    You know whats strange? Whenever I get an email about someone posting in a thread and it's Jamtex, the font is always in Tahoma. Only when it's Jamtex.

    No, wrong. I don't want one, simple as that.

    Such as? I have Onechanbara Revolution which does have a version on the PS2 but that's about it. The DDR games are on many different systems so they don't count :p. In fact I had 4 on the PS1, 2 on the DC and now 2 on the Wii.

    Nah, I have trashed the 360 for the piss poor console build design but then again I guess most people have. I do have a soft spot for the 360 though. Maybe I just like the underdog? or at least in Japan it is.

    I'm surprised you don't own a PS2, Yakumo. Maybe I haven't read a lot of your posts lately.

    You're missing out on a lot of good games, like Shadow of the Colossus for instance. Or Ico.

    I guess it depends on if you like JRPGs or action games, like God of War or whatever.

    EDIT:

    And I'm not trying to piss you off or anything, but if you like Princess Crown games so much, why don't you buy a PS2 for Odin Sphere at least? Is there a Wii port confirmed or something?

    Let's just say I'm past that age of needing to own everything. I know I'm missing out on some killer games but what I don't have I can't miss :nod: I don't even have time to play all the stuff I do own.

    Everytime I play a PS2, even if it's an awesome game, I just feel like it was wasted on the hardware most of the time. I really do.

    I see what you mean. I don't think I'm there yet, but a few years ago I'd do anything I could to get a PS3 or whatever for MGS4, and now I really only "sorta" want to try that game out.

    And I agree on that not having time to play everything I own, too.:lol: I've got several games I haven't even started yet. Actually, a lot of them are PS2 games. Then again most of them are JRPGs I bought just because they were JRPGs when I was like 16 or 17 years old, and now I actually don't want to play them now. Or I'm on a long break from JRPGs anyway.

    I think in a persons life we have the urge to play more at times than others. A few years back I really got in to PC Engine. So much so that I have bought a collection of over 50 games in only a little over 3 or 4 months. I loved the style, the searching for never before played games. These days though I just don't have that same feeling.

    THIS.

    I know this same exact feeling.

    When I got into my SNES sugar-rush 3ish years ago, I searched far and wide for those must-have titles. Heck, I even used a Japanese courier service to get all three Parordius games for the SFC.. cost me $50 which was like a small fortune then, but it was worth it! I bought a bunch of other shooters and critically acclaimed SNES games, but I didn't play through them all... then I moved on to obtaining Gamecube gems and I still didn't play through all them.

    It's a vicious, sometimes delicious cycle.

    I stopped buying so many games for nearly 6 months and now i'm back to my old tricks. I've played a lot more in the last 2 years then ever though.

    So true. My friends who refer to themselves as "gamers" are always bugging me to play the latest games. I tell them that I have the rest of my life to play games, especially in my retirement years :nod:

    It feels like I'm re-building my collection in order to enjoy my games later in life. It's rare that I power up a game... usually Saturn... I just have no time.

    Poor excuse, if you didn't buy a Wii then you could have saved a ton of money and still played lots of good game. :p

    Very very true, lots of times I can't be arsed to play anything and others I will go out and buy games as I have the urge to play them, the SFC I bought was on a whim and all the games I am playing, I do already have in a box back in the UK... but there are times when F1 Hero 94, Super Mario Bros, Super Mario Kart, Ranma 1/2 just call to you. :)

    It's called getting old (and having a kid). Seems the older I get and the more state-of-the-art the games get, the further back I go. I play Mame and arcade PCBs more than anything. I just bought a Wii for Mario Kart basically, and have had a PS3 for Blu Rays. Yet, my Sigma gets the most action. It is the perfect "system" if your gaming time is in 20-30 minute bursts.

    Game get. The 2nd (and likely last) game for my Wii.

    Initial impressions: good luck reading this bullshit. Fun though.

    I like it very much. Great old school 2D slash'em up with RPG elements. i can see it being a bit of a pain in the arse for those who can't read Japanese though.

    I see it being a pain in the ass for people that DO read Japanese.

    No, the number of foreigners who can understand old Japanese. Basically like 8 or so.

    Yeah, true. There's quite a lot on there that I can't understand. Still, the action and beauty is keeping me on it so I can't complain. I wonder if it will ever get an English translation?
