What was the first game you ever played?

It must've been Super Mario Bros. for the NES.

The first Christmas I had an NES I got 6 games (1989 or 1990, I forget):

Contra
Final Fantasy
Ultima: Exodus
Guerrilla War
Blades of Steel
Super Mario Bros 3

It was a good Christmas. Those two RPGs I got potentially made me as socially awkward as I am.

Xenogears Appreciation/Discussion/Whatever Thread.

I'm using it to mean that the story presents itself to be deep when it is a bunch of half-baked cliches thrown together, which I'm pretty sure is using it correctly.

A pretentious poster would be one who pretends to know lots about a subject that they know little to nothing about.

What brings you to RMN?

I was waiting for the new Nexus.

Xenogears Appreciation/Discussion/Whatever Thread.

I played it when it came out and hated it. The story was pretentious and the game play was boring.

Can you explain what you said Holbert to Mr. Fell Asleep in Economic Class?

Yeah, I think I was over-paranoid. I'm a full time teacher, and although enrollment is decreasing, it should be ok for one more year.

Radical left and patriotism have never gone together. They won't start now.

I was worried my job wouldn't be safe next year, but I'm pretty sure economic downturns affect the education sector much later than other sectors, so I should be OK for one more year, which is all I really want.

The weird things you do

It don't think it's strange, but I refuse any help or spoiler in the very slightest, from the name of a location I haven't been to, to a characters name. I don't want to know anything about the game until it comes up in the game.

This is due to the plot twists in Lufia and Final Fantasy VII being ruined for me, and now I'm hyper-defensive.

Five Random Thoughts About Video Games.

I miss Working Designs because I could always trust that I would love the games they put out, and there's no longer a company like that.

Therefore I stick to only buying DS remakes, and perhaps I'll take the risk of buying Mega Man 9, but that's about it.

What upcoming games are you looking forward to?

Chrono Trigger DS is not rumoured, and is coming out in Japan next month.

That and Dragon Quest VI are the games I'm looking forward to.
