Quote:I've been playing a lot of Capcom vs. SNK 2 (the superior Dreamcast version) with my friends. What a fun game.
Yes, its a lot of fun... and I honestly think the Cube version is fine. I don't mind the size of the d-pad.
Quote:And you won't be needing FFA anymore once Sword of Mana comes out. It's coming out in September, last I heard. Might have been delayed though.
SoM sounds good, but I want to know more. My main concern is the story. I hope they don't change it too much... the story in FFA is VERY sad, sure, but I like it that way... I wouldn't want them changing it to be happier. Why am I worried about that? Because one thing I've heard is that Willy lives and comes out of the castle with you... not a good precident.
But I'll wait to hear more. And it'll still be great either way... playing from the girl's point of view should be interesting too, given that that would require some major story additons/rewrites (how about all that time she's captured?). I'm looking forward to seeing how it turns out, when compared to the original that I like so much...
Oh, and as I said, I've mostly been playing N64 for the past three weeks. Sure, I have plenty of unfinished Cube games, but for some reason when I go to play console games I'd rather play some of my N64 ones and not Mario, Metroid, or Zelda... I don't know...
Today I played some more Banjo-Tooie. I got it last December, but really didn't play it much... just a few hours. Today I unlocked the second level (the mine). It still plays VERY, VERY similar to Rare's previous platformers, though... which is alright, but after a while you wish for more variety. Oh well, its still fun.
I do wish it didn't have framerate issues, though... but on large-scale scenes it definitely tends to slow down. Oh well.
