  5. House of the Dead. I’ve been meaning to go back to the PS3 game to play it with a PS Move for a while now, and I want the PSN HOTD releases specifically to try 'em out with the Move.

  1. Shining series up until Camelot left.
  2. Sonic
  3. Panzer Dragoon/Shinobi

They have a lot of good titles, but I wanted to pick franchises with multiple titles.

I’d kill for a PSN 20$ downloadable Shinobi title in the vein of the 2D games, or better yet a 3D action game that is like the PS2 title but on crack.

Shoutouts to Virtua Cop.

He’s rocking a Ryzen 1600 AF. It’s pretty much a 2600 without having that name and being less than $100. The perfect CPU for a budget build.

I would have put Vanquish in my 3rd slot instead but I’m not sure it really counts since it seems Sega is fine with Platinum releasing their stuff wherever

Golden Ax, Streets of Rage and Vector Man. I don’t know what order I’d put them in tho.

Huge honorable mentions are Phantasy Star and Shining Force

I used to play this in a 2nd world internet cafe in the 90’s when I’d go on vacation with the famiry, haha.

Mmm that’ll probably be the first thing to bottleneck in a year or two once cross-gen games end.

Ahh I kinda forgot the platinum caveat. I’d just move things up and put in altered beast for Bayonetta lol.

  1. House Of The Dead. I fucking LOVE a good rail shooter!

  2. Lumines.

  3. Shinobi (Shadow Dancer was one of my favorite genesis games)

Gonna give an honorable mention to Bayonetta since Sega is still involved lol

Ninja edit: Lumines isn’t Sega so I pick Streets Of Rage for my number 2

I’m not quite there yet I’m pretty sure I’m getting close to the ending of the shinra building. Story has been throwing curveballs and I don’t know WTF is going to happen next. I’m pretty sure Rufus Jr is up next but I da know lol.

That isn’t even the start of the curveballs, shit gets mad trippy lol

I was getting ready to head to bed after Barret gets stabbed by Sephiroth and then the game was like ‘Here’s a sudden Jenova boss fight! Have fun!’. Was not ready for that at all took some time to whittle it down.

So I just beat the game, I could definitely see how that would piss fans off of the original FF7. LOL

I liked it tho. My other theory is true too,

Summary

Alternative Timelines and time travel. The party killing that giant Whisper just at the moment Zack is supposed to die will significantly alter future events

This could end up being a disaster if done poorly. I don’t trust that Nomura guy left unfiltered but so far so good tho

Summary

Time travel isn’t confirmed at all. It’s definitely going to be an alternate timeline but not really anything saying it has to be time travel yet

  1. Sonic
  2. Daytona
