KofTSF is taking a trip back in time since Square Enix would never make a new Ogre Battle game. I am loving it since I created new tactics for my squad to follow. I am not the usual real time strategist, but I must admit, Battle does quite a number on my outlook towards the genre. I am a bit ahead with the story since I ventured into Tactics Ogre for GBA. Also awesome. The dialogue is second only to FE 7.
Does it get better after battle 3? and how do you make your own units from scratch?
Any new enemies? Did you unlock NG arcade. I am playing the game on normal right now (almost done with it.)
Jester, there is going to be a sequel to deception, I didn’t know this. I would get it, but I dine getting games for now. I’m saving up for xbox 260. The DOA4 vid on NGB is hot!
Yeah what is up with that!?!? I have like 95% completion and I would say that I have less that half of the Gallery Pics. Strange indeed. Anyway I had an easier time with Liu Kang then I did with Kung Lao, especially on the last Boss fight.
Right now Im’ playing through with Scorpion, i’m having more fun plauing through with him then I did with either of the Monks. I just wish they gave him and Sub-Zero there own stroy mode. :sad:
Oh well It’s still a lot of fun.
Edit - Hunter, I havent seen any new enemies since I havent beenn able to beat the first Chapter. 
but then again I havent really played Master Nija for too long since I just unlocked it like about 30 minutes ago. As far as the NG Arcade game yeah I unlocked it and it is a lot of fun. Brings back memories. Anyways acording to Gamefaqs here are the two ways you can unlock it.
Complete the game on Ninja Dog or Normal difficulty with the “Ninja Gaiden Arcade” item, or complete the game on Hard.
There’s too many great games out all at once. The Namco anniversary pack…apparently Ninja Gaiden Black is out already(?!), there’s MK Shaolin Monks, ULTIMATE SPIDERMAN just came out yesterday, Hulk is out, Xmen Legends 2 is out…and so on and so on. Again, I ask…to the people who think gaming just isn’t what it used to be…or not as great as the “old days”…what the fuck are you talking about? This era of gaming is The Shit?, plain and simple. It isn’t even debatable. Pokey pokeyyy in the booty holey…
edit—heh, forgot what I orignally posted for…I saw a demo of the Zatch Bell GC game today…and it looked interesting! I was completely surprised by this…I thought surely since the target audience for the show appears to be 9 year olds…that it would be some stupid ass turn-based garbage card-battle crap. It’s actually a FIGHTING GAME! I can’t believe it…I may have to pick that up…it looked fun.
I’m playing Panzer Dragoon: Orta right now. I don’t think I’ve really been into a rail shooter since Star Fox. Its fun though.
I hear ya, Million. I’m as old-school as they come but I still love all these new generation games we’re getting. Honestly, you’d have to be some kind of moron or lack good taste not to enjoy all these stellar titles that developers/publishers are serving up.
And yes, there are too many good games coming out and now that the fall season is officially in effect, the wave of awesome titles is only going to get even larger.
I just picked up the PS2 version of Ultimate Spider-Man. The GameStop I went into was out of GC versions. Or at least I didn’t see any. Also picked up my reserve copy of We Love Katarami. Haven’t played either of them yet. Actually, I haven’t even fished Katamari Damacy. Still stuck on Make a Star 7.
Got the DS, so I’m playing Ridge Racer DS. Cool enough…
65% of support talk on Fire Emblem 7. There’s a female swordmaster I still need to uncover, but it’s tough to do.
They should have release We <3 Katamari on DS. Playing with a stylus would have been dope 
I’m currently playing Zelda: link to the past for S.nintendo. Props for being a fun game since the first time i touched it in 1994.
Some things i don’t understand is what do runes do?
I can, apparently, dye weapons too?
Do I lose anything if i die during a mission?
Is there a way to make the Storage bigger? becuase it seems pretty small compared to other games…
Where do i get the F8 bag?
Is it worth spending 500g to expand the F7 bag by 5 slots using the scroll of holding bought from the merchant @ the Northern Wall?
runes- you can ad them to armor to give you extra whatever they say they will give. for example if its a rune that ads +1 to fire skills if you attach it to your gloves it will give you +1 to fire skills.
you dont lose anything if you die during the mission you just have to restart.
you can buy bags and expand them, and you can also buy a storage “chest” from a storage person but thats about it.
i dont know what an F8 bag is…
it depends how much money you have, when you get farther into the game its worth spending 500g to expand…

Just finished tales of symphonia, this game is a masterpiece. The rpgs released during this generation have been subpar overall, but tales of symphonia bucks that trend. What surprising is that this game was developed by namco, a company that has only been making solid fighters while the rest of their offerings in other genres have been crap. This game was worth fifty dollars, but at the the twenty dollar price point it has now it’s a steal.
uh oh…it appears my jinx effect might’ve struck again…I’m hearing lots of disappointing commentary about Ultimate Spidey. Apparently they “dumbed down” the swinging?! Why on earth would the developers change the one PERFECT thing from Spidey 2?! Anytime anyone ever said something about SM2…whether it was good or bad, they eveutually would say “…but swinging around sure is fun!”, or something to that effect.
I know the Gfaqs members tend to go a little overboard with the hate, but it seems like 90% of the people there are complaining about the new and slightly altered (in a bad way, apparently) swinging mechanics. There is also no more charged jump, though I hear Spidey still gets the same height as the max charged jump from SM2. I’ll still get the game…with the comic style visuals, and the option to play Venom…it can’t possibly be as bad as some of them are making it out to be.
I’ll be back on Live for Unreal Champ2 sometime this weekend…mainly to see if the game is completely deserted/dead now. I’ve already given up all hope for another downloadable content release. We will NEVER get to play Ra, Nephtys, Corrosion and the others…never. :sad:
well…since the UC2 community is mostly whiny bitches that complain about everything…and the devs seem to not give a crap anymore…AND I don’t really play Halo 2 online anymore…I might as well cancel my gamertag. Well, this would give me a chance to change over to a cooler username if I ever come back. I only chose that Perfect Hatred name as a last resort, pretty much…ALL my other ideas were taken already…which is odd, since I’m one of the most creative people in all existence. :wow:
I got Raiden III yesterday in the mail. What a beautiful game. Hard too, heh. But still fun. I don’t think that it beats Gradius V, but it’s certainly a good game. If it ever comes stateside, check it out.
I feel you on that on. This is indeed a good age for gaming. I’m old school too, and I know where you are coming from. Lots of great games coming from every angle. XMLegends 2, I hope to have enough to trade in for that tomorrow.
I guess I can search(and I will after this post probably) but is there really a difference between Ninja Gaiden w/ Hurrican Packs and Ninja Gaiden Black?
ANYBODY IN THE AZ. AREA WHO KNOWS HOW TO DO IT WITHOUT FUCKING UP, WANNA MOD A PS2? Pretty Please??
Ultimate Spider-Man: I thought I’d give some impressions on the game. Finally opened it up and played at some 4:30 in the AM. First off, the web-slinging. Yes, it is different from the amazingly fluid system found in last year’s Spidey 2. But does it suck? Heck no. In fact, it can take some getting used to at first but it is fun to swing around town even though the Ultimate NY isn’t as big as the one found in Spidey 2.
The visuals. Oh man. Pics on the net do not do this game justice. It looks freaking amazing. If you’ve read the Ultimate Spider-Man comic books, then you’ll LOVE how this game looks. Mark Bagley lent his tallents well to this game and it shows. You’d think Ultimate Spidey lept right out of the book and into your TV screen.
The dialogue and voices. Brian Michael Bendis wrote every word of the script in this game and picked out the voice actors. Spidey sounds like he’s going through puberty (and he should since he’s 15 in this game) but the voice actor does a great job of bringing the character to life. On top of that, Spidey’s dialogue is hilarious. I’ve laughed out loud at every single joke he’s cracked while he was web-slinging or fighting bad guys.
Combat is a bit stripped down from Spidey 2 as well. Since Peter has only been Spidey for a short while in this game (heck, he’s only been Spidey for 9 months in the comics), he’s down to the bare essentials. That being said, it’s still a lot of fun to web up bad guys and jump out of the way from fire when the Spider-Sense goes off. I’ll post more on it later.
Awesome, what system do you have ultimate spidey for? I find it funny that the ds version came out before the others, and ive also heard good thing about it too.
I got Ultimate Spider-Man for the PS2. At the GameStop I went to I saw no GC versions left. Right now I’m playing as Venom!! Man playing as Venom is fun!! He jumps around like the Hulk and eats people!! You guys remember that annoying kid that always lots his balloon in Spidey 2? I got to eat that sucker!!
:tup: Right now I’m in the middle of a tough boss fight though. I won’t spoil anything but I’ll just say this game has great guest star material already. This game already blows any other Spidey game away in the story department.
Trying to beat MGS3 on Extreme. Without killing anyone. Without getting any alerts. x.x
