The PlayStation Recap: What We’re Reading

Hey guys, I finally finished PixelJunk Eden!

…guys?

Late to the party, I know, but I’m proud of that Trophy.

Speaking of Trophies, have you seen the newly updated Trophy page on PlayStation.com? Pretty slick, if I have anything to say about it. I’ve made certain my Facebook friends know I finished Eden.

I also landed the extra-shiny Platinum in new release Guacamelee! You should play this game. Like, right now.

This week, you got a look at the inner workings of Naughty Dog in their new behind-the-scenes vid for The Last of Us, we showed you some of the ludicrous new minigames coming to Frobisher Says! on Tuesday, Keiji Inafune shared some tidbits about his impending PS Vita epic Soul Sacrifice, PS.Blog Editor’s Choice pick Dishonored got some new single-player content in The Knife of Dunwall, and plenty more.

What are you playing this weekend?

I’m playing: Guacamelee!, PixelJunk Eden, Black Ops II (Double-XP weekend!)
I’m watching: The new Daft Punk teaser on loop
I’m listening to: PlayStation Blogcast 069

  Are you running through BL2 on Ultimate Vault Hunter mode? I was holding off on all the DLC until they raised the level cap. Now that they have, I suppose it’s time to head back to Pandora…

@Justin:

Still on my first run, since i just bought BL2 off the amazing sale it got. Though i just checked this ‘Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode’ & it definitely looks like something i’d throw myself into. Loving it!

Were you able to keep playing Bioshock Infinite on 1999 mode still?

Playing: Persona 3 Golden, Guacamelee (kinda stuck on Jaguar), Disgaea 3, and some heavy hunting on MH:FU.
Watching: Random stuff on Netflix.
Listening: Imagine Dragons, heard their songs before but didn’t know who they were.
Waiting for: A Goddamn Monster Hunter for the Vita that’s never going to happen! Oh and Soul Sacrifice. Maybe Muramasa (didn’t finish the Wii version even though it was very fun and addicting, but not sure a side-scrolling game port is worth $40).

  Jaguar’s tough… here’s a trick I picked up while fighting him: You can cancel out of your moves with a roll. So jump > body slam > immediately hit L2 to roll out of the body slam animation and get out of the way. Works with uppercuts and dash punches too.

Dude, you HAVE to watch Code Geass. I am not big on anime and stuff, but that show is incredible. You will genuinely be glad when you’ve seen the end of the second season, and you will be thinking about it for years to come.
