NES Remix (Wii U): COMPLETED!

Posted on 09/02/2014 Written by deKay

Much_too_hard.I’ll say now that I don’t have all 600 (I presume) stars. I also don’t have all of all the stars for the Remix I, II and Bonus Modes. I definitely don’t have all the Three Rainbow Gold Stars for everything either. However, I consider the game completed and everything left is “extra content”.

tumblr_n0quqzdpcy1svmpf2o1_1280No, that’s not a cop-out either. I have managed to 3-star all of all the individual game challenges, netting me a gold frame around each title screen. I even managed to 3-rainbow-star one of the games. I’ve also managed to get at least 2 stars for each game on Remix I, and 2 or 3 stars on all bar one challenge on Remix II. Importantly, I passed the credits screen after finishing Remix I so technically I finished the game there, I suppose.

Haha__No.There’s only Bonus that I’m missing some challenges on. Most of them are because they’re not yet unlocked (I have 551 stars, and the next challenge unlocks at 560), but two are because they’re impossible. Namely the “beat an invisible opponent” Tennis one (it’s not hard because he’s invisible, it’s hard because aiming is impossible), and the “get a hole in one” Golf one – I can’t even get it on the green, never mind in the hole.

So while I’m sure I’ll attempt and reattempt some of the as-yet not 3-starred challenges, for now I’m calling the game completed. I’m certainly not going to try and get rainbow stars for everything, that’s ridiculous.

Pocket Mine – New High Score

Posted on 08/02/2014 Written by gospvg

The app has now been updated to fix the gamecentre leaderboards & I managed to get a higher depth score of 267.

Stupidly wasted my rubies in the game to  get deeper when I should have used them to purchase more chest keys.

Next target is to get to 300.

Dust – Elysian Tail

Posted on 08/02/2014 Written by gospvg

Working my way through the many digital releases on XBLA & PS+ to see if anything bites. Disappointed by the checkpoints in Outland & scared witless with Outlast.

I really wanted Deadlight to be a metroidvania/shadow complex style of game but this is where Dust Elysian Tail ticks all the boxes. Lovely characters with great voice-acting & great gameplay.

You play Dust who wakes up with forgotten memories & his greeted by a sword & it's companion Fidget. They accompany you towards the nearest village which is infested by monsters. After you save the village the mayor asks you to go to another nearby village where the monsters commander is based.

You get given various quests from the town dwellers which open up more of the world map for you to explore.

The monsters leader Fuse is a Moonblood creature who are victims of a genocide by a man known as General Gaius. Fuse also tells Dust that he was a soldier in this war. I now have a quest to go to the northern mountains to find more information about the general.

I am waiting for more skills to unlock so I can revisit some areas which I can't at the moment reach.

Looking forward to seeing where the story evolves & what new skills unlock.

Outlast – Shredder

Posted on 08/02/2014 Written by gospvg

Just one too many scare for me to continue playing, the tense music & constant noises have you in the edge of your seat. Stupid reporter should have gone to the asylum armed with a gun, grenades, soldiers & new pants.

I managed to play Dead Space but Outlast just takes the horror to another level. I'm out !!

Shredder !!

Outland – Shredder

Posted on 07/02/2014 Written by gospvg

The checkpoints are too far apart in the game especially frustrating when you have managed to connect with a sequence of jumps only to die by an enemy.

This was one of those it's on sale & I have MS Points so lets buy it purchases & definitely one where I should have played the demo first.
