What Game Should I Get?

[Moy]

Here's a PS3 question!

Little Big Planet, Burnout and Unreal Tournament, or Ratchet and Clank Future?

Dismissing the fact I have never played the PS3, I've played R & C 2, 3, and Deadlocked, so Future must be as good as those. If not better.

Hmm let's see..

It depends what you're into, if you are into RPG's then the obvious choice would be FF VII, but I won't say that, instead try The Legend of Dragoon, it's one disc longer, plus it has a good story plot, great game if you've never played any RPG's before.

If you're into fighting I'd suggest any Tekken or Street Fighter Alpha game, relatively the 3rd one from each series, they are must have's if you are into them.

It depends what you're into, if you are into RPG's then the obvious choice would be FF VIII...

Fixed.

Seriously, FF7 is a decent game unless you were there when it came out. I know that by saying this I sound like an old grandfather who's fussing at the whippersnappers, but it's true.

Final Fantasy VIII, on the other hand, is still amazing. Seriously, it's great.

Also, give Final Fantasy Tactics a try. It's hella good and the original was for the Playstation.

You've also got Mega Man X4-6 (IIRC) if you're into that whole really frackin' hard games stuff. I still haven't beat X6...there's just one boss that is amazingly difficult.

Resident Evil if you haven't played that on some other system somewhere.

The list goes on....but I cannot think of what else I might like to add.

[Edit:]

Oh, duh. As Gates below me pointed out, Metal Gear Solid. Duh. Duh a thousand times, duh.

METAL GEAR.

Spoiler

But seriously, the MGS games are all top notch.[/spoilers]

 

[Jimnymebob]

Crash Bandicoot 2- you NEED that.

If you want a difficult game, try MoHo, or Ball Breakers as I think it was called in the US, that was quite fun.

If you are a fan of the old FF games, don't get VII, because I was disappointed with it really, because the whole bolt and quake materia level 2 combined with all materia level 39 stuff really annoys me. The storyline may be great, but if you know it, you might as well play VIII or IX.

 

[BloodyPuppy]

An original PSX game? I'd recommend Final Fantasy Tactics, and if you like strategy games a lot then try Front Mission 3 as well. Also, I really enjoyed Star Ocean: The Second Story, and I don't even like jRPGs. Darkstalkers 3 might be worth a look too if you like 2D fighters.

 

[Sensai]

Oh, got another one. It's an RPG, which you've already got an abundance of, but it's...odd. The combat system is kinda similar to Chrono Trigger. Anyways, it's called Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete. Really cool game.

 

[Gerudo Warrior]

for any D&D or roleplaying fans i suggest Baulders gate 2. Still definitely my fav game next to ffx.

tales of syphionia psx,i win.

Guess spammers from YouTube also come here. I'm pissed now. Everyone posts that, maybe because they have nothing else to write.

 

[OmegaXXII]

Crash Bandicoot 2- you NEED that.

Lol, I was actually going to mention that game, though it sounds a bit kiddish to be recommending so I just omitted that, Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back is by far THE BEST action/adventure game you will ever play for PSX, really.

 

[Omis]

What is a good mech game for the 360? The fast mechs not the tank mechs.

I spent months without playing any other games trying to 106% that game. I had to resort to looking in gaming magazines cheat sections in the shop to figure out how to get the coloured gems .

It was great, you'd be able to get all crystals in at least 3 days if you were new to the series, but getting all the gems was really difficult, but really fun.

Talking about kiddy games, Gex Deep Cover Gecko is epic, seriously.

 

[Sensai]

Talking about kiddy games again, although not for the PSX, Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime for the DS is amazing.

Random, yes. Factual, yes.

 

[Jimnymebob]

I have that. Beat it. Good times. I wouldn't really call it an adventure game though, just a platformer. You don't really explore.

 

[Sensai]

knightzy: Was just noting that your Animal Crossing title is different.

 

[Jimnymebob]

Thank you Knightzy.

I've got 80 bucks to spend at GameStop. I'm looking for DS/Wii/GBA/GC games. Any recommendations?

 

[S@Lyt]

Well if you like brawl def jam icon is just like it just alot better

 

[ranmaru]

To Overload:

Rpg:

Skies of Arcadia; Megaman Battle Network (any from 1 to 6), Custom Robo

Srpg:

Fire Emblem: Path of Radience;

For fun with others:

Bomberman Generation

 

[BloodyPuppy]

Overload: I second Skies of Arcadia Legends and Fire Emblem Path of Radiance for the Gamecube, and Megaman Battle Network for the GBA (namely 3), and add Front Mission for the DS and Dragonball Budokai Tenkaichi 3 for the Wii.

 

[Sensai]

I've got 80 bucks to spend at GameStop. I'm looking for DS/Wii/GBA/GC games. Any recommendations?

DS
Kirby Super Star Ultra (or whatever it's called; only if you don't have it on the SNES)
Chrono Trigger
Final Fantasy IV
Final Fantasy III
Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime (seriously: this is the most fun I've had on my DS to date, besides maybe...)
The Phoenix Wright trilogy!

GC (you might not have played some of these classics)
Pikmin
Killer 7
Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance

Wii
Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn (only if you've played the GC one)
Okami
No More Heroes

Any of those help you out? I could keep going, if ya need me to.

 

[Omis]

Three words
No More Heroes.

 

[Firus]

@Overload

The Phoenix Wright trilogy!

This.

Also, if you haven't already gotten it and are a fan of Sonic, Sonic Rush is good to look into. It's actually a pretty good Sonic game in a world of mostly crappy ones these days.

 

[Overload]

Let's see, I don't think I'd like battle network from what I've seen. I have Okami. I have FE: POR. I have Chrono Trigger on ps1 although I'd prefer it on the DS, but I'd rather wait for the price to drop. I've been wanting to pick up Sonic Rush, Pikmin has interested me, although they are doing a wii-make, but I might prefer it on the GC. NMH seems good. I've heard good things about Pheonix Wright. I'm looking to get as many games as possible with this money, so I'd prefer games that aren't too much. I've been looking into Legend of Kage 2 for DS, ten bucks new. I've heard good things about it. Some people say it's mediocore, but it looks decent. Maybe it only has the depth of an NES game or something since it's the sequel of one, but that wouldn't bother me; the gameplay looks fun.

 

[Sensai]

@ Overload:

Jeah, forgot about the Wii Pikmin re-release. Might be worth waiting for it, although it won't be as cheap. NMH is very good. Both of these games will be amazingly cheap.

The Phoenix Wright trilogy would not be as cheap as the above, but they hold a lot of gameplay in them.

 

[knightzy]

the two tales games,80 hours of fun,end of story.

 

[Sensai]

OK, question for everyone, especially 360 owners: is Castle Crashers worth the money?

 

[Omis]

OK, question for everyone, especially 360 owners: is Castle Crashers worth the money?

Id say it is worth it. The main game took me 5 hours with my first character. Each playthrough earns you more characters to play with. Unfortunately, there are only like seven truly different playstyles. All the other characters are like skins. It is pretty darn good for mp. Id say get it.

What Xbox original download should I get everyone?

 

[SuperBowser]

Just wanted to thank whoever suggested Dokapon Kingdom.

We were meant to play 20 minutes (everyone has early starts tomorrow) and ended up playing past 1am. I've already changed one housemate's name to WATERFACE (injoke) and someone else got smacked in the leg for it .

This game is very funny and I can't believe it's not been mentioned more (perhaps 1 player isn't as fun...)!

 

[DtJ Jungle]

ok lulz

GC games anyone? single player. no one will play with me

RPG's of any kind...whatever.

 

[Overload]

I think I'm going to pick up a wii points card. I have to play mega man 9. I just wish the game was sold as a hard copy. . .

 

[ranmaru]

@ Junglefever6478
Custom Robo. Skies of Arcadia. I would play with you, just that I'm too far. Man, if there is a melee tournie thats near you that I could go to (and if I went), I would play you! :3

 

[SSJ5Goku8932]

Have you tried Tales of Symphonia, The First one not the Sequel.

 

[DtJ Jungle]

no i havent i heard its pretty good tho

sumo GET AT ME mayne...moar melee
