Hi Mobius

Just checked that game out the (lost Marbles) sounds not a bad game. :) Yeah that marble madness game was very frustrating as well as a bit on the short sile. It was always very tricky to keep control of the marble without falling off the ledge into the darkness that waits below.

Have you tried Marble blast Mobius? It was a very fun game, one of my favourite marble games of all time. :)

No I haven't, I'll have to look into that one. Since we're talking about Marble games (which I just realized I have an affinity for) You might like a game called Marble Drop

Idk why the game got poor reviews I found few flaws in it and it was lots of fun, and hard.

Actually that might be a good game (Marble drop) Need to give that a try.  In the game do you have to get the coloured marbles into the correct colours so to say. I checked this you tube of the game

Yeah that actually looks like a game I would enjoy. There is some games I like that have gotten bad reviews, like one of the games I can think of is (Crash day) a racing game that was actually quite fun.

Did you manage to complete Marble drop? What about Marble Madness, sorry I had to ask. I just completed that game recently myself for the first time. :)

I figured to post in here once again, might be interesting to nobody, but at least it will be interesting for future reference for myself :P
At the moment I'm playing Super Mario Bros. 2 (as in the Lost Levels), Mario Kart: Super Circuit and various Super Mario Kart hacks.
So much Mario! :o

After taking a break due to being really busy and replaying Icewind Dale II during that, I've finally started playing Pillars of Eternity again -- I've still not finished it. Also playing GTR2 from time to time, and I ventured back into Unreal Tournament 2004 for the first time since I got a mouse (as opposed to a trackball). That didn't go as badly as I feared, but clearly I still need a bit more practice with the mouse to get to where I was!

I've recently started playing Re-Volt online, I never did that before as I never set it up properly until a few weeks ago.
At first, I got last every time, but the third day I played I got some better places.
It's definitely fun to play online, although I usually like the diversity of cars, which isn't there when racing online as almost everyone uses Toyeca, the best car.
And sometime it lags a little when interacting with other cars, but that's probably always going to be an issue with online multi-player gaming.

I was playing Majora's Mask for a few days, but then the new Ace Attorney game came out, and I'm playing that instead.

I've been playing Dark Souls; an action/RPG game with a lot of focus on exploration. It's really a beautiful game, in some areas the graphics look very realistic. It has a very good and immersive atmosphere.

I bought the game a while ago and didn’t like it at first because of controller issues I wasn’t used to and it seemed too difficult (as it’s so noted for). But I picked it up again recently and found it’s really not as overly difficult than most other games I’ve played like this. I think one thing that sets it apart is that the game doesn’t hold your hand in the beginning like many others do [cough Zelda cough] so a lot of things you must figure out yourself, which I kind of like in a game. I’d rather discover something on my own with the satisfaction of figuring something out then reading a lot of text etc.
I think It’s the kind of game where if something seems too overly difficult; you’re probably going about it the wrong way; and there’s an easier way of doing it. Or you're just in the wrong area. The path through the game is very non-linear and there are many ways to go from the beginning, most are way too hard for you at the beginning however.

That being said, the game definitely is not easy, and there are some things I don't like about it, but the good points keep me playing anyway. It’s pretty complex; there’s a lot of things to think about. It’s not a game like Half-Life where running through it at mach speed is the best approach. I like how it forces you to take your time. You have to study every new enemy you encounter to learn it’s patterns and the best way to fight it. I also love how story line is woven through item descriptions that you can read at your leisure and within dialogue with characters instead of long drawn out cut scenes like so many other popular games do.

I just got back into speedrunning the fangame Mega Man: Rock Force. Amazing game, personally I like it better than most of the official Mega Man games. I may post a Youtube video or stream it when I get good enough; it's a very fun game to speedrun.

I'm toying with the idea of getting into Super Mario Bro. X . IF you don't know, it's a free fan made game which combines Mario 1,2,3 and some Zelda stuff and has a level editor.
Not sure I really feel like making levels/a game if nobody would play it though.

I don't mind giving this game a go; as long as it's a game with a level editor that comes for free. like Neolemmix, only that it's a platformer instead of a Lemmings game.

On my 3DS, I've been playing Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam Bros. Some of the music in that game has found its way into my SEB Lems pack ;P

On my PS Vita, I've been playing thee rhythm game Project Diva X.
Incredible entry in the Hatsune Miku Project Diva series, then again all 3 PS Vita entries are pretty strong games.
One advantage playing this game on the Vita over PS3/PS4 is the calibration issues are virtually non existant which makes the game so much better.
Again Hatsune Mike music will feature in the SEB Lems pack :thumbsup:

I may pick up the PS4 version at some point but the PS Vita version was £24.99 as opposed to PS4 being £36.99.

I've found that rhythm games, for me, sync a lot better on CRT televisions than flatscreens - if you can find one at a thrift shop maybe that will deal with any calibration issues rhythm games tend to have on newer TVs? Then again you would also need an HDMI to AV converter which might itself create lag?
