I'm planning on getting Dante's inferno soon, for my daily douse of far - fetcheness.
You should, it's a lot better than most people say. Also, I hate when people say it's a God of War clone, of course it's a GoW clone, that doesn't mean it's bad, does it? Sigh. But yeah, at least give it a chance, much fun.

Fuck God of War, it's the most overrated piece of crap ever. Oh wow two-button combos and quick time events are so original, truly the reference standard for this industry!

Say that when the holiday puts you behind on your bills for about two months.
My dad didn't work last year for health reasons and my mum hasn't worked for years, so we were very poor all year. By this time last year, we were all but out of money. We weren't sure what e were going to do about Christmas.

Christmas is usually quite a drain on our money stash due to the size of our family. Rather than spending a whole lot of money we didn't have, we did the smart thing: each person recieved a gift that cost us $2 AUD, apart from a select few (no more that 6 people recieved $10 gifts).

Honestly I enjoy the present giving aspect of Christmas the least, it's so much stress and such a waste of hard earned money, I could totally do without it. I love the food and the music the best (Trans Siberian Orchestra <3) Listening to Christmas music with a glass of wine in my hands while looking outside at a glistening hill of snow is my idea of heaven.

But the story is good and I found the first two really addicting. However, people do have opinions.

I revisited Oblivion to realize... why the hell did I stop playing it, my god, it's such a good game. Now I'm dancing back and forth between that and DA:O. Speaking of DA I had to restart the game because apparently fiddling with the dev console makes all the AI on your party have a tantrum and not do anything.

Perhaps, but going two months behind on your bills because you want to buy some toys seems a bit strange nonetheless.
Again, it's not just Christmas. Abbey and April's birthdays are right there at the same time.


On to Comic Jumper: This game is fucking amazing. It has more charm and humor than any game available on Live Arcade. I mean, your special move calls the developers of the game, who in a live action sequence clear the screen by karate chopping and kicking all of the enemies off of it.

It's soooooo much fun. But be ready. It's also really fucking hard.

I used to have this old Digimon game on my PS1. I was terrible at it, and didn't understand it one bit, but i still enjoyed it somehow. I should probably dig it up again, and actually make some progress.

I dunno why everyone found I Wanna Be The Guy so hard, I beat it pretty easily.

Granted I had watched a Lets Play pretty extensively...

I played through the demo and only found myself challenged at "the driller" and the related secret area, which I couldn't reach.

I'm going to download FFVII tonight and spend several hours on it tomorrow. It should be fun.

I love the battle system in FFVII. The game's a little slow right now, but I recall that from my last playthrough.

The music is amazing, and the battle theme brings back scores of memories.

Also, you have to dress Cloud up as a girl.

Ok, here goes:

Rayman 2,

Dragon Quest VIII (I'm ~30 hours into this. I should finish it some time in the next year then spend a few more years finding stuff every now and then)

FFVII (Which I bought yesterday and have clocked 6 hours on)

The Bouncer (I'm playing it through every now and then. I'm planning on finishing it as many times as I need to to get every character to S rank. I think it should be around 12. Good thing it only takes around 2 hours.)

Rayman

Metal Gear Solid

Crash 2

BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger

LittleBigPlanet (again, because I lost my save)

Red Alert 2

Project Scarlet

Quake 3 (lots now, as it's only ~6 month to the comp.)

I know I've forgotten some stuff here. FFVII is priority on the PS3 right now. Project Scarlet is where I spend most of my time on my PC.

EDIT: I'm planning on buying BlazBlue: Continuum Shift and Castelvania: LoS soon, too.
