@scottalanmiller Same here. Don't mind a classic JRPG once in a while though.
I loved the Dragon Warrior (Dragon Quest in Japan) series (1 to 4 or 5) back on my NES. Then I left the console realm and never really played the series again. I keep meaning to buy the ones I can for other platforms now, just haven't.
-
My favorite of all those games was Legend of Dragoon, which I believe was a Sony PlayStation 1 exclusive. VERY lengthy game, came on 4 discs.

Dragon Quest VII on the PS2 is one of my favorite games ever!!

PS2 was the best console, such a great library spanning so many genres.
-
I really loved the PS2. So good. I own like 25 amazing games for that.

The EMotion Engine chip really broke a lot of ground.

Yes. Lots of good technology in there. Dream cast was awesome too.

Do you remember the fish-man game? I was never sure whether I really enjoyed that.
Speaking of DreamCast i was addicted to Soul Caliber for the longest time.

I remember when the Gran Tourismo 2 came out.....i lost weeks of my life to that game ha
-
@Hubtech Such a wonderful game. 3 was a disappointment, but 4 was a true successor. Actually looking at building a custom GT4 themed PS2 for myself, probably out of Walnut wood with a nice dark stain.

I had to Wiki that... He was the NARRATOR. That makes it 1000x better.

I'm running an AMD Athlon 64x2 with 4GB of RAM, nVidia 560TI, and Kingston SSD. It isn't much, but plays FFXIV on high settings with no issues.

Wow. That's even below my system. Surprised that it does that well.
You really don't need too much these days.

now that's funny. My friend who upgrade his machine last year to a 8 core AMD setup is already wanting to upgrade again. This time the current i7 with 16 Gig RAM, he might look for a faster SSD too.
