Why not see for yourself? Scroll down to "Gameplay" section:I hope that the battle system is good.
Rumors on the internet say that Squeenix is trying to implement some new twist on the ATB system
Then get the 360 version (assuming you have a 360 already and, if not, why not? It's the only place to play Portal and Braid, the two best games to come out this generation..[okay, Portal is on PC but that doesn't count]).
I pretty much beat the crap out of that game though. The newest consoles I own are a PSP and a DS. And I just bought Mega Man Anniversary Collection for the GameCube (I'm a huge Mega Man fan). Another old PS2 game I like to play is Gundam: Federation vs. Zeon. It was only $5 at the game store, which is one of the best parts about playing old games. I also bought MMBN3 White for $5. Anyway, as much as I'd love to play Killzone 2, or MGS4 (especially MGS4), I can live with the old staples for a looong time. I've beaten LttP a bunch of times, SMW, Super Metroid, etc. That's something a lot of new games seem to lack, replay value. I mean, I played Super Mario Galaxy, beat in two days (not fully beaten, but it never gave me the desire to fully beat it). It wasnt' even my game, it was my friends and I played it at his house. Afterwards neither of us picked it up again. But it was supposed to be so great, and I thought it was highly overrated. Super Mario 64 was better. I like pretty cinematics as much as the next guy, but I want to want to play a game.
I liked all the area names for 'The World that never was' in KH II.
I think it was that coupled with the fact that castle was cool, and you got 'final form' drive mode- which, in itself is probably why I still play the game.They ARE good... They are just short of the gold standard set by the PS1 FF games, I'd say :tongue:
You see, the KH series does have a lack of the Tifa/Cloud Nibelheim starry night scenes. So while the story is great, it lacks a little magic maybe because it was designed for younger audiences
If you have a PS2, try to find some copies of the series and give a shot at them :smile:
Most of them are either mystical-sounding or something rather depressing, eh?
Look for a playable demo between Christmas-time and late-Spring; or if you're really impatient, import the Japanese one now. :biggrin1:
I know what you were talking about. It just strikes me as odd that your three favorite games all happened to fall into one particular development cycle on one particular console; it seems rather...limited.Lmao - a pretty shit list?!! :tongue:
I was talking about FF7 as best game ever - the other two are just my favourites. Don't play them anymore, but for the time, they were great
Mm, not relevant but it ranges from Tetris to Street Fighter II to Portal and a lot of things inbetween (my fav. FF has already been mentioned [FFT]). The trouble with "favorites lists" is that 'favorites' are so subject to whim and nostalgia, plus you're apt to just forget about a lot of games. (That doesn't stop me from trying often, tho!)
I wasn't ragging on the dude for liking older games, just that his favorites were all released around the same time and on one platform -- a little limited in scope, you know? But hey: Mario 64, Mario Kart 64 and GoldenEye 64 were all released within a year (Sep 96 - Aug 97, respectively) and on one platform, and I rank those as three of the greatest games of all time, so it's definitely not unheard of.
FFX was bad. FFXII was ...less-bad. The worst thing about X was that it was *unskippable* . . ..oh god, was that painful. . .
