I was just playing my Nintendo DS during my lunch break at work (which went for a little too long, actually ), playing an old Game Boy Advance game I never got to finish before, Mega Man Zero 4. Anyone else here ever played it?

In every game in the series, they use a Star Wars quote. I think maybe in the first one, they said, "Shhh! You have hibernation sickness." And then I was playing the fourth one today and they said, "That blast came from Ragnarok! That thing's operational!" Or something like that. They've done a lot of quotes in the game, I can't even remember all of them. But I was just wondering if anyone else enjoyed this game series as much as I do. I've been a big fan of Mega Man since I fell in love with Mega Man 2 (for the NES) as a child.

Oh, and I might throw in a small nod to myself, given that my name is in the end credits for Mega Man Battle Network 4. They left the 'o' out of 'Christopher', but that game was notorious for errors anyway. For me, that was like, video game immortality--better than the old High Score thing they have in the arcades, because no matter how well someone does, they can never change the end credits. So, check that out if you haven't played it.

Anyway, I just thought it was really cool that whoever writes for the game is clearly a big Star Wars fan and didn't mind quoting from the PT or the OT.

Well...I know some of you regular visitors may be hungry for another serving of The KFC Empire Strikes Back...With Flavor! And I can assure you, I will be sure to serve up a fresh episode soon. Hmm...maybe I should write it up tomorrow night, while watching Bionic Woman. But...I better go. Mega Man ZX: Advent for the Nintendo DS is out in stores today (not to mention Napoleon Dynamite: The Video Game and Chessmaster, for you chess people out there--I've been meaning to sharpen my skills, too).

May the Force be with us all.
