And especially those NEO GEO arcade cabinets.  There must've been a really good SNK distributor in the Dallas area because I saw those things everywhere I went!

I first knew this game as Final Fantasy Extreme, as Square US was considering bringing FFV out to the US under that name for players who wanted a more difficult challenge.  But they decided to send over FF6 instead, a good choice for me.

I first played FFV on that PlayStation collection.  I lost interest after changing a job class, only to not have any good armor for the class I changed to, and then would be forced to grind even more for money to pay for the armor I would need.  Plus this was when I was in college and was drifting away from RPGs anyway.  Maybe if FFV had come out when I was in high school, I would've liked it more.

So I'll just stick with my favorite FF games: FF6, FF9, and FF4.  Have you played any of those?

Yes it wouldn't have been too hard to dump those ROMs on the collection as well.  Then it would've been an amazing collection.  But at least they got the two best games on here.

The games are so good that the drawbacks really don't deter me too much.  After beating the first game on this collection, I thought to myself, "Dang it's been a long time since I played a game I liked this much!"  They are REALLY good!

Well for the life of me, I can't find a way to play my import version in English.  And I'm pretty good about finding that stuff.

Did you know that Namco X Capcom has connections to the Super Robot Wars games, too?

But if you don't hit notes accurately with drums in real life, eventually you'll go off the beat.  How do you feel about playing Taiko Drum Master with the accuracy?

Heck, even into the 90s, my friend and I would walk over to the local gas station and video rental places to play Street Fighter 2, Fatal Fury, Captain Commando, etc.

I've played and finished both Zelda "Warriors" games and I played a little bit of the Dragon Quest one.  I don't have any interest in the Fire Emblem Warriors game, though.  I think they should make a Kirby Star Warriors game!

Yeah you can't talk about 1980 without Pac-Man!  It's just not allowed!  Glad they fixed the problems with the Xbox versions.  I can't wait until the end of the month, when Pac-Man World: Re-Pac comes out!  I will be writing a whole blog about that one in the next month or so.

Yeah I was in band in high school so I know what you mean about those games not REALLY feeling like you were in a real band.  But they could still be fun.

I only remember seeing the SkyKid arcade game once, but it was at the front entrance to our local WalMart, so I played it quite a bit.  Other games that were at the front at that WalMart include Ikari Warriors 2: Victory Road, Toobin, and my favorite: Super Pac-Man.
