<div style='font: 10pt "Arial bold"; text-align: left; '>For anyone with a Dreamcast, Grandia 2 is going for $20 at Ebgames.com right now. No excuses now boys</div>

<div style='font: 12pt "Times New Roman"; text-align: left; '>Except for the fact that I hated the game, and took it back? :P</div>

<span style="background: black; color: black;">God damn, Sarevok is absolutely insane. Give him the Vorpal Sword and have him whirlwind, and nothing - absolutely nothing - will survive.

Sarevok and Minsc single-handedly took down the Demogorgon - all they had was a few Mordenkainen swords to distract the demons, and Aerie used a Warding Whip to take down his protections - 5 seconds later, one dead prince of demons.

I think I shouldn't have trouble with the rest of this...</span></div>

<div style='font: 10pt "arial narrow"; text-align: left; padding: 0% 5% 0% 5%; '>Loathed Grandia 1.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>It's a good buy if you have no other games to play at the moment. If you don't have skies of Arcadia yet it'll probably be a better buy no matter what price you see it at.</div>

<div style='font: bold 11pt ; text-align: left; '>but overall it's very average. the battle system is great but everything else about it is mediocre.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "arial narrow"; text-align: left; padding: 0% 5% 0% 5%; '>Skies of Arcadia can bite an ass ('cause it doesn't work with my DC).</div>

<div style='font: 12pt Arial; text-align: left; '>Yah, the only positive thing about the dwindling of a console is that almost all the new copies of games go down to 10/20 bucks or so.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "arial narrow"; text-align: left; padding: 0% 5% 0% 5%; '>I saw Floigan Brothers (that what it's called?) today for $30. Saw someone playing it too, and it looks neat.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt Baskerville; text-align: left; '>...<i>I've been stripping the DC carcass myself lately. It also doesn't hurt that a local Toys R Us is getting ready to close its doors and a ton of stuff is on clearance. I've picked up Omnikron, Sword of the Berserk, Ecco the Dolphin (the Dreamcast is underpowered...yeah, right), Spiderman, Street Fighter III: Third Strike (Schweet animation), and Timestalkers within the last two months and probably paid just a little over $100 for the lot...not to mention all the PSX games I've gotten for about 10 bucks a shot. It'll be awhile before I play all of them, but I'm in no hurry...it just feels nice knowing I will get to play them, and more than once at that.

The only annoying thing is that none of the N64 games seem to have lower prices except for third party titles. Excitebike and Zelda 2 are still $50 bucks apiece, and I really wanna get them but it seems like a waste of money when I can get a bunch of other cool games for 1/4 of the price...but at least cartridges are generally alright to pick up used. Used cartridges will almost always work perfectly...used CD's on the other hand...I don't even like renting cd games anymore...I'd really like to know what the fuck some people are doing to these games at home to get some of the funk that I find on rented discs...they must play frisbee with the dog or something...inconsiderate morons...</i></div>

<div style='font: 9pt Arial; text-align: left; '>Timestalkers! What on earth possessed you, Esque?</div>

<div style='font: 12pt Baskerville; text-align: left; '>...<i>I really hadn't planned on picking it up myself until I read the opinions of a few friends at RPGFan whose tastes run similar to mine. They said they had a blast with the game and that if given a chance it's really entertaining...and for the price I paid I figured it was worth a shot. If anything I get to play as Nigel and Friday from Landstalker again...that's definitely worth what I paid for it...and it can't possibly be worse than Legend of Dragoon which I'm currently crawling my way through, bloody knuckles and all...</i></div>

<div style='font: 9pt Arial; text-align: left; '>I thought the battle system was pretty original and fun, it's just that the story didn't do much for me (a gross understatement).</div>

<div style='font: 9pt Arial; text-align: left; '>One more price dop...</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>I actually just began replaying the game, just go over to someones place who has a Dreamcast, exchange your Dreamcast with that one.... WHAT, it's not like no ones ever done it with Playstation or NES before!</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "Arial bold"; text-align: left; '>Yeah, my friend told me it was a fairly decent RPG as well. You can pick up Elemental Gimmick Gear for under $10 now</div>

<div style='font: 12pt Arial; text-align: left; '>Yah, same spree that I went on when Saturn was phased out. Funny thing, though, is seeing Turok2 new for $5 at ToysRus.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light"; text-align: left; '>Schweet animation, shitty control. The jump kick in that game is screwed.</div>
