I do not expect the old community to return. It would be nice, and I would be overjoyed if any of the old members even just stopped by to say "hi" once

Hi

but 7 years (closer to 8, really) is a long time. I'm sure the ship has sailed for most if not all of them. After all, who really cares about Excel Saga in 2020?

Honestly, sounds like you had a wild ride, but returning to this forum and seeing so many usernames that I used to interact with brought up some nostalgic feelings.
Weirdly enough, this forum and the people on it meant a lot to me back in the day.

I can't remember much past people's names (yeah,  I remember foggle, micki! And lord il) but I still recognize almost all the names. Not like we had a lot of new members join us back then, it was mostly us regulars that came here.

I'm Squeeze, aka Masou as I believe that was my original name on these forums, or perhaps the forum we had before these.

Figured I saw foggle reintroduce himself, I may as well too.

I'm still friends with jinzaki, and have hung out a few times with Navean though  been a few years since we last text.

Lost contact with all of the rest of you. Recently started buying a bunch of retro manga to collect and remembered this site.

so the series comes out 1 volume per year now eh?
i managed to find scanlations up to chapter 30 online, but i'm fairly certain that i owned atleast up to volume 6 or 7...maybe 8?
hell i can't remember...

I really want to pick up the manga again and get the storyline ...i want the entire storyline (seeing this on netflix made me wanna get it again...and reminded me of you guys :D)

I'm not gonna bother paying 5$ per book (including shipping) however i'm afraid...so if any of you want to "lend" you rcollection or let me buy it for a relatively cheaper set price for all of it i'd do that D:

I miss this series, but it's unlikely i'll ever manage to pick it up again and get the story :/

Damn, I really complained about paying $5 a volume?
Now I can't find volumes 26 or 37 for less than $200

Hey everyone! I know this forum is more or less entirely inactive,

Screw being inactive, I'm freaking back!

Amazing job keeping this forum alive, goggle.

Took some effort getting beach into my account, but damn there are so many names here I recognize.

Ah, I put fortify sneak on everything.
Unfortunately this includes dragons.  Which kind of sucks, they completely ignore me even when I chase after them shooting dragonrend and arrows.

Even when I hit them with dragon rend, they just fly away like I never hit them.
Dicks.

SKYRIM

Holy crap, I have played this game for over 250 hours since Nov. 12th.  It is like having a second job, except you enjoy it.

It's as buggy as Bethesda's reputation, and kind of gets choppy/slows down on the PS3 after a while, but I don't care.  It's just too damn much fun.  I haven't played any other game since...

E^D

how'd you do that with enchanting? O.o

I loved Skyrim.  I got to the level cap of 81 and still had more to explore.  Enchanting is broken though, being able to cast spells at 0mp cost made the game quite easy.

Not a terrible list, but of course my personal opinions do differ.

However I think you should lighten up a bit during your reviews.  You sound too serious.  Again just me.

Anyways if you want more publicity on your reviews, check out raptr.com 
this website caters to people who are their own reviewers in a much better way than gamespot could ever hope to do.
Then again maybe I just don't like gamespot, but I do enjoy the atmosphere better here.  Anyways I think you'll find you'll get a lot more publicity there than you do on phantasy star forums or here (no offense to excel saga forums).

Unfortunately I only know you on here and on PSU forums, so I don't know where else you frequent or where else you upload.

if they're continuing off where the original anime left off (which i've heard they are) then i'm happy :]

I heard they were doing the same with Hellsing, and a very very slight rumor they might do it with Gantz too

ok in that case
[spoiler]you weren't playing as the real Aya the entire time, you were really Eve.  Pissed me off the entire time after i figured it out...which was pretty quick -_-[/spoiler]

After 11 long years, we finally got a 3rd Parasite Eve game.
http://blip.tv/play/hoFPgrCYJgA

Worst aspect for me? Not on the PS3. But perhaps this is a good thing. Probably fooling myself but maybe PE 3rd Birthday on the PSP platform is a mere primer, a taste for something bigger and better around the corner. The first two games were very enjoyable as they were unique. A proper sequel to compliment them would make my day.

i was so pissed it wasn't on the ps3.

there's also something else about it that pissed me off but i can't say without spoiling the story for some :/

To expand on Soske's and Foggle's thoughts on Alice: Madness Returns:  I totally agree.

While the game may not be very advanced, on a technical and gameplay level, I think this is the perfect example of video games as a storytelling medium.

I just paused the game, to tell you all that it's really great fun, totally engaging, and just gorgeous (if not overall very difficult, while, at othertimes, intentionally difficult).  I'm also fighting with the camera, all the time!

I'm also a sucker for truly awesome DLC, and got a bunch of freaking sweet costumes and weapons, and, so... I'm already overpowered, due to effects.  X^D  ...or I can rock a horrible, freaky, living-flesh dress! ....or have a clock-work arm!?  The Caterpillar and White Rabbit suits are also cute has hell on Alice, while completely in keeping with its own morbid charm.

American McGee's Alice...  Started it, but felt it was a little too touchy for my tastes.  I said "screw it", and just went into the sequel.

E^D

just sayin i waited and waited for A:MR to come out ever since AM:A came out.
Im happy to say i got every achievement on the game and the storytelling was absolutely perfect in the game.  I hoped for a more...explanatory ending (i hate endings where you just have to assume what comes next... i know its a popular way of storytelling, but i'd like to SEE teh good ending, not assume it)

the rest of the story was perfect however.
I'm picking up Catherine tomorrow.

so the series comes out 1 volume per year now eh?
i managed to find scanlations up to chapter 30 online, but i'm fairly certain that i owned atleast up to volume 6 or 7...maybe 8?
hell i can't remember...

= best movie ever.

if you have ever played a game in your life.
go watch it.
