"The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say."
-Fellowship of the Ring, by JRR Tolkien

I'm playing Bebe's kids and barbie's dream vacation on horseback... Ok, so not really...

I just got done beating MGS3 again, and now I'm working on it in extreme... Also, I'm working on "Snake Vs. Monkey" which is a fun diversion... A nice twist on the Virtual missions...

Jade Empire.

So far, it's a well-made game that fails to appeal to any one crowd. The combat is easy and simple; casual gamer friendly, but leaves "hardcore" gamers wanting more. On the other hand, the long dialogue is great story loving gamers, but can be overwhelming/boring to casual gamers.

All in all, *I* still really like the game, but it has alot less customization then KotOR. There are only six "premade" character to choose from, doesn't seem to be a way to change the character's outfit (or any real equipment window for that matter), and such. An the other hand, there seems to be a nice list of fighting styles and weapons.

Wario Ware: Twisted! -GBA

This is game is the most twisted and challenging ADD inspired Wario Ware game to date! I'm having a blast with it and guess what? The title sensor has not once felt like a gimmick. It meshes almost perfectly with the gameplay. -Here's to hoping the Revolution's controller has a gyroscope in it. :)

Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much better than the original, I can tell ya. I just beat Lich on my first try, and the updated music in this is incredible.
You know the music is in a game if you enter an area just to listen to it. :)

The original FF for the NES is too hard and the Gameboy remake was too easy. Can`t they draw a line!

Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones

This is my first Fire Emblem game, but so far I really like it. ^_^
Depend on it. God's work done in God's way will never lack God's supply. He is too wise a God to frustrate His purposes for lack of funds, and He can just as easily supply them ahead of time as afterwards, and He much prefers doing so.
- J. Hudson Taylor
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?" "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet. You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times." It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach. He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

I'm playing Jade Empire, I only just started it two hours ago and it already has me totally hooked (just like KOTOR). My brother practically needed a crowbar to seperate me from the game controller :sweat:

I'm playing through as a female magic type, mostly because she had a cool character design and not so much due to strategy. At this point, I've already died three times, so I'm thinking I might regret that decision (but she looks cool!). As usual I'm too much of a goody two shoes to turn evil and I got stumped coming up with a name, so my character is officially named Chaka Khan.

Go into options and set the difficulty to easy (you won't have to restart). -that’s what I do my first run through. Heh, I personally didn't like any of the male characters it had to choose from, so I picked the red girl (fast type) and died (from cannon). Later, I restarted and settled with the dude in the blue shirt (balanced type). I wish they had more choice like Kotor. Anyways, I named my character, Link the Brave. :lol:



Anyways, still playing Wario Ware: Twisted and a little Metal Gear Acid to the side.

Ah, I totally forgot about the difficulty settings option, it might come in handy. I'm pretty stubborn though, so I think I'll keep plugging away at the medium setting for now, at least until I get sick of dying. Needless to say, I am so grateful for the autosave :sweat:

I'm finding that I don't really mind the limited character selection, but I do kinda wish there was a female bruiser type (weird as she might look).

Oo, I almost forgot! Very awesome name :thumb:
