    1. Well, since typically I’m left all home all day while Fowo goes to school, I like to play video games the most.
    2. Sports, more than likely.
    3. That’s a toughy. I think I pretty much do everything that I’d like to. If anything, I’d probably like to go for one of the more creative related hobbies, like drawing or writing.
    4. I dunno if it’s the weirdest, but I like playing dress up in other people’s clothing! (Don’t tell Fowo)

    Relationships aren’t related to hobbies, maybe in the future we can cover these topics!

    1)What are your current top 3 hobbies?
    2)In Terms of your video game hobbie, what are your top 3 favorite games?
    3)If it’s not on your top three, do you enjoy reading as a hobby?

    Mouse Reply:

    1) Video gaming, watching movies, and listening to music in that order
    2) That’s a toughie, I like all my games. Lately though I’ve been enjoying Free Realms, Rock Band, and pretty much every episodic game series that Telltale Games puts out.
    3) I used to! I need to get into it again, I have a large stack of books in my ‘to read’ pile, and just haven’t gotten around to them.

    1) I have to pick just one? Aww, that’s so hard! Um, I’d probably go with pop music, since that encompasses a lot of different genres.
    2) Not very well! But I’ve tried a few times.
    3) Freezepop
    4) Of course!
    5) Caramelldansen!
    6) Who the what now?

    Freezepop is great. A Legendary Frog animation I saw a few years ago got me interested.

    freezepop, eh?
    so have you ever heard of Foxy Shazam? or the Cornbugs? or Colonel Claypool’s bucket of Bernie Brains?

    Can’t say that I have. You ever hear of Atom and His Package or Moxy Fruvous?

    Mouse Reply:

    I have heard of C2B3 actually! They’re weird, but kinda cool, it’s hard to not enjoy a band with so many talented members.

    Oh, hobbies. Okay. ^_^

    1. Do you like reading?
    2. Do you like chess? If you don’t, please try to say it politely, so that you don’t hurt the feelings of a die-hard chess fan (me). ;)
    3. Do you like any card games?

    Mouse Reply:

    Hehe, I’d love to answer some of these questions, but I only answer on Tuesdays, unfortunately.

    If you’d like though, you can head over to the forums and suggest a topic for next week so that you can be better prepared!

    RoSe-BuSTeR Reply:

    Can you please post a message here in advance so that everyone makes it on time? There should be some more days. I don’t like the 24-hours rule. Oh, please answer my questions anyway. I guess I’ll just give up on this thing if I have to make sure I come here on Tuesday. Not always possible. If you want to stick to this strict rule, I guess have fun without me.

    Can do! In fact, I’m revising the entire Ask Mouse guidelines, questions can now be asked for a full week!

    1. I used to really enjoy reading, I don’t do so as much anymore, I really need to get into it again though.
    2. I’m not a big fan of chess, just because I always lose. Actually, I think I’ve only won one game, ever.
    3. I love the Free Realms TCG! It’s great. Beyond that I do play a friendly (non-gambling) game of Texas Hold ‘em now and then.

    1. Dark Cloud/Dark Cloud 2
    2. Any Soul Caliber game
    3. No More Heroes
    4. Red Steel
    5. Okami
    6. Any Final Fantasy game
    7. Any Kingdom Hearts game

    1. I played the original Dark Cloud, it was a very interesting concept, but since I had very nearly beat it within the rental period, I decided not to buy it. I only played a demo version of Dark Cloud 2, but something about it just didn’t captivate me.

    2. I played Soul Calibur on Dreamcast, ages ago, but got more caught up in the whole fact that after you had knocked your opponent out of the ring, you could walk off on your own. Then I picked up Soul Calibur 2 (Gamecube, Link is too cool!) and really enjoyed the whole “dungeon crawl” sort of mode that it had. Most recently I picked up Soul Calibur 4 (PS3, yay Darth Vader) when it was on sale for 10 dollars at Best Buy. I haven’t really gotten into it too much, but I’m not a big fan of fighting games.

    3. I don’t have a Wii, so I haven’t played this one, nor do I have any desire to.

    4. Same as number 3.

    5. Of course! I love Okami, I had this game on my radar since E3 2005. It’s too bad it came out a couple years later on PS2 when all the next gen consoles were getting geared up to launch, because it got lost in the shuffle. It’s one of my top games, it’s got a beautiful art style, the game play is fun, the story is interesting. I had it pre-ordered on PS2 and bought it the day it came out. One of the best.

    6. *fangirl squee* Of course! I have Final Fantasy 1 on NES, Final Fantasy 1&2 on PS1 (Origins), and on Dawn of Souls (GBA), Final Fantasy 3 on it’s first US release on DS, Final Fantasy 4 as part of Final Fantasy Chronicles (PS1 with Chrono Trigger!), Final Fantasy 5&6 as part of Final Fantasy Anthology (PS1), I have 7, 8, and 9 (PS1 as well), 9 is the absolute best of the series in my opinion, I have 10 on PS2, 11 on PS2 and PC (played for 3 years), and I have the collector’s edition of Final Fantasy 12. I bought my PS3 for Final Fantasy 13, 13 Versus and Metal Gear Solid 4 primarily, but there’s been a lot of other games that have come out since then that I’ve loved (Little Big Planet). And I also have an interest in Final Fantasy 14, but primarily only if my PC can run it. But yes, I love Final Fantasy, great games, even if they are a bit cliche (particularly the original ones).

    7. Yep! I played Kingdom Hearts when it first released, as a rental, and eventually picked it up later. Then I picked up Kingdom Hearts 2 when it released, and there was a special deal if you bought Chain of Memories (GBA) with it, so I got them both. I’ve finished all but Chain of Memories, mostly because I’m stuck at the very end and can’t get the card I need to open a door. I love the original, everything just flowed so perfectly. The second one felt a lot more rocky to me, like they couldn’t decide what they were doing with the plot, that and the first three hours of the intro are just boring. The second one did have it’s highlights (Timeless River and the Tron level come to mind, as well as Pirates of the Caribbean) but for the most part it was pretty forgettable to me, but I will play it a second time around, see if it’s any better for me.

    Since movies are a hobby, what are your top 3 favorite Movies?

    Reply

    Mouse Reply:

    Such hard questions! Um… I like all three of the Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy! I suppose that’s taking the easy way out though, so… I really, really like Wall-E too. And for a third, um, Nightmare Before Christmas/Corpse Bride because Tim Burton is a genius!
