Connecticut Player Finder: We're better than you <3

[Mogwai]

I'll make it for you post work when I can snag the vid of youtube. in fact, if you want to make sure I do it, just link me to a youtube vid of it with what segment you want by like 6ish.

@Thumbs, I played through them and enjoyed them, but like, I dunno, having a challenge is what'll make me play a single player mode through again.

/loved Galaxy

 

[pockyD]

i loved mario galaxy

Steve Carrell was horrible in Anchorman, are you kidding me? He was the worst part of that movie. He was good in 40 year old virgin which was only good the first time you watch it and also in The Office....other than that hes pretty bad. I mean he's funny...but nothing epic.

is it weird that this guy disagreeing with me only reaffirms my opinion

 

[thumbswayup]

Yeah, replay value is always a good thing.

I loved Golden Sun. I've beaten four or so times when I was a lot younger. And I'd play it again right now, that's how good that game is. I sadly never played the seond one

edit-

is it weird that this guy disagreeing with me only reaffirms my opinion

That's the funniest thing you've ever posted

 

[Mogwai]

I perfected the final boss of Galaxy on the first try, sorry, but that's bull****. I'm not that good at video games. I shouldn't be able to **** your final boss without getting hit on the first try...

 

[Pakman]

The only game in the past like half decade that has challenged me on a Nintendo system has been Contra 4 for the DS. I miss continues.

As far as replay value goes, Dead Space, The Force Unleashed, MGS4 and probably inFamous are the only recent single player games that I actually plan on playing again.

 

[wWw Dazwa]

Mario Galaxy 2 looked like MG1, copy and pasted the engine with new levels, oh, and Yoshi.

With that said, I'll probably play and enjoy it, but I hope they don't expect me to

Spoiler

do any Luigi levels

again >_>

I'm liking NSMBWii though, because I really liked Four Swords <_<

 

[noodles]

megaman 9 was a challenge to me

I got all the stars in Mario Galaxy

Spoiler

With Mario and Luigi. Come on how could I not play through with Luigi.

and there were one or two pretty tough levels.

megaman 9 was a challenge to me

I forgot about that one. I beat it my first run through only using the mbuster. It was quite difficult.

hard to believe you've followed me around and read all my 8000+ posts

i feel like that's oversimplifying; the final boss never makes or breaks a game for me... a lot of the stage designs in mario galaxy were absolutely amazing, and that's what sticks in my head

 

[Mogwai]

Dazwa, Yoshi is a big deal. Like, have you seen how cute that muther****er is? it's not even fair!

Well, yes, it's an oversimplification, but it wraps up my gripes with the game into a nice little anecdote. Level design was cool but never asked much of me as a gamer (aside from the like, lava 8-bit Mario/Luigi stars on the toy world, which were mildly challenging).

 

[thumbswayup]

That's the funniest thing you've ever posted in this thread.

Happy ?

That is a good point. Most of my favorite moments in mario games are usually just certain levels. (The shoe level in SMB3 is my favorite level in the whole franchise.) Like the boss fights are fun, but they are rarely what makes mario games challenging.

Same here, but upon finishing all I could think was "I shouldn't have done that, that was a waste"

After playing against a certain New England Brawl Yoshi, I'm convinced I hate Yoshi. He's an annoying butt

I was really close to getting work done today, but then this thread got exciting. Good work CT thread!

Completely agreed. I feel like breaking a game down just to its difficulty level is pretty shallow.

Edit: Daz that vs yoshi match on jungle japes just HAD to convince you even just A LITTLE that brawl was gay?

 

[Pakman]

Yeah I get what you are saying. I did have a sense of accomplishment, but it was definitely a little too much time.

However, the greatest waste of time I ever spent was getting every single gap in Tony Hawk 2. Every. Single. One. I also played through MGS4 without being caught or killing an enemy on hard mode. That took forever.

I was really close to getting work done today, but then this thread got exciting. Good work CT thread!

I am in the same boat.

CT thread is the best.

 

[thumbswayup]

The greatest waste of time I ever spent on a game was capturing ten of every single monster in FF X.

Every one.

Ten.

 

[Zombie Lucille Ball]

The greatest waste of time I ever spent on a game was.... wait I'm not that dumb.

ff10 was well worth all the hours i put into it.

Same ;_;

But I ended up wasting a LOT of time playing Blitzball

Which was totally worth it

DOO, DODO, DODO, DOO DOO DODO, DODO

blitzball theme is too gud :D

 

[SwiftBass]

omg god of war

I think it will be one of the best games ever. Like its soooo mature and soooo badass. I mean who wants grandma and stuff to play video games anyways? God of War is refreshingly gory and its nice that I can do simply so I can enjoy is deep and totally original storyline.

Its not totally original. Its based off of Greek Mythology.... Its not that deep either. God of War is all about gameplay, and that gameplays is fantastic.

LOL I spent over 100 hours playing Blitzball (a lot of it to get Wakka's Sigil lol). That theme was burned into my memory.

**** yo get trolled without me even tryin hard.


**** god of war

 

[Zombie Lucille Ball]

Actually I change my mind. A combination of Goldeneye, Mario Kart 64 and Super Smash Bros. (64) almost made me fail out of college.

 

[pockyD]

bleh, the only comparable thing i've done is catching 'em all

i don't really spend much time on 1-player games, mostly because i get frustrated so easily

 

[Mogwai]

I had about 40 hours of blitzball logged before I realized that while the concept was cool, the actually system for playing blitzball in that game was pretty boring . I've also wasted a good deal of time getting OKish scores on Melee HRC, but it impresses all the *****es and gets them to put out at tournies, so it was well worth it.

And I think Pocky and Cog are mad shallow for completely ignoring difficulty in their analysis of Galaxy.

OK, no, I don't really, but I think it's bull**** that they're giving me **** about judging it for it's difficulty. The game was easy. I'm not saying I hated it cause it was easy, I'm saying that I didn't play it again cause it was easy. I'm not giving a review of the game, I'm talking about a particular gripe, I don't need to address what I liked about the game when I'm just talking about a particular aspect.

 

[pockyD]

well you said you were bored with the game, and i feel that if so, you might have been placing too much emphasis on one part... though obviously we can't control what's 'fun' for us or what's 'boring', so if it bored you, i'm sorry to hear that

there was that one stupid speed comet with one stock with all the lava crap and the twisty mountain at the end that was incredibly annoying and hard though (and also that other speed comet on the sand place with the hole in the ground that turned you upside down)

I had trouble with the one comet that gave you 1 HP and you had to fight that rock boss.

 

[Mogwai]

well, I'm just generally disappointed with the difficulty level of games this decade. I want beating a game to feel like an accomplishment.

Well that's the first thing you said about the game, and you pretty much said it ruined the entire thing so in that case it's not just one particular aspect.

DAMMIT

i was playing wifi and i heard final fantasy 7 so i figured it was a remake ;_:

 

[Mogwai]

ff7 failed to impress me. I played it way late though, so maybe you needed to be caught up in the hype for it to be a ZOMG AMAZING game, but either way I was just like, meh, w/e, just another decent Final Fantasy.

 

[Mogwai]

Well that's the first thing you said about the game, and you pretty much said it ruined the entire thing so in that case it's not just one particular aspect.

Exhibit A:

galaxy was fun enough, but I'm frankly bored out of my mind with how easy Zelda and Mario games this decade have been. I mean, I always enjoy them, but I don't think I've given any of them a second playthrough since like, Ocarina...

Seems you need to get your facts straight.

I enjoyed Galaxy, but I'm tired of games having no obstacles other than time between me and the credits.

 

[noodles]

i love ff7

i think ff8 and 10 are better though

 

[pockyD]

so maybe these games aren't true 'classics' like their snes (and maybe even n64) counterparts were, but as long as you enjoy the game the entire way through, i would say that it meets expectations

 

[Mogwai]

DID SOMEBODY SAY FINAL FANTASY 6!? oh wut? you didn't!? well, wtf is wrong with you Noodles?
