2129

Let's freshen up the chatty, shall we? Not really much happening in this post-E3 weekend, but Faylor brought us a new Release List. If you've been waiting on Final Fantasy 4 DS, then this should be a fine week for you. No, not good enough? Well how do you feel about were-hogs ?

      I'm loving almost everything about it. The fact that it doesn't pussyfoot around and hold your hand is awesome, there need to be more old-school retro games on the market. I'm on floor 7 right now, and I've already put a ton of hours in, and I think there are 30 floors total, so I'm guessing I'll be playing for a while.

    Dognose, have you ever played Shadowgrounds? There's a demo on Steam, I don't know if you'd like it because it's an overhead view instead of first person, because otherwise the game involves: Guns, aliens and combining those two thing for explosive results.

        Well its more a Gauntlet-style view so it could be easier on you... It's perspectively stable? Anyway, you shoot lots and lots of things, with lots and lots of different guns. Sometimes you have to get a key, but then they give you bigger guns

  been playing a lot of Rock Band. People on live suck, everyone quits when they're losing. One guy left the game right at the end of the song when I beat him by 1,000 points so he wouldn't take the loss. fags.

  Just picked up Sacred on Steam for 10$. Not really into Diablo, but I'm enjoying it so far. The game world is supposed to be huge and I love exploring.

  Persona 3. Managed to get to the second barrier before the full moon, but I'm pretty sure I'm under-levelled. I'm not a big fan of the entire scheduling game, and I really don't like not knowing how many fights I get to have in the tower before my party becomes tired, but apart from that it's pretty sweet.

    I'm playing Persona 3 too and mostly really liking it. The scheduling thing is funny, but I think it works for what's it's doing. If it makes you feel better, later on I feel like I have to go dungeoning too much later on... I'm like up to the 64th floor? I think secretly I kind of just want to play the high school part of the game.
    
    What level are you?

      I'm level 13 and made it up to floor 40 (the barrier's still up there). My highest persona is only level 10 though, I think that's why I had such a pain with the last boss.
      
      I think the scheduling would be fine if I had any idea how many tries it would take me to clear to each barrier before people got tired, but then I'd kinda rush through floors avoiding enemies to get to the next checkpoint and end up feeling weak on the boss.
