Skies of Arcadia

Skies of Arcadia is one of the best games released for the Sega Dreamcast. It's a fun role-playing game with flying ship, floating islands and Sky Pirates. What's not to love?
An enhanced port was also released for the Nintendo Gamecube called "Skies of Arcadia Legends". It added some new optional quests, a new character  and a variety of other tweaks. The game didn't sell real well originally (either version) which is quite a shame as it's really good. It also means there's not much chance of a sequel. :-( As both games are long out of print, you'll need to hit up Amazon.com, eBay, craigslist, garage sales, thrift stores, pawn shops, or your local used video game store (such as Gamestop) to find a copy. I managed to find my copy at a local pawn shop for $10 but if you keep your eyes open you never know where you might run across it. Good Luck!
