Confessions

[Norway]

Never owned any Xbox

I'm a RPG fan, but for some reason i haven't beated much of them

I have wasted so much money on virtual console -_-

Most of the times i goto a game store ''just to look'', i end up buying a game

[Stiffler]

> I have only played Zelda just abit...
> I never owned a NES or any kinda of that before a PS2 (I'm 19 so I should had..)
> I love Starcraft and was my first game because my dad played it.
> Wish I had played Zelda more, but I will never get the same experience from using a emulator.
> I hated the Mass Effect 3 ending (Who didn't?)
> I love Dynasty Warriors series, especially Empires.

Don't know what more to put, don't really have anything to be ashamed about.

I usually equip the scanty and inefficient costumes/armors, that cause cosmetic changes, to female characters in rpg's


I'm not proud of this...

Depending on where you're from, you could be able to find an old Nintendo 64, NES or SNES. For new Zelda fans, it's usually recommended to try Ocarina of Time first (Nintendo 64). We have a store out here called 3D Games that sells a lot of older games and consoles, so maybe check around your area for a store like that. eBay is also a good choice, just make sure to get a Top Rated Seller and read the description carefully.

I've only beaten one Legend of Zelda game.
Bethesda can go suck it.
Assassin's Creed may also suck it.
Black Ops 2 is a fun game.
I like the Wiimote.

Which one?

The original for NES.

Nice!

I have almost all of the Legend of Zelda games and I've never beaten any of them. The closest I got was the wind temple in Twilight Princess.

I've beat very few, on purpose. I never want to see them end, so when I get close to the end I make a new save slot and start over.

I'll admit, if I have a choice between two pant choices, I'll probably choose the one that you would choose. :D

[Wardenclyffe]

I rarely beat games because I never want them to end. I like having the option of having a lot of games to play because I still need to beat a lot of them, but that just ends up with me never wanting to play any of my games

[Mass Distraction]

I finally got my credit card to work on Steam. It was a dark day for my moneys.

[Yawackhary]

Okay this is going to be a bit long:

When I was younger, my dad and I called Mortal Kombat II "Fight" because on the Game Gear version when you start a round, a voice sample (turned out to be done by composer Matt Furniss, recently discovered that) said "Fight" and didn't know the name of the game until later.

I originally bashed the PSP as a cutdown PS2 and downplayed the Vita as in even though it is a lovely machine, it didn't have many games. Later on (can't remember on PSP but this year for the Vita) I actually got them handhelds and don't regret them at all.

Half of the Vita games are games that if I got the PS3 version, I get the Vita version for free and saw it as really good deal even though in reality I got them since it had a free game. The games needed a memory card that costs money but still I can't complain on free PlayStation All-Stars, Alien Breed, The Pinball Arcade, Sly Cooper 4 (even though I wanted it) and Jetpack Joyride that was already free to begin with.

I took back the original Phoenix Wright game on the DS due to the 2nd case that caused Mia Fey (I think it was her) to be murdered and got upset and depressed about that. I don't want to play a game that causes depression even if it is good.

I once played the 3DS in a gaming shop for something like 20 seconds and it made me completely poorly as in weak and dizzy for a full 10 minutes. It was due to that the 3D slider was on and even then my poor vision couldn't see the 3D effect anyway. Later on I did try again at another gaming shop while waiting for something with the 3D off and couldn't enjoy the game due to depth persception problems but was luckily enough to complete the stage. It is the only console that made me poorly (that and playing past 2km in the PS3 version of Jetpack Joyride made me a bit cross eyed due to the really fast scrolling rate). For this reason, it is why I don't have a 3DS and sadly have to miss out on Mario Kart 7, Super Mario 3D Land, Luigi's Mansion 2, Star Fox 64 and a couple of other games.

Now for some shorter ones:
- I don't see the appeal of phone gaming since there's only so much that you can do on a touchscreen and playing a game that realise on touchscreen as a controller doesn't feel right plus it covers the screen.
- Lost interest in Pokemon in 2000 due to an upsetting event.
- Completely lost in today's gaming society and can't understand half the things that people talk about.
- Aren't keen on Resident Evil 1 to be honest but thought it wasn't bad.
- Same thing to Ocarina of Time and Wind Waker however they are very good games still.
- Have a Steam account but the only thing there was a gifted game and not really into PC gaming (emulators asides).
- My copy of New Super Mario Bros. U is still in its packaging unwrapped due to not having a Wii U and only got it cause it was the cheapest place at the time (apart from used, the price I got it was still cheaper than now).
- Found GTA IV really disappointing and annoying (Roman, Brucie and that Mc family all nagging you to take them somewhere while you are trying do a mission and get somewhere in the game) and that puts me off GTA V.
- Don't like most sports games (with exceptions) due to FIFA and mouldly oldly football games nobody wants are everywhere especially car boot sales where everything you see is a PS2 football game.
- Still call Namco Bandai Namco out of habit and Atari between 2001-2009 Infogrames. Oh and seeing Sega called SEGA by the younger Sonic fans makes me twitch.

[SuperMasterGamer]

I haven't played a single Sonic game for almost a year.

I don't know why I stopped playing.

[CosmykTheDolfyn]

One time, I lost a copy of Mario Tennis for the N64 in a snow drift. The awesome thing was, a month later after the snow melted, I found the game laying on the ground where the snow drift had melted away.
10 minutes with a hair dryer, and it was working fine. It still works. That is why the N64 was AWESOME!!!

Pretty much me as well. Just spent the last few days having an awesome time with Bioshock Infinite while I was eager to get the end to find out what was going on, I also didn't want it to finish.

Same with your last point as well. I have so many games from the recent sales to play that I don't end up playing them. Will be now though.

I generally don't understand people who buy games or whatever and never open them. It's just so weird. Yet, I have my Ninja Masters cart for NeoGeo X sealed and I propably won't open it either.

To put it bluntly, people collect stamps, fish, coins, cars and I collect games. I just like having them sealed to then sell on a later price like my Zelda consoles or sealed TP, WW, OoT3D etc. Then give it on to someone else to take care of when I'm dead.

I generally don't like some of the Zelda fanbase

Can I ask you to elaborate on this one? I only ask because I have never noticed anything displeasing from them myself.

I've come across so many of them as being elitist dorks. They take pride in saying "CoD is a shitty generic bland series that reuses the same old crap etc" yet the Zelda series has been doing it for the last 25 years.
Or any level of critcism towards the Zelda series(no matter how well constructed) is instantly wiped off with "Go play CoD on your Xbox".
If it's not that, then they generalise the Xbox 360/PS3 as being inferior consoles with crap games despite the fact I've had some of the best gaming experiences ever on the Xbox (Bioshock, Dead Space, Journey, MAss Effect, the insane amount of hours and matches in Street Fighter 4, The Witcher 2, Ni No Kuni etc)
Lastly was when I was saying how I thought Fi was one of the most annoying characters ever, people will blindly defend her or be insulted it by what I say because they can't admit the Zelda series has flaws/bad game choices.

I love Ocarina of Time but if I want to be completely level head, fair, balanced and unbiased about the game, I could pick out problems with it. Not as easily as Skyward Sword but I know of it's few problems. Some (some) of them just come off as smug elitists.

In terms of story yea, if that's what you mean but gameplay wise no.

[TheDarkOcarina]

I have never played a Final Fantasy game.

[qsdcv]

Even when games end badly (i.e when bad conquers good), I like to imagine that good still somehow conquers the bad later on. :P

Slash when their open
Sheild when they attack you
Use your newly acquired weapon/item for that dungeon boss
Use your newly acquired weapon/item outside of the dungeon to find new areas
Hookshot is always the same
Tunics have the same properties
Different swords but really only need THE MASTER SWORD
Bosses die after 3 cycles(after you attack the obvious exposed weakness)
and there's so much more

How exactly can you say the Zelda series hasn't been re-using the same gameplay for the last 25 years? That's one of the big points of the Zelda games to familiarise your self with the gameplay from the other games. Not only that but it's the story for the Zelda games that changes. The Zelda games are just as guilt as any CoD game, because that's what the players want.
