I've been playing Sylphia a lot... while its good, its not really worth its price tag.  I'd say its a $50 game max...

Quit equating a game's price to the quality of gameplay, dammit!

Lol.  I thought I had finally made it to the last level of Soldier Blade the other day (yesterday?) but after watching , apparantly there's yet ANOTHER lever after the boss run guy....  Yeesh, this game gets crazy.

I hear you. But I can't help but comment on the price:entertainment ratio when discussing games. I also include the quality of the soundtrack (since I spend more time listening to game music than actually playing games these days) in my equation.

But, in an effort to make the world a better place, how about this:

BlueBMW (and others):

1. Is Sylphia as engaging as (a) Avenger or (b) Ballistix?

2. How is the Sylphia soundtrack?

Thanks in advance.

Disclaimer: I will not be getting Sylphia for a long, long time. If ever.

I bought a few and got them from hitjapan today.  Energy, which is just terrible..  Heavy Unit, OMG its hard!  Final Soldier, I love it. Mr.Helis Adv, the jury is out on this one...its nice looking tho, and Break In..this is what it is.  a boring little pool game, but I like it..

Today I got three games in the mail which I've been playing, first and most notably Camp California. I also received Raiden and.... Deep Blue...

The screenshots, unfortunately, do not reveal how poorly executed the game is (controls, screen scrolling, battles = cumbersome).

I'm still amazed that folks here have played more than a few minutes of it.

That said, I never let little things like that prevent me from investing hours and hours into a game. I will play Energy and make significant progress in it.

Yes, that scrolling left me  :-k but obviously the control....untill I don¡t play the game by myself I don't  goona be able to judge it.
It's a very cheap Hucard and an action game, that's important because it's playable to me (level of japanese: none)

I think it is worth getting this game for several reasons:

(1) it is cheap
(2) the cover art alone is worth the price of admission
(3) you experience first-hand what everyone has described as a sad, sad PCE game.
(4) you, like me, will be determined to squeeze every bit of entertainment out of the game
(5) you, like me, are a goddamn masochist

Let me think... :-k
the number 5!  ](*,)
HAHAHA! No, really the art it's so cute, but basically be an action game it's the first option to me.

Finished Aoi Blink yesterday and I have managed to get an hour in on Dungeon Explorer.  Not played this one before, so far so good!
