Will check. I just added Crimson Skies on my list, because I remember playing it at a friend's so I just bought it.

If you can find the Otogi games they are totally worth it. I think they are hard to find these days though.
Edit: Hmm, Amazon has both for 30ish each. They are really good and worth it for that price, I'd argue.

I'm sorry but that's insane. I love those games but don't get it at that price. The person selling them is just an e-Shop. Money is not going back to From Software.ultron87 said:

What would be a fair price to buy Super Metroid for the snes?
I want to get into fighting games.
I have a like 7-8 friends that play SSFIV AE, but about half play PC and about half play on PS3.
So really, I'm torn which I should get. Also, without buying any extra peripherals (pads or whatnot, I have a gaming controller that works on my PC) can I expect to completely suck? Is it necessary to have a pad to do well?
How hard is it to get into fighting games? Most of my friends are rather experienced. I haven't played a fighting game since Tekken when it came out for playstation.
Any advice for someone trying to learn quickly? Should I spend a lot of time playing against the AI, or maybe just jump straight into online play?
Any and all advice/suggestions/guidance is highly appreciated. Thanks.

They play out more like acts in a larger story than self contained episodes, I'm afraid. So you'd want to start playing episode 1 and continue from there.Roto13 said:
Edit: But if you enjoy adventure games I'd recommend getting the remakes of the first two, Secret of Monkey Island and LeChuck's Revenge first.
Unless you've played those, either way, the beauty of the remakes is that you can toggle the new content on and off, so you can get a pretty faithful experience to the original non-altered original titles on the fly.
I'm toying with whether I want to take my first steps into the Saints Row series. I've heard good things, I've got a bit of a free-roaming silliness itch, I think it'll be scratched by the games.
One minor aspect of the GTA games (and similar ilk) that I've appreciated was the fact that they came with a paper map in the box; I liked to pause and plan routes rather than rely on satnav to get around, and the onscreen map was a bit fiddly to work with. I was a little dissapointed that LA Noire didn't come with one.
Does Saints Row have an in-box map, or is it solely ingame?

The silver controller with the new shitty useless transformer D-pad you mean? only wireless.
CozMick said:Ok gaf I need help to maintain a healthy Playstation 3.
And I have 2 questions I hope you can answer:
1. A fan, Pointed towards the front, back or sides to keep it cool or pointed away from the PS3 to reduce dust?
2. Standby or switch off at the plug when not in use?
Thanks
1-a big ass air purifier in the room is the only way to fight dust.
2-iirc PS3 don't draw power when in Standby mode ( well it takes a small amount of power just for the led red light, but that it not even for the USB ports unlike the 360), so both options are fine.

Which is the best company to buy SNES USB controllers? Amazon has Gtron, Retrolink, and Tomee. I bought a Saturn controller by Gtron and it sucks HARD.
Should I not have purchased a 16:9 monitor? I've never had a problem getting sick with most games (Marathon on XBLA being the only exception, but that made almost everyone sick). Anyways, ever since I bought my 16:9 (1920x1080) monitor I've been getting sick from more games. It's typically an FOV issue and I understand how that works, but my last monitor was 16:10 (1920x1200) and I never had any issues. There are a lot of PC games that won't let you adjust the FOV or at least the workarounds are less than ideal (I'm looking at you, Singularity). Is there anything else I can do or should I consider getting another 16:10 monitor? Will that make a difference?
Well now I'll probably never play Tales of Monkey Island. xP
You can add money with a credit card in $5 increments. Which honestly is kind of stupid because now that everything is $x.99 and you have to pay sales tax from the eShop, you'll have a balance in your wallet forever.Birbo said:

Turn off any scaling/stretching options in the driver control panel and try playing the games with pillarbox borders, you can use Nvidia's resize desktop option to create some custom resolutions that show up in most modern games, looks kind of ugly, maybe use some side masking if it bothers you.

Harsh! It's a marked improvement on the standard D-pad in my opinion. I have an arcade stick for fighters, but I'm having no troubles playing stuff like Castlevania with it - even the directional combos for spells.

Better looking loot. The good stuff doesn't drop if your character's level is low. Just make sure you don't forget to level up your fighting skills before everything else and you'll be fine.sykoex said:

Vanquish is now on its way.
What would be your second choice?
What would be your second choice?
I've just started the first Rune Factory (have completed the first cave), but I'm confused about one aspect of progression: How can I upgrade my watering can when I need it each day to keep my crops healthy? Leo takes it away for two days to improve it, and I can't quite see what I should do to crops to keep them going during that time. Is it actually safe to skip a day? Or do I have to hope I get lucky and the second day is rainy?
(I'd also like to reiterate my Saints Row question, since I'm likely to go shopping tomorrow! Is there a paper map in the box, or is it all in-game?)

I don't know about 1,2,3, or 6 but Enslaved was great. One of the best games I've played in awhile. I thought the story was great, the dialogue was great, the graphics and level design were great, the gameplay was great, etc. And Vanquish was awesome too. It wasn't a technical total package of perfection but the gameplay and graphics were top notch and it was a lot of fun.Graffgor said:

I bought a retail Dawn of War 2 Gold online yesterday so I'm expecting it soon. I'm going to activate it on Steam when it arrives, if I install it from the disc and then activate it will I still need to download it off Steam?

So, I bought a 40gig PS3 a while back, and I didn't think I'd be running out of room, but I am. What do I do? Do I have to transfer everything to a bigger PS3? Can I store stuff on an external thingy? Do I have to delete things? Thanks
Also these two guys above me need their questions answered too.
