Going to pick mine up this afternoon. I was considering going to the "midnight release party" but I suspected that the "party" was just going to be a bunch of geeks waiting in line for an hour with no special give-aways or anything else cool. I asked my local gamestop if this was the case and they said yes... so... I decided to go to bed instead :p

Must... Finish... Xenosaga III. RAWR

i just picked this up because i was going to have surgery and needed something to do with my time.

i'm so sold!

i started playing it and couldn't put it down. to be honest, i did try the demo and hated it, the actual game is much more fun and i'm really liking the gambits (once i got the hang of it). wasn't sure i was going to like all the "lines" all the place, had thought that it would be a distraction at best, an irritance at worst, but i find that it's actually helpful!

not crazy about the hunts so far, so i did the first one, started on the second one and left it at that and continued on with the story line, something i'm really not that known for. i really like to lvl build, but i'm finding that i'm now more into filling out the license grid. i really like that it's totally open and allows for the development of your characters anyway you want. it's what i loved in FFX and i like to see that it's been improved on here.

overall, a fun game and something i can really spend my time on (when i'm away from COH of course) :)
