My copy hasn't even been dispatched yet. That's what I get for picking free delivery :I

2 eps a week sounds good to me.

2 eps a week? That's less than an hour!

Well, I could manage 3 if I could cram them all into my sundays or something! Although I'd probably be doing that anyway, I don't tend to have much free time at all on working days.

I could do 2-3 on the weekends. I don't even really need to watch them (if I don't have time to), I've seen all the episodes enough times that I could probably get in on the discussion regardless.

Same. And that's probably coloring my decisions here.

So yeah - whatever is best for you newbies.

And posted :D My keyboard's been acting up so if there's any missing letters or punctuation please tell me so I can fix it ^ u ^

It's been eons since I've seen the show (& iirc Buns has seen all the eps too haha), but yeah three eps a week is doable for me, since that should round to about an hour a week.

Gonna work on a post now. I might not post on Sunday since I've got an essay due Monday (& one due tomorrow while I'm at work so I have to do it *now* orz), but I won't get home from work on Sunday until 9pm, so depending on how far I get Saturday night... @@; Other than Sunday though I'm gonna try my hardest to at least pop in short posts rather than miss out entirely whenever I'm booked like this haha. I'll make up for helping out with progression/setup more once the workload starts to die down a little bit. ^^;;;

Hope you guys can forgive me for all the excuses :/



Edit: Sorry this is taking ages to wrap up, I'm almost done haha

I'll post after Rex then.

I'm a lot busier with my classes this semester than I've probably been letting on, but yeah, I have midterms this week, so if I miss a post on Tuesday, that's why.

Everyone's so busy :'D We can do it! Yaaaay! Have something that made me laugh as well as die a little inside



So what was "zoologically improbable and/or terrifying to small children"? This beauty:

That is most definitely zoologically impossible and terrifying to small children and adults

Lmfao

Awesome posts everyone! Absolutely loving the fun! >W<! Keep up the wonderful, wonderful work :D I hope everyone has a good weekend and best of luck on all the work, guys D: /tacklehugs and squeezes you all!

This is like, everyone so far

So it looks like we're all cool to do 3 episodes of Avatar a week? We'll start it on Monday and have it go to Sunday. People can watch the episodes any time during the week they're free, and we can either discuss it during the week using hider spoilers or wait until the Monday to discuss the past three episodes? :3

Speaking of discussion, I have a new one!

What's your top 5-10 favourite video games? :D



The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky

I'm sure everyone could guess this is my favourite ~w~ Inspired the rp and is my favourite rpg ever. Really, really great game, world and story. The battle system, whilst not the greatest or most innovative in the world, is solid and fun. And the story and characters are just... amazing. JRPGs need to be much more structured like Trails. It's that much of a good game that as soon as it comes on Steam I'm willing (and want to) gift everyone here a copy of it. Just great.

**********


Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater

Sublime gameplay and a gripping storyline set during the Cold War and in Russia, game's an absolute classic and never, ever gets boring no matter how many times I play it. It's one of the first game that I've cried to, and I'm not ashamed to admit that. The 3 hour plus ending game sequence is simply brilliant and nothing has ever reached that height since.

Also, Snake Eater and the infamous Ladder Boss.

**********


Sonic 3 and Knuckles

Lock-on technology made the biggest, and greatest Sonic game ever. The whole thing is sublime. The levels and gameplay are fantastic, plus the soundtrack was composed by Michael Jackson himself! I mean, who doesn't love Ice Cap, Flying Battery and Sky Sanctuary's music? And the different level paths and bosses through Sonic 3 as Knuckles... or how great Blue Spheres was. I mean, goddayum.

The fandom did a really awesome soundtrack remix project called Project Chaos which I really recommend listening ~W~

**********


Golden Sun & The Lost Age

Pach loves games that lock on and help enhance and lengthen the whole game. This was my first proper jrpg (discounting the game below) and it's one of the best jrpgs ever. The character development itself was a bit thin, but the story was a classic with one of the greatest twists ever and the overworld dungeon puzzles and use of Psynergy was so great, to the point where I'm actually dissapointed more jrpgs don't do it. I based the Weir chapter on a story part in GS. Soon as I finished the first game I preordered and searched for the second, only to have to wait years for its release ;A; But what a release <3 A shame though that the DS game was crap.

**********


Resident Evil: REmake

Back when the Resi series was still scary and lumbered with tank controls and pre-rendered backgrounds, this is the definitive Resi game and one of the best horror games, period. The direction the Resi series has taken since has had mixed results (4 is great, 5 was fun with a friend and the great memories, 6 was an abortion) and it's a shame there hasn't been another game since like REmake... it was just fantastic all the way through. Every time I got to a save point I had to quit and take a break for 20 minutes because it was that scary, only to keep firing it up because I couldn't put it down.

**********


Persona 4 Golden

Rise. Chie. Kanji. Game's fucking awesome. Nuff said.

**********


Super Smash Bros: Melee

Kirby and Jigglypuff are pink puffballs of destruction there to rip you a new asshole. I love this game. Pure magic and fanservice love. I ended up spending about a year playing the original and this game with my friends every single day. It's just... dayum. Brawl was great too bar the clone characters and the Wii system itself (with one of the best game soundtracks ever), but Melee I think was the more definitive version. I'm sort of interested in the new one, but Wii U... :|

**********


Pokemon: Gold and Silver (HeartGold&SoulSilver)

Your rival. Pokemon Eggs. Fighting Whitney and Miltank. Return of Team Rocket. Unknowns and Sudowoodo. Ho-oh and Lugia. Return to Kanto and seeing how everything changed in three years. RED.

THIS GAME.

**********


The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask

My first Zelda, and from there my favourite. I loved the game's time mechanic, and the game as a whole had a really creepy and forboding atmosphere. That damn moon in the sky... There weren't many dungeons in the game, instead it had lots and lots of side quests, which really helped to flesh the characters out to make you care about the poor townspeople and how they'd all die in three days unless you stopped it. And the mask mechanic was really cool, with transforming into a Deku, Goron and Zora a lot of fun. I hope they do a remake for the 3DS.

**********

What about you guuuuuuuuuuuuuuuys~ :>

Morning guys! My essay's almost done, so I thought I'd take a little break this morning to check the ooc. Looks like a new gaming discussion's up |D Luckily I have pics of all my favorite games already stored in my comp so I can mimic Pacman without wasting time haha!

I'll be watching all the eps at once when we start with Avatar since I need to have at least an hour of background noise while I'm doing work stuff at home haha, so rather than watch ahead of everyone else I vote for waiting til the end of the watching season/week or whatever to chat about it? :]

Brawl's good if you use a gamecube controller lol. I prefer Brawl to Melee anyday because Diddy <3. He just got confirmed for the new Smash Bros. also, which I'm picking up on the 3ds. Hopefully it won't be a pile of poo!

Get Blue Spheres was <333. I remember wasting hours of my life on that minigame.

Also I'll be posting later tonight. Love the posts, everyone (:



Aight, I'm off. Gotta wrap up my essay & head off to work haha. Had a fun time rambling hehe! I'll be back later tonight <3 Smell ya guys later!

Top 5-10 Video games, eh? Well this is actually kinda hard for me since I haven’t been playing video games that long. I was able to play them as a kid, but when I turned 8 or 9 my parents decided I was too old for them and wasn’t able to play anything else till college. So in most respects I am still a bit of a newb when it comes to games.

But I still have a top five.

Here we go - in reverse order :

5. Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver

What can I say that you guys haven’t? Its great fun and endlessly addicting.

4. Dishonored

I love this game so much. The story, the soundtrack, the combat system. (I love the whole stealthy assassin thing - but non-violent is fun too!). It’s really immersive and though certain plot points are predictable it is still a great time.

3. Star Wars: The Old Republic

Can I put an MMO on here? I’ve been playing this game consistently since launch and I still love it. The fully voice-acted storylines (8 total, and they have some replay value with the light/dark choices), the PvP (which I used to love but have soured on due to certain choices), and the PvE endgame content (Raiding be fun, yo!).

My class? Scoundrel Healer. Always.

And the RP in game is great too. :D

2. The Mass Effect Series

Yeah, this is only number two. I love Bioware’s games (hell, my top three are Bioware!) and I really love this story. It’s a great trilogy, and I even like the third one a lot, and the controversial ending has grown on me. The companion characters are fantastic, Commander Shepard is the best, and the combat system by the third game is really tight and fun. (Suicide Vanguard for the win!) 

1. The Dragon Age Series

Dragon Age: Origins is the first game I ever beat, and it’s still my favorite game. Dragon Age 2 has some serious issues, but I still think the story and the characters are strong. The voice acting is fantastic, the tie-in novels and comics are awesome (mostly) and you can have so many different stories.

And Inquisition looks BADASS. Can’t wait to get my hands on that - my most anticipated game of 2014.

---

Also on an unrelated note I found a fun little quiz - What Joss Whedon Heroine Are You?

I got Willow. How about the rest of you?

Ahahaha Rex you and your Borderlands love |D

Aw man, Viewtiful Joe! I played the first game and adored it up until the point where the game started brutally kicking my ass and I couldn't get any further, but it was such perfection. It's really gutting we never got a new game or a HD collection. What the fuck, Capcom?

I only played the first PS3 Ratchet and Clank but that was a lot of fun too. Love the art style, animation and humour. Such good fun, but that cliffhanger D|

Wow Danni, I knew how much you loved ME and DA but I never expected your likes to be in that order :D Hahaha, I always thought ME would have come first! I still need to get around to playing Dishonoured sometime (hoping it comes out on ps+ >_>;) and I think you'd love the Assassin Creed games, perhaps?

Also I'm glad you chicks have the sense to love the best Pokemon game omg <3 I can't wait for them to do a Twitch version of G/S and see how they'd lose to that fucking Miltank! I loved all the little sidestories and lore, like the Slowpoke well, Farfetch'd catching, Sudowoodo, Unknown cave, the lighthouse and burning tower, the roaming dogs... plus like Rex said, the day/night cycle and daily events, everything about G/S was just... perfect. And R/S, whilst good, lost the same magic.

I got Faith! I wanted to try and get Buffy, but I'll take Faith <3 <3 <3

You answered 'Chat up the girl next to him' @ 'boy hitting on you' question, didn't ya Danni? |D

I haven't played enough games to have a top 10. Or a top 5. Sims 3 is the game I keep coming back to, Tomb Raider Legend is probably my favourite although I won't replay it.

OH in regards to Avatar, my copy hasn't even been dispatched lol. I have seen the series before yeah, I mainly wanted the box set because my memory of Books 1 and 2 is kinda rusty. Well... very rusty :P

This isn't in any particular order, by the way. And there are plenty of other games I like, but I tried not to repeat anyone (like with MGS3, Persona 4, and Pokemon G/S).

1. Resident Evil 4
2. Silent Hill 2
3. Samurai Warriors 2 (possibly SW2: Empires because it was the first game in the series I ever played)
4. Tales of Phantasia
5. GTAV
6. Harvest Moon 64/Magical Melody
7. Mother 3
8. Seiken Densetsu 3
9. Diablo II
10. Sonic Adventure 2: Battle (because obviously)

Honorable mentions for Earthbound, Super Mario RPG, Tales of Symphonia, King's Quest 6, and probably a bajillion others.

I got Cordelia, meh.

I've got homework to do, so I'll post before I go to bed tonight in case anyone else wanted to post.

Video games (^w^)/! Also, I'll try to post before I leave for a checkup @_@ I think I need glasses. If I run out of time to post now though, I'll post tonight.

Good morning guys, hope you're all doing awesomely! 8D

Yay @ more list of gaaaames |3

Tales of Phantasia was fun, I really liked Mint and Arche. 16Bit RPG goodness at its finest.And Symphonia was fantastic too. HD Collection's just come out and I'm not sure whether or not to buy it... the impressions of the port aren't great but... it's Symphonia.



SA2:B :D Resi 4 :D SH2 :D I'm never playing that creepyass game ever again ;A;

Persona 3 was a really fun game. I got a bit into P3P doing the female protag path (Really hope P5 has a female protag) but I put it down just because the game is so long. Same with Skyrim, I really want to play it but it's so long and daunting to get into @_@ Eventually I will!

"It's just amazing, and there are just so many roads to take and so many choices to make. Should I be good? Evil? SCREW THAT! Let's just go kill everything in our path. 8D"

"Huehue >8D you can also be mean, pick your partner up and throw them off cliffs. Me and my lil bro pretty much had arguments because I loved killing his sackperson and taking all the points. //shot"

I sense a pattern here... >|D

Also !! @ Third Birthday love. I really enjoyed that game and loved the body swapping mechanic, it was a solid shooter. But the story was just... insane and ridiculous even by Japan standards. I have no idea what happened in it. And yesss @ RE5/Revelations love! Revelations not having co-op was weird though, huh, considering you play the game with an AI partner. Even if the 3DS couldn't handle it I'm surprised they didn't try for the HD version.

And good luck with your checkup, Fox!

Edit: Nevermind.

This game, the memories
