I've owned Tomb Raider Legend for over a year so i decided to give it a go today. It's the first Tomb Raider game i've played and i finished the first two levels and so far not bad. Pretty fun mix of platforming and puzzles.

Banjo-Kazoioe: Nuts & Bolts is pure awesome.
Plus, one of the best looking games I've ever played.
I just sold my copy of Panzer Dragoon Saga for $165 on Amazon. I had the low price by about $100, and according to the e-mail I from the buyer, I made a nerdy RPG player very happy.
I bought it for $40, so I think I did pretty well!
Now I can get that new audio interface I need...
How do those games go up in price? Rarity, out of print? Just seems strange since it's used.Quote:

Was gonna be Kingdom Hearts (so I could get some distance from P3 before playing P4), but then it did two very annoying things without letting me save after I couldn't surpass the second, and I was late for lunch, so I'm not going to come back to it for a little while.Quote:

Note: I'm guessing Spun would get BioShock on PS3, not the 360. I seem to remember some issues with the port.Quote:

I look into these Persona games. Hurm.

Well, I replayed that first hour of P4 yesterday and the subsequent 7 hours. So far, it is fantastic, in much the same way P3 was. These games are so strongly directed, that theme pervades every aspect of the story and gameplay (and in this game, story is very much gameplay). So P3's dominating theme (as repeated in the OP) of memento mori makes way for this game (which acts and plays almost exactly like P3 except for aesthetics and story) which seems more focused on self-actualization and achieving some kind of truth.
One thing that weirded me out was the voice of the crazy doomsayer from P3, Takaya, plays a TV announcer in this game. Weird.
Also, despite being on a last-gen system, the design elements of this game are top-notch. They're typically more ornate and intimate feeling than P3's environments and dungeons.
One thing I'm really iffy about is the ability to control your other 3 party members. In P3 you couldn't. And while it's still optional in P4, its presence (and temptation to use it) seems to detract from the feeling they were going for in P3.

And now I've found out that Valve took the demo off XBL the day the game released. That sucks.
So, I sucked it up and took another look at my Little Big Planet level. I added clearer instructions on what the player needs to do, and added a few more arrows to point the way, and now I'm getting better ratings in general.
Am I the only one on the forums playing this?
11 or 12 hours in, I'm happy to report that Persona 4 is fantastic and a worthy follow up to Persona 3. I'm not ready to call anything it changed in the game "better' so much as "different."
Anyone who has any tolerance for JRPGs at all needs to look into these games. They're the genre at its absolute best.
