    I recently added PAX East and had the pleasure to not only meet a bunch of you, but do a little shopping while I was there. The pickings were fantastic, so I'm pumped to show you all what is my personal favorite game haul I've got in a long while.

    Summoner and Summoner 2 (aka the Goddess Reborn) are connected, and share some characters as well.
    They are amazing games. And they are, in fact, made by another familiar company, not known for their RPGs somewhat.
    Volition.

    Return to Castle Wolfenstein is one of my favorite games from that era! If you like mythical weird WWII you'll love it Matty. Also the PS2 and Xbox variants of that game each have a few levels specific to each port so keep an eye out for the PS2 version for your collection if you don't already have it 😁

    Summoner was a great game. It's stuck with me to the point that I still think about it regularly. The music still randomly pops into my head. It was made by Volition.

      Summoner was the only game i was able to get with my PS2 on launch day since every other game was sold out by the time i got there, needless to say i played the hell out of it. Some of my best PS2 memories.

    Return to Castle Wolfenstein was a great game. The MP on Xbox live was great with a class system and the campaign was fun as it is two player co-op. I remember beating it with my cousin I lived with at the time!

    Doom 3: Resurrection of Evil was actually a expansion to the original game. They ported it to Xbox because they also ported the original game and to beef up the package, they included the classic Doom games. In fact, the collector's edition for the Doom 3 Xbox port also had the classic Doom games included.

    • @mwoodj
      @mwoodj Місяць тому

      Yeah and right at the beginning of the game/expansion they introduce a new gun which is essentially the gravity gun from Half-Life 2. HL2 released around the same time as Doom 3. They must have been inspired. RoE throws you right into the action. You would not want to play it before playing Doom 3.

    Dang I missed ya at PAX! I picked up Night In The Woods and Arzette from LRG and then I grabbed the physical Castle Crashers from behemoth. I told myself I’d only buy retro if I found a few very specific games I was looking for but no dice there. I was really excited for the VGNY booth since I’ve been to that store a few times and it’s incredible but I was shocked at how many games they had that I had never heard of.

    Just curious, roughly how many independent retro stores were at PAX East? Pre pandemic the number was always 1-3; I wonder if fewer publishers & a smaller WOTC presence led to a larger amount of stores selling?
    Also PAX West 2019 the only retro store at that convention was Pink Gorilla, but they have a stranglehold on the retro game scene in Seattle.

    You should play the Summoner games and make a video. Both are great but for different reasons. 1st can take a while to get used to and is a little bland visually but story is fantastic. 2nd is more colourful and sharper. Both have humorous parts as well.

    I loved project sylpheed as a kid. The story was cool the graphics were great for the time and it had a nice progression for upgrades which carried over to new playthroughs so you could be overpowered and change the outcome for certain missions (to a small extent). I was always disappointed that a port never made its way to PC lol
