I've never liked that about gradius/parodius even though I love the games (the latter especially, just such a fun title).

Ah, The Thing. Now there's a game I always meant to play but never got round to. The trust mechanics sounded like an interesting spin on a well worn formula.zonipoi wrote:I played through SOS: Final Escape and The Thing last year and enjoyed both greatly. Both have old and stiff controls but tons of atmosphere and especially SOS felt so fresh with the unique setting and no guns. Been on the lookout for the sequel Raw Danger for ages but I'm pretty sure it didn't get an UK release and haven't been able to find a euro copy with both a decent price and decent shipping from Italy/France/Spain. Ace Combats are still amazing and look great. Preferred 4 to 5 for IMO better story but both are great fun. Mr Moskeeto was fun for a while but gave me motion sickness. PS2 (and PS1) both have amazing libraries full of unique games that don't really get released anymore. Still find new games I've never heard of that I want to try someday.
