Ah portal. The perfect game. There isn't a single thing wrong with it. It is amazing from begining to end. Basically it's a puzzle solving game, you have a gun that creates 2 portals (see above) you can walk through the portals and move objects through them. Use to solve. Thats it. Portal was concepted as a game called Narbacular Drop by a few students at a tech college for a contest. Valve caught wind of it and hired them to flesh out the concept and what we got was portal. The game is simple, the only character is you and GLADOS, a HAL like AI who is walking you through a series of tests. Portals comedy is so pitch black that your friendly neighborhood goth kid could add it to their wardrobe. it's part of the orange box or seperate on steam and the 2 market places, pick it up if you've never played it cause as i said, it is perfect

Portal is an excellent game. Good choice sir. I started to make another post for The Orange Box as a whole, but never got around to it.

Space Channel 5 was awesome. I have Special edition for PS2; Part 2 was even better than the first.

Wild 9 and Silent Bomber on the PSOne were highly underrated in my opinion. I wish they did some kind of remake on them or something. They were great.

Hey,

Anyone has the game. I would like to know if its worth it to play.

Thanks.

I'm gonna throw a nice 90's title into the mix with

Super Mario RPG



by far my favorite game on the SNES

[Sagacious Koreo]

Deadly Premonition


It's so ridiculous and stupid that it's awesome!! It's the most awesomest piece of crap game ever.

Jet Moto, and Jet Moto 2 for Sega were about as awesome a race game as you can get... Masala the african great was a dominant force.


fusion frenzy for xbox is the greatest mini game title of all time.

NHL2010 for ps3 is an awesome game...greatest hockey game since NHL 95 on Sega.

For me the game I favor with it's seemingly endless replay value is Final Fantasy Tactics for PS1, Here we are 12 years after it's NA release and I can still load it up and play 12-14 hr days, the game is different yet the same everytime you play. It also looks great on my 61". Sure wish I could find a few more of the old PS1 games for my collection...

JetMoto was PlayStation only. Do you mean a different game?

I logged over 90 hours on FFT before I finished it. Powered up several of my favorite characters, did all the sidequests, and even had the patience to steal the game's strongest super-item. It's some kind of perfume accessory, but I nicknamed it 'The Undertaker's Medicine' for it's Always have Reraise effect. Effectively rendered one of your characters invincible.

Could anyone here spare time to review the new Final Fantasy game and Battlefield 2. I am considering to pick up a game tomorrow but haven't made up my mind yet.

They are called Chantage and can only be used by females - there is however an Angel ring that the males can use but it is nowhere as efficient as the Chantage.

That is quite a game collection you have there, would love to get my hands on some of those rare PS1 and PS2 games

It's grown considerably in recent years; funny what happens when you're not a poor college student anymore. I'm probly going to buy another game collection expansion this summer.

It's always worth checking GameStop's shelves for rare titles. I then usually look to ebay and Amazon for the old games.

I don't know what your money situation is like, but you can probly still find many of the rare ones at decent prices.

Borderlands!

Here's an old one that I couldn't remember the title to. Found it though:
