I'm a He/Him video game nerd who is either a young Gen Xer or a elder Millennial depending on where the line is.
Final Fantasy IX.

Maybe Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy VI or Earthbound if we're going back to the SNES days.

With the Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters and Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles it's easy for gamers to play the old classics if they missed out on them.

Final Fantasy X-2 is my favorite PS2 Final Fantasy game.

I love the combat in that game and the haters can say what they want about "Dressphere" but it was one of the best class system Final Fantasy ever used.

Congratulations!

Nice.

Tales of Xillia is my tales of game and it's great that it's out of PS3 jail. My preorder for the physical copy is still at the store as I can't go pick it up till Monday.

That's my major complaint about the Nintendo Online Switch shop.

On the old WiiU store I could get classic NES, SNES, N64 and DS games to buy and own digitally. (The 3DS shop was also great) I'd much rather pay for the few games I like rather than rent all of the games at verying monthly rates.

The kind of brain dead hateful theatrics that are the only thing Trump and his goons are good at.

Even in the 1890's Americans knew that the army was trying to cover up a brutal massacre by handing out medals. I imagine those medals will be revoked again once this administration is gone.

Until then I wish you luck pulling Reverse 1999's 5 Star out and proud lesbian icon Tennant.

I've come back around on the first game as time has passed. With Final Fantasy going more action I've come to reevaluated the Paradigm combat system. (It feels very auto battle but it's still turn based)

FFXIII is undeniablly the best looking game from the PS3 era of video games.

Arcana is one of the main antagonist so dispite her amazing voice acting and inculcate drip I don't think she'll be playable anytime soon.

Urd is not playable for more complicated for story reasons.

The RE:1999 fandom does like to speculate on which NPC gets upgraded to playable next so have hope.

Pre-rendered backgrounds have become a lost art in video games.

Summion Night Swordcraft Story 2.

The first game is also good but the sequel really builds on everything and makes for a much richer experience. Better story and characters in my opinion as well.

The Synthesis shops that crafted higher rarity Items and unique equipment was ahead of it's time.

I don't make playlists for my music but I have the whole Suikoden 2, Final Fantasy VII, VIII and IX soundtracks on CD.

Good to see there are still fans of the SaGa and .hack games out here.

The PlayStation 2 is still my favorite console of all time.

I think the whole of the Sixth generation of console gaming was the most impactful. PS2, GameCube and Xbox were huge leaps forward from the generation that came before and still so many great and iconic games on those systems.

With all the Indy beat up games you'd think Capcom would throw some money at the Final FightIP.

I will say they been doing some good stuff with collections like the Mega Man, Mega Man Zero, Mega Man Battle Network, Capcom Fighting and Capcom Marvel collections.
July 14, 2025 at 4:55 PM
You'd think they could find the time in between milking their cash cows Street Fighter, Resident Evil and Monster Hunter to remember that they own Mega Man and Breath of Fire.
July 14, 2025 at 4:38 PM
I'm still waiting on/bullying Capcom to drop a Breath of Fire HD collection with games 1 - 4.

Anytime I go back and play the first Kingdom Hearts game I'm always struck but just how charming and fun it all is. From the characters, different worlds and enemies it all just make this strange mix of Final Fantasy and Disney somehow work.

People are already giving you a lot of the great PS3 games like Infamous, Killzone, God of War and the PS3 Ratchet and Clank games which are all good picks.

My top two games still lock in PS3 jail is Disgaea D2 and 3D Dot Game Heroes.
