It's probably the second-best RPG on the system, after Ys Seven.

Three other Legend of Heroes games were released in the States on PSP... They're actually harder to find than TitS and were localized (badly) by Namco instead of XSEED.

I listened to Hardcore Gaming 101's Game Club 199X podcast and made me think I should give Master of Orion a try. What do you think of it? Should I play the original or the sequel?

After playing assasins creed for 2/3 hours i can say that the game so far is meh. It feels like an automatic prince of persia.

Is Book Worm for the GBA considered a rare game? That's what it says in the NES Collector Pro app.

So I've been playing Space Quest on my Apple IIe recently.
I've never gotten very far in the game, but I finally made it to the LAST SIDE of the LAST DISK.
But now I'm haunted by disk read errors when I try to load that disk, and that side especially.
I suspect that the data is intact but that the center of the disk might be too worn and the drive isn't "gripping" it properly.

This makes me EXTREMELY UPSET. I wish it was the first disk that was messed up, so I wouldn't have wasted so much time and I could have just played the PC version instead... GAAH.

Damn, that blows, dude. I don't know Space Quest for the Apple II manages its saves, but perhaps you can back them up and play the rest in an emulator?

Did you think I was being serious or is this a sarcastic reply to my sarcastic comment?

The former. I was thrown off by the lack of blue text.
