On the positive side, you get a trophy for it!

Holy mother of god, I finally beat the damn thing! Over 4 hours on that last boss fight on hard mode! Feels so exhilarating to finally do it!
I bow down to the rest of you who are getting S's throughout the game. I don't have it in me to go back to this game any more. It provided a challenge which I haven't faced since the NES days. The last boss was destroying my ego. But I couldn't quit...
With that said, screw challenge right now. I'm going to Tomb Raider so I can breeze through whatever they call "difficulty" in that game! Bon voyage people!
What a game though...

Well, I beat it...
Wow... Just wow...
It has been a very VERY long time since I've felt this gratified with beating a game. Everything was perfect. Everything. The music, the fluidity, just... AHH!!!! I don't even care about my left hand being sore as hell from the final boss, it feels like the sweet burn of quality. The last time I had a game be this demanding might have been when I was starting out playing Mega Man. I echo the statements of all the others saying it feels like an old school Nintendo Hard game, because it really seems that way. And I was only playing on Normal!
Will be taking a break from the game, but not for too long, got to get that hard playthrough w/ the Gray Fox skin & sword. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to listen to the OST some more while working on schoolwork.

This game seriously needs a mode where you can just battle and battle.

My controller's left stick is giving way.
I've already given up on waggling the stick to wakeup from a stun attack
Fuck it, id rather take an additional hit than break my controller and thumb. And every enemy in the game has a stun attack :EAugemitbutter

that's how MGS4 killed my first controller. fucking L promts.
Seriously mate, please take it elsewhere. You caused a bit of a stir a few pages back, so well done. You made your point. The graphics aren't up to your standard. Just don't start this again, unless you enjoy being called out as a troll.

It was worse in MGO, especially with some intense team sneaking games.
Ha ha the worst enemy to fight in the game is the camera.

yes, that's what i meant to say. played a lot of sneaking and a bit of team sneaking for 1-2 months.
Bayonetta almost did that for me (the controller still works perfectly, but the left stick is extremely loose compared to before...). Fucking torture attacks.

I know this has been said a billion times but seriously, fuck these VR Missions. They're not even hard, most are just trial and error with a ton of luck on the side so you don't get hit by a random RPG that hit the wall.
Who on earth designed them and did they even play test them to see if getting gold was a real test of skill?

To be honest, on hindsight I enjoyed most of them (fuck VR mission 17 though, that's not what MGR is about), especially mission 18 and 19. They get progressively better, the first few aren't hard to finish, but require you to have almost perfect timing to get a gold star... That might be get quite frustrating. However, as they get harder, the required times for gold medals become more and more lenient, which make the missions a lot more enjoyable.
Edit:
Haha my ranking would be probably quite similar (I might put MGR above Vanquish... I don't know, I'll have to wait a bit until I can decide). I'm not saying bayonetta isn't as good as Vanquish and MGR, it's just that I enjoyed Vanquish and MGR more.
In my opinion, the terrible camera knocks it down quite a few places, and so does double-direction inputs.
Oh, I agree these aspects of the game suck, but then again, Bayonetta is also far from perfect. It has 2 horrendous chapters, most of its bosses are quite forgettable (I only really liked Jeanne and the final boss -which was more of a puzzle than a test of skill anyway-) and it has severe performance issues even on the xbox360 version.

The ones that really rub me the wrong way so far are 17 and 9. 17 for being 17 and 9 for having the most annoying tunnel in the game - full of tripods and RPG assholes. They even have a tripod at the exit so when you slide to the finish, it enters the slow-mo mode.

You've lost your mind...
Beat all the VR missions. And I see trophies for the DLC mission are added to the list. When can we expect them?

M for marvelous and I totally agree. GOTY if the TLOU fails to deliver.
Now thou art just being disagreeable.

Thanks for that music. I was doing push ups and listening to that enabled me to beat my old record
wait, how can you parry while charging? you have to release the charge move to parry. no?
and holy shit at that Monsoon vid. he cheesed that boss hard. crazy.
So I just beat
. Will continue tomorrow.
My 1 MAJOR complaint:
- There is no reason NOT to have an on the fly weapon switch in this game. I shouldn't have to go into the paused weapon select menu and choose a different melee weapon mid-fight. It's done perfectly in Devil May Cry. They could have easily allocated one of the horizontal buttons on the DPad for it.
Other than that, some minor irks:
- Unlockable weapons have a paltry movelist. They could have easily done a lot more with them.
- Wolf is WOEFULLY underutilized. He should be an extra gameplay mechanic similar to how Shadow is used in the Dead to Rights games. They could have really fleshed out the circle button with this IMO>
- Camera is a pain at times, but there honestly really isn't any way to improve on it considering how important the Ninja Run mechanic is.
- VR missions that force you to use certain secondary weapons are not fun.
- Cutting pillar supports to harm enemies was only used once in the whole game, with such an awesome mechanic they could have really made more dynamic battles if the areas used them more. I was so pumped when I first saw this in the pre-Platinum trailer:
Overall I'm enjoying it a lot. Definitely is fulfilling my craving for a great 60fps action game. But I can't help but notice... had this game gotten a full 3 year development cycle, managed to accommodate all of my complaints above then I feel this game could have TRULY been GOTG material. This game is pretty much equal to DMC4 for me.
Sam, and I met up with Sunny and left for Pakistan

JP said the weapon switch thing is a memory issue.

His points about mutliplayer and replay value are spot on. Too bad most single player modes now aren't flexible enough to really support multiple playthroughs.
Just unlocked Infinite Wig B. First thing I tried with it: Ripper Mode. Meter does not drain.
Well that's pretty much that, isn't it? Game over, Raiden wins. There's not a lot that can stand against that, except for bosses. It's going to tank my ratings, though, can't combo much in Ripper Mode and Zandatsus are more or less out of the picture, too.
I'll probably turn it off again later, but for a collectables run it's awesome. This will make it easier to get the Data Storage that's held by blink and you'll miss them enemies. One cut, one kill.

The upside of having to replay a boss battle several times on Revengence difficulty is you get to hear the awesome music! Finally got past Monsoon.

Beateded it. Great game, so cheesy.
Fairly short game, but I had enough fun with it so I'm gonna make it the first PS3 game I bother to trophy hunt on.
Time for playthrough two.
During the last fight, I didn't know how to stop the heal, so I'd just blade mode his face and tank the damage.
Time for playthrough two.
When he starts to heal, get behind him and go into blade mode. A square should show up on his back showing you where to slice. If you do this you can stop his heal and stun him for a bit.
"Normal" battles.
