also, what the FUCK, adadadad?!
3 months 17 days ago on QOTW: What's your favorite N64 game of all time?
well, excluding those 2 doesnt make this any easier. I'm really circling the drain at starfox 64 though. followed by banjo kazooie and pilotwings.
3 months 24 days ago on QOTW: What once-beloved game do you now hate?
I'll say fallout 3. It wasn't really beloved but its the only game that qualifies for this question since i don't really hate any games i used to love. I went through it (mostly story a few side quests, really just scratched the surface) and was right at the end of the story and my friend erased my save. This has since caused me to really just lose all interest completely because i wasn't that captivated by it to begin with. its an excellent game, but i guess im more of a jrpg fan haha.
4 months 1 day ago on QOTW: What are your top 5 games of all time?
The best i can do without a room filled with a designated team of people in white coats is:

1)FF7
2)FF5
3)Star Ocean 2
4)Lunar
5)HL2
4 months 10 days ago on QOTW: What was the first movie game that made you hate movie games?
I have never really hated any movie games from experience, just avoided them because i knew i should. However, I did once acquire the non arcade version of T2 for genesis and that game was damn terrible.
4 months 22 days ago on QOTW: What is your all-time favorite console?
It's gotta be Ps1. I had an atari 2600 followed by an NES to a genesis but PS1 is where it really came together and solidified me as a gamer. it was the first system that made me start paying attention to gaming and buying my own games. My dad bought it for me because my parents had just gotten divorced and i needed something to do at his place, i never asked for it. it could have just as easily been an N64 and i would be a completely different person.
5 months 5 hours ago on QOTW: What dead company or franchise do you miss the most?
As far as dead franchises go, i really would kill to get another Zone of the Enders and a new Musashi title. Twisted Metal too but i hear that's in the works. I would love to get Working Designs back and a true, proper Squaresoft. Square and Enix were so much better when they were separate. As good as FF13 looks like its going to be i miss Sakaguchi and the original Final Fantasy team.
5 months 6 days ago on QOTW: What overused gameplay element are you terribly sick of?
Bullet-time/heightened reflex/blind rage mode.
it always seems like cheating. whenever i have the option of using bullet time i use it to death and take the fun out of it for myself.
5 months 28 days ago on QOTW: What was your favorite E3 2009 moment?
I loved the uncharted 2 demo along with God of war 3 and FF14. i do hope however, that ff14 isn't full on MMO like ff11. i would like to have seen more gt5 stuff and an effing twisted metal ps3 demo, even a trailer would have been fine.
6 months 3 days ago on QOTW: What big reveal do you most want to see at E3?
I probably wouldn't have picked this originally but with all of the kojima speculation in the air i realize i would really love to see a fantastic ps3 zone of the enders. also the old standby -- ps3 FF7 remake. also ps3 twisted metal. PS3 price drop too, but thats just so i can stop being the only person i know that has one.
6 months 9 days ago on QOTW: What game are you most ashamed you never beat?
for me its chrono trigger and ff9. i love chrono trigger, ive played through it like 8 times but everytime i get to the end to fight lavos i just lose to him a few times and give up or stop playing before i fight him. I made it to the very last fight in FF9 but i just never completed it. i Didn't even fight him once, i might have won, who knows.
6 months 16 days ago on QOTW: What game do you always go back to?
the top 3 games i always end up going back to are counter-strike, warcraf 3 and final fantasy 7. i used to be really good at CS and WC3. i played in CS tourneys with clans on our own servers and stuff. i was on the 4v4 AT ladder in WC3 too, but now all i play is custom games. I always start new games in FF7 but usually quit again shortly after the end of disc 1. its not that i dont like disc 2 (its actually my favorite) it just happens that way.
7 months 2 hours ago on QOTW: What was the first game you remember pre-ordering?
the first game i pre-ordered was FF8. i had officially played the balls right off of FF7 (300+ hours) and i figured if 8 was even half as good i needed it in my life with no time wasted. even though i only went through 8 once (100% complete though) i still loved it and ended up also pre-ordering 9 and chrono cross and ff10 later. I also bought an FF9 shirt from the squaresoft store that ended up being an XXL (which didnt really work out very well for me at 120lb in 8th grade). i tried to wear it anyway with shirts under it because i liked it so much but i think i only got about 2 wears out of it before i decided it was just too damn ridiculous.

i really wish i knew more than 0 people who have a psp, i would really love to play this with a group on a regular basis, it looks like the way to go.

man, spectacular article. that silver surfer track blew me away, i cant believe that was NES. also, i have never played the original MGS but i can't believe how cinematic that was, especially for PS1, really impressive stuff.

I loved the touch buttons too, but I won't be heartbroken. Btw, for anyone needing HDMI cables, I'd just like to shill for monoprice. If you buy a MonsterCable for anything, you deserve ridicule.
3 months 13 days ago on The Top 7... games that need prequels
An FF4 prequel detailing Cecil's descent into evil henchman reminds me of an book I bought years ago called Treachery and Treason. It was a collection of short stories where the bad guy won and the good guy usually got the pointy end. It was great. I wish more people would realize that the good guys don't always make it, and there are definitely good stories to be told there.
4 months 17 days ago on Golden Sun: an introduction
Yes. VERY yes.
5 months 27 days ago on QOTW: What was your favorite E3 2009 moment?
Favorite moments:
-Golden Sun DS announcement out of left field.
-Watching M$ and Sony completely shame Nintendo's motion controls (which seems to be the one thing keeping them going at the moment).
-Hearing/reading the massive amounts of content posted up by the GR crew over the past couple days. Immense task, fellas. Fucking immense.

Defguru7777: A sequel to Golden Sun please?????

OHSHITseconded.
6 months 3 days ago on QOTW: What big reveal do you most want to see at E3?
PS3 price drop; PSP redesign somethingorother; a decent Sonic game; Nintendo to announce SOME SORT OF PROPER SYSTEM (please Nintendo, stop twisting the knife in our collective gaming heart)

Also, I think a fancy remake/update of the Mutant League games would be hilarious.
8 months 7 days ago on The Top 7… hated habits of the mainstream media
I hope I wasn't the only one who shouted a little cheer when Jack Thompson was disbarred. It should be a day celebrated annually by gamers everywhere. In case you weren't aware, on Sept. 25th, 2008, Thompson was permanently disbarred for consistent misconduct and ordered to pay $43.6k and change to the Florida Supreme Court.
9 months 11 days ago on Why do licensed kiddie games suck?
Some of my fondest memories of gaming as a kid were playing Aladdin and Lion King on the Genesis. I'm not sure what I'd think of them today, but I'm inclined to say they'd still hold up. *nostalgic sigh*
