[General Discussion] This or that?

i'm tied between beatmania, kingdom hearts II, tales of legendia, magna carta and megaman x collection.

i've been around the predecessors for a while, so i have a familiarity of main gameplay but don't know anything about how they turned out/how long they'll last (save mmxcollection).

Beatmania - if haven't experienced it throughly yet. Bemani stuff always tend to be lots of fun with all the special controllers.

Kingdom Hearts 2 - I dislike the KH franchise so I'd say no, but that's me. Plus, everyone and their mom is likely to get KH2 soon, so you might as well borrow from a friend if possible.

Tales of Legendia - I wanted this so bad, but the desire faded away after 3 days for no apparent reason. See if waiting does anything for you and think about other beautiful options. Reviews influence me when looking at the gripes of the game (eg. Gamespot), so the mention of a different battle system, and character models turned me off after several thought sessions.

Magna Carta - I wanted this for a couple of days too, but heard the slot thing turned people off, as well as battles getting repetitive. Desire is gone, and I don't regret it.



Now if someone could help me, I'm fortunate to have stumbled here when this conflict has been on my mind for more than 3 days now:

Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories - I don't even like this game, but I've done so much research on emulation already that I've downloaded everything needed to start it up and I just need GTA:LCS to complete my dream of accessing my RPGs on the go (ToP, Rudra no Hihou, RS3, CT, etc!). I'm getting a kick out of picturing finally having the time to play multiple rpgs and finish the ones I haven't completed.

Street Fighter Alpha 3 - I had not bought any version of SFA3 ever, within this decade. I loved Ingrid in CFE, and I would really really want to play her again, against more characters.

Me and My Katamari - More crazy fun. I keep hearing about how it's actually no problem to control, despite the buttons on the right hand side breaking from traditional rolling convention. Plus, it's one of those games that I can let anyone play on my PSP and they'll enjoy it for sure.

Tales of Eternia - I saw this at a Microplay and I was thinking "How is this out yet?" If it's a Japanese import version then this is definitely out of the question. I haven't ever played Tales of Destiny 2, although I've played several of the others Tales games.

Megaman Powered Up - I have a cute fetish, and I've never played Mega Man 1 before, although I've touched 7, 8, X, X2, and X3.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
