My second thread tonight in the same forum... excuse my spamminess! :o

I've just been playing some older games that have been sat on my shelf and started thinking... "Wow... I really wish I had the follow up"


(PC) SWAT 4 - The Stetchkov Syndicate (SWAT 4 fan, never got around to buying this)
(PC) Sim City 4: Rush Hour (again a SC fan, but never bought this expansion)


Bioshock - I really enjoyed the demo, never bought it though.
Halo 2 and 3 - Supposedly huge games, again they just slipped through the net.
FFX - why the heck didn't I buy this? :(
The Orange Box (finished both HL1 and HL2 really enjoyed them both, never played any of the Episodes, or Portal :o)

Possibly the worst till last?
MGS4 - I consider myself quite a MGS bofin, and again I'm a huge fan of the series... but I just haven't bought this yet!
:o
 
Ikaruga - Played it on my friends' systems so many times, played the demo on XBLA, and yet still can't be bothered to stump up the cash for it on either that or the GC, even though I know I'll love it.

Smash Bros Brawl - No time no time no time.

Same.

Also keep meaning to try Bully but never get round to it. I've been tempted to get Skate. on quite a few occasions too, but I try to stay clear of games that could potentially induce physical violence.
 
Rez
Jet Set Radio
Jet Set Radio Future

Completed all 3, but dont actually own them. Actually, does anyone know if JSRF works on the 360 as an emulated Xbox game? I might just pick it up.

And can you connect a DreamCast to a PC monitor? JSR is tempting me too....
 
Metal Gear Solid - Was always a Nintendo fanboy as a kid and thought this game was superior to all else that was made. I have it now even though i still dont own anything other than a PSP (which is why i bought it).

Banjo-tooie - I was only given games at christmas and birthdays so their was always 1 game i liked ahead of another one, this is one gem i missed out on and im going to have to buy it or wait for it to be released on VC.

Diablo 2 - Never played it but i loved those type of games, im hoping Diablo 3 can get me hooked.

Super Mario All Stars - I LOVED THIS GAME, but never bought it due to no money as a kid, should have asked for it really as i loved playing this at a friends house, completed it for him before he did.

Mario Kart - Ashamed i never owned it, borrowed it a few times but never really got used because non of my mates ever played video games on multiplayer.
 
I've been meaning to pick up Okami for ages but still haven't yet. Is it still worth getting? I'm hoping to find it in a bargain bin somewhere instead of going via a certain crappy auction site.
 
The Eldar Scrolls: Oblivion keeps cropping up when I'm lookin' to get a new game for my console but as son as I start seriously consider getting it, another game is released which catches my eye. It's happened like three times now :)

Imho that is one of the best games I've played on the PS2, maybe even of all time. It's not the gameplay though, it's the story that accompanies it that made it as good as it is for me. However I never played FF7 so I think I sit in a minority when I say I reckon that's the best Final Fantasy. You really should pick it up if you ever get the chance. You won't regret it ;)
