Topic: Games you've recently beat

@Kidfried: Couldn't agree more, I know not everyone has fallen for Unravel like me but I thought it was good fun the no deaths run was annoying for 1 section but on the whole not too bad.

I've just finished Ori & The Blind Forest and it's up there with the best games I've played!!!

@mrobinson91 Ori is a fantastic game. The Ginso Tree section caused me quite a bit of stress and frustration the first time but somehow on the Definitive Edition I managed to do that first time!

@crippyd: Man I want to play Ori so bad. Kinda sucks they cancelled the 360 version. When I get an Xbox One that will probably be one of my first purchases.

@Tasuki I think it's time you joined the Xbox One fold 😉 I think Ori will be quite cheap now, probably about $10-15.

@crippyd: Lol yeah I am hoping to get one once the slim comes out. I am sure I will be able to find a used fat model Xbox One pretty cheap. I just have other expenses to take care of first.

So, having missed the whole of the PS3 scenne, was on a 360 before, I've decided to try Beyond: Two Souls.

I have to say, I was amazed by it. The story telling was incredible, and the command prompts were really well built into the game. I am glad I gave it a chance, it cmpletely blew my mind.

Also finished with Uncharted, beautiful game, the story telling got back to where it always should've been, even if I was always expecting it to go back to silly paranormal stuff, or to end up being a re-hash of the same old stuff. it wasn't, and to me it is the best game of the bunch, humanised the characters, gave them a sort of depth, which the past games failed to do.

Having a go at Shadow of Mordor GOTY, I really like it but I don't get why it got so many awards, it's the kind of game you pick up when you want to roam around killing Uruks, screwing up with their ranks, Nemesis system is such a great idea for that, loved the whole revelation of who the elf spectre really is, they tied in the lore of LotR really well with this one. Not finished yet but looking real good.

Metroid Prime: Blast Ball (3DS)

Nintendo released the Blast Ball portion of MP:FF completely free (I guess as a way of trying to win over those disappointed by the game's announcement), and it's well worth the download.

In terms of solo play modes, you have practice, quick match, and challenge (a series of 5 matches escalating in difficulty). It also holds a demo for the main portion of FF, and a couple of the training exercises within (target practice, and a segmet where you fight waves of holographic space pirates) record your high scores, which are shared on online leaderboards.

In terms of multiplayer modes, you have local play & online play (though the online portion will be limited to those who buy the full game, sometime after it's release).

Anyhow, I finally beat the challenge mode after having the game for a week, so I'm counting it beat. I still have some achievements left to unlock (which take the form of new paint jobs for your mech, which is actually pretty cool), so I'll probably still fire it up from time to time for some quick matches.

@KratosMD, I think it unlocked for me after I scored my first goal (may have been winning my first game, though).

I've beaten a few games in the past month including AC: Syndacite, South Park Stick of Truth, Resident Evil Revelations 2 Ep. 1, and most recently the Captain Scarlett DLC from Borderlands 2. I have recently been craving horror games. Which is why I played the first episode of RE Revelations (which I think I might have gotten for free at some point), but I unfortunately don't have the other episodes. Now I am playing through Outlast because I have it from when it was free on PS Plus and I only played the intro back when I first downloaded it. I am really liking it so far I think I'm a little over halfway through it. Is the DLC worth it? I'm also thinking about getting Alien Isolation or Evil Within to scratch my horror game itch, but am debating whether or not waiting for a sale because of my long backlog and lack of free time.

@KratosMD: Okay, cool. I have tried out RE4 and Revelations, but the controls in RE4 were a little too weird to get used to. I did like Revelations though and I'll check out the other ones you mentioned as well.

Front Mission Evolved (360)

It's a decently fun mech game. Not the best game ever, but worth a look if you're into the genré/theme (more detailed thoughts in the Xbox thread).

Beat DS3 for the third time to get the last ending, just need to get the last couple of Achievements to 100% it.

The last few games I beat were Outlast, Mad Max, the Borderlands 2 DLCs and the Automatron DLC for Fallout 4.

Outlast was a game I started when it came out because of Plus, but after dying a couple times in the beginning segment I just gave up on. I came back to it because I was craving a good horror game, and that was one I had, but never gave a real chance to. I thoroughly enjoyed Outlast. There was a perfect amount of really tense moments, but also downtime that let you relax a little bit. The length was perfect, story was intriguing, gameplay was fluid and easy to control.

Mad Max was really fun at first, but when I took a long break from it, coming back to it was a chore to play it. I stopped enjoying the car combat, and the environments became very redundant and boring. However, the story picked up towards the end, but overall I was slightly disappointed.

I beat Borderlands 2 awhile ago, but came back to it after purchasing The Handsome Collection. I wasn't planning on playing them. I bought the collection solely for The Pre-Sequel, but I'm glad I did. I was in the mood for some mindless looting and first person shooting. Like most people, my favorite DLC was Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep. The story was quirky and fun.

Lastly, The Automatron DLC was short, but fun. I bought the season pass for Fallout 4 at launch, beat the main game awhile ago, and have been waiting to play the DLC until they are all released. I wanted to be able to come back to The Commonwealth with a big chunk of content. Automatron was a good re-introduction into Fallout 4 after being away for awhile. I beat it in two short sittings, and then played around with some of the crafting DLCs as well. After that, I started the Far Harbor DLC, which I am looking forward to. If it's anything like Fallout 3's Point Lookout DLC then I will be happy. Seems promising thus far.

Finished Transformers: Devastation over the weekend.

Great fun. The combat is satisfying and easy to do, and the presentation is spot on. Wasn't sold on the need for the different weapons etc. Environments are a bit samey, and it's super short, but I enjoyed my time with it. Definitely worth playing if you've got PS Plus.

I recently finished Batman: Arkham Knight plus it's dlc missions. Really good game, I'd recommend it to anyone who enjoyed the other Arkham games. The tank battles are a bit too frequent as are the sheer number of watchtowers and checkpoints that you have to take down. The presentation of the game is crazy good though, honestly looks incredible and I thought the story was very good. Also the surprise appearance of one character was incredible well done throughout the game, the way the game weaved their appearance into both the story and your free-roaming was so good.

I bought PS plus and have been playing Star Wars battlefront lately. lots of fun (^_^ )

I don't know that the game can be "beaten" traditionally, but just recently I got "Ackbar's greatest" trophy for beating every single mission. I think that counts for something right? btw, I wish there were more hairstyles in the game. And I don't know why the update forces us to wear stormtrooper helmets. (-. - ) Oh well. I can't complain too much since they finally included Scout Trooper (which I absolutely love) and those black trooper outfits for women.

Also, I beat Donkey Kong Country, which brings my total of SNES games I've beat up to 3. Sad.

@Utena-mobile: I've been really tempted by Battlefront lately (especially after watching the Death Star dlc) but I'm already picking up three shooters this autumn so I think I'll give it a miss. It does look good though

@Hego: No problem. Knowing EA they'll probably do a Goty version or something later on with all of the DLC included. You can just wait for that. (^_ ^ )/

Well tonight I finally got round to finishing Mafia 2 (despite having owned it for 6 years..) and I'm pretty close to getting the Platinum on it as well, which will be interesting because it's also the first time I'm going out of my way to get trophies.

Recently 'beat' the Gears of War 4 campaign on Heroic with all collectibles found (awesome looking game in HDR). Next up should be Titanfall 2...
