I forgot about this game, I'll probably go back to it when I'm through with God of War or take a break from it.

Totally. I've been getting some cravings to play this again. It's fun when you have that insane gun and can plow through bosses in 15 seconds. The only problem with this game is the briefcase system, and that's easy enough to deal with.

I don't know. just the fact that at some parts it's really damn pretty looking, and you can go wherever you want. I guess I just haven't played such a huge game since Morrowind.

I only played it for a little bit so maybe it's more impressive later on.

Animal Crossing: Wild World.
Sonic Rush
Mega Man Anniversary Collection

Dead · 12-30-2005, 04:26 AM

I read that if you've played Animal Crossing, 90% of the DS version is just a rerun of the same old stuff. This really turned me off.

ChristHimself! · 12-30-2005, 04:53 AM

I completed Jade Empire (way of the open hand) after it randomly started working again, it was pretty good but there was an anti-climax at the ending cause I just annihalated the final boss in about 10 seconds.

Then me and my brother took a few turns of Crimson Skies, which I found pretty enjoyable!

Karl Connor · 12-30-2005, 11:22 AM

im currently ruining my life playing:

-- shadow of the collosus: christ, what a beautiful game

-- Dragon Quest VIII: Game of the year, hands down. too bad i don't have enough time to finish it

-- Rez: a really rare PS2 title for stoners. i finally ordered a copy off amazon for about 70 bucks. this is perhaps the greatest game in awhile. toke up and play this shit. you won't be disappointed

Two great games! Rez is especially rare! Did you eBay it?

Well so are many games. Tekken series, shooters, especailly Nintendo games are usually similar when it comes to sequels because they work so well. Animal Crossing on DS isn't really a sequel though, however for being what it is it is an amazing accomplishment for a handheld system (there are plenty of new features too).

Sometimes I think Nintendogs and Mario Kart DS would be cool but I don't want to have to buy a DS. If I did, the Mario Kart bundle is a good deal.

dean moriaty · 12-30-2005, 03:11 PM

rez is awesome, i wish i had a copy.

my friend gave me halflife 2 for the xbox for christmas and that's what i'm currently playing

seign · 12-30-2005, 10:20 PM

My cousin and I have been getting stoned and playing the warriors everyday for the past week or so. I play some namco pac-man collection with my mother. I let her beat my high scores sometimes to make her feel better and play with me more often heh. I wish they made a bubble bobble collection. She used to looove that game. I can't get her into playing emulated games though because she's such a technophobe.

Rockin' Cherub · 12-30-2005, 10:36 PM

i'm playing fallout again. video games suck these days.

i'm playing nhl2k6 and project gotham racing 3.

often when i'm drunk, i'll attempt to beat the original mario bros. with a single life as quickly as possible.

funnygeezus · 12-31-2005, 12:19 AM

too many games...

resident evil 4 (gamecube) - i finally got around to starting this... it only took like a year. fucking WoW pretty much kept me from doing anything else (game related) for the 8 months i sunk into it. anyway the game is amazing. i was tearing through it at an alarming rate then i got my xbox 360 and now i haven't touched it for a few days, but mark my words: i am not shelfing it again until it's done.

call of duty 2 (360) - pretty sweet game from what i've seen and played (mostly seen). i haven't really dug my teeth into it yet, there's just so much on my plate right now, gamewise.

perfect dark zero (360) - a little underwhealming as a follow up to one of my favorite games on the n64, but the co-op is still amazing and makes the game worthwhile for anyone who can muster up a second person to play with.

kameo (360) - another game i started but haven't had a chance to touch since the initial session. i did the tutorial and it seemed like a pretty fun platformer, but i was on a co-op kick and the co-op in this game is awful.

condemned (360) - played it at a friend's for a bit and i thought it was excellent. i'll have to pick it up next week after i put a dent in everything else i'm playing. it's up there with CoD 2 as a frontrunner for the best launch title on the 360, and since i've actually played this one i'm going to have to give it the edge (at least until i give CoD a fair shake). the hand-to-hand combat and forensic sequences are both really fun and add a ton to the game.

farcry (pc) - i skipped this when it first launched because my comp was shit and then when i upgraded i was deterred by the game's obnoxious copy protection. it came bundled with the video card i got for christmas so i decided to give it a shot. it's a bit of a pain getting the thing started (even after i disable all my blacklisted programs), but when i have managed to get it running (which i've found is fairly easy if i open and close the cd tray and then launch the game from the ********* splash screen, but curiously not if i initiate an ********* without opening the drive) i've found that the game itself is quite excellent. i still think the copy protection is obnoxious and mostly hurts legit users (as illegal users will alway find wrokarounds), but the game is so solid that i'm willing to tolerate it.

mario and luigi: partners in time (ds) - i've had this sitting on my desk waiting to be finished for nearly 3 weeks. i'm almost done and should finish it the next time that i play it. it's a really fun game while it lasts.

i pretty much shelved F.E.A.R. and Quake 4 because i had so much else going on. i'm sure i will return to both at some point in the future. i've officially quit World of Warcraft, but i've still got a couple of months' play left on my subsription so i might just fall back into that pit of dispair. anyway, i'm going to go try out madden '05 for the 360 now...

chris_bakewell · 12-31-2005, 11:11 AM

I've started playing resident evil 4 again on the Gamecube.

I'm still playing Gta: liberty city stories.

And i'm thinking about getting Metal Gear Acid or wipeout pure.

I'm still playing GTA LCS too. Socom has a really good online feature and the controls are pretty decent without the 2nd analog stick. I'm thinking about getting X-Men Legends next.

mpp · 12-31-2005, 02:37 PM

I haven't owned a video game system since Nintendo in 1988.

I just simply don't have the patience for learning games and bullshitting around with them.

tcm · 12-31-2005, 03:04 PM

i haven't owned a system since the SNES, but the Nintendo DS is seriously tempting. the Revolution probably will be too. Nintendo's antics are drivin' me wild.

Damn, it don't come out untill February over here (UK).

I should be getting my wireless router Tuesday. What other PSP games are worth getting for online play?
