There's also Star Ocean 4, White Knight Chronicles, Final Fantasy XIII, and Resonance of Fate, if you want to take the JRPG route.

Dragon Age Awakening is standalone on consoles. And its only 40.

If money is not an issue then Dragon Age Origins.

but i read awakening is only 15 or so hours. Not really worth the 40, imo. TC would be better off just paying 60 for Dragon Age: Origins, I played through once, 40 hours and immediately went into another playthrough, made it 20 hours, but then FFXIII came out...

No. If Pokemon was no longer on DS, i would immediately sell my DS. No, wait, actually, I would smash it with a hammer like I did my two PS3s when I found out FFXIII was no longer exclusive.

[QUOTE="themountaindew"][QUOTE="iowastate"]

he got one thing correct. morals is spelled with a lower case m because there is no such thing as a great unifying Moral that is the same for everyone.

morals are what a group decides they will be.

if a community thinks that it is wrong to kill it is wrong to kill.

in some cultures in certain parts of the world cannibalism was moral because that was the societal standard.

in most of our societies that is horrifying but it is not implicitly "immoral" , it is immoral only because this group had decided it is not moral.

when another group practices what you think is not moral you have to change your thinking in order to become part of that group.

morality can change drastically between cultures.

Now with the size of the world shrinking moral standards are becoming more similar and there is less of a chance of what used to be known as "culture shock"

I felt it to a certain degree in the Orient but there was very little of it and I adjusted very nicely and was actually sad when I had to leave.

actually morals is spelled with a lowercase /m/ because its not a proper noun.

A word can be capitalised even if it isnt a proper noun. For instance to connotate importance.

I dont know if they would be considered proper nouns after the capitalisation and in the instance where they are capitalised though. My guess is no.

no, thats only done in the case of god/God, where "God" is capitalised because it IS a proper noun, the name of a deity, because the Christians were too lazy to pick out a real name.

Beyond simple morality, it's simply a common sense principle. Would you want someone to kill you? Of course not. Therefore, to ensure your security, you give up your liberty to kill another in society.chessmaster1989

[QUOTE="th3warr1or"][QUOTE="WestSideAzn"]Abraham Lincoln. Insanely good. :D

He's up there to me as the best president ever. Alternatively Teddy Roosevelt is cool too simply because my best friend was invented because of something related to him.

your best friend teddy bear?
