    I miss the days of buying a game just cause it looks fun, getting home ripping off the wrapper and popping it in and it ends up being awesome.
    Now a days I only buy 1-3 games per year and there’s no surprises. Call of duty, FIFA, maybe something new.

      Bret Griffis Oh man.. if Sony has picked up Matsuzo Machida for Japan Studio's secret project Yoshida is really excited about but it's not Shadow Hearts I'm going to be in tears. A hybrid between The Legend of Dragoon and Shadow Hearts with AAA budget, polish, perfection would be the masterpiece Sony couldn't get in the past. Another title that will set up for a classic franchise in Sony's library.

I've played every shadow hearts game, the 3rd was a bit of a mehh, but I'm gonna replay it again someday lol. still waiting for new shadow hearts game to come :D others aren't much my cup of tea though. I think the ar tonelico games and ephemeral fantasia and evergrace are too under appreciated too. thanks for the list, it was a pleasure to watch and listen, I like it how you have calm pace when you talk and you talk so that even I can understand. :) most youtube vids have talker whose words I cannot hear and understand.

    • @5persondude
      @5persondude 9 років тому

      ***** well, the developer who made it (cant remember the name) only made 2 games before they had shut down; Crash Twinsanity and some Super Monkey Ball spin-off. also, i remember seeing a comment that said someting like this:
      "Wrath of Cortex: 5 million copies
      Twinsanity: 700,000 copies
      what happened?"
      the comment i remember seeing was something like that. i guess they were upset that Wrath of Cortex outsold Twinsanity by a huge margin, and although i grew up with Wrath of Cortex as my first Crash game, i can kinda understand why some people dislike it. ill look up both games' sales (copies sold) on wikipedia or something and see if that comment was true about Twinsanity selling poorly

    By the way, Really enjoying the videos MJ, your reviews are really clear and informative. While not all games are for me (I have neither the time or the inclination for long turn based RPGs anymore) you have made some great suggestions that I have missed and been able to track down on ebay/amazon. At the time, if the shops didn't have it, you were out of luck.

      As a huge Ace Combat fã, i think he didnt mention it cos its not really a hidden gem, most ppl that like airplane games or airplanes in general, knows Ace Combat, not to mention how excelent it is :)
      The concept of hidden gem is when a game is really good and is overlooked or shadowed by others game of same type, for example Shadow Heart that is an amazing RPG, as good as any Final Fantasy, but can be easily overlooked by said game for this being more famous than Shadow Heart.
      Ace Combat is one of the best (if not the best) flight simulator still in existence for consoles in my opinion, making it not really a hidden gem, as when u go search for a fly combat simulator game, ur 1st option gonna be prolly an Ace Combat

    Ape Escape 2 & Scooby-Doo Night of 100 Frights were dear favorites of mine. But Road Trip Adventure from Takara has to be a hidden gem. Released in 2002, this is not only a racing game, but has a massive world full of different terrains to explore. There are many things to do to not only get money for new parts, but you can fill up a book of 100 stamps to get the "Devil parts", a trademark series of car parts in older Choro Q games. Definitely a game worth looking into.

    Shadow hearts was a big surprise for me on ps2. I found him panning at game stores here in Brazil. I remember not having tweaked much of the graphics of the first, since I had played FFXX but the battle system reminded me a lot of Legend of Dragoon for PS1 (THE BEST PS1 GAME). That thing of pressing the buttons at the right time to complete the combo.
    Here in Brazil it's very expensive to keep updating the consoles, so I've been looking for a lot of game tips on your channel. For PS2, PSX, 16 bit, DS and others ...
    Great job with the channel!
