Beyond Good and Evil

[A Black Falcon]

And I'm not mad at ABF anymore for not appreciating this game, and really it's one that you need to beat to fully appreciate. After such an amazing ending really the only thing I feel towards ABF is pity. Pity that he'll never be able to experience the game that way I have. I feel sorry for you, guy, I really do.

You shouldn't, it's only a decent game at best... though I'm sure that there are plenty of games which I feel that way about you about... :)

the story [yes, the story]

I truly cannot understand why anyone would say that the story is a draw for the game...

After finishing it, I got a really peaceful feeling like I'd just finished a wonderful movie and all I felt like doing was sitting there for a few minutes and watching the credits go by.

I felt that way when I finished Illusion of Gaia yesterday. Great game... short (I just got it a month ago or something and actually stuck with it, which says something when I've only managed to beat a couple of SNES/Genesis games...), but a lot of fun, and the ending was very satisfying. Sure, there was some awful, broken english (or "too direct a translation, losing the meaning" perhaps?) along the way that made parts of the plot impossible to understand, but you expect that from 16-bit RPGs, so that's okay. :) Just a good game with a nice ending.
