Glad to hear you got your problem cleared up Morgan. My troubles seem to be a thing of the past as well. Remember when I said I couldn't get Legion to survive the Suicide Mission? Well, as it turns out, it wasn't his fault.

I kept picking Samura to lead the 1st team because every time I picked her, Miranda would say something like "Skilled and experienced; excellent choice!" I took this as meaning she was qualified for it. As it turns out though...not so much. On a whim, I picked Jacob to lead the team, and sure enough, Legion got the door closed in time. Whoopee!

That's one problem solved. Now it's time to bust out my code to get that Blackhole Gun, and the Collector Armor. They look pretty bad ass from the video I've seen of them thus far.

EDIT: Well shit. Even after reading what happened to you, I did the same fucking thing. I made a new account at ME2.com and put the code into that one, not realizing that I already had an account linked to my console.

Fuck.

All you gotta do is either do the Live Chat with EA or call them. I was on the phone for maybe 40 minutes, but I obviously got it taken care of.

Here's their number: 866-543-5435

You just need to know to tell them your gamertag and the two email accounts.

Which version of FF3? Famicom, Wonderswan or DS?

DS. I've had to restart twice because of that damn "QUICK-SAVE thing failing. But luckily I've only put in about 5min each time.

Good choice... its improved in almost every conceivable way.

I'm not fond of the 'job system' branch of the early series, and in this game it showcases why: there are too many places where certain jobs are essentially required and they all level up separately.

My core group was thief/monk/fighter/red mage and it held up pretty well, with few detours into dragoon, viking, dark knight, black mage, bard, and scholar along the way. My final group was Ninja/Master/Knight/Sage

^ Hmm. I'm starting out with a team of a Warrior, Red Mage, Black Mage, and another Warrior (might change him to Red Mage) but I'll see where that gets me. :D

HOOKED on Modern Warfare 2, AGAIN.

This is my second time through the campaign, this time on my desktop as opposed to my notebook. Been getting a lot better at the online, now being able to get higher killstreaks and such.

Oh, by the way; I re bought COD4:MW on my PC due to the disc getting scratched on the 360, and this port of the game is so unbelievably better. This version features custom maps and 3rd party game modes for the online that you CAN'T get on the console versions of this game.

PC gaming is always the way to go, man.

I picked up the original arcade version of Contra from XBOX LIVE Marketplace. It's kind of fun, but I think I like the NES version better, even if it is technically/graphically inferior, it just plays better. I'm working on getting all of the achievements, I only need one more, for completing the game in LIVE co-op. Every time I've tried, my partner has either sucked badly, or has lagged out on me.

Stupid FFIII and the pointless Onion Knight Class...what good is a class that's only godly when you've hit Lv90+? Couldn't even make it decent until then, had to give it horrible stats right up to that point...

Ah well. Got that done. Moved onto FFIV...just about to hit the Sealed Cave...

Am liking the augments system, theres a certain...satisfaction to twincasting Ultima for max damage when I'm only in my 40's

Meanwhile, game is so much harder than on Snes...

What else...beat Bayonetta on normal...quite enjoyed it, although...was the main character supposed to have this inhuman subtext about her, or was that just me?
Last boss made me rage until I gave up and ran from everything in case it was a black hole. Was surprisingly easy then.
MY BACK HURTS JUST LOOKING AT HER STAND!!!
At least its less noticeable with the Katana

Ah well...will probably finish IV in a day or two...then on to V...I've heard good things about the GBA translation...although I've heard questionable things about the GBA translation for VI...can someone clarify just what the most striking differences are?

You're trying to plug through as many games before XIII comes out as well eh?

I've started on the GBA version of V and have no complaints so far.

Haven't heard anything about the VI gba transfer though. Well if not there's always the Snes version (yay ROMS).

Suddenly have the urge to buy Bioshock 1 and 2...

But mostly, I'm still playing Mass Effect 2. Insanity is a goddamn bitch, but I finally managed to get Garrus...I think. Kinda shitfaced when I got home last night so Shepard's adventures are a little fuzzy.
