I Have All the Trophies for Tekken...finally.

the last things i needed to do was play 30 rounds online and beat 10 rounds of survival.

i've been going at survival ever since i beat nancy. it's easy from round 1-3. then they start moving in 4-6. once you get to 7, you can't stop hitting them or else they won't stop hitting you. at round 9, it's like when the difficulty went to ultra hard while i was trying to beat nancy. the game was just trolling. every thing to do is blocked, or get jabbed in the middle of your combo...

so today i was having a go at it with some friends. they were noobs. we got raeped. then i went to wash some dishes, during that time, about every 30 seconds one of them yelled to me about the other guy beating a round. he start yelling at round 6. he said the other guy got perfect. then at round 7, he got perfect again. and again at round 8. and then almost perfect again at 9. i was like "wtf, those noobs must be messing with me, beating all those rounds so fast and perfect too." then at round 10, they were talking about not going to win. my friend was apparently at half health without hitting. somehow he caught up and by the time he won, he was near dead. then they started cheering, and i thought they might be trolling me.

i finished washing the dishes at round 11 and went back to watch. indeed he was at round 11, all he did was use nina and slap. he was destroyed in seconds by roger jr. after all that pwnage and getting my trophy, he died to a kangaroo -_-  what's more is that he just slapped his way through the whole time.

then we went to lose online for about 15 times before getting my platinum trophy =D. those guys online serious have no life. they master all the infinite juggles, and go into massive rage combo spam if you deny them of a perfect round. >_>


now i can spend time on gunpla and anime =D

Devs Hacking My PS3 to Troll Me -_-

I was playing Tekken 6 the other day, trying to beat nancy with my friend so that i could get the trophy for beating it. To get to nancy, you have to beat 6 stages of arcade to get to fight it as a bonus round, which does not affect your progression through the mode whether you win or lose. Nancy is part of the code name for a haxpwn massive robot boss btw.

so i was playing with my friend and dying to nance everytime. since nancy is a bonus stage, when we lose, we go back to the arcade mode, meaning we can't press continue and fight it again. so each time we failed, we had to start over from stage 1 in order to get the bonus round.
here's where it got weird. after playing for hours, there was this particular run where we got to stage 3, and then we got ourselves destroyed by the cpu. no matter what we did, we couldnt beat it. it was also obviously harder to kill than the bosses at the end of the arcade mode, including nancy. it became so imba that it wasnt even funny. so we gave up and started over, thinking it was just the cpu using that particular chacter causes it to be rigged.

we started at stage 1 again, this time, the usually dopey stage 1 warm up guy has now become haxpwn like the guy from stage 3. it was too hard to beat, so we restarted again. this time we beat the guy after a few tries, and then proceeded to get creamed at stage 2 >_>

we tried to restart a couple more times, but the cpu was just as rigged. we came to the conclusion that the devs have hacked my ps3 and are playing as the cpu just to troll us, so we gave up for the day.
next day i tried, it was still rigged, but i seemed to have gained skills overnight, and was able to beat the first two stages after a few tries, but the cpu on stage 3 was just too ridiculous. i restarted a few more times and the results were the same, i could only get to stage 3.

i gave up and went back to do the same. the results were once again just as sad. then i went to check the options and looked at the difficulty setting. i was like  "O_o WTF how did this happen?" what i saw was that the difficulty was on ultra hard. so i put it on easy, and then went back to try again. after that, the difficulty felt like it was back to the way it was.

to give you an idea of how big the difficulty gap was, here's the list of them: easy, medium, hard, very hard, ultra hard. at stage 1 on easy, the cpu would stand around for a few seconds before attacking a couple times. usually they would miss if you were crouching because they couldnt tell you were low. on ultra hard, no matter what you make your character do, that same button input would instantly make the cpu do the corresponding countermeasure. so if you pushed down kick, the cpu would use down block against it so fast that you'd think you were controlling the cpu while your character would now have even moved. the cpu's attacks consist of mostly 10+ hit combos that end in an unblockable move... it was truly rigged beyond being beatable. it must have been a miracle that i was able to beat the first two stages at all.

the final conclusion that i came to was that the devs hacked their way into my ps3 and cranked up the difficulty in the middle of my playthrough and set it to max just to toll me.

now im too sleepy to know what i am typing after ranting on for so long about nothing

gundam.info promo campaign

i have recieved intel about it being available in HK even though it isn't listed as a participating country(cause it isn't a country) like japan. but apparently those code cards still come in specially maked boxes, although my source has somehow not been able to enter the draw... =__=
could be that they give it out in HK but don't let you use it, or the store could have directly imported/bootlegged the kit from japan where the promo only gives the one type of prize and the code is not applicable out side of the country, or that HK is a participating region, but each region's codes can't be used for an address from other participating regions(in this case a Canadian address). derp

btw, the mg epyons in HK also come with that special book...unless it is a japan exclusive but the kit was imported also...

Brain Pain

i was grinding in darksiders to get the battle hardened trophy. it took so much to max my weapons out. i risked crashing the system so many times because i was grinding in the ashlands doing the infinite enemy horseman spawn trick lol. in the end, i maxed everything out and bought every combo move there was right up to the max level. after doing all that, i didn't get my trophy.
i became frustrated and loaded my last save to redo the last part in hopes of the trophy being triggered. it didnt work, so i went to search for a solution, i eventually, after much rage, i discovered that the maxed out chaos eater didn't count as a maxed out weapon. i had to replace the chaos eater with the armageddon blade, which comes at max level, in order for it to count as a max level weapon and to get the trophy.

now im doing the rubberband horse riding thing. tomorow, i will have to farm the lamp post save/load reset thing to get my improvised kills...

btw im so sleepy and my head hurts now =(

edit: you know what's sad? during the time i typed this post up, i already acquired the dark rider trophy, rather than taking the apparently normal 2-3 hours. thats how much i was grinding in the ashlands...

My First Gunpla Post =D

heres a WEIP(work eternally in progress) that I took a picture of many months ago.

its more or less still in about the same state of progress but more broken... im never gonna finish this thing at this rate. the left hip ball joint is broken and stuck inside the thigh ATM... the support arm for the cannon is all cracked because apparently the ABS plastic can't handle enamel. I wasn't even planning to pain that part, but I got a smudge of paint on it and didnt feel like going through the trouble of cleaning it off  Orz
at this rate, it's never gonna be finished, therefore a WEIP.

here's a bonus reward for reading this post =D. if you can cross your eyes, look at the left side with your right eye and the left pic with the right eye. adjust your eyes until both images overlap into one. once you have that, just keep your eyes still and wait for them to focus. finally enjoy the stereoscopic 3D effect =D
