star ocean the last hope
i just dont have an xbox 360
Let me explain...
There are some games that are made and you hear so many good things about, but for some reason you never got around to playing the game. I want to hear about all the games that you would like to play but never did.
Here's mine:
Final Fantasy VI
I've heard so much about this game, mostly from the older school Final Fantasy gamers. I wish I would have picked this game up when I had the chance to. My friend offered me her extra copy of FF Anthology (a very long time ago), but I didn't take it. Why? I really don't know. I regret not doing so.
Mother 3
Okay, now this game is one that hasn't seen a US release, so it's understandable that I haven't got to play it yet. I want to so badly though. I hear great things about it, and I've watched the "Let's Play Mother 3" vids on Youtube. It looks great, and I really don't understand why Nintendo isn't bothering to ship it to the US. Maybe because they think there's not a big enough fanbase...
Metal Gear Solid
I've played MGS 3 and I have MGS 4 (not played yet, but I at least have it). I didn't think that I would be a fan of the series when MGS was first launched, so I skipped that title. I really wish I would have given it a shot.
Katamari Damacy
This is a game that really looks like something that I would be into playing. It's uniquely weird and I really like that kind of stuff. Also, the gameplay looks like it would be simple, yet addictive (kind of like how Tetris has a simple concept, but it's very addictive).
Hmm...that's all I can really think of at the top of my head.
So how about everybody else? Are there games that you haven't played yet but hear good things? Well, list 'em out!

Infinite Undiscovery
Fate has told me time and again how this game is great. I wanted to try it, but I forgot about it... I guess. Hmm, maybe one day I'll get around to it...
I'm going through a bit of a The World Ends With You phase right now.Click THERE:
I would have to sayyy...
Metal Gear Solid 4: because I dont have a PS3, I don't plan on playing it any time soon, but I always hear great things about the MGS series.
Persona 4: Another great and widely acclaimed game that I have yet to play, this is also because I no longer own a PS2 for it, but I am excited for the Persona 3 Portable game that will be released for the PSP to make up for my lack of P3/P4 experience.
Final Fantasy XII: I tried playing it like once or twice back when I was first starting in college, but other things (girls, booze, frat parties, sometimes homework, etc) got in the way and I never really got into the gameplay, so I gave up on it. I've heard great things about it though.

I cannot agree with these two more. I heard reviews of MGS4 that said it had exceedingly long cutscenes, and a plot that required you to know every little detail about the MGS universe in order to fully understand it. I don't know how much of the latter is true, but it definitely turned me off, even though I had previously played MGS 1, 2, and 3.
Persona 4, on the other hand, I found out about from the Endurance Run that Giant Bomb did a little while ago, which it seems like they just finished (I haven't been keeping up, as I got into it a bit late). A goon in the LP forum of Something Awful mentioned this, and it's hilarious. It's a game I've always wanted to look up, but I could never imagine putting in the 100 or so hour investment into playing it.
And one more:
Devil May Cry 4. It's been in my Gamefly cue for the longest time, and I keep pushing it back for other games. I don't know why.
Let's go into the "archives" in "Washington D.C." and find out how people "masturbated" in the "roaring 20's."
Crao Porr Cock8. Bitch.
There are so many games that I would like to play but for now I didn't have a chance to do so, here are few of those:
The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess - Besides that I'm big Zelda fan I heard so many good things about this game that I want to play it really bad but I have neither Wii nor GameCube.
Metal Gear Solid 4 - Well, for almost the same reasons that Rocky and Polk mentioned.
F.E.A.R 2 - The first one and expansion were excellent and this one look's really amazing, everything I read about it just makes me want to play this game even more but my computer is unbelievable weak.
FF X, X-2, XII - I never had a PS2 and that's the main reason I haven't played any of these FF games. But I'll receive PSP and PS2 pretty soon and then it will be time for FF games.

So I guess you never played FF VII but in few occasions you mentioned that it's your favorite FF game...and in Son's of Sparda group you mentioned that DMC 3 is your favorite in the series but it's seems that you never played it either...
I highly recommend that you least try to read the first post before posting something that doesn't have anything to do with this thread, you can call this a friendly advice.

Panzer Dragoon Saga. I would figure there has to be a reason why its fanboys are so over-zealous. And for whoever didnt play star ocean: the last hope, you are not really missing that much. I was expecting big things after til the end of time as well.Ditto Infinite Undiscovery.
Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne
Digital Devil Saga
Digaea 2
Wild ARMS, 4,5, Alter Code F
Fallout 1
Rise of Legends
NiGHTs into dreams...
Valkyrie Profile: Covenant of the Plume: I haven't played this game yet, and I've heard it's the darkness of the series so far, but it was suppose to be a great game. Now, I suddenly want to play it. Though, I'm not so fond of fighting against Lenneth. >_>
Resonance of Fate: There is a single reason why I haven't played it yet: it's not even released. =D But judging by the trailers that I've seen and screenshots, I want it, bad. It seems like a terrific game. I would ignore the guns part and just get to the game itself. Please release it soon. =O
Curiosity Conquers, So Click:
I HAVE to get Resonance of Fate, that and FF XIII/ Versus XIII, are my only true reasons for buying a PS3 (which I wil have to do soon)
Umm
Every FF: Crystal Chronicals? As i have yet to own a gamecube or having had the chance to buy the games for my Wii.
Fallout 1, 2 and 3.
TES: 1 and 2
FFVII: Crisis Core, Before Crisis.
Other psp games FF related.

Fable II. I played Fable I, and it was brilliant. I just don't have an Xbox 360 that I can play (we have one in the house, but it belongs to my brother. He won't give me a chance to play it, although I've let him play my PS3 countless times. ¬¬).
Devil May Cry 4. I just haven't got around to picking it up. I think I liked the soundtrack more than I probably liked the gameplay when I had the demo.
F.E.A.R 2 Same as Devil May Cry really, and I'm waiting for the prices to drop on it. I bought the first game after playing the demo for the second one, and was slightly disappointed with it. Apparently the second one is waayyy better.
Tales of Symphonia
When it came out I even bought it, only to make up an excuse that it wouldn't work and returning it the very next day.
I live in Kraut-land and they had to go ahead and replace the already translated English text with once more translated German text, which was a piss poor translation to boot.
That ticked me off so much that I didn't want to play it.
A few years ago I even got the Japanese PS2 version. There's a complete story script and menu translations available and my Japanese is good enough to understand most of the dialogs and even read a kanji here or there.
But I never really felt like it and always used other games or things as excuse to not start it.
Maybe I'm just waiting for someone to hack in the English text. If they did it with Persona 2 Innocent Sin where they also had to translate everything themselves, it should fairly easy when the entire text is already translated.
Twilight Princess
I had already sold my GC when it came out. But I'll get a new PC soon and will be able to emulate GC.
Metroid Prime 3
I don't have a Wii and even if the first Metroid Prime's are more or less my favorite games, I'm not getting one for this game alone.
Especially not because I don't think it will be any fun on the Wii.
I played Twilight Princes a bit on the Wii and the controls were nothing short of atrocius.
Action games and motion sensors do not mix, at all.
Anyway, I wholeheartedly agree with Persona 4.
In the last 3-4 years it was the one and only game I really enjoyed without any complaints.
It's not perfect (especially the plot has a few holes) but it's pretty close for a game.
But, I couldn't agree less with MSG 4. I have no idea about the gameplay, but from the few Youtube cutscenes I saw the story is not just one, but several mountains of BS.
And since they are like 70% of the game, I don't think it will be any fun playing this.
The one and only good part about the game seems to be an epic fist fight at the end.
Only 1 and 4 are worth playing.Every Soul Calibur
2 and 3 are utter crap with obscenely bad game mechanics and/or ai.
But yeah, Mass Effect for me as well.
I hate the 2 analog stick control scheme, probably because I suck so bad at it (and I hate having to switch between the analog stick and the buttons).
I heard you can also use round based battles, but for some reason I still can't motivate myself even though I'm fascinated by the story part.
I guess I'll just watch a Youtube video. I don't like Wrpgs that much because I'm not that fond of having to make millions of decision and roleplaying, I prefer to be told a complete story, so Youtube is fine.
Panzer Dragoon Saga is an ultra rare game and the only rpg part of a game series of rail shooters. What more would fanboys need to glee over it?Panzer Dragoon Saga. I would figure there has to be a reason why its fanboys are so over-zealous. And for whoever didnt play star ocean: the last hope, you are not really missing that much. I was expecting big things after til the end of time as well.Ditto Infinite Undiscovery.
I played it for half an hour or so a long time ago and it was pretty nice.
As for SO3, I found the game so appalling that I couldn't bear any more after 2 hours.
Sadly these 2 hours are also how long it takes until the first battle, which is just a simulation/battle tutorial that can nonetheless get you a game over.
Especially due to one of the worst ais in gaming history.
As for Unlimited Saga, I started playing and it was alright, nothing outstanding, but also not bad or anything.
Just the story had a pathetic premise like a picture book for grade schoolers.
And after around 10 hours the most disgusting player characters ever featured in any rpg are forced into your party.
Though what really made me stop playing was a bug that prevented me from opening a door.
Disgaea 2:
Don't bother at all. It's in every single way inferior to 1. Story and characters suck really bad and there are 1 or 2 additions to gameplay that are neat, but useless.
On the other hand the classes and skills got changed until they are no fun anymore and more or less all of the maingame maps are crap.
Wild Arms 5: I played like 20 hours.
Kinda neat, likabable characters and the battle system is good, too.
But the story is extremely cliched and boring and after a while enemies are absurdly overpowered to the point where bosses can wipe you out without a chance to heal inbetween and all normal battles consist of the enemies going first and killing 1 or 2 characters, then you getting your turn and getting rid of them.
DMC 4 is pretty good.
Very weak after 3 because it didn't expand on the great gameplay of 3 but instead flushed it all down the toilet and replaced it with some halfassed crap. The only good thing about the gameplay is the Devil Bringer.
Playing with someone else than Dante for half the game and afterwards revisiting every single stage when you get Dante back isn't a good thing either.
I second that. I've been wanting to play this game ever since I got my Saturn last year, but I can't justify spending over $200 for a single game, which is actually a pretty conservative estimate of its going rate on Ebay. I almost bought a collection of Panzer Dragoon, Panzer Dragoon 2 and Panzer Dragoon Saga for $250, but was outbid at the last minute. Damn.
Another one I should add is Batman: Arkham Asylum. I've been wanting to play it for a while now, but for some reason, haven't picked it up yet. Now that gaming season is kicking off, I'm not sure I'll get to it this year.
Until now!
Interesting.
Every Zelda game after Link to the Past: I never had a Nintendo system any more advanced than the Super Nintendo -- I went to the Playstation, then PS2, then XBox 360, then PS3. It'd be nice to play Twilight Princess, or Ocarina of Time, or whatever other ones are out, but I never bothered trying to get the system to play them.
Goldeneye 007: Same reason. Though I think I played it once, multiplayer for an hour, and I hated it because one kid knew all the respawn points and would just sit and wait for you.
Every Resident Evil: I tried playing one (I actually bought three), and I just couldn't get used to the camera angles. It actually gave me a headache. I'm sure they're great games, but the camera angles just don't do it for me.
MGS: Just never tried 'em, I suppose.
Starcraft: I've played Command & Conquer and such (only Red Alert series and Generals), but never tried Starcraft.
Counterstrike: Never tried it.

Metal Gear Solid series, Silent Hill series, Okami, Jet Force Gemini, Contra series, Advance Wars, Phoenix Wright series, Tales of Symphonia, Prince of Persia series, The World Ends With You, Killer7. I can't think of any others at the moment. All of the M-rated titles I mentioned are games that I really want, but my parents probably wouldn't approve of them. Luckly, I'm turning 17 in April. So, hopefully I will be able to start filling in the void at that time. The other games I just never got around to buying.
This is a toughy...Hmm, Lets see...What game(s) I liked the most, but never got to actually play it...hmmm...ummm...
~Heavenly Sword
~Dynasty Warriors: Gundam
~Dynasty Warriors: Gundam 2
~FFXII Revenant Wings
~FFT: War of the Lions
~FFT the Original
And Alot more, that apparently I cannot really remember, but I still have tons more.
You're only supposed to list good games.Originally Posted by Ryu-Kentoshii Hirokima
Until now!
I'd like to play the Persona series some day, maybe. If I can get into it. I've had a bad habit of not getting through RPG's lately (except Star Ocean: First Departure, apparently.) Xenogears is also supposed to be awesome. I've also heard very good things about Lost Odyssey, one friend calling it his "favorite game ever." What I've seen of Blue Dragon reminds me of Dragon Quest 8 (I wonder why!) so I'd like to play that, too.
I've watched my friend playing Valkyria Chronicles, a kind of strategy game involving a fictitious 1930's Europe. It looks really fun.
I've also watched my friends play every Metal Gear Solid and Resident Evil game, and want to give them a try some day. I started playing the original MGS-last Summer. Didn't get very far... Anyhoo...
Wuv, Yer Mom
TES2: Daggerfall. I've downloaded it from the official site, but I have no idea how to make it work. Eventually, I just.. gave up.
Also Baldur's Gate 2. It's supposedly one of the greatest games ever made. The only reason I've not played it, is because I want to finish the first one first.
Hm, everyone seems to be talking about Valkyria Chronicles and I haven't played that. From what I've heard it's really good and something I would want to play. So there is that.
Also Tales of Symphonia. I feel like I am one of the only people who haven't played it. I've never had a chance to. But I am hoping to play it out within the next year.
Oh, and Fallout 3.
Hmm..
I haven't pLayed FFIX *cries* I onLy saw it's screenshots and how my dad was pLaying it and he actuaLLy finished it..
when we stiLL have PS1 he pLayed it then when it's my turn it crashed (LoL!) then we bought PS2, and now the CD are gone. *sigh*
aLso..
I haven't pLayed any Persona series, they say it's a very good game and the characters are interesting.. but I stiLL have many games to finished, oh weLL.. :-)

I've heard nothing but praise songs for this FPS, but I am Xboxless. I think you might be able to buy it on the computer though, just too lazy and too broke.
Every Resident Evil -(Apart from 5)
Silent Hill Games
Zelda Games (Apart from Windwaker)
And too everyone who hasn't played every Metal Gear game , i would say you are seriously missing out. Out of all the games I've played (A LOT) Metal Gear games seem to have the most in depth storyline and most of the storyline can relate to real life like nuclear weapons and the Genome Program.
