Title: Best portable loot?
Post by: jiji on July 01, 2008, 11:49:28 AM: I tried this topic over at GAF and ended up with responses like FF:CC and FFTA2. (White Man's and other intelligent responses were appreciated.) So I'll pose the question here: What's the best portable substitute for Diablo's lootin'?

I remember folks around here enjoying Alien Syndrome, iirc. I did try Rengoku 2, and that was pretty strong, but the level design didn't keep my interest for very long.

Candidates from the other thread: Bounty Hounds, MHF2, GBA LOTR RotK, uhh, PSX-PSP Diablo.

Dungeon Siege Throne of Agony on PSP. I love it.

Lots of fun.

Post by: Van Cruncheon on July 01, 2008, 09:11:26 PM: hm, there's not one truly great portable loot solution, but untold legends 2 is passable if a bit oogly. throne of agony is tolerable as well, as is dungeon explorer (once you get past the huge spate of lame tutorial missions).

Post by: jiji on July 02, 2008, 02:19:05 AM: Okay, PSX Diablo (by way of popstation) is pretty solid. The sound's been downsampled a bit, as expected, and a lot of animation was chopped, but they made it work really well. And it's Diablo! :punch

Dungeon Siege seems inoffensive enough, except for the awful cutscenes. It feels more interactive than the PC games, which is a good start!

Post by: bork on July 07, 2008, 02:04:33 AM: No love for Untold Legends? I thought the first game was decent for the time, and second game seemed like a nice improvement.

there is a simple series Rogue clone for PS1 - The Dungeon or something like that. My memory seems to think it was decent... perhaps i should pop station it and find out?

I have that one, and it's actually a really solid direct clone of Rogue. It's stripped-down, hard, and fun. It's even got equipment-/item-naming.
