What Are You Playing This Weekend?

With my busy schedule on Saturday and the Superbowl on Sunday it looks like I'll be playing nothing but GBA stuff this weekend.





 
Arcade:

-Hokuto No Ken
-Tekken 5: Dark Ressurection
-Samurai Spirits Tenkaichi Kenkakuden
-The King Of Fighters XI

Home:

-Dead Or Alive 4 (Xbox 360)
-Street Fighter Zero 3 Double Upper (PSP)
-Bleach DS (DS)
-Bioahazard Deadly Silence (DS)
-Halo 2 (Xbox)

Probably mostly Xbox 360 stuff this weekend. I picked up Kameo on thursday and just downloaded Marble Blast Ultra, although I also need to get back to Shin Onimusha and SS Tenkaichi on the PS2. Haven't played Tekken 5 in a while, but I want to start playing it in the arcade, so I might throw that in to get some practice with Asuka.

Well at least someone is playing it. I don't understand why it's taking over a month to bring it to the US when there's barely anything to translate.

Good choice with Asuka! She's one of my main characters.
 
Anyanka, maybe it's taking a while because of the card system? Are they going to bother with that for the U.S. arcades?

Who DOESNT pick Asuka, seriously.

Actually I never see anyone in the arcade usng her, oddly enough. I doubt they crippled her in DR, so I don't know why that is.

Thinking of switching to the new female character, though...she seems pretty effective. Same with Dragonov.
 
Jesus Christ Kameo is a big fucking game. I've been riding that horse through that valley and exploring caves and huts robbing people of their cash right now.:lol

We have the cards in the US. We just can't use cell phones to buy items. It's possible they are waiting untill they are absolutely sure the game is finished and bug free before bringing it here. There's already been an updated version B of DR in Japan.

From what I've seen Asuka wasn't weakend at all.
 
I started three DS games today: Kirby Canvas Curse, Polarium, and Feel the Magic. They're cute, but having tried them once each, honestly, I have no desire whatsoever to continue. I'll probably trade them in to pay off Grandia III. :(

:lol :lol good shit. Sadly, I've yet to start reading my copy of:

I have owned this trilogy of books for almost two years now. Finally committed to reading them the beginning of last week. Speaking of which... break's over.
 
Just got back from a gathering at a friend's house. We brought out the GameCube and played:

(couldn't find a Nintendo Puzzle Collection screenshot)


Then a little bit of the following on my Xbox:

Oh, and some Call of Cthulhu on the side.
 
traded in some stuff (including two SPs) for a Micro, Harmony of Dissonance, and Metal Slug Advance. dpad and buttons are nice, but its a little too small in my hands and the triggers will take some getting used to. Better for the action games but the SP+ still beats it for the rpgs.

Tried out:
Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance
Metal Slug Advance
Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow
Advance Guardian Heroes
Gunstar Super Heroes
Final Fantasy IV
Ninja 5-0

Probably play them all a lot more tomorrow. Gba fuckin rox.
 
Scratch part of what I said before:
I rented CoD2 (Blockbuster FINALLY has 360 rentals), sold PDZ, and bought DMC3: SE. So I've been playing CoD 2 and DMC3:SE. And a little RR6.
 
Street Fighter Alpha - MAME (Ooh, naughty boy!)
Street Fighter Alpha 3 - PSX
Street Fighter Collection 2 - PSX
Street Fighter Alpha 3 - DC
Capcom Classics Collection - PS2
Street Fighter 2: Special Champion Edition TV Game
Street Fighter Zero 3 Double Upper - PSP

Are ya sensing a theme here? It's been a VERY Street Fighter-y weekend in the mossy household.

Incidentally, I've once again rekindled my love for the original Street Fighter Alpha. Oh the memories of the countless days spent playing it on my Saturn. Yeah, yeah, there aren't enough backgrounds, but damnit, the gameplay isn't all complex higgeldy piggeldy. (Not to say I'm so crazy that I can't admit that SFZ2 and 3 are vastly superior, since 2 was 10 kinds of cool and 3 added more charas and the guard crush)

And, I swear to God, the classic SF2's in the PSX Collection are better than the ones in the PS2 Capcom Classics. I know they used the same code, but on the PSX the graphics aren't filtered or in need of a manual re-size.
 
Advance Wars
We Love Katamari
Banjo-Kazooie

Got a lot of travel coming up, so I'll probably be switching over to the DS/GBA to finish some games that have been crying out for attention for 2-3 years.
 
I made a long gaming session this weekend.

Prince Of Persia: The Two Thrones : One of the best action adventures I ever played. It looks beautyful, plays fantastic and is even better than PoP:WW (which was better than PoP:SoT)
Perfect Dark Best Ego-Shooter ever. btw: PD>GE
Zelda: Majoras Mask Best Zelda ever and without question one of the best games of all time.
Donkey Kong Country 2 Best DK game!
Super Metroid 2D gaming can't get any better than this!
 
I have been hooked to GT4 for nearly 3 entire weeks. Hooked the driving wheel and playing with a 32" set is like playing a real car...

I have both ICO and GOW waiting...but GT4 is too good :) :) :)
 
Nothing but GC for now. My PS2 crashed and burned on me again. I bought the slim model last march and it stopped working around september. They sent me another one and now this one messed up about two weeks ago. Luckily it fucked up now before my one year warranty would end. :lol Fucking sony. Enough rambling.

Finally beat that bastard Samurai Goroh in story mode on very hard. Had this game for a while but played it on and off because it's hardcore. Looks oh so lovely in 480P and widescreen. :D

This game has the ugliest main character of all the pokemon games. What the hell were they thinking. The game is fun though. I'm really enjoying myself and the 3d battles are somewhat slow but everything is smooth. It starts off slow as hell, but in 10 hours or so it really picks up. Addicting.

It's been about a year since I've last touched it. Wow. This game rocks hard today as it did a year ago. That's all there is to say.

And a little nostalgia/old school to the mix. Playing this with the hori controller. :D


Bah, my semester starts tomorrow :/ First class at 7 am. Booooooooooooooooo
