[Wyngale]

Has anyone done front mission 5 or namco x capcom or Metropolismania 2?

Front Mission 5 is in archive on page 100.

Is there a patch for [PAL]Dragon Ball Z Budokai 3 - Collector's Edition? If not, how do I make one?

[pelvicthrustman]

I've ported Nemesis2000's Soul Reaver 2 (PAL) codes to SR2 NTSC (SLUS 201.65) pretty much everything ported except the FMV code, which I managed to figure out on my own.

CRC: 1771BFE4

Can someone take a look at Blood Omen 2 (SLUS 200.24)?
I'm having no luck with it...

Edit: attached PNACH

If you're gonna post codes, please put them in a downloadable pnach file, since not everyone wants to find the game CRC.

Blood Omen 2: The Legacy of Kain Series (SLES-50771) 06DCCAF4.pnach

[Devina]

Awesome.

I experimented with Xenosaga 2 NTSC-U, and render issues are minimal.
Even though it probably requires some more testing, I think it's worth it so it'll be included in the next version.

Is there any patch for the original (US) Kingdom Hearts? or does it not need one...

Also how do you apply the patch?

[Devina]

Both of your questions can be answered by checking the archive and the readme in the archive.

Both of your questions can be answered by checking the archive and the readme in the archive.

I checked the read me file (why not just post the read me within the post in a spoiler ?) within the archive and went to here and I did not find "Kingdom Hearts" (see HERE too). I apologize if I am no missing something...

EDIT: also I could not help but ask... but is Xenosaga worth playing? I tried it ages ago (the first game) and I got my ass kicked... is it worth giving it another shot?

[Devina]

You need to go to the NTSC-U folder, and then the Kingdom Hearts folder.
Drag the .pnach file into the cheats folder (follow the instructions in the readme).

Xenosaga is a series which I find gets better the more you play.
For Xenosaga 1, I love the world, great voice acting, good art style graphics, and good music (although it gets a little repetitive).
The story is... good. Not great, but good. I found it extremely convoluted at times, especially when the game drops tons of terms on you (Zohar, Realian, URTV, Vector, Hilbert Effect, Gnosis, etc), and it can be difficult without some sort of guide. It's a very ambitious story, but the cutscenes are overly long (up to 20 minutes), and can get boring. The battle system is okay, but since it's a JRPG, you can expect lots of overly difficult battles. Some bosses will whoop your ass in an instant, so for the last 10% of the game, I just said "screw it" and used cheats.

I'm halfway done Xenosaga 2 (will begin 3 eventually), and I've noticed some improvements. A lot of criticism from XS1 still passes onto 2, but I find it slightly more enjoyable.
