man i'm playing so many games right now.
i have a bunch of DS games to play that i recently put on my R4, but i've only played all of them a little bit. and then i also downloaded a bunch of indie and adventure games that i'm working on.
basically here's a list of what i'm playing (and a nice list of recommendations for anyone looking for some good games):
-Mother 3, which is my absolute favorite game EVER. i've already played it 3 times in Japanese and once in English. and i've seen the prologue countless times (from getting other people to start games). however this time i am playing through it with my best friend Dillon because friends don't let friends not play the Mother series. we just finished Earthbound and we're moving on. we're abotu halfway through chapter 1.
-5 Days a Stranger. i played it and beat it back when i was like 6 and then i got about halfway through the sequel. so now i'm playing it again because i forget a lot of stuff and then i am going to play all 3 of the sequels (7 Days a Skeptic, Trilby's Notes, 6 Days a Sacrifice).
-Save the Beagles. it's a really addictive indie side-scrolling arcade game. i have been playing it a lot, trying to get to further levels and get higher scores. plus it's adorable.
-Seiklus. it's a collection game. you just explore and try to find all these little orb things. it's pretty cool and fun and i'm at like 50% right now.
-Retro Game Challenge. a DS game where you play as a kid in the 80s and you play a bunch of arcade-style games that never existed, like "Haggle Man" and "Cosmic Gate". really fun because i love that kind of game. :]
-Sims 3. it's pretty great, and i've always been a fan of the series. has some new features that are pretty cool. customization is pretty much limitless in this one, and i like being able to explore the neighborhood. it was confusing at first but now i'm addicted.
-The Shivah. it's an adventure game where you play as a rabbi. i haven't gotten very far because it keeps glitching up for some reason. my computer is not being able to run it very well but i'm not sure why... so i'm working on fixing that so i can play it more.
-Cactus games. i've played and am playing several games: Illegal Communication, Saru ga Daisuki, Psychosomnium, Clean Asia, etc...
-
Jason Rohrer games. i've played Passage, Gravitation, Primrose, and Between. they're all pretty great.
-Syobon Action. hahaha. it's a Mario clone, i guess? just look it up. you play as one of those Japanese
futaba cats and go through Mario levels that are actually really evil and not at all like Mario. it's hard because the level tries to kill you, hah.
-Theresia. a horror (and slightly animu-styled) game where you wake up in a dark, bloody cellar and you don't know anything. seems pretty cool from what i've played so far.
-The Legendary Starfy. haha. xD it is so so so easy and obviously meant for younger people... but it is so fffffff ADORABLE. it's actually really fun for me as a casual game. it's got really cute characters and you can collect outfits for Starfy that are just... ridiculously cute. i don't know why i keep playing it but man it is strangely addicting despite it being childish and easy. i think that a lot of older people could still enjoy it.
-God of War. yeah pretty contrasting to the last game on the list. but yeah it's pretty fun. dunno what else to say about it; i'm sure a lot of other GWers have played it.
-Team Fortress 2. i'm always playing this. ffffing addicting, man. i'm liking the new updates.
-World of Warcraft. gotten back into it since it's the summer. i've got a level 18 Warlock Gnome. hoping to get to 30 as soon as possible because i want a mount (although soon the first mounts will be available at level 20).
-Henry Hatsworth and the Puzzling Adventure. an interesting DS game. has a puzzle game on the bottom screen where you have to connect 3 or more blocks of the same color to keep them from piling up onto the top screen. the top screen has a platformer adventure where you explore jungles as Henry Hatsworth to try and find pieces of a legendary golden outfit. hah. very fun and addicting.
-Peggle Dual Shot. ridiculously addicting. i'm almost done with the classic Peggle levels, and then i get to play Peggle Nights.
-Puzzle Quest: Galactrix. an addicting puzzle DS game that also has tons of other aspects. the puzzle part of it (which is a Bejeweled-type game using hexagonal blocks) is the method of fighting when you are in outer space and you come across enemy ships. it's really good and everyone should play it.
i'd also like to play Prototype, Left 4 Dead, Monkey Island, Grim Fandango, and various other games. i just have so much to play and not enough time. D:
