I read stuff about Soul Hackers way back and remembered vividly that it was funny
that calling her Sexy gets you Almighty spells. So I did that. So Zio.

Is that era of videogames over?
Are we past the point of having cool peripheral controllers like racing wheels or Flight sticks?

That's fair, i guess
I own arena for the 360
I guess when I'm feeling it I'll just play my bro
So no fightgames for tonight?
Everyone too scared?
Okay.
I get it.
I also realized lately that I easily use the return key the most out of everyone in the thread. It's actually starting to be a bit nuts, but it's the easiest way to type like I'm talking.

BATTLE RAIDOU 2008 WHY YOU SO GOOD
I'm actually on board the shill crew, it's a good classic Megaten, even this early on.

Next you'll be saying you watched dubbed anime
Well to be fair, zio is the only path that gets megidola
Damn I'm still playing through Raidou 2 actually. And that battle theme is so goood.
Everyone should be on the shill train. In fact at this rate, I'll shill for all the Devil Summoner games. RAIDOU KUZUNOHA VS SOULLESS ARMY AND RAIDOU KUZUNOHA VS KING ABADDON ARE BOTH $5 EACH. BUY THEM.
Get at least one wild arms.
Both are pretty fucking good, but 1 has better music overall, with the tradeoff being less to do in the postgame.
I'm a fan of three, but they don't got that.
Klonoa's good if you like hard platformers with really childish charm. That's what you're getting. I got 2 and it's great.
Dunno what the fuck Galaga Legions DX is tho
Also i heard wild arms 2 has hlariously bad translation

You ever play Pac Man Championship Edition DX. If not, 1) Get it and play it, it kicks ass, and 2) Legions DX is basically the same concept as that, but for Galaga. It makes the game more exciting and fast paced.

DEVIL SUMMONER SHILLING TIME
RAIDOU KUZUNOHA VS SOULLESS ARMY AND RAIDOU KUZUNOHA VS KING ABADDON ARE BOTH $5 EACH CURRENTLY ON PSN. BUY THEM.
Soulless Army: $5 on PSN currently
I'll be honest. This is a 6/10 game at best. It has problems. The combat is slow. AND TO MAKE IT WORSE, the PSN version is slower and the cutscene audio are way out of sync.
But Raidou is cool. All the characters are cool. The music is great. I finished it because I just liked everything except the combat.
King Abaddon: $5 on PSN currently
I'm about half way through this game. The combat is improved immensely. Actually makes it a pretty good ARPG. The last PS2 MegaTen game. Same as the first really, but with good gameplay. Actually if you can or only want to get one, GET THIS ONE.
Soul Hackers: $15 on eShop currently
This to me is a very good and pretty underrated MegaTen game. The west got it for the first time with the 3DS version. The game is basically "THIS IS WHAT THE 80s AND 90s THOUGHT THE FUTURE WILL BE LIKE" kind of sci-fi. The main character's summoning device is a GUMP. A GUN, WITH A COMPUTER TO SUMMON DEMONS ATTACHED. IT DOESN'T EVEN FUNCTION LIKE A GUN. If you haven't played a MegaTen this old, the first few hours might be a bit jarring for you. It is a good shortish
RPG. And one I will super recommend.

Eh. I'm not a fan of the color scheme. Too Xbox-y.

Actually now that I think about it, at pax there's always a room to go and play steel battalion with the controllers
And I've never gone to it

I want the game that is made for this. Simple, arcadey mecha fun. I also want the insane in depth one, but I also want my fun easy go game.
Literally everything about Katamari makes me not like it. I tried my hand at it on a friend's copy of it. Wasn't impressed.

Technically Raidou is in Soul Hackers as well

Then just buy Oratorio Tangram off XBLA and play it there.
And import Gundam for PS3, which doesn't require the twin sticks to fully appreciate.
Yep, it was super awesome! I ended up deciding my favorite station is science/comm station, with my friend's Surface tablet.

My friend generally has me on Nav and Comms the few times we played it. (undermanned so lots of doubling up).
That game is a fucking Star Trek simulator. We had a point where he was standing up, pacing, giving us all instructions as we wrecked shit. So much fun.

Yup. Soul Hackers has the best negotiation in Megaten.
Boy I love negotiations.
They should make a new Megaten game with SH's mechanics with some additions.
Guy was all alone when I killed his friends, so he wanted to join me.

As soon as the Devil Summoner gets a fantrans out, I will already be on it. ON IT SO HARD.
