Mario Kart: Double Dash!!-STILL didn’t pass the 100CC Flower Cup circuit. I tried as Yoshi and Koopa Troopa. Failed. Tried as Bowser and Yoshi. Got third but still failed to get the gold. So I decided to bring out the toddlers Baby Mario & Baby Luigi. I’m surprised I actually did the best with them. I got the silver tropy and came so close to getting first on the last race, which would have given me the gold. But every one of the freaking track wants to hit me and knock me around. Uggh!!
Tetris Attack-Yes, my SNES is still hooked up and working. I played a game that lasted for more than 20 mins but as usual, the blocks got too high and I choked. Usually, I can do better than that but I haven’t played in a while. And I wish the game would save your high scores and all.
GTA: San Andreas-Ran over a ton of Ballers, took their money and guns. And crack dealers = walking ATM machines. Don’t think I mentioned it but I killed Denise sometime last year when I was playing. Girl just got on my nerves. Always calling me. Ugh. She had to go.
Ikaruga - On the GameCube
Resident Evil 4
Streets of Rage Series
Street Fighter 3:TS - Seriously outta of practice.
Tekken 5 - Ditching Nina, moving to Raven.
Xmen vs Streetfighter - For old time sakes.
Well I started y copy of Dance Dance Revolution Max 2 last night. This game is all about rythm and timing. DDRM2 (or any DDR game for that matter) is not one of those games where you can blame the controls for a foul-up. If you screw up, it’s all YOUR fault. That being said, even though I sucked at first, I had a lot of fun and the Lesson Mode helped improve my game A LOT. There are a lot of songs in here that I’ve never heard of. Lots of techno beats and even one of the best '70s songs, “Get Down Tonight” is in here. I’m a bit bumped that Scotty D’s “Drop The Bomb” isn’t in this version. I think it is in DDR Extreme so I’ll pick that up eventually. My parents, sister and brother-in-law all came over to my place last night and all except my mom played DDRM2. It was a lot of fun. Since I’m still a n00b to DDR, I’m playing on Beginner.
EDIT: Just passed Game Mode with a B rank at last. After getting nothing but Ds and Es on song, I’m finally getting As and Bs. W00t!!
Im playing warcraft 3: frozen throne for pc at the moment. I usually play footmen frenzy, anybody else here at srk play? Maybe we can hook up a game of footmen frenzy.
I got Advance Wars: Dual Strike. I never played any of the other Advance Wars, but this one has made a good impression with me. I like it.
So far, I like Colin, Jake, Eagle, and Max the best for actual abilities, but Rachel and Sami are really cute, and Rachel has good skills too.
And Combat Mode took some getting used to, but I’m enjoying it now that I know how to use the units properly. My only complaint really is that, IMO, this mode would be better if you could switch units somehow, instead of having to die to use a new type. It would add to the strategy, IMO.
Since I stopped playing Mega Man X: Command Mission just after I started it and I wanted to play another RPG, I thought I’d pick it up again. I still haven’t found Axl or Zero but I do have a new ally named Spider but he may as well be called Mr. Magic from the way he looks. But he has this awesome technique in Hyper Mode called Jokester. He turns into a shade and cannot be harmed by physical attacks. that was a huge help against this boss named Jango who must have had like 4000 HP because even after a few 900 HP damaging attacks, he still didn’t die. I offed him just in time because I was all out of Sub-Tank energy.
On the Mario Kart: Double Dash!! front, I FINALLY scored a gold tropy in the Flower Cup Circuit. I was so sick and tired of all those morons on the track attacking me!! I was read to slam my GC controller down and I rarely feel that irked in a Mario Kart game. The team I used was Luigi & Koopa Troopa on Mario’s kart. I don’t know if I’m ready for the Star Cup just yet.
Been playing games on my DC mostly. Ikaruga, Sega Tennis 2K2, Power Stone 2 and Grandia 2.
Also I was thinking about picking up a few games for my PS2. I’ve heard about Diseaga(sp?) but aren’t there like 3 sequels/prequels for this game? La Pucelle or something like that? Made by Nippon Ichi?
I know that these games are similar to FFT so yeah. Any thoughts?
Darkstalkers Chronicle: The Chaos Tower on my PSP. Shame this game takes a long time to load.
If there is a canidate for a premium game download on Memory Stick for the PSP, this game is it. Heck if Capcom offers HDD instals for it’s Japanese games, I wonder if it would be cool with Sony to offer a Memory stick partial instal like the PS2 Darkstalkers Collection?
Otherwise, great game. Shame the controlls stink horibly.
I’ve been playing God of War, just got done playing it for about 4 hours straight. All I can say is that this is without a doubt one of the best 3D action/platformer games I’ve ever played. It is right up there with Ninja Gaiden in terms of quality, graphics, music, and gameplay.
The animation, the score, the sound effects, the setting, it’s all fucking amazing. There are so many subtle details, like smashing a dead tree in the background makes the branches sway, the way Kratos animates, reflections, in the water, things like that make a big difference, IMO.
I also very much dig the Greek mythology setting.
On a side note, it would be awesome if they did a sequel/follow-up using the same graphics engine/gamplay, but put the game in an Egyptian mythological setting instead of greek. That would be much cool. :tup:
DDRMax2 is just sooooooo much fun. It totally owns my soul. I’ve finally managed to finish a few songs with a full dance meter and get AA rankings. I’m gonna see if I can find a copy of the first DDRMax.
GTA: SA on the other hand is REALLY making me mad. I’m sick and tired of helping that geek Zero. If I wanted to take some fools out, I wouldn’t use a dumb remote controlled air plane. I’d hop on a motorcylce or in some fast car and mow the fools down. But Rockstar/Take Two decided it’d be better to control a plane with sucktacular controls. I’m read to put the cheats in and let the good tims roll.
i cant find anything, i looked at downloads and didnt see any kof. everything is spanish :sad:
i really like kof2k3 so far over 2k2, but i feel discouraged because of the whole duolon situation everyone mentions… why exactly is he borked? the team combos are so fun to do too. :sad:
So I’m on a pretty difficult mission on Advance Wars. In fact, it’s the first that I didn’t clear on the first try.
You’re supposed to use artillery from a blue base to bombard a green base’s tanks while they drive out of some mountains, in order to buy your red base time to produce enough units to go agaainst this one supertank that the green base has. Supposedly, the green base is actually potential allies, but they want you to prove your strength to them before they join your forces.
It’s so hard though because one of the green COs adds defense vs. artillery to all of his men, and his Power Gauge charges faster based on how many Com Towers he controls, and when active his special power adds so much defense that his army basically becomes immune to damage for one turn.
Remy: Have you been taking advantage of the Skills? Not CO Powers, but skills like “Direct fire +8%” etc… I didn’t bother reading how to play the game, so I ignored all of the tutorial crap (I’ve played the others) and didn’t know about the skills until I was almost done. Makes playing the war rooms worthwhile if you’re stuck. You can build up promotions and get better skills.
