Yeah, Climax's games mostly all had a pretty similar style early on. Also check out Lady Stalker for the SFC and Dark Savior for the Saturn.
They also had a hand in the original Shining Force, which explains why the art is similar.

If you like those try Alundra (if you haven't already) it was made by former members of Climax.

Had to get these two for a project. Resident Evil 4 has some really important footage that'll be useful, and it's been forever since I last played the game anyway. Should be fun, especially after having gotten so good at RE5 over time.
I had Clock Tower 3 years ago and liked what little I played, but I was always a little put off by the fact that it's all supernatural-themed and whatnot, while the original games were a little more grounded. It's not a hold up I have about the series anymore though, so I'll enjoy it more this time for sure. Plus the fact that I'm such a nut for Haunting Ground now, and CT3 was the immediate precursor to that.

And this little beauty finally arrived:



Been meaning to get it for so many years, but never went ahead with it until now. Such a great soundtrack. Best driving music ever.

That post deserved a thumbs up for the dog alone.

[Henry Spencer]

Sweet dog.
Oh yeah, nice pick ups too.

About a week or so ago I picked a Sega Saturn. It's my first time ever owning one and it is absolutely beautiful. But it's damn near impossible to find games for it where I live. I'm determined to hunt though. So far all I got is Tomb Raider and Virtua Fighter 2. I'm curious though.. I may pick up a ram pak soon(the shop in my town has a vast majority of Japanese Saturn games). But I'm not 100% sure if doing that really does allow me to play Japanese imports on my system? Anyone here have any experience with this? Like I said. I am completely new to this system. So any info or recommendations would totally help!

Yeah, I don't really know, what I was thinking. I like my Snatcher on the Mega CD but this Saturn version is going to be tough. I can't read enough Japanese to know for sure, what option I'm picking and the 32-Bit versions of the game are kinda sucky. The way they've redone some of the graphics and especially the music...

Well, it's still something nice and unique to have and it was pretty cheap, so I'm not complaining.

^Best version IMO

After a bit of work, its all finally here. Had to take the second pic to show off these 2 awesome collectors editions. the one for Xillia 2 is much bigger than the original.

[Raithos]

Hell yea, I'm glad you were able to get it! That guide looks sick! I knew I should have ordered it already lol

[AnimeGamer183]

Yeah, I took your advice and did the game stop exchange, so I have a perfect guide now and inadvertantly screwed them out of a few dollars when I made the return, I got a discount on the guide via gamestop power play account or whatever, which saved me a few dollars, but I went to another location to do the exchange and they returned me the full price, they kept the receipt, they will probably realize later they gave me too much, a couple dollars disappeared in there some where though.

I also pre-ordered Tales of Hearts R today while I was there.

Not sure if it counts as a purchase, but I downloaded Dishonored for free on 360 with free games for gold. I played the first level and it's pretty fun so far.

[Axm]

Had to pre-order overseas from GAME since the LE isn't availble here in the US for some reason. Never ordered from them so hope it all works out! Only $75 shipped so wasn't a bad deal at all.
