I had one pretty hard boss battle in Chapter 12 of Final Fantasy 13, but the one immediately after that...

Here's this GIF to ilustrate the MFW:

Finished Half-Life, onto Half-Life 2, decided to skip the HL expansions; Game has aged too poorly.

Another cheap boss that I have to get through in Final Fantasy XIII, just as Chapter 12 is finally coming to a close.

And I did a few rounds of Spiral Knights. It's starting to grow on me.

I really enjoyed FF 13, in fact Ive giving myself a break from it right now because I felt like id been playing it forever, Ive been trying to upgrade my weapons to the max, its pretty fun but the Adamantoise are a bitch to kill!

Right now Im playing Dead to Rights Retribution, I started playing this a while back and thought I should complete it.

Got Shadows of the damned through Gamefly. I thought the game was just popular through word of mouth. I had no clue Shinji Miami and Suda 51 were behind it!

EA, how can you have two huge names like that and not market it?!

Because it wouldn't sell, or they would need to pump more money into the advertising budget it than it's worth to get any increase in sales. The game is a niche title through and through with it's warped humour and bizarre stylings.

I've been playing Super Street Fighter IV: AE. Pretty good, but I don't like most of the new characters. Might try picking up Evil Ryu for the hell of it though.

Also just finished Beneath a Steel Sky. Really good adventure game, but not quite as good as I was expecting. I think it doesn't quite match LucasArt's finest (Monkey Island, Grim Fandango), but still really well worth playing, especially since it's free on GOG.com.

So if a game 'won't sell' , its good to ignore it?

They didn't even show the game at their conference, they basically ignored it as much as possible. That is why EA is in debt. That and buying Popcap for over a billion dollars.

How long did it take you to beat BSS? Been looking for another solid Adventure game.

Final Fantasy 13, once again.

After finally taking out an annoying Chapter 12 boss(another endurance round), I am now at literally the last stage of the game. So I'm now I'm gonna level grind like there's no tommorrow.

I'm once again in Gran Pulse, glad to see that now I take out almost all of the major monsters roaming around. Farming CP as much as possible.

Gettin' ready for the final showdown.

I'm engaged in another Crystarium Points farming frenzy in Final Fantasy 13. Basically just hanging around in Gran Pulse doing a lot of side-missions while I level grind and even take the time to build up other character classes, Vanille is powerful enough to already be Commando. I'm hoping to build up Hope as a Saboteur.

So far, I've been able to take out a lot of these bosses, yet, the A class missions are the ones that are a pain. Still haven't cleared a single one.

@Max_Cady:
Nice to hear you're getting so much playtime out of FFXIII. I never really messed with Vanille too much myself. I pretty much stuck with Lightning-Fang-Hope as my team throughout the game. Fang's a pretty solid Sentinel and balances the other two out nicely. The Sentinel-Medic-Medic class was a lifesaver in a lot of boss fights.

I've been playing Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit lately. The price finally dropped, so I picked it up. It's pretty addicting. After pretty much every race, I'm unlocking something new.
