Probably some form of fried eggplant, rolled in spices.

Did some Söldner-X 2 earlier. Adding some PSP visual novel to that. Maybe some Xenosaga I or Ys II.

Ah, the awesomeness of Pac-Man. I never played it much as a kid (never had enough quarters to get any good at it), but a little under a decade ago, I got one of the Jakks TV Games with Pac-Man--and promptly became addicted. Pac-Man is definitely one of my video gaming favorites now, both the game and the character.

Oh, and the ghost-monsters definitely have distinct personalities. My feelings on Blinky are best expressed by Q*Bert's comments whenever he dies.

I had the privilege of meeting Ralph Baer several years ago, though I can't remember the exact year. What stuck with me most about him, and still does with this video portrait, was that not only did he still enjoy creating things with his engineering know-how, but he still continues to work on bringing products to market. Some people settle into a hobby when they hit retirement age, something they do for themselves, but Mr. Baer chooses to continue bringing his ideas to everyone. Incredible.

Blasphemy! Those are STILL awesome! :D

Some PixelJunk SideScroller, a PSP anime-based visual novel, maybe some Xenosaga.

Xav is back? I had no idea. Re-welcome!

Xenosaga I, a visual novel, maybe Ys II Chronicles.

I'm glad the game is finally available to non-importers in the West, but I still wish the original PSP title had gotten a release here, even if download-only. I definitely would have bought it a second time.

Also, I REALLY want to play Another Chronicle, but I don't know where to find a machine locally. And yes, Taito IS selling it in North America.

Bermuda Triangle, Pac-Man World, Xenosaga I?

. . . Was this why that Aliens game was canceled?
