I'm just not a good FPSer


Normally neither am I, I suck at Halo, Half-Life, all those games but I'm finding Metroid Prime easy to get into partly because of the lock-on feature which makes it a little like Zelda.

So....what do you get when you mix Final Fantasy, Fire Emblem, and Disgaea?

Well, for one, a bunch of pissed off FF/FE/Disgaea fanboys/girls, but that's neither here nor there. - Notty, Games and Stuff.

I got my morph ball back, but fell into disinterest after awhile...

The GBA Metroids are more fun for me anyway.

NES Metroid!

Back when Kraid was so short you could jump over him, and you could kill Ridley without even being hit...

I think the best Metroid was the SNES one.

I agree with Alan on that one. The only one where I ever got the "good" ending.

The only thing I didn't like about it was the lack of a Justin Bailey code.

I agree that SNES was the best, (that my Cube-less self has ever played, anyway) but the fact that NES Metroid got me completely lost for, quite literally, years, and then finally was vanquished about a year ago makes me remember it quite vividly.

Ugh, I don't think I ever even got to Ridley... I was so proud of killing off Kraid, and then the power went out.

I don't think I touched it for months after that.

Got ZSnes? Have Super Justin Baily and Super Metroid in the same folder, with the same name and be happy.

I mean, if you already own Super Metroid.

Mike and Mike should stop talking dirty to each other. I might have missed this, being gone yesterday.
Hey, the comic seems to be updating kind of regularly. Maybe we should vote to spread the word.

She's got Tennisshoes, a Bikinni, and a PonyTail, but I have no idea who/which Mai your talking about.

I didn't want to miss a chance to give a cool game edit.

I played and finished Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow, Gold and Silver and just finished Ruby. I liked them but they haven't dramatically changed over the years.

Bought Metriod Prime yesterday and started playing it this morning, it is AWESOME!

Just landed on Tallon IV, and in some Chozo Ruins.

It's a great game. And Metroid Prime 2 uses basically the same game engine, so it's just as good.

Or so I've heard.

Why oh why did I blow all of my money on a DS......

Cause you were blindly addicted to the DS, even before it was released, like a crack whore needs crack...
