What a fantastic game. Both the Campaign and the Multiplayer are excellent. I would recommend it.

Mine will come next week. I've ordered the UK version

However, I think the airport mission is unnessecarily violent. I personally don't have a problem with that but it will continue the debate on how games can provoke little kids to go on a killing frenzy.

For this exact reason they give you the option to skip this mission (when you first start the game it tells you there is a mission that some find disturbing and to click "yes" if you'd like to skip it). I don't have a problem with this mission but if parents don't want their kids seeing things like this then they should not buy them Mature games.

Ditto. The ESRB exists for a reason. It allows parents to quickly determine if a game is appropriate for their kid without even looking too deeply into the content of the game. Also, 9 times out of 10, kids can differentiate between reality and fantasy, and understand what happens in that mission is definitely not the right thing to do. I didn't even shoot much the first half of that mission because I found it a little unnerving.

I have exactly the same opinion like you guys. I just meant that this game might be used as a reference for the next-gen of violent games.

In Germany there are games that are 18+ but even these are sometimes censored. So I had to buy a UK version Furthermore, the UK version costs 35€ and the German version costs 50-60€.

Megaman X3

Also, does anyone know why in the ending it says that X's fate is to kill Zero? Perhaps I just need to play the rest of them, but from the look of the latter megaman games, it seems as if he has not done so.

Beat Megaman X ~ Surprisingly in this game, Zero was killed by Vile. Which completely destroys Megaman X3's and every other Megaman X storyline unless Zero gets rebuilt.

Edit (6:09pm, December 6th, 2009)
Beat Megaman X2 ~ Sigma put Zero back together in hopes of having him destroy X. Sigma battle was much easier to me than the first one was.

End credits of Atelier Iris: Eternal Mana are running right now XD

Great PS2 2D RPG, emphasizes alchemy and synthesizing -- enormous item list. Lacks weapon advancement, but fun battle system options. Totally would recommend. Spent about 40 hours total, didn't do EVERYTHING, but close maybe.

^ Ditto.

We've been playing together for a month or two. Badass game, if you're into item-centric 2D Japanese RPGs for the PS2. I beat it also.

2 player?

I just conquered Syndicate.



It is my absolute favorite game. I hope to create my own inspired 3D remake someday.

Ever played Radiata Stories? Only Anime-style RPG I've played for PS2 but I enjoyed when I had the time to play it.

It's been awhile since I updated on my games beaten... I've beaten quite a few before this, but

Modern Warfare 2 is complete!
I did beat Chrono Trigger not too long ago, maybe a month or so... Well beat it again...

Finished Modern Warfare 2 on veteran. Shit was intense.

I beat MGS2 the other night, I forgot just how awesome the game is. I don't care that you play as Raiden, the game is still great; the design, the other little details like missing with a bullet and catching the attention of a guard, the story, the controls and everything else is perfect.
Now then back to FF1 & FF2 Dawn of Souls I have to beat it by Christmas .

Looks somewhat like X-Com: Apocalypse

I'm on it, right now. It's damn frustrating on veteran (especially the Favela level).

+1

Just as fun the second time. ( Regular - Veteran )
