Oh, what happened?

Well I got suspended and... nah I'm just kidding. I wasn't feeling well.

So don't listen to Master Boom because he's trying to make it sound like I did get suspended.



@Master Boom: Well I died like 10 times in Level 3 alone... so that means I've probably died about 25 times already in the whole game. Reminded me of the times when first-grader me wanted to rage quit... well almost.

You should have seen the amount of times I died in Zelda II.

@Toasty: Thanks~!

I want to start playing the Zelda franchise. I remember playing a Zelda game on the original gameboy but I don't remember anything about it. Where should I start? From the beginning again?

I think you're talking about Link's Awakening Darth, and it's probably one of the best handheld Zelda games around.

Gah! That game made me so mad. Stupid flying heads and villagers turning into bats and random crap killing you all the time.

If it was on the original Game Boy, it was probably Link's Awakening. That was a great game. I downloaded Link's Awakening DX (the enhanced Game Boy Color port) right when the Nintendo eShop arrived for the 3DS, and I beat it three times right afterwards.

Anyways, there's not really a best place to start, since the games don't really follow a set story. There's minor connections between most of the games, but for the most part they all sort of stand alone (other than the direct sequels, like Majora's Mask and Phantom Hourglass). My personal favorites are Wind Waker and Skyward Sword, but they might be hard to play on an emulator if you don't have a Gamecube or a Wii. I'd recommend playing either A Link to the Past or Ocarina of Time first, since those games seem to be the most consistently loved by fans, and they also sort of set up some of the recurring story elements and characters.
If you're looking for a handheld one to start with though (you mentioned you had an emulator on your PSP earlier), I'd say go with either Link's Awakening (DX or regular) or Oracle of Ages/Seasons. There was also a port of A Link to the Past on Game Boy Advance, which I really enjoyed (I've never even played the SNES version actually).

LOL, so many suggestions, I probably just made you more confused.

Hi Imouto!! You're not feeling well? I'll make you some soup.

Yes I am confused. Unfortunately I'm not a nintendo guy so I don't have a Wii or Gamecube. So I don't think I can get the full Zelda experience. Awakening huh? I think I remember having good emotions about it. Though I only remember controlling link walking on a beach or a place with tall grass or something. Maybe that was pokemon.

INORITE.

NOT TO MENTION THAT SUPER SCARY GAME OVER SCREEN DIDN'T HELP EITHER.



I-I mean...

I'll be heaps of help for my stomach aches. I've been really hungry a lot lately in the past few days. Every time I'd eat a big meal I get hungry again. Which is weird since I eat a lot.

Darth, I am disappoint.

Nah just kidding. Okay, question for anyone who wants to answer it. Which one should I get, a PS3 or Xbox 360? My classmates are telling me to get a PS3 but my sister wants the 360 so she can get DC2 for Kinect. SO I AM COMPLETELY TORN APART. HELP. Which one is better?

[Toasty Warrior]

That's the wrong game over screen Rocket, this is the real one:

[Rocket]

I actually find that the one I posted is a lot more scarier than the original.

You're welcome!! So tough choice, tough choice. Well I prefer PS3 but that's just me (just got one by the way. TALES OF GRACES kitten YEAH)
And pretty much a lot come for both the 360 and PS3 anyway so..... well I just ave a bias to PS3, so I would say get that

I have a 360, but if you play video games a lot, you'd probably be happier with the PS3. From what I hear, it has a lot more exclusives than the 360 does.

But, on the other hand, if you want more motion gaming, I'd say the 360 is the way to go. The Kinect is awesome; I actually enjoyed Kinect Sports more than Wii Sports (though they're both great fun obviously). On top of that, I don't even think Sony supports the "Move" or whatever it was called anymore.
DC2 is also great. I don't play it too much, but I always enjoy watching my friend talk his dance moves up, only to drunkenly stumble around when the game starts.

Anyways, I guess it really just depends what you're looking for. I don't really play games enough to warrant the purchase now, but I'd probably get a PS3 if I had the time and money for it. Plus, there's the Wii U coming out this year, and I already bought a 3DS last year, so I need to really cut back on my video game spending, LOL.

[Toasty Warrior]

Well, when you look at it Rocket both systems have their strengths and weaknesses. The Xbox 360 has better online support with Xbox Live, but just to play online you have to be a gold member, and the consoles are usually at higher risk to go out sooner while the PS3 has somewhat worse online support, but the advantage is free online play, and you don't have to worry about the console going out as much, trust me I learned that the hard way. I owned an Xbox 360 before, and got both the E74 error, and RROD, but after getting a PS3 I haven't had since a problem.

[Rocket]

Haaa. I'm so torn apart by two epic consoles I don't own. I'm considering getting the PS3 though. Thanks for your suggestions guys~!

Now the only thing that's in the way is my sister wanting an Xbox 360. Also, I'm gonna apply for a job in April and hopefully start working mid-June. MONEEEHHHHHZ!!!

Anyways. Seeing as Omega changed his name to Greed-sama due to his love for Greed and Jordan changing his name to FoolishYoungling because he calls himself a fool... I've been digging Ocarina of Time since I found my cartridge a few weeks ago, so should I change my name to Twinrova or something?

[Darth Krypt]

Should I change my name to Law then?

And YAY Shanai is joining the Playstation club!

[Toasty Warrior]

I doubt I'll change my name since I like it as it is.

[Phantom_999]

Should I change my name to Law then?

NO, "surgeon of Death"!!

[Rocket]

Thanks Kev for reminding me of Trauma Center.

[Shadow Wolf]

so should I change my name to Twinrova or something?

Hmm... I think Rocket sounds cool. But it's all about what we prefer, so if you love Twinrova, then I say "go for it"!

I don't think I'll change it either, it usually just serves to confuse people.

I doubt I'll change my name since I like it as it is.

Those are also the main reasons as to why I think having one permanent username is ideal. Then again, people might get bored with the same username after a while.

Should I change my name to Law then?

Hehehe, you reminded me of Tekken.

And now, we won't be with DK, but with the Law. Hmm... it has a nice ring.

[Darth Krypt]

Should have used that from the start. Now people here already know me as Darth. So Shanai, are you gonna change it?
