that said, im so debating Phantasy Star 2 for all the wrong reasons. it was my first real RPG, and if there's good achievements, im damn tempted to get it & grudge through that one just to see who else can...there's a certain level of difficulty old school RPGs could have where mere persistence might not be enough to finish them, and this is very much one of those.

is that so much to ask

At least Capcom and Namco have realized there are ways to make it in the West apart from crawling up Microsoft's ass. (Sticking to what they've always done instead of pursuing some myth of the "Western Gamer" is a good one.)

"Wah! I love XYZ! I want to play XYZ!"
"XYZ is available for Console 2000."
"Wah! I don't wanna Console 2000! Never never never!"
See also, JRPGs and PS3 owners.

"Blerg! Buy everything! Disregard quality and personal preference and buy everything! Blaagh!"
Honestly, wishing for games to appear on the console you already own (or have elected to purchase) is a perfectly valid desire. Buying every console on the market to snag a few exclusives? That's like killing a fly with a bazooka.
p.s. Most 360 RPGs suck...I think 360 fans are overcompensating. Any serious RPG fan is playing on handhelds these days.

Yeah, there's nothing wrong with wishing for games to appear on your currently owned console, but being stubborn to the point of absolute refusal to acquire the device which delivers the content you want seems fairly backwards to me.

It seems really strange that they'd launch just on the 360 platform. It really seems like they're leaving money on the table unless this is part of Sony's vision of only wanting "interesting" games on PSN. If so then I guess that anything retro is uninteresting perhaps? Don't know...

I think you owe CZ a great, big apology, Mike :) And Sega owes PS3 owners one as well.

Also, everyone who's raving for online play.. do keep in mind, Backbone's network code for these Genesis roms is TERRIBLE, and at least in Sonic 2 and Streets of Rage 2, it was nearly unplayable due to lag. and I have a reasonably good connection.

Gun Star is on my PSP so I dont need it :)

"...Rise from your grave". Oh man! Gotta love that Genesis sound chip >_>

God, if I win the lottery, I'm going to buy SEGA. Re-release the dreamcast for $59.99, get my dev teams to make
Phantasy Star V
Streets of Rage 4
ShenMue 3
....yeah.

I couldn't really care less about all of the others, though, since my roommate has Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection. I can just play them all on that if I REALLY feel the need to.

SOLD!
