I just got it yesterday, as well as DBZ Budokai (the first one, with the characters I actually liked) and Super Mario Sunshine (awesome so far, although I haven't gotten far at all).

She'd look at men as little more than pieces of meat. Men tend to not mind being objectified as much as women. I had a weird experience the first time I'd played MvC in an arcade. I'd started out playing a 1P game a few of the new characters, and a girl joined in, with Morrigan and somebody else. I didn't fair so well, getting figuratively raped while her onscreen avatar finished me off by literally doing so. Seeing that move for the first time is a real WTF moment.

Kotz- Mario Sunshine is excellent, but for me, it got very boring after a while due to all the collecting. Renegade- I heard Stranger's Wrath was very good, but it sold horribly. Is it worth the $30 or so it goes for now? I am tempted to try it out just for its quirkiness and inclusion of true "live ammo". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

USC Wuz Robbed! 0 Report post Posted August 2, 2005 SO I recently re-acquired MVP Baseball 2005. Now playing in dynasty mode as Washington Nationals with Rich Harden and Jon Garland in my rotation. I also traded some prospects plus the incumbent starters to acquire Rafael Furcal, Andruw Jones, Carlos Lee and Hank Blalock (I had signed Jeromy Burnitz, Magglio Ordonez and Steve Sparks solely for the purpose of having trade bait), also signed Carlos Delgado. Needless to say I think this Nationals squad has the actual Nationals beat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Open the Muggy Gate 0 Report post Posted August 4, 2005 I just recently bought Super Mario World and Super Mario Bros. 3 GBA remakes (I don't have the original copies on NES and SNES anymore). I must say... it's a nostalgic feeling. It's great playing both of these magnificent games again. I'm sticking to what I believe, Super Mario Bros. 3 is the greatest game I ever played. It was a great, fun, challenging platform with some of the best levels ever made. That is my "Game of All Time". Mario World would be in the Top 10 too. Another great platform game with quite a few great innovations for it's time. Super Castlevania IV is easily up there for me too. Simon and the LIMP WHIP~! That game was just pure fun for me. I don't know why, but I love 2D platform games more than any other style of gaming... I guess that's the way I was brought up. Super Mario Bros. was the first game I ever played. So there ya go I guess... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The way they were pushing the E-reader thing, it seems like they required it to do stuff you could do normally on the SMAS version. So E-reader didn't muck with it much/at all? Or did you go the E-reader route? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So E-reader didn't muck with it much/at all? Or did you go the E-reader route? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Nah, I don't have an e-reader. it plays like the old game without the e-reader. They just have extra levels and items if you go get the cards. I may have to pick up the e-reader one day if it they still have those cards where you can play Ice Climber or Excitebike. Good times, good times... There are a couple of differences. One, if you play as Luigi, you got HE CAN JUMP REALLY HIGH Luigi. Two, the music in some points kinda gets killed in the jump to GBA. In Mario World especially, but that's a different game... but that's just a minor detail. It still plays like the Mario 3 I know and love. I'm in Giant World now. I remember sitting there playing that game entering that world for the first time going "What is this place?" Then I enter the first level going "that is an awfully big cloud. I wonder-HOLY SHIT THAT'S A BIG GOOMBA!" Ah the old days, when these kinda levels like grass, desert, ice, and stuff like that didn't seem generic and overdone...

AndrewTS 0 Report post Posted August 5, 2005 Okay, cool. I might pick it up after all. Did the change Luigi's jump to the SMB2 flutter-kick like in in the GBA SMW? Luigi was sooo much better than Mario in the Advance version of SMW (except for a few areas where you had to move quickly and jump lower) overall that it wasn't even funny.

AndrewTS 0 Report post Posted August 5, 2005 Is it true there's game footage in HOTD?<{POST_SNAPBACK}> There's clips of zombies attacking lifted directly from the game that are spliced into one of the action sequences, used as transitions, and there's like a "Predator-Vision" bit of game footage used all throughout the opening credits. How would that work, wouldn't it be really jarring. Yes. Go watch and see for yourself. Although when you've seen *THAT* action sequence, it's like poorly-placed deck chairs on the Titanic.
