Golden Sun - I HAD gotten kind of far when I first played this a WHILE back...I remember being ok with the stupid oldschool targeting system, really enjoying the telepathic stuff, and getting kind of tired as it trudged on because it gets kind of repetitively cliché...I still want to finish this so I can get to the sequel & see if I can carry over this save somehow through the emu...

Don't worry, you can carry your save data over with a password; it's there for people without two GBAs or a link cable, I guess. Only problem is the password can be annoyingly lengthy depending on the amount of stuff you collected.

Just wanted to pop in and say that the new Kirby game for the DS is AWESOME. Tons of fun, and they added a ton to the Kirby Super Star roster. One ability I wish they would have kept from that mouse game was Three Star but this game is pretty schweet all the same.

I give it an 8, just because some parts are UNGODLY hard.

Yeah a friend of mine keeps telling me to get that one.  Recently I started over on Final fantasy tactics again.  I've been playing The Sims 2 a little bit, but not too much.

I wish more sequels would carry over saves.  I always thought that was cool.  That and the sonic & knuckles cartridge for the genesis.  Practically revamped sonic 3 when you popped that sucker on top.

I am catching up on some megaman, specificially the Zero series as well as the new ZX ones.

Also replaying dark cloud on a ps2 emulator.

Which emu are you using? I could free up some space on my entertainment center if I can get rid of my ps2.

You shouldn't get rid of your ps2... The largest copatibility list of ps2 game in pcsx2 is about 800 but lastest games are not supported.

Right now playing Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney on DS, but it gets boring after a while. I'm looking desperately for a good DS RPG, but so far FFIII and The World Ends With You have disappointed me. Really looking for something a little bit like CT, but I guess that's hard to find. Damn, can't wait for CTDS :(

The first one was better and more interesting. It was just so bland. Story was boring, combat is boring, final boss is a joke I would describe how but I don't like posting spoilers. Just really dissapointed after waiting so long for it.

Anyway I'm looking for an rpg with an engrossing story that takes off pretty early in the game. I was thinking Xenogears or something from the Suikoden series since I haven't played any of those yet.

I can understand finding the Phoenix Wright games to become boring...I play them in spits & spats myself inbetween playing an RPG or something to mix it up...I think the actual DS gameplay (the final case in Pheonix Wright: Ace Attorney for example) is a little better than the straight GBA remake parts though...But the games just aren't about brilliant gameplay or anything (though who thinks so going in?)...

Well I liked the first four cases of PW and played through it one after another, but I guess then I got kinda bored. Especially with that fifth cases, some of the NPC's were just annoying the shit out of me (that cowboy policeguy for example) and it was like three cases intertwined with each other. Got a bit too confusing to be enjoyable for me.

Haven't started on the sequels yet though, I plan to try those in a while.

Certainly nice games, that require a bit of thinking. But like almost any game (save for Cross and perhaps Trigger) after playing it days it just gets a little boring.
