That's a good thing, the gameplay sucked. KH1 and 2 are the best games in the series regardless of button mashing issues in KH2! I've tried various portable games via emulation (Including 358/2) and they were all pretty lousy.

Really the only Kingdom Hearts games I found lousy of Re:Coded, and Chain of Memories(I kind of hate the card system. >.>), then again, Emulating games is kinda bleh, compared to playing the actual game. :P

Now I have to wait until Thursday to play GTA V because of school D: Well at least I got Rayman Legends to enjoy on my Vita during passing periods. I beat 3 of the major worlds so far. It's been an excellent experience from what I played...except for those notorious Murfy stages. I hated Murfy in Origins because he asks if you want to return to the World map for dying so many times, and now I hate him more in Legends when doing his levels.

Don't feel bad I didn't get it pre-ordered and I have to wait till Saturday to pick the game up... I've been waiting so long for GTA V that its killing me to wait longer.

...still playing Persona. I'm about 52 hours in and just got to November. I know the end isn't too far and I'm super excited. I think I know who's next... and I'm pretty nervous about how that situation is going to pan out. Still loving this game, hoping to wrap it up by next week. :D

I looked at your trophies. You just reached probably the most critical part of the game. Yes, things get very intense in the plot. Oh BTW, (possible spoilers)

Yeah, I heard about that but I don't think I have enough time to get it, so I'll wait it out for the second playthrough. I need to finish maxing out my stats right now.

Not too hard. I was very close to level 99 when I faced the final boss. Those treasure hands are broken to earn EXP. Especially if you shuffle EXP multipliers.

Finally got to take a crack at Skyview Temple in Skyward Sword. It was interesting to see that it wasn't quite a straight forest theme, but that the first half was more of a water area. I kind of groaned when I realized that there were water-level puzzles, but that feeling went away when I noticed they were only filling each room once or twice, not going full-out Water Temple. All-in-all, it was a pretty fun first dungeon. The only complaint I've had so far is that Fi could be a little more specific on the Z-Targeting information. I had to resort to GameFAQs to figure out how to fight Skulltulas when they're dangling from a thread. It would have been nice if Fi had hinted at being able to spin them sideways with a horizontal slash. I had originally thought the idea was to use a Shield Bash when they got swinging.

 

The boss fight was an absolute blast, though. I didn't have much trouble at all with the first part of the fight, when Ghirahim is unarmed, but I died once after he pulled out his own sword. Also discovered that boss fights are the absolute worst time for the shield to give out. I will say this, as redundant as Fi is throughout a bulk of the game (or at least what I've noticed so far), the boss fight tips are brilliant. I absolutely love how you have to wait over time to get more information from her, as though she's actually observing the fight and learning about the boss over time. Speaking of the boss, I liked the sword practice aspect of the fight, and want to ask, is there a way to replay boss fights like in OoT3D? I wouldn't mind getting a little bit more practice in before going into harder areas.

 

The other thing I have to complain about is how the control help screens work. They only give you the absolute bare minimum of information when you pull them up. The last thing I did in the game before stopping was the Lumpy Pumpkin side-quest, and since it had been so long since I had gotten to play the game last, I needed to double-check how to set a Beacon on my map, so I could have a bit of an easier time getting back from delivering the soup. I had to check two different guides online before finding out that it's the C button. People complain about Final Fantasy XIII coming with an entire Wiki in-game to get information across to the player, and at this point, I wouldn't mind one for this game.

Played Final Fantasy XVI the other day. It looks purty and since I like MMORPGs, it's right up my alley. (Along with Warcraft.)

Part of me is glad to hear I'm not the only one who had to get help for the skulltulas. >_> A quick thing to note since you mentioned it though: no enemies will require the shield bash, as the shield is completely optional (I actually went the entire game without one because I had more important things to fill my inventory with).

Yes, there is a boss rush mode, but you don't unlock it until just before the game's final segment. It'll still be good practice for the final boss gauntlet though.

Still doing my second playthrough of Fire Emblem: Awakening to get all the characters, kids, and better stats for all. But also started Wind Waker HD, since I picked that up today.

Playing the indie game Gunpoint. So far, it's pretty legit. I can understand why this game is so addicting. The puzzles are pretty clever.
