I don't know about you, but whenever you are about to finish a game that you've poured hours and hours into, especially a RPG, many times I don't want it to end, and I find myself almost being sad as I approach what I know will be the final stage of the game. Which in itself is quite ironic because your spend the whole game on a quest to such a point, yet you almost don't want to take that.....final step.

My reason for bringing this up, is because after quite a long time, I'm nearing the of Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. I should of finished it a long time ago, but other things distracted me, namely a MMO (not named WoW) that took up to much of my time. But anyways, I'm about to finish it, after nearly a year of owning the game, and its about time. I love the game, its awesome, but like I mentioned above, after you pour so many hours into it, and you take your final steps in the game, a feeling of sadness creeps over me, knowing I will probably never touch this game again. I never replay games, mainly due to not having the time and the fact that their are so many games available.

Is anyone else the same way with their games? Just curious.

I also have a dilema facing me of what to play next. I was planing on going straight into Metroid Prime 3 after finishing TP, but now Super Mario Galaxy is the #1 rated game of all time, which honestly had me a little surprised. To be honest, I wasn't expecting much from Galaxy.

So, for those that have played both, Should I play Metroid Prime 3 or Super Mario Galaxy next?

Everywhere I go I see people raving about Super Mario Galaxy. Mario this, Mario that. Super Mario Galaxy is the greatest game evar!!!!!1 You know what I'm talking about. Yet, I cannot get excited about this game. The screens look interesting, the reviews and been off the charts in praise, and I'm stuck in blahville with barbara walters.

What is it about this lil italian's newest adventure that has everybody going all b-a-n-a-n-a-s?

Does it remind them of simpler childhood times? Does it bring out the inner child in them still? Or wait...wait for it....can it just be that good? I honestly can't recall reading much if any anti-SMG sentiment lately. Don't get me wrong, I'm not against the little fellow, he's done alot of good for the Mushroom Kingdom, I just have my own group of friends that I'd rather spend my time with, such as Link or Samus.

So this brings me to ultimate question, am I the AntiMario? I'm not quite sure to be honest, considering I don't even play violent games, so you would think Super Mario Galaxy would be really twidle my noodle. But so far it hasn't.

Perhaps, Mario just wasn't meant to be loved by all...does this make me a bad person?
