I am interested in reading your thoughts on it. Despite the fact it corrupted my save file at the end of Episode II, I still loved it.

I'll save it until the series is complete then I think.

I can't wait to receive my Vita copy this week. I've been looking forward to playing the series since before the first episode came out. However, similar to Noise, I like to wait until the complete season is finished.

Sometimes I like to take half an hour or so to browse and "research" the games on GameFAQs.

The only problem is that when I'm done I've added 5-10 games to my Want List.

A word of warning:

Don't ever go to videogamepricecharts.com, read through its multiple, comprehensive lists of games for a large variety of systems, and research every one you haven't heard of. Your "want" list will swell to immense size...

I dunno, knowing the prices of games upfront seems like it would discourage me more than anything. :lol:

Though lately if I find a game that piques my interest I will do a quick eBay search. If the game looks only so-so and is pricey I don't bother to add it to the Want List. Trying to stay somewhat realistic.

OK, so if I bought an official playstation (1) mouse, and hooked it up to the adapter that allows you to use the PS1 controller on the PS3, would it work on my disc-based PS1 games?

I've made whole want lists out of VGPC's lists. It has served me well at least for ballpark averages, and I love seeing when I get a game below that average.

I just found out the price on Startropics 2 isn't as crazy as I'd expect for a late NES release. $10 and under!

That is such a strange one. It is a very high-quality, late-preiod, first-party, NES game that sells for less than $10. If Nintendo ever revisits StarTropics - which it should - the game's price will probably climb quite a bit.
