FUN TIMES
(Posted 2009-07-19 21:48:09 by basscomm)

It's been a busy time for the Crummysocks network of sites:

Over at Pro Tip of the Day [ http://protipoftheday.com/ ] we've had some
pretty interesting tips including my personal technique [
http://protipoftheday.com/node/215 ] for mashing buttons faster, and a way
to play the SNES Civilization that borderlines on cheating [
http://protipoftheday.com/node/219 ].

Rejected Screens [ http://rejectedscreens.net/ ] got a ton of new screens,
particularly from the Super NES version of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles:
Turtles in Time [ http://rejectedscreens.net/v/Gameshots/SNES/TMNT4/ ]. I
just can't help myself, I really like that game.

On the game-playing front, I've finally gotten around to opening my copy of
Final Fantasy VI Advance, which I bought back in '07. The retranslation
definitely changes the tone of a few of the scenes in the game, so it's
definitely worth it to play through for the thousand-and-first time.

I've also been slogging through Tales of Vesperia for the Xbox 360. I was
pretty jazzed because I really liked the two Tales of Symphonia [
http://closeoutwarrior.com/?p=180 ] games but it's been tough going, and
I'm not really sure why. All of the pieces that I liked from the other
games are there, but something just hasn't 'clicked' for me yet. I'll
probably end up working though it all anyway, because I'm invested in it
now, but it's going to take some time. Probably even longer now that we
have a remake of Turtles in Time [
http://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/t/tmnttitrsxboxlivearcade/ ] coming down
the pike.
