I remember my friend and I trying it back then on Xbox 360. It was fun but we didn't stick with it. I also remember hearing the Offical Xbox Magazine podcast raving about it from time to time. The early days of online multiplayer on console. It got a lot of attention.
I think about this game from time to time. I played it on DS and got stuck in the dungeon you can't use metal items in. I'd love to return to it and try and finish it sometime. I still own it on DS.
I think this was the first time I got exposed to the Active Time Battle system. What a great way to spice up turn-based combat.
I can see it being a great multiplayer/coop game.
I looked at the sunscreen and saw my quest but it didn't tell me where I had to go and I was at a point where I had many options. I was a bit impatient at the time though, so maybe next time I play it I'll figure it out.
I got to what I think was the last boss after just two sittings of a couple hours each. The game does try and mess with you a lot though, so maybe this Asgore isn't the final boss.
I'm so disappointed they didn't have an arcade cabinet this year, but I saw a lot of other interesting ornaments, none that I felt I had to have though. I'm eager to read your blog on the ones you got.
Funny thing. I always thought DoubleFine and Tim Shaffer came up with the term "psychonauts" but while I was reading Michael Pollan's "How to Change Your Mind" (all about the history of psychedelics) he mentioned "psychonauts" refering to researchers and others who experimented with psychedelics. I took it to mean this term had been around a while.
It's clear though that Tim's use of the term refers to a more psychotheraputic journey.
TIme does fly though. We went over about a half-hour and had to pay a little more. You can pay by the hour or for the whole day.
Ever since I had that launch Vita with the OLED screen I've been crazy for the OLED. I don't have one in any form right now though. I also shouldn't be spending $350 even though I have $60 in Gamestop credit right now. Maybe at Christmas or black friday? I always get tempted around that time. I may be looking for a Switch or upgrade my Xbox.
Those darn power bricks. What they heck do they do anyway, just change the current so you don't fry your Xbox?
Ha ha. Keep on writing. Gaming is not going anywhere.
I used to have that NES cart. I think Bride of Pin Bot is on one of the Hall of Fame Collections. I know I've played it before. Never Jack Bot I don't think though.
My friend and I have often dreamed of creating an arcade. I think about it every time I see an empty business space, and there are a lot of them right now. Not sure what the business prospect are of that. I just need to be rich enough to make my own in a shed.
Timeline also has one in Hanover, PA but it might be closed now. The website doesn't give times for it. I can't get my friend in there because it's on the second floor and I didn't see an elevator in a walkthrough video.
That's cool about Tilt. I'll look it up if I'm ever in Phoenix. I have a friend who lives somewhere near Tucson, I think.
