Nintendo. I love you. You're actually localizing Xenoblade and chances are Last Story will follow. Pandora's Tower probably won't be, but I'm not that interested in that one. I've been with you since I was 4. Pokemon Ruby and Super Mario Bros Advance on the Game Boy Advance. Not the SP, the original Advance. I've had great fun with you. Paper Mario: TTYD got me through a very unhappy part of my life. Majora's Mask got me through another tough time. Playing the Metroid Prime Trilogy was a
Hmm...I finished it up on Friday, review should be incoming soon. I'm not sure how I feel about the game overall. On one hand, there's some great characters, pretty good story overall, a couple of boss fights I really loved, and the controls are great when they work. Also, I don't think I can ever play a Zelda game without a dash button again. On the other hand, recalibrating is a fair bit too frequent, The Sky/Loftwing is iffy, I feel like it left the story left some questions unanswered, t
So it's coming in April, cool. =D Honestly, I wasn't too interested in the game until I started following Operation Rainfall, and did some research. Then I got interested. So 2012 is actually looking mildly decent for Wii now. I'll be getting Rhythm Heaven Fever and Xenoblade, and I still need to finish (read: get any farther than the first dungeon of) Okami, so....
So I finish a pretty awesome Fire Temple in Skyward Sword, which ends with an intense boss fight. Then I go and do an even MORE intense boss fight. Then there's awesome sequence of plot-related cutscenes. Then there's a brief break, and another awesome boss fight. Then you go down and fight the more intense boss AGAIN. Then the game goes and tosses an incredible pointless fetch quest in your face. MIYAAAAMOTOOOOOOO
Okay, so I have a few more things to do before I get back to Skyward Sword. Math, Science, and practicing at the piano. Why is it, then, that my brain cannot concentrate for more than 45 seconds at one time and let me get this stuff done? What's worse, I procrastinate by blogging about it on BZP. It's a vicious cycle.
Okay, SS came yesterday. Was to busy playing to blog. Here's my thoughts so far.... Opening Sequence: Relative to past games, the opening tutorial in SS is pretty easy to swallow. None of that goat herding baloney or anything. I'm a little on the fence about the bird: I'm not sure how much I like the whole "islands scattered in the sky to visit" thing. It was surprisingly quick getting the Master Sword in the game, too. Oh, but...did they REALLY have to make Kaeora Gaebora a character
I have been waiting since E3 2009 for this game. For years, I've longingly imagined a video game with one to one sword controls. And a Zelda game that does this? Far out. So my question to you, dear reader.. ARE YOU READY FOR SOME ZELDAAAAAAAAAAAAA are you? Oh, by the way, I'll be updating blog with my thoughts on the game as I play it. Don't worry, I'll mark the entries as spoilers.
So...I guess Super Meat Boy has some sort of anniversary... And this warrants...a bunch of indie games I'm interested in goin on sale simeltaneously? Well, I'm not complaining. I'm only getting the Bit.Trip games/SMB/VVVVVV games since I'm not interested in the other ones. Plus there's a game or two in there my parents probably wouldn't let me have. i.e. Half-Life 2.
So what should I do to prepare for the release of Skyward Sword? Should I... -Finish Master Quest on Ocarina of Time 3D (well, START Master Quest is more like it ) -100% REGULAR Ocarina of Time 3D (Mostly Skulltulas, a Heart Piece here and there) -Work on Sidequests in Majora's Mask -Attempt to 100% Twilight Princess -FINISH Wind Waker (I think I'm on the last Dungeon before the TriForce Ocean Fetch Quest; the dungeon with the little leafy dude) -Work on Okami (Christmas present last year,
My anticipation levels for Skyward Sword are over nine thooooousaaaaaaand right now. O__O I've been eagerly waiting for this since E3 2009....WANTWANTWANTWANTWANT. So yeah, somebody restrain me, because I'm going totally nuts right now. In unrelated news, finally got a good amount of work done on Asylum Prime 3. For my readers who also read my comics.
I'm doing Short Stories for my literature this year, and I have to say, "Unlighted Lamps" is probably the best thing I've read since Watership Down. Yes. The Watership Down. Apparently I'm a depressing person, because this is an incredibly depressing story, and I loved every minute of it. And not all stories have to have happy endings. Anyone else read this?
Since these have been all the rage for as long as I can remember. Ask away! No personal information questions, of course. And before you ask. NO I DO NOT DREAM ABOUT FARM ANIMALS Let's-a go!
So apparently Capcom is "considering" bringing Monster Hunter 3G out of Japan, but "has not reached a decision yet." I'm not sure if this excites me or worries me.
We are one week away from Super Mario 3D Land. We are two weeks from... SKYWAAAAAAAARD SWOOOOOOOOOORD And we are one month away from Mario Kart 7. That game is looking pretty awesome too. I'm mostly excited because Retro Studios was involved. Is everyone ready?
