Switching between the ever amazing Dragon Quest VIII and Rondo of Swords on the DS. Rondo of Swords is basically Fire Emblem, if the developers were the devilish dicks responsible for Trauma Center.

In other words it's a sink or swim game of stupid difficulty and annoyance.

I hate it.

also played some Peggle

Craig likes the POS that was Dragon Quest VIII?!?!

There's not enough Cor Blimey in the world that could have saved it

I've had no problems with it, besides all non-Yangus VA work. What's so bad about it? I'm genuinely curious, as until now Tricia's mom (who has a 600 hour gamesave) has been hyping and telling me how great and amazing it is... it's... confusing... to hear someone call it out.

Just bought Wii Fit, so i'll try it out this afternoon.

I don't even need it! O_o

This is also the one and only game I will EVER buy at my parents' suggestion. >_>

Moving right along thru Zelda: Wind Waker. I really liked that tag-team dungeon with Medli; it reminded me so much of Majora's mask.

Uh oh. The Yuku Time-Space anomaly appears to have made its way here, as well. o.o

I hope this doesn't mean there's a parasitic alien virus buried deep within Yuku code.

getting my
final achievement (completing the monster record) in Blue Dragon.

Have fun with that. So, does that mean you have beaten the King Poo and the Gold Mecha Robo; also, I wonder, did you get the Shame achievement,s i.e., the"Get Back attack 50 times" and "Flee 50 times" achievements. Anyway, I too am going for my last achievements, I have all but two of my shadow classes maxed out for each character, have all but Jiro and Zola to Lvl 99 (Zola is Lvl 97 and Jiro in the mid 90s), and then I need to get the last 2 items at the end of the game to get the all items achievement and then I'm done; I should get them done tonight.

After I get all the achievements, I'll finally go onto Beyond Good and Evil, yes, I've not played it yet so sue me.

Played a small bit of Crisis Core today. Was really fun for what I got to play.

I actually finished Crisis Core a few weeks ago. Really good game, and my first Final Fantasy game also.
Well I've been trying to finish Ninja Gainden 2, but it keeps freezing up on me right before the last boss, and the disc has only one tiny scratch! I'll be working on getting that replaced and I'll be hooking up the DC and playing Shenmue again to waste some time.

Played some Gears of War with my cousin today, with a little bit of NCAA Football 09. Also continued with my new game of Final Fantasy XII. Haven't had any new games for awhile, so gets kinda boring for me awhile awhile but still fun while it lasts.

Also SBCG4AP here. If you are a fan of the H*R site, as in check it every week for a new sbemail, then the game is definitely worth it. Yeah, it's a little on the short side (I completed it in 6-7 hours, and that's with getting 100%). I enjoyed it, but I also have fond memories of other PnC games, like Space Quest... ahh now there was a game series!

Aside from SBCG4AP, a lot of Brawl, and yes, still playing Wii Fit.

Just started Majora's Mask for the first time, now we have found Tricia's copy of it. Just outside of the mountain temple at the mo and enjoying it very much. It's like the gorgeous illegitimate child of OoT and Shenmue. <3

Popped in LoTR The Two Towers. Loved this game when it came out, but couldn't really get into today. Just trying to get perfects on most of the levels.

It's on the short side (which makes sense due to it's monthly upload and all). I finished mine's in near three hours, but it's indeed, worth the purchase. The characters and story are pure Homestar good and the graphics are so flawlessly in-tune with it's web animation counterpart. Controlling Strong Bad is generally good for the most part, but at times he doesn't tend to go where I want him to, though it's nothing damaging or overall annoying. There are some small, but optional collectionable items, nothing too great; most are secret outfits and instruction manuals for Snake Boxer 5 (though it gives you a secret code), among others. I believe the real mini-game treat is picking various option to make the funniest (and most violent) Teen Girl Squad comic.

Homestar Runner fans will definitely get a kick out of this.

Fond memories. I don't care if I get stoned, tarred, and feathered, Majora's Mask is still my current favorite Zelda and I consider it higher then Ocarina of Time, if not because of the large focus on various character and the whimsical nature of it. *dodges rocks*

Ahhh so you got it too snappysm? Cool, cool. So it is a rather large fanservice game, huh? That's cool. I'm not really into H*R a bunch[at all really lol] so I may not pick this one up, for awhile atleast. As for my gaming...still brawling. Some Street Fighter II[New Challengers] too.

Right now I'm in the midst of playing Beyond Good and Evil, and it is awesome!!! I'm in the Slaughterhouse area now and the only thing that really has gotten on my nerves was actually trying to get into that area since you had to go by boat and I'm terrible with vehicles in video games.

Just now finished playing BG&E about 30 minutes ago, and man, was the entire game awesome!!!!! I'm so glad I checked into it after hearing about the sequel; the final boss was fairly hard though! About the only complaints I have about the game is that it was too short and that I thought the ending should have some dialouge in it though it still turned out to be pretty awesome like the rest of the game!!^_^

I was planning on playing Mass Effect after this, but I had no ideal BG&E would be this short and I won't have the money to get ME until I get paid on Thursday. Therefore I don't know what really to play until Thursday; I might start Billy Hatcher or catch up on some DS games I need to play like Partners in Time and NSMB.

I haven't been playing too much, basically just Meteos and AC:WW. It seems like I haven't really finished up any games this summer, which is what I wanted to do =/ I also just picked up a ds lite for ~50 dollars on ebay, and I'm going to do a case swap on it, so that'll be fun, unless I screw it up =D

Mostly it's been Soul Calibur IV, but on the Wii front I've been immersed in NiGHTS, as well as Brawl.

Although, I popped in Marvel vs Capcom & Soul Calibur I for the Dreamcast, and I've been lovin' it.

SFA 3 Max. *cries* I'm jealous. I've yet to breach the Alpha series yet. That Anthology is looking mighty good right about now. But I played some Grid on my roomie's 360, and this Pac-Man championship edition thing[totally rocked]. Boom, Boom Rocket as well. But yea...still some Sonic Rush. Also Madden 09 and NCAA 09.

Finally getting some decent play time in on Halo 3... Since I am now car-less, I've been relying on others to get me to work. My buddy who also works for my uncle is letting me stay at his apartment and then we carpool to work. And he has a 360

Making some progress in FFIV, although not as much as I thought I would. Just found the black chocobo and am now leveling up my party.

Gave up on Okami... Loved the graphics, the story was interesting... I just don't have the time to play it =|

I've just played Force Unleashed. Wow, I never thought I would play a game that handles telekinesis worse than Sonic 2k6.

Its kinda fun though.

Other than that though Soul Calibur IV. Its awesome.

Just completed Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. Personally, I liked the story of Path of Radiance better, although it was nice to see much of PoR's little loose ends finally resolved. The tower marathon at the end of part four nearly made my eyes roll out of my head from frustration, though, as any good FE endgame reasonably ought to do.

I guess the next up on my list is Golden Sun 2 and breaking my bad Brawl habits to get back into Melee.

Awww, man. Maybe it's because I'm a Radiance era FE fanboy, but Radiant Dawn's story was so darn amazing to me. I loved the clashing faction portions of chapter 3 and the conclusion, especially with the game + stuff, was amazing.

I never saw any of that stuff coming and it was just pure and absoloute win for me. But I'm glad you liked it at least.

Oh, don't get me wrong. I liked Radiant Dawn's story very much; the idea of controlling multiple factions was novel storytelling for a video game of its kind. It's simply that I loved Path of Radiance more (Soren's complete lack of altruism is utterly delightful). Ike had more personality and wasn't just an overpowered gorilla rampaging across maps. Now Radiant Dawn was a game I enjoyed very much, and it did great things. I'd genuinely like to see a third and final instalment in the Radiance series, however unlikely that is since once you've crushed the Goddess of Order, there's nowhere else really to go.

;_; Fire Emblem DS = do want.

Agreed on all points, good sir. Especially DS.

And Soren was my absoloute favorite character ever in a videogame at least. I'd give a lot to see another instalment with him in it, but the only way that would be possible is a prequel, given that Ike and Soren/Ranulf sailed away from Middle Earth.
