At the moment I'm enjoying my Cube more than ever

It really just depends on what kind of gaming experience you're looking for.

I mean, for a long time was just playing the biggest longest games I could get a hold of. But lately I've been hanging out with my friends a lot more and playing a lot more multiplayer games.

Mario Party 5 is easily my favorite multiplayer game I've played for a couple of years now. It could be the people I'm playing with, but regardless I'm having a blast.

Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour is also an incredible game. Lots of fun had by all.

I've also been playing tons of DDR lately. My buddy built a homemade arcade style dance pad and we've just been beating the hell out of it (which won't matter because we're going to invest in some Red Octane pads before too long).

Aside from new games, though, I've been playing through a lot of old games now as well.

I've particularly been playing through the old point & click PC adventures (most of them based on the SCUMM engine: www.scummvm.org ). These include full voiced versions of: Sam & Max: Hit the Road, Maniac Mansion 2: Day of the Tentacle, Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, Beneath a Steel Sky, and The Dig.

So, a lot of variation for me. But my Cube's definately getting a lot of use with Mario Party and Mario Golf (and Rogue Leader now that I've got a surround sound system.

ShadowFox... that had to be one of the most confusing posts I have ever seen from you.

Neither said any game is better than OoT, Jason just said that Metroid is the best game since OoT, and DsH said it isn't. Saying somthing is the best thing since somthing doesn't mean it's better than the first item, it just means it's better than anything to come out between the time the first game was released and now.

Key line: better than anything to come out between the time the first game was released and now

DsH isn't saying MoH is the best, he's simply saying that Metriod Prime isn't the best to be released in that time period according to his own personal tastes. IMO Metriod isn't even in the top 50 released. I enjoyed Madden 98-2004 more than Metriod... as for "objective" game quality, I think FFX, Metal Gear Solid 2, Gran Turismo 3, Zelda:WW, Halo, GTA 3, and GTA:VC (among many others) are better than Metriod.

So yes, I agree with the Dead man, it is all opinion.

Hm.... well, sport games can be very fun, but I don't consider them super games.
Perhaps that's biased, but I just need a story, adventure and emotions in a game.
Sure, we had a lot of fun with Super Smash Bros, but I don't think it's better than let's say Eternal Darkness. Even though I've played SSB A LOT MORE.

Damn it, the guy in the bar is the most cowardly? And you need the colour pictobox for the moon??

I beated it yesterday night, the endig didn't make up for the rest of the game. Crappy story. Even though it was hard enough.
