Ogre Battle 64 is better than FF Tactics.

This is like someone saying Castlevania 64 is better than Symphony of the night

 

[SmithnCo]

LOL that pic

 

[UnInvincible]

Seriously, other than MGS1, I can't think of a single reason to want the PS1. FFVII was crazy overrated.

Legend of Legaia, mother fucker.

Coming in late from work, Virtual Pro Wrestling is on the screen. I can always support that.

 

[nckillthegrimace]

Tekken 3, Gran Turismo 2, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, Xenogears, Soul Reaver, Ridge Racer Type 4, Tony Hawk 2, FF VIII and IX, Chrono Cross (yeah yeah), Crash Bandicoot, Vagrant Story etc.

For me the PS1's library was a LOT deeper than the N64's library, even if the two best N64 games (Mario 64 and OoT) were by far the best games of that generation. PS1 wins.

I also think that PS1 games have aged better than N64 games in general, probably because of the garbage framerate of so many N64 games and that washed out look.

PS1 has lots of anime games, so I can see why you are such a big fan.

I'm pretty sure all the names in Virtual Pro Wrestling 2 are all in Japanese (at least, that's how it was on my copy), which means someone went through all those wrestlers and renamed them with English/Roman characters.

 

[ratcliffja]

Castlevania 64 and SOTN were both heavily flawed games, though.

 

[hamchan]

I like how Dan makes Jeff play wrestling games with him when Jeff is on record saying he thinks wrestling games suck.

 

[AuthenticM]

The N64 was the beginning for Nintendo in having people buy their console mainly to play their games. Playstation was where third-party support was.

Ryan has burned into my mind how to say executable correctly and hearing Brad say it wrong actually made me wince a little bit.

Oh you

But yeah, your appreciation of the PS1 library will be very dependent on how much you liked JRPGs back then.

Now you're just trolling here, there's nothing flawed about SOTN!

They might have been able to amend it via Action Replay or something. I can't remember if it had on-board memory or if it was memory pak only.

Or as you say, Jason's mate did it the hard way. The true way!

Resident Evil 64 (Resident Evil 2) was the definitive version of that game. So there.

I need to know which PS1 game is the most moe

 

[stump sock]

hahahah this is the best segment on UPF in months

 

[Myggen]

I need to know which PS1 game is the most moe

Vagrant Story.

edit: What the fuck is happening here.

 

[Antiwhippy]

I need to know which PS1 game is the most moe

Tokimeki memorial.

Final Fantasy VII/VIII/IX/Tactics
Parasite Eve 1/2
Xenogears
Vagrant Story
Valkyrie Profile
Chrono Cross
Suikoden 1/2
Grandia
Dragon Quest VII
Breath of Fire 3/4
Star Ocean 2
Grandia

and that's just off the top of my head. It was insane how many JRPGs there were on PS1 and PS2 after it. Miss those days

 

[ratcliffja]

im crying right now

I'm sorry I drove you to tears with the truth. It's tough.

Edit: There's only a few JRPGs that I've really loved. Tales of Phantasia, Tales of Symphonia, Tales of Vesperia, FFIV, FFX, and.... I think that's about it. Chrono Trigger was alright, though a bit overrated.

Didn't everybody? I did this with at least 5 Japanese pro wrestling games at the time. Not all of them let you edit the names, but still I didn't manage to accidentally pick up any Japanese along the way.

Yup, many of the best JRPGs of all time on that console. Man, the PS1 was fucking fantastic.

 

[Twin Tails]

Spoiler

Danny !

 

[Plexirvones]

Dan/Drew (I asume) are going to look at Darkness Assault

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1TX7Grwjsg

This is going to be something special.

Vinny made the page on Giant Bomb. So probably Vinny/Alex.

 

[nckillthegrimace]

Wait, he only has four shirts?

 

[stump sock]

Tokimeki memorial.

 

[robotrock]

Jason is the best

 

[SmithnCo]

Nice shirt.

 

[giant_frying_pan]

Ooo a Giant Bomb mug? Will go well with my Zojirushis.

 

[KingKong]

I like how Dan makes Jeff play wrestling games with him when Jeff is on record saying he thinks wrestling games suck.

He knows he can beat him and assert his dominance

 

[def sim]

Well, I guess I gotta use this coupon code some day.

 

[TraBuch]

Honestly, I think Squaresoft alone made the PS1 better than the N64 for me.

Final Fantasy
Bushido Blade
Xenogears
Parasite Eve
Tobal
Brave Fencer Musashi
Chrono Cross
Threads of Fate
Legend of Mana
Vagrant Story
Front Mission
SaGa Frontier

 

[Chuck]

lol

Fuck you Peter

 

[Incandenza]

New shirts! Danny! Broken promises!

 

[stump sock]

lol

Fuck you Peter

hahaha yeah

 

[Anjin M]

Chrono Trigger was alright, though a bit overrated.

Chrono Trigger is the only Square RPG worth a damn. Are you on the hunk, son?!?

 

[daydream]

If only it wasn't called Ogre Battle 64, people would remember it better.

EDIT: Holy eff! The subtitle is "Person of Lordly Caliber"? That's amazing.

best subtitle in games

other best subtitles are the king's quest subtitles

 

[ratcliffja]

Chrono Trigger is the only Square RPG worth a damn. Are you on the hunk, son?!?

It's no Super Mario RPG.

 

[Shiny Llama]

Oh man there's a Supreme QL on the schedule.

Without spoiling anything, that one should be amazing.

 

[ratcliffja]

Isn't that just a QL with sour cream and tomatoes?

I guess if you've got the president as a guest star you need to upgrade your naming conventions.

Maho Classica is my favorite subversive magical girl beer.

 

[Chuck]

Since they're playing it, Grow Home is my current goty. It's an amazing game y'all should all play it.

 

[Myggen]

You're being a dick ET, go home.

 

[stump sock]

Maho Classica is my favorite subversive magical girl beer.

it tastes really fresh but it's actually 10,000 years old

 

[ratcliffja]

Wait, nobody made that connection with Grow Home being just like Ubisoft tower climbing? That seemed crazy obvious to me and not even in a joking manner.
