  1. My favorite RPG is, strangely enough, Lufia: The Legend Returns for GameBoy Color. It wasn't that popular of a game methinks, but I've still had a lot of fun with it. The plot is pretty good, similar to it's predecessors. The dialogue isn't that great, but I don't mind that so much. It's a relatively challenging game the first time through, when you're still getting used to everything. The hardest part of the game would have to be a tie between when you fight the Egg Dragon, and when you go through all 200 levels of the Ancient Cave and fight the boss at the end. There's a lot of characters to choose from, 12 in all, and you can keep 9 in battle at one time. Technically, you can only have 3 fight each turn. The characters don't have much depth to them, most of them fit a certain stereotype. On top of that, some of them aren't even worth using in battle. So, why do I like this game then? Well, there are quite a few cool battling techniques in the game, that you can learn using Ancient Texts. Most of them are, admittedly, not worth learning sometimes, but there are some really cool ones, like I said. Since there are so many characters to choose from, you can have whole different strategies whenever you replay it. Plus, the Ancient Cave sidequest is quite challenging, and I like the song they play in the ending credits of the game. ~.^ Maybe to most people, this was a mediocre game, but I still replay it quite often.
  2. I don't know if this could be considered an easter egg, but I always thought this one thing in Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time was cool. It's when you go to that garden where you first meet Zelda. If you look in the windows on the right, you can see paintings of Mario and Yoshi, I think. It's been awhile since I've seen that, so I can't quite remember...
  3. [quote name='Zeta']The cutscenes look like crap to me. Jaggy edges, dodgy textures, not what I was expecting from a game that took so long to make. I don't like the multiplayer on it either. Don't know why, it just doesn't tickle me the right way. Border line below average game for me.[/quote] Me and my brother still can't believe they let something like that slip either. It's really bad. I mean, shouldn't they have taken just a little more time to fix it? Whatever... In my opinion, the gameplay in Halo and Halo 2 is good, even if the storyline is weak. I'm not that good a player (although I'm getting better!), but I still have a lot of fun. It helps that I always play cooperative with my brother. Eheh... Multiplayer is so very fun with these games. I love it so much, it's just a blast.

    Pok

    [quote name='Desbreko][color=#4B0082']But the game I keep hoping they'll make a sequel to is Pokémon Trading Card Game for Game Boy. It was a lot of fun being able to actually use all the rare cards and have free reign for building decks, without having to spend hundreds of dollars on cards. Plus, it let me play the TCG any time I wanted, rather than almost never because only a couple of my friends also had cards. I probably wouldn't hesitate to buy a sequel, were one to be made.[/color][/quote] Unfortunately, I never played that game, although my brother and my sister both have it. And they did like it. My sister doesn't play many video games, and she played that one at least three times through. I feel like I've missed out on something great. -__-; Well, if there ever is a sequel, I'll most likely get it as well.

    Pok

    [quote name='Semjaza Azazel']My personal favorite game in the series is Pokemon Snap. I don't care what people say about that game, I thought it was fun.[/quote] Ah yes! Pokemon Snap, how could I have forgotten about it? That was a very fun game. I wish they had made a sequel or something like that to the game.
  6. I've only seen pictures of the Bleach anime, so I can't say anything about that yet. I have read the manga though. Only up to volume four, but still. It's a very cool series. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone who reads manga. There's lots of action and drama, like what QuincyArcher said. The characters are very well developed. It's just plain cool! If you haven't gotten the manga yet, go now! And buy it!
  7. Shojo Beat, huh? Sounds interesting. I'm sure it'll be a success. Unfortunately, I've never heard of those series. Rather, I don't know what any of those are about, because I do remember hearing something about Zettai Kareshi.

    Pok

    I think the Pokemon series continues to be entertaining, even if it is repetitive. I've been "involved" in the series since Pokemon Yellow. At the time, I was obsessed with Pokemon, like every other kid. I watched the show, I played the games. Heck, I bought Pokemon Pinball shortly after getting Yellow. It was a most wonderful time, that it was. And then, when Pokemon Gold and Silver came out, I had a blast with that, too. It was exciting to be playing in a whole different region with new Pokemon. Not only that, but new options too. I still think my Gold team (Meganium, Xatu, Lanturn, Piloswine, Ho-oh, Umbreon) is the best one I've had out of all the games. Then, there was Pokemon Crystal. A game where you could [i]finally[/i] be a girl! Oh, how I had waited for such a game to come out! No more having to play a guy with the name "ABBY"! This was a cool game as well, and not just because of the fact that you could play as a girl. There was also a slightly different storyline from that of Gold and Silver, which I thought was neat. After that, twas Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire's turn. Not much to say about this, really. Sure, there were a few new gadgets and all, but by the time the games were released, it was about the same thing as the others. Still, I played through it and had fun. Still have to finish it, actually. Finally, Pokemon LeafGreen and FireRed were introduced. Finally, you could go back to the old days of Kanto, fighting against the old gym leaders and such, along with updated graphics and a new islands area. The thought was exciting. I liked playing through the old storyline again. Unfortunately, as soon as I was done with that, I lost interest. I'm at the point where I apparently "need" to train all my Pokemon and evolve them in order to get as many Pokedex entries as possible. Whatever. Anywho, I guess you could say I'm still a fan of the series. Heh, I even went to that "Pokemon Rocks America" event in Seattle (which was so cool!). I'll most likely continue to play the games, because they're still good RPGs for the Game Boy.
  9. I've read the first four volumes, and it is very funny and entertaining. It's a bit too shoujo for my tastes. When watching the anime, I thought that too. XP Whatever, tis still worth reading. Besides, Tasuki's in it, and that makes me happy. :laugh:
  10. (Meh, I'm new, so I wouldn't know. XP Sorry.) I noticed recently that I tend to like bishounen that are... well, gay in a way. It'd be more accurate if I said ones that don't really like girls. Umm, yeah.
  11. I'm inclined to say manga, mainly because it's cheaper than anime for me. But, anime is what led me to start buying manga, so both are good I suppose. What I've noticed people tend to say in this topic is that anime's good because it's easier to understand what's going on; and when it comes to manga, the story is better because it's exactly like the creator wanted it. I really can't pick just one right now...
  12. Holy cow! This is the kind of info I've been dreamin' about! Now I know when the anime comes! Thank you! Heh, the animation looks very nice, too. Not very different from the manga at all, which is good. Of course, that's only based off of a few pictures, but still.
  13. It's hard to choose just one, or even three, because there are so many good animes out there. But, at the moment, tis .hack//sign for me. When I first saw it, it was so different from other animes I had seen, and even though it was confusing, I fell in love with it. That, and the music is very good.
