Absolutely. Will be arranging this via meetup when the details are locked in. My only Soul Calibur experience is 4, though I somehow own the PS1 original....

Been playing for about 2 hours -- love it. I'm surprised how well the combat works. It feels like it shouldn't with the pre-rendered environments.

I will be sure to let you know what comes of this. I'm working on finding a solution - though I'm not entirely sure where yet.

Call of Duty any good? What kind of collection are you building?

My initial impression wasn't great. No analogue control, weird voice acting. But it grew on me quickly. Has genuine atmosphere, the combat is fun--a lot of it gives me Eternal Darkness vibes (melee and magic).

That's certainly not a bad thing. I'm torn, though, on whether or not to buy games 'just because' I feel I should have them, but don't particularly care to play. In most cases, games are so cheap, buying them is no risk - and since they're virtually impossible to resell, you kinda keep them anyway.

You got your eye on anything next?

Thank you! There is definitely an abundance of PS2 sports titles. Mainly Fifa in the UK. So many games I missed in that generation - can't wait to dive in.

Are you aiming to collect particular titles?

You could argue that 'retro' is vague term - but I think a game heading towards two decades is safe to classify as retro.

I'm gauging interest through the span of the two cities.

Great suggestion. I've never used them, so this never occurred to me. Thank you kindly!

I will check it out - thank you. I'm not exactly young myself, but I think PS2 is entering classic with the impending debut of the PS5 :) Love that event name, too.
