They are up to nine? The last one I remember seeing was 6 on SFAM, translated to English (stopped following when they didn't bother continuing the series on US SNES). _________________ <img src="http://www.gamersgate.com/ggtagi/2557041" width="225" height="198" border="0" alt="GG Tag"> |

Dragon Quest VIII was a fantastic game, and since IX is also being made by Level 5, I am sure it'll be just as good. _________________ Check me out if you got some time to kill.

Level 5? Aren't they the ones that did Dark Cloud on PS2? _________________ <img src="http://www.gamersgate.com/ggtagi/2557041" width="225" height="198" border="0" alt="GG Tag"> |

Yeah. This is ultimately what I wanted the game for, but I don't really know anything about the multiplayer stuff specifically. I just know that it's there. Dragon Quest 8 was a fantastic game though. I love that series. |

I am picking up the Rogue Galaxy strategy guide at a local used game store for $2 just because I like the artwork. _________________ <img src="http://www.gamersgate.com/ggtagi/2557041" width="225" height="198" border="0" alt="GG Tag"> |

Do you have the game aswell? If you like action rpgs I think you'll enjoy it. Also $2? That's such a great price. _________________ Check me out if you got some time to kill.

Don't even have a PS2, let alone Rogue Galaxy. Just getting the guide because of the artwork at this point. I do want to get the game though, read the multipage spread that Hardcore Gamer did for it and was hooked (reminded me of when I first saw Final Fantasy 9 in Gamefan, wasn't that entranced by FF7 though, too blocky). _________________ <img src="http://www.gamersgate.com/ggtagi/2557041" width="225" height="198" border="0" alt="GG Tag"> |

Dragon Quest is like everything about RPGs that bores the cream cheese out of me haha. The only thing I like is the Akira Toriyama artwork. There's always a Goku and Bulma clone in there somewhere. _________________ www.mondocoolcast.com

Yeah. Random battles and level grinding galore. Not really your thing. I like that kind of thing though. |

Actually I looked it up and the game looks really cool. There aren't random encounters which I actually hate WAY more than the turn based fighting. But I do love the art style and the idea of the multiplayer seems really cool even though it's local only. If it had online multiplayer I'd definitely buy it.
I'd say I'd wait till I find it cheap but DS games never really get cheap. There's just something about this game that makes me want to buy it. I don't know how long I'll be able to keep from getting it.
If/when you do get DQIX let me know what you think about it. _________________ www.mondocoolcast.com

I caved in and bought it. Let me tell my story though! I'll be talking about this on the MCC because I think it's kind of amazing how it played out.
I keep my cash money sitting right under my LCD HDTV...because I pretty much stopped carrying cash 4 years ago and only use my debit card and haven't carried a regular wallet...ever? So when I got that free 360 I had to move my tv so I could get to the back of it and plug some Component cables in. I took the $40 in cash that I had and stuck it somewhere while I was doing vegemite so I wouldn't knock it behind the desk I've got that TV sitting on top of.
Well a few days later I ntoice my cash isn't sitting where it should be so I get pissed and start looking for it. My usual genius trick of "Where would I have put it if I were me?" yielded no results. So about a week goes by and I'm still thinking of places I could've lost it. Like maybe I put it in my change bowl? Nope, behind my desk? Under my bed? I looked everywhere!
So last night I was lying in bed thinking man I kind of want to get that Dragon Quest IX game but I can't afford it...I lost $40 in cash like a dipshit already so if I spend another $35 that's basically $80 I shitted away and I can't afford that vegemite. So I made a deal with my brain, I said brain, if I find that $40 bucks I'll get Dragon Quest IX.
Last night was trash night and I had already taken the trash out. It was 7:11am about the time the trash man usually gets here when my brain stopped being a retard and came up with an idea where that cash wad had gotten to. When I was hooking up that Xbox I was wearing a beat up old pair of shorts with a giant tear in them. I had thrown them away a day or two after getting that free 360. cream cheese! I totally put my wad of cash into my pocket while I was dicking around with my tv, forgot to take the cash out of my pocket and that vegemite very well possibly just got picked up by the garbage mens! So I shoot up outta bed, toss some shoes on and run out to the curb where luckly my trash remained, tore open my trash bag clawed my way through several layers of horrific filth and terror and found those tattered ass short pants clutched my grubby and terrible clawed hand into my pocket...and retrieved my $40 USD!
So I bought Dragon Quest IX. What does it say about my subconscious mind...that at the possibility of new games my brain stops being a dumb ass and decides to remember where I carelessly tossed that damn cash. I seriously suck at keeping cash because I have been a debit card guy for four years and was so excited about the new 360 that I forgot tossing that money wad into a pocket. _________________ www.mondocoolcast.com
