this gabberchiptunes o captain?
12 PM. Just woke up.
1. Want to get a 3DS and Soul Hackers, but a combination of backlog + complete dearth of any other games I would want for the 3DS makes it harder to justify.
Out of curiosity, are you interested in Bravely Default? Not that I expect every 3DS fan of RPGs to want it, but just interested to see what you thought about it. |

Quite frankly, I couldn't give a damn about Hearts and Innocence. It's on an over-priced system and the games look like hell for a Vita title. The fact Baba said he wasn't interested based on the Vita's less than stellar sales makes sense to me. If anything, I'd give up a whole boob to see Tales of Destiny for the PS2 released on PSN. Cuz hot damn.
The effigy is still a funny idea though.
And otherwise, I'm still a Tales enthusiast and the series makes me really happy as a (somewhat) reliably released JRPG that's usually/always "pretty good" or better.
I mean:
'Shadow Hearts - Dead.
Wild Arms - Dead.
Breath of Fire - Dead.
Grandia - Dead.
Mana - Probably dead.
Arc the Lad - Dead after End of Darkness (though EoD wasn't great at all)
Might and Magic - Dead
Ultima - Dead
Onimusha - Likely dead."
I completely agree with you Dice. I too would love to see the ToD remake; that would be totes baller. I like to think of myself as a Tales of fan as well, since the games scratch a very specific itch that no other game can. I was just more or less poking fun at the attitudes of some of the other fans. I certainly am proud to be a Tales of fan. :) |

Valvrave the Liberator Episode 1.
I've had this really bad itch for some flashy, new mecha anime, and this show is definitely doing the trick. If it was designed to sell toys, it's totally working cause I love the mecha designs and I want them all. So far it looks like the show is basically Gundam SEED, but we'll have to see how it plays out. The main is your average milquetoast, but he seems to grow a pair near the end of the 1st episode. I know it prolly won't last, which would be apropos given the genre, but I didn't come into the show expecting a game changer.
I just know the fanservice teacher is going to get on my nerves, but for the most part the 1st episode was light on the fanservice.

Kinda torn about the CE. Not that it isn't fantastic, because it certainly is, but I have enough crap just lying around that I don't know if a Milla statue would get any use at all. To be perfectly honest, the only collector's bonus item that I've gotten any real mileage out of is that mousepad from Agarest War 1, and I use it proudly to this day.
Are you in Europe? If so, you could always get the Day One Edition.I am not, but that is a sweet deal. Still, artbooks and soundtracks come to my place to die, unfortunately. I usually give the book a look through once or twice, but they never really sweeten the pot. And soundtracks might get a listen, but usually if there's a song from the game I wanna hear I go to YouTube. I know, I'm horrible :/. |

The thing I liked least about ME2 and 3 was flying the ship around the galaxy. It went from feeling like I was plotting jump points on my nav computer to playing asteroids or Star Control without combat. Took away the feeling of the expansive sense of space
I agree. Being ringed didn't really give the sense of being part of a vast galaxy. And I'll be honest, I hated the fuel system. It just felt like a waste of time, and served no real purpose outside of giving you something to spend your credits on. |

Love Hina. I got the manga back when I was 15 and fell in love. It was my gateway manga. I thought it was the funniest shit at the time, so I followed it all the way until the end. The anime is okay, but by guilty pleasure, I refer more to the manga.
Same goes for Negima. It is fanservice city in the beginning, but it really develops into its own later on.

EDIT: Shit. Xillia has me worried in that I really don't think a battle system is going to make me as happy as the pinacle that Graces reached. Made worse by the glaring flaws in Xillia's battle system from the get-go.
That is my biggest concern as well. I LOVED the graces F battle system. Going back to something more abyss-ish will really feel like de-evolvotion to a certain extent. While I agree that Graces has an amazingly deep battle system (that I'm still getting the hang of), I won't hate a return to a Vesperia/Abyss style battle system. I loved fighting in Vesperia, so even if it is a step down, I'm sure it will still be fun. |
