Am I the only one who thinks this would be both the best thing for DS sales, and one of the best DS games to come out?

(Not that one is planned, or anything *pout*)

As a PSP user, this title scared me.

We're getting Advance Wars DS, going to be the best game for either portable, probably for their lives :P

Unless SC:DS came out ^_^

I envy DS players for that and FF3.

But we're getting a nice FF7 spinoff (forgot the name, and it isn't FF:AC), that GTA game, Splinter Cell (I think?), etc. etc.

I heard Sonic too somewhere...

Havnt heard anything about an FF7 thing, that would be pretty cool. I was never into Splinter Cell, and tbh, I've already played GTA on 2 other, stronger machines ;)

If I didnt have a PS2, I would have gotten a PSP ;)

X360 is on my christmas list instead(despite lack of free online play, ffs)

I can't decide between X360 or PS3.

PS3 has those great games.

X360 has free online capability. I don't know what your talking about...I know you have to pay to get some more advanced features. Who knows what the hell those are?

No, it's NES to N64 that would be downloadable on the Revolution.

Gamecube games are just backwards compatable on the Rev.

Good enough, I wouldnt want to download 1.5 gig games onto what im sure is the crappy default HD for the Rev.

Not that this thread has anything to do with the revolution ;)

They posted what is permitted in silver(free) and gold(pay) memberships. Silver is mostly crap, such as downloadable content, etc. It gets free online play on weekends, but only gold guys can play games online on weekdays.

PS3 will have free online, at least thats what they say. However, sooner release date, better game selection, and an ATI card make me want the 360 over the 3.

Silver doesn't seem that bad. I mean, I could put in a lot of weekend hours into video gaming...mwahahaha.

PS3 with free online? Hmm, this just got more confusing.

Im sure my brother will get it for advent rising(or whatever the new FF7 is called), or my mom will(she bought our ps2, because she wanted one). Ill get an X360 for christmas, and a revolution after boot camp 2006(Damn my not getting into the national guard in time, and for the next few weeks, whatsoever).

My disclaimer has failed! I blame myself.

There is no starcraft DS planned. Im simply pondering such a wonderous game(N64 got one, DS should too).

too subtle for me this early in the morning :p

but yeah it would be great (and would cement my temptations to get a DS ;))

Ah, Starcraft, I remember you. Seeing War of the Worlds (the red creep especially) reminded me of the Zerg.

Any other Zerg players here?

I must admit I'm under-utilising my DS at the moment. I'm just playing Mario and Luigi's Superstar Saga on it. Then I'm going to move on to Zelda the Minish Cap.
I'm quite looking forward to Nintendogs coming out though.

Yeah, I dont have any good games for mine. Advance wars will change that, for a while at least(cant play it 24/7)

Give me Ultralisks or give me death. My favourite strategy (apart from the early zergling rush) is to slowly build up an army of hydralisks and lurkers (with guardian back-up) and do the dark swarm or whatever its called. I'll drop some infested terrans, as well.

It's not much of a strategy, but damn is it fun!

The online capability will only be free on weekends, I believe. Not completely certain.
