^ Love the gameplay in that one.
Anyway, last night I found out the exact capacity of my backpack: 5.3" x 11.6" x 13.9" and not an inch more. Of course I could have figured this out without spending $350, but where's the fun in that?
(Translation: I picked up a Wii U.)

Shank 2. Great game might I add from what I've played.

Spec Ops: The Line.
Or, more accurately, just completed it. The mechanics themselves are just run of the mill for a third person shooter, but holy shit the writing and the setting. This is among my top 5 games of all time, and definitely put me off modern shooters, at least for now. It'll be a looong time before I enjoy them, and I think Spec Ops put the final nail on the coffin that says "I'll never play another Call of Duty game in my life".
So now I'm starting a campaign on Shogun 2. Bought the game, never played it until now.

Just beat GoldenEye Rogue Agent on Ps2. What an upsetting game.
Last level you get a weapon that can kill anything it touches in one shot. That's sweet shit. Slow firing and has a 3 round magazine, oh well don't wanna make it too easy.
Enemies get same weapon and can kill you in one shot. Well I don't mind a challenge.
When they use that weapon it can fire multiple times faster than yours in 3 to 6 shot burst, well beyond it's capabilities. Well that's not fair.
Enemies also get shields that can deflect your entire magazine and regenerate the damage before you can even reload. >8(
Fuck your shit, Rogue Agent.

Bosses in La Mulana (Wiiware) are definitely tougher than playthroughs on YouTube make them appear. Took like 10 tries to defeat Bahamut.
They changed the location of the Bronze Mirror (which unlocks the backside areas) - you don't automatically get it after beating Ellmac, you instead have to get the 1st seal (Origin seal) and solve the drain plug puzzle in Spring of the Sky.
Swimming in water doesn't do as much damage to you as before - but swimming in lava does even more. Even with the Ice Cape equipped, you still take damage in lava (but very slowly)
There are Anubis in the Temple of Moonlight everywhere - fortunately, they don't sap your HP just by being on the screen, they have to actually see you first. Unfortunately, they sap your HP even faster than lava.
Chamber of Extinction isn't totally black now - you can see about 1.5 sq around yourself. Unfortunately, you can't see anything (enemies included) outside this radius, AND instead of just having a few dark rooms in the Chamber, now the ENTIRE Chamber of Extinction is dark. And there's a new midboss in it.

Beat Quake 1 on hard.
Awesome game. Not really hard but it made up for it with it's awesomeness.

Currently stuck on 3 or so puzzles in La Mulana.
1 - Unlocking the Twin Labyrinths; aka clearing that cursed fog so you can actually explore it proper. I can explore the middle section somewhat (found one of the Grail tablets, beat one of its two midbosses) if entering from the Inferno Cavern, but I think the solution is via dropping down from Ellmac's room and you need the Twin Statue to do so. Which leads directly to...
2 - How do I even GET the Twin Statue? There's two large statues in the Labyrinth that you use your Flare Gun on, that much I've solved, but ... what? There's also a statue in the Inferno Cavern with a hint of "Turn left and swing your weapon; turn right and swing your weapon" (with a reference to the twins). I think that's related, but....
3 - Solving the four Eden puzzles. Rather than just opening four treasure chests, you now have to explore the Temple of Moonlight and find/scan four specific locations to reveal four pedestals needed to open them with. I've found two. I think my remaining two clues are "stand before a face of the highest rank" (?) and "beneath the dancing man's feet" (I'm sure I heard a reference to the dancing man already, but I don't remember where).
4 - Beating the Anubis miniboss. I'm thinking this is the last obstacle before getting the Serpent Staff (then beating Algon and acquiring the Feather), but ... how? It's nice of them to drop down a ladder so you can escape the room, but he seems invulnerable to attack. (On which note: I've never seen any other enemy, bosses included, glow blue when you hit them for no damage.)
5 - The entrance to the Goddess's Tower. You know, the one from the Surface in the waterfall area. It's covered by rocks now (in fact you can't even tell until you scan it, where your scanner says "the rocks in this area are a lighter shade". What do I blow it up with to reveal the door?)
6 - And getting pretty much anywhere in the Tower of Ruin. There's a weapon box there, but how does it open again?

Tried downloading Street Fighter X Mega Man but ... damn. I realize it's a fan-effort-from-scratch but seriously, the system requirements on this thing ... IWBTG, Cave Story, and La Mulana all run twice as good on half the specs.

I've never gotten pulverized in a game as bad as I am now. When people talk about hard Capcom games naming Ghouls n Ghosts, Mega Man, and DMC, they always leave out Giga Wing and Mars Matrix at the TOP.
These are the two HARDEST video games I have ever played. I'm seriously getting shockingly decimated on an unprecedented, maniacally brutal level. What the fuck did I do to these games!?

Making some progress in La Mulana. Apparently you need the Book of the Dead to beat the Anubis miniboss - then his homing death spell just drains your HP (fast) instead of killing you outright, and you can damage him. Got the Feather, used it in the Giants' Graveyard to get the Gauntlet (double attack speed w00t!). Now if I hadn't dropped those ice blocks in the Graveyard I would've been able to reach the Graveyard's save point and door to the other end of the Temple of Moonlight where it gives you a second hint about beating Anubis....
Beat the other Twin Labyrinths midboss after several tries, discovered the ladder that leads into the upper part of the Ruined Tower (how did I miss that...) . Opened the door to Viy's room, got the Earth spears, now I just need an Ankh jewel to summon the boss.
And I'm still stuck on the Eden puzzles. Got three of the four pedestals now, but where's the last one? Face of the highest rank ... dancing man's feet ... and I knew something was suspicious about that really bright and cheery room above the Temple of Moonlight -- apparently it's actually the Gate of Illusion. Y'know, the maze that's second only to Hell Temple.
