Just a quick couple of things.
1. I beat Mega Man X for the first time. Damn that game is good.
2. Been playing Hearthstone on and off over the past week. It has been really easy to get sucked into the game. I find myself constantly saying, "just one more match."
3. I downloaded Shadowrun Returns for the iPad. It will probably take me a couple of months to actually play through the game. I don't have much access to the iPad in the house, which I am fine with, unless I am in the mood to play Hearthstone.
4. I know this relates more to #1, but I am working through Mega Man X2 at the moment. I really wish that there were more SNES Mega Man games on the Virtual Console.
5. A couple of years ago the God of War collection was on sale on the PS3. Who would have thought that purchase would come back to benefit me today. The God of War collection was just released on the Vita. Since I already have the PS3 version I was able to "buy" the Vita version for free. There is just one issue, both games combined file size is 15.5 GB.
6. I am heading out of the country in a couple of weeks. I am looking forward to that. Hopefully my Vita will be able to keep a charge for the 16 hour flight to Japan. I don't know it I will have space to carry enough books to get me through that flight either.
7. I guess I lied when I said a couple of things.
8. How could I forget. I have been spending a lot of time with Mario Kart 64. I have come to the realization that Mario Kart Wii just sucks. The races feel fair in 64 compared to Wii.
1. First time? I never beat it. I got to Sigma, but the damn hadouken only worked once. Boo.
4. I loved renting that game, one of my favorites on SNES.
6. Awesome, I need to travel the world at some point.
7. I ... guess I did too? Iunno.
8. I was never amazed by any Mario Kart the way other people seem to be. They're fun and all, but ... eh. Don't know if SNES, N64 or Double Dash is my favorite. Probably 64 for that city level.
I just have issues with realistic racers. That is one of the big reasons that I gravitate towards Mario Kart. That and F-Zero.
Hopefully you can tell us things about Japan. I'm interested in knowing.
To each of their own, i've been replaying Mario Kart Wii and it still has aged for me. That said, 50cc is boring and it is indeed cheap, but which Mario Kart isn't cheap?
Mario Kart Wii is cheaper than most. I could never put my finger on it, but it finally dawned on me when my brother-in-law mentioned that characters slow down to a stop near the finish line so that you can pass them and feel good about yourself.
I don't really hate the game, I just get frustrated when I go from first to twelfth in a matter of seconds. I don't ever remember that happening in the other games.
I had GOW collection on PS3 too, but it was the retail copy, so I guess that doesn't count. I guess it pays to buy digital now.
the Vita one doesn't seem to be an HD collection, so when I looked at the file size on the Vita storefront it was actually only 4 GB. Thank God.
There are some benfits to digital purchases as far as Sony is concerned. The Vita is the only console that I would actively push going all digital... There are a ridiculous amount of sales and the game carts are so frickin small they can easily be lost.
I still like going retail, but yea, the Vita connects so effortlessly to PSN, it seems natural to go digital there. Those carts are incredibly small, aren't they. Drop one, and you may never find it again.
Overall, so do I. Especially with console games. It just feels right to pop in a disc when you want to play a game.
Hearthstone is SO good!
Post pics from your Japan trip! 
Ooh, cool! Is it business or pleasure that takes you to Japan? I'm sure it will be a great trip.
Mega Man X is the only one I've beaten, though I do have the collection on GameCube. Just one of the many things in my backlog lol.
I downloaded Hearthstone last night but haven't booted it up yet.
The Humble Bundle Store is having a spring sale right now and after I get paid next I'm thinking of picking up Shadowrun Returns for my computer. It's just $5.
Pleasure, my wife and I are going to visit my sister while she is still over there.
My one brother played through both Shadowrun Returns campaigns and I think that he enjoyed them both, but the Berlin campaign was superior. That is one reason to buy it on the PC, it has the second campaign even if it is DLC.
Oh, okay. I know you work in spice production, so I thought that maybe Japan had become interested in interstellar travel 
I need to get to playing the Mega Man X games. I bought the Mega Man X Collection (PS2), but I hadn't played it yet.
At the very least play through the first X game. The second one feels a bit off to me, not necessarily in a bad way. I may be burning out on Mega Man quicker than anticipated.
The first Mega Man X game is one of my top favorite Mega Man titles, along with Mega Man 2, 3, and 8.
I do have a copy of III on my Wii. I just don't know which level to start with, that is why I havent finished that game.
Top Man
Liar.
I have the Mega Man X Collection so I'm covered as far as that goes, though I'm temped to download Mega Man Xtreme and Xtreme 2 off of the 3DS eShop. They were my introduction to Mega Man, aside from that Ruby Spears cartoon.
remember beating that game during a summer. it made me want to go out and buy the game since when I beat it it was a rental. I was hoping the same too when it came to MM and MMX titles. Though I already own the collection sets for MM and MMX on PS2 it's still tempting to want those games so I can play them with a classic/wii controller. I hear capcom is going to release more MM/MMX games on VC but only on the Wii U. Lame! Atleast give wii owners MM VI so they can have the whole NES collection on there!
