Christmas presents

Mon Nov 14, 2005 2:39 am

My mom wants to know what game I want for christmas, and wants me to find one for my brother. This year I'm kinda disapointed from the selection of new games, so I don't know what to get for myself or my brother.

Can anyone help? I have Playstation, PS2, Gamecube and Gameboy Advance among others and many games (I have a full list here: http://www.gamespot.com/pages/profile/games_table.php?mode=own&user=mogster500)

I like RPG and strategy games, and my brother likes shooting and Diablo/Starcraft games.

For both of you if you havent already tried them the command and concour series is great... get the generals edition. It has a sweet online service for free and if you get good enough you can rise through the ranks quickly.

If you already have that though try black and white 2, the ratchet and clank series, guild wars, and maby some mario games for GBA...

I don't have gameboy DS, and my graphics card isn't that great so no games that require T&L.

You could always ask for a decent graphics card and/or Nintendo DS for xmas

Why not buy X-Men Legends II (It's on all systems)? I heard it got great reviews; you may want to check it out.

I can do RPG's...

Baten Kaitos: Something Something (I forget the rest :P)

Legaia 2: Duel Saga (Great game, hard to find).
Disgaea:Hour of Darkness (if you can find it, and I suggest this before the other Nippon Ichi games)
Atelier Iris
Suikoden III
Suikoden IV
Ark the Lad: Twilight of Spirits

The top is gamecube and the others are PS2

(Most of those should be cheap as well, aside from Atelier Iris
