The month of love has been a weird one. As gaming goes I picked up the original Mass Effect, Dead Space 2 and Fire Emblem: Awakening. Mass Effect is an established classic in the RPG world, and of course it didn't disappoint. I know I'm way behind on the series, but I just don't care. The game is fantastic. Also, I know I'm late to the Dead Space 2 party as well. I picked it up just three days ago and have already beaten it, but I love it just as much as the first. Isaac's added character depth felt perfectly natural and the story was atmospheric and intense. Fire Emblem: Awakening is really good, but honestly it's only for masters of the tactical RPG genre. It really makes you work to win each and every battle and the myriad things to do in and out of battle plus the great DLC make this an absolute must own for 3DS owners, expert or no. Work has been steadily plugging along and doing it's best to break my brain. We're also about to have a massive reduction in hours, so there's that. Here's hoping that I can get that job at GameStop since it's been put on the table again. Finally, things are a little iffy between me and my girlfriend right now.
