Super Mario all-stars. Great game. =)

I found out that you need a wiimote classic controller to play super mario brothers for the SNES on the virtual console. Oops. Should've known, really...

My 360 just RRoD on me yesterday. At least the repair is free. Anyway, I don't get how you guys can be claiming bad quality in modern games. Just on the 360, you have Oblivion, Fable 2, The Orange Box, Left 4 Dead, Overlord, and Superman Returns. Okay that last one is I'm kidding though it is a guilty pleasure. But those are just off the top of my head. There are some killer titles out there. Now I do miss the days of good Castlevania games (I got Symphany on xbox live), Mario (the only kind of Mario I can stand is 2D ), Zelda, and Metroid. But in the meantime we've gotten Zelda 64, Metal Gear Solid, Knights of the Old Republic 1&2, Panzer Dragoon Saga, Final Fantasy 7, Fable TLC, Pirates Gold, The modern GTAs, etc.

I don't believe for a minute quality has gone down. I believe the sheer amount of games has gone up making finding the true gems harder. Just my .02.

hmm, I think I agree that games have become easier to produce and thus we are getting bombarded with sheer volume. Quantity rather than quality. Wait, should I use "then" or "than"? I could never remember that rule...

Banjo and Kazooie, Donkey Kong 64, though admittedly these are just reproductions of Mario 64 with different skins.

I liked Call of Duty 4, Modern Warfare. Not gonna lie, it was enjoyable. Arkham Asylum looks fun too. Apparently Lara Croft: Underworld wasn't half bad either. Not -great- but it wasn't bad.

Resident Evil 4 was loads of fun.
