Yeah, I'm like that, too. Most new stuff fails to catch me. It's all war, sports and sandbox games nowadays, and I want nothing to do with any of that. And FPS games. Some are okay but, yeah...not really my cup of tea.

And, oh yeah:

Metal Slug 5 - MAME

I can't find 6 anywhere.

So you all guys are retro gamers???
you're becoming old...


just kidding!

I think we go back to those games because nowadays, new games have lost the "feeling" ... the "challenge".... the "soul"

somehow, videogames have turned a "money maker industry"...
so nobody cares for good games... only money...

I'm playing:

* Counter Strike (PC)
* Command & Conquer - Red Alert 2 - Yuri's Revenage (PC)
* Unreal Tournment (PC)
* Bloody Roar 4 (PS2)

as you can see, most of what I play are multiplayer games, and most of them are online/LAN games

I totally agree. the nowadays-games has so much powerful graphics and sounds engine. but they focus on selling the game not how the gamers feel

Everything today does seem soul less, especially since technology has gotten more advanced. Today's games (most of them) rely on graphics and specs. Honestly, when I hear all these gamers now, who got into games when PS2 or the PS was out, they all talk about the specs of a game, it's graphics or, basically anything isn't remotely talking about a game's fun factor.

Grand Theft Auto 4 is coming out. Need I say more?

If I reinvent Valis Coliseum into a plataform game called Valis V, with cell shading sprites, 3D effects and two players you'll be happy? I think yes.

Now playing Samurai Shodown 3, 4 and 5, you know, I need to feel the escence of a good swords fighting game.

you're right. Graphics, music & sound-effects are important for every gamer. but the point here, games-developing companies focus on those effects and completely forgot about what players need of feeling. as what Red Spectra and Soldier said, those new games with great graphics are "soul-less"

well, I'm playing
To Heart 1, 2, X rated japanese version (I can read )

and a lot of doujin games (mostly not hentai one) like .... hmmm
raiden sphere.
bbb

Damn! You touched an interesting point....

possibly we will be happy, but that will depend a lot on the game...
I mean, the story...

If you only sell it to get more money, we will hate you...

Remember, I'm not Telenet, so I love the Valis saga, I'm not interesed in make a hentai game for money... and after I have tha hate of all the fans. And... VC will be free, I don't want to make money... only want to rebuilt Telenet Japan into "NeoTelenet" and be the boss, but first, delete all the Valis X data.

Story... Hmmm, I guess you enjoy the story of Valis Coliseum, isn't a 3D game or cell shading sprites, but will be full of "soul" and that's matters, right?.

Oh yeah, I playing Ninja Gaiden Black on X-Box and Valis 2 - The Fantasm Soldier X68000 version on PC, downloaded from evilReiko's webpage of course, thanks a lot.

If you can, give Bleach DS a shot.

The games engine is somewhat of a combination of the Samurai Showdown and Guilty Gear series.

Treasure did such an amazing job with that game.

Recently playing Super Robot War J everyday on my cell phone...will probably go back to Wii after getting HOD 2+3

Devil May Cry 3 - PS2
Eternal Sonata - X360
Valis III - Gen
Valis I - Gen
Contra - NES
Super Mario Bros 3 - NES

Retro games rock

FFCC: Ring of Fates

It wasn't just not crap, its frickin' awesome!

Full Spectrum Warrior - Ten Hammers (PS2)
It's so realistic, I have a new appreciation for what soldiers in Iraq go through every day. It's basically a real-time puzzle game.

Im was playing Kendo Rage.(snes)

It kinda looked like a poor-man's Valis.

Still pretty awesome, though.

Oh yeah look at my commentary:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3R72_5DXtc

that Kendo Rage game seems so cool, and funny too and it's so much similiar to Valis

it's like playing Valis while funny-mode is switched ON from the options menu

I need to play that again.

but yeah,the game is insane,basically take the random elements from Samurai Pizza cats and Bobobobobo and mix Valis with it,and you get a parody

in other words,this game is meant to parody the Valis-style genre.lol

I'm currently playing SSBB! Shame Lip didn't make it as a playable character...

There are a handful of characters that would have been better than...oh, I dunno, 4 dudes who play like Fox McCoud. It would have been awesome if they had gotten some Golden Sun characters, Megaman, and Bomberman.

:: sigh ::

But, honestly, this is a topic for a thread of it's own, lol.

And, yeah:

Shaman King: Master Of Spirits - GBA
Capcom Mini Mix - GBA
Astro Boy: Omega Factor - GBA
