The Arcade Random Thoughts Thread

Swarles in Charge,

I love a good JRPG! I got about halfway through it and was loving it (got distracted by NBA 2k13 unfortunately). But it's not even one of my favorites. Need you to get hooked so you can give me reviews of all the others. Let the games begin.

Shadowrun, about 2 hours in, is sooooo good. I can tell that the story itself isn't going to be great, but what I'm more excited about is the engine with the community scenarios. Should be some great shit.

I did see that the other day. At some point I'll have to either pick up Persona 3 FES for my PS2 or download Persona 3 Portable to my Vita.

Persona 3: FES has the full game plus Post-Game content as well.

You can play either from the start but the Post-Game stuff's basically a high-level grind with some extra info about the ending of the vanilla game.

Dunno if it's also available for Vita but either version's worth the DL.

It's not really a comparison, P3P is the better game. It ditches most of the 3D school interactions, but not at the detraction of the game, and P3FES still has the boneheaded "can't control anyone but your character in battle" shit. P3P basically takes the design upgrades from 4, puts them into 3, and takes out some of the polygons. Much better choice, IMO.

Sweet diagnosis, bro.

Those are two that interest me, as well as FF7 and FF9 (on top of FFX and Kingdom Hearts, which I already have).

FF9 is far and away my favorite FF game.

You haven't delved into Kingdom Hearts at all right? I would strongly recommend keeping it on the back-burner until KH 1.5 drops next month.

For the love of all things sacred, can you guys create a JRPG circle jerk thread so I can stop reading this nonsense?

I'm being dead serious. Not even trying to be a dick. Make a JRPG appreciation thread or something.

Let's all bitch about something meaningless instead of talking about shit we like!

I never said not to talk about shit you like dickhead. But there seems to be a resurgence in JRPG talk so why not make a thread dedicated to it?

By all means, talk about them until Sora actually looks like a woman. Or is he a woman? I can't tell. Either way, talk your little JRPG heart out.

Right, I'm the dickhead.

It's the random thoughts thread at a site where threads go to die. If people like talking about it in the random thoughts thread, why bitch? Oh wait.

Yeah, it's the random thoughts thread that has turned into the JRPG thread the past several pages. Is it that difficult to make a thread about a genre games, especially since some of the ones you guys are mentioning are ten or more years old.

I'll do it for you.

If we go by that, we should just have 20 threads and break them down by genre that way we neever ever have to accidently waste 2 seconds reading a post we dont want to read

Jesus, what? Does this really bother you this much? Do you not understand why I think you're bipolar, based on shit like this?

Not really. I haven't seen seventy RTS, fighting, adventure, etc posts lately. With Seth's top games thread, combined with Swarley recently unearthing the hidden gems that are JRPGS, there has been an overwhelming amount of posts about them. So why not keep them all in one place?

How am I the only one that sees that it makes perfect sense?
