Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones.
Yes, that's it. And now for a Josiah style review. Sorta.
Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones is quite possibly the best strategy game I have ever played. EVER. And let me tell you, I'm big on the strategy games. Freak-o time with the strategy. I guess I'm just in to anything where you have to be smart to play well. But meh.
This is my first experience with the Fire Emblem series, and now I REALLY want to get the gamecube one. Right after Dynasty Warriors, FFXII, FFX, the list goes on really.
The only thing I really, REALLY don't like about it is that your weapons break after so many uses.

Sure, it's a RP but it's still a game.
Disgaea? HA!
In the BA you can do damage in the four digits at level 5 if you're good enough, and there is no level limit at all.

Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Blue, Harvest Moon DS, and Monster Rancher Evo.
Mostly Pokemon Mystery Dungeon. After two eight hour car rides I finally finished the plot part and am free to play as Pokemon other than Silver the Mudkip. Yet I only use Silver anyway, and Russel the Sceptile still goes wherever I go. For reasons unknown I can't bring myself to leave him behind or evolve Silver...
In Harvest Moon DS I finally got Flora up to a Red heart (and it's Fall of year two... but hey, if I wanted to get married fast, I'd have gone for Muffy.) but I don't have enough stone lumber to expand my house meaning I can't get married. Well, I could always buy it from Gotz, but I'm too cheap for that.
Monster Rancher Evo I haven't had much time to play, but I rather enjoy shrining... my current monsters are the Piroro you're forced to start out with, named Shadow because it really wants to be a Heartless; the Ripper I got from the Pirates of the Caribbean DVD, named Luffy because it's all Pirate-y, and the Beaklon Dragon I got from my FMA DVD, named Al because it's got armor and... well, I got it from the FMA DVD.

"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.

Pokemon LeafGreen: Currently catching a lot of junk pokémon so I can trade over my collection from Ruby.
Xenosaga III: Beat it right after the forums went down. They'll be a review on PV tomorrow.
Final Fantasy XII: Different but fun. The story is starting to get interesting and I really like the level design (aside from a lack of save points).
Guild Wars Nightfall: Haven't gotten that far but I like the new professions and the heroes (think super henchmen) are great.

Ratchet and Clank - Recently beat the PSP version, and started the first one over again.
Guitar Hero 2 - Beat Expert mode. Going to attempt to get as many 5 starts on it and Hard mode as I can.
World of Warcraft - I have a level 62! Yay.
Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess - I think I'm at the last dungeon...
Just recently bought Metal Slug Anthology for the Wii, so I'm goign to be playing that for awhile (When I get back home that is. I'm at my mom's in Texas)

Look at this signature. Isn't it the funniest and most hilarious signature you've ever seen?
I am the artist formerly known as Matrix Kirby.

Final Fantasy XII: Nearly done. Still have to: finish the optional dungeon I'm in, kill whatever rare monsters my beastery is missing, and take out the last handful of optional bosses before I do the final dungeon.
Guild Wars Nightfall: Trying to finish the main story with my Dervish. Going kinda slow since I really want to finish FFXII so that's where most of my game time is going.
Final Fantasy III: Currently going after the Invincible.
DBZ Budokai Tenkaichi 2: Only a couple scenarios left in story mode.
Trauma Center Second Opinion: Haven't played for a while cause of FFXII. Currently in Chapter 6.

Zelda: Twilight Princess (Wii) - forgot... finding the princess because I'm permanently a wolf right now...
Zelda: Ocarina of Time (Gamecube, the Wind Waker bonus disk which I borrowed from a friend) - Just beat water temple
Zelda: Majora's Mask (ditto) -... early on... something to do with Deku Palace.
Zelda: Adventures of Link (ditto) - I got REALLY far on that one, almost to level 1! (didn't play for long)
Zelda (Original) (ditto) - 9th level
Farcry (Wii) - Being ambushed by tons of "sewer rats", the weird guy took the girl and ran. Very fun, but I should stop trying to beat every single enemy because when you've been attacking for an hour in the same spot, I think you'd learn that there are infinite respawns of them and start running towards the actual goal...
Need For Speed: Carbon (Wii) - Very fun, and I really like the Wii controller for steering. And, as usual, the most fun part is trashing cop cars. On the first Boss challenge... I'd rather trash cops than continue the plot sometimes.
Tony Hawk: American Wasteland (Gamecube) - Beat it... Not worth getting new in my opinion... Nor was THUG2... They sorta got worse as time went on... THAW had an interesting idea, but the story and such really don't make it good.
Time Splitters: Future Perfect (Gamecube) - Not the most recent thing I beat, but still my favorite 1st person shooter.
(To Do: Find a person with PS3 and play Virtual Fighter 5!)
... Thus ends a really long post.

I feel sorry for anyone playing Link's Adventures without a strategy guide and quick save...
I haven't had much time to play anything over the last couple of weeks (which is why I still haven't finished FFXII, although I did make some progress). I took an hour to finish up the story mode in DBZ Budokai Tenkaichi 2, that was about it.
