Is it sad that I have never played that game?

UT3? Meh, it wasn't that good anyways. I'll stick to UT2004.

I don't think any MMORPG is worth monthly subscriptions.

$15 dollars a month for one game?

I think I will stick to paying $5 dollars a month to play any game I want on XBL.

There is something wrong with you, isn't there?

FF7. The GREATEST VIDEO GAME EVER MADE. The first game to match film storytelling. The BEST balance of plot, gameplay and design. No childish bullcrap.


:clap:

FF7 is definately in my top 10 favs. Maybe even in the top 3. When it first came out I was a freshmen in HS and my buddy and I would hang out and take turns playing it and cruising chat rooms with his epic dial up AOL internet connection while listening to Sublime lol. I still have to get out the old PS1 and replay it every few years. FF2 and 3 also rocked. I never finished 8 or 12, but 9 was pretty cool.

But if you want to talk about worst games, there are plenty of irritating games that annoyed the crap out of me for NES (even though I would spend hours trying to get through them). My list:

Ghost & Goblins, Goonies, Marble Madness, Predator, Friday the 13th, Zelda 2: the adventure of link, ninja turtles (not the arcade version but the one that combied an ariel view map and different stages kinda like Mario World).

The Nostalgia factor alone made Smash Bros. Well worth your time.

Super Smash Bros Melee was the best.

Yes.

Unless of course it's not OK for a woman to ask for a female to ask for a female officer to carry out body checks. In which case, the answer would be no.

Yeah Super Nintendo was the best system ever for RPG. FF2 and 3 along with Secret of Mana, Evermore, etc... Too many to list. But FF7 still deserves honorable mention. Kefka was a beast though and he's the only evil character ever that would say "son of a submariner"

Did you ever play Secret of Mana 2?? It was only released in Japan, but there were ways to get it.

It was leagues better than the first. One of the best RPGs for the SNES.

Star Trek Online. Played it because of Wilgrove's recommendation. The gameplay doesn't suck though, but the bugs OH THE BUGS. And the lag too. What the hell was that. They need to fix stuff like that before releasing it to the public.
