Caller got me FF4 DS. Yep, the same game over again, but I never tire of it. I love how they improved some of the bosses that just plain sucked to fight before. The earth fiend was ridiculous (though I didn't see if raise still killed him...), and the water fiend was just plain obnoxious. Still gives me a challenge 10 or so years after I beat it the first time.... Kain's voice actor is screwy.

Agreed. I'll never get tired of the game's storyline.

I need to beat FF4 DS still though, I had to back track and I never completed the game.

I hate Kain's voice... it's just not right.

Hoping to get Star Ocean 2 again early next month. Good times there. And maybe the new Tomb Raider, but we'll see. I bought it already for PC but my PC can't handle it. Oh well.

I'll probably beat it and hurrah at beating like... every remake of FFIV

Ugh and they're near my age too. Retards. -.-

So anyone ever gotten to the Riku fight in Chains of Memories after the second Vexen fight? If so...HALP! He kills me in five seconds! >.>;

[Norfy the Walrus]

Yes....but its been forever, I can't remember. I do recall getting so frustrated with some fights and randomly selecting cards super fast without any sort of strategy. Didn't work all the time but it did beat Captain Hook. XD

[Office Ninja]

Yeah good luck with that. Those boss fights were too insane almsot all of the times. Take lots of healing cards and just try to live long enough to wear him down, I dont remember any trick to him honestly.

Hey guys, been awhile. Currently, I'm playing:

Animal Crossing: City Folk: Love it. My whole family: dad, mom, and me are all playing this game and we think its great. I've been visiting a lot of other towns online and thats really fun. I have WiiSpeak now, so that just adds to the fun. I like Nintendo's verison of the headset better then other headsets I've had. No, I'm serious. Its just cool. And fun.

Prince of Persia: Rented the new Persia for five days. Its awesome. The graphics are great and I like the controls & battle system a lot. This has to be the best Persia yet imo. I'm not very far into it yet (beat the first four bosses), but I'm liking it a lot. This might be one to buy.

Suikoden: Downloaded this from the PSN. Glad I did. This game is addictive and fun. Classic rpg! As for where I'm at, I just found the Liberation Army's castle and I'm about to fight the dragon. Ok, well, I fought the dragon once and lost, so I'm about to fight him again. lol. I might have to build up some.

LittleBigPlanet: I LOVE the new Metal Gear Solid levels! They are really great. I especially like the new Paint Gun. I never get tired of playing these new levels. Also, I've been slowly creating my own MGS level. I want to make it fun, wacky, and unique, so it might be awhile till I publish it. lol. LBP just gets better and better.

So thats what I'm playing. I think, no I know, that I'm playing Animal Crossing the most. After that, Suikoden and after that Persia and then LittleBigPlanet.

This year of gaming has definitly been great!

Wow, was a little concerned about you, DF. Glad you are back.

Picked up Suikoden Tactics again. After wasting about 4 hours in the Hope in Haruna fight. Either had one of my units die, or Simeon died... over and over again.

Gave up there and went back to doing side quests, recruited a LOT of new characters, and got about 5 levels... so maybe I'll have more luck in that fight now.

[dejibo]

oooo oooo DF, can I have your Wii friend code??? I will write mine down for you, so that I can go visit your city. You can come visit mine!!

I have been playing harvest moon, tree of tranquility. tons of fun. I love these baby games.

please PM me with your Wii code.

[Norfy the Walrus]

I think its time for me to get back into my Final Fantasy run. I still have Final Fantasy V in my DS. I did beat it but I want to go through the side dungeon. Also, I think Chrono Trigger DS is either out or coming out soon. I will probably play that and Chrono Cross before I move on to FF6. Either way, I want a JRPG to play and since Persona 3 wasn't able to satisfy that craving then its back to old school Square games. Back when the company was worth caring about.

EDIT>> Ok, ok, ok! Another interesting Wii story.

Usually, there's nothing funny about a woman abusing her slot, but this one is just too good to pass up. A NeoGAF eyewitness has recounted the tale of how his neighbor -- a poor, unassuming, completely out-of-touch woman, tried to make a purchase on her Wii -- by jamming three credit cards into the disc slot!

After having to ask what a Virtual Console was, the would-be big spender had been informed that she could purchase games for the Wii by taking it online and then "putting in her credit card" when prompted. She took it literally. When the first card failed to do anything, she believed she had to keep putting them in until there was enough to make it work. Somehow she has survived to adulthood without getting killed.

It doesn't help that she also cracked open her Wii Speak device somehow while putting it on top of the Wii remote's sensor bar. These are the people that publishers want to see more of in the market. These are the people now known as gamers.

As with all truly stupid people, the woman blames the person whose advice she foolishly misinterpreted and now expects compensation. She is, to use the scientific term, one dumb bitch.

The story is almost too stupid to be true, but by the same token, it's too funny not to take a chance on posting. Besides, in a world where people get mason jars shattered in their rectums, I'm willing to accept any tale of human idiocy.

Whew I beat him...I noticed he never broke my Sleights, he just took it like a man, so I overwhelmed him with Arcanum and Blitz and stunned him with Strike Raid and just repeated until he was dead. Then of course bitch comes back for seconds...I think I'm in the last part of the castle now so it shouldn't be long before I start swearing again. Something tells me Mr. Roseyboy has a full deck of zeroes...

[Norfy the Walrus]

The GBA version has a second scenario where you play as Riku. I'd imagine the PS2 version has that aswell. Are you going to do that too?

[Caller]

I haven't decided yet. I really want to know the story though so likely...but if it pisses me off I'll quit pretty quickly. >.>

[Office Ninja]

The Riku version is a LOT better I think. YOu might like it more.

Went to visit DF in Onett ville..his animal crossing town. WOWZER! he has really done the heck out of the town. VERY nice! I felt clumsy cause I didnt have a keyboard, or a wii speak to be able to talk to him. I bet he thought I was rude.

I hope he will come visit my town. my town is a baby town next to his family's stuff. I passed him my friend code, and this time I have a keyboard hooked up, so I can talk to him next time I go over.

I got fresh apples, pears, and coconuts to bring home! SweeT! I want to get some of that snowman furniture he found. that is awesome!

Thanks for showing me around.
