Keep contemplating grabbing that off Steam. X-Com collection that is.

I got that, now I have the vague feeling that I should go out to the barn and rummage around and find the saved game editor that a friend wrote for it

Currently playing: Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks. Should finish it today.

Recently acquired and beat: Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon, Final Fantasy III DS, Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story

After Zelda, I'm going to go pick up the new Ace Attorney game and play as my second favorite prosecutor. After that, I have to finally try to find Dragon Quest V. None of the stores around here had it for more than like a few days.

Question: Why?

For the track record, take a few characters from the DD series, a few more made up from god only knows warped imagination, and throw them into a SF game with horrible mechanics and balance issues.

The Video Game Vault says it so much better than I can...

Morgan Freeman.

Nh Keith David, since he did one of the voices in one of the first 2 games.

We picked up a Wii this week, along with a couple of exercise type games. Wanted a Wii Fit but of course, nobody has them in stock, and the ones I've seen on Craigslist and eBay either are missing the board, or only come with a Wii in tow...

D keeps telling me she's going to kick my a** at the games because she's been practicing and I haven't had time.

Oh lordy, I remember that turd. No, I'm talking about Dragon Quest, the RPG franchise that blows Final Fantasy away in Japan. DQV was never released in the states because Enix's US office closed down during the reign of the SNES. They couldn't keep up with Square's US domination of the RPG market. So anyway, thanks to SquareEnix's love for spewing out remakes, DQIV and V were released already and VI is due later this year, with DQIX just over the horizon.

Ah, misread, my mistake.

[Gravekeeper]

I've been trying to track down some of the DS Dragon Quests, but haven't had any luck thus far =/

[Cazzi]

Do it, just look at all those awesome features FWE lists, don't you just want to be part of that?

Well, I couldn't put it off any longer.... downloaded, installed, hid in an empty room for 4 days & the first thing I saw when I emerged? A Gecko

I'm not impressed, considering Fire Warrior was the crappest 40K game ever.

Let's see you blue bastards willingly board a genestealer infested Space hulk and see how tough you are.

Another Space Wolf here, hardest bastards around, since what we drink to get drunk, will pretty much kill any other living thing.

Heh. I'm not impressed with your taste in games, as Warhammer 40K: Fire Warrior is a good First-Person Shooter made even BETTER by the fact that it takes place in the Warhammer 40K universe!

And speaking only for myself, and I am unanimous in this, I've taken down your supposedly bad-ass Space Marines, Chaos Marines, and even a Greater Daemon of Chaos! So Genestealers on a space hulk? NO PROBLEM!

But I will say this one thing in favor of your Space Marines: At least they had the right idea for how to thoroughly remove the taint of Chaos from a world, as seen in the ending movie for Fire Warrior...

Sorry but really, as a 40k fan you should be a-fucking-shamed that you say firewarrior is a good game, seriously.

Don't make me bring the hammer of the Emperor down on you.

Don't think you're so tough, One marine took down a Carinifex with....A KNIFE, seriously, oh and try reading ciaphas cain sometimes, in which pathfinders and kroot got wtfpwned by genestealers, or Courage and Honour. No matter how good you think you are, a .75 rocket propelled, armour piercing delayed explosive bolt round is so going to make short work of you.

Oh and one grey knight...he actually amused Khorne enough that his laughter could be heard in the mortal realm. You blue bastards can't even get into the warp. So your technology is advancing at an astounding rate, yeah, Humanity has been there long before you existed, we called it the age of strife. just you wait, one day your machinations will bring you down.

Sorry kiddo, you're nowhere near close to being that good.

And you're going to be in DEEP doodoo when the God Emperor of Mankind finally succumbs and ascended to his rightful place as a fifth Chaos God.

Also showcases the awesomeness of the Imperium of Man, Wheras Tau, you may be blue, but I bet you're red on the inside, commie bastards :P Greater good my cermatie armoured arse.

If you ever see something that's like a black round thing with tentacley arms with leaf shapes on the end RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN Seriously, Wannamingos will own you badly.

I thought I was lunch when I came across a hoard of feral ghouls with about 5 reavers in there.... have they gone soft or something, didn't seem to have much of a problem dispatching those.... They usually do some damage singly!

Although good old Dogmeat was distracting them for me

[Salted Grump]

Man, I'm ancient. I remember back in Fallout 2 when you first Encounter Wannamingos (in the Old Wannamingo Mine in Redding). I then proceeded to laugh my ass off when I shot one in the crotch, and happened to 'Impact its breathing ability' Via Combat shotgun.

Then it Killed Sulik in 3 hits when he was at full health.

I reloaded, and came back when I had loaded myself out with a Bozar, and cleaned out the entire mine with it. Good times.

(For those not in the know, a Bozar is a Sniper Rifle that Fires 15 bullets at once [Literally half its magazine], with each bullet doing 20-30 points of damage. Counts as a Big Gun, though, so boost that big gun skill if you don't want Markus to have all the fun)

Currently Playing Demon's Souls (Aka; Nethack in 3D) and More Borderlands, now that the Level cap is up to 61 due to the new DLC.

There's a Fallout 3 mod that adds all the FO 1 and 2 weapons to 3. Including the Bozar <3

All I remember from Fallout 1 and 2 is repeatedly yelling "Noooo, Dogmeat!" at the screen at regular intervals. Especially when he'd charge gatling equipped super mutties and then I'd get sprayed with the bits and pieces. Gah.

Oh, that and the shotgun wedding in Fallout 2. Especially if you were playing a female character for the lesbian shotgun wedding. >.>
