Check your thread in the trades board, you have a potential buyer for one of your games if it helps. I like Christmas but loathe the commercial side of it :/ it's a nice day though with presents, good food / drink and usually the odd Lol or two along the way, oh plus it's a couple of days off work ^^ I'll still probably be working Christmas Eve again though just like last year.

Maybe it's become "unassigned" from the box somehow... Idk how yours works but I assume most setups are similar, on mine you connect it (digibox, whatever) to labelled outlets on the back of the unit, and then select the correct output on the box with a remote, I know sometimes you have to assign the audio to a certain one, so maybe it's that.

Quality stuff Odwin.

My copy arrived today, had a quick blast on it with my Bro, it's fun but... *goes back to playing Gears 2* I'll play it some more later.

But but... Phantasy Star IV... **edit** actually PSIV is allready on the PSP collection I think but still... better on the big screen... and in HD... and ahievements...

QFT!

^^^ yeah but... be honest... with the current tropical climate of releases we are currently bathing in do you really mind? I know I don't will be a nice collection to pick up after Xmas.

I'd happilly take... 'Where the only water flowing is the bitter sting of tears' If Eenuh wants to take... 'There's a world outside your window, and it's a world of dread and fear' but she posted it first so I'll leave it up to her tbh I'd be happy taking either of those lines if Eenuh wants to take the other one also btw Ine I totally think you and Flink should do a duet for whichever line you choose as that would be awesome. ^^ anyway yeah I'd like to help... and to sing my line in the style of Muse if possible... >> Talk to me Eevil!

The single player is soo good and the multiplayer is epic. ^^

It's not a case of that though, for 360 online play is for XBLA arcade versions, they will still release those but these are just the original games, with achievements I assume? Anyway almost 30 of those titles are single player only plus out of the 10? that are multiplayer, 3 of them are allready available on XBLA, so this collection is definitely warranted, providing each titles has HD smoothing and the ability to stretch to full screen like the XBLA titles do. Other than that as I've said it's worth paying the £20 just for Phantasy Star IV ^^ and it'll be nice to have a load of mini 5G achievements to get. *edit* just worked it out... it'll be something like 25G per game. but still pretty cool.

Ah of course *slaps forehead* Beyond Oasis... the American name for what we know as Story of Thor, silly me ty Cube.

^^^ That anime is so awesome.

With the exception of Comix Zone (which is there btw Solo) the rest of those games you have mentioned aren't made by Sega, whereas all the games on the disc are oh and Story of Thor is Sega too but yeah... at least they have the Phantasy Star Quadrilogy on there.

I want them all to play full screen, otherwise it's not really worth it :/ if they are full screen though I would get it for Phantasy Star IV alone.

That sucks the guy was a literary legend.

**edit** oh you're talking about the sound... yes 5 is harsh as it was a prime example of what could be done at the time, I really loved the BGM from the original BK ^^ and besides... the music in N&B is just the same / similar but orchestrated so it's not really a fair comment, plus don't they redo all XBLA titles with 5.1 sound? it will be nice to hear it in surround or at least the best approximation they can make out of it.

*confused* SSJ posted that IGN gave it a 8/10? then Cube... your saying that they gave it a criminal rating of 5? whats going on here. :/

Well thats reassuring to know, still though, I bet half the Were-hog bits turn out like Shadow the Hedgehog... >> a shame because the actual Sonic bits look freaking epic.

Damn this game is good... and tbh me getting it early does kind of make up for two years ago when I ordered the original Gears ltd edition and it got lost in the post as a result I missed out on it and ended up buying it a year later or something. Anyway, balance has been restored now (sort of) t'is truly an epic game.

Arrived today.

^___________^

I've just seen the preview on IGN... http://uk.xbox360.ign.com/articles/927/927372p1.html looks like it could be another "7" Sonic game possibly due to the Werhog bits, the daytime levels look fucking immense and the hub serves to break things up a bit but the night-time levels... the don't look too bad but they may have just ruined the game by having Were-Sonic in it. :/ Also, in the video in that preview... WTF they have replaced the "ring loss" sound effect with the "ring get" sound effect? is that an error or just Sega being completely and utterly fucking incompetent? Shit if they just tightened up the Were-hog levels a bit more or removed them and changed the ring sound effect back to the perfect and unchanged sound it always has been (idiots it was always the one thing that was right about all Sonic game ><) then this could have been epic... I mean it still will be if you ignore the nighttime levels (which may or may not be that bad) but the ring sound effect... that would just annoy me too much. :/

It does look bad, but fans of the series may enjoy it... http://uk.xbox360.ign.com/articles/922/922192p1.html ^^^ link to review for anyone interested.

I know, I'm not sure what I saw in them tbh :/ they were never my favourite band, just that their last album (2nd one) I quite liked, they are overplayed and overrated though.

I ordered from Play and apparently mine shipped about 4pm today... I'll be lucky to get it on release day I guess.
