Never finished this like 6 years ago, so im back on it to get 100% before the third is released...
 
Because I just finished this 100% recently, by Rare also...
 
And I am somehow playing and beating this game on optimal settings on my PC, it is fantastic!

You're missing out I'd say, some of the "Nintendo Franchise" stuff is brilliant, but I digress.

If you're a fan of old-OLD-school RPGs, like Wizardry, or maybe Rogue/nethack/etc, check out Izuna and Etrian Odyssey.  Advance Wars is also f**king brilliant, and if you can find it, Mazes of Fate (for GBA, playable on DS) is a lost gem.  Etrian Odyssey is definitely one to go for first, though, most definitely.
 
Well i dont have a NDS yet so i cant say for sure but i will buy one soon and Castlevania ,Metroid & Advance Wars seem to be the best games yet, i stil hold on to my old GBA since they still reales games for it it seem to be far from dead so im not in a hurry to get a NDS yet. Tongue Planing to buy the FF I, II, IV, V & VI remakes next. Big%20smile
 
I just got Castlevania:Portrait of Ruin today and am going to play it for the first time when I offline.I have heard pretty good buzz about the game and the reviews are pretty good,so I took the chance and bought it blind.
 
Hold on to your GBA games,you can also play them on the DS.

Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin is -really- good.  It's definitely an action-oriented adventure with RPG elements (inventory, money, stats), but there are plenty of times when you need to use your head.  It's also one of the more gorgeous 2D games around.

In a few weeks I'll be selling my Xbox 360 in order to buy better audio equpment. Wink

But to compensate, I should be getting a SNES and a N64 from a friend soon so I can buy old games and enjoy games from the best era again (instead of just ROMs). Big%20smile

...I'm not Ricardo, but I can personally say it's awesome.  It's a spiritual sequel to the Boktai games on the GBA (in fact, if you have one of them in the slot, you can use its sun sensor), it's by Konami and Kojima Studios, totally great isometric action.
