I'm getting bored of most of my games at the moment... I really need to buy a new console where I can play rehashed games. (Looking at Wind Waker HD)

[Shane]

Uh... Wind Waker HD has been improved a lot lol.

• Improved graphics complete with proper lighting effects.
• Hero Mode, you can choose between standard and hero at any given time.
• Songs you've conducted only needed to be listened to once every time you start it up.
• Improved Triforce Quest by replacing Triforce Charts with the Triforce Pieces themselves.
• Swift sail making traversing the seas easier.
• Some minor changes here there.

Now you can still call it a rehash... but this is the definition of a rehash:

reuse (old ideas or material) without significant change or improvement.

What Nintendo changed is pretty significant. So... I wouldn't call it a mere rehash, lol.  Just in case you are confused, remakes and rehashes are different terms.
 
Annnnnyway, since I'm on the subject of Wind Waker, I finally completed all the dungeons and now onward to do the Triforce hunt sequence.

Well its rehash/remake, I'm not hating it or anything. I really would like to try it

Rehash 1. reuse (old ideas or material) without significant change or improvement.

 

Remake 1. make (something) again or differently.

Not to sound literal but it's like convincing me a strawberry is a berry because it sounds similar. I doubt you'd be hating it anyway, since it is better than most previous installments to say the least. Just wanted to point out Nintendo has made several changes. Oh well.

If Ventus only had a Wii U...err I mean WWHD is a great remake, but if it's new content (dungeons, characters, new story additions) that you are looking for in this version, you're in the wrong place. That was one thing I wished this version had that could justify its $50 asking price (despite me getting this game for free).

 

I got back to Jeanne D'Arc. I'm loving every moment of this amazing tactical RPG. And it's very challenging I must say. This is a GOOD ripoff of Fire Emblem. This makes me wish Level 5 could make more of this kind of game.

I just got my PS4 yesterday. The first game I played was Flower PS4 edition, and I have to say that this version plays WAY better than the PS3 version not only visually but the controls as well. The motion controls on the Dualshock 4 are way more sharp and responsive than the Dualshock 3. The experience is so much better on the PS4 overall. I will be playing Infamous Second Son very soon. I've been hearing some amazing things about that game so far.

 

As for the PS4 system, I was surprised on how small this system is. It's about the same size if not smaller than the PS3 slim. I definitely like the design better than the PS3's grill-like design. My only gripe about the design is that there is NO rubber stopper on the left side of the system which means that pushing the system down from the left will cause the system to rock. I believe the one reason behind this was to prevent the disc drive from making a vibrating noise which was common on the PS3 slim. The Dualshock 4 is awesome. It's extremely comfortable and is up there with the 360 controller for best design. The new menu interface feels very stripped down compared to the XMB bar on the PS3. It's no longer customizable and the game interface can get a bit messy. It kinda reminds me of how the menu screen was laid out on the PlayStation Vita in some ways. I still have to get used to it. Overall, I'm liking what I'm seeing on the PS4 for the most part. I still need to play more games to make my final verdict on it.

I played about 2 hours of Infamous Second Son. What more can I say about this game other than it has the same open world fun that the original Infamous had? The story is pretty meh so far as it doesn't seem that interesting. And oh god, Troy Baker voices the protagonist Delsin. First Booker in Bioshock Infinite, then Joel in The Last of Us, and now Delsin in Infamous Second Son. What other game Troy will voice the main character next? (Oh wait, the next Call of Duty game lol). I'm having a fun time with this game so far. Though I'm hearing the campaign is less than 10 hours.

There were two sequels made for that particular game, though I use the term "sequel " loosely as each of the games are different stories in different places on the same world, using the same basic mechanics with some updates to the overall system.
 
Swordcraft Story 2 was translated and released outside of Japan, while the third game to my knowledge was unfortunately not.

Right, so at least I am able to try the second game.
I'm seeing alot of improvement and changes over the first game. The best improvement so far is the new setting. Everything is more vivid in general.

Redeemed Super Metroid off Club Nintendo for Wii U's Virtual Console earlier this week. Never beat it before, in fact barely played it. So I gave it a shot and completed it, and I'm glad I can finally say I've beaten it. Now, it probably is the best 2D Metroid game, though I had a couple of minor issues with it. Still very fun, but I'm gonna have to say Metroid Prime is still my favorite Metroid game. 

 

I'll have to play Zero Mission at some point, as well as Prime Hunters, before I can say I've beaten every game in the series, and replay II and Fusion at some point to refresh my memory on them. The Prime series deserves a replay too, they always do...

[Ventus]

Playing Tomodachi Life (Duh) this game is totally a blast. I love it (More then Animal crossing). I kinda wish someone else here had the game where we could share Miis or something... But you know not everyone has it

I played melee with six other people last night. Two of them were better than me. Rum and Jimbo. Time to get cracking.

Well, on Old School Runescape, Jagex finally made my dream come true. From the day I got membership, I longed for a red feathered hat so I could cosplay as a Red Mage in the game. Today on Old School Runescape, they got released. Guess who just blew a quarter of his bank for an item that will probably be worth 1/10 what he spent on it in a couple weeks? Me. But I don't care. I can always make the money back. If you must know what the hat is called, it's a Red Cavalier. Before the update they only had Dark (Brown), Tan and Black. Now they have white, blue and red ones. The red one looks very close to Red Mage's hat.

Still working on Mario Kart 8 at the moment. I'm trying to get three stars in all cups in both normal and mirror mode. Once I do that (or I get bored), I'll switch to Pikmin 3.

[Ventus]

Been chipping away at TLoz: Skyward Sword I've just got to the fourth dungeon... Man that took longer then I remember, and also still messing around with Tomodachi Life.

Just decided to check out Ys I, since I got it in a humble bundle a long time ago. I really dig the visual style and soundtrack so far, though the gameplay takes some getting used to. As does getting into the habit of saving, since one false move can get you killed very quickly. Plus, dat grinding.
