It's official! I've finally played through 1 storyline of Front Mission 3, Emma's. I've racked up a total of 51 hours. This game was excellent! I love the SRPG's and this has been one of my favorites. A bit convoluted on the storyline but nicely done with the network / email system available. You really got to know every character that joined you and everything about every country, city, organization and equipment available due to the vast knowledge the Network gave you. I look forward to a 2nd playthrough on Alisa's story but for the time being I am happy to move on.

Now... what do i play?

I've started playing Arc the Lad (for Playstation). I like the strategy elements built into the battle system. There's very little to do outside of battles so far, i'll know more as i dig into it further. currently the story is just getting started so i'm about at that usual rpg time of 3-5 hours

Okay, that's insane... i lost to the final boss last night. I thought i leveled my jobs high enough but i was definitely shy by a long shot when i got 1 hit killed... Maybe i'm missing something, i'll have to take another swing at the final boss in the coming weeks.
