<r> <B><s>[b]</s>Front Mission<e>[/b]</e></B> - definitely some old-school tastes here. The graphics aren't up to today's standards but if you can look past the fact that it's an SNES (SFC in Japan) game then it's got some measure of depth to it. If you like mech, turn-based combat then it's well wo...

<r> You may not like Japanese Strategy games but here's a good list of them for several consoles. Some of these are good, some are not, some are turn based, some are real time, some are strategy games, some are strategy RPGs. It's a general list that somewhat matches the topic title.<br/> <br/> An "...

calling you on your attitude that is high and mighty

RH, look in your posting history for an example of such attitude.

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: JudgeDredd<br/> <br/> The reason the movie industry particularly grates me so is, as an example, I went to Lord of the Rings III and loved it.

<t> Criteron DVDs don't have ads on them. You put the DVD in the player and the main menu comes up almost instantly. It's so much better than the bargain bin DVDs that don't let you skip the adverts. There are tricks to that, of course, hit stop after the player begins (or even power off if stop is ...

<t> There's one kind of "overpriced" DVD I'm happy to pay the cost for and those are Criterion editions of movies that I like. They seem to put out a superior quality product in both remastering and often in extras that count for something. As for Blue Ray, I'm just glad I'm never an early adopter o...

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: Veldor<br/> <br/> <br/> Beyond any over-anime(ation) in the game I don't think I'd be able to get past struggling with the likely akward controls that any game console would have when it comes to strategy games.

Your reply makes no sense. Grow up. Units are controlled by the player, if that is what you consider yourself then go for it.

<r> I've been quiet about this title up here for a couple of reasons, mainly I've just been waiting for someone else to mention it.<br/> <br/> Some of you may remember a game for the XBox called <B><s>[b]</s>Dai Senryaku VII<e>[/b]</e></B> and others might remember an earlier (better, IMO) game in t...

<t> Sadly some of the best console strategy games are Japanese-only. Remember Uncharted Waters? There's a new version for both PSP and DS that is quite fun and Japanese only (Daikoukai Jidai IV Rota Nova). The Daisenryaku Portable and Daisenryaku DS games are Japanese only but fortunately one of the...

<t> I have the game, been playing it a bit and have made it through the first two campaign missions. It's got a few flaws but is also quite fun.<br/> <br/> Among the games I've been playing lately on the DS (on the road for the past two weeks) are: Sangokushi Taisen DS, Daisenryaku DS, Custom Robo A...

Klingon Bird of Prey and any Romulan ship pretty much. It's been SOOO long though that I'm probably forgetting all of the great alternative ships I used to play with. Damn what fun. If I only had that kind of time nowadays!

I agree that a standardization of UI could benefit the company but reaching that standard is such a ...

Mekons, Wilco, Brian Eno, The Strokes, a mix of those and some others...right now.

Well, you did mention Big Blue and thus you did bring up the idea of chess first (except for one earlier post that mentioned Chess earlier). If you want an apology I'm afraid you'll have to look inwardly for that (which should be no trouble given your proclivities). ^_^
