Best Japan and Pal Games?

Rainbow Cotton looks wonderful, Neo mentioned it and took some screenshots, I'd be pretty tempted to pick that up if I ever had the money!

For some reason I could never play all the way through rainbow cotton.Only made it to like the 4 th stage.I hate that the aiming reticule always resets to the center.Its quite the pretty game with diverse looking stages.

@Ultra
I'm a huge Armored Core fan, I even liked the newer ones a bit . Besides the little drones that really relied on good crystals and could be better than others I never cared for the rest of the parts that you could make. It seemed like I couldn't build a better weapon or better legs for example but rather just a better element with a slightly different look that is more effective against other mechs. I could be wrong since I didn't get too far but it just turned me off from it. I remember I would always use the dual machine guns in Armored Core: Masters of the Arena. They weren't the most expensive or necessarily the best but my play style fit them perfectly and I really wish that feeling carried over to Frame Gride.

fair enough I personally liked the item creation but nevermind. I need to try out the translated version!

AC was awesome, after the first I wasn't that big a fan of the ps2 ones but the xbox ones have been good, 4 and for answer were pretty awesome! If I do some ac1 I might just capture it and upload

[BrianC]

definitely do! I've played Masters of the Arena, the ps2 one and 4. I personally loved all of them even if they lost a bit of spirit with each new addition (I felt they got a bit lazy). And don't take my criticisms of FG the wrong way, I could totally see how someone would like it, it just wasn't my thing

No way! I never prefer an arcady style game to a more in depth action game, or are you purely talking about graphics?

[CD AGES]

I'm gonna have to agree with Neohound on account of VOOT being the better game. Regardless of VOOT arcade nature, it's one heck of a deep game! Very technical and plenty to ultimately master!

[DCUltrapro]

no way! you guys are nuts, VOOT just irritated the hell outta me and theres nothing more to it other than 8 or so arcade battles! Still if you prefer that type of game then fair enough, I guess I prefer a more story driven, action adventure style game

[CD AGES]

If that's all you see in VOOT, then you lack to see the bigger picture. The games true nature lies in it's comptetitive nature thru it Vs mode with a human opponent with equal knowledge of the game. The game itself does a marvelous job of creating a well paced mech simulator especially with a pair of Twin sticks, it's unrivaled. But yes, to each their own I suppose...

[DCUltrapro]

well there you are, what are the chances of me, a 29 year old who is engaged and living with my fiance, finding someone in my social circle who not only owns and has played or at least has a working knowledge of VOOT, or is interested in learning it with me, or has the time to do so with me? Most of my friends/family are either married, have kids or both! So thats why I prefer something that has a single player mode I can sink my teeth into and won't drive me up the wall in frustration lol
