I get it. I just wanted to come up with a Skylander name. I think it's really interesting how they named each character. I contemplated the fact that my user name here is just like a Skylander name.
Silver's cool and I want that 3DS starter Pack. Not so much for Dark Spyro but because the game itself is a bit different from the console games. The story, I just read, links more closely with the next game, Giants, too.
The Legendary version looks like the Dark version where he is prone to a bit of The Evil. He encountered The Darkness once and gained the ability to use its elemental power but it turns him slightly evil. He prefers fire though so most of the time he's ok.
That's great. There's always a way on PC, it seems. Sometimes I think I should just create a game, then I can play both sides and meddle with it anyway I want.
The magic word for me here is "Story Mode". I love a Kart racer if it has a story like Diddy Kong Racing. I'll have to check out Crash Team Racing and Jak X. I didn't know they has story modes in them.
It's a tough choice between the Advance Wars series and Pikmin. I guess I'd have to give the edge to Advance Wars. I love the look of the game. It's like playing with military toys as a kid. I find the gameplay a little bit frustrating in the higher levels. Someone described it as a kind of puzzle to solve. There's not a lot of different ways to win, you just have to solve it the way they want you to.
I sort of wish all these difficult strategy games with somewhat cartoony visuals, like Civ Rev, had some mode that frees me from the actual strategy. I think I want to do like I did as a kid and run simulations from both sides and see how it plays out. Maybe a mode that let's you set up and then it plays itself or just that you control both sides, i.e. no A.I. .
Yea, you need at least a century to become a master at civ.
What would your name be then? Helilicker?
Yea and there are undead, machine, magic skylanders too. Well, techically the Arkeyans are both magic and machine, so Chop Chop is all three.
What is it about water? It's always problematical in games. I guess we're land creatures and like land games. If Dolphins made video games they would be the best at the computer design of water and all their games would be based on Ecco The Dolphin instead of Zelda or Doom.
I've got five achievements left. One is practically done and the rest are about winning on Deity difficulty. It's weird because last I played it, probably in 2009 because I saw a save file labeled that, I had trouble beating it on King difficulty, two levels below Deity. It must've taken 8 years of my brain silently working on it to produce this kind of mastery in 2017. But we'll see if I can handle Deity level.
It's strange it hasn't been rereleased. The characters have been in all sorts of other Sega games. Apparently the game didn't do well financially when it came out.
