Long, long ago, battles were waged with blade and spell. The lush island of Aedis was constantly submerged in bloodshed. Eventually, this hatred and anger gave birth to an entity known as Mugen, which brought an end to all things. Now they call it a fairy tale, a mere child's fantasy.
Unbeknownst to many, the Generation of Chaos that we first got for the PlayStation Portable was actually the fourth game in the series. As such, it was a very bad game to introduce to the strategy-hungry NIS fan base and saw lackluster reviews all around. With the sequel, Aedis Eclipse: Generation of Chaos, Idea Factor and NIS America plan to regain some of the cult popularity that the game has in the Japanese market. Perhaps a better name would have been Generation of Chaos 2, but that would be misleading since it's the fifth game in the series ... but I digress.
With the recent re-release of Ogre Battle 64 -- one of Mike Gingras's favorite games -- on the Wii's Virtual Console, he got to thinking about good games that aren't well represented in mainstream gaming. The "hidden gems," if you will. Here are his favorites.
Lots of big RPG releases coming in January for consoles, PC, and handhelds alike. Russ breaks it down.
Ds is getting some serious rpgs next month. Sweet. Glory of heracles sounds sweet as hell. Now I wonder when nintendo will finally show a release date for Modono. That title really looked cool.
Man, is there any kind of suspension/ban system or IP tracking or capcha device that can slow these spammers down, if not stop them entirely?

"Video game collecting is not just a hobby for completionist dorks any more. More and more gamers are starting to see their favorite pastime as a potential investment, as the popularity of old games means that certain titles are in less and less supply. The older and more obscure a gaming system, the better chance that its more sought after titles will fetch a high price on Ebay or other auction sites. "
Number 1 on the list is Moto GP for the PsP and he has this to say about it...
(We never did get the promised Gran Turismo on PSP, but the Polyphony team did see fit to throw us a different bone – a PSP version of their motorcycle racing game. )
Did I miss something? since when is Tourist Trophy on the PsP and when did it become Moto GP?
This is my wtf quote of the day
(Unless Sony issues a re-print of this title, expect it to be one of the rarest of PSP racing games. New copies regularly go for $80 on Ebay.)
Moto GP on the PSp is 16$ Buy ow on Eay
Tourist Trophy on the PS2 is 10$ buy now on Ebay.
http://cgi.ebay.com/MotoGP-...
and here is is used for 16$
still does not change the fact that it is not portable tourist trophy, did you write this top ten?
i only have MGS: Digital Graphic Novel from that list, and its the american version coz i bought it from Ebay (i live in the UK). So, at least i have 1 lol
If by rare and collectible, they mean...20 bucks at Gamestop...then, yes. These are all rare and collectible.
If you can find a copy of the Metal Gear Graphic Novel for $20 at your local mall, I will gladly take it off your hands for $30. Same goes for Generation of Chaos.
Umm nah man, collectibles are very rarely gonna be found at Gamestop. Lol you obviously don't understand the concept of collectibles. If you actually do find a rare game at Gamestop, they know its value, and they will probably charge more than 20 dollars for it.
The thing is to get these games while they're still in production...not to get that after they've already become rare.
I've got a pretty large collection probably worth thousands on ebay, games from every single system that are rare and worth money. Like Panzer Dragoon Saga, which I bought when it came out at Toysrus for 5 bucks brand new, never opened it and its now probably worth a few hundred dollars on ebay. It was on clearance because the Sega Saturn had pretty much died right when the game came out, which is why I got it for so cheap.
Innocent Life and the NIS title are the only games I could see on that list becoming collectibles. Harvest Moon games have always been collectibles in the past because of the cult following, only recently has the series gotten more mainstream attention and thus more games being produced. But since Innocent Life has remained mostly obscure and has a very limited production, this game will most definitely become worth more in the future. I already have a copy of this game and its still untouched factory sealed!
Dont forget Moto GP, the portalbe version of Tourist Trophy, also known as Moto GP, made by Polyphony Digital. That would be a collectible! If it existed!;D
I got the game but i lost the casing ..
Wonder how much that is worth :P
It is a pretty good game, Does feel realistic and the psp control isnt hat great if you play this game for over 30 minutes my hands started to hurt. Nothing beats a good old gamepad.
not completely related: On ps3, there's the "uncensored" version of LBP that can fetch high prices.
