Welcome back to SaturPLAY! In this edition, I will talk about the games I played this past week, as well as what I am playing right now. And of course by right now, I mean today; because I am typing this post right now. Anyway let's begin.
I finished Grand Theft Auto III on Friday. It was only the second time I have ever finished the game. For it's time, it is a nice game. I certainly don't like how Donald Love just up and disappears suddenly, with the game not even finishing the storyline properly on that regard. But, I guess it does fit the main character's personality. Since he never seemed to care who he worked for, as long as they paid him.
My favorite vehicle in the game was the Yakuza Stinger. My favorite character is probably Joey Leone. And I have always liked the talk radio stations in all of the Grand Theft Auto games, and Chatterbox is no different.
After finishing Grand Theft Auto III, the next game I played was one I knew I could get through quickly. And that was The King of Fighters XI. I don't really like fighting games, because they are more about memorizing abilities and button pressing. Fighting games are a genre I prefer to watch being played rather than playing them myself.
I played using two teams of characters. First, I used Real Bout Fatal Fury Team, which consisted of Terry Bogard, Kim Kaphwan, and Duck King. I lost after the fourth match. I then played using Agent Team, which was Vanessa, Blue Mary, and Ramon. I like Ramon, because he is faster than other characters I usually play as. I could do without Vanessa. She's too slow. And Blue Mary was alright as a character. But really, the only reason I like using her is because of the dog that appears when she prepares for the fights. I don't normally use those characters I mentioned. I usually play using Athena Asamiya, Sie Kensou, and Momoko. So using these other characters was a nice change.
Anyway, it was really easy for me to get through the story. I am not sure if I will go and play more to get all of the characters. I don't even know how to do that. But I am satisfied with completing the story once and earning the top score in Arcade Mode.
After that, I spent some time playing the demos and watching the videos on the Xbox Demo Disc 13. I found this disc while I was in my mother's closet one day looking for something else. I don't even remember what it was, but it was something that my mother was looking for and she asked me to find it. While I was looking for it, I found this disc and a couple others. I asked her about it, and she said that she forgot she had them and let me keep them for the Xbox.
Anyway, the only game I liked playing on this Demo Disc was the Toe Jam and Earl game. Everything else was not interesting for me.
And all that brings me to what I am playing now. I am still working on Pokémon Black 2. I have two badges now. I decided to work on making a great Water-Type team, rather than solely training Oshawott, now a Dewott. Which means I finally caught that Psyduck I was wanting.
However, I haven't been doing much traveling and training lately. I have been at PokéStar Studios filming all of those movies. It's fun. And challenging. It isn't my favorite side quest in the series. That honor goes to Pokémon Contests. But filming the movies is still enjoyable.
And the console game I am playing is Kingdom Hearts Re: Chain of Memories. I have both the PS2 and PS3 versions of the game (which is why I chose to put the 1.5 HD ReMIX picture on here), and decided that I would play the PS3 version so I could get the trophies.
Currently, I have finished the first three floors; having played Traverse Town, Wonderland, and Olympus Coliseum. I have never finished this game before. The farthest I have gotten was Twilight Town, in front of the gate to the old mansion. I am hoping I will be able to finish the game this time around. I sure hope so, considering I am playing on the Easy setting. It would be really embarrassing if I am unable to complete it while I am playing Easy Mode. Oh well, even if everything is easier, it still has posed a challenge sometimes. I won't be getting the trophy for finishing without using a Continue. I died once during the fight against Hades. I wasn't healed before the fight, and lost after two big hits from him.
And that's the end of this week's SaturPLAY. If you have any thoughts on what I have played this week, or if you have any suggestions as to what I should play next, feel free to leave a comment. Make sure you come back on Tuesday for the next edition of 3³ Gaming NEWSday. Until then, I hope you see no Game Over screens!
