WRUP: Ninja countdown edition

Filed under: Fan stuff, What are you playing?

Action fans may have noticed a certain tingling over the last few days, a disturbance in the Force, if you will. While it's possible that such tingling is the result of possible health problem, we're more than willing to bet that you're just sensing the imminent arrival of Ninja Gaiden II next Tuesday. Who knows, maybe you even have a Japanese friend who was nice enough to let you play the demo. If you can, we suggest that it should be what you play this weekend. Still, it's WRUP, so we have to ask: what will you be playing this weekend.

GTA and Rock Band, of course.

Maybe some Boom Blox, if I'm feeling froggy.

GTA. Still need to finish off a TON of stuff. Need to finish Stevie's deliveries of cars, races (which I happen to be raping the shit out of the competition in), most wanted missions, weird people, pigeons, and finally stunt jumps. that should bring me to 100%. In like a couple weeks probably. LOL

HazyCloud said...

I hear ya. I'm at 90% and I've found about 20 jumps and 5 pigeons (all races,deliveries,random characters and all police missions are done). I have noticed that for every jump you hit, your percentage does not go up. I was at 90 when I had one and I'm stil at 90 after 20 found.

I'll be grabbing my last 30 tonight and then start working on those damn orange birds!

DjDATZ said...

Yea, I'm about halfway through Stevie's deliveries, and done the drug deliveries. Jumps and crazy people I've barely scraped (like 1 or 2 of each), but those were mostly by accident. lol

Pigeons I have not done even ONE of, because I want to start with a clean sheet. My brother wanted to shoot one yesterday, but I wouldn't let him. lol I'm at 74%.

Oh and I have to take my last helitour for the achievement. :D

Wii Fit and maybe some Halo double XP.

Ninja Gaiden II is pretty good, camera angles are a pain sometimes but the weapon kills make up for it. ;)

Jonman said...

If it's just me, GTA, and maybe some Forza, Half Life 2 (I know I'm 4 years late to the party).

If the wife wants in, then cheevo hunting in Rock Band, or some Williams Pinball Hall of Fame, which, in absence of Boom Blox is our go-to multiplayer game at the moment.

Now that I've picked up some cheap M$ from Target, maybe I'll pick up the Penny Arcade game.

PrivateBurke said...

GTA IV, COD:4 and I should go back and see Commander Shepard.

Who's exited about Ninja Gainden anyways? It's going to suck big time I can feel it.

GTA IV "Wrong is Right" mission over and over and over I'm sure.

OrgunDonor said...

Ill be playing the waiting game unfortunately. Possibly pick up GTA4 again, but havent had the urge to play it after completeing all the main missions. Have started playing Army of Two again which i forgot how enjoyable it was. Oh and more then likely some of CoD4. God bless a broken foot and bad weather!

Nothing!!! I have been RROD'd and I just received my coffin...(TAPS plays mournfully in the background)

GTA4 -- trying to beat last mission which is turning out to be quite rote as well as annoying at the end.

Ninja Gaiden 1 to get all warmed up for NG2. Man, that game is hard. Hopefully get myself familiarized with the controls enough to not have to start NG2 on the easiest difficulty level.

COD4 with my clan buddies, as always. More GTA IV and maybe rent GRID as well.
