||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the only thing sorely missing is arch carrier as the battle theme. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Has it been released yet? :O |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
have you seen any new anime yet? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
has anyone heard anything about auto modellista? that looks real cool to me.. and the new tenchu: wrath of heaven |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i cant wait to Ico 2, the first one was awesome, probably he best game for the ps2 so far. I'm also looking forward to Silent Hill 2, not sure if they should have include automatic weapons though. anyone else played Ico? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
auto modellista: race game with cell shading. the graphics are awesome, but they fucked up the physics |
||||||||

sadist: who is that in your avatar? |

|

Also Zone of the Enders: 2nd runner comes out the 11th. Looks to be a great mech game. And Winning Eleven 6 (soccer/football)is finally being released in the US. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, I'm playing it right now. I'm about 10 hours in. Just getting control of Jr. |

xenosaga is a great epic, i love it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
cool momo link |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what's wrong w/ the physics? that's one of the most important game elements to me.. I'm tempted to get it though based on how cool it looks (cel shading being pulled off well in video games is kindof rare .. I think it looks somewhat awkward sometimes.. then again I'm basing this on what I've seen from tv previews etc.) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
auto modellista: sadist is right i heard they screwed the game up |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
there is alot of glitches and slowdowns |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hah. my friends are all in love with this game. i personally don't get it. almost no exploration, its like an interactive movie. what the hell happened to games. i mean, i think ff7 is the greatest rpg ever behind chrono trigger, and that was relatively linear, but games like xenosaga piss me off. i'll watch evangelion instead. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes it does piss me off how xenosaga is 80% cut scenes and 20% gameplay, but that is just is how games are these days, i guess we have to just live with it or don't play the games |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that sucks.. I think FF7 was definately one of the best games I've ever played,,, and I'm not even an RPG guy at all.. but that one was amazing.. it even prompted me to buy the next two.. despite the fact that I never finished 8 ..and I never finished 9.. I just didn't care as much. though FF8 had some fucking AMAAAAZING graphics (like when you controlled your lead character through a war that was being fought in the background... it incorperated the kind of graphics you'd normally only see in cutscenes.. the fact taht the cut scenes in this one were even minimally interactive was astonishing to me at the time |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
or we can buy Shigeru Miyamoto games. zelda, mario, those are entirely interactive. thats where its at now i'm afraid, outside of a few flagship titles on ps2 games have gone downhill. if people could get over graphics and settle for great gameplay than things might get better, but it seems as though they can't. evidence of why the xbox sold any units at all. |

My older brother had the original Xenogears.. Despite it taking the duration of his puberty to complete he said that it was one of the best games he'd ever played(watched). I showed him a review of Xenosaga the other day and he said he was definately going to pick it up. I also just picked up Skies of Arcadia : Legends a few days ago for my Gamecube and have been playing nonstop ever since. While it lacks the technical polish found in most of Square's heavyweights it more than makes up for it in childlike charm. I really like the sense of ownership you get out of managing your own pirate ship/crew/base as well. Has anyone else played this game(Dreamcast or Gamecube)? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that game is excellent. i had it for dreamcast. i need to buy a gamecube still, but that and zelda: wind waker are the first titles i'm picking up. the original xenogears was good but the second disc nearly ruins the experience. sitting in a chair and recalling events is not my idea of good gameplay. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
From what I hear, the Gamecube edition has heaps of added content. Were there bounties and discoveries in the original version? Definately buy a Gamecube for Wind Waker if nothing else. From everything I've read and seen I'll bet it's going to be Cabbog's new "Favorite Game of All Time". Nintendo knows exactly what they're doing. |
||||||||

|
|
yea i lean more towards my gamecube now than ps2, zelda soon :0 |

games are becoming hollywood |

nintendo seems to be the only company left interested in actually making games and not just interactive movies. the nice thing is that miyamoto understands that games are supposed to be a seperate experience from cinema, so he doesn't use cinematic techniques to get his point across in things like mario and zelda. i have a ps2 and a dreamcast, plus a genesis, saturn and snes. i can't remember if there were bounties or discoveries, although i think there were in the original skies. i haven't played it in quite some time. dreamcast was an awesome system for its short lifespan. |

legend of zelda is coming out for the GBA soon, might get it. Never played a zelda game before but its reputation, plus the lack of good games for the GBA might persuade me to buy it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I was playing the new Zelda in a store the other day. It's great the animation and lighting effects are truely amazing, not to mention it is crazy how well it controls. A must buy for any cube owner, I can't wait. |

whos planning on buying a gameboy advance SP? looks tight as hell. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah if I get soem extra $$$ from taxes I might get one, looks so cool. Have you seen the more "adult" ads for it? Very cool indeed. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'd love to get one if i had the money, i've already got a GBA with a built in light anyway so its pretty pointless me getting one. are the old Zelda games really as good as there reputation? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Final Fantasy Tactics is a must buy for the GBA! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes. chrono trigger is the best of the snes era of games though, but that only exists on snes. it would be pretty cool if they made a chrono trigger advance or something. |
||||||||
|

that game boy advance SP looks not bad, but will be hell for people with large hands!! xenosaga... don't know when it will come out where i live (i'm not even sure it will actually come out), but it looks interesting : ) in fact i'm not fond of RPGs but the game appealed to me, am i silly : / child810 > ads url doesn't work... |

I'll be picking up a Gameboy Advance SP as well as the Gamecube adaptor - I never take the Gameboy anywhere other than my bed anyway so it will be just like having a Super Nintendo. I bought a load of games for my GBA initially.. The only ones I haven't traded back in are Tactics Ogre : Knight of Lotus, Metroid Fusion, and Zelda : A Link to the Past. Doom was a straight port of the crusty old PC version and got monotonous halfway through the second level; neither of the Castlevania games hit the spot, especially in comparison to the PS1 Symphony of the Night; Golden Sun was too flakey and generic for my taste; and Mario World was good but I hadn't been away from the original long enough to really enjoy it like I should. I've never played Mario World 2 but it looks great - I've also heard Advance Wars is quite a bit of fun.. I'll have to give them both a try. I haven't heard anything truely ample about Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles or Tactics yet, the floodgates will most likely blow open at this year's E3. |

I thought Secret of Mana was the best rpg for the SNES. It's a lot of fun with two players.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm glad that Xenosaga is mostly cut scenes, because the story is really good. Xenogears's was too. Too many of the recent RPG's I've played have lacked a great story. I basically bought the game for the story alone....might as well take a book that's much more evolved! :] |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
You're right, I never even played Xenogears but I loved watching it. I'd make my brother stop the text so I could run to the bathroom.. What a nerd I am! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I still think Crono Trigger is the best RPG ever released. FF7 second, Mario RPG third. Funny, they are all square games. Also, with the current gen of consoles i bought an X-box. The PS2 is overpriced and underpowered, unfortunately, i forsee the Gamecube failing as a platform. |

FF CC is final fantasy crystal chronicles coming soon on gamecube |

My list goes like this : 1.Gamecube 2.Xbox 3.PS2 I could wax on and on over the sheer brilliance of the majesty that is Nintendo. Design, style, appeal, aesthetics, gameplay, yaddayadda and so forth. A Nintendo game is a labor of love and it shows. I bought the Xbox for it's potential capabilities. I was lured into dishing out $200 after reading articles on Deus Ex 2, Pyschonauts, Star Wars : KOTOR, BC, and Black & White. So far, with the exception of Halo and Splinter Cell, the platform's been dishing out nothing but pure shit.. Vexx? What the fuck. Whoever thought up that idea should have their balls ripped off with a pair of hot prongs. Not only is it a horrible game, it's downright insulting... As for the other, outside of several of Square's games I was never interested much in the Playstation franchise. I thought Grand Theft Auto III was really fun for the first few hours.. After that it lost it's luster. What other big games does this console have again? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Fable and Starcraft Ghost for the Xbox also look amazing. Hopefully they'll both be out before the year's end. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
for the PS2 Ico remeains my favourite game so far, definately worth getting. Silent Hill 2 and Timesplitters 2 are also good... apart from that there isn't much unfortionately. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
If you're into golf get Hot Shots 2 for PS2, I've had it for a year and still play it once a week. Great game. |
