"Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time" (DS). It is a mario game in the RPG line, similar to Paper Mario but without the flatness.

It is a fun and colorful platform/RPG/puzzle crossover, but presented waaaaaaay too childish. Personally I could do without the silly sentences (as far as I can tell, there are two Italian babble sentences that get repeated over and over) and the constant crying.

The puzzles are quite basic and all revolve around Lost Vikings style cooperation between the characters to get them to progress step by step, the combat is turn based and still focused greatly on timing. Attacks can be performed by multiple characters, usually counting on you pressing the right button at the right time to add another attack to the combo chain.

Fun game, but not to play for long periods of time.

Playing Mutant Storm (PC). It is an awesome game! I got to level 89 yesterday. I finally got myself a wired Xbox360 controller to hook it up to PC USB port. I really just bought it to play Space Giraffe on PC. But Mutant Storm is so much fun with that controller, too.

Playing Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War II (PC). Like the graphics and the emphasis on individual units, but miss tank rushing an enemy base with land raiders.

I just played BioShock on a friends X360 I saved from RROD/Black screen issues.
Stupid X-Clamps.

Works like a charm now.

Now you have the second one to play through if your up for it

I finished the first one on the N64! I have the second one on the PS2 but never really got into it.... not sure if it was released on the dreamcast though

Peter · 21 April 2009, 17:55

I actually started Shadowman on my N64 but I don't like the fact that I cant get a decent picture on the N64 - although it is a great games machine I wish it had RGB scart output...

When I got a copy of it on the Dreamcast I preferred to play it on that as the picture output is so much better...

Yep I picked up Shadowman 2 on PS2 - it looks a bit different!!
I will play it but I am a bit overdosed on Michael LeRoy at the moment!

I am back on Doom III on the old X-box for a bit now... got to get that finished..

What output do you have from your N64 PowerPie5000 ??

My old N64 was actually RGB modded as i do not like using RF or Composite on any console unless i have to

I am not even sure if i still have my old n64... It never really got any attention compared to my other systems.

Marcuz · 21 April 2009, 18:17

i saw plaing Drakensang, Dark sector and Dead space... none of them is a great game, nor particularly orignal imho.
since yesterday i would like to play some hardware game like Pong, though.

Indeed. Thanks Marco. I think in 5 years time (or less) we're all playing Crysis quality type games via Flash!

Shoonay will love Toycat
