Beyond Good & Evil: Beateded!

Great game!
Great game!

So, I finished BG&E this morning, and the final segment of the game really brings the story together and ends with a bang. I am excited to see what the sequel is going to be like. Truly this game is a gem, and it's really a shame that it was not marketed well enough for more folks to buy it. There should be plentiful of copies in your game store's bargain bin. Do yourself a favor and pick this game up.




Now that I've beaten that, I can move on to a couple of other games I aim to finish this summer:

Possibly his finest adventure.
Possibly his finest adventure.
One of the best, according to many.













So, I'm going to continue where I left off months ago in SMG starting tonight, and then I'll throw in a good session of FFX tomorrow. It's great to be playing games of this caliber y'know. Dull moments never really ensue, very seldom thoughts of, "Ugh, I really don't feel like playing games today." At least, I hope it totally won't be that way. I was going through that earlier in the week.

I've also started writing more reviews. For instance, I finished my LoZ: Phantom Hourglass review early this morning; just having it copy edited so it should be up on my page later this evening. Beyond Good & Evil will be my next user review.

Lastly, I treated myself to some retro goodness a bit earlier. I was searching through my PSX collection and I found my disc of Gex! I don't know how many of you played this
awesome platformer, but back then as a kid I found it awesome; although I never beat it, lol. As messy as the back of the disc appeared it still worked swell in my PS2. So I played a few levels and it still holds up well as a fun platformer; a genre I truly miss and wish was more implemented in today's software. I started researching info adding to what I already knew about the game and there's a crapload of cheat codes for it. But that's what we did in the good ol' days amirite? I'm now intending to edit the games entire Giant Bomb page, I've already added some general info for it. Submission points galore :P.

Alright Bomb Squad (that's what I'm calling the community, "Giant Bombers" is too plain imo), hope you're enjoying the weekend. Catch you later.

Peace. :)

This reminds me... I remember saying on my blog that I would write a review for Beyond Good & Evil, but I haven't even started on it yet. I should probably get on that.

Enjoy your games, sir.

I still do consider FFX to be the best of the entire series. It's the only FF game I've ever gotten 100% in.

Many call FFX the best in the series because for many long time fans of the series,it was the final Final Fantasy game in the main series till date that stayed true to all the traditions of the series. FFXI was shit as it was a crappy MMO,and FFXII supposedly didn't have the Final Fantasy-ish storyline. FFX is still my most wanted games (I dont have PS2) after FFVIII.
The best game ever? No,that goes to FFVII of course.

Gex, amazing, absolutely amazing. I can't really say much more, other than that it was amazing. I loved the themed levels, like the sherlock holmes on etc.

Galaxy is probably the only game in the last 10 years that I've gotten 100% in.  I really, really enjoyed it.

I have never played Beyond Good & Evil, I actually know barely anything about that game, so it does seem like a game that kind of flew under the radar.

Also, Final Fantasy X is an excellent game, and one of my personal favourites.  I have no doubt in my mind that you will have a good time playing it, enjoy it man!

Didn't know they were making a sequel for Beyond Good & Evil. I hear it's a hilarious game.

haha, we had a good talk about Bomb Squad and Gex on CoD4.

Ish - "I thought of it first"
Dan - "No I did!"
Dan - "When'd you think of it?"
Ish - "Like this afternoon, dude."
Dan - "I THOUGHT OF IT TWO WEEKS AGO"

You thought you had him :P
