Long put-off second rant.

After I started this I found it hard continuing, but enough about the introspective nonsense and on with the inane rambling...

Having enjoyed JumpUltimateStars and leaving it behind me some time ago, I went on to other games. First I imported "BleachDS 2nd: kokoui hirameku requiem" and it was great. I even got a second DS (a black one this time) so I could play against my friends.The graphics was so-so, with not as smooth animation as some other, better 2D fighters.But the music was nice and the japanese voices was great listening.The many featured characters also had different fighting gimmicks, which made it easier to have more than one favorite. Though Ururu should have been made a better character :(.

I then imported the US version Lunar knights, which was kinda easy but still great fun. Lucius voice acting,when used for longer sentences, completly sucked which was just to bad. The rest of the voices were ok though, and I liked the line "May the sun shine forever in our hearts" when said by the girl in the shop. The greatest thing about the game was probably the combat, and that once you finished it, you could start over with all your items and gained levels, more RPG-type games should have that function:). (another option would have been an increase in gained Exp, Like in Tales of Symphonia)

Something I should really get to doing is to continue playing Okami. Once I finished off the first boss I just stopped playing it, It happens sometimes. Mostly with console games it seems. Since I have to acctually sit down on the spot and play it, whereas I could play the DS or PSP potentially everywhere. The three games I´ve put off playing for a prelonged period of time are: Okami, Dragon Quest 8 and MetalGearAcid.

My PSP finally saw some use again when I bought the game "Tales of Eternia".Having played Both Phantasia and Symphonia before this I knew what to expect, and I have yet to become suprised over anything in the game. Still, it´s nice with a nice story, and nice battle system and stuff so I´ll try to get back on it once I finish some other stuff.

The "other stuff" is Final Fantasy 3 and Rockman ZX for the DS. Not wanting to wait for June 1st to come I tried to import Megaman ZX, only to end up ordering the japanese version since it was cheaper and had voice acting. Again, thanks to some online walkthroughs, I´ve had minimal problems with the game being japanese. Aside from the fact that I dont fully understand the story or what´s going on most of the time XD.

As for FF3 it´s the most fun I´ve ever had with a Final Fantasy game, and i´m looking forward to playing the fourth installment once it´s released. Speaking of sequels there´s also one coming for ZX. I´m very tempted to get the japanese version of this game as well, though it´s a pain that I won´t be able to understand anything this time either. I should probably just wait for the American version and import that instead. cause it´s no way i´m waiting another six or so months for it to reach Europe.

Lastly, I was planning to import Pokemon Daimond, but it turned out to be a hastle, so I´ll just wait for the EU version. Also there may have been some games I played that I didn´t mention, like Castlevania or such. Well they ruled very much and I´m glad to have played them, so there.

That is all.
