MAF Sez: Got 20 Bucks?

Really want to finish this Splinter Cell campaign so I can finally get back to playing Phantom Dust. I'm getting crazy invites tempting me, but DAMNIT the Koreans are up to no good!

I'd need more than that since I gave away my XBOX for a good cause.
If somebody wants to grab me one I'll gladly get XBL and Phantom Dust.

c'mon Oli, now you're just baiting

You gotta be on at the right time fool I will gladly play with you

The GAF community keeps me playing this, it's funny to talk lots of SHIT about all of YOU
I'll add you to my list. What times are you people normally on? :\
 
I don't have an Xbox, and I don't even think the game looks all the impressive, but the folks behind Panzer is behind, and that's enough for me to support if with my $20.

You're still playing the single, Dem? Don't you have to do it all over again, or whatever due to your Xbox being banned?

Yes, but I don't care. I will play this again.

Please don't bash other games :(

I like Splinter Cell and Phantom Dust, so they can be equal!
 
MEAN MR ANGRY FACE!

:(

Actually, this has me wondering whether you guys really believe you are making me angry. The moment a game makes me angry, I turn it off.

:p
 
Anyone have an unused 2month XBL card? My subscription is coming to an end and I can't afford to renew it. :(
 
haha... I get that often... it's a good ice breaker in many circumstances. :p

I MIGHT have an unused 2 month trial, but I'm not certain. It's actually more likely I don't have one, but I can check tonight.
 
I've been meaning to pick both these games up... Phantom Dust may or may not be my cup of tea, but the fact that it's a Japanese budget release for Xbox and it's XBL compatible (and made by the Panzer Dragoon guys) definitely interests me. I'll have to pick it up eventually... I'm running on empty and need money for gas/car wash (plus I owe $3000) so maybe next week or something :P

A question of Phantom Brave - if I didn't really like Disgaea, will I like this? Disgaea was a bit too quirky and too much of a level grinder for my tastes.

Last question - who's that guy in the picture? I've seen that picture a few times before, was wondering...
 
Disgaea IS pretty quirky, and to be honest, so is Phantom Brave. Not as much, but it is. Its a bit of a trademark of their titles. The battle system I feel is much more interesting. Random Dungeons are neat, and I guess there's tricks to level up fast.

I have been told however, you can beat the game at a normal pace if you like. Like disgaea it isnt required you get top characters, its just there for people who like to tweak. Theres plenty of straight up story and characters to meet if you arent there for the uber level/item grind like I am ;)

So is the single player worth playing in Phantom Dust? I don't have Xbox Live or any plans to join....

For $20, I honestly have to say maybe. Once you finish the story, the only things left to do are complete all 114 missions, and then gather all the skills, and even then you can't do it without going online.

I mean, there are several other $20 titles out there (both new and old), some of those games may be a better choice, but Phantom Dust stands out among them, not as the best, but as a

Maybe.
