I always heard FF VIII was Dawson's Creek. IN SPACE.

I'm never going to play it though so that won't change any time soon.

Never going to play it? o_o

I played it and my exact thoughts were Dawson's Creek in Space. But worse, 'cos FFVIII is strawberry floating awful.

FFVIII is a brilliant game. Better than VII but not as good as IX. For the first time ever, Suzz is talking sense about Final Fantasies

Rinoa survives in space. Despite floating out there with zero protection or anything, and for quite a while. Even for a fantastical story, that's taking the piss.

They made the story up as they went along and it died a death. Squall was a moody banana split and, to be quite honest, I don't even remember the other characters because none of them had any actual character.

It really does puzzle me why it's so fondly remembered, what with it being the worst FF on the PSX.

It's just after that point I abandoned the game. That mini-game where you have to catch her as she's floating towards you just stretched my patience beyond breaking

"We grew up together? Why don't we remember?"

"Oh it's those damn GF's"

"What, you mean the ones we started using a few days ago?"

Started up Resident evil 2 again last night (GC version) what a great game :wub:

Finished Leons A story can't be arsed to start Claire B yet so i've started playing.....

Billy Hatcher and the Giant egg (GC)

I'm aiming to get the unlockable NIGHTS minigame as i've never played it before

SMW 2 - Yoshis Island - Superb game which still looks good today, particularly in 60Hz and RGB Scart..modified snes FTW 8-)

Metroid Fusion is just :wub:

Hated the final SA-X battle, though. It's quite tricky.

Ive been going through a bit of a GC renaissance at the mo too. Billy Hatcher, Sonic Adventure 2, Crazy Taxi and Kelly Slater's Pro Surfboarding are all getting a look in.

playing metroid now.

infact i finished fusion, and now playing metroid the GBA classics edition and starting into the marathon prime/echoes and corruption, got Super metroid sitting waiting to be done on the SNES, hopefully get them all completed before other M comes out...

I hated the fight with Nightmare. I hope he chokes on a bag of dicks.

I also hated the Mother Brain fight in Zero Mission because it was ridiculously hard in comparison to the rest of the game.

i found the SA-X to be easier than the boss where you get the space jump, that sucker raped me about 20 times.

now playing turtles on the NES.

I've been tempted lately to start RE4 again (GC) but i've got so many current gen games to play I can justify playing it until i've finished the newer games

I'll soon be starting my yearly playthrough of the three original Donkey Kong Country games. :wub:
