Transformers Devistation to me is the right step in hopefully a direction they'll continue to take Transformers games in.
I'm so sick of the movie-verse and its character designs.

Wonder why Sega didn't push/advertise the Oasis series? I looked it up and Chrono Trigger released 3 days before Beyond Oasis which I'm sure didn't help but still you would think today you see people giving it a lot more love.

I can remember when fist got beyond oasis, i had never heard of it at all except for a small bit in a issue of gamefan magazine i think. Its such a gorgeous game, the first time i saw him play it the sprites blew me away and i had it in my head good lord this looks more amazing than zelda on snes.

Does anyone have experience with pre-orders from Gamestop? Work has been super stressing me out, and I ended up working on some reports late, so I completely forgot to pick up my Fire Emblem pre-orders like a big dummy. Their website says they can be picked up within 48 hours of release date, so I'm hoping they'll let me pick them up tomorrow. Any ideas if they're good about honoring that? They must close at 9:00 - 9:30 p.m., no one answered at the store when I called. I'm going to call in the morning, too. I'm really kicking myself, gah. D:

Yeah they'll have it for you. Its something like if you dont pick it up in 3 weeks they send off what you paid to corporate and your sol but that whole 48hr thing is for games like cod that has a huge release and if you dont show for your copy they'll pull it to sell it.

Thanks, fr0zen! I was thinking about that too - in this area, yeah, CoD would sell out in no time, but I'm not sure too many people care about Fire Emblem except myself and the guy who did my pre-orders, rofl - he was as excited as I was. But ya never know, I guess.

We do have gamers in this area but not like other areas. I know their is some what of a community around us but most of the gamers i meet are kinda weird, emo, weird, hipster, cod sports whore, closet collector, and did i mention weird lol? Probably the coolest peeps i know that game like us are all the guys who work at 2 dudes, i can chat with those guys all day. Their shop is cool but i cant stand everyone who works at pop culture. I feel like they try to hard to be uber smart about vintage games when sadly they dont have a clue. I over heard them oneday just bashing the shit out of the dreamcast just because they read on the internet it was a failed system and it wasnt nintendo. I just left the store, it was either that or open my mouth and get kicked out lol.

D'awh, dese widdle hipsters are so precious! *gag* I dunno. I try to be a responsible adult and "raise" my cousins to like cool stuff, and they do. You have to hit them at an early age, haha. I got my cousin Connor hooked on Monster Hunter when he was 6, and some other games too. Hopefully, he stays on the right path! Maybe that was too young, but he thought it was awesome to go around hacking and slashing dinosaurs, it's one of his favorite games. He got used to the controls very quickly, too. most of them like anime because of me, I'd like to think. I don't blame you. I say pick up a controller and find out for yourself how a system is ... reading bs here and there doesn't tell you crap about the actual gaming experience.

I love the funny things kids say in the retro video game store. I remember a couple kids looking at NES games, and they're looking at some Zapper game and the one kid says, "these won't work on our TVs. We need a glass TV"
I just thought that was funny. The ancient glass television.

That might be a good idea, Chappy. I'm really surprised at the turn-out on this, it's apparently selling very well.
