I recently imported Earthbound 3, or 2, depending on how you look at it, and for those of you who liked Earthbound and had no idea that finally, after 10 years it's sequel was actually finished, I definitly recommend getting it. Although I personally enjoyed EB a LOT more, even though absolutely everyone thinks the new one is way better. But maybe after a decade I just expected too much. But after looking back at the 3D EB that was supposed to come out, I'm certainly glad it didn't. a 3D Mother game... it just seems wrong in almost every aspect. Although I think my expectations are getting a little too high. Considering I hated almost every FPS that came out this christmas except CoD4. I didn't even enjoy Bioshock. System Shock 2 was WAY better, although I never actually got around to finishing it SS2. Bioshocks "Plot Twist" was so obvious and stupid. - but now I'm ranting.

(I'm not including the Orange Box in my hate list, Ep 2 and Portal were like amazing. And by like, I mean, they were incredible. The end credits to Portal alone was worth the whole thing.) Although I REALLY wish that instead of letting me sell my HL2 game as a "Gift" for having purchased HL2 and Ep1 they gave everyone a free downloadable game for up to 10 bucks. Like, the X-Com series, or the Original Doom, or something. I mean 110$ on the collectors edition of HL2, then 20$ for Ep.1. And then I have to re-purchase them? And then I "Get" to give away my Ep.1 and HL2? I'm not trying to sound selfish or anything, but that's pretty lame. Although HL1:Source is pretty sweet, but I suppose I could've just used a credit card and purchased HL:Source off of Steam for like, 4.99$ or whatever. But I like having the CD's. Plus HL2 came on a DVD instead of 5 friggin' CD's. I'm pretty sure HL2 came on that many, but maybe I'm just crazy, I don't actually know. I think I head someone say that once... maybe, haha. But for some reason in HL:Source the farther and farther you get into the game less and less bodies of water are fancy HL2 water...

But back to Earthbound. Even if your japanese sucks, it's not too complicated to understand, that and there are so many character animations for a GBA game, it's insane, so you always know what's going on. And there are a million walkthroughs online, and some people have even posted the entire games script translated. So yeah...

Wow. My first attempt at a Blog sucks. What the hell are you supposed to write in these things anyway?

Uh... if your neighbours are too lazy to make a password for their wireless internet connection, steal it.

Well, my laptops got 7 minutes of reserve battery left, which is probably for the better. Maybe I should read someone elses' blogs to see what everyone else is rambling about. Then maybe I can make my Blog page not quite as lame.

Also, thanks for the invite to the FPS Union? or Something? If whoever invited me actually ends up reading this. Although I have no idea why I'd get an invite. I barely post in any forums... But what the hell. I do only play FPS with a few exceptions. Elite Beat Agents is amazing for the DS. Soo much fun. The japanese one is pretty sweet too. Considering the songs are Japanese. Anyhow. My laptops dead.
