i jumped on the pokétrain and got it the first day it was out over here (yesterday). I've spent waaaay too much time with the pokewalker.
My copy of SoulSilver arrived yesterday, and it is tempting to play it instead of getting work done for my college classes.
SUBMIT, MEWTAMER, YOU KNOW YOU WANT IT
Wow, just wow at the final boss of FFXIII.
Just got FFXIII back from my buddy, who gave up on it after Chapter 4... Good bye, spring break.
I have to agree with Marky, the first day I had HG, I spent more time with the Pokewalker than the game itself. I caught a Dratini with it yesterday so I was happy
Is it me or is grass type REALLY useless at the beginning of this game? I mean, this may explain why I never picked Chikorita when I was younger but... grass is not very effective against other grass or bug (the TWO most common types of Pokémon you find!) and also not very effective against poison, making Team Rocket a lot harder than they should be (as well as the first two gyms).
This is why that Nidoran I caught with the Pokéwalker has pretty much taken over to be my main Pokémon.
But seriously, this game is waaaay more than a remake and becomes more and more obvious that is is greatly enhanced the further you get into it!
Really loving Mass Effect 2. Tempted to do a general discussion thread on it. Mordin is my new favourite character.
Man, second form of the final boss in FFXIII is extra weak. Makes up for that blatantly cheating first form.
Really? I had more problems with the second form then I did the first. Well, not so much that it was difficult but tedious and time consuming. I managed to 5 star the first form but 0 star the second. Of course the last form is a piece of cake. Army of One <3
Ummm...oh yea. I forgot I wasn't talking about the first of the three fights, lol. Yea the very first fight is easy. Second is just what you thought, tedious. I would have beat him the first time if it wasn't for random death on my leader when I nearly had him dead. Thanks a lot Squenix.
I'm still annoyed I didn't five star the last form. I want the Lightning theme...<3
Now it's off to putting money aside to buy a DS and...HG.
Looks like my next task in SoulSilver is to premier ball Lugia with nothing but a Level-60 Typhlosion and Level-36 Gyarados to help weaken it.
Just got SoulSilver. As I said, I played the hell out of Silver for the GBC, so naturally this thing is wall-to-wall nostalgia for me.
The rival spent the entire game named "???" during my first playthrough as a kid (The game was too subtle for me, I guess. The kid said his name was ???. The cop asks me what his name was. Why wouldn't I reply, "???"?), so, in memory of that, I named him Quentin, like 'Question Mark'.
I picked Totodile, and named him Jake, just like last time. The only other party member I remember the name of was my Hoothoot named Percy, so I'll have to catch one of those soon.
Finally, I've been fooling about with the Pokewalker. Guess what, more nostalgia! From Chao Adventure (SA1/2), no less.
Onboard the USG Ishimura, playing through Dead Space.
*becomes a sack of paranoia while playing*
I started playing 358/2 Days the other day and played until I got to day 51 and then I stopped and started to play Re:Chain of Memories. Having fun with it for the most part, though the bosses can be a pain; I'm at the point where very few regular enemies can break my cards. I'm on floor 7 with Altantica.
Darksiders- just beat Straga after doing all those damn light reflecting puzzles in the Black Throne. And now am going to search for the missing pieces of the Armageddon Blade to finally fight the Destroyer.
I think I made it to Chapter 4 of FFXIII. Definitely different from what I expect an RPG to act like... not too sure I like it. We'll see how the next few chapters go, and if I'll stick with it to the end.
In other news, I just got to Ice Road in HG!
Oh and if you have a PS3 and don't own Grandia, BUY IT ON PS STORE NOW. Game is awesome.
Ive owned Grandia since... God what.. 97? Never left my house. Ever. Never selling it. Too damn awesome of a game.
Oh, hai Rondo of Blood. Didn't see you there on the Wii with your original soundtrack. Well, let's see what all the fuss was about.
HYDROSTORM!HYDROSTORM!HYDROSTORM!HYDROSTORM!HYDROSTORM!
Recently I have been mostly playing...Robot Unicorn Attack! :3
Hah, the commercial for that game had me rolling for a good few minutes.
Still on HG. Forgot I had to download Seperate Ways (RE5 addon)..but uhh how much does it cost? 10 bux right? Right?
Then I turned on my 360 and saw Soul Calibur 4 was in there.
Then I woke up this morning to an overturned bottle of rum and Soul Calibur with all characters unlocked. Don't remember this AT ALL.!
Playing Tekken 6 but I've been interested on trying out a Castlevania game. I've never played one but I want to give one a shot and see if I like it. I may have to buy Symphony of the Night off PSN. Hopefully it'll be good.
^Oh it will be. Loved me some SOTN back in the day. Still holds up too.
Darksiders- finally beat this game after not having time to play it duZering the week. Pretty solid title. Its a solid title and if your a fan of Zelda type puzzles and collecting, you'll mostlikely enjoy it as well. Now on to start up my new copy of God of War CoO for the psp. Might play something else like Dante's Inferno before I play God of War 3 (I want to play DI first because I know its the inferior game and don't want to play it after GoW3 and be disappointed because of Kratos' brilliance.) Or I might finally get to playing Final Fantasy XIII which I've been planning for awhile. But not sure I'll have the time to give to an rpg right now, so DI is looking like the choice and I might be able to get a copy for cheap online.

xD! Well i've been playing a buttload of Blazblue the past two days. Man..this game. It's just...SO. GOOD> Seriousy.
Up to the Elite 4 in SoulSilver.
Current team:
Typhlosion
Incinerates the E4 except for Karen's Houndoom(damn fire immunity). Gets ass handed to by Lance.
Level 84 and climbing.
Amulet Coin
- Flamethrower
- Eruption
- Blast Burn
Lugia
Kills the above mentioned Houndoom. Also kills Bruno's Onix to conserve Typhlosion's limited firepower.
Level 47
-Rain Dance
-Hydro Pump
-Aeroblast
Gyarados
Kills Karen's Murkrow to conserve Typhlosion's limited firepower. Could kill Lance's hacked Dragonite trio if not for low speed.
Level 39
Quick Claw that never activates when I need it.
-Ice Fan
-Whirlpool
-Surf
-Waterfall
Played some Mass Effect 2 for the hell of it. Just trying to run through it while playing mainly Renegade. Quite fun.
I'm so pathetic...I can't beat Captain K Rool's first form. I get to the last stage and then somehow trip up and land right next to him when he reappears and get smacked for my efforts, ugh.
And whoever designed the Squawks part of Animal Antics, is a freakin' sadist.
Just started God of War Chains of Olympus. Really awesome for a psp game. Only thing that sucks is the analog stick QTEs. Don't register real good and just not easy to pull off with the awkward lil thing.
I finally found a working copy of Link's Awakening and I can't bring myself to complete Turtle Rock and then the boss rush after that...
*shakes head* Mmm mmm mmmm! Virtual On: Oratorio Tangram is my baby. Zipping around as Cypher and slicing up fools, while avoiding their missles/rockets/bombs is so refreshing. The sense of speed...the sense of speed. The most fluid and dynamic fantasy robot game ive ever played. Hands down. But yea...Armored Core 5 is in the works, so you never know.
Finally got done with Riku's story on Re:CoM this morning around 2, and I had to be in at 8 lol. It was fun, and while I liked Riku's gameplay better than Sora's, I'm still glad to be over with that annoying card system!! Now, I'll be going back to finish off Days can't wait!
Just beat God of War Chains of Olympus. What a great lil game for the psp that does justice to the series. Now need to get a new game. Probably Dantes Inferno. Might have to wait though for my next paycheck to snag a copy.
Still on HG. Saw Red. Saw his Pikachu. Laughed and returned to hunting legends. TF is Moltres -.-
Oh and collecting Gym Leader numbers. They're my lifeblood for levelling right now....

Whoa whoa!? DK64?
i'm playing alien vs predator with 2 other siblings, its so much fun this way.
im playing the alien, my brother is the predator and my sister is playing the human..
we take turns and its fun, kinda connects everything. when everyone in your family has nothing better to do this is the result. we only have a bit till we finish i think we'll finish the game today.
and if anyone is wondering, i make a fine alien
No, Donkey Kong Country 2.
Recently been playing Mario Kart 64 with my siblings. It hasn't taken long for me to finish Grand Prix with 13-21 point leads over second place and rub it in their faces. They rub it in my face when they win a single race but in the end, I come out on top and they just have to watch my victory. It kind of gets boring, lol.
ah lucky tiggerkiddo,
i'm the worst gamer in my family, i want to show off so badly but i never can. i'm actually happy you're doing a good job, keep it up! show older siblings that they're not always cool
Final Fantasy 9.
I infinitely prefer it to the other overhyped ones. like 7 and 8 mostly. Zidane Tribal and crew win me over every time!
Indeed FF9 was truly one of my favorites. From Steiner to Vivi, so many great characters.
*Knuckle-bump* Heh heh, rock on...9'ers for life!
Still playing through SS. Just beat the Lake of Rage Rocket hideout.
Wittling my way through Farcry 2 and loving it.
Intending to move onto Grandia at some point.
Did anyone say FF9?? I LOVE that game...<3
Anywho...I don't ever remember Rogue Squadron being this difficult but...it is just killing me.
Tigger, You are officially awesome too...:3 Good job, lol
Splinter Cell: Conviction
I was playing Sim City 4 earlier... seems like if you have your housing too close to your industry, the housing gets polluted, but if you have it too far away the commute time is too long. I guess it's supposed to be a balancing act, but it really seems like reaching for a middle ground will give you the worst of both worlds instead of the best of both...
Mass Effect 2 for the meantime since I don't have the dough for a new game.
Playing Pokemon Soul Silver; just finished the Elite Four and heading on to Kanto. Also playing Yakuza 3; such an awesome, awesome game. <3
I have 4 badges left to earn in Kanto in HG . I'm not sure I like Misty's redesign though =|
Hopefully I'll have a chance this week to resume FFXIII. I'm on Chapter 9, and although it is nothing like I thought it would be, I'll see it through to the end.
