All I said was that Saga Frontier II is an amazing-looking game. I mentioned that I hadn't played much of it. If you're going to look at this:

 

...and tell me that's not gorgeous, then I have a problem with your taste in graphics.


Sorry if I came off too abrasive. I didn't see the "II" in your post. I thought you were talking about the original (that game took away my innocence too soon!). Anyhoo, I think part 2 averaged a 7/10 when it came out. It was far from a bad game. Part 1 was 8 HORRIBLE games on one disc. It's worth buying.......if you hate yourself.

And Garcian is right- the Fear Effect games are still awesome! That anime/cell shades style holds up very well.



@Grey Acumen
Picked it up cause it was cheap and i dont have a ps2 and i like to collect systems so i decided to just go for it.

@sieanr
That looks cool. A link to the past is in my top 5 games.. ill try to find that game



The PS1 is not a PSX, nor is it a PS.

This is a PSX:

You really don't know what you're talking about.

When it launched the PS1 was frequently called the PSX. Maybe you've noticed all the websites and articles that refer to the original Playstation by the abbreviation of PSX. Or not...

I bought a psone a few years back, and for only one game, castlvania symphony of the night, which in my opinion is still the best castlevania game, and have yet to buy any other game for that system(I got tired of waiting for them to release the game on another platform(come on.. make a DS version of sotn..)

Alundra

Its quite similar to A Legend of Zelda, a link to the past gameplay wise. Story wise its excellent, and the graphics are like a beefed up SNES game.

 Alundra is an excellent game but sieanr missed out one important thing: This game WILL make you shit and piss blood, it is ridiculously hard.

Did ps1 have any good platformers?

the crash bandicoot games were very good =), the best platformers for the psx for sure


Crash Bandicoot 3 Warped .... best platformer of all times IMO . No 3D platformer ever stored so much fun than this game , a must have for anyone :D

The game is now available on XBLA, and PS3, and PSP (Dracula X Chronicles).  I would say that a DS version is almost completely unlikely...



Hates Nomura.
