Ever managed to get that calibration screw fall out and ended up having to dismantle the tape drive to fish it out and put it back in?Disks? Newfags! I had to play games on my C64 with a Datasette.
Great if it got de-calibrated yet again and you didn't notice it until after the usual 5-10 minutes loading time.

It's (quite) instantly accessible!
There are people who brag how they spent several hundred hours on games like Fallout 3 or Oblivion. I have a friend who "finished" Obliivon some 8 times and thats on Xbox without any mods.
Once you know exactly how to progress through a game, even such epics as Dark Heart of Uukrul, Death Lord and Fate: Gates of Dawn become much smaller than the many months worth of gaming required of old.

Don't forget the Final Fantasy games where you could spend 12 hours grinding for exp (to beat the optional, completely overpowered bosses), items, rare spawns, etc. I'm more amazed at the Final Fantasy MMO wherepeopleaspies were fighting the same boss for tens of consecutive hours (a marathon, you know without sleep) in order to beat them.
Gran Turismo has 24 hour race in real time, it seems that console players have shitty choice of games so they need to make the best of what they got.

How does that even work ? Can you save midrace ?
I did beat BG 2 in two intense months though- but I was a kid then and on Christmas holidays - my gamefile was 130 hours, as I tried to finish and find every single quest.
I finished the game at least another four, five or six times, but all those together can't have taken much longer than my first foray.

Oh, did you finish Fate Gates of Dawn? Because even with a walkthrough I think it's a feat of epic proportions.
Worst part is that there are many stories of people frying their PS2 doing those races. Just like in GT3, the best prizes were reserved for the most insane grinding so those races are very tempting. But not at the risk of destroying your PS2. There's also an auto racer, it sucks but maybe it's good for a few hours if you have a 100 lap lead.Gran Turismo has 24 hour race in real time, it seems that console players have shitty choice of games so they need to make the best of what they got.

Dont thinks so. My friend told me about it, he tried to finish it between work while putting the game on pause. While on hour 16 his wife got pissed and unplugged the playstation.
Indeed I did. One of my favourite RPG experiences.
I don't see anything weird about that number.
I would if it was pertaining to a tightly scripted storyfag game.

Sweet, sweet memories.
What is the difference between the CD version and the Floppy version (on GOG)? Is it JUST the music?
