I have a friend that's really into min-maxing and used to be big into nethack and etc. and likes to find games with tough mechanics and just burn through them. Spelunky got him seriously hooked. I, on the other hand, played maybe three games, died quickly each time, got frustrated and decided to play something that hits my reward centers more directly.

super mamc has now got me totally hooked.

I would have voted for Chrono Trigger if I'd finished it

next year, instead of "biggest disappointment" can we have a -10 vote slot that can only be used if accompanied by an angry rant? then we could have amusing entries with negative point values

Well then you'll have people claiming that their game won a moral victory, because it would have been #34 instead of #39 but for the HATAS. So yes, I am totally behind this.

Haha that said I'm curious about why you're hating on Pandaria, I haven't played it yet but I'm quite looking forward. It seems to have a more coherent vibe than Cataclysm's "Oh we'll have a sand level and a rock level and a water level and an unspeakable evil level"

Games from this list I have played last year are:

10000000 - and then after going to sleep at 4am two nights in a row I thought "Maaaybe it's time to reconsider my relationship with videogames"

Though I did play the demos of Quantum Conundrum / Diablo III / Star Wars: The Old Republic / Sleeping Dogs / Magic: The Gathering 2013 - Duels of the Planeswalkers/ Rayman Origins, which is roughly the order in which I'd be interested in playing them (will play / won't play line is probably between Sleeping Dogs and MtG)

Get 30 diamonds in one game yah fuck u super monsters ate my condo

Any tips

O_o-O_O-o_O (jjjusten), Friday, 22 February 2013 06:00 (eleven years ago) link

the Peace tip that DJP gave me earlier totally changed my game, i always use that now

30 diamonds - you're gonna need some Blue power for time (as with any strategy really), more Green power for Double, but mostly you need to keep making Cat/Garbage condos most of all for the constant upgrades

annoyingly though, all the multiplier goals seem to be broken (reach 50x/100x in one game)

Nhex, Friday, 22 February 2013 06:38 (eleven years ago) link

Yeah I had to pay for both of the multiplier goals, but only after I tried to do them without boosts or hats. Fucking bullshit

O_o-O_O-o_O (jjjusten), Friday, 22 February 2013 07:31 (eleven years ago) link

However I have hit the 1 billion high score now, so I have scraped my way into the top 20000. ffs

O_o-O_O-o_O (jjjusten), Friday, 22 February 2013 07:33 (eleven years ago) link

Can't hit 1 billion yet. Still at 800 million asjklfjskladfjkalsdf

Jeff, Friday, 22 February 2013 12:29 (eleven years ago) link

Pushed over 3 billion this morning but I'm still nowhere near Dan.

JimD, Friday, 22 February 2013 13:18 (eleven years ago) link

The multiplier goals are totally broken, don't know why

This beat is TWEENCHRONIC (DJP), Friday, 22 February 2013 14:03 (eleven years ago) link

buy the hats, they'll slowly push your score up

Nhex, Friday, 22 February 2013 14:04 (eleven years ago) link

dled this but oh shit, is this a game I'm gonna have to shell out "real money" to do well at. b/c fuck that obi

Euler, Friday, 22 February 2013 14:07 (eleven years ago) link

nah you don't. i thought that at first too but you really don't have to

Nhex, Friday, 22 February 2013 14:20 (eleven years ago) link

yeah you don't have to at all

I grabbed the game before it was free (;_;) and that is the only money I've paid for it

This beat is TWEENCHRONIC (DJP), Friday, 22 February 2013 14:37 (eleven years ago) link

sorry I failed to get a vote in.
woulda gone for:

1000000
Dishonored
Walking Dead - though this does suffer from some of the same QTE lag annoyances that happen in Witcher 2 which I am currently crawling through

did not like ME3 or Diablo 3 - got burnt out on both after a couple hours. still have not fired up sleeping dogs.

most of my gametime went to LoL and word games on ipad/iphone :-/

bnw, Friday, 22 February 2013 20:15 (eleven years ago) link

surprised Dyad isn't on here. I should've voted.

GM, Friday, 22 February 2013 20:35 (eleven years ago) link

it kinda flew under the radar here, even more than most PSN games

Nhex, Friday, 22 February 2013 20:36 (eleven years ago) link
