I'm inclined to agree. I don't think Xenobia was sent there to take Lemia's place so much as Ghaleon tried to recruit Lemia on to his side and failed, so he had to remove her. Obviously it would not be a good idea for Lemia to be missing, so he had Xenobia replace her. Not the most ideal candidate o...

Besides, didn't WD purposefully pull the games from the shelfs (actually, that's wrong, I should say stopped production) to keep the games a collectors item? I recall hearing somewhere that they didn't want it to end up on the Greatest Hits shelf I can't pretend to know what WD's business plan was,...

Yep. Legend did over 100k. Might have been around 120k, though I can't check at the moment. It's really late, but I just wanted to correct something. Sequels will likely never outsell the first game, when you consider how the games are connected by story. I've have to disagree with this. System life...

I wouldn't lay it solely on the reviews. Given that even the people who've played the game agree that Dragon Song is not a particularly remarkable piece of work, there's not much incentive for people to rush out and buy it. Word of mouth counts for something too.

95% of Disney is pure evil bent on wolrd domination and corruption. Hey, hey. Don't make me zap you with my third eye. Kingdom Hearts is quite fun. I wouldn't count having Disney characters in it as a negative anymore than some people hold it against KH having Final Fantasy characters in it. (A fel...

I basically pruned all the games I've played into a top thirty list based on how much I enjoyed them at the time I first played them, how much I would enjoy them now, and how much I think they contributed to breaking new ground or setting a standard. And then I worked from there, steadily trimming t...

The lack of online play doesn't really bother me because I quite frankly suck. I'm currently the second best person in my office (we're having lunch hour tournaments), but I've played against really good players before and I know if I go online they'll make me look like a pansy butterfly. I get easi...

Hehe... Sounds like fun, though it's so hard to order them up correctly! Not to mention that my #15 utterly dates how long I've been playing RPGs, and it wasn't even the first I played. Here goes... 1. Phantasy Star II (Genesis/GBA) 2. Shadow Hearts (PS2) 3. Baten Kaitos (GC) 4. Skies of Arcadia (Dr...

I knew the date was coming and it still feels too soon. I'm so behind on this series. :P I'll probably do my usual thing and pick it up when it gets cheap so I can add it to my backlog (which sadly has not gotten any smaller this year thanks to all my overtime).

Yep. There are people at my work who've blown PS2s, also launch units. It's generally a good idea to never buy a system at launch because the hardware hasn't been fully stressed yet and there could still be issues with it. You can't tell from the outside, but if you open your systems up you'll see t...

Humans being the unimaginative creatures that we are... tend to name things after how they look or after people (when it comes to real world place names). I think Winddale works. It's a dale, it's windy. After a while people might start calling the place Winddale. Or if you like the language to evol...

It's not a bad trailer, but I think it would be a good idea to get the names more or less finalized before putting them out for people to see. You may want to change them after people give their input, but it feels sloppy to start out with placeholders. By the way, I'd ditto what Kizyr said about ch...

You could look at it this way... we used to pay around $60 for certain games back in the SNES/Genesis days. My copy of Phantasy Star IV ran me $99 brand new the day it came out. Except now the costs are for development instead of manufacturing.
