Recent News, For Anybody That Reads These
Most recent news will be placed at the top.
- Just completed a three-heart run of Oracle of Seasons as well.
- I recently completed a three-heart challenge for The Minish Cap, with only one bottle. Props to self.
- No new epic Zelda at E3. :( However, we did get a new Spirit Tracks trailer, which is okay, I suppose. I'm not too disappointed, though. Metroid: Other M was revealed today, and it looks epically epic.
- Figured out how to use the PrtScr/SysRq key to capture what's on one's screen. Basically, this means that I can take screenshots of videos on Youtube or capture images that can't be downloaded normally. This makes me very happy.
- Finished Part 3 of my Oracle of Seasons walkthrough here.

Zelda Game Evaluations
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
This was a great game, as nearly all Zeldas are. I loved the fact that you could travel all over the Light World very early in the game, and get a lot of neat stuff and Pieces of Heart by doing so. The dungeons weren't as hard as I would have liked, though. You know that the dungeons are too easy when you can beat the fourth, fifth, and sixth dungeons out of eleven in an hour. I also didn't like the fact that there was very little to do once you got to the point where you were going to face Ganon. But the feeling that you were all alone, without an ally in the entire world that would help you without asking for money, was a great touch that I don't think has been replicated in any Zelda title since. Heck, even the villagers tried to kill you by reporting you to the soldiers!
The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons/Ages
I LOVED these games. I liked Seasons better than Ages for a couple reasons. Number one, fully controllable Magic Boomerang. Number two, better final boss. Veran was WAY too easy, even though she had three forms as opposed to Onox's two. The dungeons were also less mind-blowingly frustrating (I did NOT like the Ancient Tomb dungeon, with the four wheels or so which switched back and forth between clockwise and counter-clockwise movement... those of you who have played it know what I mean. Seasons also never had an item whose sole purpose was to solve puzzles. Even the Magnetic Gloves could be used to kill certain enemies. But the Cane of Somaria only made my life more difficult, especially considering the part it played in the EVIL floor-tile puzzle in Hero's Cave if you played the games in tandem, Seasons first. I will concede that Ages had a better plot, but that doesn't really save it, in my opinion.
Moving on to the good things about the games as a duo: the Magical Rings game mechanic was a stroke of genius. They were not essential in any way, and you didn't really feel any pressure to collect them all, as that feat was nearly impossible to accomplish without playing the games several times in order to get the Victory Ring and such. But they did make your life a whole lot easier in some circumstances, like using the Toss Ring at the Mighty Tokay mini-game in Ages. All in all, a worthy addition to the Zelda saga.
The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap
This was a pretty good game too in some areas, but decidedly LACKING in others. The myriad sword techniques, the clever alternate ways of killing enemies... you could spend hours just screwing around to see what crazy stuff you could do that would work. Unfortunately, one of the things that you COULDN'T spend hours doing was working your way through the dungeons. They were all over too quickly, and while they were fun, the fact that you only had six dungeons and one mini-dungeon to go through was epically disappointing, especially considering that Nintendo managed to fit the entirety of ALttP and Four Swords into one Game Pak, but they couldn't give us a few more dungeons for Minish Cap, and instead gave us those impossible-to-get-all-of Kinstone fusions and Carlov's figurines, which you couldn't skip if you wanted to get all of the Heart Pieces. The final boss was also very annoying, as were all things involving the whole "split yourself into extremely fragile duplicates" mechanic. It was okay overall, but there were many flaws that needed to be resolved.
The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
I used to be of the opinion that OoT was miles better than Majora's Mask, but since I started playing it, I can't tell which is the better game. It's definitely much easier to get around Termina than Hyrule without the use of Epona. The Stray Fairy game mechanic is terrific, and I no longer hate the three-day system, although it does get annoying that on the Third Day, the entire world shakes a bit occasionally. Great addition to the sense of impending doom, but it doesn't help my shooting skills when the world's vibrating. The Goron Races made me angry after the fiftieth try. If it cost Rupees, I would have given up after about five tries. (To be finished later) MM is fun, but I would have to say that OoT still leaves me more sentimental, if only for the music of Hyrule.
The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker
I'm replaying this game right now, and I find myself enjoying it much more than I did the first time. Why? Well, the first time, I just went through the game trying to do the main quest and a few sidequests just to get enough Heart Containers to get by. On second playthrough, though, I have been doing the main quest in order to get enough items so that I can just pillage, raid, burn, and generally be a piratey rogue. Once I got past the cartoony art style, I was able to see that Wind Waker is a really good game. The camera controls are the best in the series, the wallet is big enough to hold all the Rupees that you get from doing stuff, the wordplay is over-the-top, but just more fun because of it, and the world is expansive and filled with stuff to do. The sailing still get on my nerves a little bit, but not so much because now, I'm fishing for every sunken treasure chest, and particularly, raiding every lookout tower. The things I've done to the poor souls aboard those towers... I just found out today that if a Bokoblin catches onto the edge of the tower to keep from falling to his doom, you can actually stab his hands to force him off. How awesome is that? The swordplay is much more important in this game than in the N64 games (not bashing them or anything, just pointing this out), and the items make combat ridiculously fun no matter how easy it gets later in the game. The story is much darker in this game than you would expect from the cartoony artwork, and the ending battle is preceded by one of the most dramatic scenes in Zelda history, including one of my all-time favorite lines: "YOUR GODS DESTROYED YOU!". All in all, the cartoony graphics should not turn people off of this game, because it's just ridiculous fun in and of itself, and of course, it lets you be a piratey rogue if you want to be.

The Coolest Characters of All Time (that I know of)
These are in no particular order, and I will be adding more in the future. Detailed explanations to come.
Mewtwo
Yeah, he's my talk bubble image. Basically, he's a genetically engineered fighting machine, and he's the closest thing to a real villain that the Pokemon series has ever had. Plus, he killed Ash Ketchum, something that Ash's Charizard was never able to do despite all of its attempts. Wouldn't you like to be able to hurt people, throw objects, destroy stuff, etc. with your mind? HE CAN.
Eomer
One of the underappreciated characters of LOTR, Eomer is one cool guy. He was bold enough to walk out on his king when he started listening to Dick Ch- I mean, Grima Wormtongue, and basically helped ensure that Rohan would survive by showing up with a load of horses at Helm's Deep (talking about the movie here, not the book, although he's just as cool in the book). He is also a straight shot with a javelin, as seen when he impales one of the elephant riders from horseback, which then caused a chain reaction leading to the incapacitation of two of the massive elephant-beasts. Can you say "ridiculous ownage"?
Weyoun
Okay, nobody's going to know who this guy is. Basically, he is the chief "ambassador" of the Dominion, which is a tyrannical empire in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. He is also semi-immortal, due to the fact that he has a whole lot of clones in stasis, and if the current Weyoun is killed, another clone is activated and given all of the previous Weyouns' memories, thus essentially giving the world a semi-immortal entity. He's a smooth-talker to the highest degree, but can be a coldhearted, calculating villain when he wants to. He's also got some of the greatest lines in the series (example: "Certainly not. You can't release a man and then execute him. It makes no sense," which he says when someone implores him to release a prisoner) All in all, a really fun character to watch, and that's why he deserves a spot on the list.
Garak
Another great character from DS9. He's basically an ex-assasin/member of the Cardassian secret police, who has since been banished from his homeworld and has become a tailor on DS9. Yes, this is as big of a letdown for him as it sounds. We never actually learn why he was exiled, and that's intentional on the part of the writers. Garak gives us many false stories throughout the series, and is better at creating confusion than anybody. Indeed, at one point he says that all of his stories are true, "especially the lies." It's impossible to give an impression of just how awesome this guy was in text, so just watch the show yourself, especially the episode "In the Pale Moonlight". Garak's best episode ever. Watch the below clip to see why Garak (and Sisko) are great characters.
- This next clip, I think, is great because it fits Garak so well. Set to the song "Secret Agent Man".
Solid Snake
The hero of most of the Metal Gear Solid games, Solid Snake is one of the most ridiculously skilled characters ever, and he combines this skilledness with a host of really cool gadgets given to him by his nerdy comrade, Otacon. Anyone who has seen how Snake takes out Sniper Wolf knows what I'm talking about. Let's see Master Chief do a backwards flip, land on a sniper rifle, flipping it into the air, catch it, then instantly shoot a sniper who is camped out and waiting for Snake to show himself, all while in a blizzard. That's what I thought.
Bek Ohmsford
This is the guy who I named myself after. I just added the title of "The Conqueror" because I thought it sounded cool and I really didn't want to just add random digits to make it long enough to be a legal username. Anyhoo, Bek is a character in Terry Brooks' Shannara series of books, and he's basically the only main hero that isn't horribly whiny, but is actually really awesome. He has magic that can do anything, creating or destroying, limited only by how much strength he can muster at the moment. He also pilots airships throughout the books that he is in, making him just that much more awesome. Any time I replay a Zelda game, or start any game that allows me to name a character who is not given a moderately cool default name, I name them Bek after this awesome character.
Malcolm Reynolds
This guy is from Firefly, one of the best sci-fi series of all time, which was screwed to the wall by Fox, whose comments upon being pitched the series in the first place were literally, "Mmm, that sounds good, but could you add a space prostitute?" I am not joking here. Anyhoo, Mal is a Han Solo-type character, but manages to still be his own character. He is a veteran of a failed resistance attempt against the Alliance, which now controls all humanity. He gets himself a ship and a crew, and has one mission: keep flying no matter how many illegal jobs he has to pull to get money. He is awesome because he has great lines and never fights fair. If there is a hostage situation, he'll just shoot the hostage-taker in the head and dump him off his ship. Aghh... words can't do the character justice. The series isn't for kids at all, but if you're interested in the series (and you should be), the entire series first 5 episodes can be viewed for free on Hulu.com.
