Of course, the N64 F-Zero looked great, so surely they could have made it look at least that good??Bryan Ochallahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16256591698209804728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-33444395974038103112011-12-09T01:59:01.425-08:002011-12-09T01:59:01.425-08:00Hi Bryan.

I've definitely had my eye on the DS remakes for a while now -- just haven't picked them because ... well, because I've either been broke or I've been spending my money on other things. Still, I'd like to pick them up at some point, as I've heard great things about them.<br /><br />As for DQ7: I've heard some bad things about it, too, but I still want to try it. I actually like the look of it, plus it's a PS1 game, which for some weird reason is a real plus in my mind.<br /><br />Have you played DQ9, by the way? If so, what did you think of it? I absolutely loved it, but I know some folks who are long-time fans of the series didn't like it much.Bryan Ochallahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16256591698209804728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-35210132911558077622011-12-08T08:23:18.615-08:002011-12-08T08:23:18.615-08:00Simon: I can kind of see why they didn't relea...Simon: I can kind of see why they didn't release an F-Zero game on the DS -- graphics capabilities and all that -- but why not on the Wii? Very strange. Here's hoping they pull their heads out of their butts this generation and give us some more F-Zero action!Bryan Ochallahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16256591698209804728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-85649308764285283132011-12-08T08:21:49.379-08:002011-12-08T08:21:49.379-08:00Ah, I thought you may have meant FFVI.

Why not give us both? :P<br /><br />As for After Years being fun: Yes, it definitely was.

Really loved DQ8, one of the finest PS2 RPGs and my introduction to the series. I heard DQ7 is a bit of a slog and a lot of people don't like it. There's too much padding. I've heard that you don't even get access to the job system until you are 25 hours into the game!Retr0gamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05690223519107108541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-24673271295040298492011-12-08T03:35:02.957-08:002011-12-08T03:35:02.957-08:00I am also unable to fathom why Nintendo seem to ha...I am also unable to fathom why Nintendo seem to have lost interest in the F-Zero series - it's my favourite of their IP's!

Also, FFIV already has a spin-off: FFIV The After Years. It's got some issues, but it's nice enough.
