Dragon Quest IX and other stuff

Been awhile. :) I've been playing Dragon Quest IX for about 50 something hours. It's been really awesome. It's about as old school as you can get with a full-release video game these days. I love how light-hearted the story is and how corny the puns are. It's really great.

Another game I played pretty recently is the Mega Man Zero Collection. It was pretty awesome, for what it was. Just straight ports of the GBA Mega Man Zero games all on one DS cartridge.

I'm trying to save up money for a new laptop, because: (a) Mine has a busted screen and it has to function as a desktop and (b) I want one that can play more recent games. I'd love to be able to play Oblivion with Morrowind like gameplay. I'd also like to play Morrowind with MGE for once.

That's about it for now. I'll try to update more, if I feel like it.

Mega Man 10 and things!

So I got Mega Man 10 the day it was released.

It was pretty damn fun, but I don't know if I like it as much as Mega Man 9. The music was really awesome, but 9 was better. The bosses were cool, but 9 was better in that regard too. The bosses in 10 were much harder though, and actually reacted intelligently sometimes. The stages were easier in this one, but the Wily stages were like 5 times as hard. :\

There's an Easy mode, but I won't play that, because I'm not a lamer. :p There's also Protoman mode, but I'm not really a fan of playing as him. He takes too much damage and his charge buster sucks. Now, when Bass is released, you can bet your ass I'll download him.

Overall, I liked it a lot, but it wasn't mindblowing. It definitely isn't my favorite Mega Man game.

In other news, I got Arceus in Pokemon Pearl, filling my Pokedex to completion! I am now the proud owner of a full Pokedex! It's almost depressing in a way, because I feel there's not much left to do in the game, but that's wrong, because I still have those dumb contests to do. I'll eventually get a perfect trainer card, but that'll wait til way after HG/SS, which, by the way, comes out NEXT WEEK FROM TODAY. Oh man, I am SO stoked. I bought Emerald the other day in preparation for it. I can't wait.

Other than that, not much news. I'll hopefully be going to college this Fall, and if the FAFSA is any indication, I'll be getting a lot for a community college. So I can get a new computer! :D

That's all for today, my lovelies.

Oh look, another huge gap.

Lots and lots of games were played. Most were happy. Then, happiness became anxiety, as MEGA MAN FUCKING 10 IS ONLY A FEW DAYS AWAY! AAAAAHHHHH! Ahem, anyway, yes, that's what I've got my mind set on. I can't wait for it. Soon after, Pokemon Heart Gold and Soul Silver come out, and I've already got SS pre-ordered. Yet another Pokemon game I can get 492 Pokemon in! e_e Stupid Arceus. I need one. I missed the TRU event last year and I've been kicking myself because of it. Why did I have to be sick? ._.

Anyway, you can tell that I'm excited. I played a gratuitous amount of Fallout 3. I rank that up there close to Morrowind now in awesomeness. I'd probably play more of it, but I need Operation Anchorage and Mothership Zeta, that and the character I'm playing as has kinda gotten boring. I think when I get Mothership Zeta, I'll start an Energy Weapons character. I already beat the game on Normal with a Small Guns dude, I've got an Unarmed chick on Hard, so I guess next will be Energy Weapons on Very Hard. HARDCORE GODDAMNIT.

Yay, now you can wait for yet more gaps between posts! Ciao~
