@Mickeymac - I'd reccomend 999 in a heartbeat and Big Bang Mini as well. Those are actually the only 2 on that list that I have, but I reccomend them both.

Exactly.

Duely noted, especially on the Big Bang Mini.

Here's where I need to ask some questions:

I added Glory of Hercules because it was recommended by a friend, but I couldn't get him to say much about it. What do you think about it? I'm not asking for much. The best and worst points will do.

Most people tell me the story in RE: Coded isn't very good. Do you agree with that? If so, do you think the rest of the game make up for it?

My biggest quam about 999 is that I hate books. Are the Room escaping sequences frequent enough so it balances out the novel elements?

I've heard lots of bad things about the new Golden Sun - pacing problems, too much dialogue, easy gameplay, to name a few. What's your take on it? Are the problems not as bad as they seem, or do other things make up for them?

I'll take yours and Birdman's word on Big Bang Mini. It's a unique shooter from what I hear, so I'm sure I'd like it. Shouldn't be too hard to get it for cheap, too.

Not sure why I put Kirby: Mass Attack and Camping Mama on there. I guess I figured one of the staff might chime in. Oh well. I'll leave those as maybes until they come out and some people have played them.

Kirby Mass Attack was not my favorite, and Re:Coded wasn;t that good as well. I should chose the others.

@Mickeymac Bangai-O Spirits is even better than the Dreamcast version. Get it. Also, 999 and Infinite Space are both great games.

I don't recommend FFXII: Revenant Wings or any of the X Mama games. Revenant Wings was boring and X Mama games are extremely low budget. Highly recommend the original FFXII though.

I have Luminous Arc currently unplayed, so I don't know if it's any good yet. Too many games. x_x

I've heard Glory of Heracles is a generic JRPG, and not in a good way like Radiant Historia.

Golden Sun is an ok rpg its not horrible by any means but it could have been better. You pretty much outlined all of the major flaws the only other thing that I could add is that the game feels very short even though it took me 20hrs mainly because it was so easy. On the bright side the game looks great, combat is smooth, and the zelda-like puzzles are also a blast.

friends, i need your help.

i need a game.
a great game.
a game that will keep my occupied for hours.
more specifically, a game that has something that i change.
something i can come back to.
something i can build up,
and something i can tear down.
kind of like animal crossing.
but not animal crossing.
something on a grander scale.
maybe a city building game.
maybe not.
i don't know exactly what i want.
i vaguely know what i want.
i'm being difficult and i won't tell myself what i want.

anyway, place your recommendations below please.
thank you.
thank you.
and especially thank YOU.
but not you.
i don't like you.

okay so i am playing advance wars dark conflikt right now. i really fell in love with that game and i almost finished the main campaign. i know there is a ton of bonus missions to do and skirmishes but i wonder what game i should purchase next.

there is advance wars dual strike which looks not so polished like dark conflikt. would i be disappointed by dual strike? does the game miss any important things that dark conflikt has?

another game i am interested in is fire emblem. it is made by the same developer, it looks exactly like the same gerne. does it play like advance wars? are there other fire emblem games other than shadow dragon? keep in mind i can only purchase EU-games.

what should i try next? dual strike or fire emblem?

You really can't go wrong with either. I liked Dual Strike more than Dark Conflict, but I started with Advance Wars 2. 1, 2, and DS are set in the same universe, and are more lighthearted. The soundtrack is also less metal. It is still a VERY great game.

Now on to Fire Emblem. I looooove Fire Emblem. I started out with Path of Radiance on GCN. To me and to many others, the console ones are better. I've played all of the english FEs and a translated FE Sword of Seals so I think I know FE pretty well. Shadow Dragon to me was the worst in the series so far. But by no means was it bad! I just feel it was lighter on story than the others.

In the end, I say get Shadow Dragon first. You need to experience Fire Emblem. It's an amazing franchise. Shadow Dragon, if I'm not mistaken, is also a remake of the first FE so you won't need to worry about any backstory.

Dragon Quest Nine should keep you occupied for at least 500 hours, possibly even more if you want to complete the game 100%.

This is a signature.
