I am gald you are enjoying it! You will probably beat it before me, however; so, you will have to let me know your thoughts.

(Playing through the first part of the game inspired me to pick up Arkham Asylum, and I am currently obsessed with completing all of the Riddler's challenges.)

It's fun completing all of the Riddler challenges.

I have a lot of games going at once right now, so I don't know when I'll finish Brave and the Bold, but it's a fun game. The controls irritate me a bit, but that's the fault of the console, not the game itself. I've just never really liked Wii controls. They just don't feel intuitive to me and Brave and the Bold really plays like something that could have easily worked on a regular PS3 or Xbox controller.

But I like the combat, the cartoon graphics, and even though I generally like a more serious Batman, the humor is actually entertaining me. I kind of want to try the handheld version of this game too one of these days

I've been playing Dynasty Warriors 5 (PS2). Mindless hack-n-slash with some very minor RPG-elements added to this particular entry. Just got it in a trade (very scratched, I'm sorry to say, but amazingly I have not run into 1 hiccup yet).

Even though it's so basic, I'm enjoying it. That could be because the last few games I played through were a bit more in-depth and maybe my brain is enjoying the mindless break.

But then I got to a mission I played through like 10 times, and I couldn't beat. So I gave-up and popped in Dynasty Warriors 2 (PS2) from my collection instead, that I hadn't played for years; basically it was like playing for the first time again. A little less graphical wow, and a bit of "fog" in the distance, and the text-boxes and style were different. But other than that, it was basically the same game minus the very minor RPG-elements.

3 entries later, and very little has changed in the series. It's amazing the series has lasted so long with so little change.

Who would have thought that Michael Jackson would make the perfect soundtrack for Marvel Vs Capcom 2.

I've been playing the Michael Jackson remix version of MVC2 on the DC and I can't believe how much the soundtrack has re-motivated me to play this game again. Here is a video of someone else playing the game.

A Michael Jackson soundtrack for MvC2 is more awesome than it sounds.

Having bought a new VMU (my first one ran out of space), I have recently started Shenmue for Dreamcast. Although I have not fought anyone yet in this game, I am enjoying the realistic vibe this game exudes. Unlike many RPGs I have played, this game has a feature that allows the time to progress from day to night. Additionally, this game reminds me so much of a typical martial arts film, but that does not make it any less badass when compared to other RPGs that came out at that time (and even today).
