Just before the forum death, there was a thread I was expecting to turn into a bucket of awesome, so here it is again.

Request a game (or game-related device) if you can't find it through the usual channels. Try to stick to rare stuff. Maybe a forum member can hook you up.

Request 2 for Vagrant Story. Apparently it's good?

I want Choaniki for the Saturn
Well hell I'm interested in Japanese Saturn games in general(Provided I don't already own them and that they are NOT Adventure games..ugh)

I do have Suikoden 1 though. It lacks a manual but it is otherwise complete..US version of course.

J Allard is too hip to come here and listen to your feedback so I'm afraid not. He's got, like, a fitted jacket and earrings. And he's totally best friends with The Killers and Frodo.

Will swap Official Hot Coffee Enabled GTA: SA(RARE L@@K!) for PAL Guardian Heroes

Wait I mean Vandal Hearts. My bad.

Also where's winker?

Secondly I have monies from my high paying job.

I wouldn't mind playing Rez for PS2, but I don't want to pay a fortune for it.

An unscrupulous person could "obtain" the slightly blurrier dreamcast version with not too much effort.

Just throwing that out there.

It's blurrier?

Someone review the PS2 version. It's definitely worse, I'm sure of it.

And by the way, has anyone properly reviewed Cave Story?

Mr. Mechanical · Posts: 1890

Well, I don't have a Dreamcast see...

The PS2 version has a better framerate overall without any of the slowdown you get now and then on the Dreamcast but the Dreamcast has anti-aliasing where the PS2 doesn't.
Mr Mechanical I might possibly be able to pick up the PAL PS2 version if thats any help but it depends if the place I got mine from has sold its other 3 used copies recently.

Mr. Mechanical · Posts: 1890

PAL? Would I be able to play that on an American PS2 without modding anything?

dark steve · Posts: 3002

..why the hell not?

Also, buying a dreamcast is still cheaper than the alternative.

Panoptic · Posts: 291

Uh. If someone has FTP space, I could upload an image of Vagrant Story. Suikoden II as well (I have the first one, but it's being borrowed atm). Also have Valkyrie Profile on the topic of PS1 RPG's.

Because it's from a different country?

Hey everyone. I may be able to locate PAL Vagrant Story and Um Jammy Lammer.

Maztorre · Posts: 1175

I think you need a PAL PS2 or have your NTSC one modded, Sony region encode all their PS2 stuff IIRC.

The HOT COFFEE OMG GTA offer still stands dudes. You'll regret it the day you want to see clusters of brown polygons grinding into each other*.

*Using a 3rd party code altering device.

winkerwanker · Posts: 2414

What is this HOT COFFEE thing anyway?

pillowking · Posts: 223

Was there ever an event where during the promotion of opening of Metal Geat Solid 2- Hideo Kojima was playing the game himself, with the Snake mold redone with a model of himself in the game. Did this really happen? Is there pics? I could have sworn I've seen this somewhere.

Ah. Well don't bother then because I'm not interested in modding anything.

What dark steve is trying to tell you is. Buy a Dreamcast for 15-20 bucks. Then burn a copy of Rez. That'll cost you at least 30$ less than the PS2 alternative. And also the Dreamcast doesn't need to be modded to play CD-Rs.

Also Dreamcast had a truckload of other awesome games.

dark steve · Posts: 3002

Yeah!

And $30 less is an understatement.

It's here for 50$. Though that does sound somewhat expensive. I'm not sure it's a good price.

Could we be a little less blatent about the piracy?

Edit: That goes for you too, mister.

Yeah, guys. Try to keep that out of the forums, please.

dark steve · Posts: 3002

Well I was TRYING

Vagrant Story doesn't need to be pirated. Go buy it. It's like 15 bucks. Go here http://search.ebay.com/vagrant-story_W0QQfkrZ1QQfromZR8

Okay I won't post about pirated stuff. Arr.

LegatoB · Posts: 1546

You're too fast for my smartass remarks.

Mr. Mechanical · Posts: 1890

I wouldn't mind owning a legit version.

Edit-Okay, you guys are pretty quick on the uptake with the edits there. My post makes no sense now.

burnsro · Posts: 50

It makes sense to me and legitbob.

Now you can sell it on ebay and reap the rewards.

Also, I would not mind a Killer 7 Poster.

Same sort of thing for me. This is the first time something of mine has turned into a collector's item like that.

I clued my friend in on Valkyrie Profile's value the other week. Blew his mind.

I'll take any "weird" or "interesting" Saturn and Dreamcast games that no one wants. Especially if its Guardian Heroes and Burning Rangers.

Well, how much would that REZ cost? since i want it myself (just borrowing it from a friend atm) finally.

i have a japanese Guardian Heroes that I'd happily trade for an NTSC English Guardian Heroes, on account of my not being able to read Japanese.

I think it was around £12. I'll try and have a look there again on Saturday.
