For various definitions of "enjoy."

You see, Armored Core suffers from one very simple issue in the AC3 saga -- ACs are even more ridiculously strong than MTs (the standard enemies), making missions cakewalks, but the Arenas quite stupid. For instance, I have and am facing in Silent Line a floating AC with double grenade launcher arms that deal >1200 AP damage to even heavily-armored ACs. Meanwhile, weapon arms have 0 defensive points (how about that!) and floating leg bases are also pretty shit in the defensive department (and I can't raise this by equipping heavier, better-armored core, head, etc. parts or shields on the shoulders, because floating ACs suck at weight capacity, too!). This means that my opponent tends to do stupid amounts of damage to me with the same dual grenade launchers. They are also pretty hard to dodge (for the player) and slow to reload, meaning that my opponent can usually kill me. AIs also have limitless energy, meaning that my opponent can boost around the arena like a bee on cocaine and dodge things way too easily.

Zaltehook, my opponent in AC2: Another Age, is a dick for another reason. His AC is not superstar-level, but I can only fight him in a mission. This mission has a large number of miniature laser turrets firing on you at all times. Translation: Heavily weighted in the AI's favor.

I can see how not caring about the story can make a game less enjoyable, especially with an RPG.

"I'm kind of unnecessarily harsh with my scores"

I just noticed that. No top-rated games?!
A 5-star rating doesn't necessarily mean a game is perfect, it just means it's excellent with very few flaws.

OOPS posted it on my page first by accident.

Do you even have to ask? Mine's been shipped but probably won't arrive 'till next week

I'm very glad you're enjoying Spyro 2!

Oh man, that sucks big time! I think I'd kill myself if I lost my PS1 games, especially Grandia... Sorry about your loss, but at least it's also on PSN.

I've had Shadow of The Colossus for about 3 years, but the farthest I ever got was like the 7th Colossus, I think. It's a great game, I just hadn't gotten around to finishing it. So I restarted.

It's been a hectic week, but I'm still alive, so it's all good. How about you? Enjoying Xenogears? So many people consider it the best game of all time, but I've yet to play it.

03-29-11 Unfinished: Grandia (PSN)

Does this mean you're finally going to play it??!!

Oh, and I thought you had the PS1 version, what happened to it?

I'll get to it soon, I swear. I bought Final Fantasy II (PSP), the PSP Final Fantasy Tactics title, Ape Escape: On the Loose, and Castlevania: The Dracula-X Chronicles this morning, and I'm gonna probably beat Ape Escape first and grind through enough Battle Frontier in SoulSilver to get a Stone Edge TM for Pinsir. His final moveset is looking to be X-Scissor, Brick Break, Stone Edge, Dig.

Sorry about your laptop blowing up. Mine did too, but I think we started our work when my computer had already turned into a fireball made of plastic and shit. I'll use Backloggery comments more, but SPPf VMs and PMs work, too, since I usually just check this when I'm updating my list. Hey, I at least beat Klonoa 2...

Happy late new year to you, too, man. FIX YOUR GODDAMN LAPTOP

Rather tedious but oddly addictive with fun exploration? Sounds like the early Dragon Warrior games. Anyway, I like exploring, so yeah, I might like it.

I would get the GBA version anyway. (I don't have a SNES) Always nice having a good RPG on the go!

Congrats on beating it, first in 2011, eh?

Hey, a happy New Year to you too! I'm doing pretty good, how about yourself? As you can see, I'm playing Grandia all over again. I just couldn't help it, hehe.

Breath of Fire is on my GBA wishlist, BTW. How are you liking it?

The Great Mizuti thanks you for your kind words. And you know it's true because The Great Mizuti never lies nor tricks.

Maybe only sometimes.

Rarely.

Once in a blue moon.
