Raki Battle Video and Early Opinions on Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World

First off, here’s my battle with Raki from AT2 on the retail NA version of the game. So no patching to make it go past Defense Phase 3. Apologies for the blocking, I had massive lag from my setup, I’m really a TON better, especially with Raki.

Now, for some Early Opinions!
-Emil, please grow a pair.
-Marta, please stop being so tsundere/cliche clingy girl.
-Tenebrae and Colette? DON’T CHANGE I LOVE YOU BOTH.
-I’m not used to 90% of scenes being voiced! Also, getting tired of Laura Bailey…
-The waggle shortcuts for techs are FUN. Though I set the most useful one to Down on the D-pad cause it’s easier…

Ignoring the blog again…

Been a week already? Whoops.

I would do a review of the recently-beaten Final Fantasy VI Advance, but I’ve got bad rose-colored goggles when it comes to that game, and I didn’t even bother with the new additions. It’s a good RPG if you like the old-style, pre-FF7 types, and if you’ve played it before and like longhard dungeons, the Dragon’s Den is perfect. I don’t feel like getting the items and equips needed to go through all those bosses, since I cheesed the final dungeon with Ultima…

Also, I showed great restraint at the mall today after dropping off my laptop (screen broke). Went in the GameStop and they had Star Ocean 1 and 2, Yggdra Union PSP, Tales of the Abyss, Odin Sphere, and some other things that I would’ve snatched up, but I didn’t buy a single thing.

Mitsuru!

I got a PSP yesterday! And named it Mitsuru to follow in line with Yuka-tan (DS Lite) and Fuuka (GBA SP). I’ve added Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth, Monster Hunter Freedom, and Ratchet and Clank: Size Matters to my collection.

That last game came free with the system. Luckily it’s pretty fun.

Oh, and because GameStop had their buy 2 get one free sale going on, I picked up Tales of Legendia for free.

And before that I picked up volumes 1 and 2 of the Disgaea 2 manga.

Also! I’m going to stop buying video games for real this time! I have 101 that I need to beat, which is exactly 50% of my beatable collection. Though that 101 doesn’t count AT2, Prinny, or Cross Edge…
