All RPG fans should play through it at least once. I've played it and I recall enjoying it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Smues Report post Posted November 29, 2008 So I have to ask, because I'm curious... I know they've gone in a decline...but are there any cheat devices for the XBox 360? I don't think so. I don't think there are any for any of the current gen consoles, and my guess is there won't be as they can firmware update them into oblivion pretty quick. And the risk of online cheating may factor into it as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thoth 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2008 There will never be a cheat device for the 360. For any product to interact directly with the hardware, Microsoft has to license it. Note that there are no unlicensed third party 360 controllers. There is a cheat device for the Wii, though, I believe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ChrisMWaters 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2008 Curse my partial colorblindness. I'm playing the game Justice League Heroes on my PSP (figured I needed to get SOMETHING for it) and now I'm stuck on the Batman/Zatanna team up level where they're in the other dimension. It says to use a sequence of portals to teleport...but the one FAQ I have is color. I thought I figured it out, but apparently my green and yellow detection isn't good when it comes to the lights. Anyone who played and beat that game tell me which portals I need to use? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bobobrazil1984 0 Report post Posted December 12, 2008 Anybody got any really good iPhone/iPod Touch game suggestions? There are some good free ones, but the more 'professional' paid ones are pretty sharp. I bought Crash Bandicoot 3D Racing - pure ripoff of Mario Kart of course, but its very fun with multiple tracks and unlockable stuff. Kept me busy on a long plane ride. The other one I bought was Fieldrunners, a tower defense game that was getting unanimous 5 star reviews. interesting game, and actually lots of fun. Sort of a RTS game almost, as you buy different weapons and use placement to blast away successively harder attackers. The free games tend to be more casual, anaconda, papijump, demo versions of more pro games (Pac Man lite, Blocks classic lite, etc), etc etc. But Crash and FieldRunners were a little more involved than your casual tetris-type game. Really turned me around on the viability of iPod Touch (and phone) as a viable gaming platform. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Smues Report post Posted December 12, 2008 I got my wife an iPod touch, and she really likes the version of Spore they have for it. Of course, that was when she could play it. For some reason when she installs games and aps they work for a day or so, then won't load. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Smues Report post Posted December 22, 2008 I finally finished Tales of Symphonia 2. If the first one is a 10/10, I'd call the sequel 7.5/10. Not great like the original, with some big flaws, but still quite enjoyable and worth the play for anyone who enjoyed the first one. But man oh man if I never have to hear "courage is the magic that turns dreams into reality" again it'll be too soon. It's mainly early in the game that's it's over killed, but christ. There's a drinking game for you, take a shot every time that phrase is said. You'll be sauced pretty quick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Star Ocean 3 0 Report post Posted December 24, 2008 The Tales series is basically a sports franchise. They release a new one (or two) every year, and there's not much difference year to year besides some tweaks in the gameplay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Black Lushus 0 Report post Posted December 24, 2008 This is my first foray in to the Tales world...it's okay, but nothing impressive. However since I only own a Wii, currently and I was dying for some RPG action, I went ahead and grabbed it up. It's not bad, but it's not compelling enough to make me sink massive hours in to it like FF6 or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is compelling enough to sink massive hours into it. I've got 5 or 6 play throughs on it and my total saved time is at around 180 hours IIRC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
