Look at that smug right there.... This is a fine creature of the species "Nerdus Nolifeicus". I would say that he is about 17 years old. As a young critter, around 2 years old, him and his kind begins to "game". Of course the games were nowhere near hard, but as the species begins to grow more and more conscience, their video game skills evolve as well. They are not responsible for their own actions, but their almost brutal openness and desperate attempts to be kind, so they can seem like that they have social skills, is somewhat admirable. They often trophy hunt in a pack of 2-3 animals, and even though they have a very broad taste of games, they prefer platform, puzzle, action/adventure and point-and-click games. They do not tolerate fighting and sports games. They use quite a bit of their spare time gaming, and uses most of their hard-earned money on games. They are though good at learning, and follows their education. But overall this is truly a sad creature.

I just thought I could also share my taste of music while I was at it. I will update this weekly.

Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn, The
Game enjoyment: 7/10
Trophy difficulty: 6/10
Hardest trophy: Showered in Platinum
Longest trophy: Master Treasure Hunter
Favourite trophy: Thom(p)sons Unlocked
Best moment: All of the platforming levels are rather enjoyable
Worst moment: The challenges, collectables and time trials
WTF moment: The Thom(p)sons in the background of the sidecar missions in "Tintin and Haddock" mode
Game summed up in one sentence: Long, enjoyable and repetitive.

My opinion:

Toggle Spoiler

Trophies:This game is the embodiment of the kinda of trophies I absolutely DESPISE!!! It have it all, Too many collectables, Plane sequences, enemy kills that needs grinding, challenges that shall not only be completed, but needs the highest score possible, PLANE CHALLENGES!!, a time trial and a trophy that requires two controllers. The only thing to make this trophy list worse would be to include online multiplayer trophies.

Gameplay:The game itself is pretty enjoyable though. It's mostly a pretty run-the-mill sidescroller with some nice platforming and puzzles. The sidescrolling gets interrupted by plane sequences, driving sequences, drag-and-drop puzzles, a few 3D walking sequences, fight scenes and escape scenes. These adds a nice change of pace to the original game, though they can seem a bit gimmicky at times. The game is really long since it has a total of three game modes. There is the adventure mode, which I've just described and then there is another adventure mode, where you can have a friend plug in another controller. In this game mode, you can switch through five different characters, that each has their own unique abilities. This was also a fun mode, but it did get really repetitive. The last mode was the challenges. These were actually quite hard to get the best award in. There were three types of challenges; Plane, Car and Swordfighting challenges. These were annoying but also kinda fun, in it's own weird satanic nature.

Story:The story in the game doesn't really follow the story from the movie. Having not read the comics by Hergé, I can't tell which of them is right. There is a lot of elements, that fits with the story, but a lot that doesn't namely the disappearance of the main villain. I guess it's alright, but nothing really exciting. Overall the game is a good movie-based game, that while not graphic wise have been taking care of gameplay wise.

Afrika

Game enjoyment: 8/10
Trophy difficulty: 3/10
Hardest trophy: Item complete
Longest trophy: Complete Animal Encyclopedia
Favourite trophy: Complete Safari Mode
Best moment: Flying in the hot air balloon
Worst moment: Recording pelican sounds
WTF moment: Having to take a picture of the bugs on the tent
Game summed up in three words: Peaceful, relaxing and realistic

My opinion:

Toggle Spoiler

Trophies:The trophies here are mostly easy. Finding and photograph a few of the animals can be tricky, and getting the bottle is difficult. The game is also pretty long, so a quick plat. isn't in store here.

Gameplay:Absolutely relaxing. This game really deliver a realistic photography game (unlike Pokemon Snap, which everybody loves apparently). You need to take your time and be patient to take the good pictures. You need to think about angles, grip and shutter speed. Many people bash this game for being boring, but that's because they expect it to be fast-paced and action-y. There are actually some more hectic sections, like a cheetah hunting and an elephant chasing you, but most of the time, you just walk around, and calmly take pictures, which I personally think is what a game like this should offer.It isn't always great though. The car you drive in has clunky controls, and the loading times are WAAAAY to long. The game is also really long, which I like, though that was also the fault of the tedious driving sequences you had to go through every time.One last thing: The last mission is breathtakingly amazing... If you're in the works of playing this, be excited for an astonishing finalé.

Story:There is a minor coherent story about a legendary lion, throughout the game, but mostly it's just missions.

Overall the game is a nice photographer simulator, that is relaxing, despite it's few flaws.

Alice: Madness Returns

Game enjoyment: 7/10
Trophy difficulty: 6/10
Hardest trophy: Madness Prevails
Longest trophy: Everything Fit to Remember
Favourite trophy: Grim Folly
Best moment: Looking at the scenery of the very first part of chapter 2
Worst moment: Collectable hunting and chapter 3
WTF moment: Seeing Raz from Psychonauts as a skeleton.
Game summed up in one sentence: Dark, Twisted and Insane

My opinion:

Toggle Spoiler

Trophies:Hard mode is pretty difficult and there are some instances of annoyance, but it's mostly okay. There is some collectibles to think of, and they are pretty hard to find sometimes.

Gameplay:Let me just quickly tell, that the scenery is absolutely gorgeous... and now the gameplay. It's a pretty solid buttonmasher, with puzzles and various of other stuff, though these does not come often enough. The fighting and platforming gets very old quickly, and makes the game repetitive. There just isn't enough to do in the game. You get "How long does this go on?" feeling and that is not okay. I must admit, the structure of the fighting and the level itself does totally match the atmosphere and storytelling. I'm also a bit bummed, that there is only one boss battle in the game. You have a good selection of weapons and minigames to spice things a little up. The minigames aren't anything spectacular but they gave a nice breather every once in a while. I just wish there were more of them. There really isn't more to say about the game. It's like reviewing a piece of plywood, there really isn't that much to say. The gameplay works, but it's just not expanded enough.

Story:Hell yeah! The story is a bit clumsy, but the way it's told and the atmosphere makes this game so much better. It's all just so detailed and gritty and dark and stuff. I fell in love with the scenery and the general feel of the levels. It was so amazing to explore these sinister, but yet beautiful worlds. The plot twist was actually pretty good too, and I really liked how trivial and boring looking the real world were, while the Wonderland was colourful and insane.

Overall it's a gorgeous and well told game that unfortunately suffers from repetitive gameplay.

Assassin's Creed II

Game enjoyment: 7/10
Trophy difficulty: 3/10
Hardest trophy: No-hitter
Longest trophy: In Memory of Petruccio
Favourite trophy: High Dive
Best moment: Diving from the buildings and I remember of the tombes to be really enjoyable.
Worst moment: Feather hunt and the last boss
WTF moment: The ending... I mean what happened?
Game summed up in three words: Enjoyable, repetitive and easy

My Opinion:

Toggle Spoiler

Sorry on the shortness of this one. I don't remember it that well.

Trophies:A bit timeconsuming but by god this was easy. The story is not that long, and rest was just a few misc. and collectables trophies.

Gameplay:This is definitely one of Assassins Creeds stronger points. It's great. There is a lot to do, and you do indeed feel very stealthy, and running around and just doing shit is awesome. The story campaign is not that long, and some of side stuff gets repetitive. You also end up with too much money at some point, and everything just mixes in a puddle of "bleh" feelings. It becomes more of a chore, and that's where I usually wants to stop playing. But there is a nice set of variety, it just feels a bit samey doing it.... if that makes sense.

Story:Meh... I felt a bit uniterested. Desmond is bland, and Ezio is unlikeable in my opinion, and they just kinda fight some templars and that's it.

Hardest trophy: Complete 10 Freeburn Challenges
Longest trophy: Earn your 'Burnout' License
Favourite trophy: Jump Dead Man's Edge
Best moment: Doing all of the ridiculous jumps
Worst moment: Finding serious players, that actually want to beat the challenges.
WTF moment: Beach challenge, where every 8 contestants, had to jump over the 7 other cars... but it was awesome.
Game summed up in one sentence: Fun, Replayrich and Huge

My opinion:

Toggle Spoiler

Trophies:Aaah my first plat. Some of the trophies are a bit tricky and it does require either a PS3 or PS2 eye camera. I'm not sure, but I think the online is dead, so you'll probably have to boost that one.

Gameplay:There is a lot to do in this game. There are like 6-7-8 different events, plus a lot of bonus activities, my favourite's being Road Rage, Marked Man and all of those Online Challenges. They are all fun, and they, unlike many other games, does actually not tires you. There is a perfect balance between the quality and differences of the event and the amount of events to be like: "Okay, I'm now tired of this event, let's try this one". Unfortunately there isn't a lot of freeroaming fun to be had. You can enter showtime which gets a bit stale after a while, but other than that, it's just big jumps, smashing billboards and fences and beating a Road Time. The city is not that great looking either. There is not enough variety in the scenery. There is some mountains and there is city. Not that exciting. Fortunately the event makes you forget about that, and it still comes out as a long and enjoyable experience.

Story:There is one?

de blob 2
Game enjoyment: 10/10
Trophy difficulty: 6/10
Hardest trophy: Every collectible ones
Longest trophy: Every collectible ones
Favourite trophy: Soda Falls Liberated
Best moment: The whole game itself
Worst moment: The collectibles
WTF moment: The random deaths and cruelty
Game summed up in one sentence: Long, Collectiblefilled and AMAZING!

My opinion:

Toggle Spoiler

Trophies:Good god, there is a lot of collectables in this game. If you count all lightbulbs, styles, gallery stuff, liberations, environments and INKT-contraptions you would have over a thousand collectables. Other than that the trophies are pretty straightforward.

Gameplay:I don't know what you're thinking but I have a good guess. "How the bloody hell can you give this game a 10/10 when you butchered L.A. Noire, Tomb Raider and the whole God of War series?" Simple. I liked this game more, and here is why; The gameplay is absolutely fantastic. You go around painting buildings and retreating the evil INKT corporation by doing so. There are power ups and different color mixing methods later on. The game truly shines in the 2D levels and the 3D missions where you have to paint houses while avoiding the bad guys. I'm not sure why I liked this game as much as I did... I just did. I just have a hard time finding a flaw in this game. I never got a bug, I never found an aggrovating moment or element to the game. It was fun the whole way through. The gameplay is fun, the story is cute, the level design is fucking brilliant and has a nice scenery too. It was just a magical experience. Plus, it's Move compatible.

Story:The story is very simple. This bastard general has taken over the world, and has made everything bland. You then play as this blob, that works for the rebels to repaint the city. The rest is just an agent/action/road trip kinda plot. It's weirdly sadistic a points, but since it's just paint everything should be kid friendly.

Dyad

Elder Scrolls: Skyrim, The

Game enjoyment: 9/10
Trophy difficulty: 5/10
Hardest trophy: Oblivion Walker
Longest trophy: Reader
Favourite trophy: Glory of the Dead
Best moment: The Companions and Winterhold side quests
Worst moment: The bugs that made me had to restart 5 hours of gameplay
WTF moment: The Notched pickaxe
Game summed up in one sentence: Long, Epic and AWESOME!!!

My opinion:

Toggle Spoiler

Trophies:Surprisingly easy, but you should have a look out for missable and time-consuming trophies along the way.

Gameplay:This game is HUUUUUUUUGE! There are WAY too many things to do here, and I love every single second of it. You always know that there is more to this game even after you've played it after a good 100 hours. The combat system is piss-easy to learn and also pretty easy to master. Slice, Slice, Slice, Slice, Heal, Slice, Slice, which may seem redundant, but the game itself totally makes up for it. Unfortunately the game suffer from the OPSBG-syndrome (Over-Powered in Sand Box Game). You only need like 3% of the items you can find. If you have completed the Companions quest and got that axe, getting a fairly good-upgraded healing spell, a nice set of armor, Fus-ro-dah, a few lockpicks and you're set. I never bought any other potions than healing and I ended up with too much money to spend on things I needed. Despite that the epic landscape, the giant leveltree, the missions, the enemies, the side missions, and pretty much everything else in the game was more than enough to settle back those small problems... the game is buggy, but it's Bethesda so I do not know what you had expected.

Story:A bit forgettable, and fairly short, but the main story is not the focus here... It's all of those side missions. The companions quest felt like it was it's own game. It's not THE story, it's ALL of the stories, and together it holds up.

WTF moment: Mr. Monopoly looks really freakish and weird
Game summed up in one sentence: Family, fun and easy
My opinion:

Toggle Spoiler

Trophies: Most of the trophies are okay, but there are a few that sucks. Rolling a 15 is luckbased and takes a very long time. There are also a lot of online trophies in the mix.

Gameplay:The gameplay is actually pretty solid. The game works fluently, and let's you skip the boring stuff. Auctions are fun. There is a lot of varied game modes and add-ons, including a Speed Die. This bastard totally ruins the game. I was playing a game with my mom and I owned all properties except for three which my mom owned. I still lost, due to a cheap trick she did with the speed die. She placed a hotel on the first of her properties and everytime I hit a Monopoly man with my die, I landed on that property and had to pay a lot. So don't play with the speed die. Online is fun, when you can find any to play with. And that's basically it. It's Monopoly, what did you expect?

Game summed up in one sentence: Symbolic, Gameplaytastic and AWESOME!!!!

My opinion:

Toggle Spoiler

Trophies:They are a bit glitched. The trophies are kinda awesome though. There is a lot of fun and original trophies in this game. Co-op can be a bit of a pain of you're only one, but there is some graffiti on the wall in an early chapter, that kept me going: "4 legs = good, 2 legs = Bad ass" which I think they refer to how many players is playing the game.

Gameplay:Very enjoyable 2D sidescrolling shooter. The controls are very smooth and the structure of the levels are thought out. If there is one thing though, the shooting sections does get a bit repetitive, but luckily there is also some puzzle/jetpack sections and diverse weapons to spice things up a bit. The gameplay is actually very simple and sweet. There is also a co-op campaign, that is very fun to go through. There is only one boss battle though, and I think a bit more, would have made a nice addition. This type of games may not be for everyone, hell, I wasn't even sure I liked it at first, but the more I got used to it, the more I liked it. Give the demo a whirl.

Story:The story is simply... perfect. You play as Hardboiled... a rooster. The penguins have unleashed an incredible force against the other birds. Hardboiled was put in the penguin army as young, but managed to get away, and now is fighting against the penguins as a rebellion. The story-telling through New World Revolutions music is amazing, especially the backstory, that gets told through the song "Illuminate Me". The world is dark and gritty, which fits the tones of war.

Overall an awesome 2D scrolling shooter.

This is a ploy to try to make my CL 'unique'.... yeah, I know. I love top 10 lists since they're the greatest way to illustrate people's opinions and tastes. So for you to discover mine, I will post some occasionally.

Top 10 Video Game Songs (Warning: Spoiler for MadWorld)

Toggle Spoiler

I love music, as well as games, and when those two collide it can only become awesome. But which one is the most awesome? Remember these are the Top 10 video game songs... not tracks, meaning that there is vocals and lyricism. Two restrictions. Only one per series to make it fair, and no licensed music. The music needs to be made solely for the purpose of putting it in the game. Let's begin.

---

Number 10 - "Big" from Parappa The Rapper 2


The Song:
Parappa The Rapper 2 - BIG - YouTube

I didn't originally think a Parappa the Rapper song was going to make it on the list. I haven't even played the second game, but I did remember this song from what I had surfed on YouTube. The song actually takes a pretty good standpoint on being mature and meaningful. The synth keys are a great addition to the song as well. It's low on the list mostly due to the weird lines, that needs to be delivered because it needs to fit a certain rhythm that needs the correct button prompts.

---

Number 9 - "Look Pimpin'" from MadWorld


The Song:
MadWorld Soundtrack- Look Pimpin! (Final Boss) - YouTube

Ever played MadWorld for the Wii? Don't, the game is not that good. It's a bit too much No More Heroes except it's pretty repetitive. Though one good thing about it, is the soundtrack. Hip-hop used in a context of a game is not that often seen, and the best one comes with the battle against the Black Baron, the final boss. It's a very laid back and chill rap, but it totally depicts the fight. It does lose point for the rather crappy use of auto-tune in the chorus.

---

Number 8 - "Want You Gone" from Portal 2


This Song:
Portal 2: End Credits Song 'Want You Gone' by Jonathan Coulton [1080p HD] - YouTube

Yes... It's not "Still Alive", because in my opinion, once you get over the novelty factor there really isn't much to it. The song is rather simplistic and it's not that engaging. "Want You Gone" however totally makes you feel awesome. It's lively and energetic and it is electronica heavens. I think the humor does get a bit in the way for the overall performance of the song, but it's a pretty good blend.

---

Number 7 - "Plastic Fantastic" from Lego Island Xtreme Stunts


The Song:
Plastic Fantastic - Island Xtreme Stunts soundtrack [LYRICS] - YouTube

Yup, now starts the more obscure ones. This is so stereotypical late 90's adult alternative, but goddamnit it's good stereotypical late 90's adult alternative. It's actually a rather sad song, and while it doesn't exactly fit the mood of the game and the lyrics are a bit forced to be weird, but the vocals totally makes up for it. A pretty good mellow mood for a childhood classic in my opinion.

---

Number 6 - "Sanctuary" from Kingdom Hearts II


The Song:
Kingdom Hearts 2 - Sanctuary - YouTube

A lovingly passionate song from the opening to Kingdom Hearts II. This sets the tone extremely more so than "Simple & Clean" (the theme from the first Kingdom Hearts game), which shows more what to come. This does not only tell the abridged version of the story so far, but gets you pumped for the action and drama that is going to happen in the second game. A slow but really enthusiastic song.

---

Number 5 - "Stains of Time" and "A Stranger I Remain" from Metal Gear Rising: Revengenace


Stains of Time:
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance OST - The Stains of Time [HQ] [Extended] - YouTube


A Stranger I Remain:
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance OST - A Stranger I remain [HQ] [Extended] - YouTube

I'm sorry, I simply couldn't figure out which of these two songs I liked the best. They're both in the same kind of style though. "Stains of Time" is semi-metal and fast phased and makes me think of Power Rangers for some reason (I didn't even watch that show). It really makes your heart pumping and ready to kick some ass. While "A Stranger I Remain" is a bit more light but filled with passion and shows more emotion in a way. It's really hard to classify any of these as the better song, so it's going to be a tie on this one.

---

Number 4 - "Cities" from Sound Shapes


The song (or the best you're gonna get):
Sound Shapes: Beck "Cities" - YouTube

This one is on the border of calling it a song with actual vocals, but I still think it counts. Beck did an amazing job on this particular track. It simulates a war-zone and there is a good coherence between the song and the stage. The lyrics (the few there are) is actually also kinda desperate sounding. There is a need for a change in this weird post-apocalyptic scene. In fact it's just a really well made song... Good job Beck, good job.

---

Number 3 - "Shadow and Light" from Katamari Forever


The Song:
SHADOW AND LIGHT - Katamari Forever Official Soundtrack - YouTube

A nice "good-bye" type of a song that fits perfectly for the ending of a game like this. Now I don't get Japanese (I had no idea that a Japanese song would be on the list let alone this high when I first started), but just by the songs structure there is emotion and story to be showed and told. It has an amazing chorus and a tremendous build-up throughout the whole song. It's a very beautiful song. The vocals is absolutely amazing too over the slow synth and piano.

---

Number 2 - "Once I Was Lost" from Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken


The Song:
Rocketbirds OST Once I Was Lost - YouTube

I soooo wanted to put "Illuminate Me" on this list and it would have taken the number 1 spot, but that is actually a song from 2 years before this game's release. Luckily New World Revolution did make songs specifically for this game, and hereby I'm presenting this kick-ass song. Now this kind of music is apparently called space rock, and I can see why. A rather hectic guitar plays while electronica plays in a more slow phased fashion. This song is brilliantly set up and does capture the futuristic war feeling, and the rebellious tension there is in the game. Plus the lyrics are genius too.

---

Number 1

It is....

It is....

Is...

.....

"Girl In The Tower" - King's Quest VI - YouTube










No, just kidding that song totally blows.

The real number one is...

---

Number 1 - "Silent Melody" from InFamous


The Song:
inFAMOUS - Silent melody (HD) - YouTube

I absolutely adore this song. A morbid slow song, while quit is weirdly passionate. After the ending of InFamous (especially the good ending) hearing this in the credits is especially amazing. The slow build-up sounds almost painful in the sense of Cole's moods. This is just a perfectly fitting for the end of this game. The symphonic beats and orchestra just works. The vocals sounds like he is barely alive, but that's the great thing, because it fits the mood, plus the vocals are ambitious and passionate in its presentation. It's just an amazing track.

[Will come eventually]

Well.... It's a start.

[daftprophet]

I like this. Can't wait to see it finished. Original syle =

[DaRe_xLw]

I love it! I like that you decided to draw your banners. Even I wouldn've thought of that.

Also, the format looks really good so far. I'm expecting this to be one hell of a great checklist as it gets closer to being completed.

Oh and thanks for the shoutout.

[Chambers35]

That's an awesome start to a checklist Gyro very creative in it's own unique way.

And big thanks for the shoutout man, I really appreciate it. And I do feel special

[gyrocop]

I like this. Can't wait to see it finished. Original syle =

Thanks man... I'm always trying to be unique (more or less succesfull).

I love it! I like that you decided to draw your banners. Even I wouldn've thought of that.

Also, the format looks really good so far. I'm expecting this to be one hell of a great checklist as it gets closer to being completed.

Oh and thanks for the shoutout.

Thanks and you're welcome. Funny thing about the banners actually. I was making the banners a request for the GIMP guru's but they didn't get around to it before they closed down, so I decided to draw them myself, and make a joke about how bad they are. I am actually not THAT bad at image editing. I'm actually really glad, I decided to do it myself... It kinda makes it stand out, doesn't it?

That's an awesome start to a checklist Gyro very creative in it's own unique way.

And big thanks for the shoutout man, I really appreciate it. And I do feel special

That's because you are special. Thanks for the kind words, and the polar bear in your avy looks a bit derpy. It's really cute in a way.


Thanks for the nice words guys... I truly appreciate it.

I've updated the checklists with the rest of my platinums, although I'm having a problem. I would text to stay in the same "Row", but the images are too small, and the text jump below the images.

I'm planning to link and credit the trophy guides and write a description for each plat. soon.

[backblast]

nice start on the cl. waiting to see what it looks like when it's done

[john3007]

I must say,never mind when its done,its looking fecking sweet right about now.I love the banner and the pics,i think its very creative and the intro is just phenomanol.The layout of your plats and descriptions are just great and i particularly like the bullet points on your plats too.You have done an awesome job so far dude and if this is a wip,then i damn i cant wait to see even more.Good luck mate

[mattveego]

I love the idea of drawing your own banners. Great start!

[DaRe_xLw]

Thought I'd stop by again to see how your checklist is doing. I see improvements. Keep it up.

I have LBP2 if you need any help with it.

[Feral]

Nice, I like it because it's different plus you have some sweet plats.

Jeez would have stopped by sooner if I knew I got a shout out. Although you've got me wrong I'm not kind I'm a heartless bastard lol. Thanks for the shout out mate, I feel loved Lol.

[Smashguy]

Very nice to see your cool checklist, really liked the format code of it as well... Looking forward to see growing up!

Way to go!

[gyrocop]

UPDATE: I have in the last 3 days cleaned up 4 games, and got 4 new platinums:

Hasbro Family Game Night
Monopoly Streets
Phineas and Ferb: Across the 2nd Dimension
Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken

I know the first three are really easy, but I am a sucker for children cartoons and board games.

This also means that I have now over 30 plats. That may not seem as that big of an accomplishment to you but it is to me...

[StewartBros]

Your checklist looks really nice - very original in its design!

You have some great plats in there, too - I'll be sure to check back here later on and see what you've done with the place!

[dr_mayus]

I do feel special

Awesome checklist so far, it is always fun to see all the different styles people come up with.

[Luckay]

Congrats on the 4 new platinums Gyrocop, and I like the style of this checklist. I shall keep a watch on this one

[dr_mayus]

I just noticed you platted both Heavy Rain and Phinneas and Ferb so you have 2 Move games already
