Re: MIA; Have you seen these games?
Well, everything was making that transition really. Xenogears for example, brilliant game, but some of the worst 3d graphics out there. It was in an experimental phase, so I can see why you were put off, but you have to give them some form of leniency considering. They progress graphically too, Suikoden V's graphics were awesome. Maintained the traditional top view fashion but with excellent third dimension sprites. I'd definitely give it another shot. I personally loved III, the story line was awesome and shocked you upon the realization of who the masked man was the first time around.
"Perhaps you should demonstrate the power which gives you such confidence. Then we shall see who is fit to be supreme ruler, and who... is dead!"
Re: MIA; Have you seen these games?
I think I will try to pick up the series again. Thanks for encouraging me towards it. I will have to thank you once I play them.

Re: MIA; Have you seen these games?
Where do those stats come from brightshield?
It's the overall average on Gamerankings.
For those number to stand up, you have to assume that the reviewing criteria didn't change from 1995-2006. That sounds pretty naive to me.
Another problem: there are far more reviews for the games past 2. That makes it far more likely for the first two games to skew in one direction or the other.
What does all this have to do with anything? All I said was that Suikoden 3 didn't get mediocre reviews.

Re: MIA; Have you seen these games?
Oooh, Shenmue, phyco! YES!
If you'd actually said, then I think people would've better accepted it. But yeah, what little I've seen of Suikoden 3, it wasn't terrible.
Suikoden 3 is the highest rated game in the series.
There's a big difference between highest rated and "didn't get mediocre reviews."What does all this have to do with anything? All I said was that Suikoden 3 didn't get mediocre reviews.

Sonic, my name is WD RPG WD, not phycho.
Maybe I should change my avatar. Glad to hear there is another person that wants Shenmue III.

Re: MIA; Have you seen these games?
Well, GameRanking's does take all the major media sites and average their scores, so it's a pretty accurate way of seeing what kind of rankings a game got. That doesn't mean it's right. Though Suikoden III was quality, IMO. Still, I'd probably take II and V over it, but it's up there pretty close. The entire series outside of IV is outstanding. VI is overdue.

Re: MIA; Have you seen these games?
Most of the games i have and played have sequels already. (i need to expand my game collection)
I would like to see more Lunars
and another legend of dragoon and chrono cross/trigger would be nice.
I cant really think of anything that hasn't been mentioned yet at the moment.
(^^;.........I play the atelier games.....I like the alchemy : <)

Re: MIA; Have you seen these games?
Hmmm...I can't really think of much that deserves a sequel other than:
Lunar (obviously)
Threads of Fate
I would say Legend of Dragoon, but I still need to beat that game. >_<;

Re: MIA; Have you seen these games?
Scores are an ordinal level whose meaning differs from person to person. Averaging scores is kind of like averaging social security numbers; it doesn't really mean what people think it means.

Re: MIA; Have you seen these games?
Did anyone here ever play Spellcaster on the Sega Master System? I would love to see a Spellcaster 2.
A new Dragon Force would be awesome as well.

Both apply to Suikoden 3 though... unless you count an 86 as mediocre.

Re: MIA; Have you seen these games?
Kiz, the point I was making is that GameRankings is a highly used site in the gaming industry to keep tabs on the kinds of review scores a game is getting from all major media.
And speaking of old games being revived... a new Lufia was just announced today.

Hopefully it's better than the last Lufia game.

I know. I was just pointing out that the method of averaging scores is fundamentally flawed from a statistics perspective.

Apparently the original Lufia team is doing it too.

Fear Effect 3: Inferno. Got canned by Eidos.
Might be for the best. Rumor has it this game might have gotten an AO.
