I can't believe you managed to insult both Metroid Prime and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night in the same day.

Hmmmmmm? Oh no, I liked SOTN. I just can't say it is the best game ever like some people say.

Man, I was getting ready to try and play some of the games on my backlog, but picked up Final Fantasy Tactics A2 instead. I've put another 15 hours into the game since Saturday, for goodness sake! I also have to say, I think this game has done the most to annoy me, yet I still enjoy it. It's as if the developers took everything that could possibly annoy you in a strategy game, and threw it on top of one of my favorite battle systems ever. Darn you Square Enix, just darn you.

I just beat Knights in the Nightmare and am finally back on track! But believe the hype; it's one of the most uniquely awesome games you'll ever play.

Once I figured out how to do all the complex stuff like optimizing Transouls (I seriously sat down and played this game along with my trusty TI-89) and clever things like using a Duelist to move into position one round and then switching to a Warrior to use his skill to obtain some ridiculously rare item, I realized the sheer genius of this game. It all clicks now. I can't wait to do my second play through of this.

Now it's time to finish Star Ocean (I'm right about to start disc 2) and then I'm thinking I'll start Phoenix Wright when that's done

It seemed more complicated than hard, from what I played. I imagine once you understood all the intricacies of the game, the difficulty would be reasonable for that type of game.

Okay, double post time (gasp!):

Today I decided to go ahead and start Phoenix Wright even though I haven't finished Star Ocean. And damn is this game awesome! I played it for like 5 hours straight today. The characters, the style...it just all flows so well together. I feel such a sense of accomplishment when I find an inconsistency in a testimony. I just think it's funny, though, that none of the witnesses ever get busted for perjury cause they pretty much all lie multiple times in court... But I'll try to complete this by September 4th.

Told you it would be awesome

This is the first game I presume? I finished it in a few days, it's very short. But like Portal, the length is an advantage because it doesn't grow stale.

So I decided, *bleep* Megaman for now, I went back to playing MadWorld. I just have to say this: Those undead *bleep*ers with scepters, they're annoying as shit. They touch you, you die. *bleep* OFF TWATS

Oh man, I'm not going to be doing a lot of gaming as of now. It's 07:41 AM and it's the first official day of school again and already have a shitload of work to do.

*bleep*ing tired as hell
