Then I have nothing but good things to say about it! It's fun, especially with multiplayer, and Vaati is an awesome villain. Be warned though, if you're planning on playing multiplayer (Shadow Battle is good fun) you'll each need to have a GBA and the proper connections.

I don't want to ruin any of the plot, but know that Four Swords is amongst my top 3 favorite Zelda games.

I finally finished playing Fable II twice through (once evil - once good) and now I don't know what to do with myself. I feel so...empty.

I think it's a bit better than fable II, actually. But a lot of it is because I liked the very slight cartoony look fable I had, and also I liked the time period better.

They're both great though.

Actually, I think I might prefer the original myself, but only by a slight margin, and not for any reason I can put my finger on really. Both games are on my Top 10 of All Time list though.

(Number one being the first KOTOR - and this from someone that is absolutely NOT a Star Wars fan.)

Taking the advice from various members, I bought the "Four Swords" GC game on Ebay... I'll hold you guys all responsible if I don't like it ::meev::
I want to pick up all the worthwhile Gamecube games sealed before the prices go through the roof. At the moment it looks like most games still go for original retail, or below.

Also, for all you loli game-players out there:
Cookie DS :lol:

I can't speak for Syberia, but I can tell you why Prince of Persia sucks on the DS. Ubisoft, the guys who make those games, don't take Nintendo and they're consoles seriously, so when they make games for us they end up being especially tailored for very very young kids, I'm talking 5 - 8yrs. It's been a big complaint of mine for the past year and a half, but there's not much I can do about it. :\
It's not just Ubisoft. I've seen the pattern with other companies as well. Why spend additional time, money, and energy on a game when it's going to end up selling the same amount anyway? "Casual" games take far less resources to create and lo - they're selling far better than the popular franchises we grew up with. Also, anything built these days that shows any sign of difficulty or originality only seems to get noticed by a specific niche market. Or it'll eventually get ported to another system.

I'm really happy for Mega Man 9, but after 2+ years nothing that's been released on the Wii has reflected what gamers were chattering about when news of the console was first leaked. As exciting as it sounds now I have very little hope for the Motion+. I wish something would happen that would cause Nintendo's little bubble to pop so that they can start creating really good games again.

Flowers: Now that you're done with Majora's Mask, I would suggest starting on F-Zero GX. ::squee:: Try it out for a little while at least.

Man, the conduit looks sick! I'm probably going to get the motion+ just for that game! This'll be the first wii game I buy since ssbb.

Just wait until all the old people die. Then they'll stop making shit like wii music and wii fit.

Alert for any old-school RPG fans!
The Dark Spire (for Nintendo DS) is coming to America in March! It's another Wizardry-inspired dungeon-crawler - I'm so there XD
All you legions of "Etrian Odyssey" fans might want to check this one out too ;)

You know you only can take 5 into the labyrinth at a time, right? XD So you can start with just 5.

I don't know who to cut...the troubador or the medic XD Or the alchemist?


EDIT: Who should I even put into my party? XD

You're supposed to figure that out! XD
But think about it. You have a front line and a back line, and people in the back can't physically attack (or be physically attacked) as well as in the front. In the front line you want your fighters, and in the back line you want your healers, magicians, and such. The manual should tell you what classes are good in what row.
I generally put 3 fighty-types up front and 2 non-fighty-types in back, rather than the other way around.
