I have now reached 49% in Donkey Kong 64 after finishing Gloomy Galleon, which was a cool level except for the fact that it was way too loving open and had a lot of stuff the camera kept getting stuck on and the draw distance made it hard to see a lot of things, like Chunky's last fifteen bananas. Alongside this, I have reached Kaos Kore in DKC3 with 54% and am planning to get 100% on it and DKC2 after I beat the final boss.

Perfect Dark also continues to be the single best FPS ever made for the Nintendo 64. I like good video games.

That poo poo was in the bargain bin for less than a dollar, what the gently caress?

Beat DKC3, so now I'm gonna get all the DK and Kremkoins in Diddy's Kong Quest, then come back and do the same in this one.

I can kind of get why people seem to look down on DKC3, honestly. It's a super good game, but something about it just doesn't feel as awesome as the second one. There are a lot of cool things about it that I dig, but for some reason DKC2 just feels better to play.

I've got 120 golden bananas and all bananas/banana coins/banana medals/banana fairies in every world from Jungle Japes to Fungi Forest. I am about to go do some poo poo in Crystal Caves. That rabbit was a real pain in the rear end, tbh. Doing a complete playthrough makes DK64's issues much more apparent, but I still like it. Also now at 74% completion in Diddy's Kong Quest.

I have a better challenge for you

get 100% on Rayman legends and Rayman origins.

As in beat all time trials. collect everything ever, and beat Land of the Livid Dead.

I've been playing 3D world a little at a time, in World 3 now. it's definitely a lot of fun looking for the stars and stamps and making sure to get the flagpole on all the levels.

the problem with all post Galaxy games is that Galaxy sets a really high bar - so high it's up in outer space!

3D World is surprisingly good after so many bland New Super Mario Bros games.

ASB gets boring pretty quickly, even if you're a big JoJo fan

I didn't get Rayman until a few months ago and I couldn't believe I didn't get it sooner. Kung Foot is worth the price on its own.

Also it's funny that Blizzard announces that they're moving away from MMOs because the gameplay just isn't there for the audience anymore, and Star Citizen has yet to come out.

This is what Blizzard said about Warlords of Draenor and 3 million+ people dropped the game after finding out it was a ruse. They reallocated people to Diablo 3, Heroes, Hearthstone and Starcraft because nobody is buying WoW poo poo anymore and it's been eclipsed by their other titles.

It doesn't help WoD is the worst expansion ever for WoW , gutting dailies, flying, and professions for a Farmville clone.

and yet FFXIV is gaining subs and about to release an expansion to an MMO that shouldn't exist. It's tipsy turvy world in MMO right now.

The writer of that article posted:

Despite how long the game has been in development and how much cash the project has raked in, the developers have been keeping their cards quite close to their chest – probably to avoid hyping things up too much in fear of their fans getting restless.

I agree that WoD sucks balls, but I wouldn't call it the worst expansion ever.

Its funny though, people were praising garrisons and the lack of dailies, even though they are the same thing except one of them involves actually doing stuff.

I for one am dissapointed it's not a hoax designed to defraud people... because its a kind of game I feel like theres no point playing without dropping several thousand dollars on. Which is a precedent I find terrifying.

I still think people deserved to get all their money taken on this. I know I am a terrible person. But they spent thousands, or tens of thousands, on internet spaceships that had yet to be coded. In a game that did not yet exist.
