I'm about 15 hours into the first one. It's very repetative but it's quite charming and just fun to pick up and play. A few people I know praised Dark Cloud 2 who don't typically play rpgs, but I'll get on that once I'm done the first.

I found out today that I may need to get my mouth wired shut because of a fracture along my cheek and jaw. That is not what ticked me off though. What ticked me off is the guy who accidentally caused it, didn't own up to his mistake and ran away. Whole Story: I was at the gym with a buddy. We had ju...

And it was just announced to be a hoax. Oh well. Just means I get to spend my money elsewhere. WOOOT.

Pretty insightful read. Also gave another perspective that answered some of my feelings about the need for "gamification". I agree that gamers are a huge resource of people with specific skills and work ethic. Namely persistant and problem solving. Jane Mcgonigal talks about this, but I fe...

I'm a big fan of the series, but I thought 4 was a heaping pile of shit. The gamecube one was the best one to me.
