However, it is upon us! I ended up not really having much time this weekend, or this week, but I'm gonna try to cram this poll in here, and "patiently" await the results. They better be good.
So, I'm providing five (!) whole options for telling the cold, wind, and snow to go F-- itself, this January, and those options are:
Games that start with “Shenmue-“
You know it, you love it: It's Shenmue! What better way to kick off the release year (potentially) of Shenmue III, than by playing these crowning jewels of the Dreamcast, and gaming. Now ported to modern systems for your convenience.
Konami Loves Genesis/Mega Drive
With the release of Sunset Riders, in 1992, Konami kicked off a short but sweet love affair with the Genesis that spawned such bountiful fruit as to be legendary. Let us recount that midsummer night's dream together.
JRPGs for Lovers* +1
You can't truly receive da pawa' in an RPG, if it isn't a +1, and there's no better +1 than Monster World IV. So have at it, with one of these finest possible examples of JRPGs on the PS1 and PS2, then chase it with a nice romp through Monster World.
Capcom Loves Dreamcast
Hard to imagine a more lovely couple than Capcom and the Dreamcast. Easily the largest group of games in any of these categories, and there's more hair-straightening, finger-blistering action here than you can shake an arcade stick at.
Falcom : [Kiya && Hashimoto; !Faxanadu]
Falcom's Dragon Slayer series is a hallmark of the golden era of Japanese PCs, and while their slugger, Kiya, was clearing out the bases, Falcom had another solid hitter in Hashimoto, with his Ys series. So let's play the game's that built Falcom, while its two golden-boys were still under the same roof. (Faxanadu is not relevant. No Faxanadu.)
