SOTN IS OVERRATED. Sorry but I had to say something 
Right now I’m just brushing up on my ggxx skills until I get my stick from Dreaded Fist
I know I’ve been saying I may start Prince of Persia for the longets time. Well I finally did start it. Man, this game has some sweet graphics and I’m loving the level designs. I also like the combat system. The Prince is packing all kinds of acrobatic moves and the dagger of time=mass ownage. I was like “Awwwwww YEAH!” when I rewinded time for the first time after I died. Game rocks so far but I’ve been ganged up on by enemies a few times already.
Well, Thunderstorm knocked out power last night…so I played some more Super Mario 3 on the GBAsp…
I got a PERFECT on every world now, and everything is much better. Now the stage icons on the world map are black and gold, rather than black/blue with an “M”. I can still replay all stages, but the cool thing now is that all toad houses, mini-fortresses, and hammer bros. are back! I could just keep going to a Toad House over and over…it never disappears now! So of course I have at least 4 Hammer Bros. suits on me now!:eek: That 1 Toad House in the middle of World 6 gave me a HB suit, so I just kept going there. My item inventory is full at the moment, so I have to use up some of the more useless things to make room for more Hammer Bros. and Tanooki Suits. I haven’t seen whether or not I can replay airships…
oh yeah…Coin Ships are back too.
Current # lives = 208!
Current score = 2.8 million something.
Whoah, I was unemployed back then. Future Million is all about dat Devil May Cry 4! WOOOOOOOOOOOO!
I started LaPucelle Tactics and I’m hooked. It’s like the yin to Disgaea’s Yang. I never got through Disgaea though, I got sidetracked by FFT:Advance cause I bought them at the same time, and now I let my friend borrow it cause he has nothing to do. LaPucelle actually came out first anyway, so I guess I could say I’m going to play them in order.
The voices are entertaining. Cept the one guy Croix mumbles sometimes.
I got 2/3’s through Onimusha 3, that game is pretty good, but why can’t you jump ?
I’m in the fire cavern in Ninja Gaiden, but I decided to take a break. I’m right at the big dragon, but the game is just so stupid and frustraiting it’s not fun. It still makes every other game this side of DMC look and feel shitty though.
I’m thinking of getting the freeloader thing and that Naruto game.
Is not 
Anyway, I’m currently playing KOF 2002 for the PS2 (import). Not bad, considering I was kinda turned off by the rehash-ey feeling and boring atmosphere of the arcade version. Having actually played in challenges on console has considerably increased my respect for this game.
Well, I got 8 Hammer Bros. suits now…and just beat Bowser with hammers. I forgot to keep a count on how many hammers it takes to kill him though…
actually getting to him with my HB suit intact was a bitch though! Especially the last section where there’s a room with just lava and those donut things to stand on, while he’s breating fire from off screen! You can’t float down with HB suit like the Tanooki suit, so the margin for error there is incredibly slim. The first time I made it, I hit with 2 hammers, and got caught by one of Bowsers flame projectiles. Needless to say…I was pissed:lol: It was the 2nd time I made it in there…I finally got him…nothing but hammers.
217 lives now…3,060,200 points.
*sidenote—Hammer Bros. suit combined with Kuribo’s Shoe =:eek:
I’m back on world 1-5 right now…apparently Hammer Mario can’t slide?!?
I hold down on the hill, and he just crouches
Damn. Castlevania 4 wasn’t hard to me and I beat it going straight through.
Hey, cut it some slack, man. I thought it was great!
I just finished Onimusha 3. But I doubt I’m going to replay it on hard (to open ISSEN mode) or finish the shooting mini-game (can’t pass stage five, close). The game was pretty cool though. I’d say it’s a toss up between 3 and 2 for best in the series (I liked 2’s story more, the combos and trading/branching partners).
I plan to start playing FFX-2 and Silent Hill 3.
And Super Castlevania IV was probably the easiest Vania I played, next to SOTN and Simon’s Quest (the hardest would be 1 and 3 ).
Seeing as there’s some pretty hardcore gamers here, does anyone plan on trying out for the EGM Review Crew Survivor?
And how many games have some of you finished? I’ve probably completed over 400 (not sure). Back when I was a pup (now 27), I used to play video games alot but things have slowed down immensley (where I might beat a game every two months).
I’m currently playing MX:Unleashed (Motocross game) 'Tis fun
MUA HA HA HA HA HAAAAAAAA!!! I’ve done it! I’ve beaten Mario & Luigi!! Man, that game was great but the ending was kind short. SPOILERS after beating Bowletta from the inside of her stomach, I had 3 dumb minutes to escape because the castle was rigged with explosives. I was like “Oh you have got to be frickin’ kiddin’ me!” Thankfully getting out was easy but I was afraid I wasn’t going to make it in time. END SPOILERS
Those cheap enemies in Prince of Persia are getting on my nerves! They surround you and take cheap shots at you! Arrrrggggghhhhhh!!! That’s the only gripe I have with the game. That and my patience for getting through some rooms in the palace makes me easily frustrated.
Got a question for everyone? Have you ever played a bunch of games at once? I’ve been thinking about tackling about 5 games all at the same time but its a big gaming load to carry. That and it makes cutting the amout of games I have to work on even more of a hassle. (Sigh)
you mean you dont play at least 3-4 games at once? jeezus
well, then again youre complaining about PoP being hard… its really easy… just wall jump stab, or freeze - stab and its ggpo
CV4 wasnt hard, CV2 was wierd and I never got far into it… seemed like it would be tough to get the good endings… SOTN isnt overrated, CV4 is… goddamn that game sucks compared to Dracula X… (and the magicengine version is waaayy sweeter)
and my total amount of games beaten has to be closer to a thousand… I religiously play shit… barely 20 now though…
Who here has played all those good adventure games by sierra and lucasfilm back in the golden age of pc gaming?
I haven’t been here in a few days.
I beat Double Dragon for the GBA this weekend.
I love the Agent Smith-based enemies. That game needed two-player GB-Player support so bad, instead of needing two GBA’s and two copies of the game…
Looking forward to River City Ransom EX?
I’m playing through Final Fantasy Tactics (PS1) and Sonic Advance 3. I’m taking a short break from Megaman Zero 2. It’s not that I can’t advance (no pun intended) in MMZ2, but I keep getting B or lower in the stage I’m stuck on, and I won’t settle for less than A.
Just started Fire Emblem on friday. This game is too fun. It could easily become my favorite RPG.
I hate those Agent Smith guys - I never fail to lose at least 2/3 lives on the beginning of the truck stage. I’m working on fixing that little problem. I still manage to beat the game with at least 2 credits remaining, so I am getting better at it.
I never played RCR back when, but I am hearing good things about the new game. Will try it out later.
I have just been reunited with one of my favorite games ever: Virtua Fighter 4: Evolution. The game was just sitting in a box with all the other games I need to play and I felt like playing it again. Withint a short amount of time I was kicking human AI tail in Quest Mode with Pai. Man is she awesome. Forget Soul Calibur II. VF4: Evo is the best 3D fighter ever made.
I just bought the Sonic and MegaMan collections, as well as the GC versions of Sonic Adventure. SADX is incredible, boasting improved graphics and a new game mode (haven’t unlocked it yet, though), as well as the OG Sonic games from Game Gear as bonus unlockables! SA2 is basically the same as DC, but with some bug fixes and extra playable characters in multiplayer.
As for the OG gaming collections, I like them a lot. The only thing that bothers me is that some of the games have to be unlocked, and I wish that they were all available from the start.
I’ll post some updates as I play and unlock.
EDIT: Oh, one question. On SADX, did they play with the game speed? I played through Chaos 0, Emerald Coast, and Egg Hornet as Sonic, and the game felt a little sluggish compared to the Dreamcast version.
Mega Man Collection? I thought that one wasn’t coming out until June 22. Unless of course you imported yours. Man, I can’t wait to get that. I’m getting both the PS2 and GC ver. Too bad Capcom had to delay the GBA version until fall. Morons.:bluu:
Please tell me you’re not talking about SNES version…that sucks ass off CV4. The only things better is that the bosses are more difficult, item crash, and well…Richter has pants. :lol: That’s it. CV4 was the better game, IMO.
But SOTN still owns all.
