Pokemon Black and White Update- Release Date September 18!

Now that there's a release date, I'll be sure to see if I can get a copy of this game! The detail looks great, battle system looks awesome and that's about it. I'm not sure if the game will hold my high expectations, but we'll have to wait and see!

My EarthBound Addiction

Hello, my name is VGMaster64, and I'm an EarthBound addict. I swear, there is something about this game that always makes me want to play it over and over again. As of now, I don't own a copy of the masterpiece. If I had a load of money to spend, this would be first dibs. I have only rom data of the game. I have the game installed on my Wii, on my GBA with Mother 1+2, Mother 3 on a DS Lite flashcart, and EarthBound on my USB drive to play on whatever computer I desire. I pretty much have EarthBound wherever I go. I'm pretty sure for some people, they might think that I'm crazy. Some people might say that it's perfectly fine. If you love a certain thing you'd be crazy to do just about anything for it. It's a fact of life.

I can't really be sure how many files or times I have played EarthBound. I've beaten the EB on my Wii and starting a 2nd file, I have1 file filled out on Mother 1+2 and I have another file to finish there, I've played through Mother 3 about twice, but I plan to play it again once I have a official cart of the game. Finally I have 3 or 4 EB files to finish on the emulator. I beat the game on my laptop and starting a new file there, I also have an EB set up at my Grandma's place, and I just started that. So you can pretty much tell that I know this game backwards and forwards, but why do I play it so much? I really have no idea really, I just seem to have really enjoyed the story, the characters, the sillyness and the whole moral that if tells in the end. EarthBound is one of those game where you just don't know why you love it so much, but you continue to play itover and over again. I bet some people at Starmen.net would understand those reasons.

A ton of my friends can't see the replay value of EarthBound. I got my girlfriend convinced to play it, but she would need some time to figure out when she can, because she and I are extremely busy with school and finals coming up next week, so not much time for play. Well, I'll just leave this post as it is so I can get back to work and you can ponder about something while I'm gone: Has there been a game/RPG in your life where you just kept playing over and over again? I'd like to hear what you have to say!

New Fire Emblem Game and Info!

The new Fire Emblem game has been announced! Horray! There a decent amount of info for this game and it kind of shocks me that Marth isn't the main character, but it's going to be a custom made character that'll be played through the entire game. Here are some of the details just to see what I mean.

Title: Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem – Hero of Light and Shadow

Details:
- Due out on July 15th in Japan
- Wi-Fi support for 2 players
- Marth is no longer the lead character
- You control a recruit in the Knights of Altea
- You are the main character
- Create a character with 'My Unit'
- Customize gender, eye, hair, and face styles
- These choices affect conversations with fellow knights
- New scenarios for the My Unit character
- Prologue which follows the My Unit character
- Side story with a new map
With the idea of having new scenarios, side stories, and the outcome of your character affects the way you have conversations with your knights, makes me think a ton about Chrono Trigger. Though I'm not saying that it's very similar to Chrono Trigger, I'm just saying that it has that sort of similarity with the whole alternate outcome and choices you make through out the game. None the less, it sounds like a pretty great game! If more details show up, I'll let you guys know.

My Times With Tales Of Phantasia!

I just felt like talking about this game for a bit, because I haven't played this game in a while. It's been years! I remember purchasing the game at Nintendo World in New York. I bought about 3 RPG's at that store and a bunch of other games. Once I got home, it was a huge gaming frenzy. I think that I started Tales of Phantasia first and after a while, I stopped because it got a bit hard for me and I just put it away. As of now I plan to restart this game after I finish up Pokemon Soul Silver.

I should be grateful that I have this game, because this game never came out in the U.S. during the SNES times, until it was re-released on the GBA. I hope to play this game very soon. It would have to be during the summer time, because I have 2 weeks left of school and I REALLY need to keep up on my work.
