Dragon Age: Origins.....

Is finally completed! I'm so glad to finally finish this medicore title, but what was even sweeter is that my game glitched, so it gave me both achievements for completing the game....

GUARDIAN HEROES!!!!!!

Yes, Guardian Heroes was just announced for XBLA today and all I have to say is.......FUCK YEAH! Gotta love old-school beat-em-ups, and plus it has RPG elements, and plus it's made by Treasure (who made Gunstar Heroes and a bunch of other great titles). I hope with this Saturn game coming out, Sega decides to release more Saturn games (looking at you NiGHTS and Panzer Dragoon Saga)

A Dragon Age Review...

I'm going to keep this review short and sweet....

I picture Bioware sitting in their office, deciding a excellent game to make. They couldn't think of a new combat system, so they just recycle the combat system for Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, but for some odd reason, it feels unpolished. They also invest a good amount of time into the story and voice acting (which are both excellent), but decide that the graphics don't need to look nice (compared to Mass Effect).


I really think this game would've been better as a movie or a novel



Oh and I decided to pick up Star Ocean: The Last Hope, I'm wishing myself good luck on getting achievements on this one....

Castlevaniaa

All I really got to do today was buy Castlevania: SotN and the new Beastie Boys album. That's about it

I am one busy guy

I haven't had any time to play today, but I'm managing to catch a playthrough of Trouble Witches Neo really quick, and I also ordered a DVD set of one of my favorite shows today Azumanga Daioh, so that made me one happy person.




And no, I still haven't finished Dragon Age: Origins yet.....

Playing shmups and finishing a so-so RPG

After doing some exciting work at the air show today, I came home to play some Trouble Witches Neo (terrific shmup by the way) and I have found something out; playing on the hardest difficulty will hurt your eyes, as there are so many bullets and enemies on the screen at once. After playing that for a while, I decided to start playing Dragon Age: Origins, which I hadn't touched in a week or so. I'm getting close to the conclusion of the game and I must say, while I enjoyed the story, the combat was rather boring to me. It reminded me of Star Wars: Knight of the Old Republic, but less polished I must say. What were your guys thought on DA:O? Did you enjoy it, or was the sequel (DA 2) more enjoyable?


And by the way, here's footage of a game I'm keeping my eyes on

Currently Playing: Trouble Witches Neo & Dragon Age: Origins (hopefully should be finished with this one by tonight)
