About
My name is Dave, I'm 23 and after a rather unfortunate turn of events my employer had to close their doors (Go Economy). I've been playing video games now for about 17 years. I started playing games on my fathers Atari 2600 and was hooked from there on out. I think my favorite system would be the Snes, because it had what I will probably always consider to be the greatest library of games.As far as games go I'll play pretty much anything once, but I'm especially fond of Rpgs, Strategy Rpgs, 2D fighters, and Platformers.

So I just earned somewhere around 1500 points on goozex this evening (1000 for Suikoden and another 500 for Rock band 1 Disc) and I was wondering if anyone had some game suggestions. And yes I know forums are that way------> , but they're still down.

And I know Suikoden is a classic, but for 1000 points to me it was worth it.

I know nothing on that site is a guarantee so I'd like to have a large list of things picked out in my mind ahead of time. I'd really like to get some rpgs and plaformers that I missed out on last generation, preferably for the ps1/2.

Some things on my mind already:
Xenosaga 1-3
Dragonquest 8
Star Ocean 3
Okami
Ico
SotC

Thanks in advance.

I also hought that this should be shared, because I found it rather entertaining.

How many games can you get with those points?
If only 1.
Dragon Quest 8.
Xenosaga 1-3 (I'm assuming they're the same price as the singular games as you listed them together)
SoTC
In that order. I know SoTC is a cult classic (Undeservedly imo), but you'll get more (and better imo) gameplay from DQ8 than you ever will from SoTC, the same goes for Xenosaga 1-3. I liked SoTC, but it's only about a 8/10. Where as XS is 3 games, and DQ8 is probs the best Old School style RPG on the PS2.
xenosaga 1 and 2 are 150 each and 4 is 450.
Dragonquest 8 is 200
and SotC is 350

so that's a total of 1300 for 5 games
xenoasaga 3 not 4 ^
If you're going for a Xenosaga, you'll be best of getting all 3, I have Xenosaga 2 only thanks to being European. and It's a 7/10. but will be better when played as it's meant to be as part of the trilogy.

So yeah.
I'd only spring for a Xenosaga if I was going to get all 3. so if you're not gunna maybe
DQ8, SotC and Ico are good choices. Especially as SotC and Ico will have increasingly greater re-sale value in the future.
Robot Chicken is going to be doing something with that Obama action figure real soon.
Katamari!

Get it.
That Obama figure with the katanas...brilliant.

Sorry, for some reason I pretty much skipped over every platformer from this era and only played one or two RPGs. Have you tried Disgaea?
I dislike Star Ocean 3

I recommend Okami, Ico, and SotC
