Right now after getting done with DK64. I've moved on to "Golden Sun: Dark dawn"(DS)
I have to say I'm really enjoying it .

[SpacemanDan]

Been playing Disgaea 4 and Professor Layton and the Last Spectre.

Currently on chapter 4 of Disgaea. I find this one to be so much more difficult than the previous games, but that's fine since 2 and 3 were too easy in my opinion. It's a lot of fun.

As for The Last Spectre, I swear, I'm really close to the end. 100 puzzles solved at the moment, and things are getting fairly interesting. I'm not as hooked as I was in the Curious Village or the Unwound Future, but it's still pretty interesting.

EDIT: Completed The Last Spectre. Now to wait for the Mask of Miracles...Damn 'to be continued' screens... (Yes, I was aware it's part of a second trilogy, leave me be. )

Not sure what DS game I'll tackle next...Hm...

EDIT2: Going to finish Golden Sun: Dark Dawn next. I got about 6 hours into it. I may as well finish it.

I'm wanting to kick myself for not getting into this series earlier, because Assassin's Creed II is pretty fantastic. There's plenty of main and side objectives to find, with a few interesting secrets as well. Suddenly, I want to see a Zelda game with towns as big and populated as this; they sort of did it in TP, but all that game had were people walking around aimlessly. They're more lively in this game. Also I was kind of a dunce and forgot I had the last seal to the armor of Altair so I didn't have it when I could have gotten it earlier, but I have that unlocked. I miss the robes being white though.

Also started watching a walkthrough of the first Assassin's Creed on YouTube. I'm glad I started with II; it looks rather boring and tedious in comparison...

You can change your armor back

Also, the AC-series is pretty good, and the last game, Revelations is obviously the best... at the same time, both Rev and Brotherhood are exact copies of ACII, except with new armor sets, new cities and new missions. Everything else is the exact same, from the animations to the engine. They still haven't removed that stupid little loading you get whenever you're opening the map or the meny. That's retarded in 2012.

Anyway, I'm currently playing Binary Domain and Dragon's Dogma. I'm not sure if either of em is out yet, and I know DD isn't coming out in a while, but they're both pretty cool western'ish games designed by Japanese people.

Although you may be enjoying it, the 2 GBA Golden Sun games are vastly superior in every single way imaginable.

Ironically I learned to like it and when I lost it in Brotherhood I got sad I was in white robes again but none of the dye colors look good.

(Dyed my cape though.)

Yeah, agreed about the loading bit. That irked me too much in ACII, mostly because it would go to that all white screen for two or three seconds after talking to a shop owner then exiting, whether you buy something or not. Thankfully that was gone in Brotherhood but the map loading issue still remains.

As for the games being copies of each other with different cities and missions, I pretty much agree, although Brotherhood does add a few things to shake it up a bit, like "Perfect Synchronization" requirements and Leonardo's war machines; the bomber glider was badass. But other than that, yeah, it's pretty much the same game, but it's a fun-as-hell formula and I enjoy the story, so until that starts to suck or I just grow bored, I'll continue to play the series.

Also I was right: Haven't touched White since the day I started it. Must get back on it. Need to finish Brotherhood; I borrowed Revelations from a friend so I'll be able to jump straight into it. Also, ACIII was announced and takes place during the Revolution. Not sure I'm psyched about that or not; sounds kinda meh, honestly.

-Souls of Wisdom (ZC)
-Ballad of a Bloodline (ZC)
-40 Winks (PS - emulated)
-Breath of Fire III (PS - emulated)
In this intensity order. Which means I haven't been playing 40 Winks and Breath of Fire III for weeks.
All great, except I don't enjoy BoF as much as I expected I would when I was seeing it in a VG magazine several, several years ago (10+ years?).

I guess I will play another 2.5 quest after finishing Souls of Wisdom (I can play BB any else time when I just want). I also should continue 40 Winks sometime, it's a great oldie. (being able to play games I could get only as close to as seeing them in VG magazines - thank you... emulators!!)

I otherwise would play Final Fantasy X-2 on real, non-emulated PS2, but it's impossible to find the time and possibility for that. Even though I just got the Lady Luck DressSphere (last time I played, some months ago), a feat I never imagined I would be able to.

+RuneScape. Mostly only afk fishing. (I already have all quests done.)

[Dawnlight]

Before it becomes hard to find, I finally got my hands on Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor Overclocked. I want to see what this whole DS hype is all about especially from someone who's a big Persona fan.

[Golden Chocobo]

I'm playing Tales of the Abyss on the 3DS! It's great, especially since I haven't played this Tales game in a few years.

Still working on a lot of other games... Previously mentioned, I am still in the middle of Heavy Rain, All 4 One (Ratchet and Clank), Professor Layton/Specter, andddd I bought Final Fantasy 13-2 but haven't started it yet.

[Dawnlight]

I'm now playing my JRPG of the Month for March: Tales of Graces f!

I am so excited! Especially when I waited since 2009 for this game to come here. First impressions coming soon!

[The Satellite]

Oh yeah, started Revelations a few days ago. About halfway through now. Pretty good, and the Masyaf Key levels are pretty freakin' sweet, but so far, I'm preferring Brotherhood to this. Although I'm starting to warm up to those Assassin Den assaults by Templar forces...

So here's a question. Does Tetris 2 even HAVE an ending? And did you say MINECRAFT has an ending? hmm...

Also, I am playing Diablo II, I am planning on re-installing Warcraft III so I can actually play the campaign, and I am trying to actually play thru the remaining Zelda games I have not beaten, which is pretty much everything from the Oracle games and on.

[Smiles the Death Bringer]

So here's a question. Does Tetris 2 even HAVE an ending?

I know the game has and end, but I don't think it actually has an actual endING.
I think the game just goes back to the title screen after you beat the last level.

[Fabbrizio]

I'm on a bit of an RPG kick right now. I'm playing Chrono Trigger, Earthbound and the GBA port of Final Fantasy VI simultaneously. I'm making the most progress in Earthbound because I'm on my third or fourth time through. Chrono Trigger, on the other hand, is a new game for me.

Beat Assassin's Creed: Revelations and am ready for III now. Gotta say, I felt Revelations was shorter than the others, and it had more heart-pounding segments, but each of those (as well as the game in general) just felt too easy. It did fix a few issues and added some cool bits such as the hookblade, but otherwise, it wasn't all that gripping. The story had its good bits, but I just didn't feel invested. Luckily III will apparently be shaking things up a bit, so a fresh experience will be good, because I feel like the series would get tired in a hurry if it kept up like this. All in all, I'm gonna have to say that Brotherhood was my favorite (but II had the best locations), but so far, I've enjoyed playing this series. Well most of it; I skipped the first and watched a walkthrough. It looked boring anyway.
