I wanna say I was around 33 hrs on this game, though that includes time I spend online between quests. I was LVL35 when I finished.

Dead Rising 2: Case West for XBLA. Got Ending A, which means I didn't save all the survivors or whatever you gotta do to get the Ending S. But I'm at Level 50, which means I don't have to grind my way through as many zombies. Now I can just focus on the achievements.

Yeah, offline mode has an actual story (kind of) and a bunch of quests to get through. Honestly, the single player of PSO is a lot of fun. Although now that I'm done w/ it I'll probably play pretty much exclusively online. Not sure if I'd bother running through the higher difficulties in offline mode.

I remember seeing it at gamestop, wanting it, but passing because I thought it was only playable online.

What a goofball I was.

1. Tearaway- PS Vita (Platinum Trophy)
2. Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag- PS4 (Platinum Trophy)
3. Resogun- PS4 (Platinum Trophy)
4. Super Stardust Delta- PS Vita
5. Galaga Legions DX- PS3
6. Under Defeat HD- PS3 (Platinum Trophy)
7. Ketsui Extra- PS3
8. Tomb Raider: DE- PS4 (Platinum Trophy)
9. DoDonPachi- PS1 (Japanese PSN)
10. Strider- PS4 (Platinum Trophy)
11. Demon's Souls- PS3 (Platinum Trophy)
12. Shadow of the Colossus- PS2

Shadow of the Colossus- I know this game is HIGHLY regarded as one of the best games of all time. So I finally decided to give it a try. I thought about getting the PS3 HD version, but I really didn't want to stress about the trophies (as I hear it's a hard platinum) so I decided to play it in it's original form.

The game was good. Real good. But I feel the controls and camera keep it from being great. I kind of predicted the story about halfway through
as I was sure killing the Colossus' was not the right thing to do after I killed the 4th or 5th one. I did not, however, predict that is it was Dormin who was split up into 16 pieces and after every one he was slowly being restored. The black smoke that envelops you after you killed each one now makes sense. I REALLY loved the twist at the very end where the Wanderer is reduced to an infant with the horns. Glad to see Argo, albeit with a broken leg, survived as well as the princess Mono. I guess Dormin at least kept his end of the bargin and revived her, lol.
I had no interest in playing Ico, but now I want to play it. Is it a direct sequel (I know it was made before SotC)? Because
in Ico, it looks like the protagonist has the horns that the Wanderer had at the end of SotC. So are you the same character in Ico
?

It's not an MMORPG.

It's an action RPG that also has an online mode that allows you to play with a group of other folks. Purely optional.

Ever play Diablo II? It's a lot like that.

The title of the game is a bit confusing. I assume the "Online" tag was thrown in there because having a console game connected to the 'net in those days was a huge deal + a definite selling point.

Nope.

But you're right that the title is misleading.

Wait, you played the inferior version because it lacked trophies? How does that make sense?
