The Arcade Random Thoughts Thread

[Leftwich]

I'm falling in love with my PS3 again.

 

[Rylo]

Why?

Why?

There is a bunch of cool shit on it. I watched Dexter from the internet browser last night.

I need help remembering the title of a Playstation 1 or 2 game (can't remember, just know it's fairly old).

I'll describe it.

-It's a RPG.
-You collect special Items, then you place them on a map (You choose where) and the item turns into a town/city/area.
- There is a area in the game where you throw different fruit into a tree's mouth and you come back later to see more growing on some of it's branches.
- (I think) it has some gods in it like Odin, etc... I think you play music for them or something...
- (I think) you can have a pet or breed pets.


Anyone have a clue, I'm dieing to remember the title of this game so I can try to find a copy of it.

Dark Cloud

OR

Dark Cloud 2

 

[Sharkweather]

Of course Jay knew.

Of course Jay knew.

I have half the backlog of games that Twigg owns (different titles and systems but the spirit's the same) and an extensive knowledge of titles since 2000.

No denying I'm a nerd.

I have to go to work now....

Id rather be playing Bayonetta

 

[Buzzman]

is Dark Cloud any good, I almost picked it up for $5.

Is that the Zelda type game for PS2? If so I remember hearing that it is good.

 

[SHOGUN]

Dude, what fucking game are you playing? APF?!?

If so, I've been meaning to pop that game back in to see if it's as good as I remember.

Or is it Tecmo Bowl?

Yup. Good ol' APF 2K8.

 

[Twigg4075]

Yup. Good ol' APF 2K8.

Nice!

Probably going to pick up MAG when it comes out... odd considering that I bought MW2 and haven't played it much since I got it.

Still, I sort of use squad tactics on UC2 whenever I'm not dicking around online while intoxicated.

MAG is definitely a lot more fun than MW2 IMO if you have a team that communicates. I loved the beta, but that's mainly because I was a beast at the game.

I take it that you'll be buying the full version then?

I'm happy to rep [FOOT] on UC2 but if there are others who'll buy MAG here then I'll wear the same colors on that too.

More than likely I'll get it Tuesday.

I think I'm going to like BF:BC2 a lot more than MAG.

BF still has a ton of strategy, unlike MW2, and it seems like a much more polished game. Plus, bringing down buildings is fucking tits.

 

[DomePatrol]

Picked up Castlevania: SotN this game fucking rocks.

 

[Bmore]

Dark Cloud

OR

Dark Cloud 2

Nope, guess again.

 

[Bmore]

I found it, with a little more time to spend.

Probably one of my favorite RPG's of all time. Anyone familiar with it?

Did you play the last beta? The game seems pretty well polished to me. Sure, the graphics aren't great by any means, but some people made them sound like they were the worst ever created.

Oh and Jay, you better pick SVER. In the beta, I think I lost maybe 10 times out of 70 matches with SVER. Only team that seemingly works together.
