Valkyrie Profile! Play it, Love it, Have sex with it. Resell it afterwards and start fresh.

I love Valkyrie, but i love even more the second one, also it has the best graphics i have seen for the pS2.

Have you tried some Japanese-only old-school games?  Try Sweet Home for the NES; it's one of the best NES games I've played!

I've meant to try that one for a long time. The movie was a really poignant exploration of parenthood (especially motherhood) and the pain of loss, while also remaining scary and having creative death scenes. I'm sure the game doesn't try to convey all the same symbolism but the gameplay looks solid.

If you haven't played the DS version... her move-set differs somewhat and it always trips me up.  Her lightning counter is AWFUL, and messes up my rhythm. I can beat her but she really tears into my party; if she uses Maelstrom and you've already entered in an attack command, she can and will wipe out the party unless Kain is in the air or you're lucky enough that the attack doesn't trigger her counter.  And when I was a kid her Counter: Petrify drove me up the wall. >:(

I've played the DS version and there are some differences in the combat system as opposed to the SNES/PSP versions. I really don't know why that is...

I played the first one on NDS time after playing the second on PS2.
I agree that is one of the best graphics on PS2, and it's one of my favourite games ever.

It's VERY good.  Easily one of my favorite NES games.

I actually like that they made changes; it sets the DS incarnation apart from the other versions.  It also makes sense that they would tweak monsters because of the Augment system, but man does it result in some cheap deaths. XD

No, no, no!  :P

I love pets, but I'm also too lazy. I'd like to live still with my mom, I miss her, and she takes so good care of pets!
If I lived with her, I'd ask her if we can have one.
But with study and work, I don't think I could have a pet right now. I miss dogs too!  :'(

I'm sure the game doesn't try to convey all the same symbolism but the gameplay looks solid.

The game's graphics are very macabre. If you ever thought old NES games were never gory or at least beyond ESRB T, Sweet Home took it beyond. The enemies are just... yeah.

But that movie. Oh my god I love Sweet Home. I think I only watched it on YouTube. I love Juzo Itami's movies. I wish he wasn't just producer and actor, though. The boss fight at the end, though -- I made one of my friends watch it (out of context) because I thought it was one of the most epic battles in movie history and I liked the special effects (for its time).

スウィートホーム Sweet Home Movie - Part 5 of 5

And oh my god wow! I never knew Kenzaburo Oe was his brother-in-law! Oe's short story "Prize Stock" (or "The Catch" depending on the version) is one of my all-time favorite short stories.
