So games I completed the most... Resistance 3, Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time, Half-Life 2 and Deus Ex: Human Revolution.
Most Anticipated Title: UH. inFamous 2. Followed veeeeery closely by Resistance 3. I had count down timers on my phone for both of these.
Biggest Letdown: PROBABLY LA NOIRE. I was really excited by this game but then it turns out i am 100000000000% horrible at it and it makes me want to throw my ps3 at a wall so i stopped playing it and then accidentally other games. IT SITS ON MY SHELF TELLING ME TO PLAY IT and im just like NO YOU MADE ME MAD AND ANGRY. also the ending got spoiled for me so i lost motivation.
otherwise inFamous 2 left me feeling kind of uhm...let down. a lot. I ended up replaying inFamous 1 after I beat it. It's also probably a huge reason why I haven't played it anymore than I have already yet. I mean I have played inFamous 1 IDK HOW MANY TIMES ANYMORE but at least 10 or 15 or so.
Killzone 3 was super epic but when it ended I was literally left staring at my screen like "wait.....it...it just ended?" BCUZ IDK IT WAS SUDDENLY OVER. IT JUST ENDED. THE END. its hard to describe w/o you having play the game but trust me its kind of awkward.
Also Resistance 3's ending left me kind of :c but I've grown more fond of it after playing it 45830893 times.
Most Surprising Game: I want to say the Valve titles I played. I just...IDK MAN. IDK HOW I MISSED ON THESE FOR SO LONG. Half-Life 2 is easily one of my favorite games now...and I am like years late to this party.
Favorite Game of 2011: UHM. UHMMMMM. idk how i pick. NO ITS NOT GONNA BE INFAMOUS 2, BEFORE YOU ASSUME FOR ME. :D I know its kind of shocking and I do love that game but I love the first one about 9000x more. They changed too much stuff in inFamous 2 for my taste
I THINK I MIGHT SAY DEUS EX, ACTUALLY. Really hard choice though. Close seconds definitely Resistance 3, Half-Life 2 or Ratchet: Crack in Time (see a trend between this list and the "what i played the most")
Top 5 Favorite Characters:
1) ZEKE DUNBAR from inFamous 2. no one can win him at being coolest bro to ever bro. no one. i don't even have to give reasons. IDK WHY HE'S MAGICALLY SHORTER IN THIS GAME but his personality is pretty much the same
2) David Sarif from Deus Ex: Human Revolution. surely i can't be the only one. i have many reasons for this. i could bore you with them all but i won't bcuz im sure you like ur sanity. let's just say i've over analyzed all the things in this game and they all point to sarif being an awesome dude.
3) Charlie Tent from Resistance 3: OH CHARLIE. oh man. I played Resistance 3 the first time in Sept when it came out, and I thought to myself, you know this Charlie fellow is a pretty cool guy. Then I went on with my life. BUT THEN I REPLAYED THE GAME LIKE 20 TIMES THIS MONTH and suddenly charlie is the COOLEST DUDE. he's also a huge troll who trolls you throughout the game with magic. things like "LOOK UP THERE" and when you do he runs off letting you get gunned to death by chimera. or things like "OH THIS DOOR NEEDS TO OPEN LETS FIND POWER CORES" and he waits for you to leave before suddenly realizing the door opens on its own and he runs through it. the last play i did he HERDED STEELHEADS RIGHT INTO MY FACE AND HAD ME GUNNED DOWN BY THEM. (only to say "Oh hey, you made it"
4) Boone from Fallout: New Vegas. HE IS ONE OF THE COMPANIONS YOU PICK UP IN THE GAME. tbh i didn't think i would like him, but i took him in my game bcuz i wanted a pack-mule
5) Jorhan Stahl from Killzone 3: this guy. ever since i saw some of the trailers with him i already thought he seemed like a cool guy. playing Killzone 3 has only told me, he is in fact, a cool guy. In fact, he is my PSN avatar right now
Game that induced the most rage: Uhm. Either Sly Cooper (any of them) or Uncharted 3, honestly. Uncharted 3 had moments where it's like LETS SPAWN YOU, RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THOUSANDS OF GUNFIRE, that's ok right. and its like ROOOOOOOARRRRRR. and sly cooper i just idek. pooper.
Game I want to get back to eventually in 2012: inFamous 2. Killzone 3. inFamous: Festival of Blood. Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One. Fallout: New Vegas.
Games from previous years I replayed (at some point) in 2011 Resistance: Fall of Man, Resistance 2, inFamous.
BASICALLY I LIKE GAMES.
COOL.
RIGHT.
if you read all of this you're special.

Comments
Me and my soft spot for baddies!The one from Twilight Princess reminds me of "Father" from FMA: Brotherhood. Why did the change his design?! Don't they know that big noses are cool, especially in 3D...XDOnline I have seen some comparison pics of how the game use to look. They did an amazing job with the 3D version, right now I am doing the Master Quest! Your Like Like experience made me LOL!! I take much joy in the killing them...
Again, I feel the autograph I have was meant for me. I would like to get a replacement for the Zorg phonecard Multipass I have. Mine had more damage then I like, the good thing is they are not hard to find! Good luck with the book...;)
I have always wanted to go to a con of some sorts. A place where I can be myself and no one would care...XD
I've seen some of the comparison pictures! This is a huge reason why I'd love to play the 3DS one eventually. That and I hear equipping the iron boots is a tap of a button instead of pausing and switching menus like in the console version.......i want to see this. LOL.
MULTIPASS? lol that sounds kind of awesome. |D
cons are pretty cool! I like being able to wear goofy things to them. I've usually gone to Anime Expo in the past...but I'd like to try going to a game convention someday. One of the biggest ones is held in the same place as Anime Expo, but sadly its not open to the public so that kinda crosses it off the list. :(
http://www.ebay.com/itm/170749362897?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649
One day, I will find the set for an affordable price and repaint it for I have a feeling the paint job is not the best. I also need an icon of Ganondorf on his horse. Look at this figure of Link I found:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/320812732202?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649
Not only is the price LOL worthy, but so is the pose...XD
Now that I think about it, I think the only reason I really wanted a 3DS was to play Ocarina of Time 3D. That and I found the Zelda edition one to be spiffy looking! I mean, I'd love to get some other 3D games, like Mario. Though, the reviews said it was to short. Yes, you can put on the iron boots just by tapping a button or the screen! Though, I never played to original so I can't compare the game play sadly.
I do not think I took a picture of my Zorg Multipass?! The UK got a set of 4 Fifth Element phone cards, that look like Multipasses. Of course, the Zorg one is the only one that interests me...:P
A place where I can wear goofy things and not get stared out, that would be nice. I naturally dress goofy, so I get a lot of odd looks. Then why have the con, if it is not open to the public?! Is there a way to win tickets?!
This got long...xXD
I remember those figures, actually...I have a Link that came out around the same time as that Ganondorf. It was one of my favorite figures for a long time. :'D It has a lot of play damage though...because I got it around when we got the game. lol. I never ended up with Ganondorf though.
Yea, Ocarina of Time 3DS is the only reason I want one too. I just don't want to spend the money on a system if I only want one game though. :c Especially with the PS Vita coming out soon, and it already has 3 confirmed titles I am very interested in... its a little bit more expensive than the 3DS, but if I'd play it more it makes more sense to me to buy it for that. Besides, the last time I bought a system for one game I kind of regretted it. If 3DS has more games in the future I want I might pick one up... but for now I am leaning much more towards PSVita.
and i like sony. actually, if they made an inFamous game on vita i would buy it even if it was the only game i wanted. LOLTHE IRON BOOTS THING SOUNDS SO HANDY ;__; the original item equip screen was in the pause menu. So you'd have to pause the game every 2 steps with how often you had to put on/remove the iron boots. It wasn't super bad, but hearing that they made it a one button press I am kind of like....REALLY!? lol.
I wouldnt mind seeing a picture of the multipass...that actually sounds kind of cool. |D
I AM NOT SURE IF YOU CAN WIN E3 TICKETS... they do cover all the press conferences live on TV and the internet. Last year I sat around glued to my TV all day watching the press conferences...sure its not the same as being there in person but at least I get the information live and as shown...:D
AND LONG COMMENTS ARE TOTALLY OK.
I was deprived of The Legend of Zelda merchandise, but I do remember seeing the figures for sale at an Electronic Boutique store. Though, I never saw the figures packaged with the horses. There are some zukan like sets being released, though the first wave is just different version of Link and Zelda from various games. Maybe, if the first wave sells well, there will be more sets to come in the future?!
Knowing my luck they will only make a new figure of Twilight Princess and Wind Waker Ganondorf. Apparently, the one from Ocarina of Time and Twilight Princess are one in the same?! Ganon has a long life supposedly. What I don't get is the nose, unless he had a nose job while he was locked away in the Dark World?! I hate when they really mess with a characters design!! >:(
I understand the logic behind your reasons. With me, I grew-up with Nintendo so I tend to be more into games made just for their systems. The rumor mill has it, that another Zelda game is being made for the 3DS...;)
Speaking of iron boots, I had those winged boots!! They make Link (I actually named him Zorg, which should come as no surprise! Though, when I get mad at him, his name is Link!) slip all over the place. Which sucks, for the platforms I have to reach are often narrow and surrounded by a bottomless pit!
I'll have to take a pic once I get my bedroom back in order! Honestly, I am suprised I never did post a pic. I just looked over my past Zorg collection posts and nothing...O_o
There is probably some kind of random contest somewhere?! One where you get a VIP pass. Then again, I could be wrong! It maybe something to look into, for I agree being there in person would be way cooler! I just foudn this:
http://littlebigplanetnation.com/2011/02/17/win-a-trip-to-e3-2011-to-enter-just-join-the-littlebigcreation-contest/
I'm not sure if it was legit?!
THAT IS COOL, FOR I TALKS TO MUCH!! xXD
This is the original Fire Temple music btw! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOmOzWdHzHU
the difference is the chanting in it...which honestly I think is really cool! they removed it though because it's actually muslim, i believe, and people were offended. :\
LOL I HEAR YOU ON CHARACTER DESIGN........look at cole. poor cole.
I grew up with Nintendo too, actually. Before my PS3, I was Nintendo all the way. I actually never even had a PS2 because I loved my Gamecube... but idk, something about the Wii... I just... I don't know. Plus I had been interested in the Resistance games for PS3 for a while, so I saved up for one and got it and....so much fun. SO MANY GAMES! i always liked games, but my PS3 made me like them more than I already did.
LOL THE HOVER BOOTS.....YEAAAAAAAAH. they're fun like that. :D i can imagine it was probably harder to control on the 3ds somehow too... i've not messed around wiht one but it seems like those hand helds don't have as accurate analog sticks as console controllers do.
ohhhh yeah. You can probably win contests and stuff to go to it... but otherwise you can't buy a ticket unless you're employed in the VG industry because it's mostly a trade show. It didn't use to be, but I think attendance numbers got too high, so they stopped selling tickets to the public. :(
Ah, I was getting ready to say that sounds the same until I heard the chanting. Apparently, it translates to "I bear witness that there is no God, only Allah." Which makes no sense with a Zelda game, for Allah has nothing to do with the series. Maybe if it said, "I bear witness that there is no God, only the Demon King?!" Though, that would of caused a stink too I'm sure. I will admit, the chanting is cool and eerie!
You said that Cole shrank in height, LOL!! Maybe, he is older then he looks for as we age we supposedly shrink...XD
We had a PS and PS2, but I was still hooked on Nintendo but never owned a Gamecube. Maybe, it is the graphics?! PS3 is way more realistic then the cartoon like Wii!
I have found that the control button is pretty easy to use. I guess it is a matter of getting use to it?! I just know the hover boots are a pain in a tight spot. Did the original Ocarina of Time have a Master Quest?! That is what I have been working on now...
I read something where they were thinking of opening E3 to the public again, but I guess that fell through?!
Actually, I don't really care what it ended up translating to, but that was the reason people didn't like it. I think it was the muslim people that got offended. I forget how it works but there is something that they don't like parts of their religion put into media... something.. eh. I know another game (littlebigplanet) got delayed to remove a song with muslim lyrics in it as well.
My dad bought a PS but I didn't have many games for it outside of Crash Bandicoot and Spyro... I was mostly on Nintendo. :'D ...As for the Wii, graphics don't make a huge impact on me, its the gameplay I usually like...I am just not a fan of motion controls...and honestly there is few and far between on decent Wii games. By the time any of them had come out I'd already invested in a PS3...and I have enough games on that. Nintendo's new console doesn't pique my interest at all either. I will probably skip it.
Actually, Master Quest isn't on the N64 cart, it was released as a seperate cart in japan if i remember right.. but the gamecube disc version i have came with master quest on it. :)
I had heard that too, but a quick search kind of makes it look like they're not going to.. its ok though.. I dont think I could afford to go this year anyway. :b
I downloaded a 5 minute long recording of the original Fire Temple music. My neighbors probably think I am in here doing some kind of Muslim ritual now. Then again, I don't blast my music the way the woman next to me does. Apparently, the reason why the music was changed has never been truly revealed:
http://www.zeldadungeon.net/2011/02/why-was-the-fire-temples-theme-really-changed/
My step-father liked playing Spyro, I never played it much for I was into Crash Bandicoot 2 and 3. Now that you mention it, the Wii does not have a lot of titles that really "wow" me! I own very little games for the system, but I do have to following:
Wii Fit
Mario Kart Wii
Super Mario Bros. Wii
Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword
Pokemon Battle Revolutions - very boring...
I won more DS games then Wii games and like you the new console does not interest me.
The fact I am broke has something to do with that too, LOL!! XDFrom what I read there might be some differences in the 3DS OoT Master Quest?! I am at the Spirit Temple right now, so not to much longer and I will be done. Though, I am missing 2 of those golden cursed spiders...>:(
Well, maybe if and when they do open E3 back to the public you will have the funds to go...;)
I just watched that video...how odd. I'm super curious now but I guess we won't ever know. LOL. I'm kind of disappointed though because the original one is my favorite version. D: It could be because it was the one I heard the most playing the game when I was younger on our N64. We didn't have the gold cart version but we had the version right after it.
Yea I have..Super Smash Brothers and Mario Kart Wii and that's like...it really. my PS3 collection though.. e_e uhm well. I have 28 unique games. I've had my PS3 since 2008, and my Wii since...when it launched (2006...? 2007? i forget) ...kind of sad.
Its funny you mention handhelds too because I got a PSP first because of one game I really wanted, and only ended up with about 4-5 games for it..and my DS has at least double that. :b LOL. But this time around it looks like PSVita might have more than 3DS that interest me. HMMM. Still not sure, but Vita already has 4 games that look interesting to me and its barely reaching launch. :o I am kind of hoping that an inFamous games makes it to the handheld. A lot of Sony's other IPs have games on it in development so it doesnt seem far fetched.
....but also my PSP has less games because I hacked my PSP early on (because it lacked games LOL) so i can technically play any game on it.
even SNES games lolHAHA that reminds me! I always liked the do the temples out of order, just because I find it amusing. :b You can beat the Spirit Temple before the water temple and shadow temple (as long as you get far enough in the water temple to get the long shot). Its kind of amusing.
I hope so. It would be so amazing.. ;-;

I briefly scanned over what it said, short attention span is short...XD
The Fire Temple music will forever be one of the great mysteries of our time! It is like when they changed Princess Toadstool's name to "Peach." I hate the change for I grew-up knowing her as Toadstool, damn it! It also makes more since with the whole Mushroom Kingdom thing...:P
I was reading about SUper Smash Brothers, for Melee has the OoT Ganondorf. Though, I do not know if the game is compatible with the Wii?! Some GameCube games are...
I feel my small stack of games is sad too, at least the Wii Fit helped me lose weight!
I have never owned a PSP, instead I got a black DS Lite. I then sold it so I could afford a blue DSi, which I sold to get a 3DS. I will never sell my Zelda edition 3DS though! Hum, inFamous 3 for PSVita anyone?! 3DS titles are lacking a bit, but I hope that changes. Some games are just ol' 64 games, like StarFox! I mean, I loved StarFox but I want something fresh! I do not think they even cleaned-up the graphics like the did OoT?!
How can you play SNES games on a PSP?! I still have my old SNES...XD
I actually have been doing that on the Master Quest, I got bored with the water temple and went off playing in other temples! Though, I could not go to the fire temple, for you need the fire arrows. Well, I did a little of the fire temple, until I could not go any further! With the regular quest, I did the fire temple before the water one. Now, I did go to the well way before I had to the first time around. It was fun ticking off the fellow in the windmill! What a goofy little dude...:3
