    Underwhelming last bosses

    in General Discussion

    Omega Metroid.

    I cannot say this with enough emphasis. Every single Metroid Fusion boss was harder than this guy.

    Yeah, pretty easy, but I STILL think X-Samus (original and mutated) was just as easy. I agree to the remark that Omega Metroid was nothing more than a plot device, not a boss. Ultimately I thought that all of the bosses were a bit...easy so...

    For underwhelming final boss battles I'd have to agree with the remarks about PoP:SoT. Perhaps I'd say the same for Tales of Symphonia, while it was a good fight, it wasn't anything remotely special, and it was probably easier than some of the other battles.

    The Motherbrain in Super Metroid was somewhat underwhelming now that I think about it. Actually, a lot of final boss battles are pretty damn underwhelming; Zelda ones however are still pretty damn epic.

    So how many Titans have you guys lost so far? :lol:

    >_>; We don't even have a Titan, or was that the joke? We've killed a Titan fetus (Operation Coathanger) in JV1V (that was scary module lag...30minutes).

    Sorry but i already belong to one heck of a corp wolfpack delta. Good luck out there. And dont get tangled up with BoB or its slave alliances. The in game power structure is in real flux right now.

    I'm part of the power flux ;) Goonfleet all the way baby, yes I am a Goon and yes...I still fly a T1 frigate from time to time.

    Eve is a great game just because you get the same training benefits from a hardcore gamer as if you were a casual one. The only difference is that more hardcore players will have more money and maybe better equipment. The real equalizer is time spent subscribed to the game, and THAT is where the game shines in my opinion. Instead of rewarding people for playing 16 hours a day, it rewards those who can't devote that much time (you set a skill to train and it trains in realtime, even when you're logged out so its great in that regard).

    I've gotta say...EVE is my first MMO that I've ever really liked. Asheron's Call was great but there was grinding and I wasn't into that, and since EVE isn't as much of a grind (from my perspective anyway) it makes it a lot more enjoyable to play :)

    PS. For the Swarm.

    you know what, video games really aren't that fun

    I've sort of reached the point where console gaming for me isn't a huge draw anymore and I basically continue to play consoles out of habit. I got drawn into EVE by a friend and became hooked. Its got a learning curve that actually leans backwards and is just that deep. If you are serious about games just being too simple...give EVE a go I guess.

    As for simple gameplay being a problem, what the hell? Mario is still a blast because its so simple. Drunken Mario speed runs are by far one of the most enjoyable things you can ever do. Lots of simple games are just sheer fun no matter what, and the difficulty of the gameplay itself can just make it...well...not fun.

    i figure i got one of those new chips that run faster and quieter. score!

    The 65nanometer ones? Unlikely, and besides they don't run any faster, they are merely are smaller, run cooler, and require slightly less power.

    You aren't the only one man.

    I still need to beat Metroid Prime 2 though... GOSKjflsj;falskgjasf

    Freaking sky keys

    I hope Retro gets rid of the fetch quests.

    QFE. I am in the EXACT same boat you are. I ended up buying the damn guide because I HATE finding the damn keys...and I hated it in Metroid Prime too.

    Still, I can't wait for Prime 3 :D

    Final Fantasy VII (7) DS: Is it possible?

    in General Discussion

    Considering the smallest DS cart is 1 Gigabit (128 meg) I think its entirely possible for them to shove the entire game onto 1 cart, thats with the removal of cut scenes though and replacing them with in game engine cut scenes. I'd expect 8 Gigabit carts to make an appearance at somepoint.

    Is it possible? Sure. Is it likely? Probably not...

    Took me since Christmas eve, but I finally beat it. Ending was...eh...I think OoT had a better ending than TP. I think OoT still stands as something of a better game than TP, but TP accomplished what OoT tried to, give the player the sense of an epic Hyrule.

    The boss battles and just the epic feel of the game really cement this as being the most epic Zelda of all.

    Ok, I've been debating about getting a 360 or a Wii for a while and finally decided to get a 360 now and wait on the Wii till the games I want are out.

    The games that made me decide to get a 360 are Dead Rising, Lost Planet, and Gears of War so far.

    What are other reasons to buy a 360?
