[QUOTE="fadeetoblackk"]is paper mario that good? im excited to play it i picked it up for a dollar the other day hahafadeetoblackk

I highly enjoyed it back then! Don't know how it's held up over the years though.

I find myself going back to Street Fighter 2, Mega Man 2,3,5, X and X3, Streets of Rage 2 and the old Sonic games. I can't say which one I tend to go back to the most though...

The 8-bit Mega Man games are all about pattern memorization. You just need to play them over and over again :P
