My friend issues me an ultimatum, challenges and intrigue ensues | |||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Righto. So, I was chatting to a buddy, telling him he’s an alcoholic and needs to cut his drinking the hell back (even by aussie standards). He got sick to death of me ‘lecturing’ him, told me to go check my gaming archive (currently at a bit over 300 hard-copy games), and count how many games I bought and haven’t even PLAYED yet.
The total was 43. Log in to see images!
So, before I buy any more games, I have been issued a challenge to play a certain amount through 10 of these (and beat at least 2 of them), chosen at random by him, before I buy any more games. The next ‘OMG INSTANT BUY’ (Blazblue Continuum Shift Log in to see images! ) is on October 26th. If I do it, I can lecture him all the hell I want, and he’ll buy me a game of my choice (BLAZBLUEEEEEEEEEE!!!). If I fail, I buy him a carton or two of beer, he downs the lot in a night and I can’t say jack **** about his self-destruction.
The games in question are: Army of Two(PS3), Chaos Legion(PS2), Forbidden Siren 2(PS2), Grandia 2(PC), Tomb Raider(PS1), Makai Kingdom(PS2), Stranglehold(PS3), Silent Hill(PS1), Chronicles of Ridmale reproductive organ(PS3), Mercenaries 2(PS3)
If anybody cares I’ll give a brief review of these as I play through them Log in to see images! |

Army of Two was a fun game. Short so should be easy for you to finish but I would suggest getting a friend or random person to play co-op with you. |

Yeah, me and said mate played through the first 3 levels, I’m surprised at how not-crappy it turned out to be, really. We’re both idiots so we immediately pimped the **** out of our guns before any actually USEFUL uprgades, and we found the bro-fist/yeah boi/’buddy’ actions pretty damn funny. We spent most of tonight in town doing the air guitar actions at each other at every opportunity Log in to see images! |

Oh, idk if anybody cares or not, and frankly I don’t care if they care, but here’s my review of Chaos Legion, in narrative format:
“Oh hey, this seems like Devil May Cry. Kinda appropriate, given it’s by Capcom circa 2003. Heh. Alrighty, prologue was p easy, let’s get into the meat of this.”
“Oh, my ultimate legion broke thanks to Instant Plot Device. Well, that sucks. I imagine I can survive fine without it though”
“WTF WHY DO THESE GODDAMN TURRETS KEEP RESPAWNING AND PREVENTING ME FROM KILLING THE THING CONSTANTLY REMAKING THEM AAAAAAAAAAHHH”
“This boss…is exactly the same as the last stage’s boss…EXCEPT THERE ARE 6 OF THEM AND THEY HAVE BACK-UP WHAT THE **** IS THIS *proceeeds to die 20 times*”
“THIS GAME IS BROKEN AS **** AK;DHLWEHVRWELOGRWEKGRWEKRRJKWE”
“ARGH WHAT THE **** WHY DOES EVERYTHING KILL ME IN TWO HITS GODDAMN **** CRAP ****”
“oh god only my minions can hurt these invisible enemies…..and they kill my minions in one hit….and I have no MP to summon more…..*hurls controller*”
“finally. that one stage took my 3 goddamn hours. just gonna beat the boss then i can get some ****ing sleep at last. *2 hours later* EVERYTHING SUCKS I HATE THE WORLD FFFFFFFFFF”
“Final…..boss….at last….goddamn…..its first 2 forms….dead…..only….this one…to go….”
Boss: ”’sup. *LAZERS MINIONS INSTANT-KILL EXPLOSIONS LAZERS MINIONS INSTANT-KILL EXPLOSIONS LAZERS MINIONS INSTANT-KILL EXPLOSIONS LAZERS MINIONS INSTANT-KILL EXPLOSIONS LAZERS MINIONS INSTANT-KILL EXPLOSIONS LAZERS MINIONS INSTANT-KILL EXPLOSIONS LAZERS MINIONS INSTANT-KILL EXPLOSIONS LAZERS MINIONS INSTANT-KILL EXPLOSIONS LAZERS MINIONS INSTANT-KILL EXPLOSIONS LAZERS MINIONS INSTANT-KILL EXPLOSIONS LAZERS MINIONS INSTANT-KILL EXPLOSIONS LAZERS MINIONS INSTANT-KILL EXPLOSIONS LAZERS MINIONS INSTANT-KILL EXPLOSIONS LAZERS MINIONS INSTANT-KILL EXPLOSIONS LAZERS MINIONS INSTANT-KILL EXPLOSIONS LAZERS MINIONS INSTANT-KILL EXPLOSIONS LAZERS MINIONS INSTANT-KILL EXPLOSIONS”
*3 hours later*
“Oh goodie. A 30-second ending. That was interesting. Now to NEVER PLAY THIS GODDAMN GAME AGAIN. I’VE BEEN LOOKING FOR A NEW DRINK COASTER FOR A WHILE. I NEED ANOTHER BEER.” |

Oh, for the record, given how much I ****ed about it, a different mate said if I didn’t beat Chaos Legion by midnight Saturday, I can only talk in game quotes on Facebook for 2 weeks. If I win, I pick a media instance, be it book, movie, show, etc, and he does the same.
Through much rage, sleep deprivation and frustration, I won.
Got any suggestions? I was thinking Twilight, but he LIKES it. :/

If he’s an alcoholic, I doubt his problem is buying beer and then not drinking it.
Also, Grandia 2 is one of few JRPGs that I really, really like. |

I would beat Mercs 2 and Silent Hill 1 as this would be the fastest solution to fulfill your requirements.
Also because Silent Hill 1 is ****ing amazing. It hasn’t aged well though Log in to see images! Be sure to look out for the Sonic Youth references throughout.

Something_Witty Posted: Pick something that a) he hasn’t seen yet, and b) is horrifying. Does 2girls1cup have any notable dialogue? But I guess he’s had ample opportunity to see that. I’ve managed to avoid it, hence not knowing whether there’s dialogue aside from vomiting noises Log in to see images! |

when you play makai kingdom make sure you dont get the etna ending your first playtrhough. shes at level 3000 and is nearly impossible to beat your first playthrough unless you knwo what you are doing. also silent hill one is pretty short |
