Video Games

Recently got the two DS-Zelda titles Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks.

While I like the latter more in terms of story and for giving Zelda a more prominent spot than in the other titles, the Spirit Flute is simply the worst item ever in a Zelda game.

I just can’t figure out how to play it properly. I have never had a problem with the ocarina, wind waker, wolf howling, you name it - but this time Nintendo has messed up the instrument control scheme big time. :frowning:

Using the microphone and stylus seems nice and intuitive at first glance, but the way they implemented it just does not work for me at all.

I agree with you on the Spirit Flute, totoro. Even though I haven’t played many Zelda games I already started to hate the Flute the first time I had to do a duet with one Lokomo. Every time I had to do this I needed ages but now I’m almost at the end and after that I finall start Twilight Princess.

I’m not much of a gamer, but I do play video games once in a while. I’ve got WALL•E, Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga, Lego Indiana Jones, and Star Wars: The Clones Wars: Republic Heroes (my most recent addition) on the Xbox 360; Ratatouille, Backyard Baseball, and Kim Possible: What’s the Switch on the PS2; WALL•E on the PSP (yes, I have two different versions of the game); and Pajama Sam (on both the Wii and the PC). I had Kim Possible: Team Possible on the Game Boy, but I lost it somewhere around my place.

I forgot to mention: I also have Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Lightsaber Duels for the Wii!

My top 10 favorite games (no order) Smackdown Shut Your Mouth, Heavy Rain, Metal Gear Solid 3, Metal Gear Solid 4, Call of Duty 4, Grand Theft Auto San Andreas, Toy Story 2, Madden 07, Scarface: The World is yours, & Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

Hmm, I’m not sure if I’ve ever posted my favorite video games on here, but they are:

-Super Mario Bros. 3 (NES)
-Mother 3 (GBA)
-Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Wii)
-Mega Man 2 (NES)
-Mega Man 9 (Wii/360/PS3)
-Banjo Tooie (N64)
-Monkey Island 2 (PC)

i love video games, it’s just part of my life

The series of games i like are
Sonic the Hedgehog (yeah it’s a shock)
Super Mario
(less known) Oddworld Inhabitants
and Kingdom Hearts

:smiley:

right now i am playing Toy Story 3 because of my fandom
(I secretly sign out of Playstation when i play it)

for some reason i am embarrassed about playing it :blush:

I love Sonic The Hedgehog!

But why should you be embarrassed?!

Yeah supersonic84, you shouldn’t be embarassed about being a fan of something! My dad is a huge fan of Pixar, aand he’s not afraid to show it :smiley:

I finally started Red Dead Redemption this weekend! So far so good. The graphics are pretty awesome, and I like the variety of the missions.

Just completed the Ratchet and Clank short game, Quest for Booty, and it was pretty good! Not as good as the full length games either side of it, but still it had some new features which almost (but not quite) made up for the lack of Clank.

I got back to playing WoW again… Sigh. :stuck_out_tongue:

Uncharted games, any day every day! If you are a PS3 owner Uncharted 2 is a must in my opinion! I can talk for ages about this game but I’m not sure if someone already has I could’ve missed someone so I’m just gonna ask, anyone els loving these games? :slight_smile:

I own and have beaten both of the games, though I can’t say I’m a huge fan.

But on the topic of the PS3, are you a fan of inFamous?

oh no that’s too bad! I’m just nuts about them haha yup have tried out the first inFamous unfortunately when I downloaded the demo it downloaded in french for some reason so I couldn’t understand a squat! But it was pretty cool, am a sucker for anything comic-book-like so I enjoyed it yes! Can imagine you’re pretty excited for the sequel? :slight_smile:

I’ve never played the Uncharted games, but I’ve heard a lot of good things about them, so I might pick them up in the future. I’ve played inFamous before, it’s one of my favorite PS3 games. I loved the ending, [spoil]when you find out Kessler is actually Cole from the future.[/spoil] I’m really excited for the sequel :smiley: I like what I’ve seen from it so far.

I can’t wait for the sequel to my favourite game of all-time! The demo is coming out in 9 days time. Time to dust off that Tommy gun… :sunglasses:


[size=75]Luigi, did I tell you I’m really John Lasseter in disguise?[/size]

Incredibly. :smiley:

Same here. Except I don’t like the huge changes they made to Cole! He’s like a completely different character now.

I know! Although I like the new looking Cole better (he actually has hair now :wink:), I think the changes are a little drastic. I know it’s unlikely, and if it did happen, it would be very cliché, but I hope they find a way to [spoil]bring back Trish[/spoil]. She was a cool character, I like how she kinda [spoil]gave Cole a reason to be good[/spoil]. Oh, and I hear in the second he may have ice powers :smiley: That’d be cool, electrokinesis and cryokinesis? Nice combination.

Evil_Genius_27- The Uncharted games are all absolutely amazing. It really is like playing in an adventure movie- some of the best cutscenes in any game I’ve ever played! Beautiful scenery in the latest one, too.

I also enjoyed inFamous, though I didn’t realise a sequel was coming out sometime! How exciting.

Ahhh yaaay!!! Another Uncharted fan on the boards! I agree a 110% with what you said lizardgirl the Uncharted games are two (soon to be three) of the most beautiful games on the 7th generation consoles! :smiley:

I’m a Mario fan. :laughing: I also like the old-school Sonic the Hedgehog as well.

Here’s some of my faves:

Super Mario Sunshine - GameCube
Super Mario Galaxy (1 &2) - Wii
Mario Kart: Double Dash!! -GameCube
Luigi’s Mansion - GameCube
Super Mario Bros. 3 - SNES, I think.
Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games - Wii
I enjoyed Super Smash Bros. Brawl, but I don’t have it.
Oh! And Wii Sports Resort! :smiley:

Like I said, I absolutely love the Mario games. :stuck_out_tongue: Super Mario Sunshine has always been my favorite.
