Devil May Cry 3 - So unbelievably difficult, I just had to beat it again on hard mode (it helps that your stats carry over from other difficulties.  Can you say "Max life and devil trigger on the first level"?)

Right after I beat Normal mode (and I thought it was pretty hard), I didn't think Hard mode was all that bad. Granted, I only just now beat the 2nd battle with Vergil, but when you have max life, max devil trigger (or ANY devil trigger), and leveled-up styles the first half of the game is way easier.

I heard that Dante Must Die mode is friggin' unbelievable, though.

Possible spoilers: highlight to view

More health and attack for all enemies, and if you take too long in killing enemies, then THEY can devil trigger for ridiculous difficulty. Hard mode doesn't seem too much worse than Normal, but DMD is supposed to be one of the hardest gaming experiences of all time.

[EDIT]Oh, and just so I actually post something more on-topic, I finally beat Minish Cap after having it for over three months, and I switched up on my multiplayers somewhat.

Really? Thank GOD.
I was really hoping the game would rock, but that GameSpot review was like...wow, it MUST suck. I haven't gotten a chance to play it yet, but now I may give it a try.

I'm playing my FF games and Metal Gear Solid. I played that one recently after allowing it to collect dust on my shelf, so I figured I'd play it just for the "why not? factor" as I have yet to beat it. The story and the characters are so great, that I just had to play it again!

Next up:

Suikoden 3

Here I am, more than a year later, and I'm back to playing these two games, with the same plan for next in line.

--------------------

Veni, vidi, dormivi.

I was playing Legend of Dragoon, but the damn thing sucks. There are no scratches, no dirt, no gameshark, but it keeps freezing up. Usually I could restart from my last save point and it would continue, but after the water dragon fight, which i've done 5 times now, it keeps going black and won't continue. so i kind of gave up, and now i'm pulling out the 64 so i can play Ocarina of Time.

Anyone have any idea why it's doing this to me? It's a PS2, the mini-version, not modified in any way. It plays all the other games [ps1 and ps2] without issue. damn game. i was really getting into it.

--------------------

The first duty in life is to assume a pose,
and the second duty is...well, no one's found out yet.

This happened to me when i bought final fantasy 9 you have a bad disc is all. My nine disc wont ever let me get past the scene where your climbing up alexander with zidane and its about to go into the cinimatic fight with alexander and bahamut. Which sucks, just borrow or rent a copy get the right disc and move on. If your disc is still cruppted beyond that point you might need to buy a new one.
