Hmm I got F-Zero GX for $50 at EB the other week, and that wasn't on any sale *shrugs*

But a few good deals there.

Well I've completed it once, I'm on my second play through and I still love it. The only fault I can find is if you have say 29 health and you complete a level, it rounds it to the nearest multiple of 25.

Other than that, it's a great game, you really should get it. What console would you get it for?

XIII? FF VIII?

FF8 is an awesome game, best RPG in my opinion.

Maybe not best graphics but best gameplay and cinematics fo sho.

Its like the game never ends, so much to do... *cough*

No, he means XIII, thirteen, the console/PC cel shaded first person shooter.

I've got the game in my room somewhere, but still haven't played it. Really should do so.

lol my fault, I think ive been at SquareSoft forums for to long

I also have XIII though haha, Ive got it on PC and I dont really play it.

The graphics are great for a while, like being able to see what happens with your grenades and what happens after you sniper someone but then it gets kind of boring and annoying.

But thats my opinion.

i'd go PC for sure...
maybe i should check out the EB sale...

or a CD Library >

FYI: For those who don't browse the active site, this is updated every week on the site, but a forum thread isn't posted.

with regards to the EB sale, the one near me said it will go until the stock is sold, no definitive end date... just that the good stuff will obviously be sold sooner than the crappy stock...

You reckon you could update the Platinum/Classics/Player's Choice lists? You're getting a bit behind
