Its not a bad game. Its just plagued with odd controls, a bad camera, and the humour is inferior to the brilliance of Earthworm Jim 1 and 2.
Main reason for that is that the game was basically unfinished when it was released, a lot of content was cut (I watched a old trailer for it and its very different from the final product).
I'm about to go to the arcade to play Blazblue, Tatsunoko vs Capcom, and hopefully some King Of Fighters XIII.
I am EXTREMELY jealous!
(Its been a very long time since I've played a fighting game in an ACTUAL arcade. The only ones that seem to exist these days are either lurking in the back of cinemas/bowling alleys/airports, or a handful down the arcade strips along the coast, and even then they are usually old ones!)
I wish I had more money, then I could buy a arcade machine, or build a MAME one for fighting games (And I'd argue that its morally correct for me, as I own at least one version of the following games: Guilty Gear XX (x1), Street fighter 2(x2) and 3, AND Alpha 2(x2) and 3, Blazblue CS, Marvel Vs Capcom 2(x2), Capcom Vs SNK 1 and 2(x2), Jojo's Bizzare Adventure, Virtua Fighter 3, Soul Blade, Soul Calibur, Tekken 3, Tekken Tag Tournament(This is the only one I don't currently own. But I did get it new when it was out) and KOF2002UM(I got it on live arcade)).
EDIT: In fact I might as well build a arcade shell and just put a Dreamcast (CvsSNK, Jojo, Soul Calibur, Virtua Fighter 3tb), a Xbox (SF2&3,MvsC2, CvsSNK2, GGXX, DOA 1 2 & 3, Soul Calibur 2), and Xbox 360 (KOF2002UM, MvsC2, SSF4, B:CS, DOA4, Virtua Fighter 5, and MvsC3 when its out) in there.
(I wonder how one would do controls though. I guess I could use switchable boards, and modify a few controllers and hook them up to arcade stuff)
Unfortunately I couldn't go after all though, my parents wouldn't let me saying it was too late (it was 5:30PM) =/ Considering the country I'm in and the stuff that's been happening I see where they're coming from but I still think they over react a bit.
Had it since xmas and finally started demons souls. I dont consider myself hardcore or even particularly good at games but the difficulty of ds has been waay overstated. I couldnt see myself completing this using melee but as a magic user, it seems to get easier (obsessive grinding on that reaper in 4-2 helps). Noone would be talking about the difficulty if this was released 10 years ago, its not a hard game if u take it 1 enemy at a time. ive just beaten the dragon god demon which was awesome. Felt more like a puzzle than a boss fight. Hoping the last 4 or 5 bosses dont make me eat my words (im sure they will)
Just finished Megaman 3.
Assisted by the rewind tool. (Used it quite a bit unfortunately)
Its odd how ridiculously harder Megaman 9 and 10 are to the first three...
Played it some more on the hardest difficulty with M.Bison (dictator).
Didn't complete arcade mode though, Seth was just too hard to beat with a charge character...
Also had trouble with Fei Long, and Adon. They are incredibly quick and hard to keep up with.
Was much better on my arcade stick than with a controller though. Once you get used to it, it helps quite a bit with combos.
360.
Its safe to assume when I talk about modern console games that it will be on the 360.
(I have 44 360 games to about 5 PS3 games! XD)

Well, that's Grim Fandango completed for the fifth time. *sigh* I want to play it again. It's too good.
I think now I'll start on that Penumbra: Overture and see what that's like. I also started Aquaria a little while ago so I'll be working my way through that now too.
I've been meaning to give Grim Fandango another go. I'm not sure if it'd be my second or third play... I think pretty soon I'm going to follow my Kingdom Hearts series run with a LucasArts series run, Monkey Island included. All 14 LucasArts adventure games in order of release.

I've tried streaming dude, and i cant seem to make it work! And now i got a quad processor and a good video card. If u know how to stream i would like u to give me a tutorial or step by step.

You might want to browse my threads for the Monkey Island and Sam & Max Races. The first few pages of them (i.e. the parts before the racing starts) have a lot of advice and possibly even step-by-step instructions for broadcasting on Livestream.

BTTF episode 1
The Devil's Playhouse 303 last scene
TDP 304
TDP 305
S&M 205: What's New, Beelzebub.
...it was a bit surreal.
So, weekend experience tells me that every episode of TDP has tons more and less linear gameplay than "It's About Time".
I feel your pain.

My family gave it to me for Valentines day, but I think they got it for me so they could play:p
It's fun and cute.
I think now I'll start on that Penumbra: Overture and see what that's like. I also started Aquaria a little while ago so I'll be working my way through that now too.
Plus, I still want to stream it. Hopefully without burning out before I get started this time.
I CHALLENGE ANYONE AND EVERYONE THAT HAS IT TOO

Just bought about 26 games on steam, plus some games on GOG I haven't gotten around to playing yet.
