Wait...scratch that...I finished Paper Mario. Ahh, good game.

Rpgs, they're like little adventures you can take. A dumbed down version of a fantasy novel. I buy them thinking "oh boy, this will occupy my time" but like a few weeks later, I'll get stuck, or maybe I'll get busy with something and I just don't touch the PSP/DS for a couple of weeks.

Completing an RPG, though, that's a real treat. You've beaten the boss who's got like 40 full healing potions and 7 different forms and you've gone through every dungeon it's good to know you've kicked the game's ass and gone through another ripoff of Joesph Campbell's typical Hero's Journey.

But the going gets rough sometimes, you know?

Pokemon Yellow, late 90's
Stuck on that one island village, 2nd to last gym (?)

Ahh, the late 90's. Surge was still in stores, Napster was still up, and you could still buy Pokemon bed sheets. I had gotten a Game Boy pocket for my Birthday and Pokemon yellow, which was like PK Red or Blue, only with extra pickachu becaue he was so goddamn cute, and the kidz love cute right? Lolz. It was like the last day of 6th grade and we were playing games. I guess we could bring CD players and game boys. Anyway, I was playing the Gym boss or whatever, in this heated battle, and I knew it was mine. Then my teacher was like "oh you gotta go participate in the Connect Four tournament, so turn off that gameboy" so I did, right in the middle of the friggin battle, and I guess I never touched it again. After 6th grade, Pokemon was dweeb culture and I had to ditch it, so much for that.

Pokemon Silver
Just gave up out of boredom

Heyyy, it's pokemon, lulz, it makes zillionz of dollarz! Let's sell the same game over and over again, only adding more land to explore and more monsters! yeah
That's PK silver in a nutshell, I got through the "new" section of the "World" and was trying to get to the 2nd area, and there was some stuff I had to do and I guess I just didn't have the drive to continue. It's like when you play Halo 3 online and everyone's a frigtard who yells racial slurs, you just wanna get out of there and sip some Canada Dry, which is what I did.

Final Fantasy 7
The part where Barret's old rival gets all up in his grill, and you gotta take him on man to man
Barret, yeah, probably should have leveled him up some more. He dosen't stand a chance up against his rival, which looks like Snake "I thought you were dead" Pliskin from Escape From New York. It's in that part where you get to the huge casino, and then the casino staff get all up in your grill and dump you out the garbage chute. Then you gotta fight sketchy types in that junkyard and the only way to advance it to take on Barret's nemisis, or maybe it's his bud and his bud wants to go Kahn on his ass. I don't remember.
Anyway, Aeris gets the shaft....falah falah....the end.

Earthbound
Zombie Circus
Oh man, I loved the hell out of Earthbound. It's like the Monty Python of RPGs (Or, is Monty Python the Earthbound of movies?????) Anyway this was in highschool, and I was startin' to get migranes and stuff, when I get a migrane I get this "aura" where my vision starts to mess up and things start disappearing, then I'm out for the next 12 hours :( .
But Eathbound, oh yeah. I rescued Paula from the hippies, and I think I met up with Jeff and we crossed the bridge with the ghosts because the only way you can cross is on the Runaway 5's tour van, which kicks ass. But then they just dump you in this zombie village, and the only way to kill all the zombies is this one dude in the middle of a circus tent. Needless to say, I don't think I got him. I really regret not putting more effort into earthbound, cause it was the Cats Pajamas.

Anyway yeah. I've done a few more since then, but those are the ones that stand out.
