A lot of PS1 lately. Wipeout is still amazing as is 2097. I love the difficulty of the first game and the music is so good.

Been playing Pier Solar ever since Christmas Day and I'm absolutely loving it.
Ordered the reprint early last year and gave it to the missus to get me for Chrimbo. 'Twas the first time I got a real 'new' Megadrive game for Christmas in about twenty years, and I tell you I felt a wave of nostalgia creeping in as I unwrapped it. Even had that new Megadrive game smell. Oh, the memories.
Anyroad, been really impressed by the game so far. Production values are amazing considering its origins, and I reckon it could easily have passed for a flagship Sega or Square RPG back in the day. I would even go so far as to say it is the best attempt at a JRPG by Western developers I've witnessed on any system.
Yeah, so the game is great, it's addictive and you all should own it!

Beat The Secret of Monkey Island and started on Monkey Island 2. I'm playing the recent re-releases but found myself going back to classic mode. I love the commentary that's included with MI2, makes me wish they'd worked it into the first one.
Currently on Phatt Island and oh lord at the local Governor there lol.

I sometimes wonder what it would it would have been like if the snes was still going today and there had never been any new consoles.

It's certainly up there isn't it? I think a lot of the games from that last part of the snes' life were pretty amazing looking. romancing saga 3, star ocean, tenchi sozo/terranigma, bahamut lagoon and rudra no hiho are all brilliant looking games. My personal favourite looking snes game ever has to be yoshi's island though. nothing really beats that for art direction.

I've been enjoying it so much that I picked up a copy of the second Fatal Fury battle archive on PS2, so I could finally play Real Bout 2.

Saturn version has a few extras that aren't present in the battle archive as it's a neo geo port, it also doesn't include the PS1 version of RBSDM which I'd never heard of till yesterday, got to love hardcore gaming:
I highly recommend the battle archive ports however.Last edited by S3M; 12-01-2012, 13:04.
