Earthbound was awesome.  Just started up Oblivion again on PC for the whateveritisnowteenth time, alas it's still fun.  I played the original Ninja Gaiden not too long ago, man how you could beat that game in one sitting is crazy to think about now!!

(Lol I fail at quotes)

I prefer Triforce of the Gods/A Link to the Past, Link's Awakening, Majora's Mask.

I agree, LTTP is my personal favorite, but really, I love all zelda games.

There ya go, I fixed your quote for ya...Y'know, it's really not difficult, though...there's a lil "Quote" button by each person's post for easy access...If you just wanna know how the tags look, though, now you can just click "Edit" on this post to see what it looks like (in fact, if you hit "Quote" on anyone's post that uses tags you're unfamiliar with, you'll be able to see the tags...quite a useful lil button, really)...

Got my DS back yesterday. I think you all know what that means.

sexy time Corno Trigga! Have fun~.

HyperNerd is right. Twilight Princess was so easy it was embarrassing, especially the final boss. On my second playthrough I avoided collecting any hearts, and still got to the end of the game without dying. Of course, I can't actually prove this since unlike its predecessors, TP does not keep track of how many times you've died... But still, it's not even difficult. Try it sometime.

And oh yeah, I'm currently playing:

Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World
Kingdom Hearts Re: Chain of Memories

[HyperNerd]

Oy, I think you guys are taking me the wrong way.
I love Twilight Princess, its just easy.
It's still ridiculously fun, I especially like sniping pigs with my bow and arrow on the Eldin bridge.
But, once again, Chrono Trigger is much, MUCH better.
(But i'm sure we all agree, or we'd be on a different website.)

Can't be much easier than Phantom Hourglass.  It's too easy and too short.

[Shadow D. Darkman]

I disagree, Delta. Take into account how much time you spend either in dungeons, or on the high seas. The one place I've spent the most of my gameplay time is the Temple Of The Ocean King, since it's hard to remember what to do next unless you have the guide. I have the guide myself, but I hardly use it, since the next task usually presents itself given enough time.

I don't have the guide.  But I've memorized where to go in there with all the times they make you do it.  And that is like the only place that takes forever to do.  The dungeons are ridiculously short.  I could probably get through the last dungeon in less than half an hour.  And you don't spend very much time at all on the ocean.  Especially if you compare it to Windwaker.

As much I like Phantom Hourglass, it felt very watered down from previous installments and... yeah, the Temple of the Ocean King goes without saying.

Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon continues to kick ass...whenever it comes out wherever you are, you had better buy it so that they remake the other hoard of FE games we didn't get in English!!

Anyways, I greatly enjoyed Minish Cap over Phantom Hourglass (which I still haven't picked up again)...Stylus controls is a (mostly) stupid, pointless & overrated gimmick.

Yeah, pretty much everyone here was playing it when it came out a few weeks ago...I think CTDS interrupted most everyone's playthrough, though (it did to mine anyways...along with Tecmo Bowl: Kickoff & the previously mentioned Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon)...

Europe got it first! before the US ...And it isn't even out here anywhere I've looked. Weird.

Okay, seems it's out of stock in UK Game stores.

Anyway, I tried out the rom, and er, lost a guy in the tutorial and was gonna reset but I might just go out and buy the game.

[Umaro]

Before CTDS I was playing Fallout, Gothic, and Anachronox. Now, CTDS has been getting most of my attention with some Guitar Hero World Tour on the side. I just went halves with a friend on Left 4 Dead, though. So I'll probably start putting a lot of interest in that.

[Feldschlacht IV]

Alundra. How many of you have actually played this gem?
