Thank You! :) It is cool indeed! :)

I agree 100%! The difference in picture quality between the DSi XL and the N3Ds XL is day and night. The more I play with the dsi the more I like it! :) And yes the naming does not really matches the color. What are your favourite DS games?

Nice one! :) I am actually 15 hours in into the game and just reached the 4th or 5th gym! When I finished, I will play white 2 then Soulsilver! The dual IPS screens are actually very nice! Thanks for the dsiware tip I will check it out! What are your favourite DS games? :)

@TheBacklogQuest. Ah, sweet! And yeah, white 2 and hgss are amazing games! As for favorite ds games, there's one I absolutely love! It's called 9 hours 9 persons 9 doors! Or 999, it's one of the few M rated games on the ds, and it's amazing! It's a box between sorta novel sections and puzzle rooms! I highly recommend it if ya get the chance! As for other ds games.. Pokemon conquest is a lot of fun and is sorta like a fire emblem game Mario Party ds is a blast in multiplayer and my personal favorite game out of all of them Any warioware games are always a good time! Hotel dusk is one of the most unique games on the system, so I highly recommend that And finally, Dementium the ward! It's an Fps horror game that runs consistently at 60fps and looks phenomenal for the ds! Especially on the dsi xl! If you were wondering what the most impressive title it has is, it's that!

When I seen your profile pic I instantly recognised hotel dusk! :) I played it a few years ago, it is great! Also it has a sequel! I am halfway through 999 it is a great game! I have dementia remastered on the 3DS in 3D, I have not played it yet, but it is on my backlog, together with loads of DS games... 🙄😀

@TheBacklogQuest. That's amazing to hear! I hope you really enjoy 999 it gets extremely good! And it's sequel on 3ds Virtues last reward is just as good, if not better! And yep! Hotel dusks sequel last window is fantastic and my favorite of the 2!

Great! A few more entries to my backlog! 😆 Thanks for the suggestions, the DS and the 3DS are great systems I love them both.

I love PSP! I bought a brand new piano black slim back in 2007 brand new. My PSP backlog is massive, I am looking forward playing them as there are sooo many great games. I was mainly a psp guy but believe me there are so many great games on DS as well, just a different experience!

@@TheBacklogQuest.I got the dsi so I can try the Pokémon games so my friend can stop talking about it lol

The thing is with pokemon games, that before I played my first Pokemon game on the 3DS i was like "how grown up man can play these kinds of games?!" And not long after I clocked like 40 hours into pokemon ultra moon, and currently preparig a review video about Pokemon white! :D

@@TheBacklogQuest. enjoy man I can’t wait for my memory to come soon got a 64 for h shop I’m getting everything I can I will be watching that review

Wow! I did not knew that the games are supporting analogue controls! It must be much easier to play them. It's good to see that someone else are enjoying these great old games!

Yes! I love clamshell design too! So many possibilites to have!

Oh and so many others! :) I have to make a second video about those! :) Thank You for the suggestions!

I am a big fan of settlers 2 on PC I played it many times, but the DS version is unplayble because of the bugs. :( You are right, robocalypse is fantastic! I did not heard about lego battles, but thanks for mentioning it I will check it out. And yes both Anno games on DS is also fantastic, I am going to do a second part of this video where I am going to mention these as well.

Thank You for the detailed info, I did not know about the cancelled RE game on GBC but I will look up some info on it. Regarding the Alone In the dark on GBC is not a bad game at all, except the horrible music. I enjoyed my time with it.

Really? That is interesting, I would think that they used the same soundtrack across all platforms.

Thank You! :) I am glad that you enjoyed it. :) Welcome on the backlog quest! :)

I did not know that there was a dreamcast edition as well. Probably the graphics were better than the ps2 one? I only knew about the PC / ps1/2 and game boy color version.

How old are you been when you played this as a kid? I thought that scene would be perfect to start the video, to show what the game is really like. :) I actually enjoyed these scenes in the game. There are a few, not every 5 minutes which would ruin the experience.

This was awesome when this came out! I remember quite a few good scares. I was already around 15 when this came out.

Have you played when you been 15? :) Indeed very good atmosphere, throughout the whole game. It is a good example of a game which was good more than 20 years ago and still good.

Thank You, I am glad that you enjoyed it! :)

Thank You for the constructive feedback! :) I actually bought one, not long ago as my previous one was really bad. So either my voice is terrible, or I have to do some post processing on the narrative. :)

Yeah, I am in the same boat, just with the PS1 / 2 / 3, DS / 3DS / SNES etc library. :) Every time I think that I got all the must play games, I find a few more. :) I am glad that you found the video useful. :)

Very good idea! It never crossed my mind!

Great memories! :) These are those things which we are going to remember for a long time. :)

Now that you mentioned the "nowhere" word it gave me a chill on my spine. There you really feel lost, and it feels that the madness has took over your mind.

Thank You for your comment, and opinion. I very much agree with you, I did not played SH4 yet and SH3 a long time ago (both are on my backlog, so I am looking forward to them) Have you played SH origins?

@@TheBacklogQuest. Yes, I played the PS2 version. It wasn't a completely terrible game - just kind of unnecessary. Travis was a fine protagonist, but the character models were just awful. Lisa Garland looks about 30 years older than in SH. It wasn't nearly as atmospheric than any Team Silent games, of course. But I think that as far as Western developers have done Silent Hill games, it's probably the best out of those.

I am planning to try that one as well, I only played it a bit at the very beginning, until you rescued the kid from the burning house. I liked it that far, but that is only the very beginning of the game.

I was out of the loop about SH2 remake, despite this is my favourite SH game so far (I have yet to play SH3 / SH4 / origins ). When I first played it the story really hit me. I checked the trailer of the remake... Oh god, please do not mess this up! The gameplay looks promising, but I am curious what they gonna do with the characters...

Exactly! I enjoyed the old era, but I would not go back and give up what options I have today. I still can enjoy old games if I want or even new games on a go with a handheld.

@@TheBacklogQuest. I love to play new interprations from old games like Alex kidd remaster Monster boy Did you played then? It Transport me to my childhood. I have playee almost everything in all possibles consoles. Today I have 880 games (ps4+ps5). I know nearly everything...

Is the second one worth playing? I heard that because the combat has been changed, it killed the fun part in the game. However I am still considering playing it as I really enjoyed the first game. And yes a remaster like the Resident Evil 2/3 would awesome!

@@TheBacklogQuest. The second one is more survival horror than rpg.

Sounds good I probably give it a try!

That's cool! :) How is the second game? It is worth playing? I heard that the performance is not that good compared to the first game.

@@TheBacklogQuest. it’s great as well at least you can get out you’re car which you can’t do in the first game and that last mission isn’t that hard

@@racerja3173 That sounds good! I probably going to give it a try!

Thank You! That could be the reason, why I was struggling! I probably missed some chances earlier in the game.

@@TheBacklogQuest. no problem! It’s a common thing that happens to first timers. I may be biased because I grew up playing this, but this is still one of my favorite games of all time, so I recommend a replay. It’s only about 15 hours, so not a huge commitment. Enjoy!

@@Robotski12 How old are you been when you played this on SNES? Did you followed any guide from a magazine? I was around 12 when I had a SNES but I did not heard about this game back then, but probably because I was playing different game types.

@@TheBacklogQuest. I was young, like 6 when I started playing. I mainly watched by older cousins and brother play. The game came with a shirt and strategy guide that told you how to get all gems

@@Robotski12 That is cool, nowadays only the special collectors set include stuff like that. :) Thank You for watching the video and for the advise!

No, the game was not hard at all, up until I stuck at the boss, becuase I did not have any more herbs, to finish the battle. If I would have, some left I would still probably trying to beat the game. :) But the more I think about it, the more I want to start a second playthrough! :)

Very true! It is completly different, than the other horror games from that era. It manages to scare you in a different level. Have you played it on the original Playstation?

@TheBacklogQuest. indeed i have. I remember dreading putting that disk in my ps1, wich i still have to this day. The school part marked me and is by far the best part in all of silent hill history

Very similar to my experience :) I felt uneasy already even at the PS1 boot logo! :) Hold onto that disc, it is already worth quite good money. :) I probably going to play SH3 or SH origins, have you played any of them?

@TheBacklogQuest. i have played SH 1,2 and 3 only. Never had the opportunity to play the rest sadly

Very well said! 👏

How old were you been? :) I play / watch lots of horror movies and games and I am in the same boat, something really have to step up to actually scare me.

I noticed the halo of the sun on your profile picture. :) I assume that you are a fan of the series. :)

I just finished it on an Emulator first time playing it, the only thing I have to critique is that it doesn't get "scary" once you finish the game and once you know all the mechanics and know the enemy types it gets old fast, but it still scared me especially when you encounter flying bird thingies. so its still scary.

Yes, I played it a long time ago, and when I played it again to make the video I remembered a quite few things but it still managed to make me uneasy. Those flying bastards are annoying becuase you can hear those wing flap noises and you keep looking around where are they coming from.

You described the atmosphere absolutely 100 percent correctly! :) I have not played SH3 yet, but now I am looking forward playing it! I played SH2 on PS2 when it came out, and that was an experience... Damn... "It doesn't matter who I am. i'm here for you James! See? I am real!"

I would say, if you use an emulator and upscale the graphics up until 4k (this is the quality which you can seen in the video) the game is very good. If you have not played yet, give it a try! The thing with the remakes is, that it can be really a hit or miss. It could be fantastic or a proper failure, there is no middle ground. But yes, I really would like to see a modern proper remake of the first game.

How old are you been playing it? It scared me at 17, as a kid it would terrify me! :D You mentioned the Silent Hill 2 remake, I have to check how is that project going, as SH2 is my all time favourite SH game. The story is really disturbing...

@@TheBacklogQuest. I played it when I was still a teenager (around 11) and it was in a dark room on a small monitor,. You can imagine the experience :D SH2 is indeed a masterpiece, especially when you dig into some things like the symbolism of monsters

11... 😱😀 How many nightmares did u have? :) To be honest I never really made any background research on the monsters of SH but I probably going to enter that rabbit hole. :) Have you played SH4? It is on my backlog but I am not really sure if I would love it. It looks very different from the other entries.

@@TheBacklogQuest. SH4 was really good I really enjoyed it, I want to tell you more but I'm afraid I might spoil the story. But I'd highly recommend it for any fan that enjoys the earliers SH !

​@@TheBacklogQuest. I used to watch my dad play this game when it came out, which was in 1999, so I was 7. Yes, it was absolutely terrifying back then, as there were no video games that covered these themes. I was already playing Resident Evil by then, but Silent Hill was just so much more serious and dark. My dad had this surround sound system and a big screen TV that was pretty top of the line for the 90s, and once the town got dark after leaving through the house, I damn near had a full blown panic attack. There was nothing like this at the time besides RE1, and RE1 was kinda on the cheesy side, even as a kid.

Yes, unfortunately my current microphone is quite bad. :( Thank You for the feedback, I actually just ordered a better one, which I am going to use for my videos in the future.

Thank You for the suggestions, I definietly could show those things, I take a note for my SF2 review! :) I don't know how I missed the ninja, I spoke to everyone in every town but it seems probably I missed a quite few things. What do you think about the paladins in the game? I don't know if I messed up something but they always hit 1 damage and it is quite frustrating. If I remember correctly I was using lances with them. Also, have u played shining force 2? I heard that a lot of things has been improved in the second game.

Thank You mate, for the feedback and for the suggestion, i am going to check it out! Actually I just ordered a proper microphone as my current one is bad, I also noticed that the audio quality must be improved a lot. How is Endwar going on psp? :)

@@TheBacklogQuest. This game is hard. I ended up downloading a 100% complete save to help me read through the story. The Russian campaign takes a big left turn near the end there, huh? Suddenly you're defending a peace conference and President Ivanoff is a War Criminal. It's strange. I might have missed something.

The game is really challenging. I had to restart multiple levels to see how the enemy will attack / move their units and use a different strategy on each stage. Regarding the story I think the developers wanted to make a better ending or something. I am playing Red Alert 2 currenty (i have not played it back then) and the story is similar, at the very end in the soviet campaign you rebel against the evil Yuri.

I am glad that you enjoyed the video! :) Did you went for a different route for the re-playthrough regarding the different ending? And did you found anything new / surprising in the second run?

Now that you mentioned, the atmosphere is much more darker and depressive than the modern fallout games. Especially in Fallout 4. This game does not have a radio which keep playing cheerful music from the 50's just a grim background music all the time is much more creepier. I should mentioned this in the video. :) Anyway, will do in my fallout 2 playthrough. The UI is not bad at all. Yes it is aged but once you get used to it, it is perfectly fine.

Thank You! :) I am glad that you enjoyed it! Make sure to check some beginners guide before you start to play, it will make your first game much easier. And make sure to save often! 😀
