Five little fishies swimming in the sea.

Teasing Mr. Alligator you can’t catch me, no you can’t catch me!
Along came Mr. Alligator quiet as can be…..................

SNAP!

Okay, my analogy may or may not be direct. But in my mind, it makes all too much sense.

For the past few years my gaming has been solely 360 and PC and until recently I fed my addiction accordingly and happy in my niavity.

Not that long ago (about a month or so) I finally made the choice between DS and PSP and went with the DS. (something i had been debating over for many moons).

Now I remember how fantastic the hand held gaming world can be.

No word of a lie, within a week and half of my purchase I was stranded in an auto shop, working my way through Fallen King while the shopboys spent the better part of 3 hours just to replace my battery. My DS now stays in my purse. :)

Having brought my attention to this more mobile form of gaming, of which I have not done as seriously since the Gameboy days. (you know the one without colour.) I now face a new dilemma.

I bought too many games off the top and am now suffering from DS ADD.

My concern was that I would not have a game to correlate with my ever changing moods and styles. I am a girl. I do change my mind according to my mood ;)

So currently my five little fishies are as such.

Galactrix (I am very addicted to this at the present time)
Rhythm Heaven (of wich I am indifferent to but still play every day)
Fallen King (I LOVE this game for its reminicent feel to the original side scrolling POP that I used to spend hours on with my old PC – more jarring spikes please!)
Dragon Sword ( I will always be a ninja at heart)
and Kirby Super (nostalgic reasons)

Now these five little fishies are keeping me busy. So busy in fact that my 360 has only received movie love as of late, and I plan to make a date with “the box” out of guilt and a longing for my tetris.

I often find myself wondering why i am not able to choose one game and play it through before moving on to the next.
But I seem to have become the casual dater of DS gaming; never committing too much time to any one in particular and always promising the others that I will call upon them later.

I have a very serious relationship waiting in the wings (by way of Chrono Trigger thanks to a friend who gave me a giftcard) but I know that this potential relationship will take much more dedication and could quite possibly end, albeit temporarily, my encounters with the five little fishies.

So what’s a gal to do?

Essentially all the games will tie together in a neat pile and I will be ready for the next set of fishies, but for now I am a DS-er who feels like she needs a good Rx.

(With Galactrix in the lead this week.)
