uhh yea i ll do the scorpion thing screw sub zero and if i do him people will be mad but heck what do i care. sub zero and scorpion i should do. burn and freeze for ever. fatality?

I guess he means that he will dress up as both and do a burn/freeze fatality. Using correct english may have been a better choice though.

Maybe he found a secret tag team mode in the real life matrix. And uses both of them.

The pun was not intentional.

Meh, I just noticed it myself *shrugs*

Another great game I used to play in the arcades: Dungeon and Dragons: Shadows of Mystina (sp).

That was freaking awesome. I wouldn't mind playing online for that, if only my ping didn't suck...

Post by **TheDarkness** » Fri Jul 29, 2005 1:03 pm

be happy that it was un-intentional cause the intentional ones are usually the lame ones

Post by **Saiyah** » Fri Jul 29, 2005 1:15 pm

Sure thing!

Happy now?

---> On topic
I've gotten to play Dungeons and Dragons heard it was cool, but never got to it. I think the Mega man X series on snes was pretty tite though. Playing X3 now. Seems like only 2 bosses have weaknesses that actually work on them, the others igore them and simply rape you.

i only ever played the megaman battle network games... But then again i prefer RPG's anywayz

The Story of Thor for the sega megadrive... now that was a great game

I was sort of interested in Battle network only because of Mega man, But i'm completely uneducated on what kind of game it is. If it's like Yugi-Oh, Forget about it. If not, care to share what it was about?

BTW, RPG's are easily my favorite kind of game, Haven't seen a good one in a while, especially since I vowed never to play another mmorpg (they steal your soul!) I even stooped to playing paper mario, the thousand year door, which was pretty good actually.

Kind of sad how every Battle Network is basically the same. The first Battle Network I've played is 3, and when I played 4, I was heavily disappointed I was playing the same game twice. The cartoon sucks cock by the way.

The story of thor aka Beyond Oasis is just plane awesome.

I never give any anime that comes on saturday mornings a glance, not since the original 150 pokemon days. So I guess it's a good thing I never watched battle network.

Just beat X3 again, Sigma can be a real ass kicker, It's cool how they tried to experiment with polygons on this game, though the polygon mini bosses were lame and easy to kill, it was a good idea.
<---- (I drew zero for my avatar ... I'm thinking of changing that though)

Next retro game I should play is final fantasy tactics. Back then square made some really kick ass rpgs. I don't know if anyone noticed but square-enix's games kind of suck ass ... well story wise anyway. (thinking of ffx-2)

Post by **TheDarkness** » Fri Jul 29, 2005 5:25 pm

well ffx-2 was dissapointing... wouldn't say crap, just dissapointing...

i am gonna give a go at Vagrant Story myself..... Never finished it. To damn hard later on in the game

Post by **Saiyah** » Fri Jul 29, 2005 7:00 pm

It would have been better as a mini game or something, IMO.
Im all for girl power and what not but uhh ... It's just sad that FF's first true sequel stunk so bad. I will say I liked the battle system though, reminded me of FF tactics. (Still playing that BTW.)

Yeah, I haven't posted in forever, but this topic caught my attention, lately I've been going on a N64 rant and playng games like Perfect Dark, GoldenEye, and Ogre Battle, yes I said Ogre battle its just damn additctive. Also, does any one remember the Super Scope for the SNES it was so awsome and the Mech games that went with it were so awesome, but sadly my old Scope have been sacrificed to the endless void and hell if I could find another, emulaters for Super Scope games just don't cut it......*sigh*

Post by **Saiyah** » Sat Jul 30, 2005 6:33 pm

Yeah the super scope was pretty cool. I remember those days fondly. My favorite game was called wild guns, crazy western, was nice.

I noticed that my super scope was missing too. As much as I wanted it back in the day it's kind of sad that I never noticed it was gone.

Post by **Eldo** » Sun Jul 31, 2005 2:38 am

Ogre battle was just plain awesome for me. I loved it so much, I think I've played it 3 times.

Cybernator was another awesome mecha game. I liked the Super Robot Wars for it as well, heh.

Kick ass vagrant story is such an underrated game imo. Anybody ever played gunstar heroes for genesis back in the day ?

Fuck yeah I played gunstar heroes for the genesis. That game owned so much. Can't wait for Gunstar Heroes Advanced, looks so bad ass.

And also, I concur with ya Eldo about Ogre Battle and D&D Shadow over Mystaria. Both those games are just classics. I am glad to own both the SNES and N64 versions, I still need the PSone version and Tactics Ogre though.
