I started with the Famicom versions first, but the hands down the best version of the first two Ys games is either the PC Ys I & II Complete which has a full English translation patch or that of the Ys Books I & II for TG-16 Turbo Duo or Wii's Virtual Console. The DS version is fun, but...

What is the point of posting such a stupid thread in the first place? -SkyeWelse

Ys is a fantastic series. But it doesn't seem to be a series for everyone. Either people find it to be mediocre or they love it and want to play every game / version in the series. It also has fantastic music btw. : ) -Thomas

Well folks, Legacy of Ys was released for DS today. Ys is one of my favorite game series of all time and this is the first time since the release TG-16/Duo Release of Ys Books I & II that we've gotten both games together in a single package. If you've been curious about the Ys series, but...

Oh yeah. Chalk's been one of my favorite indie games for awhile now. Good stuff. : ) -Thomas

Hey Zonder. Good to see you around again. : ) It's been awhile. We're in the process of cooking up some new features for the forums, but it'll be one hell of a barbaque party when it's done. : ) -SkyeWelse

Same here. I must have finished at least five playthroughs of Illusion of Gaia that I can remember. Such a great game. -SkyeWelse

I played Kid Icarus before watching the "kickimus maximus" Captain N Show. That show is surely cheesy as it could be now, but back in the day it was pretty swell. The whole series is now on DVD too. Like Shirofan said, those with older dispositions would surely remember him as a very classic...

I see that this thread was moved back from "The S.P.O.T." where I had moved it earlier. If you all can recover the thread and put it back on topic from what doublethink had originally created the thread for, it can stay, otherwise it needs to be moved back. The thread started out with good...

I still need to finish Terraenigma someday. I left off right after I fought the battle against Bloody Mary, least I think that was the name of the boss. She was quite difficult I remember. The game was really great though. Beautiful music and graphics. -SkyeWelse

Nothing with obvious spoilers though such as the King one. We don't want some new CS fans to drop by after just getting into the game only to discover from someone's user rank that a certain character doesn't live to tell the tale. -SkyeWelse

Well, my family is part English and part German, but technically I'm American through and through. I do use a European spelling for certain words though such as Humour and Armour, simply because it reads nicer than Humor and Armor, and I do tend to spell out et cetera rather than abbreviate it...

Thanks for the comments. Yeah I kind of chopped off the side of the top banner graphic a little early thinking that it might help with the table resizing for some of the lower resolution users. It ended up not making any difference in the long run and I just forgot to upload the original image...

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll see if I can change the hyperlinks to another recognizable color at some point. I've had a few requests to possibly use this current default template as an optional template since it doesn't look nice on lower resolutions. Instead, another template might be...

Well, what format is your avatar image that you are getting an error? If it is something other than .gif, .jpg, or .png, you may want to convert the image to one of those standard web based formats.

It's hard to say since i've not yet tried it out myself to see, but from the youtube video it does seem to play like Zelda and you do gain the ability to explore a world and gain new powers through your journey. RPGs in my book do not necessarily have to rely on actual level ups or character...

Welcome the the forums. : ) -SkyeWelse

Wow, you're right. I had never seen those before. What an interesting collection of unused Colossi! There were some designs in there such as the spider, earthworm and boar that seemed even more interesting than a few that were in the game. Maybe they just ran out of time and originally planned...

Hehe, not quite. Anniversaries apply typically to release dates... and marriage. : ) -SkyeWelse

That'd be fun to get a hold of that Shadow of the Colossus demo disc, climb the top of the tower and see what's up there. I don't think I'll want to get spoiled from Youtube on that one. That'll make it worth hunting down the demo. : ) Yes! I do remember the Luigi myth in Super Mario 64. I...

If I hadn't just gotten back into Animal Crossing with AC: City Folk, and if my fiancee and I hadn't just bought Wii Fit that we seem to be playing everyday (Also We Cheer as she plays it constantly) then our Wii wouldn't be getting much use. For the longest time we let the Wii sit on the...

I've never heard of it until now, but it does look interesting. Here's the website for it in case anyone is interested in checking it out. http://www.wesnoth.org/ I doub't I'd personally have the time to play a massively-multiplater strategy game of that caliber though. -SkyeWelse

Oh yeah, I've heard that as well. So that makes two myths to come out of that game. Interesting. I hope to make a game that spawns a myth like that someday. : ) -SkyeWelse

Yeah, me neither. I suppose I "could" ban you if you really wanted. But it'd be kind of pointless if you didn't... well, you know... earn it. -SkyeWelse

Very nice! I'll have to give these a try sometime when I get my PC back in shape. I'm using a Macbook as my primary computer at the moment. Without having played the games yet, I would like to say that I really enjoy your style of designing the various sprites for your shtm'ups. It would be...
