I need your knowledge!

Thanks for all the suggestions and recommendations! It's much appreciated

You seem to like fighting games, so this post is dedicated to fighting games. They've had a bit of a resurgence in the last two years, with the biggest one being Street Fighter 4. Super Street Fighter 4 is out now, so it's recommendable to just skip to that. Soul Calibur 4 came out a while ago so you should be able to get it pretty cheap. BlazBlue's pretty good and has been out for a bit, but the next version of it is coming out in July (BlazBlue Continuum Shift). It's more of a 'Super Blazblue' than a 'BlazBlue2'. You can download Battle Fantasia from the PlayStation network if you reeaallly want to (it never came out on disc for the PS3), but that's more of a cute diversion than a 'good fighting game'.

I don't really like Tekken, but Tekken 6 is available too. I love me some Virtua Fighter 5, but the 360 version is a newer/better version.

For Wii, the list is pretty short. There's Tatsunoko vs Capcom and several King of Fighters compilations, but I'd probably stick with Tatsunoko. Smash Bros. could be fun, but judging from your list (and the fact that you didn't get it for the GameCube) it doesn't seem like you have a lot of Nintendo history love.

I'm not sure if Street Fighter 4 is something for me - it does look good, though.. so who knows, maybe if I stumble upon a cheap copy of it one day.

I'm definitely getting Soul Calibur 4 and Tekken 6 once they're cheaper. Soul Calibur 4 is already pretty cheap, but Tekken 6 still costs a buttload here.

Oh, I have lots of Nintendo history love! I played a lot of Smash Bros. on the N64 (I just never had a N64 of my own), and I've thought about buying Smash Bros. Brawl for the Wii.. but it's still too expensive here (eventhough it's been out for ages).

2D fighting games aren't usually my thing, so I don't think BlazBlue is for me.

Super Mario Galaxy 2 is coming out this month, y'know.

Yeah, I know. I think I'm gonna wait a bit before buying that, though.

Okami for Wii or PS2. littlebigplanet for PS3.

I've been interested in Okami for a while now, actually. It looks really good!

If you like the whole climbing around and jumping stuff in Prince of Persia and Tomb Raider then you will most definitely like Mirror's Edge. It's all zooom zoom zoom climb fast run go wall jump hurry bullets will catch you! It is very beautiful, and I love it even though I hate playing in the first person! It can be beaten in one sitting if you don't get too stuck, so you may just want to rent it. Assassin's Creed is this plus assassinating people and it's pretty great. So definitely Mirror's Edge and Assassin's Creed.

Very much true. I recommend Assassin's Creed 2, 'cause it's better. Mirror's Edge is a must-get.

Mirror's Edge looks intruiging. As for Assassin's Creed - I thought about buying the first one, but just never got around to it. Now it's a game I can borrow from friends. The 2nd one in the series looks even better than the first one, though.

Well you like Tomb Raider, i would definitely recommend the uncharted games on PS3.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure I'll buy the Uncharted games at one point or another They look like games I'd enjoy. Uncharted 2 especially looks great. Beautiful game.

So, you have no Vanillaware games!

There's one for the Wii: Muramasa: The Demon Blade.
There are two for the PS2: Odin Sphere and GrimGrimoire.

GrimGrimoire might not be your cup of tea, but Odin Sphere and Muramasa are must-haves. Muramasa is the most beautiful game I've ever played.

I actually got close to buying Odin Sphere last year, and Muramasa looks even better!



I've been thinking about buying the recently released God of War Collection lately. All of the games in the series have gotten rave reviews, and they look pretty damn badass. Any fans here to confirm?
