well, I may have found an old item hiding on Ruined that will facilitate it . . . and then it will just be a matter of time. I admit I'm not as active as I once was, but most of the really expensive dragons are mine already. Those wings are my goal at the moment. As for the differences of the Lalune dragons . . . I am not sure I want to get them all. I have the one that I like most already . . .

I got pokemon X and Black~ time to save up for Animal Crossing~!  

[Alexander Magnus]

sweatdrop I never enjoyed pokemon. Ever.  

[Disturbing Tale Teller]

Pokemon has been one of the few games I've actually been able to beat.
It's hard to keep my attention span on most games, and I think the only other two I've been able to complete have been Dragon Age 2, and Portal 1.

Guys, I'm super happy, today's my birthday biggrin  

[Alexander Magnus]

Happy Birthday, gurl! *gluggles heartily*

I just beat War for Cybertron again, and started a "second" playthrough. Admittedly, all I'm doing is loving the crap out of the game with even more powers active. Oh, and I preordered the game once upon a time so not only do I have a pew-pew lazer like from the old show, but I also have a G1 skin for Optimus. Yep, Boxy Prime is awesome. So is playing the game using Megatron's Plasma Cannon on every character. BOOM!!!  

[transformersgirl13]

That's awesome Magnus! I love g1 Optimus, he's so cool. I need a Megatron arm Canon, for reasons

One: I got my wings, to great effect. Now, horns, tail, and wings . . . I can go full demon. Magni happy.

Two, I did something awesome tonight on that game. As Grimlock, in dino mode, he has some awesome kill animations. One of the hardest generic enemies in the game is the "leaper." It is only vulnerable on it's back, and that makes it hard to deal with. When you use the "kill it now" kind of move with the dinosaur (yes, a metal space dinosaur that breathes fire!), he launches the leaper in the air with his teeth, then lets the leaper fall on his tail point . . . and roasts them on his tail. My jaw hit the floor!!! I was overcome by awesome.

Oh I've used that one! I freaking love Grimlock. I finally have his fall of cybertron toy, I was so half when I got him. I love sine if his kills though, like when he bites those friggin huge incecticons in half with a single bite! He is just beyond epic.  

[Alexander Magnus]

His toy was disappointing . . . though I have seen a 3rd party kit with a new head, bigger sword and shield, and a piece to fix the very hollow belly. That kit might make things better for the toy if you buy it.

As for the game, Yoder, the vast majority of the game is a shooter. Grimlock's section was all melee. For projectile attacks, you pick up batteries (or enemies) and lob them at enemies. Unlike the rest of the game, you cannot even transform when you wish. That must be done through a meter that builds up. When you do shift to the alt mode, the game developers did their best to really play up what you change into.
