All kinds of. I got to play a bit of this at a game store when I was in Japan. It's as cool as I wanted it to be.

They should have left Sensible Soccer alone. Honestly.

Neither Jon Hare or Chris Chapman are working in this AFAIK. The game probably will have only its name and nothing else.

Sensible Soccer just CAN'T be brought to the new millenium. I think it's a blasphemy someone wants to make a "modern update" of this game.

But yeah, let's hope for the best.

Well it got a great review over at Eurogamer, so here's hoping. Jon Hare WAS involved though I'm sure? Sounds like the MD version of the original play-wise with the three button control.

Myself, I'm slowing down right now as there so much stuff I've yet to play. Lost Planet on 360 looks beautiful though. That machine is probably my next buy, I'll just be a little more selective and buy fewer games than I did on Xbox.

Summer Carnival 92' Recca (Famicom)

This game shall be mine (just the cart... no need to be extravigant)!

I went ahead and ordered myself an Ibara PCB.
Something I've been eyeing for quite some time, and I can write it off as a birthday present for myself.

I need to buy some puzzle games I can play any time. Essentials for PS-PS2?

Maybe also Disgaea 1 or 2 and Burnout 2 or another racing game.

Mr. Driller G, Landmaker and Money Idol Exchanger. The latter two are playable in Mame if you want to check them out.

Probably my favorite puzzler for PS2 is Bombastic (Devil's Dice on PS1).

I've played Disgaea and Burnout 2. Excellent choices.

I'm thinking about:

Necronomicon (pinball for Saturn)
Image-Fight and X-Multiply
Kirby Super Star
Gate of Thunder
and a few others

Money is still tight but I am planning to finance a purchase of an OutZone PCB.

It was the first PCB I owned, and I sold it before I appreciated the greatness of Toaplan, and I miss it a lot

Hopefully I can have funds within 2 months...

Someone already mentioned Landmaker (released as "Builder's Block" in the US)...I've been quite addicted to that lately, so I'll recommend it too, definitely give it a try in MAME. The PS1 version also has an extra Puzzle and Vs. Mode (with entirely different graphics): Arcade mode looks nearly arcade-perfect, but there are unfortunate amounts of load time between rounds, and scores are only saved for Puzzle mode. It's not expensive though.

There are also several Puyo Puyo games on PS1/2, if you're into that series.

well i've decided to offload a bunch of my ps1 games due to lack of storage, 60hz and will to play and i think i'm either going to pick up:

disgaea
an xbox
XII STAG
possibly a gbmicro for some seriously portable gaming.

not sure yet but i'm sure i'll find something to spend it on.

Pop 'n pop and Puyo Puyo Sun (you don't have a Saturn...right?) are great too. Also Magical Drop 3.

Ps2 pretty much fixes the loadtimes on PS Landmaker/Money Puzzle Exchanger, btw.

Just copped that CvsSNK 2, Guilty Gear X, Street Fighter Anniversary Collection, and a new copy of Guilty Gear X2 to replace the one I scratched up.

my next purchase is gonna be metal slug 6 after i seen the video in the MS6 thread

EOJ · Post by **EOJ** » Wed Jun 07, 2006 1:33 am

I've pre-ordered Metal Slug 6 and I'm thinking of picking up Galaxy Angel II (JP PS2) when it's released June 22nd, but maybe I'll pick that one up later (won't have much time to play it this summer anyway).

The Coop · Post by **The Coop** » Wed Jun 07, 2006 1:48 am

Raiden III- PS2
Capcom Classics Collection 2- XBox/PS2
Beggar Prince- Genesis

I'd like to get Spriggan if I can find it for a decent price.

BeauZilla 002 · Post by **BeauZilla 002** » Fri Jun 09, 2006 12:21 am

DS Lite
Tetris DS
New Super Mario Bros DS
Mario Kart DS

Espgaluda PS2
Raiden III PS2 I have the Jap version but I'll buy the US one as long as they don't butcher the art.

Radirgy DC or PS2

Raiden DX PS

GateofThunderforceIII · Fri Jun 09, 2006 2:25 am

Beauzilla, please, PLEASE take Radilgy PS2 off your list. Get the DC version. Get the PS2 version only if you decide that you want to play the game in full slow motion mode (even when there are no enemies on screen).

As for my future purchases...Street Fighter Alpha Collection, even though I already own the godly import version (still godly even with the Saturn and even PS1 versions looking better as far as resolution goes). I've been on a 2-D fighter kick lately...Zero Fighters Generation, CvsSNK2, Vampire Collection, Neo Geo Battle Colliseum. I need to unseal PS2 "Matrimelee."

Thanx for the heads up GOTIII.Seems like everyone is hating on the PS2 version.I'll definetly go for the DC version.Still no one bought the Gamecube version?My little Cube needs some love.

This is pretty crazy. Well worth the $10. I like the rule changes to the endless* mode. I miss the single fixed puzzles, though, as maddening as they were. Quest is interesting but not the same.

*scratch that, not endless, but my mind starts to melt and eyes bug out after 25 minutes
