....oh well... back to watching Pascal do stupid things that make me smile.... I love when she goes for a high five at the end of a battle... makes me happy
Pascal is my fave character oddly enough.Her quirks are silly but welcomed

Namco have been doing it for a while. They primarily do it with their iDOM@STER series. New songs are around $20, costumes $18, accessories from $3-$10.
Anyone remember Ace Combat 6? I had it for 2 weeks before 20 jets were being sold off as DLC at around $3-4 each on the Live marketplace.I read an article a few months later stating that Ace Combat 6 had in total around $120 worth of DLC,mainly other jets and some decals. You can see why the name "Scamco" got around fast.

Innocence R is a fun game, but really lazily done. The graphics are incredibly drab and boring - this extends to more than just technical facets such as detail and texture clarity; character's faces have only one expression on their models (they have nothing but the generic smiley face, and an open mouth model for when they speak), so when they need to do something more expressive the game goes into 'skit mode,' which is itself a problem because characters only have a few expression in skit mode, too - you have smile-face, serious-face, and comically-overexpressive-face. Even Tales of the Abyss was better in this regard. Speaking of skits, not all of them are voiced, which is a huge strike against Namco, since this is on hardware that dwarfs the PS2's architecture.
Also, the new gameplay system pales in comparison to the old. THe names are the same (the Style System) but the new one is basically a carbon copy of Vesperia's 'learn techniques and equip them!' gameplay style whereas the old DS system was almost akin to the FF job system, where each 'style' served a specific purpose, allowing you to make each character into a fight/spellcaster/tank/etc. The new system is all around, much less flexible and really not as great.
The battle system is better because you get four in-battle characters and stuff, but it's a REALLY lazy effort by Namco.
Wow nice work on screwing that up Namco.

Just started season two of Code Geass and so far the twists and turns have absolutely kept me riveted to say the least. The Little Lady and I watched Princess Mononoke night before last, I enjoyed it but thought it a tad drawn out, she loved it!
Code Geass R2 is sweet...except the pace after Episode 12 never felt right to me. Anyway right now I'm on Tegami bachi and broken blade.Awesome shows,both are unique in many ways.
