EA destroying Ultima Online.

 

[radioheadrule83]

Actually, I wouldn't mind seeing new SEGA AGES lines for each of the current handhelds. Pixel perfect MD ports for GBA, perfect Saturn ports for DS and perfect DC ports for PSP would work really well I think... something along the lines of this...

SEGA AGES 2500 Advance
-Vol.1 Sonic the Hedgehog
-Vol.2 Bare Knuckle
-Vol.3 Shining in the Darkness
-Vol.4 Gunstar Heroes
-Vol.5 VR Virtua Racing
-etc

SEGA AGES 2500 DS
-Vol.1 NiGHTS... into dreams
-Vol.2 Virtua Fighter 2
-Vol.3 Sega Rally Championship
-Vol.4 Panzer Dragoon
-Vol.5 Magic Knight Rayearth
-etc

SEGA AGES 2500 Portable
-Vol.1 Sonic Adventure
-Vol.2 Virtua Fighter 3tb
-Vol.3 Sega Rally 2
-Vol.4 Space Channel 5
-Vol.5 Eternal Arcadia
-etc

Thats a damn hot idea

 

[CajoleJuice]

Square jumping ship to Sony was not a fanbase betrayal. All the FF fanbase had to do was buy a different console, because the switch happened before both consoles were out. Square "betrayed" Nintendo.

Now, the (apparent) GC exclusive for RE4 was a fanbase betrayal at the time, because people had already bought PS2 for RE games. But they cleared that up eventually.

The biggest fanbase betrayal was Sega just dropping all Dreamcast support. Not releasing Shenmue II in the US on DC?? WTF is that?

 

[jarrod]

Thats a damn hot idea

Yeah, the more I think about it, the more I like it... worthy of exploring in a new thread I think.

 

[Ganondorf>Link]

You forgot when Sega fucked over DC owners at the end of its life, cancelling Shenmue II for DC (in the USA) and bringing it to Xbox.

FUCK YOU SEGA!!!!

 

[Jive Turkey]

Wait, what? VII and VIII have the same damn battle systems all the other FF games have, just with different magic/customizing systems, and X has THE best battle system in the entire FF series (just basically everything else about the game more or less sucked to varying degrees).

Meh I prefer the earlier FF style with less customization. Each character is in a class of their own. With FF7 the characters become all the same once they start mastering spells and abilities. To be fair FF6 had this too but Espers > Materia.

You must have never heard of, or weren't around during the demise of the Sega Saturn, Sega 32X, or Sega CD. Sega fans are used to the abuse.

I wasn't dumb enough to get any of those. Come on, who the fuck bought the 32X? :lol

:lol So true!




Now I have gone and made myself sad.

 

[Pachael]

Driv3r. I actually enjoyed the first two, and then, well, car-wreck.

And after watching Path of Neo's ending, I guess it's not really a betrayal with the 'FUCK YOU FANS' since at least they were frank.

And I'm quite gutted that the 'spiritual successor' to Brave Fencer Musashi, one of my favourite games from the PS era, got 'Musashi Samurai Legend', which is crap in comparison. That's just me, though.

 

[Son of Godzilla]

Super Monkey Ball: The Definitive Version not being on the same platform every other one is on has got to rank high.

 

[Borys]

FF7

PS3 ---------> DS

As S.PONG says :lol

 

[dorio]

Have to go with Rare > MS and the Nfl License going to EA.

 

[goomba]

Square to Playstation 4 sure.

 

[Suburban Cowboy]

Anyone mention MGS2 yet? Im not talking about the disappointing story but the whole gay parade that is Raiden

 

[Widfara]

you guys are retarded.

you have discovered the truth

 

[Shouta]

and X has THE best battle system in the entire FF series

Correction, FFX-2 has the best battle system of the entire FF series. =P

 

[Spazbiohaz]

L.A. Rush. Why did they take away my tracks and tricks. Give them back.

 

[Oblivion]

Zelda OoT > Celda
Mario 64 > Mario Sunshine
PoP: SoT> PoP: WW
RE4 announced for PS2 DAYS before being released on the GC.

Also, let's see how the PS2 version of RE4 sells since people seem to think it was a bad idea on the GC .

 

[Ganondorf>Link]

The Dreamcast was the first Sega system I ever owned, and sadly the last.

 

[Diablos]

Blame yourself for not being able to adapt beyond the h4rdc0r3 0ldsc001. FF1-6 were great, but FF7-10 (and hopefully 12) have been so much more interesting and expansive.

This is so true.

 

[Pack of Wild Rats]

Not the game, that was amazing. The fact that Nintendo used cartridges.

god bless cartridges. Fuck loading and fuck memmory cards.

 

[evil ways]

I remember when Rare went with Microsoft, and it was made to be such a big deal, especially by Nintendo fans, even though Rare had not put out any decent games in years.

People are STILL making a big deal about games RARE is about to put out even tho they havent had a decent one in years.

The Legend of DiaperKid: The Wind Wanker

Sega pulling out of consoles.

 

[Shouta]

Uh no, that wasn't me. I just said I didn't like the opening.

 

[jiggle]

Square going to PS1, and taking Enix with it.

 

[Diablos]

FFX-2 has the best battle system?

 

[hobbitx]

Deus Ex 2 hurt me in my tender places

That whole family of games recent console endeavors have hurt me so. Looking at how both games have done it seems like they would have made more money sticking with pc and porting later. I hope the new System Shock doesn't end up the same way.

.....and fuck Crystal Dynamics for Blood Omen 2!

 

[Striek]

Going to go with Nintendo letting MS buy RareWare. That gave the Xbox so much 'legitimacy' to gamers IMO. Had Nintendo bought Rare instead, this gen could've been alot different (and better) for them.

 

[bumpkin]

...when Oddworld Inhabitants moved Munch's Oddysee to the Xbox.

...when RE4 was announced as a 'Cube exclusive (initially)... I didn't care, but some people were pissed. :lol

 

[artful_dodger]

Fallout, without question upon creating F:BOS for PS2/Xbox and Interplay management for simultaneously cancelling the long awaited Fallout 3.

Oh how could I forget this one. Sooo painful
Then they went and turned it into a turd. Also painful.

 

[The Take Out Bandit]

Sega letting Genki port VF3 to the Dreamcast, then drumming up mad hype for a Namco fighter on their system. Namco renamed Sega Toby that day.

What's next? Miyamoto letting Naughty Dog make the next Mario game?!

Sega also not releasing Spikeout for the Dreamcast was like cum in my eye.

These, in addition to a multitude of similarly shit business decisions with the Dreamcast are why it's my most reviled Sega console of all time. You already rue the day Sega, but I'll be there to grind my heel in your balls to add insult to injury!

I laughed my ass off at how vicious the Fallout fan community got. Rightfully so, too, but it was pretty damn funny. I'd rarely seen a fan site get so outright nasty at their dev. Perhaps because most of the rest have been bought up by Planet Wombat

 

[Mr_Furious]

Sega has betrayed its fanbase soooooo many times now it's not even funny.

 

[Keru_Shiri]

Damn striaght.

X-2's battle's were fun, but X was better. I'm sorry, but active time bar is just a tad overrated IMO.

 

[G-Fex]

the zelda hopeful for gamecube then it becoming WW.

 

[WrathOfOtaibah]

Nintendo Ogborn'd me with the N64.

QFT.　Sega has the worst marketing ever, couldn't even sell the Nomad, a portable Genesis, in the days of the B&W Gameboy. Sega couldn't sell a war to the Bush administration.

 

[Lyte Edge]

Sega dumping the Saturn, then promising that they would make up for it with the Dreamcast...

...followed by Sega later dumping the Dreamcast in the same way.

The runner-up for me is the Game Cube; Nintendo is at least sticking with the system, but all the other developers that dropped it or did half-ass ports of games instead of making them take advantage of the hardware.

But they did make up with the lame Saturn...Dreamcast fucking owns, its the asshole buyers that bought PS2s with no games instead ><

 

[CarlosX360]

Yuck.

Let me build on that:

Changing the name from Ultra 64 to Nintendo 64.

I'm sorry, but Ultra 64 was a better name.

Fuck, I mean, Ultra 64 was more recognized than anything on the market at the time, since it was an arcade board before it became N64.

 

[Red Scarlet]

Bullshit. FFVIII and IX are still the most amazing looking psx games along side Vagrant STory. What the FUCK are you smoking?

Lol, Vagrant Story looked (and played) like smeared shit.

What's the opposite of 'nostalgia'? Because how much that is thrown around, there has to be some comparable derogatory term for tossing stuff aside if it isn't brand-spanking new (I'm looking at you, SSX). What you are doing is just as bad as other people's so-called nostalgia label you ever so graciously throw out for people not being a whore to stuff that is not on the shiniest new system. Pathetic.

 

[Duderz]

Lol, Vagrant Story looked (and played) like smeared shit.

what

 

[Red Scarlet]

I didn't like the game, and it had ugly grafx.

 

[Wollan]

Lol, Vagrant Story looked (and played) like smeared shit.

Your opinion is so bad you need to be banned.

 

[Red Scarlet]

Your opinion is so bad you need to be banned.

That's great.

My opinion is very, unique/bizarre, yes, but it is the only one I have. And I wouldn't trade it for anyone else's. I am sure you enjoy many things I do not, and also dislike many things that I wholeheartedly do. I however, do not feel so much hatred for someone that does not like a game that I do to be banned.

I am sure you are just as 'uneducated' about some things I like that you believe I am 'uneducated' about Vagrant Story. Them's the breaks. Not everybody is going to like everything.

I do not need the opinions of anyone else to validate nor invalidate my preferences, which you unfortunately do. Vagrant Story was a horrible game to me, you apparently liked it quite a bit. Now if you turn around and call something I am endearing to, sure I will disagree, but to want you banned? No, I am not that petty.

Also, I forgot that I was supposed to give a shit what you think, and also that anyone should give a shit what I think, either.

Good day to you, sir.

 

[The End]

In all fairness, Chrono Cross looked a lot better than Vagrant Story.
