Hey guys, I just killed a Rancor in Starwars Knights of the Old Republic! (Thanks for the tip Diskette)

[The Wheelchair]

Hooray! There's finally a US release date for the new WarioWare!

[The Wheelchair]

I just got Henry Hatsworth in from Gamefly. Epic. Freakin. Boss Fights. Does it get any better than an evil bride that shoots bombs, bullets, and beans at you from atop a wedding cake? I think not.

ITS BRIDEZILLA!! She looks angry!
W-well what do we do?
Running would be a good idea.
RUUUN!!
(bad joke. bad joke.)

I don't know, the seven mouthed, New York city sized eldritch abomination, flat, poisonous, bullet-proof, mind controlling, jelly fish shaped monstrosity at the end of DCoTE was amazing. And she was only the second to last boss.
That game made sense, every time you look at a dead, or mutilated corpse, you started to feel uneasy, characterized by the screen getting kind of wavy. Eventually, the sites of these eldritch horrors, the dead corpses, and the diseased fish people of Innsmouth, would cause insanity, leading usually, to your character's own suicide.

All the Monkey Island games are awesome. I finally got a computer that's high-quality enough to play the Tales of Monkey Island I bought from Telltale half a year ago. Awe-some!

[Sgt. Beadsmaster]

Oh man! I stayed up till like, 1, last night playing knights of the old republic. I stole "the ebin hawk" or however you spell that, and escaped to dantooin or however you spell that. Now I don't really know what to do but I accidentally chose the wrong jedi type!!!! UGH!! diskette, does it really matter what jedi you are? I'm the one that specializes in light sabers, but I'm not very good with a light saber. Now I'm just wandering around in these groves fighting hound things. Also, I came across a dark jedi and she keeps on killing me, I can't beat her!!!


I'm gonna maybe play some more now.

[Sgt. Beadsmaster]

OH MAN! I just killed a ton of mandalorians! Now I've got 2 more light sabers, one of which is red! I'm an awesome jedi!

If you were considering Uzi's post about Doom earlier, you'll like Marathon.
Especially since it is now FREE.
Bungie, the company who made it, has officially STOPPED SELLING IT.
So open source downloading is COMPLETELY LEGAL. The proof is simple enough, the link is FROM BUNGIE.
Here is a link to the website, Just download a scenario, and the interpreter, Aleph One, for your respective computer system.
http://source.bungie.org/get/
To install, just place AlephOne.exe in the scenario folder. and run Aleph one.
Marathon 1, 2, and infinity are ALL available for download. Also, if your compy has OpenGL, I suggest getting an add-on like HI-RES WEAPONS or HIGH-RES TEXTURES. If it doesn't be sure to change the graphics system to SOFTWARE in Game Preferences, accessible from the main menu. YOU CANNOT PLAY THE GAME WITHOUT OPENGL UNLESS YOU CHANGE THIS.
If you want to try the Multiplayer, get Marathon Infinity, but single players should download Marathon 1.
This game was REVOLUTIONARY for it's time for having an actual STORY! Unlike other era games like DOOM whose story was "You are a nameless Space Marine, kill some demons." This game has a story filled with ALIENS, MYSTERY, A.I, ROBOTS, PLANETS, MYTHS, AND SPACESHIPS!
IMPORTANT: The controls are really messed up, so before playing, switch the controls to your liking, such as arrows or WASD.
Mouse look is offered, but optional, you can opt to use the arrows as looking left, right, up, and down.
You know, with all this FREE advertising I do for these Video James companies, you'd think I could get one fat juicy cut of some PROFIT.
If anyone gets it and would like to play through the singleplayer campaign TWO PLAYER with me, please PM and I'll arrange the game.

[Sgt. Beadsmaster]

I just started playing "Marathon", its totally awesome.

[Sgt. Beadsmaster]

YOU GUYS! I got Left 4 dead 2 and Batman Arkham Asylum. I was just chain sawing zombies in it. Batman is totally fun, the grappling gun is totally cool.

[Achenar]

I BEAT PORTAL!!!
Next mission is to get to the Cake Room.

YAY!


Anyways, I was just playing a ton of batman arkham... so much fun! I just beat Bane and then was able to go to the bat cave! Also, I was able to get these new baterangs that I can steer. Pretty sweet.

My brother and I have gotten into this game called "Zak McKracken and the alien mindbenders." It's one of those old LucasArts puzzle games from the 80s. Other such LucasArts games include: The Secret of Monkey Island, LOOM, Maniac Mansion...
Because it's so old, we had to download it from a website, but it's really cool/fun/hilarious/difficult.

[Kinda Long Hair]

So recently, I've been thinking about getting a Madden game for my Wii, but my friend (who has it for Wii) says it sucks. So, I'm probably get the next NBA game for Wii...

[Uzi-Bazooka]

I have Madden 10 for the Wii, and I completely disagree with your friend. It's a great game! Maybe the reason that your friend doesn't like it is because he's doing the harder, more annoying game type (11 on 11) instead of the easy, point-and-pass version (5 on 5.) I'd be happy to answer any/all questions you may have about this game.

[Sam Fissure]

I have one word for all of you:
ModernWarfare2
No, not 3 words, but one, whole, actual word.

Anyhoo, I got a new MMORPG 93% of the way downloaded, so I'll talk about it later.

Yeah, I got that game, it's fun to play once in a while when you can't find anything to do.

I started playing Trauma Center: Under the Knife. It's basically the same as Trauma Center: Second Opinion, but the character sprites are different (Man,Angie looks AWFUL). Im already having trouble with TC:UTK, I dont know why. I was really good at Under the Knife 2,New Blood, and Second Opinion. But eh....who knows? Im so happy I dont have to use the bloody defibrillator in UtK!!! Using it in New Blood and Second Opinion was a pain, and using it on UtK 2 was a NIGHTMARE! But I got stuck on UtK quickly, I didn't even leave Hope Hospital and I got stuck on an operation. I forgot which one though.

[Achenar]

I decided to get Wolfquest, Slough Creek on here just to see what it'd be like.
I was dissapointed.
FIRST OF ALL: On both of my files I got stuck in the 'stalking' and 'eating' animation. I couldn't move or do anything. Eventually I gave up.
SECOND OF ALL: On the second file, before I got stuck, I managed to get to the 'Training pups' level, and all of a sudden: Three coyotes spawn from nowhere. I knew the coyotes would be a threat so I started to alternate between attacking them and moving the pups to saftey. My mate was stuck behind the den and was of NO help so I was left to fight the coyotes. Then I got a popup saying my territory markers were deminishing, RIGHT after that another popup said my pups were hungry and I needed to get them food. The closest carcass was a great deal away and I still couldn't get rid of the coyotes so I just kept fighting. After about a minute I got a popup saying two of my four pups had died (im guessing they 'starved'?) eventually I got really mad so I grabbed one pup and took her to the carcass with me so I could feed her. I managed to feed her when SUDDENLY: I get stuck in the eating animation.

Everyone was so hyped up about Slough Creek, and I am dissapointed, I must say. Just a dang shame.

I had to start over on Marathon because my laptop died, but found that using a MOUSE is more helpful than anything and I'm ripping back through.
Also, on "Kindergarten" difficulty, I found it's fun to try and kill everything with just your fists. When you punch them, they take three seconds to recover so if you can start to punch them, they can't fight back.
IT'S EASIER THAN USING A GUN.

Bloody Paraskevi......!!!
So, I beat all the Hope Hospital levels and moved onto Caduceus. I made it to the level where Dr. Meyers was injected with Paraskevi, and I can't beat it! The following will happen every time;:
(A): Her vitals will drop to 0
(B): The Paraskevi will reach her heart
(C): I lose thanks to the handy-dandy 'Miss Limit' bar....(I hate that thing)
Worst thing, DR. MEYERS IS MY FAVORITE CHARACTER AND I CAN'T FREAKIN' SAVE HER!
Darn Victor......Vector? What's our Vector, Victor? Anyway. End Rant.
I lie. Stupid Paraskevi....I don't care what Vector-Victor said, I could remove that thing the first time I freeze it! I doon't care if he said it'd cause heavy bleeding! I could stop it!

[The Wheelchair]

So on New Years Eve I finally used my free Virtual Console NES game to get Wrecking Crew. Talk about a classic game that needs a reboot! It's gotta be one of Nintendo's most overlooked games. Gimme a new Wrecking Crew game on WiiWare, peoples! You did it with Excitebike!

[These are my saturdays]

I have the original Excitebike. I still don't see what's fun about it.





...But I can't stop playing it!

[The Wheelchair]

Game & Watch Collection finally came in the mail! Retro goodness!
