you guys are all nuts...


for the record:
* of course Jedi Power Battles sucks.... if you play it on Playstation.
* Castlevania 64 is one of the best N64 titles (not that it's saying much)


worst games I've bought/played:

Superman 62 (N64)
Banjo Kazooie (N64)
Wild Metal (Dreamcast)
Blue Stinger (Dreamcast)
any PS1/N64 era wrestling title
Young Indiana Jones (Genesis)

There are worse games but I haven't been suckered into playing them yet.

I f***ing wanted to kill Tidus (pronounced Tee-dus) about 5 minutes into the game. I liked a lot of other things about the game, the battle system was great. But the lack of an overworld and leveling up, plus a sh**ty main character, was kind of detrimental to the game's quality in my opinion. I also don't like that the Final Fantasy games are going in this super-cool ultra-hip futuristic direction (XI and CC excluded). I truly prefer the more medival (sp?) setting like 6 or 9.
lmao, Actually The lack of Overworld and Tidus almost made me NOT like FFX. It took me awhile to get in to it, but the story eventually pulled me in, that and I liked alot of the other characters, Tidus the exception. I still Feel that 6 is the best Final Fantasy of the bunch, and probably always will be.

For me, I didn't like the Characters or the Story. I was sooo excited to get the game and play it, and by the time I was half way through, I just couldn't stand it anymore. I liked 8 better, and I also like 10.
Noooooooooo, say it isn't so, Grunger Kittie! FFVIII was horrible, and so was FFX!
Hehe I can't help it. I liked the characters of 8 more than anything about it though. (Especially Selphie... she's cute and likes to blow things up. that's right up my alley)

Understandable. I'm not one of those assholes that tries to say otherwise. Everyone has their own taste in video games (and a lot I don't agree with aka Vice City) and I don't intend on whining and complaining.

Final Fantasy is just sweet. Story.

WCW/NWO: World Tour, WCW/NWO: Revenge, Wrestlemania 2K, No Mercy = greatest wrestling games, ever. Oh, the fun times that were had. I remember one time in No Mercy, me and two of my buds had a triple threat ladder match that would not end. We all just kept beating the hell out of each other, and no one could get up the ladder. We finally stopped after, I guess 3 hours. Good times, good times.

Hell yes! Nothing says beauty like sticking a sword into a Redead!

I only like the Final Fantasies that came before FFVII. After it got off the SNES, I stopped paying attention to them. Just never struck me right again.

If I were to name the one game series that I am owned by, it would Star Fox. Oh yes. Star Wars with anthros? Excellent. Blowing up giant brains in your free time? Even better!

Wrestling games aren't games. They're like sports games, the same game over and over with updated stats, but if that's what you like...

Actually, they had new features, better story modes, and they up the CAW details, and sometimes they rehaul the engine/change the gameplay. It's not just updated stats/people.

Which is why they should've just had Street Fighter II and that's it. We don't need Street Fighter Gamma Kappa Delta XXII.

Agreed. They'll realize what they're doing to the series and stop eventually...hopefully.

Anyone remember Burger Time for the NES? I was about to commit suicide when I realized what I'd spent my money on. (And I was only like 10 at the time) Good thing my mom hid all my razor blades and ropes.

Err..yes we do, Street Fighter Alpha was a great game, and "Capcom vs" games offer more characters from various classic Capcom titles

And don't knock the WWE games, there far from "repetitive"

I have the freedom of opinion. I think Wrestling games are horrible. That doesn't mean they are. And nothing beats the old school Street Fighter II.

Agreed with respect to the old SFII (or maaybe Turbo too) -- I really loved that game.

And most wrestling games are pretty bad, agreed, though I have enjoyed the Smackdown games on PS1/2 (haven't played the N64/GC/Xbox games)...those were pretty good, I thought. And the old Royal Rumble (and RAW, maybe) on SNES was pretty fun too, for some inexplicable reason. Good, no, but definitely fun.
