Finish the other 50 stars in Mario 64.

No. They're boring. Plus I've done them a billion times before.

I bought Super Mario 3D Land last night and am enjoying it thus far.

Final Fantasy VIII.

So, finished the campaign of fire emblem awakening after like 50 hours of pure awesomeness. This game is just astounding and I HIGHLY recommend it to anyone with a 3DS. This game fixed so many problems I had with the GBA fire emblems (though not all) and improved upon everything that makes fire emblem great.


In the end...


pros:
-Amazing new mechanics that allow for some really fun and unique strategies
-Fansmurfingtastic music as usual.
-Really fun writing that doesnt take itself too seriously, but also knows how to amp up the intensity if needed.
-This game has a great sense of humor that plays on all of the old fire emblem tropes. I found myself laughing quite frequently during this game which doesnt happen for me very often.
-The difficulty allows for a lot of customization and its very fair while still extremely punishing. It's hard to get the luck based strategy game right, but this game did it very very well.
-It's such an absurdly vast game. The amount of characters to get, the marriage system, the child units, the pair up system, reclassing units and skill building... the amount of thought one can put into character building is enough to make ones head spin. I know I spent many hours just overwhelmed by the amount of info. Some may see this as a con, but I found it absolutely fascinating. You can get so insanely creative its amazing.
-And an absurd amount of post-game content that will likely keep me busy for months to come.


Cons:
-It takes up a lot of time, which is a huge issue for a ton of people if you arent on break.
-The story can be extremely predictable
-Some of the writing near the end got a bit too melodramatic for my taste, but thats every fire emblem game sooo
-The 3d gives me a headache, but thats how I am with every 3ds game
-Harder difficulties like Lunatic and Lunatic+ require spending a lot of time grinding experience and the early chapters are absolutely ridiculous in their stupidity.
-The total price of DLC adds up quick, and some may argue its pretty overpriced.


But yeah, this game is stellar. I fully embrace the flaws and the strengths of this game. It's a fantastic experience if you're willing to put in the time. If you have a 3ds, pick it up. You won't regret the purchase. This is definitely my game of the year.

I got VVVVVV for .50 off Steam and it is awesome. I've died 1527 times! I don't know what these Shiny Trinkets are, but I want them. After "Doing Things The Hard Way" and "Prize For the Reckless" I think I can handle anything the game throws at me now. Maybe.

I exchanged a duplicate Christmas gift I got for Assassin's Creed IV. I haven't had a chance to play it yet but today's my "Friday" so I'm super stoked about all the time I'm going to put into it over the next couple of days.

[Shorty]

I started Assassin's Creed IV last night. I'm not very far yet and only put a couple of hours into it but I'm enjoying it a lot so far. I loooove the "real world" premise, the setting of which is giving me Deus Ex: Human Revolution vibes, and sailing the boat is a blast.

Also: super hot main character.

[Bubba]

Ploughing through hero mode on Zelda: A Link Between Worlds on my 3DS.

Also, received GTAV for Christmas and am thoroughly blown away as to what Rockstar have achieved. Incredible.

Playing so much lately!

Morrowind: I was rocketing through the main quest until a couple of weeks ago at which point I slowed down because this has become my "streaming game" and I don't get to stream that often for various reasons. Still, people do show up and watch me mess around in an open world WRPG, so that's pretty great. One of my addons has apparently added a ton of bonus content to the MQ so that's kind of fun because it freshens it up a bit.

Bravely Default Demo: Love it. I've put more time into it than some of the complete games I've payed full price for, ahaha. I'm pretty sure most people here know of this game but if you don't it's basically an oldschool Final Fantasy without the Final Fantasy game. You get to mess around with job classes and beat things up. It's fun.

Pokemon X: Still playing it; my current projects are Operation Breed The Perfect Goomy and Operation Complete the Pokedex. The latter would go a lot quicker if I was just going purely through trades but I'm carefully handraising most of the Pokies I get which is actually pretty great because it means now I've got an absurd amount of high level Pokemon. Good word I love this game. I'm not sure how I can go back to the older gens now.

Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag: DO WHAT YOU WANT CAUSE A PIRATE IS FREE, YOU ARE A PIRATE - it's the same shtick as other AssCreed games but extra fun because you get boats and oh yeah, you're a pirate. Having a lot of fun with this one so far! We'll see if it holds my interest though - games in this series always tend to lose my attention partway through.
