It was ok. The story was descent in a Final Fantasy sort of way. The combat sort of got boring later in the game, because there is only so much variety you can bring in the system they were using. Sidequesting was nice and the voice acting was actually pretty solid. I would put the game on par with one of the non sucky Star Oceans or slightly below Rogue Galaxy, but it had none of the grind of those games.
War is an option whose time has passed. Peace is the only option for the future. At present we occupy a treacherous no-man's-land between peace and war, a time of growing fear that our military might has expanded beyond our capacity to control it and our political differences widened beyond our ability to bridge them. . . .

Short of changing human nature, therefore, the only way to achieve a practical, livable peace in a world of competing nations is to take the profit out of war.
--RICHARD M. NIXON, "REAL PEACE" (1983)

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired, represents, in the final analysis, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children."

In what will probably be my last finished game of 2012 - Darksiders 2. What a great, great sequel to the original.

*edit* I was wrong - Got the credit roll on Need for Speed: Most Wanted tonight.

Wrapped up playthroughs on Xcom and another run through FFTactics. Bored and sick in bed all holiday, so I started a cold run of the Mass Effect trilogy on the highest difficulty. Doing the Omega DLC in 3 right now. Not much new to play that appeals to me right now.

Almost didn't post this one here but..

My daughter got Brave on the DS and finished it in a day. Don't ask me how, she then proceeded to delete her game and was almost in tears over it. I took the DS when she went to bed and re-did the entire game for her in about 2.5 hours.

Didn't think my last credit roll of the year would be a DS game.

I was sick for almost 3 fucking weeks straight. Heavy chest cough and major fatigue mostly. No fevers or anything else really, but I was absolutely sapped. I didn't want to do anything, video games included. Hope you're better now!

Still feel like shit, but work calls and I have a trip back to Wisconsin in a week for a Warhammer tourney, so toughing it out. Wife is miserable with it right now though.
