Who here has played any of the games in the Paper Mario series? I've played Paper Mario and Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door. Unlike a lot of other games you might play, these games really are interesting, in fact fun in a way different than most other games. Below are summaries and review for the two games:
[!]Spoilers Below[/!] Paper Mario
In Paper Mario Bowser kidnaps the seven Star Spirits, and steals the Star Rod. He then tried to kidnap Princess Peach by lifting her castle up into the sky and under his own. Mario, in the castle with Peach, challenges Bowser. Bowser, activating the Star Rod's power, becomes invincible, and beats Mario easily, blasting him through the sky and into Goomba Village, home to a single family of goombas. From here Mario must travel to far off lands to rescue the 7 star spirits and challenge Bowser, retrieve the Star Rod, and save Princess Peach.
Overall Paper Mario was a very fun game for me, however there are few side quests to do and once you finish the game, you finish the game. You can only turn off the power and go back to your previous save file. Simply there aren't many things you can do when you are bored and don't want to get into another big part of the game. I give it an 8 out of 10.
Paper Mario 2: The Thousand Year Door
In Paper Mario 2 you must search for the 7 Crystal Stars in order to open the legendary Thousand Year Door and obtain the treasures within. Meanwhile, he finds that Princess Peach has once again been kidnapped, though by the X-Naht Organization (I think its bases off of Nazis).
This game is considerably more challenging when compared to the previous games, while at the same time introducing many new side quests. Unlike the previous there are actually some new things you can do once completing the main storyline. To make things even more fun, the story of the game is very intriguing.

So, has anyone played either of those two games or Super Paper Mario for the Wii (I haven't had the chance yet) and if so what did you think?

ZamFights Beta should come around Christmas, now.
Spoiler Alert:ZamFights Progress
Summary
ZamFights, a Pokemon Mass Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game, developed by Pokezam's Webmaster Freezewarp, continues its development into Alpha 7, where you can trade Pokemon with a global trade station like feature and battle other trainers. Several bugs were also fixed.
Alpha 9, now in development, will feature numerous events and locations to go to, that is up to Fuschia. It will also feature the new, interactive map, numerous minor features, and an altered look.
Alpha 9 should come around Thanksgiving, and Alpha 10, or the public Beta, should come around Christmas.
Alpha 8 Preview
I actually like the idea of a sixth generation Pokemon Emerald remix; few people think of the possibilities that one game has in full, colorful, barely pixaleted 3-D (in other words, think of a Play Station 2 or Xbox Original). The existing 3D we have with the DS is good, but the next generation of handheld consoles should give much more detail to the game - imagine being able to change your perspective to look into the sky while the stormcloud is slowly stretching across the region once Kyogre and Groudon have both been awoken. Imagine seeing the sky tower, and a green tail, to the left, and mirages to the right. For that matter, think of Mirage Island!
There are so many other moments for which we could experience in perspective-3D Pokemon Emerald; the battle frontier is one example, but just seeing the sun rise and set as the time passes in Dewford city would be awesome. Of course, my dreams may be more than one generation away; are there any Wii games that even would make this real?
