I've been away for the last few days. Played a bit of Golden Sun DS, but I can't wait to get back to Bastion, Catherine and From Dust. I will be home pretty late tonight!

That's great to hear that Breath of Fire 4 is hitting PSN. I'm definitely going to have to get that. I played the first two games and I think some of the third.

Yes, Outland has made my day!  When Leo was describing this game, he had me at "like Metroid."  God, I love exploration type games.

Eww, why would I want to play a FPS online?

Congratulations, King of Hobo's. Even with a job it took a $9.99 price to tempt you!

Be aware that the default controls need tweaking to make it decent, check out the thread for the settings.

EDIT:

Be sure to disable the snap to auto aim thing and hold down Z when in iron sights mode for camera lock in the middle of the screen.

For anyone else the link to $9.99 Goldeneye at the Gamestop website is here

Aspro, did you say I was a fundamentalist or a what? No offence taken just curious on hearing why. In fact, for fun, what categories would you class all the people here according to your forum ideology?

3DS owners, check this out full size.

Kirby and the Amazing Mirror? SMB3?

I noticed that all the games they are giving away are Nintendo staples it's not like junk, makes me wonder what other good 1st party gba games they will give away. Fire Emblem and FE Sacred Stones? Advance Wars? Mario and Luigi?

OPM:

I need help with FFIV on DS.  I'm about 20 hours in and the game instead of getting easier is actually getting a lot harder.  I'm sure i've been playing this in completely the wrong way and haven't really paid much any attention to the "augment" system.  I'm now in the underworld and have no way yet to get back to the overworld.  Rydia is back but she is so weak she often dies in one blow so it's difficult to even try to level her up.

Aspro?  Robio?  Anyone else who has played this?  Is there a way I can salvage this and somehow see the game through to the end or do I need to start again?

I never played the DS remake of it, so I have no clue what the augment system in. All I can say is keep plugging away and make sure Rydia is in the back row. Maybe use Cecil's "cover" skill to protect her. She will become immensely powerful as she starts learn her high level summon spells. I'mm trying to remember what part of the game you're in right now. Have you gotten Edge yet?

I don't think i got Edge.  Is that a weapon or a character?  I'm in the underworld, ship broke down, Cid left.  My party now is Cecil, Rydia, Yang, Rosa and Kain.  I did a bit of leveling up.  I think I'm meant to go to the Tower of Babil now

Edge is a character. At one point in the over-world you may have come across the destroyed castle of Eblan. Edge was the prince of that kingdom, and now they've been forced to live in some caves underground. Very obnoxious character, but he's also very useful.

And yep Tower of Babil is next for you. After your adventures in the Tower you'll lose another character, but you will make it back to the overworld and Edge will be the next team member for you.
