[quote name='Ahadi']Hah well I hope I don't like it that much then ;)

Though I am bugged by the fact that there are a bunch of endings. How do I know which one is the best?!
[/QUOTE]
Dream Team ending is best XD Though you'll need to wait for a new game+ to get it.

That's vague enough for me to take your challenge.
 
How do you guys feel about gaming manuals on the decline? Seriously, I remember when manuals were jam packed full of back story, color content , artwork and they explained the game in full....

Nowadays most manuals are like 5 pages and are in black and white.
 
[quote name='Ahadi']That's a damn fun quest. I found that I needed to slide my difficulty bar down towards the middle/end of it though...[/QUOTE]

I've been playing with the difficulty 2 or 3 clicks to the left of middle the whole time, so I should be fine. The combat sucks, so I'm not playing for challenge, just want to explore and do quests with no frustration. Has been the ultimate "veg out" game for sure. Easy to lose hours a session.

That's good that you've tweaked your difficulty. I forgot that it gets tougher if you do well, so I got stuck in a dungeon full of spell casters on the KoN quest and I got pissed to an extreme degree. Then I realized my bar was like clicked just about half way through.

But yeah, running around, exploring, and breaking into houses is a good time. Combat is a bit dull, but I'll be damned if it isn't fun when you want to mix up the exploring and robbing.

I was wondering the other day if they'll do away with them altogether next gen. May as well do a digital manual on the disc...or tutorials, as has been the trend since last gen. Nobody reads manuals more than once or twice, if that...it's a poor use of trees and kind of a gaming relic more than anything.




Went crazy on gamecube games today:
--Tales of Symphonia
--Cubivore
--Prince of Persia: SoT
--PoP: WW
--PoP: TT
--Zelda: Four Swords
--Viewtiful Joe

all complete! Verr cheap after the coupon + selling the copy of Wii Sports that had just been traded in. I am totally determined to play the original PoP trilogy. I've started SoT so many times and I love it, but I always get sidetracked.
 
I don't care much, I used to always read manuals, now I seldom even look at them once so I haven't really noticed the decline in content in them.

I read your post earlier, I can't believe you actually bought GC games today. :lol:

That's on top of the 4 I bought yesterday (Twin Snakes, Metroid Prime 2, Warioware, REmake.) This 25% off coupon + 10% edge deal is too good.
 
[quote name='whoknows']I went to GS today to buy and Game Genie and they didn't have any.

What a lame store.[/quote]

Cheater!

j/k
 
Got the bad ending on P4... Going to try some more Valkyria Chronicles. This game kicked my ass on like the 4th level.
 
I'm starting to worry about my PS3... It seems to be freezing up alot lately. It mostly happens when I use the internet browser. But last night it froze up after I put a game in and tried to start it.
 
Internet browser froze all the time when I had my 80gb. It's not that stable.

[quote name='Nelo Ice']so im thinkin of pickin up these headphones
http://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-PX...1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1231223801&sr=8-1

theyre $27 from another seller worth it? just wondering since ive never bought from another seller on amazon they have 95% positive feedback though[/QUOTE]

Should be ok, I've bought from sellers many times but not that one in particular.

As I said before, those are great headphones. Probably the best you can get for that price range.
 
[quote name='Maklershed']Buddy lent me Resistance 2 this morning. [/quote]

The single-player campaign is a freakin' blast. Enjoy.

The problem is that it was completely fine up until a about a month ago. And now it just seems to be getting worse.
 
[quote name='Maklershed']Buddy lent me Resistance 2 this morning. :whee:

And it looks like I might be snowed in tonight and have the day off tomorrow. :whee: :whee:[/quote]

Snowed in? Are we getting that much?
DQ4
 
Well I guess "iced in" is the more appropriate term. It's supposed to start around 7pm and go until tomorrow morning. It shouldn't be so bad for you in Lebanon. But cross that border into Schuylkill county or just get north of the Bethel Mountain and it's like a whole other world.

Yeah I got a beta invite for Quake Live too! I'm going to be loving this shit!

My user name on there is SpudBug

It's a funny enemy in Mother 3.
 
im getting OWNED in quake live never played a quake before or a fast paced shooter

Well, after years upon years of inexplicably putting it off, I have finally done it.

I
am no longer the only teenager in the world without a cell phone.

EDIT: Oh yeah, games!

IDK. Maybe Left 4 Dead later.

Cell phone, and phones in general are for noobs.
 
[quote name='Jesus_S_Preston']I know right,
communicating with the world outside your mother's basement is terrible.

Just kidding whoknows.
[/QUOTE]

It's not a basement, it's my
Crib

And
Telepathy ftw. Phones are so lame
 
Telepathy only works if both parties have it. I swear, some people...

fuck, I think I might almost be too sick to play gamez today.
 
So in Chrono Trigger I just
beat Magus for the first about 9 hours into the game.
I don't know, CT's really good, but it hasn't grabbed me yet. Usually a JRPG grabs me about 1/3 of the way through the game, and at that point, I want to play it for 3-4 hours at a time. I can't play this for an hour without turning it off at this juncture. How long do I go before it grabs me?

you probably should already be grabbed. if you're not grabbed by the time you reach zeal, there's definitely no hope, but you've got a bit before you get there.
 
if you're not grabbed by the time lucca fixes crono and he does that pimp robot dance with the pimp robot song there's definitely no hope.

ayla telling kino they're going to bang and have babies when kino is jealous of crono getting crunk and smashing ayla the night before did it for me.
 
Well, Microsoft has officially suspended my Live account, even though I have a valid 3 month subscription card that I have repeatedly tried to activate. The menus on the Xbox keep sending me in circles, so I guess there is no recourse but to call 1-800-4MYXBOX. I really hope there is a straight-forward solution to this problem. :pray:

I knew I wasn't the only one who thought Ayla was a fucking fox.

Did you have an account that you let go past the due date without paying?
