Tanegashima, how are we supposed to know when we hit 15000 if you don't count? I'm not going to report you to Melf and Joe this time, but try to be more careful in the future, okay?

Anyway, you're a brave man, talking like that about Seinfeld.

Tried playing the Xbox version of The Warriors last night, but I couldn't play it for long - drive's failing on it. Need to get one of my other Xboxes out and replace it with the one I've got hooked up to the tv. That's like the third Xbox I've got where the DVD drive is dying.

It's 11:30pm and I'm burning the Pier Solar CD; yeah...

The CD finished burning, popped it in and played Pier Solar again; bootiful music, 10x better than the cart's music by miles. So good in fact, I managed to hold interest long enough to beat the first boss, which kept kicking my ass, even when I kept charging up the other characters, healing and attacking it in succession. Ending the fight with only 1 character left at 12 hp; really unforgiving, that.

you've owned the game this long and your just beating the 1st boss? Jackal needs to get some skills

Are you saying I suck at JRPGS?


......


Then yes, you'd be right. I'm OK with CT and PSIV though, I managed to get very far with both of them, Pier Solar though is different; game's mega hard. Grinding to level up takes too long, I've level up once after 40 mins of play, something very wrong there.

I've figured out why I'm finding so hard to get into; it's not just a JRPG; it's also a grinding one. This game is like Pokemon on fucking steroids; instead of going forward, battling a little and then progressing on to the next area, this game requires you to spend loads of time, battling the same creatures in each area so you can level up before you can move on to the next location - levelling up takes for ages (i'm at level 3 with ONE character and I've been playing for about 2hrs, no kidding) and the amount of foes is frickling so low, it's getting really repetitive.

I'm really, really hoping that once I get into the swing of things (which I'm starting to do), levelling up will speed up. This type of genre is not really my thing, it's a clear reason why I haven't touched a Pokemon game since the early 2000s; as much as I enjoyed playing them, it was fucking long and too drawn-out. Oh well, I'll push on.

I never got into Pokemon and have always thought Pokemon sucks.
