Why don't people talk about this game more?

Talk about just about anything else that is non-gaming here, but keep it clean

To say I'm a huge Darkstalkers fan would be a understatement, and it always bothered me that nobody liked it until it was renamed and repackaged with Street Fighter and Marvel comic characters. And then repackaged again with one-armed samurai chicks, yo-yo wielding shota traps and bisexual assassins with living hair.
You say that like yo-yo wielding shota traps are a bad thing.

My game that I tell everyone about is X3. Such a fantastic space sim with so much to do. Build up a mercantile fleet or just get a huge battleship and decimate some Xenon.

Yo-yo wielding shotas are always a bad thing, Mr. Popo.

I wish folks would talk about the Bushido Blade series more often. The first one was good, and the second took it and improved upon it in so many ways. And the Tobal series. In fact, let's just lump in all of Square's non-RPGs(and pseudo RPGs like Parasite Eve) that don't get talked about of the PlayStation era. I wish these would get more recognition.

Brainy Gamer's Vintage Game Club is playing this right now, but you were probably already aware of that.

Is there really much to be said? It's, Ocarina of Time, just with far more sidequests.

A guy at gamestop told me it was like Grand Theft Auto in Japan. That's wrong. One hundred percent wrong. It's like River City Ransom and Shenmue, with a gritty Yakuza (Japanese mafia) movie storyline. It's a beat em up, you level up, and you're presented with lots of storyline filled with people getting beat up and typical mafia plotlines like working with the police and being falsely accused, fighting allies and forming new ones. I'm a little confused by it all, but I've got the jist of it to know where to go from point A to point B.

Please buy Yakuza 2. My copy was 20 dollars with box and instructions.
Its down to 20 bucks? Guess I'm getting it today! Thanks for the heads up! Loved the first one.

No one there is saying much either, just talking about how it reminds them of the music from, "ocarina of time", and that they need walk-throughs to help them.
It's not a bad game, especially not if you love Zelda games. When you break it apart though, you'll see that its not doing anything above and beyond, Ocarina of Time, just more of the same.
