For roughly 15 years I've been wanting to get my hands on Folklore. One of Japan Studios games that I wish was remastered. (Thanks Sony for what you did, we'll never forgive you). So, I decided to go to one of my favorite sites that isnt Ebay to buy a copy and sadly they were out of stock. Charging $78 which I understand is probably a lot given its rarity and the lack of a digital version on PSN. Only then, I go to Ebay and people are selling this game for between $150-$200. Either I just bite the bullet and buy a copy on Ebay and hope it works or pray to God my favorite site gets a couple copies in the future then buy one there. This game I remember playing both the Sneak Peak and Playstation Underground demos and thought the game wasnt that bad, and its based on Irish Celtic Mythology and Folklore which was cool given my Irish Descent.

I'll be real, I'm mixed with H2: Anniversary, while I like it and I think its a great remaster for newcomers what I do not like is how the classic audio was botched. So, to celebrate some Halo this year decided to play my favorite. Sadly, I own a Xbox 360 so I had to backwards compat my Xbox copy. Good News is, its so good even emulated. Make sure if you are gonna play xbox games on 360, remember to clear your 360's hardware cache as it helps with compatibility for some games.

Its crazy, game runs at 480p30fps and it still holds up for 2004. Halo 2 was definitely my favorite childhood game and it has by far the best Halo Main Menu ever in the series.

I really, really miss the main menu's of Halo back in the day :(
