Yeah. If healing was any more complicated in groups, I'd pass out halfway to Princess...

How did we end up talking about MMORPGs? WoW at that.

...I'm VERY adamantly opposed to them, and I especially don't appreciate how they creep into this thread, despite having their own specialized thread. Augh, you people are enough to give me a migraine!

Anyways yeah, I like fighters, and I do like space or even plane shoot-em-ups, but I hate 2d sidescroller shoot-em-ups. Throw in puzzle games and stragey games, because I'm a balanced person^.^. Racing games too!

Because we're talking about possible evolution abilities of contemporary games....

I dislike MMORPG's as much as the next guy, but they're still games. They don't creep in all that often even then. Seriously, man, RELAX. If you don't like it, just ignore it and start off a new tangent.

You probably just hate them because you suck, JP.

I love side scrolling shooters.

As soon as I pick up metal warriors and super r-type, I'll have all the SNES shooters worth talking about.

We were talking about MMOs because Terra was complaining about the online Metroid... WoW came up because it's the one most of us PLAY...

They're games too, y'know... and we were more talking about gamePLAY, not the game itself...

I'll just leave the conversation now, I'm no good at real-time games...

One word.

Planetside.

Oh man, I loved that game. Played a week long demo and didn't get tired of it. However, I didn't think it was good enough to pay for it monthly, when I can get plenty of online FPSes for free or for a one time fee.

I love games that imerse me to the point where I actually feel like the main character. Superhero games like Spiderman 2, and Batman Begins are shining examples of this.

no way, if u want 2d, and you want guns, play megaman or metroid, NOT some half assed Contra clone. They're all horribly horribly made.

And shutup. I have a right to complain this time. I DID start my own topic, and over the course of 2 pages it somehow evolved into WoW. How do you guys go from Hunters to WoW, it makes no sense....

Edit: isn't metal warriors arguably closer to being a space shooter, or really its own genre?

I have been playing the first megaman with the anniversy collection..holy hell is it alot tougher than I remember. I got all the robot masters killed but I can't beat the first Yellow Golem boss thing in Wiley's castle.

I used to be able to go through Gradius 3 with one death back in the day.

I can go through gradius III on one continue, usually.

Kuraiou-- Yeah, I'll pick up super r-type sooner or later.
My snes shooter collection:

Earth Defence Force
Gradius III
Strikegunner STG
Cybernator

All I'm missing is super r-type and metal warriors. That I know of, anyway.

edit: this is the ones just worth talking about.

I guess starfox is in there...it's currently at my house, but i haven't gotten around to playing. my best friend owns it though, actually. He left hyperzone here, too.

I haven't played Starfox or Starfox 64 in so long. Man, I miss those games :/

and I miss the Nintendo Power comics for that, and Link, and Metroid! Those were nifty.

Did any of you ever, when playing Smash Bros, put a back story into a fight? You know, a reason why these characters from various games wanna kick each others asses.

Uh, because that would be messed up.

Kuraiou-- I suppose so.

Drek--No... because I never really played it.
but it sounds like something i would do.

Just in making snide comments, like imagining the insults and taunts the characters would give each-other...

Raiden: Super Smash Bros has always been and always will be. The sorceror Ganondorf was sent to the Netherealm and constantly pursued by the bounty hunter Samus Aran. However, he found a way to escape the Netherealm and landed in the Mushroom Kingdom.

Someone else carry on, it's been too long since I played Deadly Alliance. :P

Just finished my first playthrough of Psychic Force 2012 in over a month, and it surprised me how rusty I got at it over such a short period of time. Oh, and I'd also like to point out that... *takes a deep breath*

Actually, I pictured it starting off because there was some office christmas party, and Mario got really drunk. Hired Samus (who is a bounty hunter, and was also a little tipsy at the time) to take down Pikachu, and the whole thing escelated from there.
