As you can see, there's a lot mediocre games on there, and I haven't had time to play a lot of the big titles that've come out in the last few months. Picking a game of the year from what I've played isn't that difficult, hands down it has to be Persona 3. Even though I think it came out in 07 in the US both P3 and FES came out in 08 in Europe. Persona 3 is one of the most impressive, memorable and moving RPGs I've ever played, and really deserves all the praise it's got. It has a slow start but once you get into it it is amazingly absorbing, the social aspect is so well written that after a while it was going through the dungeons that seemed like a distraction.
Here's to staying unemployed this year too , so I can continue to play games far too much!
Jolly good show!
360 dies, woe, despair, these emotions, they become me. Off it goes by UPS, a brave soldier going home for burial. Roughly a week later, he returns, miraculously, risen from the dead, with new motherboard and DVD drive, and much merriment was had by all.
Alack, it was but an illusion, as two days later the unit soiled itself and died again. Oh my brittle heart, how much more can you take. The lord giveth, and also he taketh away, and then he giveth back, but only for two days before it breaks again.
Top work guys, I'm glad you repaired my console so very well.
