The game doesn't end until you do something after you take out all of the bosses. The final area more or less screams "if you walk through this "door", there's no turning back". And there's a nice little stone that lets you go back to the nexus fairly close to that point as I recall.

As far as the NG+ stockpiling, it's not that necessary to do too much. All your tendencies (aside from character tendency) go back to defaults when NG+ starts, making it pretty easy to either shift it to PD or PW and grab the items the second time through. Provided you have a good enough setup to actually complete the game, you're fairly well covered to do the second runthrough. And since you're familiar with the layout of the game, it shouldn't be any harder to grab the items the second time around. The huge jump in enemy strength aside.

I only have the 1-4 fight left, then whatever goes on after that. The trouble is I would really like to go through the final "door," but for some reason I'm also hesitant to do so.

At the very least, I'll check the DS wiki and make sure I've gotten all the lizards. I'd like to do all the weapons upgrades, but I'd rather get smacked around by 10 more bosses than do 10 trophies or so worth of farming. >_<

I've more or less gotten everything that can just be picked up, so I'd rather farm what I need when the enemies aren't dealing out one hit kills and such. We'll see. I will most likely just decide to continue, and may or may not actually finish all the weapons upgrading.

The two best friends series is hilarious.

I should do more hate filled audio.

Speaking of Ivolt's audio, I woke up earlier with Ivolt's voice in my head singing about GoL monsters wrecking his stride. :wacko:

I really need to stop watching LPs right up until the moment I go to bed.

So, Ico and the Shadow of the Colossus Collection is supposed to be out in the spring? I probably won't be buying it for a rather long time, if ever. But I feel like I need some SotC trophies to go along with my PSN ID. :wacko:

Yes. You do. Please play Shadow of the Colossus. It's so lovely. And if I couldn't use "Milady" on the PSN, something Shadow of the Colossus related was the only thing I would settle for.

Mainly the size of the colossus in that video. :wacko:
Actually, I've always been intrigued by the game and what little I have seen of it, but lacking a PS2 I have never played it. I do seriously think that a PS2 is going to be on my list of things to purchase when I get back from my training.

The PS2 I won on eBay will probably replace my black one, so I'll have a PS2 up for sale with:

Black fat console
Ethernet adapter + 40GB HDD
8MB official memory card setup with FMCB + ESR + HDloader etc
Controller(s) and all hookups.

I hope I can get a decent enough price for it. ^^;;;

There's something about silver PS2s that I just love. And it's not how easily they scratch. :wacko:

If they're scratched they look awful. A good condition one looks all shiney and lovely. However every console bar my Xbox 360 is black in my TV unit, so I'm not sure which PS2 I want to keep. :dead:

One of these days, probably when I'm sitting in a hotel room bored out of my mind, I'll have to talk to a bunch of people and make up a huge list of PS2 games to pick up. :nod:

My step-sister has a silver one, and I never really liked it. I've had a black slim for years, and I adore it. (Though I'm actually on my second one now. The one I happily bought with my first ever paycheck is likely being abused somewhere, if it even still works. :sa-frown:)

I don't have as many consoles, but everything I have is black too. Black TV and stand, black PS3, black PS2, all sitting next to a black bookshelf. :wacko:

Drag you'd need a step up or step down converter, not sure which... But it's a lot of hassle to go through for a console you can easily get in your country. :wacko:

You get dumped back to the nexus after 1-4. There's one more area. :wacko:

There's a room in 2-2 that's filled with lizards. Provided you have the stealth magic and a good AOE (God's Wrath is the best, but firestorm will do). That should get you some of the most major ones. The pure ores can usually be gotten via sidequests. But fuck the pure bladestone. Eternally.

Black TV, black TV stand, black Xbox, black PS3, black PS2, white 360. :low:

My Dreamcast and PS1 are set up temporarily, until I get a shelf unit to put beside the TV. The Dreamcast is yellow. :wacko: The PS1 is grey.

I do have a cute little brown and tan canvas thing that I keep all my extra cords, controllers, broken DSs, etc. in. It's nothing impressive though, and I'm much too lazy to make a mancave post out of it. Plus, it's certainly not adored by any man in this place, and my little corner is hardly a cave. :wacko:

Even with the converter, it doesn't look quite right. It's just... tolerable. And I said that merely because I'm looking into getting a PS2, and that would essentially be everything that I'm looking for right there. :P Rather than me trying to fumble around and check shit installed on it.

However, I shall purchase one in the near(ish) future and attempt to do it myself. Woo...?

The list will be longer than your arm. I could spend the rest of my life playing the good games among the PS2 library, and I doubt I'd finish the list by then. So awesome.

I exhausted the lizard nest spawns last night and did pretty well with Firestorm.

If you're fine playing games from originals/burned discs just get someone to put FMCB/ESR on a memory card for you. No real reason to get a hard drive/modchip/swap magic.
