What was wrong with sin? The game kicked ass. and the anime wasnt half bad.

Actually I'm not sure. Haven't watched it in at least 3 years (and even more with the game). Well the game itself felt very... sub-par. And just didn't quite measure up to say Deus Ex... I think I was playing that around then. As for the anime, I'm more than guessing it was a genre thing... or I only heard the dub and that ruined the whole thing for me.

I saw ep1 of the Ragnarok anime.

Not the Manatei Loki one, but based off Rag Online.

At first glance, not as good as the manga.

A little earlier Sin was running on the original quake engine. the store release was buggy so you had to download a patch. ONce done though the game was really fun. The anime just followed the story line of the game.

Where did you find it? And what was so bad about it? Even though the warning I'd still like to see it just based on the fact it is Ninja Gaiden. I just saw(I use saw loosely, I skimmed through it) the Chrono Trigger anime and it didn't even have Crono in it, the only character from the game was the robot. I was pissed.

How about Duck Hunt? :lol:

Okay, sorry. I still think King of Fighters would make a great series, I don't think KOF '94 had much of a plot, but once you get into '96, things get a lot more interesting.

How about Secret of Mana? If it were done right, it would make a great anime movie.
Probably too busy to be here right now.

I'll say Final Fantasy 6; if done right (which is slim to none :? ), it'll be a pretty good 52 episode series consisting of 2 seasons each with 26 episodes. Seiken Densetsu 3 (I thinks it's also called Secret of the Mana 2) would do also, but I'm worried about characters' stories since it's different for each character. Chrono Trigger NEEDS to be a series; those FMVs for the game look really good even though it's created by the same guys who created Dragonballs/Z/GT.

FF6 is one of the greatest fictional stories ever told. :wink: If an anime could actually stick somewhere even close to the same plot, it would be amazing!

I just picked up the Galerians: Rion movie, it was CG-animated and was pretty much the entire game in movie form, with a couple of added scenes here and there. They did a great job, and my brain still hasn't recovered yet...

Nobody has played Breakdown it seems..... :cry:


Damn good game, its just not getting good exposure.

Oh and its made by NAMCO, and its recent, so it might have a chance.


I suggest that Xbox owners at least, the very least, rent this game. The story is absolutely incredible, yes cliched at points, but a very gripping story.

Go play it now. And hope for a movie. Or anime. Or both.

I like video games!

Lesse... there are a few video games that I would probably be pretty excited about anime versions coming out. Such as....

Devil May Cry
Desgaea
Clock Tower
Kingdom Hearts
Legend of Zelda

hmm.... that's all I can think of off the top o' me head.
