SotN... Yup, gotta mention the GBA games as well.

I'll second the GBA Castlevania games. They're all excellent, though I never really got into Circle of the Moon. I love Harmony of Dissonance and Aria of Sorrow, however.

Another semi-obscure game: Phantom Dust, for the Xbox. Think a card game, but instead of cards, you collect mighty psychic powers. And the battle system is real-time. It's quite enjoyable.

I'm looking for more Cave Story style games, and I've seen the ones above mentioned. Thanks!

I'm after some good PAL games for my Saturn, any genre. The console isn't modded so they need to be available for sensible prices - first person to suggest Panzer Dragoon Saga or Shining Force III gets a thick ear. Here's the collection so far:

Clockwork Knight
Command & Conquer
Daytona USA: Championship Circuit Edition
NiGHTS
Sega Rally
Street Fighter Alpha
Street Fighter Alpha 2
Theme Park
Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3
Virtua Fighter
Worms
X-Men: Children of the Atom

[Inferno.]

Sega Touring Car Championship
Manx TT
Virtua Fighter II
Fighters Mega Mix
Last Bronx
Die Hard Arcade
Panzer Dragoon
Panzer Dragoon Zwei (II)

edit: Mod it for the swap trick. It's easy on both model 1+2 Saturns.

I was wondering if you guys could try to get roll away. it's one hell of a puzzle game with over 100 lv.

Arc the lad was a bit silly, but still very entertaining. A quality tactic/RPG game, as far as I'm concerned.

Thanks for the info, Elmdor. Since it's been 2 days now, I'm going to assume that nobody else wishes to express their opinion. I guess I'll get Arc the Lad.

i suggest y'all go out & buy Persona 3 while there's still a copy at your local store. It's a kick ass RPG with good fights, interesting story, and a dating sim. Very Japanese-y, without the hentai or too many short skirts.

Other than SMT, i suggest Xenosaga for its excellent story & deep religious symbolism. Want an action game? Devil May Cry has the entire boxset for about $25, if you can find it. The 3rd game kicks ass on so many levels. Gran Turismo 3 is still the class car simulation & racing game, get yourself a racing wheel for realism.

Lastly, Halo 3 & Gears of War, play them even if you don't own an Xbox360. Two best damn games of the year. Super Mario Galaxy is a close third and who cares who's fourth.

I'm kinda on a manic shooter kick at the moment. I know most of the big names (DoDonpachi, Giga Wing, Batsugun et all), but I also know there's a ton of lesser-known arcade games and doujin releases that I'm missing out on.

Which ones should I look into?

Mario Party has been said, maybe New Super Mario Bros, or the DS Mario Kart game. Unfortunately, I'm not that up to date on what the best NDS games are, so I probably can't help you out that much...

I was given a Best Buy gift card with enough money to get a Wii game. The thing is, I can't decide between Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles, Super Mario Galaxy, or Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn.... any ideas?

I'm currently searching for reviews of the games in the hopes that one will stand out, and I'll post an update via an edit once I find some, but in the meantime, I'd appreciate any suggestions.

ninja edit: @youngyoshi: Although there are some Castlevania games on the DS that are supposed to be pretty good.
