I really want to just spend an entire day wandering around the world in shadow of the colossus. >_> The first few times I played it was just KILL THEM KILL THEM ALL, but sometimes I really wanted to slow down and look at the scenery and explore. I can still do it though. The only thing I haven’t done in SotC is beating time attack on hard. That could take....a while though. I think I have over half dead.

On a side note, I love using the explosive arrows to throw wander and the horse around. >_> I literally spend an hour firing arrows all over the place.

Anyway,

Persona 3

There is no way in hell we’re beating this by friday. It’s not an average RPG where you can just blow through it. If it wasn’t for the tarturas bosses it wouldn’t be that bad. They’re the real main impedance to any real progress. Meh. I can always beat it later when I can slow down and spend some time grinding or making up better strategies.

The world ends with you

Went one day up. Mastering pins etc. bleh.

The Dog Island

Got up to finding the first sniff master book. I think i’m pretty far into it. There are a lot of areas left it seems, but I’d say i’m more than 50% through the game. Ein is now sporting a pimp hat, monocle, and tree branch.

The World Ends with you

Mastering pinsssssss. Also lost my notebook with the evolutions in it. I’m sure its in one of the boxes. I’ll go through it tomorrow. Wasn’t too worried. Had  a ton of DOES NOT EVOLVE pins piled up. Also, I decided to not pay attention to the new ones and just level them up with BPP. Mastered some friendships with stores that were available. and lol@ lapin angelique being the worst brand everywhere for me. <_<

Our PS2 at home is broken. D: So I can’t work on persona 3. They say they’re going to pick up a new one. There’s a new super nintendo though! Save batteries in the games are probably all dead though. What do i care I can play turtles IV now. <_<

TURTLES IN TIME FUCK YEAH

Anyway

Deca Sports

Played the demo.. the only fun minigame in it is Figure Skating >______>

I’ll be writing a preview soon.

Mario Kart Wii Still unlocking stuff
Brawl See above

The Dog Island hardly played it. The background music relaxes me and puts me to sleep so I can’t play it after a long day of school so weekends only it seems

Order of the Phoenix - replaying to finally finish my walkthrough located at pottergames.tk I wanted to find my review again and have it put on this newer Ngal but I don’t have a copy of it anymore. The only way to get it is is any archives of old Ngal.

Tales of Symphonia someone lost the mem card with my save on it (as well as all my other GC game saves. 1024 blocks ftw) so that’s been put on hold.

The World Ends with You

Beat it two days ago. I was pretty satisfied with the whole thing. it’s a ton of fun. Now all I have left is to master all my pins and 100% everything else. I was kind of disappointed with the last string of bosses considering the ones before it were so hard. D: I’m taking a break because I’m kind of sick of it. Mastering pins should be soooo much easier now. >_> I think I get like 1000 Battle PP after stringing together a ton of fights.

Pokemon mystery Dungeon

Collecting Unown rocks so i can go through the cave in one go and pray that all the regis join me. Also Leveling my mudkip to 100 so he can solo it.

WEWY

Day... 4? of Beat... or Day 5. >_>

I just want to beat it now because stupid n00bfag did before me. D:<

*SPOILERS FOR ICO, VIEWTIFUL JOE, AND CAVE STORY*


ICO

I zipped through this so quick and since it was a replay I’m not gonna get too detailed. I got the mace, which was pretty dang powerful. It’d take out the strongest shadow monsters in three hits. Anyway, I still had fun with the game even though I didn’t have much trouble with any of the puzzles this time through. Got caught up a bit in that area where you’re alone and trying to climb up all those wheels and stuff in the watery area. The fight with the Queen was easy, and seeing the ending again was nice since I had forgotten exactly what happened. Didn’t remember Yorda being all shadowy like that. Also, I’m trying to figure out exactly how she could have made it safely to the beach along with Ico, back to normal too. Everything seemed really bright and hazy looking (more than normal) on the beach, making me wonder if that little part wasn’t just a dream possibly. I dunno. Good game, but what would be totally awesome is if with another game they combined the idea of this game and SotC. That would be perfect.

Viewtiful Joe

Still having trouble, though I haven’t tried a whole lot since the last time. Got past the first boss and then got my butt kicked by the rhino dude with the axe (forgot his name). Not sure if they’re really harder or I just am out of practice at knowing their patterns and what to do exactly.

Cave Story

Finally downloaded this after having meant to for so long. Started this up last night after fighting with my stupid controller forever trying to get it to work. The physics feel kinda like Metroid; a bit floaty, and the weapons seem to work similiarly. Also, the music that plays when you pick up a life capsul is clearly made to sound like the Metroid music that plays when you get an upgrade.

So apparently I’m some girl who’s lost her memory and pretty much right off I’m having to look for some outsider named Sue (or did I forget her name?). Did a few things and ended up getting trapped in a building with the little rabit-like girl and having to fight a boss, Balrog (I almost typed Morgoth <_<). He was easy to avoid and I took him down quickly. Went on to the graveyard, got the key and then went to the place with the teleporter. After going through that area with the eggs I found Sue with some giant rabbit monster named Igor. He was easy too, I just would shoot, jump over him, and then shoot his energy breath attack if I had to. Sue said I could come with her (though she’s nowhere to be seen when I left the dragon egg building). I’ve got it saved there.

I had only meant to play a couple of minutes since it was pretty late when I started, but I ended up playing for a good bit of time. Seems like it’ll be a good game.

Rebel Raiders: Operation Nighthawk

Alright, so I decided to go and try to finish this up since I knew it would be easy. On the back of the box it says 36 stages, but what it really means is that it’s 16 stages, and then those same 16 are made into challenges, which consist of stuff like time limits, limited ammo, etc... Most of this game SUCKED! You’ve got unlimted ammo, so you can just blast away at the enemy with as many missiles as you want, with only small pauses to reload. It also takes a freakin crap load of fire power to damage your ship, and even then you slowly regain health. I don’t think I ever died once in this game. The controls can be jerky sometimes and if you happened to steer into a mountain you don’t blow up or anything, you just grind into it for a bit, barely taking any damage.

The enemies took several missiles to take down, so it was basically just trying to catch the little stinkers and keep them in view long enough to unload on them. They never bothered to attack much, and when they did it was easily avoided by a barrel roll. The last two stages in the game were a bit better, with it having you fly into tight spaes to chase and be chased by enemy fighters. Still, that tiny bit was nothing to keep this game from sucking. Didn’t really have any fun with it, basically just beat it to beat it.

Oh yeah, and not to mention the extremely generic rebels vs. empire story where you’re the awesome rookie who’s 100x better than everyone else.

The World Ends with you.

Pinnnnnnsssssssssss and noise. Need to go through all of something so I can buy pins. <_<

Mystery Dungeon

Collecting Unown rocks. Still need R, O, S, and T to finish the set. Then I’ll try to recruit all three regis in one go through.

Etrian Odyssey

Contemplating starting a new game doing some kind of challenge run.

Cave Story *SPOILERS*

Spent another half and hour or so on this last night. After doing basically everything I could do EXCEPT what needed to be done, I found the key so I could get gum base. So I got the explosive to bust down the door and rescued Sue’s brother (why the heck does she call him that anyway?) and the professor showed up who obviously knew who I was by his reaction. So after heading back to Arthur’s house I found out that I was a robot (wondered why his face had a weird shape and color) that was used to wipe out the Mimigas before (or did I find that out after this?). Anyway, I went to the Sand Zone, which sounds like something from Sonic. Found the "girl" robot and got the machine gun from her and found out a bit more of the story. Took the dog and continued on. Fought the sand monster thing pretty easily and then found my way to the old lady’s house, who is apparently the mother of Misery. Also went and found another one of the dogs and brought that back before quitting.

I just realized that, while I have died, it’s only been on instant death spikes. I have yet to die fighting against something. Still, this game is great. I forget that it’s just a freeware game.

Viewtiful Joe *SPOILERS*

Dang, this stage is tough. It took me a bit to hit those giant buttons right since you barely have enough of a bar to do it. The first part of the stage wasn’t bad, but the second... The stupid little ride on the moving platform while figthing enemies was a bit tough at first. Then what really got me hung up was the part where you’ve got time limits in each room to get rid of the enemies. After finally finding a use for the voomerangs (they can take out those guys in the black suits pretty quickly, and they help with the rest too) I was able to get through it after much trying.

So, apparently Captain Blue was behind it all. Odd, why was he teaching you stuff before then? Whatever. He’s tough. I think the most I was ever able to damage him was two bars, maybe two and a half. At first I was dying like crazy, but I finally started picking up on things, and I’m actually remembering about the ukemi move (I haven’t really used it much before here). Unfortunately, I had to quit, so now I’ve got to go through the freaken stage again to have another chance at fighting him.

Got my review copy of Deca Sports. :3

So far, it’s not that much better than the demo, but I’m not done playing everything yet. There are still only 3 figure skating routines.
