Nice discussion thread, I77D

I've quite a few, and first off, you more than likely will disagree with me but it's Assassin's Creed II. I didn't like this game at all, and going through the list was a pain in my ass as those feathers were fcuking all over the place. Upon obtaining the last feather, waiting for the trophy to pop, nothing happened. So, I said fcuk it. I wasted an entire Friday night collecting these dumbass feathers on this shit game, on to the next one.

Now, this is a game I really enjoyed, right next to Assassin's Creed which is Brotherhood. I was cleaning up the multiplayer trophies before going back to SP to finally start up the DLC (going for a 100% because it was that much fun), Lvl. 25 halfway to Lvl. 50 and had about 5 trophies left, I think? Uncharted 3 was literally coming out the next week and there were trade in deals going on since it was that time of year. Didn't have much cash on me so I just sadly sold it to purchase the game…

Another was Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones (or all the games, if you want to say). I played the games alot when I was younger and it would've been a breeze at least getting Warrior Within and The Two Thrones but since I heard about glitches to where your character would yell/scream as if they were to die, it'd affect the trophy. So I said hell no. I wasn't going to do 3 more playthroughs.

Dead Fcuking Space 2, holy hell. I just need Hard to the Core left, and the platinum is mine!!  But sadly, I had borrowed it from a friend and he later went on to sell it  I really did enjoy 2 and Extraction and hopefully can find a cheap copy (which I probably can, too lazy ) so I can finish those games up. Extraction holds the best memories and the trophies came instantly!

I have a few more things, but will list them later…  Anyways, I plan on going back through my trophy list and picking up few of these games to raise my completion rate. Been doing that with my current collection and happy from where it started, to where it is now

Saw Looper, End of Watch, Easy A, and Ill Manors yesterday and I very well must say, I ***NO PROFANE LANGUAGE PLEASE*** loved each film. Ill Manors has to be the top of the heap and probably the best that has been released this year!!! I have to praise Ben Drew for having the balls to do this project because it tackles some hard hitting themes.

End of Watch was thoroughly enjoyable and really explored how tough it is to be a cop in gang infested areas of Los Angeles. And I really enjoyed the last 20 minutes! Heart racing, sad, and action packed. And I really enjoyed the ending, it shows that it's not always a good guys win in the end. Hell, there is never an end to a conflict.

Looper was fcuking awesome and the ending was great! I have nothing else to say but I really loved this film, alot!!

And last but not least, Easy A. I actually enjoyed it alot, besides that musical number at the end  I thought this would be shit, I didn't think it was and had fun with it.

You weren't being an…

Finally finished my Chicken run of MGS4 and managed to now have 17/40 Emblems. I missed a few and gained some from my previous runs. The ones I missed aren't too bad and timed, made sure to get the 2 hours of this and that out the way ASAP!! Hopefully I can squeeze another playthrough out this week, but to be honest, I'm bored as shit playing through it. Talk about a drag…

And to talk about a GRIND, managed to get done with pretty much most of the trophies in PAYDAY. Just need $275 million and the plat is mine  Wanted to grind it all this week so I can have a Thanksgiving plat, but I can give two shits less of when I have it. I'm just happy finally getting the damn thing!!  Might do 145+ OVERKILL on Diamond Heist as it will net me some more cash

And last but not least, finally got my Dead Nation 100% and happy about that. Round 10 was a bitch to get to and even co-op it was still a bit tough. Managed to do it solo and it was midnight, literally turned on my PS3 and started playing, got it, then went to bed. Don't worry Em, if you still need help, I'm right here

@ gr8jrfan

Hey man, I'm not making you out to be an idiot. Perhaps it was poor wording on your part and probably how I took it, but it seemed as if you were only meaning FPS's have to be only Military shooters. Military shooters don't need an epic poem or etc. but at least let me find something to keep me going instead of,”America's being attacked!! Time to kill Russians!!!!!” That's all I get out of military “experiences” these days, Black Ops II could offer up something different, but I'm not really interested. *Pops in Black Ops II*

Anyways, been itching towards the PAYDAY plat now that I can almost taste it. Got 2 trophies left that require a team and afterwards, I can deal with the list myself. Have to give a big thanks to Seibei, Brendo, and Rowdi for taking the time to help me out with this game. It hasn't been a nightmare to go through, just a bit time consuming. But Seibei should be thanked the most for now, as we waited for 3 hours in a lobby for our bud to come and took us a few tries to actually get Noob Herder, which concluded in his BBQ sandwiches never being made . What a stupid as trophy!!   It's essentially easy but fcuking stupid to need  3 others guys with the perk.

Uncharted 2 boosting didn't go so well and these guys are too much for me to handle. I think I might finish up the co-op, but Naughty Dog can go fcuk themselves on that MP bullshit.

@ gr8jrfan

Since when did all FPS's have to be military shooters? Perfect example is The Darkness II. An FPS which has a story in which the player is interested in which doesn't involve evil Russian “terrorists” killing people for some silly reason. And military shooters can have a story, look at the Resistance series or even Brothers in Arms. Although they are very few, they actually try.

Managed to knock out a few Payday trophies and got some Uncharted 2 co-op done yesterday. Payday was getting tense but nonetheless fun as the trophy Hot Lava had me on the edge of my seat wondering whether or not a bud and I were going to be overrun on the roof top. The grind to million is almost over with me sitting on top of $600 million, so perhaps I can just grind it out since I've this week off?

Uncharted 2 was fun as well but the 2nd Co-op objective on Hard was a bit frustrating. We were stuck in this position for 10 minutes not knowing what to do, until I realized it and tried to do it, almost done with it, then everyone dying out of the blue . Took us an hour on that objective and it's still not done, but we plan on getting it done later this week. The other trophies were a breeze though and required little to no work, thus far.

Well Trailer #2 is out and it looks pretty cool. But, I'm more anxious to see how the MP portion will work out and what game modes there are? This is probably the first game that I'm more excited of MP rather than the SP. Grand Theft Auto IV MP was great… Why wouldn't this be?

Haven't felt that amount of hype since TDKR!

Both films were hyped, and both didn't live up to it.

We'll always disagree on movie choice. That much I remembered from our conversation/debates but I seem to remember one factor that you brought up that nearly brought me to tears of laughter. Is Skyfall too mainstream?

I guess? But I also guess you didn't also get the point as to why I didn't like so much mainstream stuff, at that moment… I hyped the film up along with The Dark Knight Rises with both being less than stellar, although Skyfall was certainly better than Rises…

And that factor was from a discussion about The Walking Dead…
