I was just playing Dr Jekyll and Mr. Hyde on the good ol' Dreamcast, made it a little past the singing lady, half way through the next level. I'm not gonna give up, I so have to see what the ending is like to this game. :lol:

I dealt out 7 hours of my life to Final Fantasy 2 yesterday, as predicted, once I played that first one, I knew I was going to have to play the rest of them. I do not like the way the plot forces you into certain things in this one. I do not know how I managed to survive the Antlion cave and battle. Luck, that's all.

Being such a fan, you should grab Dawn of Souls for sure. You could probably even find it cheap now.

Cool link! Oh, yes, to be sure, this one is on my List. I really like some of the changes they made, and usually I don't like the tampering that goes on with a game with its arrival to a different game system, but somehow, in this case it's OK (a major factor being that the graphics are much improved).

Well, I can't tolerate FF1 on the NES, but the Dawn of Souls version is nice and easy to play. No more buying armour without knowing who can use it! Basically, it's FF1 running in the style of the SNES FF games.

Dawn of souls is pretty sweet. I am now playing Tony Hawk's American sk8er land for NDS.

I am now playing Tony Hawk's American sk8er land for NDS. I was wondering if that was any good. I was considering picking it up just for the WiFi play, but I don't know anyone else that owns it, and uses WiFi.

I was alternating through too many to mention the past few days, but I think I've settled on these three for now:
Final Fantasy 2
Super Mario RPG (Wicked fun; I didn't even know this one existed).
Pugsley's Scavenger Hunt for NES. This one looks eerily like "The Addams Family" for SNES...

I gave up on The New Super Mario Bros. I didn't beat SMB 1 (or 2 or 3) so why did I think I was going to win this one???
So now I'm going to work on Mario and Luigi Partners In Time (DS). Hopefully it'll be much nicer to me.

Currently playing MegaMan X8. Not too bad of a game (especially for $3), but the final boss(s) is a pain in the you know what. And I can't unlock some of the metals :( I'm sure once I beat it I will have some new ability or something.

Well, I only recently discovered that there was an NES game based on Asterix, and I promptly tracked down the ROM... and it's everything I could have hoped it would be.

Today, I'm going to lay all the ROMs aside and my wife and I are going to play SMB 3 together until the end (she'll probably only participate until her patience snaps, I figure around the level where the big fish are always flying up and gobbling you).

Then again I hate all boards that have fish incorporated in it. (Especially those damn water boards).

I've given up playing "Amped 3" for now. It's starting to get tiring, the challenges are all the same, just on a different Mountain. I was hoping for something like 1080 Avalanche. I may trade it in tommorow, for Call Of Duty 2, or the new Tomb Raider.
For now (or rather when I find my gameboy) i'm going to be working on Links Awakening, and Pokemon yellow. :oops:

I got back to "Big Brain Academy" (japanese version) again. That's also a very nice piece of software and worth picking up when it hits the shelves over there.
I think I could get better results there if I could play it in German. In the Japanese version my "brain weight" (not age :wink: ) is about 1400g. I could score more I'm sure, but I take a bit longer to read and sometimes I just don't know the words in the vocabulary plays. :cry:

I'm playing the translated ROM of Dragon Buster II right now... I can't tell if I like it yet. I want to like it, especially since it can make you jump (distinctive monster footsteps and low visibility is a nice switchup for the NES [er... I mean Famicom.]). It's also a topdown adventure/dungeoncrawler, which is a good thing, in my opinion. I also like that you just move from dungeon to dungeon on the simple main map in any order you choose (sort of. You're limited by obstacles and dungeons in your way). You also have only arrows, and have to conserve them. They also ricochet, adding a little strategy to the game. It also has good music (when any even plays). On the other hand, the dungeons are not randomly generated, meaning that you will be exploring six carbon copies of two dungeons in the first world. Also, the dungeon layout loops, and there are little to no landmarks (except maybe one disfigurement on one wall, or maybe a wierd corner) so it's easy to get disoriented. Outside of that, the incessant, neutral-pitched drumming of your footsteps is a potent psychological torture device, and I'm not sure how to beat the last boss (other than flailing wildly).
