FF Tactics, start of chapter 4, going back to this soonish probably, may start over since it was a few years ago - frustrating
Crisis Core, Nibelheim, going back to this soonish maybe - pretty fun
Persona 3 the Answer, definitely going to start this over since I gave up several years ago - I like it better as a dungeon crawler than DDS
Nier, beat the first ending a few months ago, gonna go back soon - Yoda: this game is not even remotely repetitive unless you're trying to do (almost) everything in one playthrough, solid action game and top notch in everything else
Digital Devil Saga 2, beat #1 and near endgame of 2 but holding off because I feel like killing hordes of enemies - a bit too preachy at times, and that encounter rate is dumb but it is really impressive
Sengoku Basara 3, first Ieyasu ending, I'm surprised it was so well told having grown up with Devil Kings and that came off as being minimalistic - excellent action and creative mission design

Shuffle Mostly dumb, until it gets genuinely interesting at about episode 12, and that ending was pretty memorable.
Chaos;Head Really excellent horror/mystery until it drops that around episode 5 and reveals something it from early on that it made me forget about from episodes 5 to about 11, has a plot twist that blew me away in episode 10 iirc; everything else seems bland looking back on it.
I was gonna import the vn versions of these first but I already watched that last one so I decided to watch them now anyway, also to contrast them with the series above.
Steins;Gate It really had me hooked for the last 13 or so episodes, it has an excellent english dub but the script seemed forced sometimes with nerd references, time travel element was too back and forth at times, certain characters felt underdeveloped and then they died but time travel helped develop them; very neatly woven and intricate overall.
Robotics;Notes Only seen an episode of it so far but first impressions: beautiful/vivid scenery, characters are amusing to watch, they strike me as being really fun to spend time with.

The reveal of the actual painting at the end is what really sells it to me. So awesome.
Indeed. Most awesome scene. I'll probably check out that movie now. You never seen it? I actually prefer this one. or this

I never really got the popularity of that thumbs up/down thing, it seemed even worse than giving out review scores, as if any movie movie could be summed up one way or the other but never in between. And it was pretty ironic that he claimed movies were often art for being emotional, and he never saw that in video games.

big, beautiful screen Does the PSV require much touch screen use? I've tried playing with it at retail displays and it seems like the only way to choose a game is to use the touch screen, and without a stylus I think it would have fingerprints too easily and need cleaning.

Same here. The moment it's announced, I'm going to preorder whatever super giga megma assault battery rapid wizard's companion ultra uber sentinel N7 dragon edition they have. What if it just has a standard edition with the game?
