How about falling asleep playing your not-plugged-in handheld, then waking up to find all the work you did is now lost due to not having saved for a while.

Should everything a significant part of the population thinks is bad be illegal? Alcohol, pot, "hate speech", fireworks, not wearing a seatbelt, firearms, tobacco, certain religions, pop/soda, junk food, dirty movies, gays, anti-gays, violent video games. Now I don't think all those things are bad (some are), but many do. Where do we draw the line? How should these bad things be punished? Which jurisdiction should have power (Federal? State/Province? local?) Those are the questions that should be asked regarding all laws. No, I don't think everything the major population thinks is b

I've never smoked marijuana, and never will. It's a mood altering drug, and has been associated with mood disorders. I don't need a buzz, and certainly not at the risk of permanently damaging my emotional health. The issue, for me, isn't so much about its legal status. For me, it's really about the culture. If everyone wants it, legalizing it will cause more harm than good. Why? Because if everyone wants it, they're going to get it, so whatever adversities would exist with it legalized, they would still exist with it illegalized, and then some (ie, drug cartels, black markets, etc). That m

Pressing the right button on the wrong character, monster, etc. (for example, attacking the wrong monster, or healing the wrong character). Pressing the right button on the wrong spell, skill, tactic, etc. (for example, using Firebal when meaning to heal). Letting the game control your emotions (for example, getting insanely angry, for whatever reason (made it through 9/10ths of the dungeon only to die, get killed by the same player over and over, forgot to save, etc) and end up breaking something). Playing the game at the wrong time (for example, 10 minutes before dinner time). Overconfid

I initially voted no, because I felt that they had been remade enough times already. However, upon further consideration, and after reading the comments here, I decided to change my vote. Frankly, I would be in favor of having the games remade in the style of DQ8. I know this will never happen, but if there were to be a remake of these games, that's probably the only style I'd want to play them on. Otherwise, I prefer the originals as they are, on my dusty old NES.

Congratulations! I remember when I finally beat DWII. I was close to his age, maybe a year or two older. I got stuck looking for rogue fastfinger. I spent hours wandering around from town to town scrabbling for clues. I gave up and didn't play it again for about 10 months, then decided to pick it up again. I had to remember where I was, and when I did, I decided to do a more thorough search of his last known location. Bingo! Then I realized I still had a ton left to do. When I finally beat it, it was certainly a great feeling of accomplishment, and relief! So congratulations to him, he mus

Easily DW VII. I believe my first play through was over 200 hours. However, like Wonderslime, cumulatively it would have to be DWIV, then probably DWII. On a side note: Hi Wonderslime! Nice to see you again!

Watching Bleach. So good. Subs only. Just passed the episode 200 mark.

I've got a few games on the go. Oblivion: Game of the Year Edition. Assassin's Creed. The Wheel of Time. Lemmings. Final Fantasy II. And I'm soon to be playing DQIV-DS.

That looks really good. I like the idea of the door automatically opening when you approach it, and then it closes behind you. Genius!

Why?? Is the game hard to find or something?? Well, not it's not hard to find, it's just that I can't afford to buy it. I remember YSIII for Sega, and when I saw the preview for Ark of Nepishtim, I freaked. I want to play, but just am unable to do so at present.

DarkDragoon, how I envy you.

Right now I'm in the middle of Final Fantasy 7, and Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, Game of the Year Edition. IMO, both decent games. Morrowind is crazy huge though. Really, deserving of game of the year awards.
