slimequestOkay so Amazon.com had Advance Wars: Days of Ruin as their deal of the day last week, for some absurdly low amount of money, so I went ahead and got it. It was sort of low on my radar of games I'd like to try but I really couldn't pass this up, especially considering it was cheaper than a greatest hits title.
And hey SPOILERS it's fun. I've only played the first GBA Advance Wars game for like 5 minutes prior to this, but I actually like the fact that it's a strategy game but NOT a strategy RPG. I have about a million of those to play if I so desired, so this is a nice change.
The gameplay is the highlight, obviously, although WACKY TACTICAL TIPS SHOW which includes bosses walking in and giving you advice for some reason, and the female characters trying on makeup and threatening to dye the male lead's hair until he runs away. So yeah, good times!
ANYWAY, despite the fact that this should get in the way of me playing other various games I need to beat, it hasn't!
Wild Arms 3: BAM BAM BAM the dungeons fall left and right! I am pretty close to the end now, I think.
I've also been playing FES whenever I can, although it being on HARD MODE makes me die every so often and this is not good. But, Elizabeth dating sequences are the best things ever so I persevere!
Despite all this gaming, I have my Japanese oral final on Tuesday and the written final the next week, joy! And something about Spanish, it's easy peasy stuff really. But seriously, I want to strangle whoever invented the subjunctive tense. PORQUEEEEEE~~~
And now, I think I'll finish up this battle in Advance Wars and get some studying done, if the kind customers at my job will permit it.
