Malcar: >why choose Phoenix or even look into the VN
I chose it during a time when I was into the series. It was 100% because I couldn't really play anything else (as in, PS2 games), so I settled for whatever, and before I knew it I played most entries.
That said, if you find that surprising, GMG not only knows about it (or used to know), he actually watched somebody else on YT 'play' those years ago.
Birdman: >frauds
That's what happens when you spend too much time in the void of "zero worthwhile Action games to play". That also includes RPGs from the PS2 era.
Now, if only you had told me about Parasite Eve 2 during this period...
...Oh wait, I actually could play some titles. I knew about RE1-RE2, and Doom. Not sure why I never got into these.
Raeng: >has to be something I never played
Of course, Roy. *Whistles*
>NGII is so powerful that it can hijack threads
>and allows other titles to do so
Hmmm... yes. Behold the glory of da bes Action game.
