Games

You people play games right? There must be a few hardcore gamers around here.

I'm into SNES and Genesis emulation, N64, Gamecube, XBox, a little Gameboy and, oh yes, PC games.

yup yup

I currently own Gamecube, Dreamcast, and Gameboy Pocket. Used to have an N64, but sold it last year to get DC, and a couple of years ago I gave my old NES to my little cousin. Whenever I go there, we play co-op Super Mario Brothers 3, my all time favorite Mario game. I also like PC gaming.

I currently own Star Wars: Rougue Squadron 2, Wave Race:Blue Storm, and Super Smash Bros Melee for Gamecube...nothing out for a couple of months, but I may get Eternal Darkness or Star Fox when they come out in June. And I also can't wait for Animal Forest +, Mario Sunshine, Metroid, as well as some others coming out in fall. Also, I'll definately be getting the new Mario Kart game whenever it comes out. I'm also excited about E3 this May...Nintendo is gonna steal the show with all the big franchises that will be present.

I don't have the time now, but I used to be quite the junkie. I was enraptured most recently by Super Smash Brothers on the N64... countless hours of fun.

Haven't had much to do with the newer systems or PC stuff recently... had fun with Mario RPG on an SNES emulator... (great game).

Anyway, here's my list in no particular order:

SSB (N64, previously mentioned)
Legend of Zelda OOT and LTTP (N64 and SNES)
Starcraft (PC)
Dark Forces 2: Jedi Knight (PC; bactame, eriamjh)
Mario Kart (N64 and SNES)
Double Dragon II (NES)
Contra (NES)

And, of course, all the Mario games... an integral part of my childhood, among many others. By the way, Wayfarer, is "ub3rn355" a reference to Star Wars, i.e., Uber Jedi? Also, look here: http://www.tolkientrail.com/entmoot/...&threadid=3496

Tell me if you're content with how I portrayed you... I'm not sure whether or not you've read it yet.

Well, I'm at college right now and don't have the time or the game at the moment... maybe when I go home, in a few months. No hacks. My brother has one where he can turn into any object that he walks up to and hits. He's become a walking backpack before. Very fun to watch, but I'd hate to play against him, the sinister fiend.

"Dibs on his property" is my favorite. Would you not say that?

that's really bad... yet strangely humorous.

better yet is...

WY: *gasps* You're coming up with a MASTERFUL PLAN!!!
*Everyone gasps and a sudden silence falls*
Hugo: Oh, goody! I love masterful plans!
But I have to say my favorite is:

Quote:
Wayfarer: Give up, mortal! Surrender your pecuniary assets to me else I seize them by force!
Bropous: Do you always have to talk like that?
Wayfarer: Buck over da dough, fool, 'fore I PK yo' little shiz.
Bropous: Okay, that's even worse.

That thread makes me laugh every time, mostly at my parts... the reason I like "Dibs on his property" best is the totally unanimous reaction I made you have. I faint, you guys decide how my property and money should be distributed. Quite humorous. I'm not sure it's going to go much further now, though.

Elvet, if you like those non shooter puzzle games, try out Escape From Monkey Island...it's a great and very humorous game made by LucasArts.
