 		I ran through Dream 5 again collecting one of the hidden flowers, with the guide I had been using leading me in the wrong direction, and once you've done the Pure run, it's nothing much avoiding getting shocked. I'd amend my advice for the last set of falling debris to say just hug the right-hand wall a little below where the beams fall from and you can fly by easily.

And you need to add the game to your Backloggery

 		For Flower, on the final stretch of obstacles in Dream 5, the guides seem to say to go as slow as you can and keep high, but I never got that to work, since if you stay high you eventually plummet whether you want to or not. On the first group of falling things I just sort of waved back and forth to try and waste time, and carefully avoided the falling debris. When the spikes come up, I bobbed up and down and kept to the right, full speed, to try and make it so I could get the altitude when I needed it. And on the final group of falling debris, I stuck up high and to the right and did a spiral pattern through the air, full speed. The last part seemed more luck than anything, but that trick worked for me two times in a row.

 		I have a very short attention span, so the game has a hard time holding my attention too long. That's my problem with it. Overall though, it's still fun.

 		Cha, really! I do very much enjoy it; got frustrated at the coin collecting level but it's a very unique subject for a game.
..although I did get freaked out when they called the character 'Mell'.

 		It does seem pretty cool so far. I didn't know it was a point-n-click adventure, which combined with a Kojima storyline seems like about the most awesome thing ever

I like how absolutely everything in the world has some comment that goes along with it, and how characters make reference to other things you've done or shown them. There's so much attention to detail.

 		Well, it's just that I tend to work better one game at a time instead of several, which is one of the reasons my Now Playing is usually never crowded. So really, before I start up Dragon Quest VIII fresh out of the box, I really should finish off another game I'm already halfway through.

For that matter I should probably also get back to Dark Cloud 2 before Dragon Quest VIII.

 		Ooooh cheaty cheaty ;3 Generally speaking they're programming errors but people now look at them as extremely rare Pokemon, it's madness! You can glitch the name a number of ways to get them without cheating (using Ditto is my preferred way in Pokemon Red) and trading them from game to game glitches them more... but to be honest they scare me. They look freaky and make random noises and kill my cartridge. Nightmares occur.

 		Loading times and slowdown, basically. 25secs to load a stage, 10 secs to skip a cutscene, 5 secs to pause/pick up an item. 360 version runs at 56FPS~ and PS3 struggles to do 30FPS. The game has no install option either!
So rather than spoil the game by playing a broken version, I'm waiting for it to be patched. If it never does, I'll just bite the bullet and play it. But until then...
