Picked up Last Story from where I left off. Just got done getting my ass kicked by the Last Cocoon... again.

I've gotten as far as it's 3rd form, but this guy's tough - any tips?

Currently playing Demon's Blazon on the Super Famicom. This is a top game!

And also a bit of Mega Turrican on the Genesis.
The music on this one is as I remembered it from years back. Absolutely S-U-P-E-R-B!

Just made that Last Cocoon my bitch, and I feel wonderful.

I'm about to restart Dragon Quest VI on the DS. I got pretty far the last time I played it, but like a lot of rpg's these days, I just left it there. This time I intend to finish it.

Star Wars:The Old Republic

I am enjoying it even with the F2P restrictions.

Struggling with the final boss fight in Golden Sun. Having to skip through the long dialogue each time I die is especially tedious. I really don't feel like grinding my way from Lalivero, and through the lighthouse again either.

I remember why I gave up before, but owe it to myself to finish the game before the year's end. Oh, what a night.

I have two copies of Strider for NES (and one gba port) that keep freezing when I'm about to beat the game. Yet, I keep playing.

Although I should be playing Skyrim on my family room television with hdmi connections and dolby sound, I'm playing it on my Sharp crt in my gameroom. I'm a sucker for my gamerom chair, what can I say?

I am playing Okamiden right now. I loved Okami, and I am thoroughly enjoying its sequel. It was a little slow starting out, but it is really picking up now. I just defeated the catfish ("Bullhead"), and it was a really fun boss battle.

As a bonus, I usually play the game over breakfast, and my three-year-old daughter loves to look over my shoulder while I am playing the "puppy" game. (Seriously, at this point in the game I am playing as a white puppy with a small blue-haired mermaid riding on it...it is like an crazy combination of everything my three-year-old daughter enjoys.) The boss fight against Bullhead this morning was apparently so exciting that she asked me to pause the game so that she could get her plastic sword to hold while she watched me play. (You know...in case she had to fight too.) It was adorable!

Out of boredom I've decided to pick up Donkey Kong 64 again. I'll probably just casually play through it this time around and finish it eventually. It's probably been a couple of years since I last played it so I've forgotten enough of the little things for it to still be kind of fun. I hate it when you go to play a game again and it feels like more of a speed run because you just want to get all of the items and you pretty much remember where everything is. So yay for it not being like that.

I also have Tomb Raider sitting in my PS1. I've played a little bit into it but not much. I'm about to the part that I had to stop playing it when I had the Saturn version, due to the graphics being so horrible that you can hardly even see what's going on in front of you. The PS1 version doesn't seem nearly as bad so I'm looking forward to actually being able to play it.

I've also been playing some Firepower 2000 here and there. I'm a little rusty and I haven't been able to get past level 2 yet. haha I fucking hate level 2. :evil:

For the last while I've been playing through GTA : San Andreas, trying to beat it 100% and i've never beaten the game, so this should be fun :D I also picked up Doom 3 BFG recently, so I've been playing that on the side too
