Yeah, I stopped using Skype the very first time I got a random call from someone I barely knew. Fuck that noise.

I actually just got a T-shirt with a woman getting her eye poked out on it. I really like that shirt.

Making up a third option is more interesting.

Candyland or Chutes and Ladders.

^Incorrect. Knowing what I was born to do presupposes that I was born to do anything.

Quote from Kaynil

No idea it had rebooted. tat soudns pretty interesting. I also had no clue it was based on a tabletop RPG. Sounds more interesting as such.

I don't know anything about the video game, really. But the tabletop RPG might be the single most popular/well known RPG that isn't part of the extended D&D family of games. The basic conceit is that magic used to exist, but then it was gone for a long time, and now it's back. Trolls, ogres, orcs, elves, etc had all been disguising themselves as humans, and they suddenly reveal themselves. A lot of ancient rituals and superstitions now have actual magical powers. The native tribes of the Americas are suddenly filled with powerful wizards who declare war on the governments that pushed them off of their land.

The game is notorious for having complicated mechanics, for requiring a lot of meticulous planning, and for using a brick-ton of six sided dice. Here's a picture from the 1st edition book.

Flavor wise, the game has always seemed a little dumb to me. Like an ill conceived pop culture mashup. "Hey, people like fantasy, and people like cyberpunk, so lets just put them together!" But the playstyle of the game is interesting for sure.

How about storywise? Would I be able to know some more on the characxters if I play the original? Is it longer than the Starfox64?

I'm not intimately familiar with the story. But it is the same cast of characters as Starfox 64. The team is Fox, Falco, Peppy, and Slippy. Starfox 64 is more of a remake than a sequel.[/quote][/QUOTE]

Quote from Link

I liked it. I liked seeing the new Deku tree, I liked how it said the Kokiri Kids became the Koroks or whatever they where called. This game is the late late late descendant of the one I love and you see how the world has changed, and see some familiar faces that you had already met.

I mean, there's a lot of great things about the game, particularly the art style. Although the Deku Tree is something I really didn't like, personally. It falls under my complaint about NPCs being made too goofy. The original Deku Tree was dignified and wise, and he looked that way. The new one had a fat guy face with a single upturned buck tooth.

Dude, I'm a Seattleite. Anything between me and New York is hicksville as far as I'm concerned. =P

It's not an issue of how powerful the computer is. Skype is bloated. It always has been.

Ghosts can honest to goodness scare the shit out of me. But probably the imagery that I'm the most consistently afraid of is giant statues that come alive. For which I 100% blame Talos. Fuck you, Talos.

How Ameri-centric of you.

These abbreviations aren't something Kaynil just came up with. These are common terms that have been in use for 16+ years, in pretty much every Zelda community.

30. Shadowrun - Hadn't even heard of this steampunk RPG

Shadowrun isn't steampunk, it's cyberpunk. It's based off of a classic tabletop RPG set in Neo-Seattle. I've always wanted to find people to play it with.

The video games have never really drawn my interest, but I should probably try the recently kickstarted reboot of the franchise.

Quote

28. Goof Troop - Hah! Puzzle one. I think I didn't know it existed.

I have fond memories of playing this as a kid. It's shockingly good, given that it's a licensed Disney game.

Quote

25. Super Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back - I think Sardonic Pickles owns this one but I might be wrong.

This game is terrible. Play Super Star Wars or Super Return of the Jedi. SESB is fucking awful. I don't know anyone whose gotten past the second level.

Quote

23. NBA Jam - I was like "pass" until I read about being sillier than today's sport games. Count me in!

I haven't played this since I was a kid, but I remember enjoying it. Particularly when the ball caught on fire and you blew up the basket because you're such an awesome player, or something.

Quote

15. Super Castlevania IV - Curious considering is a sort of remake of the first one based on what the article says.

It's really not. I mean, it might be a remake in a narrative sense. But if that's true, the Super Mario World is a remake of Super Mario Bros 3, right?

I honestly prefer the original Castlevania over 4, but it's a tough call. The original Castlevania has the tight controls and killer gameplay. Super Castlevania 4 has that visual style that I love so much about the latter day Castlevania games.

Quote

8. Final Fantasy VI - Bucketlist

Talk about a mature game. Mature in the sense that it takes itself seriously and tackles difficult subject matter. A beautiful experience.

Quote

7. Star Fox - I wouldn't mind trying it.

As revolutionary as this game was, I really don't think it has aged well. Starfox 64 is an improvement in every respect, IMHO. There's not a lot to gain from playing the original.

Quote

6. Super Metroid - Yes. Good game. I have played it but not till the end.

Quote

5. Donkey Kong Country - Played it. Pretty cool one.

Is it weird that I've never been able to get into either of these games? I've played both, and they're certainly competent. I can acknowledge their quality. But there's just no hook for me. Nothing that makes me want to keep playing beyond the first hour or so.

Quote

1. The Legend Of Zelda: A Link To The Past - Eh... kind of overrated. Not that special...

I bought a DS XL at a garage sale about 2 years ago. It was $30.

we humans always try to find explanations for bad deeds we do

Bad deeds? What bad deeds?

I don't know what that means. Please explain.
