Sigh, Xenogears... Back when I was madly in love with my PS1, I was juggling between multiple games: Suikoden II, Xenogears, Parasite Eve and Lunar: Silver Star Story. Out of these, PE was completed; Xenogears was at the point where Weltall turned evil; Lunar was on 2nd disc and forgot about Suikoden II. Horror happened as my memory card went corrupt! The culprit? One of those stupid 120 block memory cards using compression! Just like most people, I can't find the dedication to go back to those games, since new games (and new systems) have occupied my time. Now everytime anyone mentions any of those games, some part of me dies inside...

You're a meanie. Now I'm half past dead from the mention of all 4...

Trying to rush home to receive phone calls is quite a bit*h. Shenmue is set in the 80s after all. Strangely, the 80s were full of futuristic trinkets like Sega Saturn consoles and capsule toys of games from beyond! Wait, what?

I think I wasted all of Ryo's allowance on capsule toys. Even when I got a job I kept plunging money into the the capsule toy machines. That thing is pure evil I tell ya. I wonder if Fuku-san and Ine-san knows about Ryo's crippling addiction...

Oh man! Moero! Justice Gakuen! I have never, ever seen the Japanese cover to the game. Did Sony Wings ever carry that title? Tekken 3 and Soul Edge used be quite common in 1998. No spinecard?
