Witch is an even better game that hasn't came out yet, can't wait!
You don't know it's gonna be a better game until you actually play and beat it. I thought Twilight Princess was going to be the best Zelda game ever when it came out, and it wasn't. icon_razz.gif

In my free time this weekend. I finished up Okamiden (DS), and I have to say I was quite happy with how this game played though. it was the best ds game I've played in a long time.
But the enjoyment was hampered a little tiny winy bit. My DS lite's Top screen hinge broke, Now the top screen is quite wobbly.

After that game I want to start up Okami (PS2) again for the hell of it icon_razz.gif

I still need to beat Zelda: Spirit Tracks. I'm going very slow. I've beaten the desert dungeon and now I have all the sidequests (mainly driving people and things around in the train) that I just don't feel like doing. And getting even a single complete train set is a pain as well. One day...

I also need to finish Mega Man Legends 2 (utterly amazing fantabuloustic series!). I've tried, oh I don't know, 100 freakin' times to beat the second Digger's Guild Test but I JUST... CANNOT... DO... IT!!! Bloody things hard as heck! Every time I try to throw a shield enemy into the other shield enemy, I get blasted with green smoke which disables my buster. And I need to kill more enemies before the time limit runs out. And the few times I make it to the final room in the test, there are two giant Sharukurusu that I swear are harder (impossible) to dodge than in Legends 1. Basically, it's so hard I stopped playing. It's not mandatory to beat the game, but the completist in me won't let me. It's the same reason I won't beat Spirit Tracks without finishing the sidequests. I won't bother getting all the train parts, though. It's too much. I didn't get all the boat parts in Phantom Hourglass for the same reason.

The Hobbit for Gamecube. I'm at a hard part in the game where giants are throwing rocks at me while I'm trying to get everything. I stopped because I got Mega Man Legends 2 for Christmas and wanted to play that. So, obviously, I haven't finished this one either.

One day...

I've been losing a bunch of sleep lately, I've been playing the heck out of Okami as much I can can at night...(Have a hard time playing it during the day. so much stuff to do.)
But so far I've beat Orochi again, and I'm on my way to the Ryoshima Coast. (Oh so much fun icon_smile.gif )

So after writing my post above, I had the sudden urge to play Mega Man Legends 2 and try to beat the second Digger's Guild Test for my Class S License. After MANY MORE brutal attempts, I FINALLY beat it! HECK YES! This is my ultimate gamer's victory. icon_razz.gif

Oddly enough, I beat it when I was physically wore out, tired sleep-wise , and generally lacking normal coordination because of the tiredness. Oh well. I'm just glad I beat it. Now I can continue the main game. icon_biggrin.gif

And finally beat Hero Mode. Now I just gotta start a new game in WW within the next few days so I can play through it and determine whether it or SS deserve the top spot for "Best 3D Zelda game"...

Currently playing through OoT 3D's MQ, with only temple harts and no shield. It's so hard T~T
Also, Link's Awakening DX which I just got. I love it! I'm on the 5th temple.

I just beat Uncharted 2: Among Thieves. The final boss in that game was easier than Uncharted: Drake's Fortune. Now I need to wait for Uncharted 3's price to drop.

I recently got Arc Rise Fantasia as my JRPG of the month for May. Let's hope the gameplay in general makes up for the horrid voice and production values.

I finally got around to finishing "Nostalgia" for the DS. Awesome RPG, made to feel like an early Final Fantasy game, but with better graphics. You know, like the remakes for FFIII and FFIV on the DS, only this one was done much better and is an original story. The two coolest things it has going for it is that you battle from inside your airship when you fight on the World Map (each party member mans a different weapon on the ship, but the entire ship only has 1 HP meter), and the game world is designed around the real world, so you'll be exploring towns like New York, London, and Tokyo, and flying over places like Africa or England. I would recommend this one without a doubt for ANYBODY who enjoys a good RPG.

Now that I've finished that one, I have a bunch of other games I already own that I need to get around to actually finishing. My complete list is...

---PlayStation/PlayStation2---
Final Fantasy IX
Final Fantasy X-2 (going to wait until IX is done)

---Nintendo DS---
Kirby Mass Attack
MegaMan ZX
Okamiden
Pokemon White
Radiant Historia
Solatorobo
Super Robot Taisen OG Saga: Endless Frontier
Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey

---Game Boy Advance---
Earthbound Zero/Mother
Earthbound
Mother 3

---Super NES---
Chrono Trigger: Crimson Echoes (98% Version)
Seiken Densetsu 3
MegaMan X2
MegaMan X3

---Genesis (Includes any add-ons)---
Knuckles Chaotix

---PC---
Distorted Travesty
Sonic: Before the Sequel
Sonic Classic
Shrink High
American McGee's Alice
Mushroom Kingdom Fusion (Lags a TON on my computer)
Sonic Robo Blast 2 (Doesn't seem to load textures right)
Terraria
Touhou 1-10 (I've only beaten Embodiment of Scarlet Devil on bad ending)
Katawa Shoujo (I can't bring myself to finish it, because then it will be over!)

Yeah, I do a lot of emulation on my computer. I just love the idea that I can find and experience all those games that I missed out on growing up. I mean, I grew up through the Golden Age of RPGs, and never owned an actual PlayStation! Unfortunately, I seem to lack something called "self-control" and end up with a massive backlog of games that I haven't finished yet. The worst thing is, I can't bring myself to erase them from my computer until I have them finished, so they're eating up a fair amount of hard drive space. Oddly enough, I always keep the save files as a "trophy" of sorts for having finished them. Even if I'll never play them again, I hate the idea of deleting away the save file and losing all that hard work.

Is your comp able to support 1-5? I heard that they were done on Windows 98 and that it appears that Zun has not released the english patches for them.
As for the rest, good luck on anything that's not no. 9 (aka. Phantasmagoria of Flower View), which is ridiculously easy for Touhou standards icon_smile.gif.
No. 10 (Mountain of Faith) is badly broken when you use MarisaB - Her unfocused laser at 3 power causes an insane amount of damage thanks to a bug.
The only ones I came close to 1cc'ing on normal, save for 9, were 7 (Perfect Cherry Blossom) and 11 (Subterranean Animism), having gotten up to the final boss in them before the last of my lives were snuffed out by their spells (the fifth-stage bosses also had a hand in whittling my lives down, I'm looking at you, Youmu!).

The site I found the download for 1 through 5 included a set of Windows98 emulators, so they run pretty well. I tried the first one, since I like playing series in order whether it makes sense or not, and it was really weird. I skipped ahead to Scarlet Devil, because I figured it was the first of the modern-type games. Unfortunately, since I can't get to Flandre, I can't bring myself to start up the next one.
