I played Star Ocean Second Evolution on a rental back in '09. I forgot about the old school need to manually save and lost several hours of progress. Then I rage quit. I want it again though. It was cool and your screen shots above have me all agog.
I almost bought it day-one but I was committed to picking up Pandora's Tower that April which I had waited over a year to get.
If I ever see one in the wild. It's going home with me too.
I have a few Disgaea games and need to get to them. One of my favorite genres. This one sounds like more of the same awesomeness. I can't wait to get started.
I downloaded the demo. I'll find a moment to play it after all these comparisons to Final Fantasy games. I have 'til Feb. 7 to decide on the full game.
Oh cool! A super easy mode! I'm going to have to play that version. I bet it looks great on the 3DS too. Not too many games with underwater graphics in them.
Warhawk's a game I want to play. Long boxes aren't something I really care about except I did see a 3DO long box recently and those look really nice. Kind of like a CD box set case.
Those long boxes are kinda annoying. They always come with one corner broken so they don't stay closed too well.
It seems they wanted to differentiate themselves from music CDs by making those long boxes, but I guess cost drove them to go to standard CD cases anyway. I couldn't really find a good explanation online so I'm going with my guesswork.
All the Sega CD games are in long boxes I think.
Just discovered Howlongtobeat.com so here's a breakdown of play times just to do the main story, no DLC, to help you make a decision.
Resonance of Fate: 45 hours
Dishonored: 12 hours
Deus Ex: Human Revolution: 20 hours
Fallout New Vegas: 31 hours
Dead Space 2: 9 hours
So I'd say start with Dead Space 2, then Dishonored.
Interesting. I always wondered about that. I still see ads for DVDs all the time. I guess it's just me then. I haven't bought a DVD in ages.
