Thread title.
I'm working on Final Fantasy 5 for PSX, but it isn't going so well. I wanted to max out all the jobs before pushing forward, but after the fire crystal I've been farming for 20 game-play hours, and I'm still not done.
What are you playing right now?
New Super Mario Bros 2
Pushmo
Never did finish FFV. I got stuck trying to kill some crystals or something, got discouraged, and never returned.
If I don't win the Lottery I'm never going to get through my back log of games. Being OCD, that's pretty much every highly rated game ever made.(7 or >😉
Even if I played every game I ever wanted to, which are admittedly mostly only on Nintendo consoles, by the time I finished I'm have a massive backlog from this generation.
I'm playing Final Fantasy VI Advance. I was playing Skyrim and Assassin's Creed Revelations, but I got away from both during my summer classes and I haven't gotten back to them yet. I've been playing a lot of easy old school games that I don't delve too much into. I finished all 6 of the original Mega Man games this summer as well as Mega Man 9.
I should be working on Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4; I had played through all the games in the series I own since I haven't done so in ages, and my memory card was corrupted and I lost half my data anyway, then saved this for last cuz it was the best. But I sorta drifted away from it for a while. I also have a Wind Waker run I need to be finishing. Then some games I haven't even started yet that I own and need to get to...
I'm playing Final Fantasy 12 International edition. so far I'm liking it more then the US version.
And I'm working on The Elder scrolls V: Skyrim as well. So far Skyrim is one of the most epic games I've played in awhile.
Things I should be playing if I could devote a couple solid days...
Skyrim
Kingdom Hearts DDD on 3DS
Finish the last half of Mario Land 3D
More NSMB 2
*points to siggy*

I've been meaning to play through WW again for years. I only played through it one time after I bought it. Normally, I replay games I like every couple years but for whatever reason, I never got through this one again.
The graphics still hold up today. I still don't understand why people were so up in arms about the style.
Speaking of Zelda, I sold my Wii, so now I can't play Skyward Sword.
I don't either, they were wonderful graphics, and I'd love to see a Zelda game on 3DS utilize the style. The reason I actually wanted to play it again was because I couldn't tell whether Skyward Sword or Wind Waker is the best 3D Zelda game in my opinion, so I was replaying WW, which I hadn't done in a while, to refresh my memory and remind myself which is better. I'll probably end up picking WW; it was far better in terms of exploration and finding secrets, whereas SS skimped out on much of that. 😞
I honestly wasn't too impressed by the cell shaded DS entries. Phantom Hourglass was OK, but not great. Spirit Tracks was just too out there in terms of a Zelda game for my tastes. I couldn't get over the train / Zelda ghost thing.
I agree, they're the weakest in the series. I enjoy them, Phantom Hourglass more than Spirit Tracks actually (I seem to be one of a mere few), but yeah, they could be much better. The 3DS, though, well, if they make a game similar to OoT/WW/TP with the WW graphics on it, it would look fantastic. But I wonder what the chances are of us actually getting a game like that, which makes me sad. 😞
I don't think I've ever completed a single handheld Zelda game. 😞
... between Link's Awakening, the Oracle games, The Minish Cap, and the two DS Zeldas? You're missing out. D:
(Opinions vary on those entries, mostly with very positive on LA and Oracles and mixed on TMC and the DS games.)

Speaking of the handheld games of Zelda. I loved Link's Awakening in fact its one of my personal favorites 😊
I can say the about OoS/OoA and TMC, But the DS titles I just couldn't stand the controls were horrible <__<.
Still to this day out of all the zelda games The DS Titles are the weakest games out of the whole series...
Playing around in Second Life as Samus, but the whole thing is starting to piss me off now. bleh.
...no, not doing anything like *that* XD

Yep. I played through most of Link's Awakening but never completed it. I'm ashamed.
I've also never completed Zelda II, but I feel no shame about that at all. lol

Yep. I played through most of Link's Awakening but never completed it. I'm ashamed.Fun final boss. Overpowered item acquired in level 8.
I've also never completed Zelda II, but I feel no shame about that at all. lolWorth it. The final boss has his own end music. Never has the phrase "Your move, Link!" been so relevant.
----------------
Currently playing:
- Skyrim + Dawnguard - I'm a rogue type character. Very sticky fingers. Oh god, very very sticky fingers.
- Fallout New Vegas + Full DLCs - I have the "Willow - Enhanced companion experience" mod. She's really immersive, I have to say.
- Beat Hazard - Fast paced action done to and with amazing music.
- Divine Divinity 2: Dragon Knight Saga - I am the Dragon. Of course, you're supposed to be.
- Going to be trying out Maple Story soon.

Just Four Swords. I found Four Swords Adventures highly enjoyable, if not vastly different than what we're used to. It still had some neat design.
ctrl-alt-delete wrote:Yep. I played through most of Link's Awakening but never completed it. I'm ashamed.I was the same way, till I recently bought it off the eShop and beat it. It's now my second-favorite Zelda game, behind ALttP.
ctrl-alt-delete wrote:I've also never completed Zelda II, but I feel no shame about that at all. lolHa, me neither. I played a bit of it on emulator and got past the first two temples, but I just do not have the patience to invest in mastering that game. Or grinding. I might start over with some cheats, because I'd like to say I've been able to play all of it, legitimate or not, but I'd rather play the other games. Zelda II is actually fun, it's just ridiculously difficult.
Anyways, I think I'mma try to get back into playing THPS4 tonight, get some of those goals done and try to get back to 100%. Such a great game...
I picked up Chrono Trigger on DS today. $20 well spent. I haven't played this version of it yet.

Oh, I love that game! Great story, wonderful music. Just an overall fantastic game. 😊

I haven't beaten it as well, But I don't see who anyone could >_<

Yes even weaker then four swords :P.
But I will say I did love Four swords adventure!. that was a highly memorable game.

I absolutely Love Chrono Trigger, But I was not a fan of the DS version. the text seemed a little to small.
I think I'll stay with my Snes version till they remake one of these days with new graphics and everything and not on a handheld >.<
I've been playing Mann vs. Machine in Team Fortress 2. (See avatar.) It's a surprisingly good game mode -- I honestly wasn't expecting that much out of it but it seems like they put a lot of effort into it and they actually made design choices that make sense. Thumbs up!
ctrl-alt-delete wrote:I've also never completed Zelda II, but I feel no shame about that at all. lol
I've actually beaten Zelda II, somehow! It's painful as hell though and I don't blame anyone who hasn't beaten it.
Probably my most shameful Zelda-related secret is that I haven't beaten both of the Oracles games. I didn't beat Oracle of Seasons until just last year, and I still haven't gotten through Ages. And I haven't even touched Skyward Sword yet. I suck at keeping up with Zelda games.
Just finished Sin & Punishment 2 as Isa, going through it again with Kachi. Probably would've started on easy if I'd know it was so heavy on the punishment. 😛
I got Half-Life 2 the other day, and started playing, then I looked up and it was 3:30 am. o_o;
Recettear - An Item Shop's Tale. I think I may have diabetes now from all the cuteness
The Satellite wrote:I should be working on Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4About two weeks later I finally actually did that, and I completed every goal legitimately without cheats, something I couldn't do as a child; heck, there was one goal (trick off every object in the South Bank on the London level) I could never get and had to have a cousin beat it for me, and I got that on the second try (I restarted on my first try cuz I messed something up). So yeah, I feel good about that; if I truly want to 100% it though, I need to get all cash, gaps, and buy all items. That's not something I'm sure I want to try just yet. :B
I also played through and beat Mega Man 3 recently. ... with save states. I'll probably go back to the series soon and try to beat the first two, then the rest of the NES games.

I own that game! Haven't done much with it though past the first dungeon.
I'm taking a break from final fantasy 12 international edition.
And I found a copy of Postal 2 at a yard sale for 3 bucks. and I have to say this game is really funny XD.
I've been into Terraria off and on. There's thing about both it *and* minecrack I like though.
As for Chrono Trigger on DS, it is a lot more than just a SNES port.
*for starters*, it has everything from the PS1 rerelease except for the loading times. It also has a completely rewritten translation (Frog doesn't sound Shakespearean, though he does still sound noble.) There are more/new dungeons to the game, new items, a new "pokemon"-like feature, and even a new ending in which Magus *does* find Schala.
[spoiler]and yet it is possibly the darkest thing to come out of all this.[/spoiler]
Chrono Trigger is one of the best games of all time and the DS game made it even better. Re-releasing that was such a great idea and I am so glad they did!
