Started playing Super Princess Peach on the DS today.

Liked what I played but I can already tell that this is going to be a game where I'll feel the need to collect everything.

Bloody good game, enjoying it more than Fallout 3 New Vegas


You should try the Baldur's gate DA games if you like it, same engine

A lot of FPS games of late run on the same engine....................
(same software, but the game can be different)

Just stopped playing.
I can see my self putting this one on the "done" pile some time

Trials Evolution, is a lot of fun but will take a lot of practice for me together most of the gold medals, much wider scope and variety this time around, need to add more people to Live I think to compare times. Played some Fez for an hour and Serious Sam as well on XBLA, they really throw everything at you in that game, completed it on PC way back when, still love it!

Yes.
The PSP one has control issues as the PSP lacks twin sticks

Get the PS2/360 version

How are you finding it on the DC? I switched to MAME because the controller was making my hand ache. Then I wired up a Mega Drive controller to a DC one.

Strangley much better on the DC pad than the arcade stick, switched last night and remapped the controls slightly differently. I don't know, the DC Dpad and buttons seem to work better for me. I've hardly used my copy of the game so I feel like I'm justifying it's existance!!

It's an underrated classic, one of my favourite DS platformers.

There's quite a bit of life and replay value in it if you do collect everything. Shame they didn't market it better.

I've been having a go at The Death & Return Of Superman on SNES...not the best beat 'em up I've played, but certainly not the worst. I never really took any notice of that storyline arc in the comics at the time so I'm interested to see how it turns out.
