Games I've Played Recently

Post by Ibun »

<span style='color:purple'>Legend of Zelda: The Four Swords</span> (9/10, Contrary to my first impression it's easy to control four Links.)
<span style='color:gray'>Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising</span> (9.5/10, After FFT this is the best and most fun tactical game.)*
<span style='color:gray'>Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga</span> (6/10, The huge list of maneuvers to pull of really slow down the pace of the game)*
<span style='color:green'>The X-Box</span> (5/10, I really enjoyed playing Madden; but that's totally unrelated. The controller is too cumbersome for me.)
<span style='color:purple'>Capcom vs SNK 2</span> (4/10, Maybe it's because it was on the Gamecube, but this is the worst fighting game I've ever played)
<span style='color:blue'>Madden 2005</span> (9/10, It's Madden '05. Not as good as '04, but the new features (Like create-a-fan) are cool.)

*= I own the game.
<span style='color:green'>X-BOX</span>
<span style='color:blue'>PLAYSTATION 2</span>
<span style='color:purple'>GAMECUBE</span>
<span style='color:gray'>GAMEBOY ADVANCE</span>

X-Box has its ups and downs. I dont own one, but I've played multiple times.

PROS:
Personal Music to the harddrive.
Rent a game, keep the game. :D (you can download a program)
Emulation from old systems
Pretty good graphics.
Halo.

CONS:
Its freaking huge.
The controllers are freaking huge, unless you feel like buying smaller ones.
I could pop in my game, go to california and back and my game still wouldnt be loaded.
Viruses.
You have to buy a speshul remote to watch DVD's *sad*

Ok, well basically I've been playing...

Pokemon Blue
Pokemon Red
Pokemon Yellow
Pokemon Gold
Pokemon Crystal
Pokemon Silver
Pokemon Ruby
Pokemon Sapphire
Pokemon Colloseum
Monster Rancher 4

eh heh, I'm still obsessed... There aren't any Pokemon, Monster Rancher, Harvest Moon or Sonic the Hedgehog games for X-box, so who needs it?
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

Recently, I finally rented Mario Kart Double Dash, and was pleasantly surprised. I enjoyed it immensely, despite earlier reservations I had about it.

Unfortunately, after returning it, the rental store insisted that I returned an empty box. Which I most certainly did not, thus resulting in me being confused, horrified, and slightly hungry. Fortunately, I have received no further threatening calls, nor any hitmen out for my blood. Hopefully, they have forgotten about me.

Also, I was playing some of the classic Sonic games the other day with my sibling. Who repeatedly yelled at me for leaving her behind, as she was Tails, and I was Super-Sonic. You ever try to play Tails and follow Super? Darn near impossible.
But very humorous for whoever is not Tails. Which was me.
And it was good.

Also, battleon.com is awesome. A truly superb flash game. I've been playing it for a while, myself.

Gee, I'm long-winded tonight.

Super Sonic is a blast to play as. Well, as long as you don't have to make any percision jumps whatsoever.

I don't have an X-Box but the main reason is that there are hardly any exclusive games I want to play on it. As for what I've been playing lately: Alundra 2 (decent Zelda clone with a few puzzles that could drive you insane), Advance Wars 2 (Lots of fun and strategy), and Boktai (gimicky but cool).

Okay...

Sonic Adventure 2 battle-I still need 23 more emblems :P
Burnout 2-It was okay, but if you place 1st on all 30 crash zones, all you get is a cheat that makes your car slighty thinner! WTF?
Golden Sun 2-DEFENTILY an awesome RPG. It's for the GBA. Go buy it! :P
h! h! h!<br>

Lets see for me.


Dynasty Warriors 2
The DBZ 2 game for PS2
Ruby
Some FFX-2



I really need to finish Golded Sun Book 2: The Lost Age sometime. Have one Dijin to find on the world and the one in the Mars Lighthouse so I can get the last summoning and then finish the Lighthouse. Problem is I just got Leaf Green and planing on getting a Yu-Gi-Oh! game soon and Buu's Furry once it comes out.
