Comments on: An Abundance of Riches http://forge.ironrealms.com/2006/11/08/an-abundance-of-riches/ A blog on virtual worlds, games, and digital content, from Matt Mihaly Tue, 06 Jan 2009 09:38:30 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0.3 by: Ronald Watts http://forge.ironrealms.com/2006/11/08/an-abundance-of-riches/#comment-2569 Fri, 10 Nov 2006 03:12:37 +0000 http://forge.ironrealms.com/2006/11/08/an-abundance-of-riches/#comment-2569 I'm buying a Gamecube and WindWalker. I hope it isn't as disapointing as you make out. I saw Twilight Princess on X-Play yesterday, and I love the look of it. One of my fave things on UO was fishing, I do a lot of fishing on Imperian, and Fishing is my highest skill on Runescape.. So I loved the look of the fishing for the Zelda game with the Wii controller. If I had the money, I would buy a Wii, but I'll probably need to wait a year or two before the price comes down.

I loved the X-Men Legends games and MUA did improve on alot of things which was great but I couldn't get behind the cast. I love the Marvel universe and it was great that I could play my 4 favorite characters, Wolverine, Spider-man, Deadpool and Iron man but the rest of the cast was sort of "meh" and the Villans were like the bottom of the barrel to me. but then again you can't get much worse than Apocolypse in the Marvel universe. The cut sceanes were great as well just like the last two games next time around I want more and longer just like that! Guitar Hero 2, right up there with you on that one. Same with Supream Commander. It looks like exactly what I want from a RTS As for the others I'm not a huge fan of shooters or spy games, mostly because I suck at them. I was displeased with MUA.

Like you, I am pretty psyched about it. Gears of War is a bit 'meh' so far, but I have only played for an hour or so. I just hope my computer can run Supreme Commander.

I'm honestly excited about FFIII being re-released on DS, as well as Zelda:Phantom Hourglass, even though it's the sequel to WW. Not to mention that Supreme Commander should be coming out soon. I spent countless hours playing Total Annihilation, the mother of all RTS, and this is the spiritual successor. They have such a crazy scale on it, the big big mech units will actually crush ground troops under their feet. I’m pondering getting Gears of War, so let us know how that goes.
