it was a text based game and you had to choose what he would do at certain points, this then effected the rest of the story… like i said, it was really bizarre…

Wow - I just played Zelda: Link to the Past again a few days ago, and I’m addicted to that game yet again. I’m almost done with the last castle in the dark world…again 🙂

I found out that Ether/Hammer is a great combination on any non-magic unit. Ether freezes them and Hammer shatters them leaving behind a magic potion almost all the time. A great way to beat the Ice kingdom and any other castle with a lot of units that need to be destroyed.

Cheers!

K - I had no idea!!! 🙂

I remember when I found out that if you sprinkle magic on those round red things that fly around they turn to faires I was the happiest kid on the block 🙂

I can remember sitting down and playing Zelda Link to the Past in one day - from begining to end. I loved that game so much.

Hehe yeah - I found that out a while ago - always great. You know the small rotating set of four stars that follow you and turn you into a bunny for a few seconds? Well, if you sprinkle magic dust on them while they are standing stationery, you get a fairy from them as well.

Also, instead of throwing bombs on conveyor belts and timing the explosions just right on the last tower, simply create a block using the Cane of Somaria (I think that’s how it is spelled). Once the block has been created, throw it on the conveyor belt and press Y once the block has reached the orb. The block, as you may know, explodes into four fireballs that head off in all four directions - setting of the orbs that alternate the blue/red ground hindrances 🙂

Gah - the game is so fun that I am taking time away from homework to write about it hehe. There is just something about the game, the music, the colors, the story, the quest, and the people that is just so fascinating even 10 years after I first played it. So many fond memories associated with that game =)

Cheers!

FF I (NES) Lets face it, this one got me hooked.  
FF VII (Playstation) Best FF thus far.  
FF Tactics (Playstation) This game rocks. Although the running in place thing bothers my room mate. =0)  
The first Zelda (NES)  
Street Fighter II (SNES) (Had to list this one, my friend and I lost many an hour of sleep here)  
Lunar the Silver Star Story (Sega CD) Only the Sega CD version, I did not like the Playstation one as much.  
Tetris Attacks (SNES) My friend and I still have 45+ min matches on this silly game.

I am not going to list my fav PC games, they are generally the same as the others listed here. =)

Cheers!

Tails was ok in sonic 2 i guess, but he really annoyed me. The advantage of tails was that my sister could control him whilst i did the actual playing of the game. It kept her quiet and happy. Nowadays she just sits around watching MTV all day\*. The only time she moves out of the chair it seems is to either goto school or to get food. All kids that age seem to be like that now. I weep for her generation.:\*(

\*(i may have spent a lot of my youth on computers, but at least i was being constuctive! and i went outside…sometimes)
