Least favorite? I've never really thought about that. There are some Pokemon that I would consider useless, but then again, they're still really cool and all if you work hard and train them.
For their pure battling prowess? I don't really hate any Pokemon statswise. Designwise, I really just hate the Lotad family for some reason. Which shocks me, because I've used Lotads a lot, to great effect.

Why do you dislike people seeing how you look in real life?
*Hints at the DSi XL unboxing video* |
Have I ever been in a relationship?
No, not particularly. I don't really plan on dating until I can drive. I mean, it's hard to take your girlfriend out on a small oneseat bike.
My favorite movies?
Excluding Iron Man and Pokemon movies, my favorite would be Inside Man. It's an awesome heist/thriller movie.
Favorite dog?
I must admit, I've had a slight fear of dogs ever since I was a kid. I do like German sheperds though.

How can you be an iron "man" if beldum doesn't have a gender? I mean it seems kind of contradictory, having a masculine attribute assigned to a non-gendered object.

What are your thoughts on Iron man 2?
I personally liked it, They should have put the Avengers hints to a lower level. Also that Scene with Rodey stealing the Suit.. it made no sense at all. Otherwise I liked it. And you? |

Why do you have an obsession with that awesome color that you posted about in /b/uizel?

Lite! Over here! What do you think made you stick around on the forums after you joined?
Also, what's your opinion between the interaction of the Yellow Yoshi and the Pink one in that picture? |

Who was a "Super mod" first, you, GL or Ditto? Since when I got here you three were the only super mods (other than Val, but that's a different story) so I don't know.
I was promoted a long time before Ditto was, and Dew got here last out of us three. Are you good at writing a quick 5 paragraph essay off the top of your head about a subject you love? I can write an essay about anything as long as it's not some type of persuasive writing thing where they make you write for pro-something you're against. |

Lite, you're gonna hate the ACT then... anyway...
I know right? It's going to be really stupid. Do you like where you live? Not particularly. As a native Southern Californian, I gotta say that the constant heat here sucks. We develop sheer ecstacy when we get rain or some type of winter weather- despite that we don't like to be caught IN that weather. If you could live anywhere, where would it be? In the states I'd probably like to live somewhere in Florida, or New York, or Seattle. Outside of the country I'd like to live in Canada. I mean, c'mon dude. Parliament. Freakin' Parliament. If I chose to live somewhere fictional it'd be on the Thousand Sunny. What is your favorite flavor of Jelly bean? Uhm. Coffee. |

I am attempting to assign to you the nickname of His Highness, Iron King of Radioactive Sheep and All Things Awesome. Do you approve of this nickname or not, and why?
That's not a nickname, that's a title. |
1. Considering I've seen your LP's of Metroid Prime, will you ever do Sonic 4 or Sonic Colors, or even SBCG4AP as a LP in the future, as well as doing Metroid and Super Metroid?
2. This is kinda a personal question but, do you have a girlfriend, Lite? ( don't say the name if you don't want to)
3. What's your favorite Mario game? (mine is soon becoming Super Mario Galaxy 2) Note: SSB series doesn't count. Considering third-party characters and such.
4. Should I download the original Metroid on VC?

1. Considering I've seen your LP's of Metroid Prime, will you ever do Sonic 4
No. or Sonic Colors, No. or even SBCG4AP Maybe. as a LP in the future, as well as doing Metroid Probable. and Super Metroid? Probable. You must understand that I don't take requests unless I also think that they'd be good LPs. 2. This is kinda a personal question but, do you have a girlfriend, Lite? ( don't say the name if you don't want to) Most people around the forums know I've got a crush on a particular female user. We talk a lot off-site and we're pretty good friends. When it comes to people I've actually met, however, I've answered this question already. Might want to check out the previous questions in this thread, bro. 3. What's your favorite Mario game? (mine is soon becoming Super Mario Galaxy 2) Note: SSB series doesn't count. Considering third-party characters and such. SMG2 is great and all but I see it as more of an expansion pack than I do an actual game, so I lump both SMGs into one pot and call it the Galaxy series. The Galaxies are my favorite Mario games to date. 4. Should I download the original Metroid on VC? Why haven't you done that already?! While you're at it download Super Metroid if you haven't. If you're going to pick up the NES Metroid you should also download Kid Icarus. It's like Metroid but much more balls-to-the-walls and a hell of a lot harder. |

I wasn't asking about Super Metroid or Kid Icarus. I tried Kid Icarus, but too boring and repetitive for my own taste.
I suggest you play it through more and get used to it. The gameplay is much like that of the NES Metroid, only Metroid made a lot of improvements on Kid Icarus. (For the record, Kid Icarus predates Metroid by a few months. It's the sister title to Metroid.) And I have yet to do Super Metroid. This disappoints me. But, I mainly want to do Metroid on NES first. Well, get Metroid on NES then. It's probably my favorite old-school 8-bit video game for NES. It's also a solid platformer in its own right. Why do you answer in quotes? If there's multiple parts of a question/multiple questions/multiple points in a post, then I simply quote the message and insert my own counterpoints within the quotes. |

What got you so hooked into the Metroid series?
My first Metroid game ever was Metroid Fusion, which I loved to death for its amazing soundtrack and gameplay. I also had the option of buying Metroid Prime, but my mother prevented me from buying a T game. Ever since I beat Fusion I'd been forever addicted to Metroid. In your honest opinion, no sugar-coating, what was your least favorite Metroid game? Hrm. Here's my favorites on a tier scale. I'm not considering II: Return of Samus or Pinball since I haven't played those two. 1. Metroid: Fusion (GBA) 2. Super Metroid (SNES) 3. Metroid Prime 2: Echoes (GCN) 4. Metroid Prime Hunters (including First Hunt) (DS) 5. Metroid: Other M (Wii) 6. Metroid Prime 3: Corruption (Wii) 7. Metroid Prime (GCN) 8. Metroid: Zero Mission (GBA) 9. Metroid (NES) Metroid's my least favorite because, to be quite honest, it simply hasn't aged as well as its sequel, Super Metroid has. I still love the game and it's probably one of the most full NES games I've ever played. If you could, would you give every Nintendo console owner (from NES to Wii) a copy of every Metroid game? Well I've been trying to convince everyone on VR to play Metroid, but you're all too PokeCrazed to actually do anything about my recommendations, so I guess if I provided you with the video games you'd play them. |
It'll be the first Layton game I play.
Seriously I've never played a Professor Layton game and I've only played the first Phoenix Wright. I'm not even sure I'll play it- there's other games for that console I'm interested in. Can you say possible Metroid: Dread confirmation? Because I can.
Well, for one, it's got the lamest pun names in the history of lame puns. The trials themselves can be really epic though.

Do you have any interest in the new Donkey Kong game that's coming out next month?
|
|
Did you see my suggestion for a custom forum theme?
No. If so, what are your thoughts? If it had anything to do with Metroid or Iron Man then I approve. What are your thoughts on the Halo series? No. It's a great FPS and all but to be quite honest it plays just like any other FPS. And Metroid is a much better FPS/FPA. The canon is fantastic though. |

1. Who would win in a fight, Iron Man or Samus Aran?
Samus. While Iron Man can create a suit for a specific situation, Samus's Varia Suit is modular and can adapt to various sorts of technologies. 2. Favorite Mario RPG? Partners in Time. 3. Do you have Sonic Adventure 2 Battle? Blueargh make it go away. I have it, but I sort of regret owning it. SA2 was terrible. SA was much better; it didn't force you into playing multiple characters in one story path, and even then the gameplay didn't differ too drastically from Sonic's mode outside of the control schemes of Big and Gamma. SA2 basically locked you into playing like, 9 Tails/Eggman mech stages, 5 Knuckles/Rouge stages, and like 3 Sonic/Shadow stages. It wasn't a perfect balance like SA was. 4. Favorite Pokemon spin-off? The spin-offs are overrated. I played the first two Mystery Dungeons and got turned off from anything beyond the mainstream titles. If Colosseum and XD count as spin-offs, then those were the only two titles I enjoyed. 5. Do you have Conker's Bad Fur Day? No. It, along with Perfect Dark, DK64 and Banjo-Tooie are the few RareWare titles I don't own for N64. 6. 2nd favorite Marvel hero? uhhh this question sucks My top 5 favorite Marvels: 1. Iron Man 2. Spider-Man 3. Wolverine 4. Hulk 5. Deadpool 7. What's a place you wish to see in your life? Uhh... Canada. Totally. 8. Favorite song? I'll just post a few of my favorite songs.
AC/DC- Let There Be Rock
Iron Man- Black Sabbath
AC/DC- War Machine
Beck- Threshold (as performed/written for Sex Bob-omb)
"Gattai Nante Kuso Kurai" ("**** Combining!!" or "To Hell With Combining!") I don't know the artist, but Gainax had a band do this song for Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann.
This isn't all that I listen to though. Other bands include (but again, are not limited to) the Beastie Boys, Airbourne, Evanescence (thanks for that Mandy), Pearl Jam, Queen, and the pillows. |

1. Out of all the Poker characters in Poker Night in the Inventory, which is you favorite? The Heavy, Strong Bad, Max, or Tycho?
I VEEL MAKE HET FROM YOO LEETUL BUNNEE. 2. Is Metroid: Other M any good? I've been thinking about getting it, but it got mixed reviews. Any advice on you thoughts on it? http://www.victoryroad.net/showthread.php?t=5282 My complete professionally revised review of Metroid: Other M. Most people gave it a bad review based on the fact that the story "ruined" Samus's character, which is a very opinionated reason to automatically give it a *****y grade. For one, this is probably the first Metroid game (apart from what little you had in Fusion) that actually had narrative. http://www.victoryroad.net/showthread.php?t=5223 The original review I had written for Other M |
While I haven't finished the game yet, I have run into a bunch of major spoilers while reading about it out of boredom, etc., so I was wondering, did the actual nature of the small creature in Metroid:Other M, as well as a certain character (the one whose name references an enemy from Super Metroid) come as a huge shock to you? Did you find these to be good implementations, story-wise?

I sort of called it after the larval form of Little Birdie hatched into the more lizard-like land animal. in Metroid:Other M, as well as a certain character (the one whose name references an enemy from Super Metroid) Now, on this one I'm lost, because there actually IS a boss enemy that appears in Other M that was ripped directly FROM Super Metroid, but I can't think of any character or enemy who's simply a sly -reference- to an enemy from Super Metroid. Unless of course you're referring to MB, in which case not really. come as a huge shock to you? Did you find these to be good implementations, story-wise? I find the story to be a good implementation, story-wise. It's also a good canon explanation of describing Ridley as a species, and would also explain possible re-appearances of Metroids in post-Fusion sequels. |
