I have to agree with Flake, the game is a bit of a mess, in fact, I consider Peace Walker to be a much better MGS game than 4.

Glad you're liking it. You should get yourself some points and buy some DSiware. I bought quite a few games that I have enjoyed and gotten my money's worth from.
What do you recommend? I don't know of any good DSi games except Rayman. I plan to get the Bit Trip collection, so I won't be buying those.
Umm, did you mean Bit.Trip Saga? Btw, that is on 3ds.

On the Dsi, from the top of my head you should check out Shantae:Risky's Revenge, Mighty Flip Champs, Cave Story, Metal Torrent, Puzzle Planet Express, and Dark Void Zero.

Personally, I'd rank them: MGS3>MGS2>MGS1>MGS4>MGS: PW>MG2>MGS: PO>MG.
MGS4 isn't the best game ever, but it's still a great game. My main complaint is the crude, childish humor which has always been present in the MGS series but was cranked up to 11 for number 4. Drebin and his monkey just wouldn't stop belching. Also, the whole explanation for why Ocelot continued to pretend to be Liquid even after having the arm removed never clicked with me. I'd have been happier if Kojima had just left Liquid's arm attached to the end.

Bit. Trip. Saga is also for Wii. I plan to get a 3DS eventually anyhow, so I have no intention of buying them one at a time. But I'll check out those other games.

None of the Bit.Trip games are on Dsiware.

SMILE: I've got two games lined up to film this Saturday and it sounds like the pay is going to be upfront for once.

TICKED: My back is out and not being able to stand up straight is really annoying. I've been having to use a cane to get around the last few days. The kids I supervise seem to like it though and one has taken to calling me "Mr. House."

So basically it's all worth it in the end?

Frown: Teenage girls who break out singing anytime someone says something that also happens to be a song lyric. Some of them have precious little life outside of music and pop culture/fashion.

Smiled - I get to go to Islands of Adventure this Friday
Ticked - It is going to be a very long drive to get there, and a long drive back.

I live in Atlanta, friend is getting married in Boca Raton, I have to do music at the wedding and bring the equipment. So on the way down we are stopping at the theme park because I have some freetickets I will never use

Smile: 71 degrees, 33% humidity, breezy. I think I woke up in a different state this morning. :mrgreen:

Frown: I'm working. But at least I have the sliding door open to let in the awesome.
