cloudphobia, thats a good one. Although it bothers me that the only cutscenes in the game are after the first couple levels.

Hi, i bought the Tales of Alltynex compilation for PC yesterday, its a fantastic series of 3 games, my favourite being Kamui. Rice Digital has it for £13.

I also like Jamestown and Satazius, Ether Vapour is quite good too.

For the PS3 i believe they are going to be bringing out Ketsui, i would buy that when you can. I also like Prehistoric Isle, although this has been emulated on PC.

The only ones I've played on PC are Jamestown and Hitogata Happa. I loved Jamestown, the pixel art is gorgeous and is not too difficult (which at that time was great with me). Hitogata Happa offers a great challenge but it's too damn rough on the edges. For example, hitting retry on the pause menu doesn't restart the level but your entire progress up to that point, which is the main reason why I never finished the game.
