achievements….well…the #2 hardest in the world according to TrueAchievements.

Need for Speed: Most Wanted (Rented)

I loved this game on the PS2, so i decided to rent for a fairly easy 1000GS.

Too bad i was wrong, the game itself is good…but really outdated…achievements are simple…but are annoying.

Fallout 3 (Rented)

Must get for RPG lovers.

I would say this was an oblivion clone, but it was made by the same people =P.

The game is huge….storyline is good….a few things missing though.

The map is huge, and when more than 50% of the map is wasteland, it gets quite dull. Unlike Oblivion, where the map was about half the size..and looked nice…

Another thing missing…magic…this was one of the things that i would say made oblivion great…though seeing it’s a post-war thing…very un-likely.

Achievements….fairly easy..one or two you can miss if you ain’t following a guide, other than that…easy 1000GS.

LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga (Rented)

I rented this thinking it would be good as Lego Indiana Jones, and i was by far wrong.

This felt like a huge game compared to LIJ, but it felt repetitive as hell..

Achievements…much more annoying than LIJ…can’t remember much else.

Prey (Rented)

I have to say, i liked the story in this.

Guy + Loads of other people get abducted by aliens, guy fights back, guy beats aliens.

Game wasn’t too bad…simple FPS…felt a bit like doom…but doom is much better.

Achievements, rather easy..simply play the game…also a few multiplayer chievs.

Dead Rising (Rented)

This is one of the best and most fun games on the 360…for several reasons.

I also hate it for another reason.

The game itself is on a timelimit…after that you have to start from the beginning.

I had loads of fun with this, the option to use nearly ANYTHING as a weapon was a great idea…the story was great too.

The option to take pics of zombies for xp was another brilliant idea.

I do hate this game for one reason, the 53K zombies killed achievement…you need like 53154 zombie kills for the chiev…i got like..53145 and the time ran out >_> Annoying as hell.

Other than that…amazing game, it’s one of the few games i want to buy.

Achievements…not too hard…just take a bit of effort…

The Darkness (Rented)

Can’t say too much about this, as i didn’t have long before i sent back.

The game seems good, so i’ll be renting again.

The Lord of the Rings: Conquest (Rented)

As a fan of the LotR series, i thought this was going to be good….but it turned out to be “meh”…it’s basically the same thing over and over.

Achievments…easy..can be done in a day or two, as for the multiplayer ones, most can be done legit..only one or two that needs boosted.

The Orange Box (Bought -> Sold -> Rented)

As a fan of Half Life, i had to rent this.

Great games, as you get 6 games? in one pack.

Half Life is a great series, amazing story…the gravity gun makes things more fun too.

Portal, very fun puzzle game..great idea…and the creator of “The Cake is a Lie”

Team Fortress 2..Very very fun multiplayer game…endless enjoyment with this, hopefully valve will update this soon though =P.

Achievements..all fairly easy, HL has some fairly annoying collectable ones, Portal has some annoying challenge ones, TF2 is all easy.

Eternal Sonata (Rented)

I have to say, I LOVED this game.

AMAZING story, gameplay is great too.

This is defently one of the best RPG’s i have ever played…well #2 (Behind FFX)

Achievements…all rather easy, it requires 2 playthroughs to get them all.

Battlefield: Bad Company (Rented -> Bought)

Great game & Multiplayer.

Not sure how i would describe this..all i can say as it’s a great game =D.

Achievements, most of them are easy, but the last 2 will require you go to hell and back.

Lost Odyssey (Bought)

Another great RPG, not as good as Eternal Sonata, but still awesome.

I personally didn’t like the story too much..it felt….meh.

Gameplay seemed average…also confusing as hell at the same time.

Achievements…..rather hellish, they require you to do more or less everything, including collecting EVERY treasure chest in the game >_>.

DLC: This is one of the few, non-FPS games i bought DLC for…

The DLC isn’t too bad, but it doesn’t ass anymore story…just adds a fairly hellish boss, and 25floors of monsters w/o a save point.

A bit like the thing in FFX-2 but easier and smaller.

Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts (Rented then Bought)

Another one of the great games on the 360.

This game actually allows you to customize your vehicles like Lego.

Amazing graphics too.

As for the achievements….rather easy if you actually put some time into it.

DLC: Another game i bought DLC for.

I personally liked the DLC for this, it adds a few more challenges, and gives you a few more blueprints if you had unlocked the eggs in Banjo-Kazooie/Tooie.

Rainbow Six Vegas (Bought)

Defently one of my favourite multiplayer games on the 360.

Not sure how to describe this, so i’ll just say it’s awesome =D.

Achievements…fairly easy…some really annoying ones (Getting Elite/Finish story on Psychotic)

DEAD OR ALIVE 4 (Bought)

Really good fighter…though really old game.

I personally think this is an amazing fighter…but it feels too old.

The fighting system is much better than newer fighters…

Achievements….really hard..some easy…but the rest will take uber skill/loads of time.

Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock (Bought)

Decent game, but defently over-hyped.

They have really raped this franchise like mad..there is like 7 GH games now.

This is a ripoff from Stepmania/DDR…basically using the guitar for controls instead of a keyboard/dancemat.

I personally hate how you’re restricted to certain songs, and can’t create your own.

Stepmania is a MUCH better alternative in my opinion. Much more songs and you can create your own/download like nearly any song.

Achievements…REALLY hellish, unless you plan on putting hours and hours into this…i wouldn’t advise getting.

Grand Theft Auto IV (Bought)

Defently another over-hyped game.

This has a few good things about it, but GT3:SA was MUCH better.

The driving in this just fails, badly…i’m guessing they tried to make it more realistic and less fun.

You also can’t use cheats in party mode…which is just fail.

The story..rather meh..

Achievements…average…not too hard..just annoying.

Gears of War (PC Version) (Bought)

I’ve had loads of problems with this, some more annoying than others.

Sometimes the game wouldn’t start, other times it would just lagg like mad.

The game itself is rather fun..

The multiplayer on the other hand, is empty..and most of the achievements are MP.

This game has TWO 10K achievements (Unlike the 360 version which only has one).

As a last note, i would like to say that i HATE the save system on this, i completed insane..got the act 5 chiev..the game crashed…loaded it up..lost my save…didn’t get chiev for finishing all insane acts (even though i did).

Shadowrun (Bought)

This game was by far under-hyped.

It is a great multiplayer game, i combines that of an RPG and a FPS…and it turned out rather good.

Achievements…most are easy, some are near impossible w/o boosting, the rest you will get by just playing the game.

Prince of Persia

This game was alright, but nowhere near as good as the previous PoP games.

The story was rather meh…and no sands of time = fail.

Achievements..fairly easy…a few collectable chievs but are done easily enough.

Devil May Cry 4 (Bought)

Another favourite of mine.

Yet again, not as good as the previous ones (DM1/2/3)..but still great, and the addition of Nero made things different.

Achievements on this take ALOT of time, i’ve played about 70hours and not even got 500GS yet.

Mass Effect (Bought)

Fairly good RPG….but not amazing.

Story was rather..meh..

Achievements…not so bad…but going through the games 3 times, doing nearly everything everytime can be a pain.

Far Cry 2 (Rented)

I personally thought this was gonna be much better than it was, but i was wrong.

Another game i can’t describe too well…

Oblivion Clone + Fail…that will do.

Achievements, takes loads of time…really annoying…

Mirror’s Edge (Rented)

When i first saw this, i was amazed by the graphics. But that was before i had HD =P.

The game itself isn’t too bad, but the story is meh…and it get’s very repetitive after a while.

Achievements…fairly easy…simply complete the game, get a few collectables..some time trials too.

Army of Two (Rented)

This is a great co-op game, the gameplay & story ain’t too bad either.

The option to “Pimp” your guns is rather smart too..

Achievement wise…average..some easy..some annoying as hell.

Battle Fantasia (Rented)

As a fighting game fan, i had to get this.

It’s a great fighter….the story is meh..though i had alot of fun playing it.

Achievements….not sure what i would say here…about half of them are easy, the other half take skill…and the last one takes uber uber skills.

Unreal Tournament 3

I bought this thinking it would be as good as UT2004, and that they would be adding mods.

Thanks to the money-muncher known as Microsoft, we couldn’t get mods.

The game isn’t too bad…but w/o mods it’s no where as good as it could have been.

Achievements…average…well..no…easy, just take LOADS of time.

Kingdom Under Fire: Circle of Doom (Bought)

This is one of my recent purchases, i personally thought it was going to be more like balder’s gate on the PS2, but i was wrong =(.

It isn’t too bad…but…the story is annoying..well isn’t annoying it’s just that it’s hard to start.

Achievements, fairly easy if someone gives you some hax weapons/armour =D, makes getting lv80 with all chars easy as hell =D.

Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe (Rented)

Another game i have atm…fairly good too…i rented this a while ago and hardly touched…though i rented again and i’ve raped most of it =D.

I still don’t like the fighting system too much…seems…stale.

Achievements…some really easy, some impossible..like the kombo challenges…25 ranked wins in a row…ugh.

Viva Pinata: Trouble In Paradise (Rented)

The last game on my retail list =D.

This game is great, and really different.

Gardening + Pinatas = Awesome.

Achievements…fairly easy…not as easy as the first VP…but tis a fun game.

Blue Dragon/Infinite Undiscovery (Bought)

I actually have both these games, but i’m gonna leave until i’m bored to death. =D

And that concludes the retail section..

Game: Mini Reviews (Arcade) (All bought)

Triggerheart Exelica

This was one of the first arcade games i bought, ages and ages ago.

I liked the trial..and the anime-like chars & japanese voice-acting was awesome.

The game itself..is more or less another side-scrolling shooter, in other words…VERY HARD.

The achievements in this are insanely hard…as with most shoot-em-ups.

Aegis Wing

I got this after i finally discovered i could access the american marketplace.

Being free and all, i couldn’t turn this down.

Another shoot-em-up here….a fairly good one too, with online 4p co-op & the ability to upgrade weapons…makes it much more fun.

Achievements…easy easy..there is 1 that might take some time…but tis still easy.

Golden Axe

This game was one of my most favorite on the sega(?).

I personally played through the game with a friend, which made things much easier.

The game is old…the gameplay is a bit…stale..but it’s still an amazing game, it also has online co-op.

Prince of Persia Classic (Did NOT buy)

When i first got an xbox, it had PoPC already loaded on it, due to it being pre-owned..i later had to take the xbox back due to it failing.

I didn’t try the game much..so i can’t review =P.

Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved

Another one of my first buys, and one of the best.

I love this game….it’s simple…but amazing & addictive.

I’m guessing this is another shoot-em-up…but an amazing one.

Achievements….mmm….I personally wouldn’t say hard…they just need practice and luck.

Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 2

An upgrade from the first G’Wars.

The graphics are better, it has offline co-op, it has 5 more game modes.

I personally love this…amazing game…

Achievements…most of these are easy, though the sequence ones are a pain…and wax off/on.

Small Arms

I personally bought this due to it looking like Super Smash Bros & it being a measly 400MS.

The game itself is average, it can’t compare to super smash..

Achievements…really easy…can be done in a few hours.

Boom Boom Rocket

Being a fan of stepmania, i couldn’t turn this down.

I was dissapointed…this could of been much better..though the ability to create your own songs kinda makes up for that.

Achievements..hard..and annoying…

Texas Hold’em (Did NOT buy)

Got this when i rented the arcade disk..

Can’t remember much about this…so no review~

Wik: Fable of Souls (Did NOT buy)

Got this when i rented the arcade disk..

As with Texas Hold’em, i can’t remember anything about this.

Hexic HD

This game comes free with the 360~

The game isn’t bad….actually, it’s insanely addictive..

Great puzzle game…really fun.

Achievements..most of these are easy…though the last two black pearl chievs will take some skill & luck.

Galaga Legions

This is by far, one of the hardest games i have.

It’s an alright shoot-em-up….but it’s epicly hard.

Achievments….VERY HARD.

Dash of Destruction

Very poor game, though it was free.

Easy easy 200GS.

Castle Crashers

One of the few games i bought for 1200MS.

Amazing co-op & RPG.

Really fun game…good the first time through..after that..not so much.

Achievments…easy’ish..the only two that will give you trouble are the multiplayer ones.

Arkadian Warriors

This game could of been so much better…

The game feels a bit like balder’s gate…but is by far as good.

Achievements..easy easy..no trouble here.

A Kingdom for Keflings

Defently one of my most favourite arcade games.

Tis a great strategy game…not too bad for the 360 anyway.

Achievements..easy..fun too..only annoying one is collecting 10 banners.

UNO

Average game..basically just uno~

Achievements..easy…just take time.

Banjo-Kazooie

Another favourite. Had loads of fun with this.

This was one of my most favourite games on the N64..

The port was great..and they could finally add in swap & swap..or w/e.

Achievements…average..play through the game..collect everything..easy enough.

Spyglass Board Games

Fairly simple game…contains 4 board games..1 which i have no idea how to play.

Achievements…average.

Bomberman Live

Great game and good fun.

Not much else to say about this..

Achievements…average..multiplayer ones can be a pain.

DIG DUG

The only game worth 200MS..

It isn’t too bad…..well…blah..

Achievements all easy..except for “Dig”…this is just annoying.

Braid

This is, by far, one of the best puzzle games i’ve played.

With the ability to control time…it makes it much more fun.

Achievements..i would of said easy..but the time trial achievement makes this a hard 200.

SoulCalibur

As a fan of the Soul Calibur series, i couldn’t turn this down.

Unfortunatly, it is nowhere as near as good as it’s successors..

Achievements…really easy.

N+

This game is just pure genius.

Another puzzler here…an amazing one @ that..The co-op is amazing too..

Achievements on this are frustrating as hell…well..some of them..the co-op is fun…but very hard..and sometimes it doesn’t save…the single player is epicly hard too.

Worms

Achievements…average~

The full game fails…really bad game.

But compared to HD…it’s nothing as good…oh and the cpu hax.

Achievement Stuff~

These are basically achievements that i either liked, or put time into.

(MK vs DC) Super Moves Master – Perform All Super Moves and Promoves (Secret)

This won is my highest rated achievement on TrueAchievements..basically requires you to do EVERY move with EVERY character on MK vs DC..

(UT3) Like the back of my hand – Collect every power up on every map.

This achievement was annoying as hell, it requires you to collect EVERYTHING on EVERY map…power-ups…health/armour things…took me 3 days to get this >_>.

(DMC4) All Bow Before You – This is a secret achievement. You must unlock this achievement to find out more about it.

Quite proud of this achievement, as it requires you to complete Dante Must Die mode on DMC4…which is quite hellish =P.

(LO) Treasure Trove – Obtain all Treasure Box items in the field. The items you missed may be available at auction houses.

Another collectable one. This one requires you to open ALL the treasure chests in Lost Odyssey, and if anyone has played an RPG, you will know how hard this can be O_O.

This requires you to get 185K on Aegis Wing…personally i thought this was rather easy…though it seems like not many people have =P.

This would of took so much longer if a nice guy online didn’t give me a bunch of glitched weapons =D.

This one wasn’t too hard…it’s just that it takes AGES to get..game is fairly fun though..made it less painful.

Proud of this one too~ Took 3 playthroughs to get, each harder than the last =P

This would of been much harder, though doing about a million practice matches with a friend helped. =P

(ME) Extreme Power Gamer – Reach 60th level with one character

This took AGES of mindless saving & reloading…..AGES…

(PoP) Light Seeds master - Collect 1001 Light Seeds.

Another Collectable one..game was good…made this less…painful.

Anyways, next goal…WORLD DOMINATION #1 in Scotland! (About 150KGS)

Also called NHK ni Yokoso

-~#~-

Story – ( 9.5/10)

The Reviewer fails at reviews, and couldn’t think of anything to put here, instead he has treated you to pictures of lolcats.

Art – ( 9.2/10)

The artwork in this is actually rather nice. If anything, it has a different feel than other manga.

My Opinion/Enjoyment – (8.9/10)

Overall, it was a great manga.

A unusual story & art. I would of gave it a higher score, but personally, i thought the ending sucked.

-~#~-

Total Score: S + A + O / 3 = (9.2/10)

With an overall score of 9.2, this shall get filed under “Awesome”

-READ-

Before we start, i would like to say that I suck at explaining myself…..

-READ-

Now how do i introduce myself…hmmm.

Hi all….wait..no…

I’ll just write anything that comes to mind.

-Intro-

My name is Angus, I’m from the UK(Scotland =D)

Shamefully enough, i’m a NEET(Not in Employment, Education, or Training)

If I were to describe myself, the word that comes to mind would be lazy.

I’m more or less a Anime/Gaming Otaku.

—-

Let’s start on the gaming part first..(I won’t include handheld stuff in here…well sorta)

I’ve been gaming since the age of 6, with my first game & console being Super Mario World on the snes.

At the time i loved games, i later moved on to the PS1, didn’t have many games…still wasn’t much big of a gamer.

I finally got myself a PS2, loved it. The games too, TimeSplitters 2 & Final Fantasy X/X-2 were freaking godly games.

FFX was a complete favourite of mine, amazing story, great gameplay, and amazing graphics for it’s time (I think?).

Later on i got myself a gamecube, tons of great games on this, Super Smash Bros Melee, Kirby Air Ride, Mario Party etc etc.

After that, i more or less became a PC gamer, the main game being Runescape.

I can’t even explain how much time i put into that game, amazing game though…amazing for a browser game anyway.

Finally saved up and bought myself a 360. Best buy ever.

I was completely amazed with the achievement system. It gave you so much more to do in a game.

I was actually planning to get a PS3 instead of a 360….due to FFXIII being PS3 only, glad I got the 360 though, as FFXIII is coming to 360 too!

Thats more or less the gaming side of things, i could say how much time i played my GB/GBC/GBA/DS/PSP, but that would take too long.

—

Now for the anime side of things.

I discovered the amazing thing called anime a few years ago, thanks to the amazing AMV called “AMV HELL 3 : The Motion Picture”, can’t remember exactly how i came across this though.

When i watched this I was amazed, at the time i didn’t know anything about anime….so I decided to actually go through the uber long credits list, and find all the animes i liked in the AMV (This took AGES).

At the time, i thought watching stuff with subs was just stupid….”Why watch it subbed, when you can watch it dubbed”.

I finally gave up searching for dubbed versions of stuff, I then decided to watch my first anime, which was “Mahou Sensei Negima!”(Not Negima!?)

I was amazed, Japanese voice actors actually have emotion in their voices, unlike most American voice actors.

I then started watching more of Ken Akamatsu’s works, the next being Love Hina, yet again i was amazed.

A bit after that (And after watching a few more anime), I decided to read the Mahou Sensei Negima manga.

Yet again, I was astounded, freaking amazing.

I later started to watch Bleach & Naruto, amazing series’s.

About the same time i watched a bit of One Piece, though I didn’t think it was too good….so i gave up on it.

After this, i stopped watching as much, started watching Lost, Heroes etc etc.

A bit later I decided to pick up One Piece again, finally caught up to the most recent ep (At the time it was about the end of the Enies Lobby arc).

I was amazed, best(Well, #2) anime ever. Amazing storyline, amazing characters, amazing everything.

It has a poor start (well poor first 50′ish eps), but it does get MUCH MUCH better.

It was around this time i got myself a PSP, and discovered psp-anime.com.

I now had a ton of stuff to watch, so to start it off, I tried Code Geass.

Now this anime is godlike(#1), amazing plot, amazing characters. It just keeps you coming back for more. And Lelouch is just godly =D.

After this i more or less just started watching random animes & reading random mangas.

I actually started to try anime i didn’t think I’d like, or have looked at before and went “meh”.

The most notable one here would have to be Clannad, at first i thought this looked rather fail, though me being bored and all, i decided to give it a try.

As always, I was amazed. I even cried at the end =D.

Thats more or less all for my anime stuff…

—

Not much else I can think of, i’ve been browsing the interwebs for years, i’ve only really settled down to a few fourms..a pokémon fourm, mytrickster.net..thats about it.

Things became a bit more fun after i made my blog (Quite a while ago now), this made things so much easier. In a way, it’s a form of stress release.

Later on I discovered Twitter. Now this is a work of pure genius. Best thing since caek.

I’ve also lived on Youtube for a while too, i “used” to upload AMV’s then YT banned me =(.

—

As far as I can tell, thats everything I can think of (for now). If i think of anything else, i’ll edit this or make a part #2.

I’ll leave you all with a few random stuff.

— Random Anime Stuff

#1: Code Geass (Freaking Godly!)

#2: One Piece (About the same as Code Geass)

#2: One Piece (Need I say more =D)

#3: Love Hina(First Romance manga i read, still amazing after 7 re-reads)

First Anime/Manga i watched/read: Mahou Sensei Negima

—- Random Gaming Stuff

Consoles I own: Just a 360 =P

Handhelds I own: DS (A bit broken, but it works), PSP (Another godly item)

First game i completed: Super Mario World =P

First game i played: Super Mario World

First Console: Snes

That’s all, hopefully i can write up a “Welcome to the NHK!” review tomorrow =D.

Twitter is more or less a micro-blog. It allows you to post a “Tweet” consisting of 140 characters.
This can be extremely useful compared to blogging.

With blogging it would seem pointless to post anything with less than that, though blogging allows you to post long, detailed posts, unlike Twitter where you have a limit of 140 characters.

Myself personally, likes to post about anything funny/interesting i find…

Another Pro of Twitter is it allows you to keep track of tons of companies, people, news all in one place.

……and why am i writing this…/postend

Yes, i do the occasionaly lengthy anime/manga post, this is mostly due to me using Twitter and Facebook ALOT more….

Both are very VERY useful.

-

Twitter is more or less a mini blog in my opinion, something i can more or less spam with anything funny i find, anything i make, and so on.

This is much easier than spamming blog posts for every mindless thing.

-

Facebook on the other hand is just…useful.

I mostly use to play the game “Mafia Wars” which is extremely addictive.

-

For those who don’t know, (and for people who were linked here from msnplus), i also make msn plus scripts.

Such as Xbox360Stuff (Which posts gamerscore to MSN)

Also planning to release a last.fm one which will post your total plays. And a Whatpulse when i can be assed making.

-

As for the GeassMania packs, i am currently slowing working through all my wallpapers cropping parts to use as avatars.

Once thats done i’ll start renaming -> packaging.

I will also need a logo..but meh.

For those who don’t know, the geassmania packs are basically my favourite stuff piled in a pack.

Such as, avatar packs, wallpaper packs, stepmania packs and so on.

The GeassMania name is made up of two things:

“Geass” which is a kind of “magical” ability found in the best anime of all time (My Opinion) Code Geass.

“Mania” which is derived from “Stepmania”, a Dance Dance Revelation like game for the pc

-

Ok, thats all for now, i’m positive i was going to mention something else…but i’ve completely forgotten.

http://www.msgpluslive.net/scripts/view/547-Xbox360-Stuff/

I’ll try and release my last.fm script soon…and i plan on making a whatpulse one when i can.

Might use a free hosting site..and do it that way..not sure though..mass ads = bad.
