Raining on your parade with a truckload of awkward awesomeness.

Metroid Prime 2: Echoes (Wii)

Running around Aether and its sub-areas like a fucking lost puppy, since I have no idea where to go next. The game keeps pointing me towards that large dome thing in the Temple Grounds, but what looks like the most obvious way to get there instead takes you to the Temple up above D:

I have no idea. I also need the Grapple Beam and the Seeker Missile to do anything else, but no idea where to find those, either. Welp.


Persona 4 (PS2)

Just barely managed to scrape by the battle with Shadow Teddie, only to find out that my game disc won't go past the fog cutscene a few days afterwards, as a result of scratches dealt by one of the PS2 Slims I've gone through. Fucking joy, 'cos that basically means that I'll have to go buy a third copy of P4, as I bought a second copy a few days ago as a Christmas present for a friend.


Klonoa 2: Lunatea's Veil (PS2)

Finally beat the story, yes. When I played this game back ages ago, I couldn't get past the maze level in the Mira-Mira kingdom. This game is too much fun, why haven't you updated it or given us a Klonoa 3, Namco? D:


Bomberman Generation (GCN)

Awwwww yea, Bomberman goodness that isn't a lazy XBLA/PSN party title. Also, the Dangerous Bombs look fucking badass in this game. I'm still upset that Hudson's America-based localisation branch shut down. No more Bomberman for us, if Hudson makes any more.

Because Namco is too busy ruining my Ace Combat!

Playing some Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception on hard, and for good reason too!

Hudson USA might be dead, but since it's a subsidary of Konami and they own the rights to the Bomberman franchise, we can expect to see some more Bomberman in the future...hopefully.

The Grapple Beam is in Dark Torvus Bog if I remember and the Seeker Missle is in that place that you're trying to reach. You get in there through some vents you have to Morphball through if I'm remember right, have a look around the areas adjacent to it.

Oh god, you're in that horrible, terrible part of Echoes that confuses the fuck out of you by not telling you where anything is, or even pretending that any path might be slightly correct.

Wait until you have to fight the multipart boss. I was on the phone when I fought that thing...
"Goddamnit, I can't hit this thing."
"Oh look, a second form, as if this couldn't get longer."
"...and a third form."
"FOR FUCK'S SAKE, NOW IT'S IN ITS SECOND FORM AGAIN"

and then the game decides to hang a lampshade on it if you scan the corpse afterwards.

Time to consult the Metroid expert! TRANSFORM!!

[overdone and seizure-inducing transformation sequence]

Ok, I assume you have already gotten the Boost Ball, and have not received the Gravity Boost yet. Count yourself lucky I have written a guide for the game a long time ago that I never actually submitted anywhere. Anyway, this is an entry from Segment 10 from my guide and it starts from the elevator that takes you to Torvus Bog in Temple Grounds. NOTE: This was written for the GameCube version, so there may be some controller differences.

Quote:
 
[------------------------------Temple Grounds-------------------------]

[--Transport to Torvus Bog--]

Leave.

[--Torvus Transport Access--]

Avoid the War Wasps or wipe them out. Either way, go through the door
whenever.

[--Path of Eyes--]

Roll through the Morph Ball Tunnel nearby to the door and bust open the Green
Blast Shield Door with a Super Missile.

[--Hall of Eyes--]

Destroy those War Wasp Hives and leave through the door below.

[--Meeting Grounds--]

Go through the tunnel until you come to the half-pipe. You should see one of
the two War Wasp Hives from where you stand. Blast it so the War Wasps won’t
interfere with your boosting. Boost up the half-pipe and roll through the
tunnel that is up there.

[--Service Access--]

Prepare a Boost as you roll through this tunnel. Soon, you’ll come to a place
with a few disappearing blocks. Boost over those and continue. If you fail to
traverse this, you'll have to roll back lef through the tunnel below back
into Meeting Grounds and boost up the half-pipe again.

Bomb Jump through the tunnel and roll through.

[--Path of Honor--]

You're still in the tunnel so keep going...

[--Hall of Honored Dead--]

Drop out onto the ground and look around. You’re in a BIG room with several
things to scan. None are logbook entries, but it’s nice to know about some
things.

You see a portal CLEAR back in the hall. You can’t do anything about that for
it’s too high up. Oh, well.

Here’s a bit of a puzzle. What you need to do is to rotate those huge circles
on the ground enough so they are in a certain place. To spin those, what
better gadget then the Spinner? There are four and they’re color-coded.

To solve this puzzle, spin the Spinners in this order: purple, blue, yellow,
red. Keep spinning until the outermost circle of what your spinning lights
up. Keep going until all circles are glowing yellowish. When that happens,
the security device in the center will be destroyed and it’ll release the
Seeker Missile Launcher. Pick up you new toy.

===SEEKER MISSILE LAUNCHER ACQUIRED!!===

Whee! You can now hit 5 targets at the same time, or hit one target with 5
missile at the same time. To use, hold Y and manually aim to cover the
targets. An orange ridicule marks the target if it’s locked on to. Use this
new technique on the Purple Blast Shield Door in this room. Lock onto those 5
purple blotches with your Seekers and watch it go boom.

This upgrade also counts as a MISSILE EXPANSION (95).

**SEGMENT X COMPLETED!!**
**SEEKER MISSILE LAUNCHER ACQUIRED!!**

SUMMARY: Retrieved missile arsenal upgrade.


You will need to fetch the Seeker Missile Launcher before getting anything else. You can also get the optional Darkburst Missile Combo after getting it in Agon Wastes, but the game will try to prompt you to go get the Gravity Boost then the Grapple Beam, both in Torvus Bog.

I like it when people use the word "gay" in any context other than a homosexual one - it only proves that they have the maturity of a five year old, as if their obsession with shooters didn't already do a good job of pointing that out. It's also pretty amusing that he pointed out Skyrim considering the fact that, y'know, it's set in the bloody medival era and doesn't even have muskets, let alone generic modern firearms.

But just for fun, let's play around with his logic a bit.

game - gun = gay
game + gun = -gay
game + gun + Arem = ???

I don't mean to nitpick on a dead guide, but I have to snicker at the use of an "orange ridicule" to mark targets. "AND NOW, I SHALL KILL YOU BY BADGERING YOU AND SLINGING INSULTS!"

That's what happens when I use NotePad to write a guide, because GameFAQs doesn't accept .docx files.

Been playing this PS1 game on the psp... well not this version, the one before it. This is a PS2 version I think.
Seriously, why did they stop making these? It's like an entirely new genre in its own way. It's like playing Home Alone.

Sonic Generations (3DS)

It's not bad, but god can the levels be cheap. I'm currently stuck on Emerald Coast because they added some bullshit in it. There are too many instant death marks with no warning. The special stages are welcome though (play them in 3D if you can), and there's an interesting system for obtaining upgrades. After I beat the Launch Base boss, whatever it's called, and after a series of cutscenes, Classic Sonic learned the Homing Attack.

Cleared Classic with all characters, now I need to do All-Star with all of them so I can get the Final Smash trophies. Also, 99-Stock slow motion sudden death matches are fun :3

Not at all. FF7 was probably my favorite game ever when I was in elementary school. I'm just playing it again to remind myself just why I think it's so lackluster these days.

And ffs, I'm not sure which is worse: The fact that everything costs so goddamned much in game, that I can steal Ethers off the enemies next to Midgar and sell them for exorbitant amounts, or the fact that I stole most of my equipment off of enemy encounters and thus have never needed to stock up on new weapons or armor for over four major towns.

Oh, I think I know: The fact that none of my characters have dropped to 0 HP yet.
