Playing through Bully: Scholarship Edition on Wii. Excellent game--I wish I had played it sooner.

Just this minute completed Persona 3. God, long game was long.
But jesus christ was it insanely AWESOME. There were a lot of elements about it which were repetitive but the whole style and substance of it was incredible. The characters were fantastic (other than Ken who I swear to God has the shittiest voice in a video game ever), and the battle system was fun. I kind of disliked how easy the final boss was, though. =( At it's best, it could only do about 60hp damage to any member of my party... and considering my MC had 999Hp and the rest of my party were around 500-600hp, that was nothing. Still, I guess it should be considered when my Party are all 90 to 99, but the way the story built up the final battle made it feel incredibly unwhelming. Perhaps I was too overleveled, but I think RPGs like this should have their bosses more comparable to the main Party's strength, so that no matter what level you are it should be a challenge. As it was I felt... cheated. (lol Takaya died in one turn without doing any damage to me 8O) I'll give the final boss this, though: It had an asskicking design and god damn was it persistant. Cheesy ending was anime cliche cheesy. On the one hand it makes me despise P3 but on the other I have to consider how the whole game and half of its gameplay mechanic was based on it, so there isn't really much to complain about it. I just wish it could have continued to be as different as it was for the rest of the game in terms of the story not fulfilling such cliches. Still, can't complain about some of the best 69 hours of my life. AIGIS <3 <3 <3

**nods sagely**
The final boss was more of a chore for me because I chose to face it right away instead of grinding character levels to the 90's, and consequently was much more in awe of its ability to beat me down. I was literally cursing at the screen, I tell you. Played again a while back before the PS2 went kaput and noticed how insanely easier that last fight was once your levels averaged 90. I agree it's a shame, and yes I think the boss should have been pumped up if you managed to hit Level 99 (much like FFVII did) since its so easy to dominate the fight. Well, there's the optional boss to consider but I doubt you'll want to play the game again so soon just to fight it. EDIT: Oh yeah. Picked up Fire Emblem Path of Radiance earlier. I neglected to dwelve into the newer console versions because I thought the GBA games would sustain my appetite for Tactical Medieval Strategy: Fire Emblem Solid. Oh ho ho!.. but never mind my ignorance, I can't believe how hard it is to find new GameCube games these days. All of the brick and mortar shops have dumped their GC titles for newer (but not necessarily better) stock. Online wasn't much better, and anything even remotely rare (like, oh, FIRE EMBLEM) fetches top dollar on auction sites. Fortunately, I found one used copy for 25 bucks at a GameStop (one of the few game shops in my area that still bothers with used GC games) and promptly claimed it. Shame there's no original game case or manual. Now all I need is to re-procure the Metroid Primes and perhaps REmake to round things off, and at last my GC collection will be com-ple-ted!

I've got another save file that's at about a week before the end, so if I wanted to I could always go back and try out that secret optional boss, but
for now I think a weel deserved P3 break is in order.
Actually, I tried fighting the Reaper before I completed the game whilst my party was about MC being Level 97 and the rest being in the higher 80s. I got raped the first time but the second time was pretty smooth sailing- its about the difficulty level the actual final boss should have been. However it was seriously annoying that after I managed to get the Reaper to a sliver of health, where one final attack would have KO'd him... he actually managed to connect with Mahamaon and wipe out my entire party. OHKO attacks ftl. =( I suppose if I tried again with my much higher level party he would have been a breeze but I just felt in the mood to actually finish the game. And yes, the Metroid Primes and REmake are ESSENTIAL for your GC catalogue (well, MP2:E less so, but its still awesome all things considered). As for what I'm playing now, I'm continuing away at Brawl and preparing to lose another 100+ hours of my life with Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn and Final Fantasty XII.

Skate for the 360, always disliked the tonyhawk series and never really been interested in skatebording and simply bought the game on a whim.
Best DECISION EVER, I LOVE IT. |

I'm playing the demo of Armored Core for Answer (it's on the japanese marketplace). It's pretty cool but has only one mission on it. Really
can't wait for it to come out to the states.

Yeah, my point was that I wanted a challenge but not to the point where it's ridiculous with bosses able to OHKO you.

I played Brawl while at a Gamestop and it seems decent...controlling it with the Wii-mote sucks but not enough for me to consider getting a Wii again.
Lately I've been playing FF8...I made the mistake of going to far on the 3rd disc and having to deal with the stupid 4th disc antics...trying to get Dragon Fangs for Squall's weapon but after 6 hours...no such luck. The game hates me. Oh and the DS3 controller is awesome. |

Armored Core for Answer demo, eh? Gosh how I wish I had the money to get a PS3[roommate has a 360 so the PS3 is what we need]. I take it you've played 4,
yes?
 Ownage. Period.

Playing my sister's Animal Crossing for the DS. I have to say I really despise the useless top screen. It shows the sky. Not even the tops of buildings.
Just the sky. They should at LEAST have put a map there. It's just annoying because a rip-off of this game that she also owns, MySims, uses the top screen
effectively, so it''s jarring to play the exact same game, except it's horribly crippled.

I sent Path of Radiance back to the rentals, will be sending Sega SuperStars Tennis back in the next few days and am going to rush through the Radiant Dawn
Game+ Mode starting tonight with the maximum speed/no animations.
After I send Radiant Dawn back I'm cancelling my rental service and going to kiss goodbye to my game collection by having one last ride. I'm kind of sad to note my entire PS1 collection has been lost in moves and my Dreamcast is out of comission... So the only things I'll be playing are PS2/GC era. Thinking a re-visit of the RE and MGS series is called for. I doubt I'll be re-purchasing anything Resident Evil related, I'll end up with MG:EC though... What else should I play... |

I only rented it because I didn't have the money to buy, but I sure did love it; except the controls were a little weird for an unexperianced AC player; luckily FA plays like AC 4 on steriods. The demo only lets you play one level against an armed fort (i think thats what they're called) which is pretty hard. Needless to say the demo doesn't represent the core of the game too well.
