    [V4] What's Your Mood?

    Mood: Bored Reason: I've got nothing to do this morning. I'm going out in about an hour, and I'm not in the mood for my PS3 to fuck me around this morning...I think the blu-ray reader thing is fucked; it doesn't read discs half the time anymore. £70 for repairs which might extend its life by...

    What game did you buy last?

    I gave in to temptation and ended up importing Sorcery Saga: Curse of the Great Curry God off eBay. It was that or YS Celceta, and that has a concrete release date for next year over here, whereas this just has "early 2014" and I don't honestly feel like waiting for it anyway. As a general rule...

    Anime Last Anime You Watched

    I'm watching NouKome at the moment. Only because the full title (which translates to something like "My Mental Choices Are Completely Interfering With My School Romantic Comedy") amused me, and past experiences with anime with ridiculous titles - Chuu2 and OniAi, for example - are that they can...

    Nintendo [3DS] Bravely Default: Flying Fairy

    I've got this for Christmas...which is still over a month before the US gets it, which pleases me. It's nice for us to get something months ahead for a change. Although I wasn't overly impressed with the demo...looks like another overhyped case to me. I'll give the full thing a chance before I...

    Playstation Tales of Symphonia to Get Possible PS3 HD re-Release

    Anything but another sequel, for the love of everything sacred. JRPGs don't need sequels. On another, more relevant note (because this is utterly irrelevant and should have its own topic - just saying) I preordered the special edition. Unlike Xillia's collector's edition, this one actually...

    Lightning Returns Buying Lightning Returns? XD

    The only real reason I can think of to buy this is to experience a definitive ending to this sorry saga...although of course, if you haven't "played" XIII-2, then you don't really need to, because the one good thing that can be said of FFXIII was that it was self-contained, and didn't need the...

    [11/12] Final Fantasy XV english VA revealed online

    Given Square Enix's recent voice "talents" I'm not going to hold my breath here for anything even remotely resembling quality voice acting...but I suppose it's better than the standard JRPG/anime crew that Namco Bandai recruits for every single game in the Tales series. Variety is nice...if...

    You mean the PS4 has FIVE whole games now?! :gasp:

    [27/11] Lightning Returns Had The Lowest Opening Sales Of Any Final Fantasy XIII Game

    In the perfect world, FFXIII wouldn't exist :lew: I'd hardly call LR: FFXIII "unique" in any sense - we've seen the pretty graphics, the awful gameplay, and the same bland, one-dimensional characters twice before recently, and they weren't particularly groundbreaking the first time either. As...

    [27/11] Lightning Returns Had The Lowest Opening Sales Of Any Final Fantasy XIII Game

    You don't need to experience something in order to know it's going to be a bad experience. You've never tried jumping in front of a train or stabbing yourself in the eye with a fork before, have you? It's essentially the same thing with the FFXIII trilogy. These low sales please me immensely...

    Suggestion User Ranks

    We should be able to buy custom ones in the shop. Because I am far too amazing to have a plain userbar. I want something pink. With hearts.

    [19/11] Final Fantasy X Release Dates Announced - Finally!

    ...so much for this year, eh Square Enix? Some news on the Vita releases would be nice, as well. If they've got any sense - which of course, they haven't - they'll release them before the PS3 versions, so they actually generate some sales.

    Interest Check Secret Santa / White Elephant

    A bit quieter? Understatement of the year :lew: I'd be up for White Elephant, even though I know I'll wind up with a username change again :hmph:

    agents of s.h.i.e.l.d

    I'm enjoying this more than I thought I would; it's got Joss Whedon written all over it. The "Scooby Gang" made up of nobodies brought together by someone instantly recognizable, the sharp, witty yet often appalling "so bad it's good" dialogue, and the excellent pacing that means episodes don't...

    [V2] Last Movie You've Seen

    Thor: The Dark World I quite enjoyed this, to my surprise. Fairly well-paced plot, good fight scenes, a little bit of humour here and there for good effect, and bam, a movie not quite as good as the original, but still better than any of the X-Men or Spiderman movies. I don't see what the fuss...

    Would you do everything over

    I'd love to redo my life. It'd give me the opportunity to make exactly the same mistakes again, only faster, and with a greater feeling of self-irritation once I realized that I'd fallen into exactly the same pitfalls again; those ones I was trying to undo in the first place by redoing my life...

    [V1] What are you currently playing?

    I'm trying to plat Mass Effect right now...just need the Biotic power usage, Sniper Rifle kills and Level 60 trophies and I'll have it. Will probably take me a couple of hours or so; my Soldier is Level 58 and I need to gain a couple of levels as an Adept to unlock Lift so I can spam...

    Anime Pokemon: the Origin

    I've seen the Manaphy movie...it was marginally better than the awful Lucario one (seriously, I HATE that movie) and on-par with the Deoxys one...but nowhere near as good as the Jirachi one, which almost made Max a tolerable character. May did have more screen time in the Manaphy movie, but as a...

    Anime Attack on Titan

    I'm still not sure what all the fuss is about, to be honest...it's more about the implication of violence than actual violence that makes this a moderately violent show. I have to admit I love the soundtrack, though, and I have cackled like a maniac at points as people have been brutally...

    Anime Pokemon: the Origin

    Given the very presence of Max and the fact that May was frequently shoved to one side, I would hardly label the Advanced seasons as "fantastic"...well, the Battle Frontier had its moments, even if that was when they switched the dub voices to be what they are now...but eh. ...but they're...
