>.> Okay, I'm back. If'n you like Mortal Kombat, check out Shaolin Monks. If not...it really won't appeal to you. It really is only good if you're a MK fan, if you're just looking for a good beat-em-up...stay away.

Not a very good beat-em-up/brawler?

But then again, are there any in recent times?

that's a fighting game, imbecile.

A unique and totally awesome one, but it's not in the same genre as a game like shaolin monks. Or the bouncer.

However, I remember reading about a warriors game coming out, which should be in that category.

It's just fine as a beat-em-up, but its main focus seems to be on Mortal Kombat nostalgia. The entire game is basically a plot-packed remake of Mortal Kombat 2, and they cram as much MK2 into it as they can. Every battlefield is now a level, every character appears either as an ally or a boss fight, every secret character makes his appearance, even the false rumors have been given a place, such as "you can knock an enemy into one of the Living Forest's trees and the tree will eat them" or "you can hang an enemy on the hooks hanging down in the Dead Pool", neither of which were true in MK2 no matter how much fans wanted them to be, but are now actually part of puzzles in Shaolin Monks.

Haven't played it myself yet (and I don't intend to) but over at Game Revolution had some good things to say about it and gave it a B-. And these guys are usually fairly tough (a little too anti-Nintendo for my liking though) so that might be a fair indication of it.
Arrakis teaches the attitude of the knife--chopping off what's incomplete and saying: "Now, it's compete because it's ended here."

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.

Right then. I have 60 bucks and want a new game. The only games I own thanks to my sister giving almost all my games to a charity are Katamari Damacy, Final Fantasies VII, IX, and X, WoW, City of Heroes, Doom 3, Jedi Academy, and Sonic Mega Collection. I'm considering Ultimate Spider-Man. Any better suggestions?

Final fantasy 8 cause I love it so and you neglected it!

Yu-Gi-oh for the DS cause its hours upon hours of fun.

Shaolin monks because MK2 is always worth it.

a MGS game cause sometimes snake is so ninja he doesn't even need stealth.

Am I the only one that wanted to mug Otacon and steal the invisibility device?

NO.

Though, I hear if you got the Otacon ending (I didn't... I refused to believe that you could give up suring the interrogation!), you get the stealth device instead of the infinity bandana...

Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance comes out on October 17. The day RIGHT BEFORE MY BIRTHDAY.

I think Nintendo loves me.

Yeah.

It wasn't a very satisfying ending, but it was a lot more useful then the Infinity Bandana was...

I beat the second, but I'm not so sure it was a victory.

Or the heavy cost of watching Raiden run naked all around everywhere.
