Not only is FF6 my favorite RPG ever, it's also one of my top five favorite games of all time. Plus, my favorite FF character and villain are from that game: Terra and Kefka. I really liked Chrono Trigger as well. Unfortunately, I didn't like Earthbound.
Yeah I got the Super Mario G&W but haven't opened it yet. I hope I can get the Zelda one and Metroid Dread!
Only two VR games I REALLY want to play is Psychonauts: Rhombus of Ruin and the new Sam & Max VR game.
I got the special edition of that SNK Anniversary Collection and wrote about it a while back.

Yeah that would be awesome. Look like they do just VR stuff now.
Yeah I can understand why people would be worried when Microsoft buys a company. They did that with Twisted Pixel, one of my favorite developers during the 360 days. Twisted Pixel was an Austin, TX-based company who did 360 games like 'Splosion Man, The Maw, Comic Jumper, and Loco Cycle. But Microsoft kind of abandoned them. They're still around, as I just learned, but I don't think they're quite the same. Hopefully they won't do that with Double Fine. But at least we'll get Psychonauts 2 from them before anything happens. And I'm glad it's coming to the PS4 as well.
Well for me personally, the Golden Age of RPGs was with the SNES. That's when I was really into RPGs anyway. I can understand why people would say the PSOne era was great for RPGs, too, but that's when I slowly got out of RPGs. They're just too long nowadays. But I think we can all agree that the entirety of the 90s had a lot of great RPGs.
I was thinking about other "Golden Age" eras the other day. Like how the 80s had the best arcade games, but the 90s had the best console games. And Namco's Golden Age was probably in the early 80s arcades, but their "Silver Age" was probably on the PSOne.
I never got into tower defense games. Although I did play one based on the Regular Show cartoon but it was like a reverse tower defense game for iPad. Only one I've ever beaten.
The first Monster Hunter Stories is on iPad? Wow. I'd play the second one if I didn't have so much on my plate now.
I may rag on BoTW a lot, but I spent 65 hours on it and beat it, so I must've liked it somewhat. How many Divine Beasts have you tackled so far?
Well if you remember any of those cartoony games, please let me know.
Yeah back then the Age of Empires folks were called Ensemble Studios and were based in Dallas. It was real interesting to see their game before they even had a publisher! And then to see how popular it got later.
