VGD doesn't stock it, NCS is out, and I couldn't find it on Himeya or Japan Video Games either.

Lil'help?

And what the Hell kind of game is Lost Golem?

NCS has been restocking the game...so put an order in for it and you may get it sometime soon...they just recently got more in and then sold out...but since it says "restock soon" and not "sold out"--you may have a chance. I'm ordering one now...I've put it off long enough.

I'd like to add Puyo Puyo 4 as a great DC game. Addictive puzzle game, great graphics, cool music, and a 4-player mode!

TSS is a must have as well...and thanks to the options menu you can completely fix the slowdown problem of the original Neo Geo version...

Yeh Puyo Puyo 4 kicks arse. If you're a Puyo fan you'll surely enjoy it. There are tonnes of modes and options. I don't even know what half of them are... Japanese menus.. sheesh...

You should all own Culdcept II (Culdcept Second) by now, especially since it got a $30 re-release. Do a search here at TNL on it and read up. A definate must-own.

Nothing but a few opinions:

Napple Tale- seems promising but the language barrier is smacking me in the face. You'll definitely need a FAQ for it. The control seems a bit stiff too...

Bomber Hehhe- A interesting change of pace, one of those quirky Japanese games that's worth a look here and there. Basically you watch some wacked out pencil sketches scream at each other then arrange explosives in a building with regards to noise, property damage, and actual building destruction. It's to play around with though the mini games included are pretty boring.

Tako No Marine- A nice little puzzler that I really can't offer much of a opinion on as I'm stuck on a early level. *Groan*

The Lost Golem- Very simple looking and playing game, you push blocks or doors. Save the King and destroy all blocks on the play field. I found it entertaining.

Plus Plumb- Puzzler with high learning curve, a decent challenge for puzzle buffs though.

Super Puzzle Fighter 2 Turbo- Don't spend outlandish sums on the PSX version when the DC version is cheaper and packs a few new bits.

Zero Gunner 2- It is a bit easy, but it's pretty much DC's only shooter without bullets everywhere. The graphics aren't up to Ikaruga (it's a model 3 title) but for the most part it's a good looking and unique shooter.

Frame Gride- Very in-depth mech title, and one of my favorite From games. The camera tends to be a bit close though and a FAQ or guide is definitely handy.

L.O.L. (Lack of Love)- Adventure game where you are born as a creature on a planet where terraforming is beginning. The game's goal is to evolve, how you do that is by helping fellow creatures and exploring your enviroment. Presented with 3D characters on 2D (overhead view) backdrops, the game has almost no language barrier. It's a love or hate game though, and I love it.

Black Matrix AD- DC's answer to quality Strategy-RPG. Great presentation and I've heard a great story (Thank you SOA for declining localization of this game). A FAQ would be required though.

It is a bit easy

I shed a tear of confusion every time I see this.

Jack the difficulty up on ZG2. Stop mashing the continue button lika a 14-year-old that just discovered masturbation, and you'll see that it's quite a challenge.

Oh yeah, play for score sissies

Assumptions aren't always a good thing. I NEVER continue in shooters. Though your analogy is quite funny. I can't speak for anyone else, but even at a higher difficulty the game is still easy(at least compared to other shooters). Anytime I can do halfway decent at a shooter I know it must be easy because I am far from good at the genre. I'm still far from an expert at the game though. Oh, and I do play for score. I guess maybe I should say, "It's not hard enough" rather than saying it's too easy.

Btw, ncs put up a blurb that they'll be getting Napple Tale restock in this week, for those interested.

This one is hard to find now, but http://sega.jp/dc/schedule.html lists Black Matrix AD as getting a re-release on Oct 31. Just in case anyone wants it...

Is there any chance SC5 part 2 (PS2 version) will come out in the US? Or is that officially canceled at this point? Also does anyone know of any differences between the PS2 and DC versions?
