but whatever, you should get baldur's gate dark alliance, it looks really good, it may not be in the same style as the rest of them and looks much more like a diablo type game, but i am definatley getting for xbox, as soon as it is out in england,
try some of the old ones aswell, such as legend of legia, i lend you it if you want, umless you emulate,
get, onimusha aswell, and LOTR, and grandia 2 is supposed to be exellent. (thats out on pc aswell)

anyway the europe thing, its so annoying, how come we get games so much later than everyone else, sometimes they never come out in europe
I've had a PSOne for a while now, but I did once emulate (I completed FFIX on the PC ^_^) It has its benefits, but it does look better on the screen. As for a PS2, I'd probably have never been moaning about this if I'd bothered to read the "next day delivery MON-FRI only" hehe... I feel pretty dumb right now.

There are good reasons why we don't get as many games, or as Quick. Firstly because the TV standards are so different (NTSC -> Pal) and secondly because the French. and the Germans the Swedish and the rest. Translation is sadly another thing thats compulsory before a game is released anywhere in Europe.
Just because there are reasons, doesn't mean I agree with them. True, a lot of these games never sell, but it plain sucks

Oh and yes, the title of the thread is intentionally similar to the TV program. and yes, the TV program is rubbish. Who honestly wants to hear about Tony Blackburn's Log collection?
