Title: What games are you playing right now, and what games are you looking forward to
Post by: cupn00dles on March 12, 2008, 09:42:26 pm
Lately what time I have left to use the PC I've been using mostly to play Call of Duty 4 and Unreal Tournament 3 on the net. It's ironic how the COD4 community is much, and I mean MUCH larger than UT3's, considering how much online tradition UT has.

I've been also playing a bit of The Witcher, Command & Conquer 3, Pro Evolution Soccer 2008 and DiRT.


The games I'm looking forward the most are Assassin's Creed, Devil May Cry 4, Alone in the Dark and Tomb Raider Underworld for the PC. I also want to check C&C3: Kane's Wrath, Bionic Commando (whenever it comes out) and Mirror's Edge (whenever it comes out as well).

Brawl.
Brawl.
And more Brawl.

I don't think I'm really looking forward to any games that are coming out, besides maybe Spore. But I think my PC can't even handle that game.

I've been playing Brawl for this past week. I'm midway through a bunch of games, including No More Heroes, Megaman ZX Advent, Mario Galaxies, Overlord and RE4. Arg, I just don't have time to finish games these days. Most of my gaming these days is social. Brawl, Guilty Gear XX:Accent Core and Monster Hunter 2 Freedom.

I'm looking forward to Metal Slug 7, Okami, World Beings With You and Super Dodgeball. I'm hoping that Monster Hunter 3 gets a US release, and Blaz Blue looks cool as well, but they need to announce platforms.

I'm looking forward to actually playing FFCC: Ring of Fates when the friggin ROM gets situated...Also waiting until FFTA2 comes out...& FFIV DS of course...though if RoF is having this much trouble, I bet those will too...

But right now I'm emulating FFIII DS, Pokemon Diamond, & the first Brain Age (I'm only up to...down to?...32)...along w/a slew of the main offenders on GBA...

FFI & II Advance/Dawn of Souls, FFIV Advance, FFV Advance, FFVI Advance & FFTA
Fire Emblem - this time I'm gonna take 'em one at a time
Pokemon Emerald - I'm sorta trying to take the Pokemon games one game at a time, but I ended up getting Emerald, then Yellow, and finally Diamond...Sometime soon I'll probably cave & get Crystal or one of the ones from the remaining GSC gen...V_V
Advance Wars
Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow - been tryin it out...not a big fan of platformers or the Castlevania series in general...it's always been good for what it was, I guess...This one's interesting...I'm just missing where the hell my whip is...V_V
GTA Advance - cause I needed some oldschool topdown view crazy absurd impossible to aim gameplay luv
Megaman Battle Network III-VI - I've actually already beaten at least I-IV...I might have been playing V or I may have already finished it...but I figured that before I started up VI I'd go through III-V playing the versions I didnt' play...stupid & ridiculous, right? The differences aren't any bigger than the differences in the same gen of the Pokemon games really...
R-Type III: Third Lightning - I barely play this...just boot it up when I wanna shoot stuff I guess...
Shining Force: Resurrection of the Dark Dragon - I remember playing this on a Genesis or GameGear emu and the GBA remake/port is really quite good.
WarioWare Inc: Mega Microgames! - I beat it, but haven't unlocked everything...
Yu-Gi-Oh! GX: Dual Academy - The only thing I really hate about these, besides not actually playing against real people (though this AI seems better than previous installments), is the fact that prepping your deck can take as long or longer than the time you actually spend playing the friggin game!

Overlord is a lot of fun. I've yet to finish it.

Yeah. Shame I don't have the time. Presently, Lost Odyssey is my 360 game of choice. I'm still on disk one, which means at this rate, I don't know if I'll live long enough to finish it. I'm really liking it though.

Yeay, I finally figured out the damn Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates (jeezus that's a long title) ROM! My only problem was w/the language on the ROM actually (I still have to change it each time I load it up from Spanish to English)...I haven't experienced any of the "demo anti-piracy" stuff...Hooray...it's not a bad lil title either...though it feels an awful lot like Square trying to be Zelda...>_> I never played the original though...But I suppose most games of the genre are going to be Zelda clones...

Currently replaying "Skies of Arcadia Legends" on my Wii...

I haven't the money to buy a new game (was gonna get Smash Brothers Brawl), so I've opted to play some old games...

What did any of the SoA Legends have that the DC version didn't? They change Aika's horrible voice over bits? Or wait...wasn't everyone's voice overs horrible? V_V Good game otherwise...

Looking forward to more of my unfinished games, probably.

I'll need it, but probably more to complete the huge pile of games I haven't finished.

Been playing Advance Wars Dark Conflict quite a lot lately, along with Apollo Justice, which I finished a few days ago. The Ace Attorney games are amazing. Everyone has to try them at least once in their life.

Also playing through my New Game+ on Crisis Core: FFVII at a pretty steady pace.

I play Chrono Trigger on my PSP every once in a while. I should really get around to transferring my old saves over to it.

Considering ordering a US copy of Brawl and a PAL Wii Freeloader once I have the money for both.

I really gotta get back to FFVI Advance... Same with Metroid Prime 3 and, to a lesser extent, Digimon World Dusk.
Pokemon Emerald - I'm sorta trying to take the Pokemon games one game at a time, but I ended up getting Emerald, then Yellow, and finally Diamond...Sometime soon I'll probably cave & get Crystal or one of the ones from the remaining GSC gen...V_V

Too bad you're emulating Diamond. The Wi-Fi is really good.
Speaking of Diamond, mine's been sitting in a drawer unplayed for a while... I wanna play it again soon.
Too bad Battle Revolution for the Wii was turd, haha.

Yeah, I'd LIKE to actually own most of the GOOD games I emulate & the actual systems they're on, but no moneys for such...I like to tell myself that when I do fall over a huge stack of cash, I totally will buy them...But I say the same thing about MP3s, CDs & books I get from the library, online comic merch, etc...V_V So many things, so little moneys! Hooray for consumerism!

2 games I'm currently having a blast with =

Pokemon Diamond (just got my Monferno to become an Infernape this morning...)

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (HEAVEN if you play it on story mode)

Too many games I have yet to enjoy, most of which are all old ones. But of the new, I am seriously hoping to get Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of a New World

(which I'll add is the big RPG hinted at for a while in Nintendo Power, which some folks hoped was Chrono Break)

Post by: V_Translanka on March 15, 2008, 03:41:55 am
Yeah, people need to at least recognize the fact that there will be no Chrono 'Break' at the least...I'm just hoping for Matrix Software to get to be able to remake CT for DS (after, I'm guessing a slew more FF DSs)...

Post by: V_Translanka on March 15, 2008, 07:37:52 am
Nah, they can do a decent 3D remake for DS, Matrix Software's proven that much...Save the Chrono Cross remake/port for PSP.

back to skies of arcadia legends...

yeah, the voice overs are horrible.  like...legendary horrible.

the added content was they added some discoveries and a new bounty system where you can hunt down black pirates are various points in the story.  they took out the pinta sidequest, though, and i heard that in the dreamcast version you could sell your ship (which you cannot do in legends)

Pinta quest was all right, but only if you dedicated a lot of time to it. In the dreamast version there was no option to sell your ship, parts maybe but not the ship.
