Well if I haven't heard of it, I doubt it's memorable enough to warrant a remake.

Well, since the DS is now officially past-gen, none of them. The PS3 and 360 both have software libraries precision-crafted to offend as many people as possible and the Wii still has important 1st party titles ahead so I can't really comment.

The fourth and sixth installment are the only ones out of these ones that are really anything special. While the fourth one is definitely compelling, it's number six's party customisation, ability assigning and witter script that win the day.

At last, he reviews something anyone's actually heard of. Shame it has to be as overblown as always, not giving much in the way of context.

I just won't be able to afford one until late summer at the earliest. No console gets any reallygood games until at least a year after launch, anyway.

Let's see,

Radiant Historia is being made by Atlus, so it looks likely to have lots of grind for grind's sake, but they always seem to get dark undertones right from what I've heard. DQ6 is coming from one of our medium's best writers, so I guess it looks to be a more inticing offer.

I don't even need to play most of these suggestions to hold up Final Fantasy 6. Few other games reward you by making you feel inadequate. And this is pretty much the only English-language game from this era to pull character sprites so well.

What is it that people love about Chrono Trigger? It does everything wrong. The menus are awkward, the battles are completely trial-and-error, the script is paper-thin and the art-direction is underwhelmingly sedate, especially for this pedigree. Getting Yuji Horii to pen a game for Squaresoft is like Chuck Norris and Bruce Lee fighting aliens in a film directed by Tim Burton, how do you get that wrong?

Of all the old Nintendo properties that haven't had Wii outings, Kid Icarus is the least deserving of one. The reason every other one of their second-stringers got loads of sequels was because they carved their own niche rather than just pretending to be something else like this series did in the '80s. I'm still baffled as to why Nintendo chose this to hype up the 3DS instead of something like F-zero.

If they had brought Vesperia over, I would have bought a PS3 for Vesperia and other games too.Metamania
I'm sure they did. I remember there was a big argument over what it was released for.

What doesn't make sense about the Graces announcement is that they've been teasing us for the last few days, only to tease us some more. Why not just hold a press conference or release a video on your website, Namco?
