"2001 was a year of great advancement in the gaming world. The sixth generation of gaming consoles were just getting their boots wet, and had yet to diversify themselves in software.
"Halo wouldn’t rock the world until November.
"Online gaming was still a luxury to be had by PC gamers only (not counting the Dreamcast).
"The Game Boy Color was a massive success, and Nintendo knew that they had to follow it up with something ten times as good (which had to be one of the most daunting tasks ever undertaken). To say that tensions were high would be an understatement."
It seems it was long time ago. A bunch of friends spending hours on end playing RPG games, sitting around the table with the box of cold pizza. Excited about the story, listening to the Game Master, they were completely engaged in the worlds only visible to them and their imaginations.
The GM is the programmer, and in MMOs and co-ops, you can play with others. If you want to ONLY use your imagination for the visuals, read a book.
Scrawl: "Looks like we know how that new Compile Heart countdown is going to end. The latest issue of Famitsu has confirmed that Agarest Senki 2, known as Record of Agarest War 2 in the US, is Compile Heart’s newest title."
1) Hope they put it on disc this time.
2) Hope this is a positive for Neptune coming over as well.
Is this a half decent SRPG, porn aside, cause if it is, i might just decide to go and buy it for the 360.

Man, what a system it was...
It was a nice system, nice shape
I stepped on one of these recently
I still think I have one of those somewhere...I still love Pokemon, but now I play it on the DS.
Decent article that made a few good points. I think the author found himself waxing nostalgic more about Pokemon than the GBA, but that's cool. It was a good system, indeed. I still have my GBA SP and use it to this day. My favourite point the author stated was this, "This was a time when gamers were used to getting less, versus being entitled to everything like these days."
Just a personal opinion, but from my own perspective, I do find a lot of people have an entitlement mentality. Just something to note.
