MEWD'S PROFILE

Odin Sphere is magnificent. I absolutely love how they handled the story.

I agree that Cornelius' final level was unreasonably hard, though. The boss fight was unreasonably difficult with all the lag, and the slime monsters SIMPLY CAN'T be killed easily. What's unfair is this is the first time you encounter them, but EVERY OTHER CHARACTER has a practical special attack to dispatch them.


Right now I am playing Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door for the first time, and Trace Memory for the DS. I'm still trying to catch up on Gamecube games I missed out on last generation and my DS is still fresh.

I'd REALLY like to get my hands on Phoenix Wright, Elite Beat Agents, or Fatal Frame at the moment.

I've yet to really get into a Rogue style RPGs. Probably because my first kiss with the genre was 'Time Stalkers' for the dreamcast. And it left a chalky, metalic and ever so slightly toxic taste in my mouth.

I expect if/when I try Etrian Odyssey, the genre will inspire the respect in me that its heritage commands.

Hey, we still dead? Because I'm only partially dead. It's really hard to type with rotting fingers.

What this comes down to, I figure, is personal preferance anyway. There's no way to define what games are simply the best. You can argue about how influential a game has been, or how well it has held up against the test of time, but the only thing that really makes a game great is how a given player feels about them.

That said; I like tetris, it's a brilliant yet spectacularly simple game. But if I had to make a list of ten games that I would spend the rest of my life playing exclusively, Tetris wouldn't be on it.

There seems to be a problem. The version I downloaded has no visible text, and it crashes if I encounter an enemy. The game has no apparent destination, and if I enter the building in the western area of town, I am unable to leave.
