oh yes…the Chojin returns…in

Phantasy Star Online…ADVENTURES!
Well, more of the same for the FOmar Chojin. He took a sidequest to retrieve some cake for some random woman on Pioneer 2. Chojin didn’t really care about the client, he just wanted more experience points from the increased number of monsters on the quests. At Caves 3, there it was…the Cake Sisters’ Shop. After purchasing the cake, the Chojin couldn’t help but wonder what was wrong with those crazy bitches…to set up their shop in Caves 3? This isn’t exactly the safest place on Ragol to set up your business, especially when there’s Megid-spitting Ob Lillies, Vulmers, Melqueeks, Nano Dragons, Slimes, etc. all over the place.

Later, the Chojin took another job. The client was some fat broad who wanted to work off the extra pounds with a trek through Caves. “Interesting…”, the Chojin thought…this was a female human force that was on a higher level that he was…yet her skills as a Force were pathetic. At least she was better than that fat piece of crap Ranger by the name of Mome.
She ended up losing the weight, and Chojin got the experience he was looking for. Money wasn’t an issue anymore, as he had at least 800,000 in the bank at all times, and the random armors he finds on Ragol always fetch a good price in the shops.

Chojin went back to the Mines for more experience points…and finally ascended again; this time, to level 138.

Very much so. In fact, MMX is ranked as having one of the best sound tracks in all of gaming in my book. :smiley:

…and if you think THAT is something, then you must hear the remixes. Again, the Armored Armadillo is the best one. If you need a description to picture how awesome it is, imagine this:

  • the first/main part of the song done with a strong saxophone, then the secondary part done with what sounds like a heavy bass fiddle/guitar - I’ve played this thing at least 100 times since I’ve gotten it.

Don’t even get me started on “Take back the tower” Boomer Kuwanger remix.

I think that site that had them switched servers, so they haven’t put them back up yet, but I’m willing to share. :slight_smile:

Onimusha 3 is fuckin tight as hell.

oh yes…the Chojin returns…in

That Mome fool is an annoying bastard…he sucks ass, and yet they expect you to take on De Rol Le with him, and keep him alive? Hell no.

Speaking of Ultimate Caves, my newest character Ark just made his first run through there. The fricking Vulmers are fast as hell and annoying, but no match for my Red Saber +90 w/30% on A-Beast. :evil: Lame treasure though, in the forest I got an Ancient Saber and other various goodies.

Memories man.

I’ve been tearing up Megaman X since I was 12 years old.

One moment I’ll never forget was back in 1995. I took my SNES and Megaman X2, which was my birthday present that year, to the Youth Center and flawlessly beat the game, Shoryuken and everything, and had a audience, thanks to the monstrous high projection television set in the lounge room.

The time is now. The day has finally arrived. I have both versions of the Mega Man Anniversary Collection.

Impressions with the GC version- The interface is VERY nice. You control a MM8 sprite MM and guide hime to doors that lead to MM1-8, Options and other stuff. Auto-Save rocks Every time you beat a level it saves your game. Those beams from Elec Man’s stage ain’t got JACK on me! (OK so I took a few hits and was nervous when I had to climb the double door chamber to get to him because I didn’t want to get hit) Elec Man went down in two hits thanks to Cut Man’s weapon. Oh yeah. You can play MM1-8 on either Easy or Normal. Easy makes things a bit by removing some enemies in some scenes like the first three floor thingys at the start of Elec Man’s stage. Of course even on Easy the enmies still take cheap shots at you. Punks.:bluu:

One thing you may have trouble adjusting to as I’m sure many of you have already heard are the controls. Remember how on the old NES games B was your shot button and A was fire? That has been switched around and it can make things irritating at first. I had a bit of struggle defeating Cut Man because of it but by the time I reached Elec Man I was getting the hang of things. My advice is to anyone that owns only a 'Cube is to not let this setup scare you away from purchasing this great anthology. Given time, you will adjust. Just make sure you’re used to it by the time you tackle Guts Man’s stage…

YEAH!! Finally beat Critical mode in Onimusha 3 to get the black vest! :cool: Every hit is critical on someone who isn’t a boss and although it takes your life away you always get a yellow spirit when you destroy someone. And even though you can’t critical a boss directly, you can bounce off of a plain enemy and back to the boss. AWESOME!!!

This has been THE INVINCIBLE SWORDSMAN saying:

Now I’m gonna try to get it in Hard mode…

The Gotcha Force Chronicles

I’m actually on my third play-through of the game, and thus the story begins. After carving his legend into the universe, Neo G Red, aka Jack Bauer, decides to take a well-deserved break and not kick ass until necessary. Since then, a newcomer has arrived, hoping to carve his legend as well. The Flame Ninja, who I call “Meltdown” quickly takes care of the small fry with little trouble. With his confidence swelling, Meltdown feels it is time for something a little more difficult, so he decides to challenge the almighty Sho and his powerful Garuda. At home, Jack Bauer watches Meltdown’s performance and reminisces somewhat, saying to himself that he was like Meltdown when he was busy carving his destiny. As Meltdown goes into battle, Jack wonders if this fiery kid has what it takes to defeat Sho. This could be the make or break battle for Meltdown.

YES!! YES!!! OHHHHHHHHHHH YEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!

Just beat MM2 on Mega Man Anniversary Collection. Now I’m moving on to MM3. Right now I’m grooving to the title screen music. I just peed my pants over it. goes to changes undies

Playing some Onimusha 3 right now since StarTropics has defeated me :mad:
I was on the last level, I beat 2 bosses, died on the last boss, and they made me START AT THE VERY BEGINNING. So I was just like pssh fuck this.
Anyone heard about the new patch for Ninja Gaiden on Xdude? That looks sick, new weapons, camera, enemies, the whole 9. Just another reason to get Xbox Live :cool:

i just unlocked all the hidden characters for samurai warriors

EverQuest is starting to kick ass again. The new Omens Of War expansion is gonna raise the level cap, let guilds share tribute points, and thank god, ADD NEW EPICS(I dont know who they waited till now to do that, the current epics suck balls). Also, they’re finally making a PvP test server(cause it really sucks to wait for the changes to the game manually).

Anyone here play any EQ?

After gaining possesion of Einhander again, I’ve proceeded to do something I should’ve done years ago: Earn the fabled Red Einhander ship by beating hard difficulty. Wish me luck.

-Starhammer-

I just got finished with Advance Wars 2 several weeks ago(Which is better than part 1 IMO) and it’s easily the best GBA game out there. Too bad I can’t play this online or anything…stupid Nintendo.

I primarly play with Eagle, Andy, and Kanbei by the way…

I’ve been playing ** Valkyrie Profile** for the past two weeks, and it’s easily one of my top three rpg’s of all time. Combat is fun and not boring in the least, the game is really challenging on Hard mode, and so far the story isn’t that bad(I’m on chapter 8 right now). Has anyone else played this???

Played and beaten it. Fun game.

OH OH, you said Einhander. I have the OST to this one also.

The Spider (tunnel theme) and the first boss themes (Shudder) own (especially when you let the first boss theme get to the lyrics):

Check it out / I’m mr. lyrical ??? and ??? fast when I’m in front of the microphone / Steadfast ??? ??? the nitty-gritty used to be the finest of the fittest / Ah yeah, and yo, I ain’t with it / You bailed to the left when I made the top ten / Stop lookin’ ??? and ??? to the mike and / Knowledge is the key to be a sensible black man /Rhythm of the street is the ways of a dark man / Devilish attitude, you really make me move / Friday the 13th, you’re all up to it / You’re Jason ??? and Freddy all combined / The name of the ??? is ??? ??? / To me / there’s only one reignin’ body, and ??? ??? ??? / And singin’ my song I wanna rock about the baby / Won’t be long until you’re pushin’ up daisies

I just beat MM1 on the PS2 MMAC. I actually made Wily my dog Remixed music owns if it is from MM2: The Fighters. I was so happy to beat MM1 because for me it was the hardest of the NES MM games. Of course compared to Mega Man & Bas, MM1 is a stroll through Wood Man’s stage without all those Hot Dogs shooting at you.

PSO:The Legend Continues!!
Chojin: Path to Final Solutions------

As the magical flames dissipated, the Chojin appeared amidst the bodies of countless native creatures of Ragol. It was another long day of death, and he had ascended yet again, to level 140. Back on the ship, Chojin continued to upgrade his new, better Holy Ray with some grinders he found within the forest area.

There was a Pal Rappy on this last trip to the Ultimate Forest, and it was the first time Chojin saw such a creature. Of course, it didn’t drop anything worthwile, and ran away just like the rest of those annoying little bird creatures. The Chojin remained steady on his path.


Elsewhere on the ship, JACK.BAUER was suiting up to head down to the Mines, with top secret orders…

I just started playing Psi-Ops tonight. so far all I’ve got is telekinesis (just finished training), and I can already tell its gonna be nuts.
