    hi,
    well, like i said i had questions , those question are related to the saturn and game cube...
    i'm new to saturn collecting and i whant to know if..:

    ...fighter megamix is rare , i never saw it before , am i right or this game was one of the last released games for saturn just like panzer dragoon saga and other ones , those games have a limited number of copies. am i right?

    ...does it worth 39.99 canadians bucks?

    and for the game cube:
    does the enter the matrix version of the nintendo console is playable? would you recomend it to me or i need to wait to see a deal for the ps2 version? (i whant to know all the story of the matrix , so ill buy it anyway for a console or another)

    thx.

    I have no idea about your Game Cube question but I can tell you that Fighters Megamix is not rare at all in Japan. You can buy good conditioned copies for as little as 200 yen !! Just import the Japanese version.

    ugh

    Stay as far away from that game as possible on ANY console.

    The Matrix game is crap on all consoles, so it does not matter which one you pick. Fighters Megamix is not too rare, It would depend on the condition it is in, and if you want to deal with ebay.

    Fighters Megamix wasnt so late, I got it 2nd hand during the Saturns life, the pal one is cheap as chips.

    well, you should come soon , i think ill buy it.. :smt025

    i don't care your ideas about the film , i loved the trilogy , its an underestimated one , alot of people say that its only about special efects , bs, imo.

    i just whant to know if i should wait to see the ps2 version, if the gamecube one is playable , not someone that say that he whant to eat me because i love this , and i don't whant people that say that its total busshit too, i just what to know if i can play it. please respect my opinions.

    they said matrix on xbox is 1080i but WTF i couldn't see what the fuss was all about... it's just boring and mediocre below average game sprinkled with movie footage which looks nice at 1080i on xbox...

    no i didn't buy the game. hell no. i d/l and burnt to see whether it's worth buying but i wish I use that dvd-r for something more useful now... like that paris hilton dvd rip :p (don't ask me where i got the rip coz can't tell you)

    cheers

    am thinking I right that you lik matrix??if case is that, then it may make happy you to game purchase.The Gamecube version is playable,same as ps2,shit you like,purchase at once,with some salty balls. :smt033 :smt042

    As for Fighters megamix, the answer is it as rare as the stuff that comes out of my backside,which incidentally sometimes goes for around thirty dollars too.It is worth around five dollars at the most and it is not, I repeat not rare.

    I would say that it is an underrated trliogy, it makes more sense than calling it underestimated. :-D

    Get the GC version.

    Story elements

    The so called story elements you are missing are not really important anyways. Just rent it because it can be easily completed in 2 hours or so.

    Enter the Matrix sucks ass, you're better off not buying it.

    I'll tell you what happens. Ghost and Nirobi go to the post office to get the package the fine Asian chick delivers in the Animatrix. They kill everyone in sight. Three hours later they are still running away from the post office (becasue in the world of the matrix, the post office is some gigantic building that is crawling with cops armed with automatic weapons.) I got as far as the car chase before I turned it off.

    Seriously, it sucks donkey balls. Just assume that Ghost and Nirobi do all kinds of slow motion bullet-time flips and lot of people die. That about sums it up.

    If you are looking for a start, I would suggest you get yourself a Sega Saturn and nights, burning rangers, guardian heroes, Dragon force, and magic knight rayearth. Cheap, games are easy to get off ebay usa. You can play imports with a ST-Key.

    But the game is poor, and the movies are worse.

    The first Matrix is a great sci fi movie in conception & production. The last 2 were semi religious sausage fests for the Wachowski transexual. The story was so silly only simple people could gewt any enjoyment out of it. Granted, some of the special effects are very good. And you can walk through the gamee in a few hours, save your money to buy some good games & films.

    OK, I must say I HATE this company, but.....

    Fighters Megamix Cheap CLICK HERE

    I believe that is just under $20 Canadian, which makes that shop's price a COMPLETE rip-off

    well, i think its the oposite of what you think, the first matrix was great , yes, but the story could be followed by everyone , the second and third matrix is complicated , and deep sometimes hide from the amazings special effects , alot of people just didn't really loved it because they only saw the specials effects. :no

    somes interesting questions are debating all over the web and somes interesting search where publised , for me , the matrix is a piece of art , that can be viewed on differents stages, i tought that the story wasn't develloped the first time i saw it (reloaded) , but i knew it was because i lose some precious informations by time to time , i viewed it for the 2nd time, the 3rd, the 4th, 5th time and so on and i saw some really interesting plot.

    its true that the matrix reloaded was made like no other movie.... a bit like a dream that change without advertising, between fight and philosophical talks ....

    Who is really the one? Neo? are you really sure about it? what about smith? wait , wait, what did morpheus said? :

    there's a man born inside the matrix that as the power ti change everything he whanted , after is dead , an oracle profitised is return , is return generate the destruction of the matrix. l

    dno if i say that neo is the father of smith, wait a little , neo say : I'm your father to smith? :smt045 the code of neo was place inside smith , smith is not like he was now he is new or, ''a new man, mr.anderson.'' do the link by yourself now.....


    ''Confused, Mr. Anderson? It'll all become clear in a moment...''


    so neo destructed smith , smith returned, neo is the father of smith.....

    let's rewrite an important line now: there's a man born inside the matrix ( a program is sure to be born in the matrix) that as the power to change everything he whanted (remeber, smith could change everything he whanted , like a mouth or a wall, neo just controlled some things before is dead ), after is dead (neo, destoying smith) , an oracle profitised is return , is return would generate the destruction of the matrix.... can this be true? well, when neo reach the arcitect , the war isn't over , but when smith is conected to deus....

    could it really be...?

    ''Making the connection will Blow your Head off.''

    that's interesting isn't it? the story is deep, dig...

    " Look past the flesh, look through the soft gelatin of these dull cow eyes and see...''

    While I agree with your choices (GET NIGHTS!!! NOW!!!! *clenches teeth*), those games (except for Nights) are not exactly cheap. Well, of course cheap is a rather ambiguous and relative adjective, but here are some ebay prices for the US versions:

    -Guardian Heroes: $50 with 19 bids
    -Dragon Force: $61 with 12 bids
    -Burning Rangers: $31 with 6 bids
    -MKR: $12 with 8 bids

    They are good games though :smt023

    I always thought it was people seeing things in the plot holes that weren't really there.

    If you read too much into anything, you can find new and "hidden" meanings that may not really exist.

    Matrix 2 and 3 = Cash Cow over milked

    I don't think the two sequels were that bad, the story was pretty cool (how the whole "one" thing was just a scam, and even the war is just another level of control over the humans, and also the machines.) Kind of reminds me of Orwell's 1984, where there's this war that everyone fights not to win, but becasue the war itself is the metod by which society is controlled.

    Of course, we did not need to see Keanu's ass in Matrix Reloaded...
