I've been playing the Dragon Quesst like hell lately... buying all the ones for DS. Old school.... my first game was Dragon Warrior for NES, been a fan of the series since.


Yup, I just busted out my PS1 about a week ago and started playing Final Fantasy VII again.


I need to buy Final Fantasy IX again... probably my favorite of the series. VII, X and XII were all good too though.

Don't know if this counts, but has anyone played any of the older Fallout games? Fallout 2 is pretty epic if you're into that sort of game.

In the WCF I eliminated Portland on the road with Martell getting his revenge.
8min quarters - 67pts 3rbs 23-40 fg 16-24 3pt

Before that game he was 14-45 3pt in 6 playoff games.

Next I get to take on the Heat in the Finals. Their starting lineup is Chalmers/Wade/Lebron/Bosh/Curry haha. Time for Beasley light to up Lebron.

In My Player it's year two and I'm on the wolves. We got this rookie, Timmy Gilmore.... I LOVE This kid!

H'es 6'10" 267 PF. 80 overall rating. He has a fantastic mid-range jumper, dunks the ball under the basket, and a sweet turnaround post shot. A pass to him is basically an assist. Love got injured and I was worried, Timmy was already hurt when I got on the team but his numbers were impressive so I looked forward to playing with him. About a week after Love went down, Timmy came back and go the start and now I hope Love comes off the bench because this guys is WAY better.

I no longer feel like I have to carry the entire offense. Timmy and I are two towers that destroying every front court we come across. I see championship rings in our future for sure.

(Haha, looking at the player history, looks like the suns drafted him at 6 but traded him to the wolves because I requested Wes Johnson. I made that request near the deadline. After that I asked for a trade again so they traded a future all-star PF to make me happy yet they had to trade me to Minnesota a month later. There fans have to be pissed!)

The DS is certainly going out with a bang.

Anyone getting B/W?

I plan on getting White sometime Tuesday. Are you getting Black or White?

Are they still going to make non3d ds games? Or is that what you meant by going out with a bang?

I think I'll be getting black, for no other reason than that I have a black DS.

And well, the 3DS is coming out in a month or so. So while the DS will continue to have games released for it over the next year or so it's going to start getting phased out. I think that's a pretty strong lineup for the next month or so.

Don't want to tell you info you don't already know, but just in case you don't, 3DS is a full blown new system a la PS1-->PS2. Much more powerful, more features, etc.

I'm waiting for the PSP2 [NGP- "Next Generation Portable"] Supposed to have "PS3" quality graphics but we'll see about that.

That new PSP looks epic. I hated how the old one only had the one joystick.

That touch pad on the back looks like a total gimmick though.

I'm getting the white version since it has the white forest.

I don't know a whole lot about the 3ds. Haven't looked too much into it after I convinced myself into getting the xl 2 months before the 3ds comes out haha.

*What starter are you going to use?

15 years old just a couple of days ago. Not kidding, every release has been an improvement. The game is as deep as the grand canyon.
