If you like RTSs at all, Starcraft is absolutely required. It's easily among the best (if not the best) out there, with incredibly balanced races, especially for how unique each is... It isn't without reason that there was so much hype surrounding the announcement of a sequel about a week ago.

It is pretty good, at least in my opinion. Whether or not you'd like it too would depend on how much you like puzzle games like it (I hear it's very similar to Bejeweled). I'll switch back out to Pokemon again before too long, but for now, I'm still busy on the Puzzle Quest storyline. Or I would be,...

Wow... So far I've only gotten as far as beating the first gym. But then, I finally found a store that had Puzzle Quest in stock a couple weeks ago, and it's been occupying my DS ever since...

Say, while we're at it, anyone wanna start a group in the game? That's another thing I'd like to see the effects of...

See you all eventually then!

Actually, if you don't want to use the DS's main mic, (I dunno yet how well it'll pick up your voice) I beleive there is (or will soon be) a wireless headset attachment you can get...

Orange League? I barely ever followed the show. In any case, each "generation" of Pokemon games introduces new ones (Red/Blue/Yellow(/LeafGreen/FireRed), Gold/Silver/Crystal, Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald, and now Diamond/Pearl), including all new starter pokemon. Seeing as how the games are what ...

I chose Bulbasaur in Blue, and Charander in Leaf Green. I was divided between Piplup (water) and Turtwig (Grass) for this version, but I figured I'd rather have my ally having my secondary choice than my Rival, so I ended up picking grass, even though the final evolution of Piplup looks slightly coo...

And between school and work, I haven't had much time either, :lol  I'm a little further in, but just barely (cought the few pokemon from the first zone, and got the Poketch). That said, it should make the pacing just about right for us to trade each iteration of the exclusive Pokemon. And just wonde...

Awesome, I got Diamond! Wanna trade for improved pokedex completion?

Does anyone else here play pokemon? I dunno if Diamond/Pearl are out yet in the UK, or when the release date is(/was) there, but I thought I'd check anyway to see if there's anyone here I can try the WiFi trading with for it...

Dude... it's just a games console. Why would you let something like that get to you? I applaud the PS3 for selling so well and beating the Wii, but the only reason that is is because the PS3 was overstocked. There was such a high demand for the Wii that Nintendo couldn't ship enough to Europe (amon...

and among the highly acclaimed games the gamecube had I can mention: Metroid Prime, Wind Waker, RE4, Metroid Prime 2, Paper Mario. Four of which are first party Nintendo titles, which I would lump in with brand loyalty. Yeah, GC did have some standout titles, but most of them were from the big N, a...

Brand loyalty pretty much single handedly sold the gamecube... Let's see how well Sony does now that it's been out there 10 years, since it lacks acheivement points and true motion control, and even rumble, and has arguably equal graphics to the 360. Pretty much the only thing the PS3 has going for ...

Because of the virtual console? Although if you aren't too big on that, you're right that there isn't much pint to connecting online at this point (if you care at all about the web browser, that may be a reason, as it'll be free to everyone who downloaded that beta version...)

K, I added, you. Once the systems recognize each other, you should start getting various Miis heading in...

A second feature has finally been added to Wii ware in the shop channel; The "Everybody Votes Channel"! It's pretty cool. You can register" one or more of your Miis to vote, and it even keeps track of what a Mii voted for, what it predicted to win, as well as how closely it matches th...

An estimated 300,000 PS3s for UK alone!! In somewhat related news, in America, the PS3 is already available for walk-in purchases at many retailers. The Wii remains sold out just about everywhere, and even with the high supply, there are still lines outside stores to get it every time it's shipped....

Nice! Especially since I've been replaying ALttP since Monday. Woot!

Lucky you. My anthology disc only has the German version in DOS...

Well, that file path definately wouldn't work. The QFG anthology cd has the windows version of QFG4. It wouldn't run in DOS.
