    Old Games you remember playing but can't remember the name of.

    I don't know about your other two games, but this one is either Vigilante 8 or its sequel, 2nd Offense. The ski resort level is the one that sticks in my head.

    The Escapist's Game Release Date Calendar: The End!

    I feel I should mention a small correction upon looking at July's releases. On July 16, Shin Megami Tensei IV shows as a Wii U release. It is actually coming out on the 3DS, to clear up confusion.

    You are sucked into the last game you played.

    Borderlands 2. At the Catch-A-Ride station outside of Sanctuary. *revs engine* Goooood times.

    Weirdest Phone Calls You've Ever Received

    I'd have to say that apart from the calls that don't have anyone at the other end (they hang up before saying anything), the weirdest phone call I've had was at work. The guy was asking stuff in a shouting...tone. I say tone because I couldn't understand a word he said. It took about two minutes...

    Skill points: To Use or Not To Use?

    That's what I've been finding in Torchlight II. The current active skills as I level up don't seem to interest me, so I've been investing in the starting skill and two passive skills. Even with those three, I'll still be sitting on at least four points when I get the ability to level them up...

    What song do you have the most of?

    Does it count with multiple versions being on the same disc? If so, I have Reach Out to the Truth in vocal and instrumental versions on my copy of the soundtrack disc that comes with Persona 4. All I can say is at least they aren't right next to each other on the track list.

    Trivial compliants you had on a game you otherwise like.

    Seeing as I'm now play Dragon Age: Origins, I'm sure this answer will be a bit predictable. I've heard rumors, but even after seeing the first Mage hat, I was already looking for a "hide helm" option in the game. The dialog sequences don't show them, but running with that on always pulls me a...

    Old but gold - what are you playing?

    All I can say to this is that I'm so glad Sega is releasing the Heritage Collection. I've been having a blast playing Jet Set Radio. In addition, I just reinstalled Sonic CD, so there's that I've been aiming to play, as well.

    Games you beat the first time through without dying

    Now that I think about it, the amount of games that I've beaten without dying really is few and far between. I never beat any of the games on my Steam list without going down at least once, except for maybe Beyond Good and Evil. I can only remember beating Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy VIII...

    So, are you participating in Black March?

    Considering that the first day I can buy my books for my return to college is March 8, the bookstore being closed on April 1, and the quarter beginning April 2, I'm gonna have to say...not a chance. As for recreational books/games, I hardly get those anyway, and even then, I have more than...

    In-game items you wish you could buy IRL

    I'd have to go with the Tales staple, the Sorceror's Ring. Preferably, the one from Tales of the Abyss (cheagle not included). The ability to shoot fire, destroy boulders, and fly up short distances would be very useful with various situations.

    Is The Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword being overshadowed?

    I got it a couple days ago alongside Persona 3: FES thanks to Christmas funds. It's pretty fun so far, though Ghirahim was a pain. My TV is kinda showing it's age with this as well, as I'm seeing black dots in the distance. I'm loving the game overall, though.

    The last boss you fought in a video game is your new boss at work...

    My last boss is Seven Force from Gunstar Heroes. Huh. I wonder which of the seven moods(forms) he'll be today. I think I can handle Urchin Force, but Blaster Force... *shudders*

    Best FF 7 Meteria Combinations?

    I'm liking a certain combo I have on Cid on my current playthrough. That would be Hades+Added Effect alongside a Cut All Materia (the Cut All isn't linked, but the other two are). The Hades+Added Effect on a weapon has the ability to inflict every status ailment that the Hades summon does, but...

    PSP Final Fantasy game

    Uh, apart from having castles and the rise of magic (storywise), FFVI isn't what I'd call medieval. More steampunk than medieval to me. That said, I've only been playing it for a day, and I actually would recommend it. However I'd go for FFIX more, as that is my all-around favorite, and it seems...
