Posted August 19, 2006 His dad plays more games than he does. Or so I hear (he's better than him at smash). What a lucky guy. Chickens will grow teeth before than anyone older than me in my family thinks that gaming is actually good and not a kiddie hobbie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 20, 2006 His dad plays more games than he does. Or so I hear (he's better than him at smash). Hehe. We used to play Matches where the winner gets £5 from the other person. My Uni fund grew so much at one point, then he took about £200 off me in the space of a few days...My mum has banned these matches ever since. My dad is ALWAYS playing games. He works at IBM so he gets a few hours a day to spare. I remember at work he bet £50 he could beat his manager at a game of smash and he lost...this was shortly followed by his secretary phoning me and telling me he had left work early He also completed FF9 during 2 weeks at WORK, because he kinda gets bored. My mum on the other hand NEVER plays games, but hopefully the Wii will change this. It's just so appealing :wink: Anyway, I'm guessing that when Zelda:TP comes out, we're going to be having a race to see who completes it first (without the guide). I really hope they add lots of side quests to this game, like they did to Wind Waker. They really added so much to the game. I'd also like the inclusion of the Gold Skulltulas again, because it took me a while to get EVERY one in both ocarina and Master Quest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 21, 2006 MMm... don't know what to say about this, mught be cool, might not be cool, maybe they'll ahve the option to turn it off. We'll see. Even if turns out bad (which I doubt) we still have the GC version. That's a very big if, it will probably rock. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 21, 2006 What if they have a sword training arena where you can't actually die, but you just restart and train your skills and quickness with a sword. Hmm, will they slow down the movements of enemies? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
