I was over at a local Value City store and saw two unusual PSX games that I can't seem to find any record of on the net...

1...Battle Barge:Castle Combat (name might not be fully correct)
2...Buddies (not Team Buddies, this was different)

Does anyone have any impressions of these games for me please? Battle Barge looked quite decent. Thanks.

Were they Ballerburg: Castle Chaos and Baldies?

Any pics? I've never heard of either title. I'm guessing that your not located in the United States?

I think Vig emailed me last night concerning this, and after waking up to his "Not Team Buddies" comment, which I replied to him with in the e-mail, I agree with Kristine.

THe other one should definitely be Ballerburg:

If not, and he is US based, I have no idea.

Yea, I must've made a mistake as both of those are the games I saw. I don't know why I thought Baldies was Buddies. Thanks for the corrections.

Baldies did come out in PAL (SLES-04091) in 2003. The cover is the same design as the one posted. Not sure about Ballerburg PAL though.

I referred to the incorrect names

1...Battle Barge:Castle Combat (name might not be fully correct)
2...Buddies (not Team Buddies, this was different)

;)

Of course I have Baldies and Ballerburg which both got a PAL release :D

I was thinking Baldies was one of them, but reading the 'Not Buddies' made my mind go completely blank.

I've got both of those too.

Are these two games any good? Ballerburg looked mildly fun with the emphasis on castle management.

Must admit, I was surprised that a completist didn't have Baldies as, AFAIK, It's not super-super-rare.

Baldies I haven't tried.

Ballerburg I tried just for a fluke and while it seems lik ei tcould be a great game, I had absolutely no idea what was going on with the 10 minutes I had with it.
