AMEN... A-M-E-N

NEVER EVER BUY MARIO MIX. IT IS A WASTE OF MONEY

"oh but its GREAT for beginners!" you say

well so is extreme 1 and 2! even max 2! It's called BEGINNERS MODE! TADA

Well I've never actually had the privelage to try real DDR so S-O-R-R-Y :P But for me it's great, just cause I love t3h Mario songs. So PBTPTTBTBTPTPTTBttt. If I tried real DDR in the arcade (which they removed for some reason :() or the ones for PS2 I might find DDr Mario mix a little too easy, but as I said, just cause you don't like it, doesn't mean that it's not a fun game or that nobody else should enjoy it. So again, *blows a raspberry* PBTBTTPBTPTBTBTBTTT Keep bad comments to yourself

Quick querstion... kinda on-topic... maybe...

How many here have ordered something from sites like Play-Asia, and how long does it typically take your orders to come in?

FF10 is a true classic with a beautiful story, characters, and battle system but the only problum is that every dungeon is just a straight line with no twists and turns. You barely notice.

Phew, I'm glad I just finished re-playing FFVII(on the 23rd, no less), cuz I knew my sister got my brothers PS2 games and I'd never see my dear PS2 again. BUT my sister's boyfriend got us a new PS2!!!! EEEEE! I is happy.
Anyways, on to the games!
I got Kingdom Hearts. You can probably tell by my s/n my opinion of that game. But to those who can't tell, it's SQUEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!
I got Fire Emblem: Sacred Stones. I haven't gotten around to playing that on much because I promised my sister(not the one who got my bros the games) that I wouldn't play it while she was away at my grandpaents.
I also got Soul Calibur III(well, actually, that one was for my bro,lol) and I'm loving it! I like creating my own characters and I was so physced when I saw Talim was in it!
I got Karoake Revolution 3 but I won't save it now because I'm not giving anyone else a chance to get any high scores(I already maxed out the high score in My Immortal ^^;).
I got Yourself! Fitness. My mom and I keep saying we're going to try it, but we're so busy, we keep forgetting! That and it's gonna be a pain pulling my brother away from his Battlefront 2. My room(where the old PS2 is) is way too small and messy to work out in.
I got Shaman King: Path of Spirits(again, that was actually for my brother) and I really like that one. But, again, I must wait for my sister. Boo hoo.
Huh. The only game that we got that I don't like is Battlefront 2. Oh, well. I'm liking it less and less as my brothers haven't ceased playing it since Christmas.

I got fire emblem: the sacred stones for gameboy advance and lord of the rings: the third age for gamecube. FE:SS's music isn't as good as the original american release, but, otherwise, it's just as fun as the first one. LOTR:TA is alright thus far, but i think i liked LOTR: The Two Towers and LOTR: Return of the King better. Still, another LOTR RPG = great fun.

LOTR: TA was a good game but I can agree the ealier installations were better.

I`m using some of my 100$ to by Unlimited SaGa for 5$.

Yes, I know that Unlimited SaGa is a crappy game, but I just wanna try it and 5$ is no sweat off my back. I`m gonna use the rest of the money to buy Wild Arms: Alter code f when it gets cheaper.
