Yes, I can't stand Zelda on the Wii... far too childish and irritating. Just though you might be in ze mood.Zelda on the Wii and I have a love/hate thing going on, it has a few nice bits here and there and two or three genuinely satisfying parts but overall it's very easy and (sorry to put it so bluntly) boring. I have fonder memories of older Zelda titles (WW, LttP and MM stand out immediately) and having played Mario Galaxy to death a short while ago (100% with Mario and Luigi
) I'm still a little jaded on the little Italian guy.
I'll dig around when all the pre-Santa cleaning is done.
Paper Mario is a cool game. 2d yet 3d, but mostly 2d. Kinda. Awesome.
I bought so so many games today! I went into Game looking for Red Dead Redemption as my xmas entertainment, but they didn't have it. Checked HMV... wow... now, they didn't have RDR either, but they did have looooads of legendary games for like €15 new! Assassins Creed 2, Bioshock 2, MK vs DC and more, all in my mitts, plus a load of dvds and I still didn't break the €100 mark! Wuhahahahah! Joy!
Game and its no Irish website can go **** themselves!0 -
Don't have Super Paper Mario but I do have Paper Mario 2 which is superb (though I finished up my 100% save a month ago while waiting for mid-point project assessmentYes, I can't stand Zelda on the Wii... far too childish and irritating. Just though you might be in ze mood.

HMV still have the power to shock with their prices every now and then, glad to hear you were on the benefiting end this Christmas

Yeah, I nearly just went for whatever was on offer in Game due to the short queues... but the lack of selection etc, pft, they didn't deserve my custom.
Paper Mario 1 is worth a look. Should be super cheap 0 -

Good job that you did, Game at Christmas can be a disillusioning business.
I still have mental scars from Paper Mario 1 (and Super Mario RPG for that matter), best left alone this festive season. Did a bit of a dig earlier on and have a few options for after Christmas dinner and my annual Christmas watching of Die Hard.
Ooh, Wikipedia tells me Mario Party 2 came out today on Virtual Console, *scrambles*0 -

Well, I can safely say that Assassin's Creed 2 is an awesome game. I feel bad for all the other games I got who are being unplayed. Still can't believe they were all going so cheap! Gah! Joy of having a week of non-stop xbox! Woop!
Got AC 2 and 3. Also got Black OPs. So much gaming, so little time

That's in Soul Calibur 2? That's bizarre! I always held Soul Calibur/Soul Blade up as one of the shining examples of how to make an excellent 3d beat-em-up, without resorting to DOA's tricks. Hilarious option to include though.
Yeah, I was 17 at the time so it had that "tee-hee" titillation about it as well (so to speak).
Bought Mario Party 2 on the Virtual Console as my homebrew legitimate copy is on the fritz. Top-notch game for four people to kill an hour on.
Bought this as well;
I have a thing for chiptunes, and Anamanaguchi, so it's the current gem on my Wii.0 -
Have strong urge to play Evil Dead: Fistful of Boomstick again.
Haven't actually played my playstation2 in....3 years or something :eek::eek::eek::eek:
Brother using it these days as a dvd player basically. Never get peace to play games as the Mother always about and nagging saying "Ya shouldn't be playing that look at ye going mad at the telly it's bad for your blood pressure!"
:D:D
Still have loads of games to even finish yet. Will get round to it this year :pac:
Wouldn't mind getting a Wii.
Wanna kinda play old style games retro looking ones.0 -

Hah! My Dad came into my room to check on me the other night because I was cursing at the tv so much. Just goes to show how immersive MK vs DC is. Next I need a racing car came that makes me lean as I steer... although Mario Kart does encourage such actions anyway... and is awesome... and has a black steering wheel... urge to buy increasing... bank balance freaking... nnnnnnnaaaaaaaah!0 -

All great! Is the new AvP any use? I only played the original and it seemed way ahead of its time.spoonbadger wrote: »Metal gear solid series
Morrowind
AvP series, especially AvP1 played in the dark at 3am. (rubber pants optional)
Max Payne series
Half life series
These are games that will make a man of you :eek:
Ah, I'm in Mac-land and refuse to set up bootcamp, so no PC fun for me. Xbox though... I'm all about the xboxIt's Diablo, only sci fi and a first person shooter, guns guns guns! over 1 billion guns apparently!
Its great craic, its designed as a 4 player co op loot hunting. you can get the basic game for cheap enough on steam, or pay more for all the optional extra expansions, including a zombie island expansion! though i never bothered with them. 0 -

I played Morrowind but the combat system is absolute shít. it's no good at all, and i gave up on it for that. it's too hard to attack with a sword or axe.spoonbadger wrote: »Metal gear solid series

Play Max Payne... now! Gah! The amazingness of it probably won't even be there anymore because it was an innovator of bullet time etc, now every other game goes on with bullet time.Piffle, can quickscope someone from miles away on CoD with a joypad :pac:
I was waiting for someone to say what I felt0 -
