  • Any thoughts of game of the year? Mine's a toss-up between Double Dash and KOTOR.

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Ocarina of Time Master Quest, Wind Waker, Vice City, Fire Emblem Advance, Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow, Skies of Arcadia Legends (even if it is just an update),

Just a few comments:

If I went on games released other years as well, I would have to say that Final Fantasy 8 is the game I had the most fun with this year, playing it throuugh one and a half times (I'm currently playing through it). Possibly the Sims as well, I didn't really play a whole lot of it, but my friends did, we set up a huge neighborhood that was a fairly close resembelence to our places. Skies of Arcadia Legends, I have been through the original several times, but Legends is like a whole new game and it was a lot more fun to do the side-quests than the original (and there were more siequests, and a lot more history on the characters and the gameworld included in the game); Skies is just an all around fun as hell RPG. Fire Emblem, Aria of Sorrow, Vice City, and Wind Waker: they've all had enough said about them by me and others, I don't really have much else to add at this point. Ocarina of Time Master Quest: I've been moving through this one slowly, but it is the only Zelda game that I have ever played that has offered me any sort of a real challenge. I'll admit that Ocarina of Time got me at a couple of points, and though I didn't really get stuck in Majoras Mask or the Oracle series, I did find some parts offered quite a bit of challenge; yet nothing that matched the Master Quest.</div>
