why does everyone rave about Earthbound so much? i missed it the first time round and fired up the rom a couple of weeks ago.

only about 30 minutes into the game (just me in the team, daytime, going to library to get map, learning about phone boxes etc...) but it doesn't seem to impressive - the engrish is funny though

the wild dog became tame

Earthbound is an experience, you cant understand that with only 30 minutes of gameplay.

the dialogue, the locations, the people.. its like no other rpg.

play some more and be amazed laugh.gif

-Megadrive:
Biohazard Battle
Crack Down
Gunstar Heroes
M.U.S.H.A.
Zero Wing
Jammit

-SNES:
Shanghai III
Sanrio World Smash Ball
Super Smash TV
Clock Tower (Survival Horror, yes, a 16bit one)
Phalanx
Imperium (This could be on Megadrive instead???)
Super Robot Wars 3
Final Fantasy 6 (3)
Metal Combat (Scope game)

-NES:
Sweet Home
Duck Hunt (if you have a lightgun)

-Arcade (Final Burn Alpha X):
DoDonPachi
Gigawing
Street Fighter Alpha 3
X-Men Vs Street Fighter
Aliens Vs Predator
Mars Matrix
Super Pocket Fighters Mini Mix
Super Puzzle Fighters 2 Turbo

-Arcade (MAME only):
Metal Black
Gun Force 2
Layer Section/Gun Lock/Ray Storm (all the same game)
Zero Zone (maybe not in front of the g/f, LOL)

That's all I can think of for now.

While we're here, I want to start playing anew (to me) RPG, probably on the SNES, and I was wondering which one you guys think I should play. At the moment I'm looking at Rudra No Hihou (Treasure of The Rudras), Star Ocean and Treasure Hunter G, but I'm open to other suggestions, except for Final Fantasy 6 and Chrono Trigger (already completed them or close enough).

ThanX, BYEEEEE!!

Edit: added a couple more games.

Check out Dragon Quest Games smile.gif .
You need a translation ips. file if you can't read Japanese, but they are everywere smile.gif .

ThanX'n'STufF, but I don't seem to be able to get into the Dragon Quest gmes, any of them, I've tried to play them before, but nothing has ever grabbed me, like Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy 6 and Final Fantasy 8 (I know FF8 isn't a SNES game, but they all share certain qualities).

LA!

Also, I have complete ROM sets and all the .ips files already so any games anyone recommends, I'll already have.

VAMPX - I've searched google before, but I wasn't sure if I had to download xbox specific rom games....I assume any would work?

Which IRC channels/groups?  I've been on xbins and I can get the emulators, but I was looking for the games...I haven't played Secret of Mana for SNES in years!

there are no specific xbox dumped snes/sega/etc roms, they are just roms copied from the original media, usuable with any emulator for any platform.


telling people where to get roms would get me banned dry.gif
