Well whatever you're more in the mood for at the moment. I preferred Resi 4, and if graphics are your thing it wins on every count. It is shorter, but, in my opinion, more fun.

And how you could agree with this gimboid, Chipseh, I have no idea.

i agree. depressing considering its a DC import, the now dead console. to be fair, the GC version is apparently far superior e.g. less random encounters, that was the main criticism for the DC version. maybe if we're lucky sega will make a sequel, there was rumours about one a while ago. whether its production was haulted due to DC's death isn't known, but i hope the unfinished version is lying in some sega developers desk, waiting for people to realise what a class game arcadia is. at this late stage in the cubes life, i don't think arcadia will achieve much more than its cult status.
one of the few games that nintendo buy the exclusive rights to doesn't sell well enough for a sequel to be made, eventhough i couldnt want a sequel to this more than any other game. typical nintendo. if it hadn't got cancelled for ps2 maybe we would have a sequel. i guess we'll never know.

The way you have changed my name into an insult is absolutely hilarious. It really is.
And if you like Skies more, fine, its a good game. I don't care.

This is what I think...
Skies of Arcadia > Tales of Symponia
Tales of Symponia = Baten Kaitos
Skies of Arcadia > Baten Kaitos
Although they are my most fav 3 games on the GC apart from MK:DD and SSBM.

i finally got skies of arcadia today. I am upto the bit where we go back to pirate isle and the captain (father is calling the guy and tells him to bring the girl with her). Hopefully it gets better along the way. I bought this game mainly because i think pirates are really cool so i hope theres more to the pirate side as well.
Next on my list seems to be
tales of symphonia from all the great reviews but i may order this from the usa as its only 20 dollars (£13).
After that baten kaitos, the only thing holding me back on this is the card battle system, i bought metal gear acid for the psp and hated the card crap so is this a good card system.
After that is resident evil 4, i just hope it becomes players choice so i can get it for £20 :)

You'll love it, like all RPGs it takes a while to get hooked but you will. Once you meet Drachma, the storyline kicks in.. awesomeness. Valua. The Delphinus.. Dude just me writing about it is making me wanna go play it again :)

The card system takes a while to get used to, but it is a change and does work.

I don't know if you'll believe this, but I've actually only realised you're name sounds kinda like "gimboid". :) Oh well.
No offence meant, honestly. I just get all defensive over Skies. My baby it is. *Strokes picture of Fina on the box*
Tales is a great game, although its less well rounded. Skies to me just seems more "complete" if you know what I mean. Then again Tales has Sheena, so I can't really complain. Both great, we just disagree on which is greatererer.
