Not exactly "vidya game music", but video game themed. It's the sort of saccharine sweet silly sort of thing that you'll either find absolutely lovely, or find bleh.

Glory of Heracles, a fun little romp into Greek mythology and such, the will of the gods, angering them.

Nightfire 007 is more casual, since my disc is iffy and I couldn't getpast one mission, so I had to cheat to unlock all the levels.

Pokemon White 2 is my newest addiction and I'd love to get to Black 2, though I'd like to play Heart Gold before that, so I'm caught up on all the generations.

Haven't been able to post in so long, hope I'm still "welcome", heh

I was doing alright until I hit this one room of mages and they just own me in a couple of hits. Very frustrating.

The Fade section requires some creative use of the different transformations you get access to. I'm pretty sure I know which room you're talking about because it took a few tries for me too.

The burning man is immune to fire spells and can throw AOE fireballs that recharge pretty fast, and there is also another transformation that is resistant to magic that has 2 spells that work as a combo - you can freeze an enemy and then shatter them.

I mostly spammed fireballs because they knock enemies down and they recharge quickly.

This deserves serious attention. This was a random level theme from the Ducktales game for the NES, the theme was itself far too epic to just be a random level theme, but what has been done here, is truly magical:-CryptoLutheran

The moon level; some of the best NES music.

I'm near the end of it, haven't played it in a while though. I have a lot of games to go back and finish.

I was enjoying the Mega Man X series I grew up loving (Zero being my favorite) - and that also goes for the other series coming from Megaman.​

Unfortunately, I am a bit upset at Capcom at the ways that they have effectively soured a good game in light of what they did to the creator of it by not treating him properly....and thus, currently I have been focused on also studying game politics and trying to advocate for others who've been harmed by the mess Capcom has made.

In the event you were not aware of it, heard of the game Mighty No.9 by chance? Truly amazing - Would think it'd be something worth supporting - as the creator of it made the Megaman/Megaman X series...but was eventually ripped off by the people who stole it from him...and he is currently on his own. Mega Man was created by Keiji's mentor and Megaman Zero was designed by Keiji and X was designed by someone else on his team, but ultimately Megaman X was Keiji's creation.....and Capcom - being for the issue of corporate profit - ended up not listening to the fans or respecting Keiji in his work.'


In many respects, it's similar to what occurred for Walt Disney when his original creation of Oswald the Lucky Rabbit was taken away from him (for all those students of animation history who know Oswald’s bizarre story - )....and Walt it go by simply starting over - and creating Mickey Mouse independently to gain prominence.

We have a game night at work every month or so. We started out with people bringing in their consoles and playing Call of Duty but recently switched to Team Fortress 2 on our laptops.

I don't have a console and a business laptop isn't capable of running the PC stuff these days, but I did find DuckTales: Scrooge's Loot on the iPhone a few days ago. Very impressive for an iPhone and bringing back the voice actors from the show is outstanding.

Mobile platform games have definitely come a long way and will continue to do so. I am still playing loads of Europa Universalis IV but I am getting more into Crusader Kings II because there are some absolutely incredible mods I want to get involved with and the online community is pretty solid.

 

[gord44]

I'm back playing darkest hour (favorite paradox game) with the kaiserreich mod. Love me some alternative history.

If you are ever interested in EU multiplayer, I play in some very regularly scheduled big matches and I can invite you to the relevant Steam groups.

Also I want to try Darkest hour. I want to get good at Vicky II as well as learn Hearts of Iron. That's quite an ambitious lineup for me.
