Does Super Mario 3D World allow for 360 degree movement, or does it limit you to 8 directions?

They stress 360 movement so much that spinning the analog stick will make Mario do a Crash Bandicoot spin.

I don't remember what led to it, but I'm now playing Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate on the Wii U. I'm pretty sure peer pressure was involved. I can say that playing the full game is so much better than the demo in terms of introducing you to the game world and how to play. I'm actually having quite a bit of fun with it. Also started playing Dungeon Defenders on PC, which is ridiculously fun.

I'm now randomly playing some Minecraft mods on PC and replaying the Oracles for like... the 7th time now.

I'd recommend The Wii game, but they discontinued the online :/ I felt it has vastly better difficulty/gear progression and a clearer HUD/map/map icons (But a vastly inferior font choice).

Okay, so I beat Dual Destinies (a few days ago actually). And I really liked it. I still feel like Phoenix kinda hijacked it from Athena and Apollo towards the end, but oh well, it was handled better than in the previous game. It had possibly the best plot of any game in the series... but it was too easy. They never handed out penalties, the Perceive puzzles told you exactly which line was the lie, you always had the evidence on hand to break a psyche lock when you found one... given how much the previous games messed with my head, this one feels... I dunno. It's also the first game where I figured out who the villain was in every case before it became obvious. So I dunno... great plot, but make it harder next time Capcom. And let Athena and Apollo shine a little more instead of constantly living under Phoenix's shadow.

 

So now, I've been playing Starbound pretty obsessively, as well as the online Attack on Titan game, which is pretty much the best thing ever for all the wrong reasons. And now that I'm back home for Christmas, I'm gonna try to finish up Ace Combat Zero since I have access to it again.

More Monopoly. The computer AI is beyond clueless. They accepted a trade where I got Pennsylvania Avenue to complete my green monopoly for Baltic Avenue (giving the computer the purple monopoly). Thing is they don't realize Mediterranean and Baltic Avenues are about as profitable as lemonade stands. I mean the greens are expensive and hard to develop, but at least you get $1275/$1400 for a hotel compared to a crappy $250/$450. I also ended up bankrupting a green monopoly with just the Light Blues. Pretty pathetic, isn't it? Having a measly $550/$600 rent per time you hit their hotels bring a guy with the green monopoly to his knees. Granted, every time he got a third house on any of his, he ended up having to just sell it right back. The ending was pretty painful for him too. After getting nickled and dimed to death by my Light Blues, he went bankrupt because he couldn't afford $50 to bail out of jail.

 

Currently playing another round and am pretty much praying I can get a monopoly soon. One of the computer AIs have Park Place and Boardwalk with 2 houses a piece. The other one is playing hard ball with me and gunning down every offer I make him.

 

EDIT: I got cleaned. $1100 rent on Park Place killed me in one turn.

A Link Between WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORLDS and Sonic Lost WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORLD. I put a lot of emphasis on "WORLD" as you probably can tell

 

But they've both been so addicting at the moment and it's hard to decide which game is actually better.

Picked up Animal Crossing: New Leaf, been awhile since I played any AC game, so my life might be taken over by this like the other games did.

Pac Man 2: The New Adventures, which I would be surprised if anyone here heard of. Pretty much, you have to guide Pac Man around and use a slingshot to help him out. Just spent the last 3 minutes pelting him constantly. He keeps gritting his teeth, swatting at the air, then screaming at me. I swear torturing him never gets old in that game. Probably why when I was 13 I had a problem where I'd make and torture my Sims, mostly trolling them and getting a "What the hell, player!?" from them. They go to bed, I'd wake them up right away or worse, I'd put a TV in front of their bed on the horror channel and watch them be driven insane.

Of course, I've played that game and beat it quite a few times. I loved it, just because of the MANY ways you can die in that game. Regardless, the password system is pretty pointless since the game can be beaten in one sitting.

I seem to recall watching PushinUpRoses and PeanutButterGamer do a Let's Play on it. It was pretty hilarious, mainly because Pac Man would often refuse to listen to what they'd tell him to do, usually getting him killed as a result.

 

I don't know that I can list all the things I've started playing at this point. Over half of them will be left abandoned, so it probably doesn't matter anyways. I've started up La-Mulana, Dishonored, Darksiders, Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath HD, Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D, Dungeon Defenders, and a couple of others. Stupid Steam sale.

Starwars Battlefront 2. Reliving childhood nostalgia. I surprisingly wasn't too rusty after not playing the game for 5ish years.

[Fabbrizio]

Decided I didn't want to sleep tonight, so I downloaded SCP Containment Breach. 

Mission accomplished, I can't sleep.

Of course, if I can beat SCP, I can probably beat Dark Moon with very little fear. Though that may defeat the purpose.
