i was actually kind of excited about the xbox one debut and watched parts of the “unveiling”. yes, the name is weird, but i get what is meant by it. i was impressed by the home entertainment integration, but while seeing lots of things that were pretty cool…i didn’t really see anything breathtaking. since the […]

dragon warrior 1 (or dragon quest 1) is a game that is very dear to me. it’s not only the first JRPG game i’ve ever played it’s the first RPG i’ve ever played period. the game came out in 1989 in the US and i feel like i got it for christmas that same year. […]

i finished halo 3 earlier this month…this would be the first time i’m playing the campaign. first impressions, i didn’t enjoy the first level so much. this would be the jungle level. i loved the look of it, but it felt so restrictive compared to the majority of halo levels. meaning that usually you’re in […]

replaying starcraft… i can play all the way through the terran campaign without resorting to cheating. i remember having a difficult time on some of the later terran levels. for the zerg campaign i used a money cheat on mission 8 because i just wasn’t in the mood to deal with the escaping dark templars. […]

i have finally completed final fantasy tactics advance. this is my 3rd time playing it really and once before i was reallyyy close to finishing it and just dropped it for whatever reason. however, this time i finally did it. total time spent was 191 hours or roughly 8 days worth of gaming. of course, […]

i don’t purchase many apps/games on android unless they’re fairly cheap. so that makes me a fairly typical android user. i made an exception to buy the square-enix title crystal defenders not because i was excited about the title, but more so because square-enix was attached to it. by purchasing it i was hoping to […]
