Dragonmaster_Alex Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 Offtopic once again. I think Lunar's pretty awesome, but I'm blown away by Hunters.No really, I'm exceptionally impressed by it. No, I don't care if it's old news. Lunar IS awesome. Lunar Dragon Song is fucking awful, though. Biggest disappointment of all time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigfoot Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 I don't think I've seen anyone talk about it, but anyone getting Magical Starsign? It looks pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitsuta Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 I don't think I've seen anyone talk about it, but anyone getting Magical Starsign? It looks pretty good. I've totally mentioned it once. I dunno... after Skies of Arcadia, I don't really see how I can play an RPG that isn't a disappointment in comparison. After all, how can you top Air Pirates? The answer is, you can't. You just can't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The answer is, you can't. You just can't. You win. (Though if you liked Skies of Arcadia, you should like Dragon Quest VIII. They share a lot of similarities, and in some cases, DQ8 is better.)

Yoshi3gg Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 Has anyone played Contact yet? If so, how is it? Edit: Also, I second UE's recommendation of Dragon Quest VIII. Great game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitsuta Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 You win. (Though if you liked Skies of Arcadia, you should like Dragon Quest VIII. They share a lot of similarities, and in some cases, DQ8 is better.) Whoot! Do I get a prize? 8D I have heard about that a lot. But art direction from Mr. Toriyama makes me cry. DBZ type art was the only bad thing about Chrono Trigger. But looking at the screenshots again, it might be bearable. Hmmmmm... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KakTheInfected Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 Contact is a dull game that somehow keeps my interest. Fighting in it is sort of like playing a Warrior/Rogue in World of Warcraft, where you just auto-attack and are able to use skills every so often.

Well, if you like the aspect of exploration of SoA, DQ8 has it in spades. If you like an enormous overworld with vastly different locales, DQ8 has that as well. And if you like great characters, heart, and different transportation methods, DQ8 will satisfy. Anything from SoA that I forgot that you might wanna know?

Bahamut Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 SoA had some tedious moments to it though. I enjoyed Tales of Symphonia far more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocobo150 Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 I don't think I've seen anyone talk about it, but anyone getting Magical Starsign? It looks pretty good. Its ok, but the gameplay is a bit slow. I would prefer Children of Mana and/or Contact. I played all three for about an hour each and Magical Starsign is the last pick. Not that its bad or anything, but that the other two feels a bit better than it and that the other two has multiplayer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes, Tales of Symphonia is another favorite of mine, but I didn't like the main character as much. He was a wuss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again, it was all about Kratos, Sheena, and Genis to begin with. Those three kicked ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kratos FTW though. [omg highlight for spoiler] The best part was, though, that my sister and I actually guessed that Kratos was Lloyd's father the moment we saw him. We were just joking around and I figured we were wrong, so I was pleasantly surprised when we were proven right near the end of the game!

KakTheInfected Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 I got so bored of Children of Mana so I doubt I'll play the English version. The boss fights were fun, but 90% of the game is button mashing to kill enemies that respawn almost continuously on harder levels. Got an Advance Wars DS question...is there any reason to use Adder over Koal? Both are similiar, charge their powers at the same rate, but Koal has a firing bonus on roads...

DJ Tempora Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 I'm addicted. Help. Really? Played it at E3 and found it to be pretty mediocre. You have the weirdest taste in games, man- that's why I like you. Oh, except SoA. You know how much I dig that one. Contact is a dull game that somehow keeps my interest. Seconded.

BlueMage Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 Offtopic once again. I think Lunar's pretty awesome, but I'm blown away by Hunters.No really, I'm exceptionally impressed by it. No, I don't care if it's old news. Lunar IS awesome. Lunar Dragon Song is fucking awful, though. Biggest disappointment of all time. I'm enjoying it though. Plus, I got it cheap. I get all my games cheap. Because I'm a tightfisted bastard, who only buys when it's on special and pre-owned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both are similiar, charge their powers at the same rate, but Koal has a firing bonus on roads... Adder's CO meter is xxXXX, while Koal's is xxxXX. Doesn't look like it means anything, but it basically boils down to Adder getting to his CO Power faster than Koal, as well as being able to double Sidesliping. Koal's firing bonus on roads is crap. Who's going to leave a unit on the road, when it doesn't give any defense bonuses? It's pretty much saying "HAY GUYS COME KILL ME NOW." That, and most maps won't have roads in places that it'd actually be practical to fire from. So...go with Adder. He looks cooler, anyway.

KakTheInfected Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Another Animal Crossing question...is it normal for the past few days there have been no fossils or even cracks in the ground to dig up? Everyone else I know who plays is having the same problem, but I'm wondering why it's happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
