I'm much more excited for Versus.

Too bad we get FFXIII-2 this year, that inevitably pushes back Versus even more!Bradtemple87 wrote:I will admit I have not finished that one, somewhere on the overworld.emwearz wrote:Ok, Final Fantasy XIII just doesn't end, so slow and boring at the moment, really having to push myself to finish it.

Terranigma isn't my absolute favorite, but bar none probably the most cinematic experience I've ever seen on the SNES. Absolutely amazing stuff, I just loved how the storytelling/scenes seemed way out there compared to the norm. It's odd the US didn't get it, the religious themes were heavy and that was probably it... yet we got other crazy Enix games like EVO (all about evolution), Actraiser (you pretty much play as God), etc. Enix loved that stuff back then.eskil wrote:I just finished Terranigma on SNES, it was absolutely wonderful. I'm told America missed out on it because it came out late and had an esoteric theme that wouldn't go over well with all you Jesus-loving freaks (personally, I think the former was the decisive factor). If you've never played it, I highly encourage you to do so.
Now, I'm playing Legend of Mana on PSX which is nice because it's easy to zone in and out of. The storyline is incoherent so it doesn't matter if you stop playing for a month only to pick it up again later.
Almost forgot about Actraiser, that game wasn't too shabby.Ryvius wrote:Terranigma isn't my absolute favorite, but bar none probably the most cinematic experience I've ever seen on the SNES.

Hey, if I don't agree with a game's philosophical stance, then I won't play it. It is why have stayed away from Bayonetta, Xenogears (still unsure about Xenosaga), and the mainstream Megami Tensei games. It's not like I have a problem with anyone else playing it. I would appreciate it if you didn't marginalize the entire Christian religion into "Jesus-loving freaks". Even if you meant it as a joke, it was in poor taste, in my opinion. Still, I support your right to say what you like about Christians, I just don't appreciate your sentiment. I know I am one of the few. Christians that post here, so this will probably eventually start a flame war, despite that not being my intention at all; I honestly don't mean to be a dick about this. I'm just stating my opinion.eskil wrote:I just finished Terranigma on SNES, it was absolutely wonderful.
