Whoa...I didn't expect you to explode...calm down. :shock:
Well, considering you changed the demeanor of the converstation by throwing out the first insult, I'm rather surprised to see that you are so shocked by the turn that my posts took. I can't think of very many people who aren't going to see this:
However, I would like to thank you for sucking the fun from this topic like a vampire. as anything other than a personal attack. Why should the kid gloves stay on when you've already started tossing out the personal attacks?
I wanted to have a discussion on what games people felt were rare or should I say *hard to find* on a personal level.
Funny, that isn't what this says:
I was trying to think of the three most currently sought after RARE video games. I guess factors for judging this would have to include current asking price for used/new copies of said game, actual number of copies in print, and popularity/reputation, etc.
My vote would go to:
Panzer Dragoon Saga
Suikoden II
Dracula X (Turbo Duo Version)
Honorable mention goes to:
Chrono Trigger (original snes cart)
Valkyrie Profile (not quite rare or extremely popular but pulls a decent buck)
I’m sure I’ve forgotten a bunch, so let’s hear ‘em!
In fact, with the wording you have there, it states rarity above all else.
Suikoden II might not be rare to you, but I sure as hell can't find it anywhere near me (other than eBay) to me, that's rare.
People in the desert can't find water. Does that mean it's rare? Perhaps in the desert, but that doesn't change the fact that around 3/4 of the world is covered of water.
A subjective observation does not define a general rule. Just because you can't find a game doesn't mean it's rare.
I'm sorry, next time I think of doing a topic I'll be sure to qualify the crap out of it so there's no confusion.
Yep, your pleasant disposition shows itself again there. Care for some cheese with that whine?
Please understand that I never meant people to "play the way I want them to". (which I don't think I ever indicated anyway)
If that wasn't your intent, you would have ignored my post and continued on with the thread. Your actions speak differently than your words.
I only reacted to your post because you were trying to narrow and reshape what was meant to be a fun, open topic.
You just got done saying you didn't mena for people to play the way you want them to. You contradict yourself... one sentence after stating something. So did you mispeak or are you just a hypocrite?
I'd be way more forgiving of such a post had you provided an example of a game that matches your criteria.
Considering it was a general contention speaking to the misunderstanding of terms and metrics that others in the thread were using, a specific example wasn't required. If you want one, I'll give you one....
Suikoden 2. Digitpress.com, a site considered to be a dependable reference on matter pertaining to the rarity of games lists Suikoden 2 as a 4 (1 being common and 10 being an ultra rare, one of a kind prototype).
There are over 100+ games on the Playstation alone that are considered more rare than Suikoden 2. Considering that there are so many other games with a rarity greater than it, it is folly to suggest that Suikoden 2 is rare.
Instead you essentially posted a "no, no, no, you're wrong" and that was it.
No, I stated a contention that disagreed with the metrics and standards people were applying. At no point did I ever state no, no, no, RisingZan, you are wrong. There is a difference, and it's not even a subtle one.
You're entitled to you're opinion, no doubt, but I'm rather sure you can voice it with a little more tact, though calling me a "little child" makes me doubt it just a bit.
You are going to lecture me on tact after refering to me as a vampire?
Your hypocracy shines once again. Do as I say, not as I do, eh?
