Re: Random Gaming Thoughts
Finally got around to playing Dragon's Crown for the first time tonight. A game I've been meaning to play since release (I even double dipped, got it on Vita and PS3). My wife and I started co-op'ing it. I think she likes it, I kinda... love it. I mean, it's like the D&D arcade games (my all time favorite arcade games) with a meaningful RPG system built on top. I think we might be playing this one for a while. Even if she doesn't... I will.
PLAY KING'S FIELD.

Re: Random Gaming Thoughts
See, what I like about it is the lack of a database. It just feels like there's more freedom. I know I could just add whatever game to the database, but for some reason (completely irrational, I know, but I'm weird like that), a database bugs me.darsparx wrote:Backloggery would be nicer if they had a actual database of games that exist on it(and to detect when I'm about to input something that's close to a duplicateElkinFencer10 wrote:I messed around with HLTB a little bit, but I didn't like the interface as much for tracking my collection, and it doesn't have as many platform options as Backloggery.

Re: Random Gaming Thoughts
In the case of HLTB; a lot of people don't seem to understand that with HLTB, you can add a game to the database if it's not already there. Many times I've beaten an obscure game and added it myself. Sometimes I just put the name of the game and the year, and volunteers come by later and fill in the nitty gritty details. HLTB has a great community.ElkinFencer10 wrote:See, what I like about it is the lack of a database. It just feels like there's more freedom.

Poking around the internet and found this list of Top 25 Genesis games of all-time. This is the worst list of anything I've ever seen.

Re: Random Gaming Thoughts
Oh no there are certainly some great choices there but I'm not saying the whole list is bunk, just a good portion of it. The list below is much closer in my opinion, but it's still missing some IMO.alienjesus wrote:I don't get the issue, most of the games on that list are fantastic?

Re: Random Gaming Thoughts
I think both those lists have some really odd choices. Ah, subjectivity.

Re: Random Gaming Thoughts
Samurai Shodown for the #2 spot is a pretty bold choice, admittedly. Likewise, the list really should include Shadow Blasters and Sword of Sodan.Snatch1414 wrote:Poking around the internet and found this list of Top 25 Genesis games of all-time. This is the worst list of anything I've ever seen.

Re: Random Gaming Thoughts
Glad to see someone around here loves Dragon's Crown, Ex. I was also a huge fan when it came out. I figured a game originally made for the Dreamcast finally getting a release would have gone over well here, but alas.
