I never understood the hate for RRV. Aside from the jaggies, what exactly was so bad about it? Sure it wasn't a big evolution in the series like Rage Racer was (or downgrade like RRT4), but it was in line with the originals in the series. If you enjoyed those titles, I don't see why you wouldn't enjoy RRV.
ourumov said:I love how the 90% of the RRV haters haven't even played it and are just complaining about screenshots that don't make any justice to how the game looks on a TV set.
Gregory said:You people are crazy. Namco has been SHIT ever since the current consoles came out. They ruled on PS1, they were perhaps the absolute best developers. It all started to go downhill with RR5 and Tekken Tag.
And it`s just become worse after that. Namco is just a shadow of it`s former greatness.

Just remember that you'll need a modded or JP GameCube to save your game, Drill Land has the same problem with FreeLoader that Konga does.buck naked said:Bobby, your undying love for Drill Land has convinced me. I'm going to go get a copy off ebay right now.
RRV was a disappointment. It was clearly rushed for the PS2's release, and it shows. And yes, R4 was the better game. IMO R4 was the best "home console" Ridge Racer released....
jett said:Namco really does kick ass.
Bitch please, you don't know what the fuck you're talking about.
Miburou said:Oh yes. Everything about part 2 was better. Challenge, length, puzzles, variety, etc.
Kiriku said:Tekken Tag is Tekken 3, but a lot better. I don't see how anyone would choose Tekken 3 over Tag.
Miburou said:Maybe I should've added the redundant IMO.
For it's time I had more fun with AC2 than with AC4. AC4 looked great, and was a lot of fun, but it felt repetitve and short.
hi is this the thread with the pissy bitches?
Umm... I hope you are joking.Time Crisis 3, great games? Fuck no.
Defensor said:Umm... I hope you are joking.

Jesus christ, you got every single one of those wrong!! :/Miburou said:Just for fun:
Ace Combat 2 > Ace Combat 4
Soul Calibur > Soul Calibur II
Klonoa 2 > Klonoa
Tekken 2, 3 > Tekken Tag, Tekken 4
Ridge Racer V > Rage Racer
RevenantKioku said:Seriously, who cares about series like Tekken and Ridge Racer compared to the other stuff Namco brings us
ourumov said:RRV has an awesome gameplay, it has style and awesome graphics, a superb soundtrack but most important it is the last decent Namco arcade racer we have received so FAR. There is absolutelly no reason to hate it if you are a fan of Ridge Racer, Rave Racer or some of the other Arcade Namco Racing efforts.
jarrod said:Jesus christ, you got every single one of those wrong!! :/
IMO of course...
Well, as said earlier, TTT is really just T3 plus more. Same can be said of SC2 to some extent... if the argument's about which game was more significant at the time your selections might have some validity (except for Klonoa & RR) but if it's which game holds up better regardless of release period concerns, you're way off.Miburou said:I didn't know you played any console games.
And while I can understand some objections, I can't give you any credit for saying that TTT/T4 is better than T2/T3 or SCII is better than SC.
Well, what didn't you like about Time Crisis 3(Although for the record I do think Time Crisis II is the best in the series)?Gregory said:Are you trying to tell me that time crisis 3 is great? I hope you are joking.
Gregory said:TTT was a fucking ripoff if you had the first 3 games. They just brought together the characters from the previous games, added a crap tag mode, and hey, new game. :/

Cute dig though.
Understood, I was just explaining my own position.Miburou said:I already explained that with my reply to Kiriku.
Well, I disagree. I found K1 to be the tighter game overall, with better level/mechanic design... though K2's excellent presentation and camera work is worth mentioning. KG2 kills them both however.Miburou said:And I do think Klonoa 2 and RRV are the best in the series.
Nope, as I specified it was an opinion. Sorry if you took it personally.Miburou said:And "Jesus christ, you got every single one of those wrong!!" isn't?
I still play the odd console game also occassionally (3rd Strike PS2 and Pikmin 2 currently)... I've personally sold off all my consoles except my Saturn though.Miburou said:And actually, I was being serious, I thought we said you're a GBA only gamer?
and they definitely made a bigger impact upon release, you seem to be shifting arguments a little here).
jarrod said:Namco does indeed rock, they have since PS1 hit the market.
Namco >>> Sega
Honsetly, I'd say VF/FV over Tekken/SC is about the only thing Sega has over Namco. PStar and SOA aren't nearly as playable as the Tales games (of which the Destiny installments are the worst). I'd take Klonoa over Sonic, Mr Driller over Puyo Puyo, Ridge Racer over Sega Rally, Ace Combat over AeroDancing, Time Crisis over Virtua Cop... hell, Katamari looks like it'll unseat Monkey Ball even. Five years ago, I might have agreed with you but in the mean time Namco just keeps getting better, while Sega just keeps getting worse. :/sonic4ever said:No sega is better then namco for one reason Virtua fighters is better then Tekken. Phantasy star and Skies of arcadia better then the tale of destiny series( well the 2 ps2 games anyway< this of course is jst my Opion and I know some people my belive other wise.
I actually love alot of Namco games, thay like Sega make a lot of Arcade type games. I won most of the current namco games on the PS2 except for Tekken 4. Just this past mOnth I found Klamoa 2 for the PS2. I love all the Gun games by Namco.
100% agreed. They along with Konami are the only major Japanese game companies who've made real progress this generation. Sega, Square, Enix & Nintendo (outside GBA at least) have all seemingly gone backwards in terms of their output quality. :/ourumov said:In general terms Namco and Capcom have done a great job this gen. +1 For them.
Maybe (though they've yet to make a worthy successor to the Deception series this gen) but I also wouldn't classify Tecmo as a major JP game company. They seem more 2nd tier, like Atlus, Hudson, Taito or Koei.Miburou said:I'd put Tecmo at the top of the list of Japanese companies that've improved this gen.
