As much as I love the Saga games, I'm with you on that as well. I liked the anime cutscenes and character designs of Gears better than the CG ones of Saga, and the gameplay was much more involved. I also prefer the Xenogears plot, but what kills me is that the Saga games were meant to be true sequels but weren't because of the switch to Namco. You can tell with all of the similarities between Xenoblade Chronicles and the original Xenogears that they are still itching to do it, and considering that if you believe the rumors the 2nd disc of Xenogears never got to reach its potential (be it budget cuts, time constraints, whatever), I think it would be ripe for a remake with the true sequels it deserved. SE is just setting on the property anyway, I wish Nintendo would step up to the plate here.CavZee wrote: Hmmm...well you should try it at some point. I'd say 'gears is the better game. It starts a bit cliched but quickly switches to a rollercoaster of constant "OMG", "WTF", and "whoa".
Battles are neat and the music is pretty sweet too.

Re: Wii-U thoughts so far
Well I am soon going to be able to contribute to this thread because in 2 weeks I wil have a Wii U of my own! I am getting the Windwaker bundle because of the cool game pad. I traded in a bunch of games to GameStop that a roommate left behind when he moved out and got $128 and I have enough points to cash in to get $50 off:). Since I don't shop at GameStop much at all anymore I figured that I would at least use the point that's I have accrued over the last years. I can't wait!
I am buying all Saturn games, PM me with your offerings and I will let you know if I need the game or not! (Everything must be CIB)
Currently trying to knock off all the sports games, would like to get them <$5 each! Of course if you would like to donate them I will gladly pay the shipping!

Not to hype any of you more than you need to be but, apparently today's direct will be the longest since last E3, running for approximately 41 minutes!

Fuck. And I was saving my pop-corn for today's Euroleague matches. Now I will have to sit through 2 basketball games without something unhealthy to snack on.
