some people take what people say in forums or on the internet way too seriously, sad but true much like peopl that take games too seriously.

Yeah sad but true, so moving along in the spirit of wisdom.

Secret of Mana! another great game.

@Yukon

I am agreeing honestly with you, you have a similar view of that genre as me it would seem.

GRANDIA!

Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast, an amazing game and my favourite game of all time really. I find it very under rated, and while I love Dark Souls I got way more enjoyment out of JK2JO.

CONTRA! so much better than mario, take that fanboys!

Dark souls isn't perfect but pretty close.

Games that kept coming back for more (most are trully dark horses):
Severance blade of darkness (no other game has the same feeling when cutting somebody down)
Heroes of might and magic 3 (perfect art, great music, many factions, still haven't finished all campaigns)
Magic the gathering manalink (soooo many hours building decks...)
Screamer 4x4 (best driving feel in a 4x4 game by far, excelent force feedback)

FFX will always have a special place in my heart because in my opinion it had the best mature male character in any game, EVER. Well, the ones I've played anyway. I'm talking about Auron and I played the game for him, couldn't care less about the other characters and don't get me started on the tedious Tidus.

I find it strange that Square-Enix persist with the same old formula when creating characters for Final Fantasy. You know what I mean, teenage ladyboys with bad hair and their female counterparts aren't much better. I assume that they're playing to their home grown cosplay crowd which I know is huge in Japan. You'd think they'd realise that the Final Fantasy fanbase has grown older along with the games and at least give us one or two mature characters like Auron to play with. FF games are long, very long (bit like this post, sorry) and there should be at least one character you can empathise with if you are going to commit chunks of your life to playing it.

I have that as one of my big issues with FF, I understand gameplay/story trumps all in my book, but I just can't take a story seriously with characters who look like that. Maybe if they made a big fat hairy guy who drank and farted as the main character, I could get back into final fantasy. But I don't want to play a game where I have to spend half of it guessing the genders of characters haha.

Final Fantasy Eighteen: Let's go Wrestle.

Where's Serious, pointing out the necrobump?

Personally I don't care about them, I think it's necessary to bring up older threads again!

(and it's way better than starting duplicate threads btw)

Anyway, CONTINUE

Demon's Souls - Lets just say i have over 800 hours on multiple characters on there. Facepalm

God yes! I was beginning to think I was all alone. Good taste bla, what town do you like to play as?

@SlakeMoth, I personally found auron to be too stereotypical... there has kind of been that hushy badass character in every game. If I had to choose a character I liked from the game... probably Lulu or Kimarhi, because they hardly talked and I like halberd/spear haha.

I played HoMaM3 3DO ftw!

Hey hey! homm3 fans!
I play with all towns really, except conflux (they dropped the ball artwork-wise in my opinion) and fortress because I can't really make it work all that well.
Favourites are probably to be necro and dungeon. Tower is nice as well.

MMH, I like me some fortress! get those hydra's out there asap and they are a scary troup to face, the problem is keeping them strong midgame and learning how to use all their status effects to benefit you. Their weakest point is sieging, they are pretty horrible at getting past castle walls haha.

Second favourite is tower, then dungeon, then stronghold. But I generally play as all of them. The ingame art is really amazing, some of my favorite stuff there and its still a good game to look at years later.

And then there was a swarm of Heroes 3 geeks, haha.

For me the best of fortress is decimating level 7 stacks with mighty gorgons



Trying to stay on topic:

Elastomania!!

KOTOR 1 and 2, *** A man.
Such great games, I've beaten both of them over a hundred times.

I am having deja vu, didn't you already post this? Haha. It must have been in another thread, or I am going crazy.

@tokid, I had so many people telling me to play RDR on ps3, I refused to for the longest time because I have a deep hatred for cowboy movies and I suck at GTA like games. OH MY GOD, it was one of the best sandbox games I have played if not the best. They did such a good job with it, and it ended so-- just GAWH, so fun. I'mma go hunt some bears with my knife now, excuse me.

@bla, Gorgons were always some of my last units standing when I did something stupid, I always have a set of gorgons, and 2 stacks of upgraded Dragonflies, I love those little guys. But early game hydra can almost tank any starting army alone, and he isn't too hard to get by week 1.

Both of their stories do reach an end, you'll just have to play TOR from both factions view, and read the Revan book. But I'll just say, you'll be incredibly disappointed.

Yes, it keeps me comin back every time i push the ps3 power on.

But lets not forget Nintendo. All Mario related games, especially Mario Kart, keeps my brain cells alive. I will never forget Turok 1, and 2, either. And Nethack, on PC, with that i had sooo maaany swearing and nooooo! moments. But I finished that.

Gotta still say, that Nintendo is pioneer of consoles.
