I just finished playing OFF, some game made in RPGmaker years ago that was apparently just translated in english from french recently. It was okay, I guess. Didn't like the combat system, but the puzzles were pretty fun. The character designs were nice, too. I want to say I liked the story, but really it just feels like something I've seen time and time again but with different visuals and character names so it doesn't come across as anything special.
This game made me feel really ill. I liked it, it was well made and the music ruled but something about it made me want to throw up and at one point I actually did. No joke. So I'd recommend it.

I've been playing Metal Gear Solid 4. It was pretty much the only reason I wanted a PS3 in the first place and while I'm glad I'm finally hunkering down to complete it there are WAY TOO MANY cutscenes and the whole thing feels like a bunch of bastards taking advantage of Snake for really stupid reasons. Despite the fact that the last time he let someone inject him with a mysterious needle in resulted in his body getting more fucked up than anything imaginable he still lets a complete stranger inject him with even more shit so that he can buy guns from that man on a SNEAKING MISSION for absolutely no reason. And I don't know why there is an autistic child hanging around a sexual deviant and a diseased old soldier but this whole narrative has really overstayed its welcome. MGS is great for having the only stealth gameplay I actually enjoy but having to sit through hours of plot for like 30minutes of actual gameplay is getting REALLY fucking old. Just makes me want to play Peace Walker and kidnap people.
