I somehow managed to get the PC & Xbox Version of the game.

I wouldn't have picked it up for the PS2 if I had a PC or an XBox because its supposed to have some framerate issues and rather awkward controls but after playing the first on my Mac I decided I had to play the second as soon as possible, such a great game.

I play it on my 360, because its more confy and because I dont own a PC anymore.

If I need to use a PC I steal whatever PC is available in my house.

And I can't wait to get into Final Fantasy & Vagrant Story. I love RPGs and I need to get into the classic PSone ones.

Vagrant Story is exactly what it is. It's also a masterpiece. Furthermore, it's a master piece that's a big B to complete. I'd suggest you get a walkthrough for it. It'll seriously challenge your patience as it's a lot more hardcore than the FF games. If you like RPGs I'd suggest Grandia too.

Coincidently I've just ordered Final Fantasy VII for the PC. Also on the topic I'm currently playing Beyond Good & Evil which I got for about £5-7 new off of Amazon a while back. It's quite good in places but a little derivitive of Zelda that it's inspired by. Also got Far Cry again as I had the urge to play that. I can't wait for the next one on PC.

Dasilva · 01-30-2007, 03:52 PM

Farcry, the first one for PC was amazing. Every other 100 Farcry games really sucked for me.

Jelena · 01-31-2007, 03:26 AM

I thought I had bought Barrow Hill on e-Bay. Now it seems that I'm conned.

I'm trying to investigate through USPS what address my package was sent to since I got a shipment tracking number from the seller. We'll see what happens.

Panthera · 01-31-2007, 03:32 AM

aaw.. it's always horrible when things like that happen.. :S

I've been conned one time, just recently, for about 100kr. which I payed for some ds game boxes, and one time my package was lost in the mail..

on a happier subject, my package from Canada just arrived, with Phoenix Wright: Justice for all and Elite Beat Agents..

Kolzig · 01-31-2007, 06:55 AM

Yay!

Phoenix Wright 2 arrived today!

Now I just need to complete the last case on the first game so I can start playing this second one...

How come? Disregarding that you have to use a gamepad (hate that on fps) I really wanna play 360 predator. Mainly for the graphics but hey, atmosphere is everything to me.

Well I didn't like the Far Cry on the PC either (so you can take my opinion with a grain of salt

), but from what I heard about the console versions of Farcry from fans of the PC version is that they are inferior. They are developed by a different developer than the original.

What soccer dude said. The original Farcry team are making Crysis I think.

Not games, but I just had to tell someone!

I recently bought several DVD's from Play.com (they had a big january sale) and two DVD's from external suppliers. Today both the dvd from America and the dvd from Switzerland arrived. (the ones from play.com haven't arrived yet

)

I'm now the proud owner of:

Monsters Inc. Collector's Edition 2-Disc DVD (I've been looking for this for ages, Norway only sells the one disk version, and I didn't really want the American one)

And
Walt Disney Treasures - More Silly Symphonies - in Tin box

Jelena · 02-05-2007, 10:44 AM

It turns out the e-Bay seller didn't con me after all. Barrow Hill showed up today!

I've been waiting this to release in Europe for a while.

Sorry for the late reply but A64 4800+ dual core, 2gb 2-2-2-5 ram and a 650watt power supply. So far they worked fine but there's unfortunally not many games to play.

That's the only game I ever started that I quite because of the terrible voice acting. That, plus the inability to speed up the text meant that I could read the whole sentence, but then had to sit there for a couple seconds while the utterly horrible voices caught up. I just couldn't do it.

I've played every Grandia game past the first one and thoroughly enjoyed them, though.

insane_cobra · 02-10-2007, 07:17 AM

I was after Rez (it was on sale for $9, all the more impressive considering the rarity of the PAL version), but I couldn't find a copy so I took these:

Guess I'll have to import the Japanese version of Rez.

Giligan · 02-10-2007, 11:00 AM

Does "going to buy" count?

Probably not, but I'll be purchasing Indiana Jones, as soon as it comes out on 3/1/07. Going to have to sell a few old game first, though.

insane_cobra · 02-10-2007, 01:35 PM

Don't hold your breath because the next Indiana Jones game most certainly won't come out on 3/1/07. It's at least six months away.
