So, most of the gaming market.
Its Big N's way of ensuring that they keep their traditional market along with the newbies drawn in by the interactivity and simplicity of the Wii.

Hrm. Well, my DQ5 character just got married.


I chose Bianca, because from a dramatic viewpoint, it made more sense.

Also, if you attempt to powerlevel in this game, there is a damn good chance you'll end up with more monsters wanting to join you than you know what to do with.

I dunno. The majority of people I know who play games are "jocks" with X-Boxes and Halo.

Don't worry, if the Bison ever take over the midlands Godzilla will take care of them. Just like he did with Bambi.

DQ2 was quite, uh, different from the first one. It was an interesting leap. The first game provided many prime examples of dominance in the design.

For instance, the damaging spells were useless compared to the standard attack. And cost mp.


At present, my favourite is probably either three or four. Both had wonderful systems and told their stories in quite brilliant ways.

Well, to be fair, the first WAS a bit... experimental. For the second they tried to cover most of the complaints from veteran D&D-type gamers, specifically the lack of a variety of characters, the weakness of magic, the size of the world, etc. The third was also different because FF1 had been released by that point, so they had a rival to grow based on the competition with. I have no idea what the smeg happened with IV to change it there.

Three is by far my favorite. I remember taking it to school on my first day of High School and showing it to my friend, we were laughing at the questionaire at the beginning. (Not making fun of it, but sometimes it had a tendancy to hit the nail on the head when it gave you your personality)

Two was...meh. I was irked by the fact that Loto's/Erdrick's sword was not the strongest sword.

I read that as Guitar Hero for some odd reason... But to answer your question no I haven't.

I have been messing around on some of the extra modes in PoR, and all I have to say is... Richter is a goddamn NINJA! And Maria's dove barrage owns. ^^

alpha, if you want to be supportive of a game enough to inflict personal harm, you should at least make them BUY the game.

Gunstar Heroes is an old Sega Genisis game. He's referring to downloading it on the virtual console.

Download it to the Wii, which would mean buying it on the Shop Channel.

I KNOW there's a name for it, but the names escapes me.

EDIT: Baron'd, but yeah. The Virtual Console.

Wait wait you have me wrong here. Causing extreme harm to people is one thing in my book but illegally downloading videogames is just wrong to me good Sir.

But yes if you have a Genesis or a Wii, get Gunstar Hero for it.

If you have a PC and emulate it, I'll break your kneecap.
