Hey, BPx if you decide to go the game tomorrow. I'll be in the NE corner of the stadium at the very top under the scoreboard.

Go Hawks and cover this 13.5 point spread so I can make some money. :O

Its more tense then the average SRPG which is basically just glorified rock paper scissors or a grindfest./QUOTE]

I realize that most people weren't fortunate enough to own, let alone play, Dragon Force or Shining Force 3 (both saturn games) but those SRPG games are amazing and the former requires A LOT of smarts/skill. My copy of DF got stolen but I have SF3 still.

I like KH.......... it is... meh... very frustrating when you don't know what to do. KHII is the first KH I got into and it was fun and Sora looks like a beast and all.

MGS3=so good.

and DW: Gundam 2. so. good. S.Freedom all-day. until I unlock Nu.
Gundam is my cheese to my cheese.

Gundam Extreme Vs. Sept. 22nd IwanttogotoatleastCHQifnotthenearestLovegety.
I have Next Plus ; ) if anybody has a psp, import GvGNP. it's so awesome.

KH > KH2, though KH2 did have its moments and cool dudes. The entire series has always been kiddy to some degree, though. I give them kudos for making it as serious as they did, with Goofy and Donald being your lackies and all.

If you kids want a REAL game, Silent Hill franchise is boss. Or if anyone has no life and is mad good with video games, try Siren (glonthatoneyo)

KH was, in a word, frustrating. Frustrating camera, frustrating difficulty, frustrating design choices. The game simply wasn't that fun to play, its worlds and story were its saving graces.

KH2 was a VAST improvement IMO. The gameplay was so vastly improved and streamlined that it made me never want to go back to the clunkiness that was the original. The story was better too. The best one I've played, although I've heard that BBS is better.

I'll give you the story being better--in parts, though lots of it was full of WTF and cliche/confusing.. but I seem to remember a whole lot of, what, triangle mashing? Let's run around and slash things with our sword until the magical button that does auto-combos appears. I just enjoyed KH more in general, it was simple but fun, with a good ending that went on the list of "baww" and adorable.

Alternatively, KH2 ending was a nightmare. How long was the last fight? I'm pretty sure it was multiple battles of crap and poop and went on forever. Man, I hated that. Also, the beginning was crap and poop too. The whole deal in Twilight Town or whatever with Roxas was droning and took forever/was hella boring.

@Joker: Hah, you got me. MGS ftw.

Psh, thanks for in-slutting me. I got good at Mega Man because it was one of two-four gaming options between the age of 1-5. Then I got Mega Man 2, Mario 2 and LOZ. Life was better. Then Mega Man 9 made me fail a semester of college. Thank God Mega Man 10 wasn't as good or I would probably have stopped eating.

It was a good night of smash, but relatively small (me, ngamer, QRS, and a friend of mine from Cornell).

Haven't hung out with my girlfriend in two whole days.
I feel like an absolute jerk off.
when you get back together it's going to be electric.

was it electric o.O?

I'm playing through MGS3 again.

this time: NORMAL DIFFICULTY! my first time going anything above Very Easy.
I hope I can do it with no alerts. I did that in my second playthrough and it turned out to be suck. because I had this awesome stealth camo but idiots to use it on.

Whyyyy

Whyyyy Bombsoldier, why do you play bad games? D: First BlazBlue now this.
Through all the McDonalds remimixes, Doom mods, crazy pianists, flash videos and memes, I decided that I really hated Touhou for everything it was worth. Now knowing what you just said, I'm probably going to cry myself to sleep tonight.

It was a good night of smash, but relatively small (me, ngamer, QRS, and a friend of mine from Cornell).
Don't forget a few people from Mt mercy who left after you one game(I'm going to talk to them about that). Your friend just needs to do faster attacks and less dash attack and I need to stop reflecting Yoshi's eggs :laugh:.


Hey Soran, how was the R.A.V.E?

Don't mean to double post, but I wanted to inquire about that venue up in Ames. Wondering if we could ever get that again. Would it really be open for games on Thursdays? I remember Sekou said something about that.

It'd just be nice to know in-case we want to get gatherings started. Plus I know a friend who'd proly come for MALTY BURODO who lives up there, and its just a nice place overall.

If Sekou doesn't see this I guess I'll PM him, but it'd be pretty sweet to have another place for games and whatnot.
Just wanted to make sure you saw this.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, If you guys tell me Tuesday or Wednesday, I can stop by the office and reserve the place, and we can chill there on Thursdays. I have no problem with that. Also I probably will stop by joker's place at 3:30-4 ish.

I got my car back so I could occasionally make Iowa game night so long as people show up...wait, I could play Joker for 10 hours straight probably. NVM <3 It doesn't even have to be for money, mostly because I don't think I can win...yet...

So how does next thursday for games sound to you guys and who would be willing to drive up?

Also Sekou me and Ngamer want to know if you have Chu Chu Rocket for your Dreamcast. That'd be the best!
