It's quite good I'd say, nice climate and music althought it's quite linear. Might not be liked by everybody, like ICO or Shadow of the Colossus. I'd recommend you trying out the demo first if you can; I myself like it very much. Uncharted on the other hand is brilliant

I forgot. I have the 3 demos (Underground, small preview and the other one) installed and haven't tried any of them yet.

Let us know how "arcade accurate" it is? I hate the Metal Slug 3 for the XBOX, limited continues and you have to restart the levels when you're continuing a game. Metal Slug 3 is my FAVORITE Metal Slug game, and they RUINED the XBOX version! ![]() Metal Slug 4/5 on the Playstation 2 seem "ok" but neither versions are that good *arcade versions*... ![]() I have Metal Slug X on the Playstation, IIRC it can't run in any Playstation emulator, but I'm sure most people would say, "Why do you want to play a Playstation port when you can play the arcade version in MAME?" I like to play games I own, would be my best reply...? ![]()

Seems very accurate, but the PAL conversion is pretty awful (a problem you shouldn't have). They didn't even bother to center the screen, causing a huge border at the bottom on PAL tv's....
ah well, its good otherwise. I'll try to do a more detailed review later. Metal Slug X PS1 should work in an emulator... afaik ePSXe should be able to run it. |

Well, like you probably have noticed, there's been a lack of new games here, mainly because of a couple of reasons:
1. Uni 2. Playing long games (NWN2 MotB, PSP emulator stuff) 3. Lack of funds So yeah, the only new acquirements were MotB, not included on the picture here, and Super Puzzle Fighter 2 Deluxe Turbo Extreme for Matching Service, or whatever it's called :P Also, there's a 360 in the house here, and I really like the system, that's for sure. Unfortunately I borrowed it from a colleague in order to test my new monitor, a nice Iiyama B2403WS. As you can see on the picture it got with quite a lot of games, also, that's exactly the reason why I don't have a 360 myself. There's only 2 games which I would buy myself, Mass Effect and Gears of War being the killer games, the rest being filler. Seeing how Bioshock runs better on my PC than on a 360, I can exclude this one from the killers as well ![]() Super Puzzle Fighter I haven't really tried yet, I know it works, that's it. I just wanted to have it for kicks since it's a pretty rare game and I got a good deal on it on Ebay. I'll probably get the PSP version eventually though. Those who have seen the first pics of this thread might notice something else though. That's the entire setup of my room. In fact, it ain't even the same room anymore since we moved. So I finally got to the point of getting some extra room to put all the games I have. And for the close watchers, note how the PS2 wasn't the first console being able to stand up straight

![]() That, and the fact that the former was released a bit sooner.

Ooh Ratchet and Clank! A MUST HAVE for the PS3!
Virtua Fighter 5 is probably good as well! Have fun with those 4 games!

I was stupid and purchased Star Trek Encounters, I'd have had more fun buying a 3 meat Little Caesar's Pizza and a two liter bottle of coke!
I wrote a scathing review. Avoid this game!

But oh well ...First I want to see if I'll reach lvl 60 at all. If I get bored of it half-way through and never even reach lvl 60 it would be wasted money.
